1. 标题:The Internet of Things: A survey • Article
出处:Computer Networks, Volume 54, Issue 15, October 2010, Pages 2787-2805
作者:Atzori, L.; Iera, A.; Morabito, G.
摘要:This paper addresses the Internet of Things. Main enabling factor of this promising paradigm is
the integration of several technologies and communications solutions. Identification and tracking
technologies, wired and wireless sensor and actuator networks, enhanced communication protocols
(shared with the Next Generation Internet), and distributed intelligence for smart objects are just the
most relevant. As one can easily imagine, any serious contribution to the advance of the Internet of
Things must necessarily be the result of synergetic activities conducted in different fields of
knowledge, such as telecommunications, informatics, electronics and social science. In such a
complex scenario, this survey is directed to those who want to approach this complex discipline and
contribute to its development. Different visions of this Internet of Things paradigm are reported and
enabling technologies reviewed. What emerges is that still major issues shall be faced by the research
community. The most relevant among them are addressed in details.

2. 标题:Synthesis and surface engineering of iron oxide nanoparticles for biomedical applications •
Review article
出处:Biomaterials, Volume 26, Issue 18, June 2005, Pages 3995-4021
作者:Gupta, A.K.; Gupta, M.
摘要:Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) with appropriate surface chemistry have
been widely used experimentally for numerous in vivo applications such as magnetic resonance
imaging contrast enhancement, tissue repair, immunoassay, detoxification of biological fluids,
hyperthermia, drug delivery and in cell separation, etc. All these biomedical and bioengineering
applications require that these nanoparticles have high magnetization values and size smaller than
100 nm with overall narrow particle size distribution, so that the particles have uniform physical and
chemical properties. In addition, these applications need special surface coating of the magnetic
particles, which has to be not only non-toxic and biocompatible but also allow a targetable delivery
with particle localization in a specific area. To this end, most work in this field has been done in
improving the biocompatibility of the materials, but only a few scientific investigations and
developments have been carried out in improving the quality of magnetic particles, their size
distribution, their shape and surface in addition to characterizing them to get a protocol for the
quality control of these particles. Nature of surface coatings and their subsequent geometric
arrangement on the nanoparticles determine not only the overall size of the colloid but also play a
significant role in biokinetics and biodistribution of nanoparticles in the body. The types of specific
coating, or derivatization, for these nanoparticles depend on the end application and should be chosen
by keeping a particular application in mind, whether it be aimed at inflammation response or
anti-cancer agents. Magnetic nanoparticles can bind to drugs, proteins, enzymes, antibodies, or
nucleotides and can be directed to an organ, tissue, or tumour using an external magnetic field or can
1
be heated in alternating magnetic fields for use in hyperthermia. This review discusses the synthetic
chemistry, fluid stabilization and surface modification of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles,
as well as their use for above biomedical applications.

3. 标题:Data-intensive applications, challenges, techniques and technologies: A survey on Big Data
• Article
出处:Information Sciences, Volume 275, August 2014, Pages 314-347
作者:Philip Chen, C.L.; Zhang, C.Y.
摘要:It is already true that Big Data has drawn huge attention from researchers in information
sciences, policy and decision makers in governments and enterprises. As the speed of information
growth exceeds Moore’s Law at the beginning of this new century, excessive data is making great
troubles to human beings. However, there are so much potential and highly useful values hidden in
the huge volume of data. A new scientific paradigm is born as data-intensive scientific discovery
(DISD), also known as Big Data problems. A large number of fields and sectors, ranging from
economic and business activities to public administration, from national security to scientific
researches in many areas, involve with Big Data problems. On the one hand, Big Data is extremely
valuable to produce productivity in businesses and evolutionary breakthroughs in scientific
disciplines, which give us a lot of opportunities to make great progresses in many fields. There is no
doubt that the future competitions in business productivity and technologies will surely converge into
the Big Data explorations. On the other hand, Big Data also arises with many challenges, such as
difficulties in data capture, data storage, data analysis and data visualization. This paper is aimed to
demonstrate a close-up view about Big Data, including Big Data applications, Big Data opportunities
and challenges, as well as the state-of-the-art techniques and technologies we currently adopt to deal
with the Big Data problems. We also discuss several underlying methodologies to handle the data
deluge, for example, granular computing, cloud computing, bio-inspired computing, and quantum
computing.

nanocomposites • Article
出处:Composites Science and Technology, Volume 63, Issue 15, November 2003, Pages 2223-2253
作者:Huang, Z.-M.; Zhang, Y.-Z.; Kotaki, M.; Ramakrishna, S.
摘要:Electrospinning has been recognized as an efficient technique for the fabrication of polymer
nanofibers. Various polymers have been successfully electrospun into ultrafine fibers in recent years
mostly in solvent solution and some in melt form. Potential applications based on such fibers
specifically their use as reinforcement in nanocomposite development have been realized. In this
paper, a comprehensive review is presented on the researches and developments related to
electrospun polymer nanofibers including processing, structure and property characterization,
applications, and modeling and simulations. Information of those polymers together with their
processing conditions for electrospinning of ultrafine fibers has been summarized in the paper. Other
issues regarding the technology limitations, research challenges, and future trends are also discussed.

5. 标题:Project management: cost, time and quality, two best guesses and a phenomenon, its time to
accept other success criteria • Article
出处:International Journal of Project Management, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 1999, Pages
337-342
作者:Atkinson, Roger
摘要:This paper provides some thoughts about success criteria for IS–IT project management. Cost,
time and quality (The Iron Triangle), over the last 50 years have become inextricably linked with
measuring the success of project management. This is perhaps not surprising, since over the same
period those criteria are usually included in the description of project management. Time and costs
are at best, only guesses, calculated at a time when least is known about the project. Quality is a
phenomenon, it is an emergent property of peoples different attitudes and beliefs, which often change
over the development life-cycle of a project. Why has project management been so reluctant to adopt
other criteria in addition to the Iron Triangle, such as stakeholder benefits against which projects can
be assessed? This paper proposes a new framework to consider success criteria, The Square Route.

6. 标题:A review of shape memory alloy research, applications and opportunities • Review article
出处:Materials & Design, Volume 56, April 2014, Pages 1078-1113
作者:Mohd Jani, J.; Leary, M.; Subic, A.; Gibson, M.A.
摘要:Shape memory alloys (SMAs) belong to a class of shape memory materials (SMMs), which
have the ability to ‘memorise’ or retain their previous form when subjected to certain stimulus such
as thermomechanical or magnetic variations. SMAs have drawn significant attention and interest in
recent years in a broad range of commercial applications, due to their unique and superior properties;
this commercial development has been supported by fundamental and applied research studies. This
work describes the attributes of SMAs that make them ideally suited to actuators in various
applications, and addresses their associated limitations to clarify the design challenges faced by SMA
developers. This work provides a timely review of recent SMA research and commercial applications,
with over 100 state-of-the-art patents; which are categorised against relevant commercial domains
and rated according to design objectives of relevance to these domains (particularly automotive,
aerospace, robotic and biomedical). Although this work presents an extensive review of SMAs, other
categories of SMMs are also discussed; including a historical overview, summary of recent advances
and new application opportunities.

出处:Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, Volume 54, Issue 1-2, January 1999, Pages 3-15
作者:Homola, J.; Yee, S.S.; Gauglitz, G.
摘要:Since the first application of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomenon for sensing
almost two decades ago, this method has made great strides both in terms of instrumentation
development and applications. SPR sensor technology has been commercialized and SPR biosensors
have become a central tool for characterizing and quantifying biomolecular interactions. This paper
attempts to review the major developments in SPR technology. Main application areas are outlined
and examples of applications of SPR sensor technology are presented. Future prospects of SPR
sensor technology are discussed.

9. 标题:Parametric characterization of the geometry of honed cutting edges • Article
出处:Precision Engineering, Volume 37, Issue 3, July 2013, Pages 746-752
作者:Yussefian, N.Z.; Koshy, P.
摘要:Development of methodologies for the geometric characterization of cutting edges is of
significant current interest, in light of the profound influence that the edge geometry wields on
virtually every machining response, and the evolving capability for generating tailored edges. This
paper proposes the parametric modeling of the tool edge geometry through the application of
free-knot B-splines that comprise three piecewise segments corresponding to the cutting edge profile
and the two tool faces. The transition points that demarcate the cutting edge from the tool faces are
objectively and robustly identified by the adaptive placement of the knots that minimizes the residual
error from fitting the B-spline to the tool profile data. On identification of the cutting edge, the edge
profile is modeled by parametric quadratics to yield four geometrically relevant, contour-based
parameters that characterize both symmetric and asymmetric honed edges.

10. 标题:A survey on security issues in service delivery models of cloud computing • Review article
出处:Journal of Network and Computer Applications, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2011, Pages 1-11
作者:Subashini, S.; Kavitha, V.
摘要:Cloud computing is a way to increase the capacity or add capabilities dynamically without
investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software. It extends
Information Technology’s (IT) existing capabilities. In the last few years, cloud computing has grown
from being a promising business concept to one of the fast growing segments of the IT industry. But
as more and more information on individuals and companies are placed in the cloud, concerns are
beginning to grow about just how safe an environment it is. Despite of all the hype surrounding the
cloud, enterprise customers are still reluctant to deploy their business in the cloud. Security is one of
the major issues which reduces the growth of cloud computing and complications with data privacy
and data protection continue to plague the market. The advent of an advanced model should not
negotiate with the required functionalities and capabilities present in the current model. A new model
targeting at improving features of an existing model must not risk or threaten other important features
of the current model. The architecture of cloud poses such a threat to the security of the existing
4
technologies when deployed in a cloud environment. Cloud service users need to be vigilant in
understanding the risks of data breaches in this new environment. In this paper, a survey of the
different security risks that pose a threat to the cloud is presented. This paper is a survey more
specific to the different security issues that has emanated due to the nature of the service delivery
models of a cloud computing system.

作者:Zalba, B.; Marn, J.M.S.T.; Cabeza, L.F.; Mehling, H.
摘要:Thermal energy storage in general, and phase change materials (PCMs) in particular, have been
a main topic in research for the last 20 years, but although the information is quantitatively enormous,
it is also spread widely in the literature, and difficult to find. In this work, a review has been carried
out of the history of thermal energy storage with solid–liquid phase change. Three aspects have been
the focus of this review: materials, heat transfer and applications. The paper contains listed over 150
materials used in research as PCMs, and about 45 commercially available PCMs. The paper lists over
230 references.

12. 标题:A review on buildings energy consumption information • Article
出处:Energy and Buildings, Volume 40, Issue 3, January 2008, Pages 394-398
作者:Perez-Lombard, L.; Ortiz, J.; Pout, C.
摘要:The rapidly growing world energy use has already raised concerns over supply difficulties,
exhaustion of energy resources and heavy environmental impacts (ozone layer depletion, global
warming, climate change, etc.). The global contribution from buildings towards energy consumption,
both residential and commercial, has steadily increased reaching figures between 20% and 40% in
developed countries, and has exceeded the other major sectors: industrial and transportation. Growth
in population, increasing demand for building services and comfort levels, together with the rise in
time spent inside buildings, assure the upward trend in energy demand will continue in the future. For
this reason, energy efficiency in buildings is today a prime objective for energy policy at regional,
national and international levels. Among building services, the growth in HVAC systems energy use
is particularly significant (50% of building consumption and 20% of total consumption in the USA).
This paper analyses available information concerning energy consumption in buildings, and
particularly related to HVAC systems. Many questions arise: Is the necessary information available?
Which are the main building types? What end uses should be considered in the breakdown?
Comparisons between different countries are presented specially for commercial buildings. The case
of offices is analysed in deeper detail.

摘要:One of the major applications of future generation parallel and distributed systems is in
big-data analytics. Data repositories for such applications currently exceed exabytes and are rapidly
increasing in size. Beyond their sheer magnitude, these datasets and associated applications’
considerations pose significant challenges for method and software development. Datasets are often
distributed and their size and privacy considerations warrant distributed techniques. Data often
resides on platforms with widely varying computational and network capabilities. Considerations of
fault-tolerance, security, and access control are critical in many applications (Dean and Ghemawat,
2004; Apache hadoop). Analysis tasks often have hard deadlines, and data quality is a major concern
in yet other applications. For most emerging applications, data-driven models and methods, capable
of operating at scale, are as-yet unknown. Even when known methods can be scaled, validation of
results is a major issue. Characteristics of hardware platforms and the software stack fundamentally
impact data analytics. In this article, we provide an overview of the state-of-the-art and focus on
emerging trends to highlight the hardware, software, and application landscape of big-data analytics.

