The numerical simulation of the structural damage of a steel truss bridge subjected to blast loading with the aid of a hydrocode is presented in this paper. A three-dimensional nonlinear finite element model of an actual bridge has been developed based on the drawing design of the Minpu II Bridge in Shanghai. The effects of mesh size on pressure distribution produced by explosions are also studied. Through the comparison between the calculation results and the experimental values, the reliability of the calculation is validated. All the process from the detonation of the explosive charge to deck crack, including the propagation of the blast wave and its interaction with the structure is reproduced. The numerical results show the damage of bridge parts and provide a global understanding of bridge under blast loads. It may be generated to supplement experimental studies for developing appropriate blast-resistant design guidelines for bridges in the future.

In such an age of information, the talents competent for information-based entrepreneurship not only constitute the core competitiveness of newly-established enterprises, but also are of crucial importance to the success in entrepreneurship. In a bid to form a scientific and quantitative system for the selection, cultivation, use and keeping of talents for information-based entrepreneurship, this paper summarizes the abilities and qualities essential for such talents, makes a comprehensive analysis over the talents' roles in work, and eventually proposes a model concerning the talents' abilities and qualities for information-based entrepreneurship on the basis of the previous researches.

Routing in wireless mesh networks presents a great challenge due to unreliable wireless links and collisions. Recently, a new routing method, opportunistic routing (OR), is proposed to deal with them by exploiting broadcast nature of wireless networks. OR relies on the global knowledge of networks to select relays and determine priorities. In this paper, we propose a new routing scheme, OxDSR, which combines OR and dynamic source routing (DSR) and performs opportunistic transmissions with the help of the local information and the traditional route obtained by DSR. By taking the duplicates and additional wireless resource consumed by multiple ACK frames into consideration, we propose a new metric, equivalent data rate, to select and prioritize relays. Extensive simulation study shows that the proposed OxDSR is more resilient and achieves higher throughput than DSR based on the expected transmission count routing metric.

A clonal selection based memetic algorithm is proposed for solving job shop scheduling problems in this paper. In the proposed algorithm, the clonal selection and the local search mechanism are designed to enhance exploration and exploitation. In the clonal selection mechanism, clonal selection, hypermutation and receptor edit theories are presented to construct an evolutionary searching mechanism which is used for exploration. In the local search mechanism, a simulated annealing local search algorithm based on Nowicki and Smutnicki's neighborhood is presented to exploit local optima. The proposed algorithm is examined using some well-known benchmark problems. Numerical results validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Multiple physical layer rates are supported in IEEE 802.11-based wireless networks, where links can adopt joint transmission power control and rate adaptation to achieve energy efficiency. This paper studies the selfish rate adaptation behavior under throughput requirement. A round-based non-cooperative game is proposed assuming there is only one link which can adjust its transmission strategy in each unit time. It is shown that there is an optimal transmission strategy for a link, and a greedy algorithm is presented to select a near-optimal transmission strategy. It is observed that scheduling order affects the feasibility and the total power consumption. To alleviate the influence of scheduling order, pricing function is introduced, which motivates selfish links to share the channel fairly and efficiently. Simulation results show the proposed approach leads to not only more feasible solutions, but also power efficiency.

Power control can help to reduce energy consumption in wireless networks, while the selfish power control of a link may affect the performance of the neighbors. This paper studies the impact of selfish power control on the stability in wireless networks where each link is under a throughput requirement. Employing the modulation scheme non-coherent frequency shift keying (NFSK), we prove that there is an optimal reception rate and a corresponding optimal transmission strategy to minimize the energy consumption for a link with fixed channel condition, and further present a transmission strategy selection algorithm for links with varying channel condition. A round-based repeated non-cooperative game is proposed, assuming that there is only one link which can adjust its transmission strategy in each unit time and the link always adopts the self-optimal strategy myopically. It is observed that this game cannot converge in some cases, since links are motivated to move transmission power from high interference durations to low interference ones. To bring the game into a steady state, a penalty function is introduced and the performance of various penalty functions is investigated. Simulation results show that heavier penalty leads to faster convergence, but has no effect on the energy consumption of the steady state.

The exploding growth of the biomedical literature presents many challenges for biological researchers. One such challenge is from the use of a great deal of abbreviations. Extracting abbreviations and their definitions accurately is very helpful to biologists and also facilitates biomedical text analysis. Among existing approaches, text alignment algorithms are simple, effective and require no training data. However, state of the art alignment algorithms could not identify the definitions of irregular abbreviations (e.g., ). We propose an algorithm analogous to pairwise sequence alignment, in which it is given a penalty score if there are two unmatched characters separately from the abbreviation and definition, and in this way some irregular abbreviations are found.

Garbage collection is a memory management mechanism for automatically reclaiming garbage objects in memory. It can effectively relieve the programmers' burden and optimize the design of programs. Currently many garbage collection methods for distributed systems have been put forth as the distributed systems are more and more popular. Relaxed consistency model is a very important kind of memory consistency model in distributed system, but it is inefficiently to perform garbage collection in the Distributed shared memory system (DSM) on relaxed memory model with traditional methods. This article proposes a trace-based garbage collection algorithm for DSM system based on relaxed memory model. Our algorithm notes the references among active objects of every node in DSM system, which makes the application process and the collection process able to execute concurrently. And it makes use of the relaxed consistency model's features to reduce communication cost and response delay. Furthermore, the use of two tables insures the algorithm correct and effective. This algorithm displays its advantages of real-time and incremental, and it is proved to be correct and effective.
