Cloud computing is a successful business model and utility paradigm which enables people to use computing power via Internet at anytime anywhere. How to schedule a task to cloud computing is an important issue. In cloud computing some users focus execution time the others maybe expense on tasks execution, so how to satisfy the users and achieve the balance between execution time and expense is very vital. Based on classic Min-Min algorithm, an efficient task scheduling algorithm was proposed where Cobb-Douglas utility function was employed to express user.s preference to time and cost, and maximized user.s utility. Multi-objective optimal solution has been obtained via the utility function. Experimental results evaluating such a mechanism show that the algorithm validate vividly.

Recently, there has been a growing research interest in the analysis of dynamic regret, which measures the performance of an online learner against a sequence of local minimizers. By exploiting the strong convexity, previous studies have shown that the dynamic regret can be upper bounded by the path-length of the comparator sequence. In this paper, we illustrate that the dynamic regret can be further improved by allowing the learner to query the gradient of the function multiple times, and meanwhile the strong convexity can be weakened to other non-degenerate conditions. Specifically, we introduce the squared path-length, which could be much smaller than the path-length, as a new regularity of the comparator sequence. When multiple gradients are accessible to the learner, we first demonstrate that the dynamic regret of strongly convex functions can be upper bounded by the minimum of the path-length and the squared path-length. We then extend our theoretical guarantee to functions that are semi-strongly convex or self-concordant. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that semi-strong convexity and self-concordance are utilized to tighten the dynamic regret.

Sparse Code Multiple Access (SCMA) is a promising multiple access technology candidate for 5G wireless communication systems. The high detection complexity is its bottleneck. Stochastic computation is an ultra-low complexity digital signal processing technique in which probabilities are represented and processed with streams of random bits. In this paper, we propose a novel low complexity stochastic iterative detection approach for SCMA detection based on stochastic computation. We refer it as stochastic SCMA detector. Analysis and simulation results show that the proposed stochastic SCMA detector has only 36% hardware complexity compared to previous state-of-the-art soft input soft output (SISO) SCMA detector with satisfied BER performance.

Combinatorial testing is widely used to detect failures caused by interactions among parameters for its efficiency and effectiveness. Fault localization plays an important role in this testing technique. And minimal failure-causing schema is the root cause of failure. In this paper, an efficient algorithm, which identifies minimal failure-causing schemas from existing failed test cases and passed test cases, is proposed to replace the basic algorithm with worse time performance. Time complexity of basic and improved algorithms is calculated and compared. The result shows that the method that utilizes the differences between failed test cases and passed test cases is better than the method that only uses the sub-schemas of those test cases.

Clustering is an important technique widely used in many areas such as machine learning, pattern recognition, data analysis etc. Data stream clustering is a branch of clustering that draws much attention in recent years, where data objects are processed as an ordered sequence. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised learning neural network named Density Based Self Organizing Incremental Neural Network (DenSOINN) for data stream clustering tasks. DenSOINN is a self organizing competitive network that grows incrementally to learn suitable nodes to fit the distribution of learning data, combining on-line unsupervised learning and topology learning by means of competitive Hebbian learning rule [19]. By adopting a density-based clustering mechanism, DenSOINN can discover arbitrarily shaped clusters and diminish the negative effect of noise. In addition, we adopt a self-adaptive distance framework to obtain good performance for learning unnormalized input data. Experiments show that the DenSOINN can achieve high standard performance equally on both raw data and normalized data.