出处:Biomaterials, Volume 21, Issue 24, December 2000, Pages 2529-2543
作者:Hutmacher, D.W.
摘 要 : Musculoskeletal tissue, bone and cartilage are under extensive investigation in tissue
engineering research. A number of biodegradable and bioresorbable materials, as well as scaffold
designs, have been experimentally and/or clinically studied. Ideally, a scaffold should have the
following characteristics: (i) three-dimensional and highly porous with an interconnected pore
network for cell growth and flow transport of nutrients and metabolic waste; (ii) biocompatible and
bioresorbable with a controllable degradation and resorption rate to match cell/tissue growth in vitro
and/or in vivo; (iii) suitable surface chemistry for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentation
and (iv) mechanical properties to match those of the tissues at the site of implantation. This paper
reviews research on the tissue engineering of bone and cartilage from the polymeric scaffold point of
view.

作者:Cooke-Davies, Terry
摘要:A comprehensive answer to the question of which factors are critical to project success
depends on answering three separate questions: “What factors lead to project management success?”,
“What factors lead to a successful project?” and “What factors lead to consistently successful
projects?” This paper draws on new empirical research from more than 70 large multi-national or
national organizations to answer each of these three questions, and to identify 12 factors that are, in
one way or another, critical to project success.

摘要:A wireless sensor network (WSN) has important applications such as remote environmental
monitoring and target tracking. This has been enabled by the availability, particularly in recent years,
of sensors that are smaller, cheaper, and intelligent. These sensors are equipped with wireless
interfaces with which they can communicate with one another to form a network. The design of a
WSN depends significantly on the application, and it must consider factors such as the environment,
the application’s design objectives, cost, hardware, and system constraints. The goal of our survey is
to present a comprehensive review of the recent literature since the publication of [I.F. Akyildiz, W.
Su, Y. Sankarasubramaniam, E. Cayirci, A survey on sensor networks, IEEE Communications
Magazine, 2002]. Following a top-down approach, we give an overview of several new applications
and then review the literature on various aspects of WSNs. We classify the problems into three
different categories: (1) internal platform and underlying operating system, (2) communication
protocol stack, and (3) network services, provisioning, and deployment. We review the major
development in these three categories and outline new challenges.

Article
出处:Applied Energy, Volume 104, April 2013, Pages 538-553
作者:Tian, Y.; Zhao, C.Y.
摘要:Thermal applications are drawing increasing attention in the solar energy research field, due to
their high performance in energy storage density and energy conversion efficiency. In these
applications, solar collectors and thermal energy storage systems are the two core components. This
paper focuses on the latest developments and advances in solar thermal applications, providing a
review of solar collectors and thermal energy storage systems. Various types of solar collectors are
reviewed and discussed, including both non-concentrating collectors (low temperature applications)
and concentrating collectors (high temperature applications). These are studied in terms of optical
optimisation, heat loss reduction, heat recuperation enhancement and different sun-tracking
mechanisms. Various types of thermal energy storage systems are also reviewed and discussed,
including sensible heat storage, latent heat storage, chemical storage and cascaded storage. They are
studied in terms of design criteria, material selection and different heat transfer enhancement
technologies. Last but not least, existing and future solar power stations are overviewed.

出处:International Journal of Project Management, Volume 28, Issue 5, July 2010, Pages 437-448
作者:Müller, Ralf; Turner, Rodney
摘要:This study examines the leadership competency profiles of successful project managers in
different types of projects. Four hundred responses to the Leadership Development Questionnaire
(LDQ) were used to profile the intellectual, managerial and emotional competences (IQ, MQ and EQ,
respectively) of project managers of successful projects. Differences by project type were accounted
for through categorization of projects by their application type (engineering & construction,
information & telecommunication technology, organizational change), complexity, importance and
contract type. Results indicate high expressions of one IQ sub-dimension (i.e. critical thinking) and
three EQ sub-dimensions (i.e. influence, motivation and conscientiousness) in successful managers in
7
all types of projects. Other sub-dimensions varied by project type. Comparison was made to existing
profiles for goal oriented, involving and engaging leadership styles. Implications derived are the need
for practitioners to be trained in the soft factors of leadership, particular for their types of projects.
Theoretical implications include the need for more transactional styles in relatively simple projects
and more transformational leadership styles in complex projects.

作者:Rezwan, K.; Chen, Q.Z.; Blaker, J.J.; Boccaccini, A.R.
摘要:Biodegradable polymers and bioactive ceramics are being combined in a variety of composite
materials for tissue engineering scaffolds. Materials and fabrication routes for three-dimensional (3D)
scaffolds with interconnected high porosities suitable for bone tissue engineering are reviewed.
Different polymer and ceramic compositions applied and their impact on biodegradability and
bioactivity of the scaffolds are discussed, including in vitro and in vivo assessments. The mechanical
properties of today's available porous scaffolds are analyzed in detail, revealing insufficient elastic
stiffness and compressive strength compared to human bone. Further challenges in scaffold
fabrication for tissue engineering such as biomolecules incorporation, surface functionalization and
3D scaffold characterization are discussed, giving possible solution strategies. Stem cell
incorporation into scaffolds as a future trend is addressed shortly, highlighting the immense potential
for creating next-generation synthetic/living composite biomaterials that feature high adaptiveness to
the biological environment.

作者:Chang, P.C.; Chen, M.H.; Tiwari, M.K.; Iquebal, A.S.
摘 要 : Combinatorial problems like flow shop scheduling, travel salesman problem etc. get
complicated and are difficult to solve when the problem size increases. To overcome this problem,
we present a block-based evolutionary algorithm (BBEA) which will conduct evolutionary
operations on a set of blocks instead of genes. BBEA includes the block mining and block
recombination approaches. A block mining algorithm is developed to decompose a chromosome into
a set of blocks and rest of genes. The block is with a fixed length and can be treated as a building
block in forming a new chromosome later on. To guide the block mining process, a gene linkage
probability matrix is defined that shows the linkage strength among genes. Therefore the blocks can
be further evolved during the evolutionary processes using this matrix. In the block recombination
approach, the blocks along with the rest of genes are recombined to form a new chromosome. This
new evolutionary approach of BBEA is tested on a set of discrete problems. Experimental results
show that BBEA is very competitive when compared with traditional GA, EA or ACGA and HGIA
approaches and it can largely improve the performance of evolutionary algorithm and save a fair
amount of computational times simultaneously.

出处:Journal of Operations Management, Volume 25, Issue 6, November 2007, Pages 1075-1082
作者:Linton, Jonathan D.; Klassen, Robert; Jayaraman, Vaidyanathan
摘要:Consideration is given to the convergence of supply chains and sustainability. In doing so, the
focus on environmental management and operations is moved from local optimization of
environmental factors to consideration of the entire supply chain during the production, consumption,
customer service and post-disposal disposition of products. This is a critical and timely topic that
captures increasing concerns over sustainability, whether driven by current legislation, public interest,
or competitive opportunity. As such, sustainable development is a rich area for academic research
that is still in its infancy and has the potential to affect future government policy, current production
operations, and identify new business models. This paper provides a background to better understand
current trends in this multidisciplinary field that intersect with operations management, and the
research opportunities and challenges it presents.

and Project Success • Article
出处:International Journal of Project Management
作者:Mir, Farzana Asad; Pinnington, Ashly H.
摘要:The literature on Project Management (PM) shows that, in spite of advancement in PM
processes, tools and systems, project success has not significantly improved. This problem raises
questions about the value and effectiveness of PM and PM systems. This paper reports a research
study which tests the relationship between PM performance and project success drawing from
empirical data on PM professionals working in UAE project-based organisations.
Multi-dimensional frameworks are validated and used in this study to measure PM performance
and project success. A total of 154 completed questionnaires were analysed. Bi-variate correlation
and multiple regression tests found a positive influence of PM performance and its contributing
variables on project success. Additionally, new variable relationships that have not previously been
identified are explored between individual variables of PM performance and project success.

摘要:Polymer scaffolds have many different functions in the field of tissue engineering. They are
applied as space filling agents, as delivery vehicles for bioactive molecules, and as three-dimensional
structures that organize cells and present stimuli to direct the formation of a desired tissue. Much of
the success of scaffolds in these roles hinges on finding an appropriate material to address the critical
physical, mass transport, and biological design variables inherent to each application. Hydrogels are
an appealing scaffold material because they are structurally similar to the extracellular matrix of
many tissues, can often be processed under relatively mild conditions, and may be delivered in a
minimally invasive manner. Consequently, hydrogels have been utilized as scaffold materials for
drug and growth factor delivery, engineering tissue replacements, and a variety of other applications.

needs • Review article
出处:Automation in Construction, Volume 38, March 2014, Pages 109-127
作者:Volk, R.; Stengel, J.; Schultmann, F.
摘要:While BIM processes are established for new buildings, the majority of existing buildings is
not maintained, refurbished or deconstructed with BIM yet. Promising benefits of efficient resource
management motivate research to overcome uncertainties of building condition and deficient
documentation prevalent in existing buildings.
Due to rapid developments in BIM research, involved stakeholders demand a state-of-the-art
overview of BIM implementation and research in existing buildings. This paper presents a review of
over 180 recent publications on the topic. Results show scarce BIM implementation in existing
buildings yet, due to challenges of (1) high modeling/conversion effort from captured building data
into semantic BIM objects, (2) updating of information in BIM and (3) handling of uncertain data,
objects and relations in BIM occurring in existing buildings.
Despite fast developments and spreading standards, challenging research opportunities arise
from process automation and BIM adaption to existing buildings' requirements.

摘要:Supply chain management (SCM) has been a major component of competitive strategy to
enhance organizational productivity and profitability. The literature on SCM that deals with strategies
and technologies for effectively managing a supply chain is quite vast. In recent years, organizational
performance measurement and metrics have received much attention from researchers and
practitioners. The role of these measures and metrics in the success of an organization cannot be
overstated because they affect strategic, tactical and operational planning and control. Performance
measurement and metrics have an important role to play in setting objectives, evaluating
performance, and determining future courses of actions. Performance measurement and metrics
pertaining to SCM have not received adequate attention from researchers or practitioners. We
developed a framework to promote a better understanding of the importance of SCM performance
measurement and metrics. Using the current literature and the results of an empirical study of
selected British companies, we developed the framework presented herein, in hopes that it would
stimulate more interest in this important area.

Review article

摘要:Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) with appropriate surface chemistry have
been widely used experimentally for numerous in vivo applications such as magnetic resonance
imaging contrast enhancement, tissue repair, immunoassay, detoxification of biological fluids,
hyperthermia, drug delivery and in cell separation, etc. All these biomedical and bioengineering
applications require that these nanoparticles have high magnetization values and size smaller than
100 nm with overall narrow particle size distribution, so that the particles have uniform physical and
chemical properties. In addition, these applications need special surface coating of the magnetic
particles, which has to be not only non-toxic and biocompatible but also allow a targetable delivery
with particle localization in a specific area. To this end, most work in this field has been done in
improving the biocompatibility of the materials, but only a few scientific investigations and
developments have been carried out in improving the quality of magnetic particles, their size
distribution, their shape and surface in addition to characterizing them to get a protocol for the
quality control of these particles. Nature of surface coatings and their subsequent geometric
arrangement on the nanoparticles determine not only the overall size of the colloid but also play a
significant role in biokinetics and biodistribution of nanoparticles in the body. The types of specific
coating, or derivatization, for these nanoparticles depend on the end application and should be chosen
by keeping a particular application in mind, whether it be aimed at inflammation response or
anti-cancer agents. Magnetic nanoparticles can bind to drugs, proteins, enzymes, antibodies, or
nucleotides and can be directed to an organ, tissue, or tumour using an external magnetic field or can
be heated in alternating magnetic fields for use in hyperthermia. This review discusses the synthetic
chemistry, fluid stabilization and surface modification of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles,
as well as their use for above biomedical applications.

摘要:Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films were deposited on microscope glass substrates by sol–gel spin
coating method. Zinc acetate (ZnAc) dehydrate was used as the starting salt material source. A
homogeneous and stable solution was prepared by dissolving ZnAc in the solution of
monoethanolamine (MEA). ZnO thin films were obtained after preheating the spin coated thin films
at 250 °C for 5 min after each coating. The films, after the deposition of the eighth layer, were
annealed in air at temperatures of 300 °C, 400 °C and 500 °C for 1 h. The effect of thermal annealing
in air on the physical properties of the sol–gel derived ZnO thin films are studied. The powder and its
thin film were characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD) method. XRD analysis revealed that the
annealed ZnO thin films consist of single phase ZnO with wurtzite structure (JCPDS 36-1451) and
show the c-axis grain orientation. Increasing annealing temperature increased the c-axis orientation
and the crystallite size of the film. The annealed films are highly transparent with average
transmission exceeding 80% in the visible range (400–700 nm). The measured optical band gap
values of the ZnO thin films were between 3.26 eV and 3.28 eV, which were in the range of band gap
values of intrinsic ZnO (3.2–3.3 eV). SEM analysis of annealed thin films has shown a completely
different surface morphology behavior.

