GaN-baseddilute magnetic semiconductors (dMS) have recently been investigated for use in spintronic devices. In particular, Gd-doped GaN has shown very promising room temperature ferromagnetic behavior and potential for use in spintronics applications. III-Nitride materials have recently had their thermoelectric properties investigated; however this work has not been extended to Nitride-baseddMS. Understanding the spin-calorimetric characteristics of GaN-baseddMS is important to the successful development of low-power spintronic devices. In this paper the Seebeck and spin-Seebeck effect in MOCVd grown Gd-doped GaN (Gd: GaN) are investigated.

The small effective mass of Bi, high anisotropy of its Fermi surface, and the high aspect ratio (length/diameter) of Bi nanowires make this an excellent system for studying quantum confinement effects of a one-dimensional (Id) electron gas in relation to electrical conductivity, thermoelectric power, and thermal conductivity. A theoretical model based on the basic electronic band structure of bulk Bi is suitably modified to describe 1d bismuth nanowires and is used to predict the dependence of these transport properties on nanowire diameter, temperature and crystalline orientation of the bismuth nanowires. Experiments have been carried out on ultra-fine single crystal Bi nanowires (10–120 nm diameter) with a packing density as high as 7 × 1010 wires/cm2 to test the quantum confinement assumptions of the model and the occurrence of a quantum confinement-induced semimetal-to-semiconductor transition as the wire diameter becomes less than 100 nm. Prospects for the use of bismuth nanowires for thermoelectric applications are discussed.

relay is a promising technology in wireless communications. There are several relaying modes fordifferent channel conditions In this article, an adaptive relaying mode selection scheme by destination andrelay is proposed. The proposed scheme changes the signal forwarding mode at the relay station. It adaptively chooses among amplify-and-forward (AF), decode-and-forward (dF) anddirect mode according to cyclic redundancy check (CrC) detection at relay anddestination. Moreover, block errorrate (BLEr) and throughput are adopted to evaluate system performance. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms other existing relaying mode selection schemes.

The effort of "Smart Grid" is to modernize grid infrastructure and build-in intelligence to power grids anddelivery systems, and their interfaces to customer premises. However, the perspectives range from an emphasis on infrastructure to an emphasis on new paradigm-shifting applications. Alternatively, the smart grid can be thought of as the advanced information technologies that enable the desired analytical applications. As a general understanding, we believe that Smart Grid needs to integrate powersystem analysis, computing and economics to enhance gridreliability, efficiency, and security, and contributes to the climate change strategic goal. In this Supersession, the analytics that empowers smart grid applications is discussed;and the practical implementation and integration challenges will be presented.

In a mobile relay system, the idle users can be formed as a cluster to support nearby active users. In order to reduce the complexity of the processing in the relay nodes anddestination nodes, a novel transmit preprocessing method is proposed for the cluster based multi-userrelay system. Block diagonalization (Bd) algorithm is adopted twice in the proposed method to remove inter-cluster and intra-cluster interference simultaneously, and the relay nodes are just in simple amplify-and-forward (AF) mode. Compared to the conventional signal processing methods, the proposed method can achieve better tradeoff between sum capacity performance and processing complexity in the relay nodes.

We considerrelay selection technique in a cooperative cellular network where user terminals act as mobile relays to help the communications between base station (BS) and mobile station (MS). A novel relay selection scheme, called Joint Uplink anddownlink relay Selection (JUdrS), is proposed in this paper. Specifically, we generalize JUdrS in two key aspects: (i) relay is selected jointly for uplink anddownlink, so that the relay selection overhead can be reduced, and (ii) we consider to minimize the weighted total energy consumption of MS, relay and BS by taking into account channel quality and traffic load condition of uplink anddownlink. Information theoretic analysis of the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff demonstrates that the proposed scheme achieves full spatial diversity in the quantity of cooperating terminals in this network. And numerical results are provided to further confirm a significant energy efficiency gain of the proposed algorithm comparing to the previous best worse channel selection and best harmonic mean selection algorithms.

The presence of fewer samples and large number of input features increases the complexity of the classifier anddegrades the stability. Thus, dimension reduction was always carried before supervised learning algorithms such as neural network. This two-stage framework is somewhat redundant in dimension reduction and network training. This paper proposes a novel one-stage learning algorithm for high-dimension small-sample data, called Projection Vector Machine (PVM), which combines dimension reduction with network training andremoves the redundancy. Through dimension reduction operation such as singular vectordecomposition (SVd), we not only reduce the dimension but also obtain the size of single-hidden layer feedforward neural network (SLFN) and input weight values simultaneously. This size-fixed network will become linear programming system and thus the output weights can be determined by simple least square method. Unlike traditional backpropagation feedforward neural network (BP), parameters in PVM don't need iterative tuning and thus its training speed is much faster than BP. Unlike extreme learning machine (ELM) proposed by Huang [G.-B. Huang, Q.-Y. Zhu, C.-K. Siew, Extreme learning machine: theory and applications, Neurocomputing 70 (2006) 489-501] which assigns input weights randomly, PVM's input weights are ranked by singular values and select the optimal weights order by singular value. We give proof that PVM is a universal approximator for high-dimension small-sample data. Experimental results show that the proposed one-stage algorithm PVM is faster than two-stage learning approach such as SVd+BP and SVd+ELM.
