We study the multicast capacity for hybrid wireless networks consisting of ordinary wireless nodes and base stations under Gaussian Channel model, which generalizes both the unicast capacity and broadcast capacity for hybrid wireless networks. We simply consider the hybrid extended network, where the ordinary wireless nodes are placed in the square region A(n) with side-length n~(1/2) according to a Poisson point process with unit intensity. In addition, m additional base stations (BSs) serving as the relay gateway are placed regularly in the region A(n) and they are connected by a high-bandwidth wired network. Three broad categories of multicast strategies are proposed in this paper. According to the different scenarios in terms of m, n and n_d, we select the optimal scheme from the three categories of strategies, and derive the achievable multicast throughput based on the optimal decision.

Pairwise testing, which requires that every combination of valid values of each pair of system factors be covered by at lease one test case, plays an important role in software testing since many faults are caused by unexpected 2-way interactions among system factors. Although meta-heuristic strategies like simulated annealing can generally discover smaller pairwise test suite, they may cost more time to perform search, compared with greedy algorithms. We propose a new method, improved Extremal Optimization (EO) based on the Bak-Sneppen (BS) model of biological evolution, for constructing pairwise test suites and define fitness function according to the requirement of improved EO. Experimental results show that improved EO gives similar size of resulting pairwise test suite and yields an 85% reduction in solution time over SA.
Route selection is one of the most important problems for a car navigation system. Given a pair of origin and destination, there are many possible routes. Most current car navigation systems propose the shortest path ...

This paper highlights the limited power penalty condition of OXADM that effect the number of maximum nodes that can be cascaded in optical network. If the limited power penalty condition is violated, the power penalty will become infinity. The condition for limited power penalty for OXADM occur when incoherent crosstalk multiply with the number of maximum nodes;(MN-1)L. Therefore the value must be less than 174, otherwise it will become infinity. It was found that as the number of ports and number of carriers increase, the number of maximum nodes decrease. When compared with conventional OXC device, it was found that the number of maximum nodes for OXC is larger than OXADM. This is due to large power penalty in OXADM. In addition, the accumulation function in OXADM reduces the scalability of this device. The objective of this paper is to study the limited power penalty condition of OXADM in order to avoid infinity. In addition, according to the limited power penalty condition, the relationship between number of maximum nodes against number of ports and number of carriers are also studied. Hence, the results are compared with conventional OXC device.

Today, consumers have been able to buy various items with development of e-commerce sites and so on, while it made difficult to find items suitable for the consumer's preference from many items. Because of such situation, recommendation systems that can present items suitable for user's preference have been required. When a person prefers an item, but hesitates what to do, it is an important criterion whether the person's desires is satisfied by the item or ***, we analyzed relationship between consumer's desires and preferred items by evaluation grid method, recommending items based on constructed evaluation grids. Moreover we investigated effectiveness of recommendation based on desires in our experiment and discussed about cross-category recommendation such as recommendation of item that have different attributes or categories.

Current methods of service discovery, using the same mechanism to describe both request and advertisement and does not take into account the asymmetry between the two. Service advertisement discovery is a complete description of descriptive, information-rich features, and service request description is concerned only with some of the characteristics of services, usually does not constitute a complete description of the service. In this paper, we propose to use semantic Web query language SPARQL-DL as the service request description language to retrieve OWL-S form published services. Treat the service discovery issue as query against the knowledge base. Through the experiment, confirmed that the method is practical, simple, reliable and easy-to-use.