摘要:Shape memory alloys (SMAs) belong to a class of shape memory materials (SMMs), which
have the ability to ‘memorise’ or retain their previous form when subjected to certain stimulus such
as thermomechanical or magnetic variations. SMAs have drawn significant attention and interest in
recent years in a broad range of commercial applications, due to their unique and superior properties;
this commercial development has been supported by fundamental and applied research studies. This
work describes the attributes of SMAs that make them ideally suited to actuators in various
applications, and addresses their associated limitations to clarify the design challenges faced by SMA
developers. This work provides a timely review of recent SMA research and commercial applications,
12
with over 100 state-of-the-art patents; which are categorised against relevant commercial domains
and rated according to design objectives of relevance to these domains (particularly automotive,
aerospace, robotic and biomedical). Although this work presents an extensive review of SMAs, other
categories of SMMs are also discussed; including a historical overview, summary of recent advances
and new application opportunities.

摘要:Lithium batteries are characterized by high specific energy, high efficiency and long life. These
unique properties have made lithium batteries the power sources of choice for the consumer
electronics market with a production of the order of billions of units per year. These batteries are also
expected to find a prominent role as ideal electrochemical storage systems in renewable energy plants,
as well as power systems for sustainable vehicles, such as hybrid and electric vehicles. However,
scaling up the lithium battery technology for these applications is still problematic since issues such
as safety, costs, wide operational temperature and materials availability, are still to be resolved. This
review focuses first on the present status of lithium battery technology, then on its near future
development and finally it examines important new directions aimed at achieving quantum jumps in
energy and power content.

摘要:To overcome the bacteria-caused degradation of silk, an ultraviolet light (UV)-assisted in situ
synthesis approach is developed to immobilize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on degummed silk

出处:Surface Science Reports, Volume 48, Issue 5-8, January 2003, Pages 53-229
作者:Diebold, U.
摘要:Titanium dioxide is the most investigated single-crystalline system in the surface science of
metal oxides, and the literature on rutile (1 1 0), (1 0 0), (0 0 1), and anatase surfaces is reviewed.
This paper starts with a summary of the wide variety of technical fields where TiO2 is of importance.
14
The bulk structure and bulk defects (as far as relevant to the surface properties) are briefly reviewed.
Rules to predict stable oxide surfaces are exemplified on rutile (1 1 0). The surface structure of rutile
(1 1 0) is discussed in some detail. Theoretically predicted and experimentally determined relaxations
of surface geometries are compared, and defects (step edge orientations, point and line defects,
impurities, surface manifestations of crystallographic shear planes—CSPs) are discussed, as well as
the image contrast in scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The controversy about the correct
model for the (1×2) reconstruction appears to be settled. Different surface preparation methods, such
as reoxidation of reduced crystals, can cause a drastic effect on surface geometries and morphology,
and recommendations for preparing different TiO2(1 1 0) surfaces are given. The structure of the
TiO2(1 0 0)-(1×1) surface is discussed and the proposed models for the (1×3) reconstruction are
critically reviewed. Very recent results on anatase (1 0 0) and (1 0 1) surfaces are included.
The electronic structure of stoichiometric TiO2 surfaces is now well understood. Surface defects
can be detected with a variety of surface spectroscopies. The vibrational structure is dominated by
strong Fuchs–Kliewer phonons, and high-resolution electron energy loss spectra often need to be
deconvoluted in order to render useful information about adsorbed molecules.
The growth of metals (Li, Na, K, Cs, Ca, Al, Ti, V, Nb, Cr, Mo, Mn, Fe, Co, Rh, Ir, Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu, Ag,
Au) as well as some metal oxides on TiO2 is reviewed. The tendency to ‘wet’ the overlayer, the
growth morphology, the epitaxial relationship, and the strength of the interfacial oxidation/reduction
reaction all follow clear trends across the periodic table, with the reactivity of the overlayer metal
towards oxygen being the most decisive factor. Alkali atoms form ordered superstructures at low
coverages. Recent progress in understanding the surface structure of metals in the ‘strong-metal
support interaction’ (SMSI) state is summarized.
Literature is reviewed on the adsorption and reaction of a wide variety of inorganic molecules (H2,
O2, H2O, CO, CO2, N2, NH3, NOx, sulfur- and halogen-containing molecules, rare gases) as well as
organic molecules (carboxylic acids, alcohols, aldehydes and ketones, alkynes, pyridine and its
derivates, silanes, methyl halides). The application of TiO2-based systems in photo-active devices is
discussed, and the results on UHV-based photocatalytic studies are summarized.
The review ends with a brief conclusion and outlook of TiO2-based surface science for the
future.

出处:Precision Engineering, Volume 37, Issue 3, July 2013, Pages 746-752
作者:Yussefian, N.Z.; Koshy, P.
摘要:Development of methodologies for the geometric characterization of cutting edges is of
significant current interest, in light of the profound influence that the edge geometry wields on
virtually every machining response, and the evolving capability for generating tailored edges. This
paper proposes the parametric modeling of the tool edge geometry through the application of
free-knot B-splines that comprise three piecewise segments corresponding to the cutting edge profile
and the two tool faces. The transition points that demarcate the cutting edge from the tool faces are
objectively and robustly identified by the adaptive placement of the knots that minimizes the residual
error from fitting the B-spline to the tool profile data. On identification of the cutting edge, the edge
profile is modeled by parametric quadratics to yield four geometrically relevant, contour-based
parameters that characterize both symmetric and asymmetric honed edges.

作者:Fujishima, A.; Zhang, X.; Tryk, D.A.
摘要:The field of photocatalysis can be traced back more than 80 years to early observations of the
chalking of titania-based paints and to studies of the darkening of metal oxides in contact with
organic compounds in sunlight. During the past 20 years, it has become an extremely well researched
field due to practical interest in air and water remediation, self-cleaning surfaces, and self-sterilizing
surfaces. During the same period, there has also been a strong effort to use photocatalysis for
light-assisted production of hydrogen. The fundamental aspects of photocatalysis on the most studied
photocatalyst, titania, are still being actively researched and have recently become quite well
understood. The mechanisms by which certain types of organic compounds are decomposed
completely to carbon dioxide and water, for example, have been delineated. However, certain aspects,
such as the photo-induced wetting phenomenon, remain controversial, with some groups maintaining
that the effect is a simple one in which organic contaminants are decomposed, while other groups
maintain that there are additional effects in which the intrinsic surface properties are modified by
light. During the past several years, powerful tools such as surface spectroscopic techniques and
scanning probe techniques performed on single crystals in ultra-high vacuum, and ultrafast pulsed
laser spectroscopic techniques have been brought to bear on these problems, and new insights have
become possible. Quantum chemical calculations have also provided new insights. New materials
have recently been developed based on titania, and the sensitivity to visible light has improved. The
new information available is staggering, but we hope to offer an overview of some of the recent
highlights, as well as to review some of the origins and indicate some possible new directions.

摘要:Chitin is the second most important natural polymer in the world. The main sources exploited
are two marine crustaceans, shrimp and crabs. Our objective is to appraise the state of the art
concerning this polysaccharide: its morphology in the native solid state, methods of identification
and characterization and chemical modifications, as well as the difficulties in utilizing and processing
it for selected applications. We note the important work of P. Austin, S. Tokura and S. Hirano, who
have contributed to the applications development of chitin, especially in fiber form. Then, we discuss
chitosan, the most important derivative of chitin, outlining the best techniques to characterize it and
the main problems encountered in its utilization. Chitosan, which is soluble in acidic aqueous media,
is used in many applications (food, cosmetics, biomedical and pharmaceutical applications). We
briefly describe the chemical modifications of chitosan—an area in which a variety of syntheses have
been proposed tentatively, but are not yet developed on an industrial scale. This review emphasizes
recent papers on the high value-added applications of these materials in medicine and cosmetics.

作者:Pei, S.; Cheng, H.M.
摘要:Graphene has attracted great interest for its excellent mechanical, electrical, thermal and
optical properties. It can be produced by micro-mechanical exfoliation of highly ordered pyrolytic
graphite, epitaxial growth, chemical vapor deposition, and the reduction of graphene oxide (GO). The
first three methods can produce graphene with a relatively perfect structure and excellent properties,
while in comparison, GO has two important characteristics: (1) it can be produced using inexpensive
graphite as raw material by cost-effective chemical methods with a high yield, and (2) it is highly
hydrophilic and can form stable aqueous colloids to facilitate the assembly of macroscopic structures
by simple and cheap solution processes, both of which are important to the large-scale uses of
graphene. A key topic in the research and applications of GO is the reduction, which partly restores
the structure and properties of graphene. Different reduction processes result in different properties of
reduced GO (rGO), which in turn affect the final performance of materials or devices composed of
rGO. In this contribution, we review the state-of-art status of the reduction of GO on both techniques
and mechanisms. The development in this field will speed the applications of graphene.

摘 要 : Musculoskeletal tissue, bone and cartilage are under extensive investigation in tissue
engineering research. A number of biodegradable and bioresorbable materials, as well as scaffold
designs, have been experimentally and/or clinically studied. Ideally, a scaffold should have the
following characteristics: (i) three-dimensional and highly porous with an interconnected pore
network for cell growth and flow transport of nutrients and metabolic waste; (ii) biocompatible and
bioresorbable with a controllable degradation and resorption rate to match cell/tissue growth in vitro
and/or in vivo; (iii) suitable surface chemistry for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentation
and (iv) mechanical properties to match those of the tissues at the site of implantation. This paper
reviews research on the tissue engineering of bone and cartilage from the polymeric scaffold point of

摘要:Carbon nanotubes have long been recognized as the stiffest and strongest man-made material
known to date. In addition, their high electrical conductivity has roused interest in the area of
electrical appliances and communication related applications. However, due to their miniscule size,
the excellent properties of these nanostructures can only be exploited if they are homogeneously
embedded into light-weight matrices as those offered by a whole series of engineering polymers. We
review the present state of polymer nanocomposites research in which the fillers are carbon
17
nanotubes. In order to enhance their chemical affinity to engineering polymer matrices, chemical
modification of the graphitic sidewalls and tips is necessary. In this review, an extended account of
the various chemical strategies for grafting polymers onto carbon nanotubes and the manufacturing
of carbon nanotube/polymer nanocomposites is given. The mechanical and electrical properties to
date of a whole range of nanocomposites of various carbon nanotube contents are also reviewed in an

摘要:Phase change materials (PCMs) used for the storage of thermal energy as sensible and latent
heat are an important class of modern materials which substantially contribute to the efficient use and
conservation of waste heat and solar energy. The storage of latent heat provides a greater density of
energy storage with a smaller temperature difference between storing and releasing heat than the
sensible heat storage method. Many different groups of materials have been investigated during the
technical evolution of PCMs, including inorganic systems (salt and salt hydrates), organic
compounds such as paraffins or fatty acids and polymeric materials, e.g. poly(ethylene glycol).
Historically, the relationships between the structure and the energy storage properties of a material
have been studied to provide an understanding of the heat accumulation/emission mechanism
governing the material’s imparted energy storage characteristics.
This paper reviews the present state of the art of PCMs for thermal energy storage applications
and provides an insight into recent efforts to develop new PCMs with enhanced performance and
safety. Specific attention is given to the improvement of thermal conductivity, encapsulation methods
and shape stabilization procedures. In addition, the flame retarding properties and performance are
discussed. The wide range of PCM applications in the construction, electronic, biomedical, textile
and automotive industries is presented and future research directions are indicated.

techniques • Review article
出处:Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, Volume 93, Issue 4, April 2009, Pages 394-412
作者:Krebs, F.C.
摘要:Polymer solar cells are reviewed in the context of the processing techniques leading to
complete devices. A distinction is made between the film-forming techniques that are used currently
such as spincoating, doctor blading and casting and the, from a processing point of view, more
desirable film-forming techniques such as slot-die coating, gravure coating, knife-over-edge coating,
off-set coating, spray coating and printing techniques such as ink jet printing, pad printing and screen
printing. The former are used almost exclusively and are not suited for high-volume production
whereas the latter are highly suited, but little explored in the context of polymer solar cells. A further
distinction is made between printing and coating when a film is formed. The entire process leading to
polymer solar cells is broken down into the individual steps and the available techniques and
materials for each step are described with focus on the particular advantages and disadvantages
associated with each case.

摘要:Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) is one of the most successfully developed biodegradable
polymers. Among the different polymers developed to formulate polymeric nanoparticles, PLGA has
attracted considerable attention due to its attractive properties: (i) biodegradability and
biocompatibility, (ii) FDA and European Medicine Agency approval in drug delivery systems for
parenteral administration, (iii) well described formulations and methods of production adapted to
various types of drugs e.g. hydrophilic or hydrophobic small molecules or macromolecules, (iv)
19
protection of drug from degradation, (v) possibility of sustained release, (vi) possibility to modify
surface properties to provide stealthness and/or better interaction with biological materials and (vii)
possibility to target nanoparticles to specific organs or cells. This review presents why PLGA has
been chosen to design nanoparticles as drug delivery systems in various biomedical applications such
as vaccination, cancer, inflammation and other diseases. This review focuses on the understanding of
specific characteristics exploited by PLGA-based nanoparticles to target a specific organ or tissue or
specific cells.

