This paper presents a topology reconstruction method to explore better trade-off points between search and access load balancing performance in unstructured Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file sharing networks. The proposed topology reconstruction method changes a network topology in a dynamic, autonomous, and decentralized manner. The topology reconstruction is based on local threshold-based rules that use query trails, which stand for information on previous successful search paths. The scenario for the evaluation of the proposed method is that the topology reconstruction method consisting of the local threshold-based rules operates to explore the performance trade-off in the situation that new kinds of files are about to spread over a power-law network. The simulation results show that, depending on the setting of the threshold values, compared to the case without topology reconstruction, the proposed method can explore better trade-off points between search and storage access load balancing performance in the assumed scenario.

The effect of strong magnetic fields on activities of yeast cells were investigated. Experimental yeast cells were cultured in 5 ml of YPD(Yeast extract Peptone Dextrose) for the number density of yeast cells of 5.0 ±0.2 x 106/ml with various temperatures and magnetic fields up to 10 T. Since the yeast cells were placed in the center of the superconducting magnet, the effect of magnetic force due to the diamagnetism and magnetic gradient was negligibly small. The yeast suspension was opened to air and cultured in shaking condition. The number of yeast cells in the yeast suspension was counted by a counting plate with an optical microscope, and the time dependence of the number density of yeast cells was measured. The time dependence of the number density of yeast cells, ρ, of initial part is analyzed in terms of Malthus equation as given by ρ = ρo exp(kt), where k is the growth coefficient. It is found that, the growth coefficient under the magnetic field is suppressed compared with the control. The growth coefficient decreasing as increasing magnetic field and is saturated at about 5 T. On the other hand, it is found that the suppression of growth of yeast cells by the magnetic field is diminished at high temperatures.
Artificial bone implants are in relatively simple shapes for use mainly by cutting or manually. To produce a desired bone shape, we used tribasic calcium phosphate bone ash powder as the material and aqueous sodium ch...