摘要:This review presents an overview of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) preparation by green
synthesis approaches that have advantages over conventional methods involving chemical agents
associated with environmental toxicity. Green synthetic methods include mixed-valence
polyoxometallates, polysaccharide, Tollens, irradiation, and biological. The mixed-valence
polyoxometallates method was carried out in water, an environmentally-friendly solvent. Solutions of
AgNO3 containing glucose and starch in water gave starch-protected Ag NPs, which could be
integrated into medical applications. Tollens process involves the reduction of Ag(NH3)2+ by
saccharides forming Ag NP films with particle sizes from 50–200 nm, Ag hydrosols with particles in
the order of 20–50 nm, and Ag colloid particles of different shapes. The reduction of Ag(NH3)2+ by
HTAB (n-hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide) gave Ag NPs of different morphologies: cubes,
triangles, wires, and aligned wires. Ag NPs synthesis by irradiation of Ag+ ions does not involve a
reducing agent and is an appealing procedure. Eco-friendly bio-organisms in plant extracts contain
proteins, which act as both reducing and capping agents forming stable and shape-controlled Ag NPs.
The synthetic procedures of polymer-Ag and TiO2–Ag NPs are also given. Both Ag NPs and Ag NPs
modified by surfactants or polymers showed high antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and
Gram-negative bacteria. The mechanism of the Ag NP bactericidal activity is discussed in terms of
Ag NP interaction with the cell membranes of bacteria. Silver-containing filters are shown to have
antibacterial properties in water and air purification. Finally, human and environmental implications
of Ag NPs to the ecology of aquatic environment are briefly discussed.

摘要:During the past two decades significant advances have been made in the development of
biodegradable polymeric materials for biomedical applications. Degradable polymeric biomaterials
are preferred candidates for developing therapeutic devices such as temporary prostheses,
three-dimensional porous structures as scaffolds for tissue engineering and as controlled/sustained
release drug delivery vehicles. Each of these applications demands materials with specific physical,
chemical, biological, biomechanical and degradation properties to provide efficient therapy.
Consequently, a wide range of natural or synthetic polymers capable of undergoing degradation by
hydrolytic or enzymatic route are being investigated for biomedical applications. This review
20
summarizes the main advances published over the last 15 years, outlining the synthesis,
biodegradability and biomedical applications of biodegradable synthetic and natural polymers.

nanocomposites-A review • Review article

摘要:Nanoparticles and nanocomposites are used in a wide range of applications in various fields,
such as medicine, textiles, cosmetics, agriculture, optics, food packaging, optoelectronic devices,
semiconductor devices, aerospace, construction and catalysis. Nanoparticles can be incorporated into
polymeric nanocomposites. Polymeric nanocomposites consisting of inorganic nanoparticles and
organic polymers represent a new class of materials that exhibit improved performance compared to
their microparticle counterparts. It is therefore expected that they will advance the field of
engineering applications. Incorporation of inorganic nanoparticles into a polymer matrix can
significantly affect the properties of the matrix. The resulting composite might exhibit improved
thermal, mechanical, rheological, electrical, catalytic, fire retardancy and optical properties. The
properties of polymer composites depend on the type of nanoparticles that are incorporated, their size
and shape, their concentration and their interactions with the polymer matrix. The main problem with
polymer nanocomposites is the prevention of particle aggregation.
It is difficult to produce
monodispersed nanoparticles in a polymer matrix because nanoparticles agglomerate due to their
specific surface area and volume effects. This problem can be overcome by modification of the
surface of the inorganic particles. The modification improves the interfacial interactions between the
inorganic particles and the polymer matrix. There are two ways to modify the surface of inorganic
particles. The first is accomplished through surface absorption or reaction with small molecules, such
as silane coupling agents, and the second method is based on grafting polymeric molecules through
covalent bonding to the hydroxyl groups existing on the particles. The advantage of the second
procedure over the first lies in the fact that the polymer-grafted particles can be designed with the
desired properties through a proper selection of the species of the grafting monomers and the choice
of grafting conditions.

摘要:What will 5G be? What it will not be is an incremental advance on 4G. The previous four
generations of cellular technology have each been a major paradigm shift that has broken backward
compatibility. Indeed, 5G will need to be a paradigm shift that includes very high carrier frequencies
with massive bandwidths, extreme base station and device densities, and unprecedented numbers of
antennas. However, unlike the previous four generations, it will also be highly integrative: tying any
new 5G air interface and spectrum together with LTE and WiFi to provide universal high-rate
coverage and a seamless user experience. To support this, the core network will also have to reach
unprecedented levels of flexibility and intelligence, spectrum regulation will need to be rethought
and improved, and energy and cost efficiencies will become even more critical considerations. This
paper discusses all of these topics, identifying key challenges for future research and preliminary 5G
standardization activities, while providing a comprehensive overview of the current literature, and in
particular of the papers appearing in this special issue.

摘要:Recent technological advancements have led to a deluge of data from distinctive domains (e.g.,
health care and scientific sensors, user-generated data, Internet and financial companies, and supply
chain systems) over the past two decades. The term big data was coined to capture the meaning of
this emerging trend. In addition to its sheer volume, big data also exhibits other unique characteristics
as compared with traditional data. For instance, big data is commonly unstructured and require more
real-time analysis. This development calls for new system architectures for data acquisition,
transmission, storage, and large-scale data processing mechanisms. In this paper, we present a
literature survey and system tutorial for big data analytics platforms, aiming to provide an overall
picture for nonexpert readers and instill a do-it-yourself spirit for advanced audiences to customize
their own big-data solutions. First, we present the definition of big data and discuss big data
challenges. Next, we present a systematic framework to decompose big data systems into four
sequential modules, namely data generation, data acquisition, data storage, and data analytics. These
22
four modules form a big data value chain. Following that, we present a detailed survey of numerous
approaches and mechanisms from research and industry communities. In addition, we present the
prevalent Hadoop framework for addressing big data challenges. Finally, we outline several
evaluation benchmarks and potential research directions for big data systems.

摘要:The fourth generation wireless communication systems have been deployed or are soon to be
deployed in many countries. However, with an explosion of wireless mobile devices and services,
there are still some challenges that cannot be accommodated even by 4G, such as the spectrum crisis
and high energy consumption. Wireless system designers have been facing the continuously
increasing demand for high data rates and mobility required by new wireless applications and
therefore have started research on fifth generation wireless systems that are expected to be deployed
beyond 2020. In this article, we propose a potential cellular architecture that separates indoor and
outdoor scenarios, and discuss various promising technologies for 5G wireless communication
systems, such as massive MIMO, energy-efficient communications, cognitive radio networks, and
visible light communications. Future challenges facing these potential technologies are also
discussed.

摘要:Multi-user MIMO offers big advantages over conventional point-to-point MIMO: it works
with cheap single-antenna terminals, a rich scattering environment is not required, and resource
allocation is simplified because every active terminal utilizes all of the time-frequency bins. However,
multi-user MIMO, as originally envisioned, with roughly equal numbers of service antennas and
terminals and frequency-division duplex operation, is not a scalable technology. Massive MIMO
(also known as large-scale antenna systems, very large MIMO, hyper MIMO, full-dimension MIMO,
and ARGOS) makes a clean break with current practice through the use of a large excess of service
antennas over active terminals and time-division duplex operation. Extra antennas help by focusing
energy into ever smaller regions of space to bring huge improvements in throughput and radiated
energy efficiency. Other benefits of massive MIMO include extensive use of inexpensive low-power
components, reduced latency, simplification of the MAC layer, and robustness against intentional
jamming. The anticipated throughput depends on the propagation environment providing
asymptotically orthogonal channels to the terminals, but so far experiments have not disclosed any
limitations in this regard. While massive MIMO renders many traditional research problems
23
irrelevant, it uncovers entirely new problems that urgently need attention: the challenge of making
many low-cost low-precision components that work effectively together, acquisition and
synchronization for newly joined terminals, the exploitation of extra degrees of freedom provided by
the excess of service antennas, reducing internal power consumption to achieve total energy
efficiency reductions, and finding new deployment scenarios. This article presents an overview of the
massive MIMO concept and contemporary research on the topic.

摘要:The global bandwidth shortage facing wireless carriers has motivated the exploration of the
underutilized millimeter wave (mm-wave) frequency spectrum for future broadband cellular
communication networks. There is, however, little knowledge about cellular mm-wave propagation
in densely populated indoor and outdoor environments. Obtaining this information is vital for the
design and operation of future fifth generation cellular networks that use the mm-wave spectrum. In
this paper, we present the motivation for new mm-wave cellular systems, methodology, and hardware
for measurements and offer a variety of measurement results that show 28 and 38 GHz frequencies
can be used when employing steerable directional antennas at base stations and mobile devices.

摘要:Cloud computing is set of resources and services offered through the Internet. Cloud services
are delivered from data centers located throughout the world. Cloud computing facilitates its
consumers by providing virtual resources via internet. General example of cloud services is Google
apps, provided by Google and Microsoft SharePoint. The rapid growth in field of “cloud computing”
also increases severe security concerns. Security has remained a constant issue for Open Systems and
internet, when we are talking about security cloud really suffers. Lack of security is the only hurdle
in wide adoption of cloud computing. Cloud computing is surrounded by many security issues like
securing data, and examining the utilization of cloud by the cloud computing vendors. The wide
acceptance www has raised security risks along with the uncountable benefits, so is the case with
cloud computing. The boom in cloud computing has brought lots of security challenges for the
consumers and service providers. How the end users of cloud computing know that their information
is not having any availability and security issues? Every one poses, Is their information secure? This
study aims to identify the most vulnerable security threats in cloud computing, which will enable
both end users and vendors to know about the key security threats associated with cloud computing.
Our work will enable researchers and security professionals to know about users and vendors
concerns and critical analysis about the different security models and tools proposed.

摘要:METIS is the EU flagship 5G project with the objective of laying the foundation for 5G
systems and building consensus prior to standardization. The METIS overall approach toward 5G
builds on the evolution of existing technologies complemented by new radio concepts that are
designed to meet the new and challenging requirements of use cases today's radio access networks
cannot support. The integration of these new radio concepts, such as massive MIMO, ultra dense
networks, moving networks, and device-to-device, ultra reliable, and massive machine
communications, will allow 5G to support the expected increase in mobile data volume while
broadening the range of application domains that mobile communications can support beyond 2020.
In this article, we describe the scenarios identified for the purpose of driving the 5G research
direction. Furthermore, we give initial directions for the technology components (e.g., link level
components, multinode/multiantenna, multi-RAT, and multi-layer networks and spectrum handling)
that will allow the fulfillment of the requirements of the identified 5G scenarios.

摘要:A general non-parametric technique is proposed for the analysis of a complex multimodal
feature space and to delineate arbitrarily shaped clusters in it. The basic computational module of the
technique is an old pattern recognition procedure: the mean shift. For discrete data, we prove the
convergence of a recursive mean shift procedure to the nearest stationary point of the underlying
density function and, thus, its utility in detecting the modes of the density. The relation of the mean
shift procedure to the Nadaraya-Watson estimator from kernel regression and the robust M-estimators;
of location is also established. Algorithms for two low-level vision tasks discontinuity-preserving
smoothing and image segmentation - are described as applications. In these algorithms, the only
user-set parameter is the resolution of the analysis, and either gray-level or color images are accepted
25
as input. Extensive experimental results illustrate their excellent performance

摘要:Suppose x is an unknown vector in Ropfm (a digital image or signal); we plan to measure n
general linear functionals of x and then reconstruct. If x is known to be compressible by transform
coding with a known transform, and we reconstruct via the nonlinear procedure defined here, the
number of measurements n can be dramatically smaller than the size m. Thus, certain natural classes
of images with m pixels need only n=O(m1/4log5/2(m)) nonadaptive nonpixel samples for faithful
recovery, as opposed to the usual m pixel samples. More specifically, suppose x has a sparse
representation in some orthonormal basis (e.g., wavelet, Fourier) or tight frame (e.g., curvelet,
Gabor)-so the coefficients belong to an lscrp ball for 0<ples1. The N most important coefficients in
that expansion allow reconstruction with lscr2 error O(N1/2-1p/). It is possible to design
n=O(Nlog(m)) nonadaptive measurements allowing reconstruction with accuracy comparable to that
attainable with direct knowledge of the N most important coefficients. Moreover, a good
approximation to those N important coefficients is extracted from the n measurements by solving a
linear program-Basis Pursuit in signal processing. The nonadaptive measurements have the character
of "random" linear combinations of basis/frame elements. Our results use the notions of optimal
recovery, of n-widths, and information-based complexity. We estimate the Gel'fand n-widths of lscrp
balls in high-dimensional Euclidean space in the case 0<ples1, and give a criterion identifying nearoptimal subspaces for Gel'fand n-widths. We show that "most" subspaces are near-optimal, and show
that convex optimization (Basis Pursuit) is a near-optimal way to extract information derived from
these near-optimal subspaces

摘要:Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communications refers to the idea
equipping cellular base stations (BSs) with a very large number of antennas, and has been shown to
potentially allow for orders of magnitude improvement in spectral and energy efficiency using
relatively simple (linear) processing. In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview of
state-of-the-art research on the topic, which has recently attracted considerable attention. We begin
with an information theoretic analysis to illustrate the conjectured advantages of massive MIMO, and
then we address implementation issues related to channel estimation, detection and precoding
schemes. We particularly focus on the potential impact of pilot contamination caused by the use of
non-orthogonal pilot sequences by users in adjacent cells. We also analyze the energy efficiency
achieved by massive MIMO systems, and demonstrate how the degrees of freedom provided by
26
massive MIMO systems enable efficient single-carrier transmission. Finally, the challenges and
opportunities associated with implementing massive MIMO in future wireless communications
systems are discussed.

摘要:Agent-based cloud computing is concerned with the design and development of software
agents for bolstering cloud service discovery, service negotiation, and service composition. The
significance of this work is introducing an agent-based paradigm for constructing software tools and
testbeds for cloud resource management. The novel contributions of this work include: 1) developing
Cloudle: an agent-based search engine for cloud service discovery, 2) showing that agent-based
negotiation mechanisms can be effectively adopted for bolstering cloud service negotiation and cloud
commerce, and 3) showing that agent-based cooperative problem-solving techniques can be
effectively adopted for automating cloud service composition. Cloudle consists of 1) a service
discovery agent that consults a cloud ontology for determining the similarities between providers'
service specifications and consumers' service requirements, and 2) multiple cloud crawlers for
building its database of services. Cloudle supports three types of reasoning: similarity reasoning,
compatibility reasoning, and numerical reasoning. To support cloud commerce, this work devised a
complex cloud negotiation mechanism that supports parallel negotiation activities in interrelated
markets: a cloud service market between consumer agents and broker agents, and multiple cloud
resource markets between broker agents and provider agents. Empirical results show that using the
complex cloud negotiation mechanism, agents achieved high utilities and high success rates in
negotiating for cloud resources. To automate cloud service composition, agents in this work adopt a
focused selection contract net protocol (FSCNP) for dynamically selecting cloud services and use
service capability tables (SCTs) to record the list of cloud agents and their services. Empirical results
show that using FSCNP and SCTs, agents can successfully compose cloud services by autonomously
selecting services.

programmable networks from early ideas to recent developments. Then we present the SDN
architecture and the OpenFlow standard in particular, discuss current alternatives for implementation
and testing of SDN-based protocols and services, examine current and future SDN applications, and
explore promising research directions based on the SDN paradigm.

摘要:Objective methods for assessing perceptual image quality traditionally attempted to quantify
the visibility of errors (differences) between a distorted image and a reference image using a variety
of known properties of the human visual system. Under the assumption that human visual perception
is highly adapted for extracting structural information from a scene, we introduce an alternative
complementary framework for quality assessment based on the degradation of structural information.
As a specific example of this concept, we develop a structural similarity index and demonstrate its
promise through a set of intuitive examples, as well as comparison to both subjective ratings and
state-of-the-art objective methods on a database of images compressed with JPEG and JPEG2000. A

IoT is hence a very complex task, mainly because of the extremely large variety of devices, link layer
technologies, and services that may be involved in such a system. In this paper, we focus specifically
to an urban IoT system that, while still being quite a broad category, are characterized by their
specific application domain. Urban IoTs, in fact, are designed to support the Smart City vision, which
aims at exploiting the most advanced communication technologies to support added-value services
for the administration of the city and for the citizens. This paper hence provides a comprehensive
survey of the enabling technologies, protocols, and architecture for an urban IoT. Furthermore, the
paper will present and discuss the technical solutions and best-practice guidelines adopted in the
Padova Smart City project, a proof-of-concept deployment of an IoT island in the city of Padova,
Italy, performed in collaboration with the city municipality.

摘要:This paper describes a computational approach to edge detection. The success of the approach
depends on the definition of a comprehensive set of goals for the computation of edge points. These
goals must be precise enough to delimit the desired behavior of the detector while making minimal
assumptions about the form of the solution. We define detection and localization criteria for a class of
edges, and present mathematical forms for these criteria as functionals on the operator impulse
response. A third criterion is then added to ensure that the detector has only one response to a single
edge. We use the criteria in numerical optimization to derive detectors for several common image
features, including step edges. On specializing the analysis to step edges, we find that there is a
natural uncertainty principle between detection and localization performance, which are the two main
goals. With this principle we derive a single operator shape which is optimal at any scale. The
optimal detector has a simple approximate implementation in which edges are marked at maxima in
gradient magnitude of a Gaussian-smoothed image. We extend this simple detector using operators of
several widths to cope with different signal-to-noise ratios in the image. We present a general method,
called feature synthesis, for the fine-to-coarse integration of information from operators at different
scales. Finally we show that step edge detector performance improves considerably as the operator
29
point spread function is extended along the edge.

摘要:Internet security problems remain a major challenge with many security concerns such as
Internet worms, spam, and phishing attacks. Botnets, well-organized distributed network attacks,
consist of a large number of bots that generate huge volumes of spam or launch Distributed Denial of
Service (DDoS) attacks on victim hosts. New emerging botnet attacks degrade the status of Internet
security further. To address these problems, a practical collaborative network security management
system is proposed with an effective collaborative Unified Threat Management (UTM) and traffic
probers. A distributed security overlay network with a centralized security center leverages a
peer-to-peer communication protocol used in the UTMs collaborative module and connects them
virtually to exchange network events and security rules. Security functions for the UTM are
retrofitted to share security rules. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of a
cloud-based security center for network security forensic analysis. We propose using cloud storage to
keep collected traffic data and then processing it with cloud computing platforms to find the
malicious attacks. As a practical example, phishing attack forensic analysis is presented and the
required computing and storage resources are evaluated based on real trace data. The cloud-based
security center can instruct each collaborative UTM and prober to collect events and raw traffic, send
them back for deep analysis, and generate new security rules. These new security rules are enforced
by collaborative UTM and the feedback events of such rules are returned to the security center. By
this type of close-loop control, the collaborative network security management system can identify
and address new distributed attacks more quickly and effectively.

摘要:The use of distributed energy resources is increasingly being pursued as a supplement and an
alternative to large conventional central power stations. The specification of a power-electronic
interface is subject to requirements related not only to the renewable energy source itself but also to
its effects on the power-system operation, especially where the intermittent energy source constitutes
a significant part of the total system capacity. In this paper, new trends in power electronics for the
integration of wind and photovoltaic (PV) power generators are presented. A review of the
appropriate storage-system technology used for the integration of intermittent renewable energy
sources is also introduced. Discussions about common and future trends in renewable energy systems
based on reliability and maturity of each technology are presented

摘要:We study the question of feature sets for robust visual object recognition; adopting linear SVM
based human detection as a test case. After reviewing existing edge and gradient based descriptors,
we show experimentally that grids of histograms of oriented gradient (HOG) descriptors significantly
outperform existing feature sets for human detection. We study the influence of each stage of the
computation on performance, concluding that fine-scale gradients, fine orientation binning, relatively
coarse spatial binning, and high-quality local contrast normalization in overlapping descriptor blocks
are all important for good results. The new approach gives near-perfect separation on the original
MIT pedestrian database, so we introduce a more challenging dataset containing over 1800 annotated
human images with a large range of pose variations and backgrounds.

摘要:5G will have to support a multitude of new applications with a wide variety of requirements,
including higher peak and user data rates, reduced latency, enhanced indoor coverage, increased
number of devices, and so on. The expected traffic growth in 10 or more years from now can be
satisfied by the combined use of more spectrum, higher spectral efficiency, and densification of cells.
The focus of the present article is on advanced techniques for higher spectral efficiency and
improved coverage for cell edge users. We propose a smart combination of small cells, joint
transmission coordinated multipoint (JT CoMP), and massive MIMO to enhance the spectral
efficiency with affordable complexity. We review recent achievements in the transition from
theoretical to practical concepts and note future research directions. We show in measurements with
macro-plus-smallcell scenarios that spectral efficiency can be improved by flexible clustering and
efficient user selection, and that adaptive feedback compression is beneficial to reduce the overhead
significantly. Moreover, we show in measurements that fast feedback reporting combined with
advanced channel prediction are able to mitigate the impairment effects of JT CoMP.

摘要:Big Data are becoming a new technology focus both in science and in industry and motivate
technology shift to data centric architecture and operational models. There is a vital need to define
the basic information/semantic models, architecture components and operational models that together
comprise a so-called Big Data Ecosystem. This paper discusses a nature of Big Data that may
originate from different scientific, industry and social activity domains and proposes improved Big
Data definition that includes the following parts: Big Data properties (also called Big Data 5V:
Volume, Velocity, Variety, Value and Veracity), data models and structures, data analytics,
infrastructure and security. The paper discusses paradigm change from traditional host or service
based to data centric architecture and operational models in Big Data. The Big Data Architecture
Framework (BDAF) is proposed to address all aspects of the Big Data Ecosystem and includes the
following components: Big Data Infrastructure, Big Data Analytics, Data structures and models, Big
Data Lifecycle Management, Big Data Security. The paper analyses requirements to and provides
suggestions how the mentioned above components can address the main Big Data challenges. The
presented work intends to provide a consolidated view of the Big Data phenomena and related
challenges to modern technologies, and initiate wide discussion.

About AAMAS
AAMAS is the leading scientific conference for research in autonomous agents and multiagent
systems. The AAMAS conference series was initiated in 2002 by merging three highly respected
meetings: the International Conference on Multi-Agent Systems (ICMAS); the International
Workshop on Agent Theories, Architectures, and Languages (ATAL); and the International
Conference on Autonomous Agents (AA).
The aim of the joint conference is to provide a single, high-profile, internationally respected
archival forum for scientific research in the theory and practice of autonomous agents and multiagent
systems.
Information for Authors
AAMAS-15 encourages the submission of analytical, empirical, methodological, technological,
and perspective papers. Authors are requested to pay particular attention to discussing how their work
35
relates to the state of the art in autonomous agents and multiagent systems research, as evidenced in,
for example, previous editions of AAMAS and related conferences. All submissions will be
rigorously peer reviewed and evaluated on the basis of the overall quality of their technical
contribution, including criteria such as originality, soundness, relevance, significance, quality of
presentation, and understanding of the state of the art.
AAMAS 2015, the fourteenth conference in the AAMAS series, seeks the submission of high-quality
papers. The length of each paper is limited to 8 pages excluding the bibliographic references, except
for papers submitted to the Blue Sky Ideas track, which are limited to 4 pages in length including the
references. Reviewing will be double-blind, so authors must avoid including anything in their papers
that can be used to identify them. Particular attention should be given to the way previous work is
referred to; other frequent sources of breach of anonymity are the acknowledgements, project names,
and links to supplementary material on the Web. Papers that are over the page limit or identify the
authors may be rejected without reviewing. Please note that submitting an abstract is required to
submit a full paper. However, the abstracts will not be reviewed and full papers must be submitted for
the review process to begin. All work must be original, i.e., it must not have appeared in the
proceedings of an archival conference, journal, or book, and may not be under review for another
archival conference or journal. In addition to submissions in the main track, AAMAS 2015 will be
soliciting submissions to four special tracks: (1) Innovative Applications, (2) Robotics, (3) Virtual
Agents and Humans, and (4) Blue Sky Ideas. The review process for the special tracks will be similar
to the main track, but with program committee members specially selected for each track. All papers
accepted to the special tracks will be included in the proceedings.

Laminated Shell Structures with DESICOS Workshop
会议时间:25 - 27 March 2015
会议地点:Location: Braunschweig, Germany
会议简介:The project DESICOS (New Robust DESign Guideline for Imperfection Sensitive
COmposite Launcher Structures) is a Level 1 Project within the 7th Framework Programme (No.
282522) and will run for 3 years (February 2012 – January 2015).
The Space industry demand for lighter and cheaper launcher transport systems. DESICOS
contributes to these aims by a new design approach for imperfection sensitive composite launcher
structures, exploiting the worst imperfection idea efficiently: the Single Perturbation Load Approach.
Currently, imperfection sensitive shell structures prone to buckling are designed according the NASA
SP 8007 guideline using the conservative lower bound curve. The guideline dates from 1968, and the
structural behaviour of composite material is not considered appropriately, in particular since the
imperfection sensitivity of shells made from such materials depends on the lay-up design. The
buckling loads of CFRP structures may vary by a factor of about 3 just by changing the lay-up. This
is not considered in the NASA SP 8007, which allows designing only so called "black metal"
structures. Here is a high need for a new precise and fast design approach for imperfection sensitive
composite structures which allows significant reduction of structural weight and design cost. For
most relevant architectures of cylindrical and conical launcher structures (monolithic, sandwich without and with holes) DESICOS will investigate a combined methodology from the Single
Perturbation Load approach and a specific stochastic approach which guarantees an effective and
robust design. A recent investigation demonstrated, that an axially loaded unstiffened cylinder, which
is disturbed by a large enough single perturbation load, is leading directly to the design buckling load
45% higher compared with the respective NASA SP 8007 design. All results will be summarized in a
handbook for the design imperfection sensitive composite structures. The potential will be
demonstrated within different driven use cases.

11. 会议名称:7th International Conference on Recent Advances in Space Technologies – RAST
2015
会议时间:16 - 19 June 2015
会议地点:Location: Istanbul, Turkey
会议简介: Preamble: Nontraditional space initiatives have been emerging in recent years from the
private sector, with seemingly exotic objectives such as space tourism and asteroid mining. They are
indicative of a new level of maturity and innovation in space technology and understanding. These
developments have set the stage for the seventh RAST Conference (RAST2015), for which the theme
was decided as "EMERGING PRIVATE SPACE". RAST2015 will be held on 16-19 June 2015 again
in Istanbul. RAST Conferences are open to all areas of space although each conference tries to focus
on its specific theme as well.
Objectives: Commercial space has been around for several decades, in space communications,
Earth observation and launch services. However, other commercial space initiatives have been
emerging recently, with completely different and "out of this World" goals. Space tourism, asteroid
mining and certain curiosity driven objectives are prime areas of those initiatives. In addition to
technological feasibility, there are a number of other issues which require careful analysis. While
entrepreneurs may be mostly concerned with financial, operational and market viability, governments
and international institutions must be prepared to deal with legal and regulatory matters. Then there
are the physiological and psychological issues regarding humans in space. International space law
will need new interpretations and extensions to cover probable disputes which are already being
pronounced, such as unrestricted access to space resources.
RAST2015 has the main objective of providing a forum for the presentation and review of recent
developments in private and nontraditional space initiatives, that is, developing and using space
technologies for objectives which have hitherto been considered exotic or unconventional, including
new ways of accessing space with humans or robots. It has always been the wish and the goal of the
organizers to make RAST 2015 a premier event in space technology developments especially those
on the way to near future deployment and of interest to a large part of the space community.
Participants: The conference should be attractive for everyone interested in new, exotic and
extravagant space developments, including those from universities, research organizations, space
companies, government agencies, relevant international institutions, as well as media and the general
public. The conference should serve as an opportunity for networking and fruitful exchange with
fellow participants on topics of mutual interest.

14. 会议名称:22nd AIAA Lighter-Than-Air Systems Technology Conference
会议时间:22-26 June 2015 D
会议地点:allas, Texas
会议简介:Interest in the potential of lighter-than-air (LTA) systems to meet modern requirements
continues to grow as fuel prices and the cost of conventional aircraft transportation infrastructures
increase. An added incentive to airship and aerostat development comes from the worldwide concern
over the negative environmental effects of jet aircraft on the global climate. LTA systems have
become the subject of renewed interest due to their unique qualities of low energy (propulsion) needs
and significant static lift, which hold potential for commercial as well as intelligence, surveillance,
and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. New hybrid LTA systems that incorporate a substantial degree of
dynamic lift also offer great promise for providing additional air transportation services, and access
to remote regions. At the same time, major advances are being made in the development of key
enabling technologies essential to the creation and operation of long endurance, unmanned LTA
systems. These topics and more will be explored by industry experts at the 21st AIAA
Lighter-Than-Air Systems Technology Conference.

3. 会议名称:African Security: The East African Maritime Security Summit
会议时间: Djibouti Palace Kempinski Djibouti, Djibouti, South Africa
会议地点:February 17-19, 2015
会议简介:Following a period of relative calm with no successful acts of piracy since 2012,
International Forces from the Big 3 (EU NAVFOR’s Operation ATALANTA, NATO’s OCEAN
SHIELD and Combined Maritime Forces TASK FORCE 151) are expected to reduce their assets in
the region. A necessary transition is being planned in order to ensure the nations of the region
gradually step up to augment this military presence.
AFSEC 15 seeks to reassess the maritime security situation in the Gulf of Aden and the Bab
al-Mandeb Strait. Using the 2009 Djibouti Code of Conduct concerning the Repression of Piracy and
Armed Robbery against Ships in the Western Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden as a conceptual
framework, the conference hopes to examine lessons learned over the past 5 years and develop
strategies for future cooperation in broader areas of maritime security, beyond that of piracy.
Djibouti, home to military facilities including Japan, France, and America, as well as
international organisation including IGAD and EUCAP NESTOR, is the ideal venue for this
conference. The country acts as an international maritime and military laboratory where new forms
of cooperation are being developed. The Djibouti Regional Maritime Training Centre is due to be
opened here in February 2015, and will host the conference Focus Day on regional cooperation and
training.

5. 会议名称:Airborne ISR & C2 Battle Management
会议时间:March 10-12, 2015
会议地点:Thistle Marble Arch , London, United Kingdom
会议简介:During our inaugural AISR and C2BM conference earlier this year, nobody could have
predicted the operational challenges currently facing NATO and partner nations, with the rapid rise to
prominence of ISIS and the dramatic situation in Eastern Europe. The importance of accurate and
timely intelligence provision and dissemination cannot be understated, but nor can the dangers of a
reactionary approach to strategic planning. Consequently, AISR&C2BM will pose the question
“What’s next for Joint ISR” - for NATO as an organisation, for individual NATO states and for
non-member partner nations - examining operational demands, desired capabilities and asset
sustainment/support over the next five years.
The aim: To deliver a comprehensive assessment from leading NATO powers and partner
nations on the challenges and opportunities for ISR provision beyond the current headlines, in order
to provide insight into the medium-term actions to achieve a tangible step-change in co-operation and
capability.
Take a front row seat as leading military experts explore how a proliferation of ISR assets in the
past decade has led to the need for streamlined Process Exploitation and Dissemination to maximise
collected data for informed decision making, as well as examining the complexities of working with
non-traditional partners and the limitations of interoperability and intelligence sharing.

7. 会议名称:Lightweight Tactical Vehicle Summit
会议时间:March 16-18, 2015
会议地点:Detroit, Michigan
会议简介:The limited military ground presence currently has allowed the US Army and US Marine
Corps to give attention to a long withstanding issue: upgrading its light tactical vehicle fleet. Up until
this point, much of what was done to the vehicle fleet during recent operations in Iraq and
Afghanistan would be considered by most to be a temporary solution.
As a result, the JLTV program is now headed for production, the AMPV program is approaching the
final stages, the ULCV program is in pre-solicitation, and the HMMWV modernization initiative is
on the horizon. However, not without challenges….
Identifying best value components is difficult to define
Assessing the full spectrum of sub contractor capabilities is easier said than done and, speed to
market is essential as conflicts abroad percolate
Can you help achieve these objectives? Whether an active military stakeholder, an OEM
spearheading the design, or a supplier with cutting edge solutions, don’t miss this rare opportunity to
address the needs of not only the current projects but those coming in the near future by joining us
for the Lightweight Tactical Vehicles Summit 2015.

会议简介: As the recently unveiled US Army operating concept suggests, the principle of the future
is to ‘win in a complex world’. The hierarchical structure of superior capability and technology that
Western allied forces retain in comparison to the enemy that surrounds us is becoming increasingly
flat. This is due to the inherent versatility and increasing technological and strategic aptitudes that
characterise the future enemy.
Future Artillery 2015 will address this issue and discuss realistic solutions to ensure that
international forces remain proactive and adaptable in order to fight the unknown. This will include
the need to synchronize firepower in joint operations, enhance training and incorporate innovative
communication and precision technology to effectively prepare for what the future has to bring.

11. 会议名称:Smart Policing Summit 2015
会议时间:April 27-29, 2015
会议地点:Washington, DC
会议简介: Limited staffing and budget cuts have pressured law enforcement agencies to adopt
innovative methods in order to increase case-closure rates. Ensuring the safety of officers as well as
the citizens they protect is the number one priority for law enforcement agencies. Finding the least
expensive and most efficient way to do so is essentially the primary goal. Smart Policing involves
defining and utilizing the paramount way to increase efficiency for law enforcement agencies. In this
day and age, Chiefs of Police, Head Crime Analysts and Key Commanders of Law Enforcement
agencies are pioneering a movement using technology, research and new policy.
Join us as we explore the significant progress of Law Enforcement agencies in improving their
51
case-closure rates and adopting new technologies. We are designing this conference to provide a
platform that gives these ever-changing agencies the knowledge and tools they will need to reduce
crime and increase efficiency.
With the advancements in technology, there is the introduction of Body-Worn Cameras, UAS
and Gunshot Location Systems. The focus of leaders has shifted to making these technologies a part
of the day-to-day operations of an officer, rather than getting in their way. However, as technology
evolves, privacy and ease of use concerns arise.
If these issues are your priorities, you won’t want to miss IDGA’s Smart Policing Summit 2015
as we unravel the key issues in Law Enforcement and Smart Policing today and equip you with the
tools you need to take on the new age of policing.

12. 会议名称:Interoperable Open Architecture
会议时间:April 29-1, 2015
会议地点:London, UK
会 议 简 介 : The advantages of using interoperable open architecture for the development,
procurement and use of technology are manifest in those programmes where it has been successfully
rolled out. However, despite some successes within these US and UK programmes, there are still
many that are not convinced that implementing such architectures is worth the required structural
transformation, time and money.
The Interoperable Open Architecture 2015 conference argues that common standards and open
architectures have the potential to revolutionise the cost and efficiency of procurement and will cover
the following key areas:
The technical detail behind the development of standards and common requirements to enable
‘plug and play’
Implementing open architecture for new platforms and programmes: Lessons learned from the
flagship efforts in the US and UK
The potential for transformation of defence procurement and the benefits and disadvantages of
open architecture for both the military and industry communities
Ease of use and operator effectiveness on the front line
Cross-over practices and lessons-learned from the civilian sphere as open architectures are
rolled out across land, air and naval systems
The benefits of open architectures also extend to the front line technology users. An
interoperable open architecture can de-clutter a vehicle by enabling single screen control of multiple
systems and common standards shared between allies can improve interoperability. While it might
seem a pipe dream at the moment, a totally interoperable open architecture will eventually empower
the operator to plug and play technology based on immediate mission parameters.
Importantly interoperable open architecture is a concept that applies across different domains. Data
model construction, architectural principles and layout are just some of the transferable elements that
span any architecture effort whether it be for vehicles, planes or robotics.
This year the conference will examine these principles whilst refocusing on the milestones reached in
recent years.

出处:PROG PHOTOVOLTAICS 21 (1): 72-76 JAN 2013
摘要:Using vacuum process, we fabricated Cu2ZnSnS4 solar cells with 8.4% efficiency, a number
independently certified by an external, accredited laboratory. This is the highest efficiency reported
for pure sulfide Cu2ZnSnS4 prepared by any method. Consistent with literature, the optimal
composition is Cu-poor and Zn-rich despite the precipitation of secondary phases (e.g., ZnS). Despite
a very thin absorber thickness (similar to 600 nm), a reasonably good short-circuit current was
obtained. Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements suggest a minority carrier-diffusion
length on the order of several hundreds of nanometers and relatively good collection of
photo-carriers across the entire absorber thickness. Copyright (C) 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

作者:SU XJ; SHI P; WU LG; SONG YD
出处:IEEE TRANS FUZZY SYST 20 (6): 1114-1129 DEC 2012
摘要:In this paper, the problem of l(2)-l(infinity) filtering for a class of discrete-timeTakagi-Sugeno
(T-S) fuzzy time-varying delay systems is studied. Our attention is focused on the design of full-and
reduced-order filters that guarantee the filtering error system to be asymptotically stable with a
prescribed H-infinity performance. Sufficient conditions for the obtained filtering error system are
proposed by applying an input-output approach and a two-term approximation method, which is
employed to approximate the time-varying delay. The corresponding full-and reduced-order filter
design is cast into a convex optimization problem, which can be efficiently solved by standard
numerical algorithms. Finally, simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the
proposed approaches.

摘要:In this paper, two online schemes for an integrated design of fault-tolerant control (FTC)
systems with application to Tennessee Eastman (TE) benchmark are proposed. Based on the
data-driven design of the proposed fault-tolerant architecture whose core is an observer/residual
generator based realization of the Youla parameterization of all stabilization controllers, FTC is
achieved by an adaptive residual generator for the online identification of the fault diagnosis relevant
vectors, and an iterative optimization method for system performance enhancement. The
performance and effectiveness of the proposed schemes are demonstrated through the TE benchmark
model.

题目:LIQUID ELECTROLYTE LITHIUM/SULFUR BATTERY: FUNDAMENTAL CHEMISTRY,
PROBLEMS, AND SOLUTIONS
作者:ZHANG SS
出处:J POWER SOURCES 231: 153-162 JUN 1 2013
摘要:Lithium/sulfur (Li/S) battery has a 3-5 fold higher theoretical energy density than state-of-art
lithium-ion batteries, and research has been ongoing for more than three decades. However, the
commercialization of Li/S battery still cannot be realized due to many problematic issues, including
short cycle life, low cycling efficiency, poor safety and a high self-discharge rate. All these issues are
related to the dissolution of lithium polysulfide (PS), the series of sulfur reduction intermediates, in
liquid electrolyte and to resulting parasitic reactions with the lithium anode and electrolyte
components. On the other hand, the dissolution of PS is essential for the performance of a Li/S cell.
Without dissolution of PS, the Li/S cell cannot operate progressively due to the non-conductive
nature of elemental sulfur and its reduction products. In this review article, we start with the
fundamental chemistry of elemental sulfur in order to discuss the problems and solutions of liquid
electrolyte Li/S battery. Published by Elsevier B.V.

出处:IEEE TRANS PATT ANAL MACH INT 34 (11): 2274-2281 NOV 2012
摘要:Computer vision applications have come to rely increasingly on superpixels in recent years,
but it is not always clear what constitutes a good superpixel algorithm. In an effort to understand the
benefits and drawbacks of existing methods, we empirically compare five state-of-the-art superpixel
algorithms for their ability to adhere to image boundaries, speed, memory efficiency, and their impact
on segmentation performance. We then introduce a new superpixel algorithm, simple linear iterative
clustering (SLIC), which adapts a k-means clustering approach to efficiently generate superpixels.
Despite its simplicity, SLIC adheres to boundaries as well as or better than previous methods. At the
same time, it is faster and more memory efficient, improves segmentation performance, and is
straightforward to extend to supervoxel generation.

题 目 :A NOVEL CONTROL DESIGN ON DISCRETE-TIME TAKAGI-SUGENO FUZZY
SYSTEMS WITH TIME-VARYING DELAYS
作者:SU XJ; SHI P; WU LG; SONG YD
出处:IEEE TRANS FUZZY SYST 21 (4): 655-671 AUG 2013
摘要:This paper focuses on analyzing a new model transformation of discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno
(T-S) fuzzy systems with time-varying delays and applying it to dynamic output feedback (DOF)
controller design. A new comparison model is proposed by employing a new approximation for
time-varying delay state, and then, a delay partitioning method is used to analyze the scaled small
gain of this comparison model. A sufficient condition on discrete-time T-S fuzzy systems with
time-varying delays, which guarantees the corresponding closed-loop system to be asymptotically
stable and has an induced l(2) disturbance attenuation performance, is derived by employing the
scaled small-gain theorem. Then, the solvability condition for the induced l(2) DOF control is also
established, by which the DOF controller can be solved as linear matrix inequality optimization
problems. Finally, examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

摘要:The remarkable potential for inexpensive upscale of solution processing technologies is
expected to enable chalcogenide-based photovoltaic systems to become more widely adopted to meet
worldwide energy needs. Here, we report a thin-film solar cell with solution-processed
Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)(2) (CIGS) absorber. The power conversion efficiency of 15.2% is the highest
published value for a pure solution deposition technique for any photovoltaic absorber material and is
on par with the best nonvacuum-processed CIGS devices. We compare the performance of our cell
with a world champion vacuum-deposited CIGS cell and perform detailed characterization, such as
biased quantum efficiency, temperature-dependent electrical measurement, time-resolved
photoluminescence, and capacitance spectroscopy. Copyright (C) 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

题 目 :H-INFINITY STEP TRACKING CONTROL FOR NETWORKED DISCRETE-TIME
NONLINEAR SYSTEMS WITH INTEGRAL AND PREDICTIVE ACTIONS
作者:ZHANG H; SHI Y; LIU MX
出处:IEEE TRANS IND INFORM 9 (1): 337-345 FEB 2013
摘要:This paper investigates the step tracking control problem for discrete-time nonlinear systems in
a networked environment with a limited capacity. The nonlinear system is represented by a
Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy system, and a network-induced delay is incorporated in the modeling of
the connection link. In order to compensate for the network link effects and eliminate the tracking
error, we employ some techniques mainly used in the predictive control and the integral control.
Moreover, a quadratic cost function which includes terms related to the performance of the system
and the actuating capacity is used. We assume that the lumped network-induced delay lies within a
known set, and that the occurrence probability for each element in the set is known a priori. Then, the
delay information will be incorporated into the delay-dependent tracking controllers. The parameters
for the tracking controller are derived by solving an optimization problem. A networked inverted
pendulum is used to illustrate the efficacy of the proposed design method.

题目:A REVIEW ON THE KEY ISSUES FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERY MANAGEMENT IN
ELECTRIC VEHICLES
作者:LU LG; HAN XB; LI JQ; HUA JF; OUYANG MG
出处:J POWER SOURCES 226: 272-288 MAR 15 2013
摘要:Compared with other commonly used batteries, lithium-ion batteries are featured by high
energy density, high power density, long service life and environmental friendliness and thus have
found wide application in the area of consumer electronics. However, lithium-ion batteries for
vehicles have high capacity and large serial-parallel numbers, which, coupled with such problems as
safety, durability, uniformity and cost, imposes limitations on the wide application of lithium-ion
batteries in the vehicle. The narrow area in which lithium-ion batteries operate with safety and
reliability necessitates the effective control and management of battery management system. This
present paper, through the analysis of literature and in combination with our practical experience,
60
gives a brief introduction to the composition of the battery management system (BMS) and its key
issues such as battery cell voltage measurement, battery states estimation, battery uniformity and
equalization, battery fault diagnosis and so on, in the hope of providing some inspirations to the
design and research of the battery management system. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

出处:INT J HEAT MASS TRANSFER 57 (2): 582-594 FEB 2013
摘要:Utilizing nanofluids as an advanced kind of liquid mixture with a small concentration of
nanometer-sized solid particles in suspension is a relatively new field, which is less than two decades
old. The aim of this review paper is the investigation of the nanofluids' applications in solar thermal
engineering systems. The shortage of fossil fuels and environmental considerations motivated the
researchers to use alternative energy sources such as solar energy. Therefore, it is essential to enhance
the efficiency and performance of the solar thermal systems. Nearly all of the former works
conducted on the applications of nanofluids in solar energy is regarding their applications in
collectors and solar water heaters. Therefore, a major part of this review paper allocated to the effects
of nanofluids on the performance of solar collectors and solar water heaters from the efficiency,
economic and environmental considerations viewpoints. In addition, some reported works on the
applications of nanofluids in thermal energy storage, solar cells, and solar stills are reviewed.
Subsequently, some suggestions are made to use the nanofluids in different solar thermal systems
such as photovoltaic/thermal systems, solar ponds, solar thermoelectric cells, and so on. Finally, the
challenges of using nanofluids in solar energy devices are discussed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights

switches between two different values in a random way with given probability. The addressed
synchronization control problem is first formulated as an exponentially mean-square stabilization
problem for a new class of dynamical networks that involve both the multiple probabilistic interval
61
delays (MPIDs) and the sector-bounded nonlinearities (SBNs). Then, a novel Lyapunov functional is
constructed to obtain sufficient conditions under which the dynamical network is exponentially
mean-square stable. Both Gronwall's inequality and Jenson integral inequality are utilized to
substantially simplify the derivation of the main results. Subsequently, a set of sampled-data
synchronization controllers is designed in terms of the solution to certain matrix inequalities that can
be solved effectively by using available software. Finally, a numerical simulation example is
employed to show the effectiveness of the proposed sampled-data synchronization control scheme.

摘要:The effects of six types of aprotic organic solvents on the discharge performance and discharge
products in Li-O-2 batteries are systematically investigated. A large amount of Li2O2 is identified in
the air electrodes discharged in glyme-based electrolytes, while only a small amount of Li2O2 is
detected in the air electrodes discharged in the electrolytes of nitrile, ionic liquid, phosphate, and
sulfoxide. Li2CO3 and LiF are also found as byproducts whose compositions are related to the
solvents. Li2CO3 is produced from oxidation and decomposition of the solvent, not from the
oxidation of the carbon-based air electrode, as revealed by using a C-13-labeled carbon electrode and
the solid-state C-13-magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance technique. LiF in the
discharge products can be attributed to the attack of superoxide radical anions to the Teflon binder
and/or the F-containing imide salt. The formation of these byproducts will significantly reduce the
Coulombic efficiency and cycle life of the Li-air batteries. Among the studied solvents, dibutyl
diglyme is the suitable solvent for Li-O-2 batteries based on its overall properties. However, better
electrolytes that can ensure the formation of Li2O2 but minimize other reaction products need to be
further investigated for long cycling rechargeable Li-air batteries. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights

题目:THE OUTLOOK FOR IMPROVED CARBON CAPTURE TECHNOLOGY
作者:RUBIN ES; MANTRIPRAGADA H; MARKS A; VERSTEEG P; KITCHIN J
出处:PROG ENERG COMBUST SCI 38 (5): 630-671 OCT 2012
摘要:Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is widely seen as a critical technology for reducing
atmospheric emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from power plants and other large industrial
62
facilities, which are major sources of greenhouse gas emissions linked to global climate change.
However, the high cost and energy requirements of current CO2 capture processes are major barriers
to their use. This paper assesses the outlook for improved, lower-cost technologies for each of the
three major approaches to CO2 capture, namely, post-combustion, pre-combustion and
oxy-combustion capture. The advantages and limitations of each of method are discussed, along with
the current status of projects and processes at various stages in the development cycle. We then
review a variety of "roadmaps" developed by governmental and private-sector organizations to
project the commercial roll-out and deployment of advanced capture technologies. For perspective,
we also review recent experience with R&D programs to develop lower-cost technologies for SO2
and NOx capture at coal-fired power plants. For perspective on projected cost reductions for CO2
capture we further review past experience in cost trends for SO2 and NOx capture systems. The key
insight for improved carbon capture technology is that achieving significant cost reductions will
require not only a vigorous and sustained level of research and development (R&D), but also a
substantial level of commercial deployment, which, in turn, requires a significant market for CO2
capture technologies. At present such a market does not yet exist. While various incentive programs
can accelerate the development and deployment of improved CO2 capture systems, government
actions that significantly limit CO2 emissions to the atmosphere ultimately are needed to realize
substantial and sustained reductions in the future cost of CO2 capture. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All

题 目 :DISTRIBUTED H-INFINITY FILTERING FOR A CLASS OF MARKOVIAN JUMP
NONLINEAR TIME-DELAY SYSTEMS OVER LOSSY SENSOR NETWORKS
作者:DONG HL; WANG ZD; GAO HJ
出处:IEEE TRANS IND ELECTRON 60 (10): 4665-4672 OCT 2013
摘要:This paper is concerned with the distributed H-infinity filtering problem for a class of
discrete-time Markovian jump nonlinear time-delay systems with deficient statistics of mode
transitions. The system measurements are collected through a lossy sensor network subject to
randomly occurring quantization errors and randomly occurring packet dropouts. The description of
deficient statistics of mode transitions that account for known, unknown, and uncertain transition
probabilities is comprehensive. A distributed filter design scheme is outlined by explicitly
characterizing the filter gains in terms of some matrix inequalities. Simulation results demonstrate
the effectiveness of the proposed filtering scheme.

1.标题:Theory of universal incoherent metallic transport
作者:Sean A. Hartnoll
摘要:The anomalous transport of important materials such as high-temperature superconductors and
other ‘bad metals’ is not well understood theoretically. In an incoherent metal, transport is controlled
by the collective diffusion of energy and charge rather than by quasiparticle or momentum relaxation.
Here, we explore the possibility of a universal bound D ≳ ℏνF2/(kBT) on the underlying diffusion
constants in an incoherent metal. Such a bound is loosely motivated by results from holographic
duality, the uncertainty principle and measurements of diffusion in strongly interacting non-metallic
systems. Metals close to saturating this bound are shown to have a linear-in-temperature resistivity
with an underlying dissipative timescale matching that recently deduced from experimental data on a
wide range of metals. This bound may therefore be responsible for the ubiquitous appearance of
high-temperature regimes in metals with T-linear resistivity. To establish this calls for direct
measurements of diffusive processes and of charge susceptibilities in incoherent metals.

Yin, H. T. Quan & Kihwan Kim
摘要:The Jarzynski equality relates the free-energy difference between two equilibrium states to the
work done on a system through far-from-equilibrium processes—a milestone that builds on the
pioneering work of Clausius and Kelvin. Although experimental tests of the equality have been
performed in the classical regime, the quantum Jarzynski equality has not yet been fully verified
owing to experimental challenges in measuring work and work distributions in a quantum system.
Here, we report an experimental test of the quantum Jarzynski equality with a single 171Yb+ ion
trapped in a harmonic potential. We perform projective measurements to obtain phonon distributions
of the initial thermal state. We then apply a laser-induced force to the projected energy eigenstate and
find transition probabilities to final energy eigenstates after the work is done. By varying the speed
with which we apply the force from the equilibrium to the far-from-equilibrium regime, we verify the
quantum Jarzynski equality in an isolated system.

摘要:Cooper pairing in the iron-based high-Tc superconductors1, 2, 3 is often conjectured to involve
bosonic fluctuations. Among the candidates are antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations1, 4, 5 and
d-orbital fluctuations amplified by phonons6, 7. Any such electron–boson interaction should alter
the electron’s ‘self-energy’, and then become detectable through consequent modifications in the
energy dependence of the electron’s momentum and lifetime8, 9, 10. Here we introduce a novel
64
theoretical/experimental approach aimed at uniquely identifying the relevant fluctuations of
iron-based superconductors by measuring effects of their self-energy. We use innovative quasiparticle
interference (QPI) imaging11 techniques in LiFeAs to reveal strongly momentum-space anisotropic
self-energy signatures that are focused along the Fe–Fe (interband scattering) direction, where the
spin fluctuations of LiFeAs are concentrated. These effects coincide in energy with perturbations to
the density of states N(ω) usually associated with the Cooper pairing interaction. We show that all the
measured phenomena comprise the predicted QPI ‘fingerprint’ of a self-energy due to
antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations, thereby distinguishing them as the predominant electron–boson
interaction.

摘要:Creating, imaging, and transforming the topological charge1, 2 in a superconductor3, a
superfluid4, 5, a system of cold atoms6, or a soft ferromagnet7, 8, 9 is a difficult—if not
impossible—task because of the shortness of the length scales and lack of control. The length scale
and softness of defects in liquid crystals allow the easy observation of charges, but it is difficult to
control charge creation. Here we demonstrate full control over the creation, manipulation and
analysis of topological charges that are pinned to a microfibre in a nematic liquid crystal. Oppositely
charged pairs are created through the Kibble–Zurek mechanism10, 11 by applying a laser-induced
local temperature quench in the presence of symmetry-breaking boundaries. The pairs are long-lived,
oppositely charged rings or points that either attract and annihilate, or form a long-lived,
charge-neutral loop made of two segments with a fractional topological charge.

摘要:Sixty years ago, Karplus and Luttinger pointed out that quantum particles moving on a lattice
could acquire an anomalous transverse velocity in response to a force, providing an explanation for
the unusual Hall effect in ferromagnetic metals1. A striking manifestation of this transverse transport
was then revealed in the quantum Hall effect2 where the plateaux depicted by the Hall conductivity
were attributed to a topological invariant characterizing the Bloch bands: the Chern number3. Until
now, topological transport associated with non-zero Chern numbers has only been observed in
electronic systems2, 4, 5. Here we use the transverse deflection of an atomic cloud in response to an
optical gradient to measure the Chern number of artificially generated Hofstadter bands6. These
topological bands are very flat and thus constitute good candidates for the realization of fractional
Chern insulators7. Combining these deflection measurements with the determination of the band
populations, we obtain an experimental value for the Chern number of the lowest band νexp =
0.99(5). This first Chern-number measurement in a non-electronic system is facilitated by an
all-optical artificial gauge field scheme, generating uniform flux in optical superlattices.

摘 要 : Quantum magnets have occupied the fertile ground between many-body theory and
low-temperature experiments on real materials since the early days of quantum mechanics. However,
our understanding of even deceptively simple systems of interacting spin-1/2 particles is far from
complete. The quantum square-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet, for example, exhibits a striking
anomaly of hitherto unknown origin in its magnetic excitation spectrum. This quantum effect
manifests itself for excitations propagating with the specific wavevector (π, 0). We use polarized
neutron spectroscopy to fully characterize the magnetic fluctuations in the metal-organic compound
Cu(DCOO)2⋅4D2O, a known realization of the quantum square-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet
model. Our experiments reveal an isotropic excitation continuum at the anomaly, which we analyse
theoretically using Gutzwiller-projected trial wavefunctions. The excitation continuum is accounted
for by the existence of spatially extended pairs of fractional S = 1/2 quasiparticles, 2D analogues of
1D spinons. Away from the anomalous wavevector, these fractional excitations are bound and form
conventional magnons. Our results establish the existence of fractional quasiparticles in the
high-energy spectrum of a quasi-two-dimensional antiferromagnet, even in the absence of frustration.

摘要:The extraordinary strength, stiffness1 and lightness of graphene have generated great
expectations of its application in flexible electronics and as a mechanical reinforcement agent.
However, the presence of lattice defects, unavoidable in sheets obtained by scalable routes, might
degrade its mechanical properties2, 3. Here we report a systematic study on the elastic modulus and
strength of graphene with a controlled density of defects. Counter-intuitively, the in-plane Young’s
modulus increases with increasing defect density up to almost twice the initial value for a vacancy
content of ~0.2%. For a higher density of vacancies, the elastic modulus decreases with defect
inclusions. The initial increase in Young’s modulus is explained in terms of a dependence of the
elastic coefficients on the momentum of flexural modes predicted for two-dimensional membranes4,
5. In contrast, the fracture strength decreases with defect density according to standard fracture
continuum models. These quantitative structure–property relationships, measured in atmospheric
conditions, are of fundamental and technological relevance and provide guidance for applications in
which graphene mechanics represents a disruptive improvement.

摘要:The electronic band structure of a material can acquire interesting topological properties in the
presence of a magnetic field or as a result of the spin–orbit coupling1, 2, 3. We study graphene on Ir,
66
with Pb monolayer islands intercalated between the graphene sheet and the Ir surface. Although the
graphene layer is structurally unaffected by the presence of the Pb islands, its electronic properties
change markedly, with regularly spaced resonances appearing. We interpret these resonances as the
effect of a strong and spatially modulated spin–orbit coupling, induced in graphene by the Pb
monolayer. As well as confined electronic states, the electronic spectrum has a series of gaps with
non-trivial topological properties, resembling a realization of the quantum spin Hall effect proposed
by Bernevig and Zhang4.

摘要:Weakly bound molecules have physical properties without atomic analogues, even as the bond
length approaches dissociation. For instance, the internal symmetries of homonuclear diatomic
molecules result in the formation of two-body superradiant and subradiant excited states. Whereas
superradiance1, 2, 3 has been demonstrated in a variety of systems, subradiance4, 5, 6 is more
elusive owing to the inherently weak interaction with the environment. Here we characterize the
properties of deeply subradiant molecular states with intrinsic quality factors exceeding 1013 via
precise optical spectroscopy with the longest molecule–light coherent interaction times to date. We
find that two competing effects limit the lifetimes of the subradiant molecules, with different
asymptotic behaviours. The first is radiative decay via weak magnetic-dipole and electric-quadrupole
interactions. We prove that its rate increases quadratically with the bond length, confirming quantum
mechanical predictions. The second is non-radiative decay through weak gyroscopic predissociation,
with a rate proportional to the vibrational mode spacing and sensitive to short-range physics. This
work bridges the gap between atomic and molecular metrology based on lattice-clock techniques7,
enhancing our understanding of long-range interatomic interactions.

摘要:From bone and wood to concrete and carbon fibre, composites are ubiquitous natural and
synthetic materials. Eshelby’s inclusion theory describes how macroscopic stress fields couple to
isolated microscopic inclusions, allowing prediction of a composite’s bulk mechanical properties
from a knowledge of its microstructure. It has been extended to describe a wide variety of
phenomena from solid fracture to cell adhesion. Here, we show experimentally and theoretically that
Eshelby’s theory breaks down for small liquid inclusions in a soft solid. In this limit, an isolated
droplet’s deformation is strongly size-dependent, with the smallest droplets mimicking the behaviour
of solid inclusions. Furthermore, in opposition to the predictions of conventional composite theory,
we find that finite concentrations of small liquid inclusions enhance the stiffness of soft solids. A
straightforward extension of Eshelby’s theory, accounting for the surface tension of the solid–liquid
interface, explains our experimental observations. The counterintuitive stiffening of solids by fluid
inclusions is expected whenever inclusion radii are smaller than an elastocapillary length, given by
the ratio of the surface tension to Young’s modulus of the solid matrix. These results suggest that
67
surface tension can be a simple and effective mechanism to cloak the far-field elastic signature of
inclusions.

X-rays
作者:Roberta Sessoli, Marie-Emmanuelle Boulon, Andrea Caneschi, Matteo Mannini, Lorenzo
Poggini, Fabrice Wilhelm & Andrei Rogalev
摘 要 : Magneto-chiral dichroism is a non-reciprocal—that is, directional—effect observed in
magnetized chiral systems, featuring an unbalanced absorption of unpolarized light depending on the
direction of the magnetization. Despite the fundamental interest in a phenomenon breaking both
parity and time-reversal symmetries, magneto-chiral dichroism is one of the least investigated aspects
of light–matter interaction most likely because of the weakness of the effect in most reported
experiments. Here we have exploited the element selectivity of hard X-ray radiation to investigate the
magneto-chiral properties of enantiopure crystals of two isostructural molecular helicoidal chains
comprising either cobalt(II) or manganese(II) ions. A strong magneto-chiral dichroism, with Kuhn
asymmetry of the order of a few per cent, has been observed in the cobalt chains system, whereas it is
practically absent for the manganese derivative. The spectral features of the X-ray magneto-chiral
dichroism signal differ significantly from the natural and magnetic dichroic contributions and have
been rationalized here using the multipolar expansion of matter–radiation interaction.

摘要:The superconducting fluctuation effect, due to preformed Cooper pairs above the critical
temperature Tc, has been generally understood by the standard Gaussian fluctuation theories in most
superconductors1. The transverse thermoelectric (Nernst) effect is particularly sensitive to the
fluctuations, and the large Nernst signal found in the pseudogap regime of the underdoped cuprates2,
3 has raised much debate. Here we report on the observation of a colossal Nernst signal due to the
superconducting fluctuations in the heavy-fermion superconductor URu2Si2. The Nernst coefficient
is anomalously enhanced (by a factor of ~106) as compared with the theoretically expected value of
the Gaussian fluctuations. Moreover, contrary to the conventional wisdom, the enhancement is more
significant with a reduction of the impurity scattering rate. This unconventional Nernst effect
intimately reflects the highly unusual superconducting state of URu2Si2. The results invoke possible
chiral or Berry-phase fluctuations associated with the broken time-reversal symmetry4, 5, 6, 7 of the
superconducting order parameter.

摘要:The energy spectrum of common two-dimensional electron gases consists of a harmonic (that
is, equidistant) ladder of Landau levels, thus preventing the possibility of optically addressing
individual transitions. In graphene, however, owing to its non-harmonic spectrum, individual levels
can be addressed selectively. Here, we report a time-resolved experiment directly pumping discrete
Landau levels in graphene. Energetically degenerate Landau-level transitions from n = −1 to n = 0
and from n = 0 to n = 1 are distinguished by applying circularly polarized THz light. An analysis
based on a microscopic theory shows that the zeroth Landau level is actually depleted by strong
Auger scattering, even though it is optically pumped at the same time. The surprisingly strong
electron–electron interaction responsible for this effect is directly evidenced through a sign reversal
of the pump–probe signal.

Casas, Yue Liu, Valery Kiryukhin, Wojciech H. Zurek, Cristian D. Batista & Sang-Wook Cheong
摘 要 : Lars Onsager and Richard Feynman envisaged that the three-dimensional (3D)
superfluid-to-normal λ transition in 4He occurs through the proliferation of vortices. This process
should hold for every phase transition in the same universality class. The role of topological defects
in symmetry-breaking phase transitions has become a prime topic in cosmology and
high-temperature superconductivity, even though direct imaging of these defects is challenging. Here
we show that the U(1) continuous symmetry that emerges at the ferroelectric critical point of
multiferroic hexagonal manganites leads to a similar proliferation of vortices. Moreover, the disorder
field (vortices) is coupled to an emergent U(1) gauge field, which becomes massive by means of the
Higgs mechanism when vortices condense (span the whole system) on heating above the ferroelectric
transition temperature. Direct imaging of the vortex network in hexagonal manganites offers unique
experimental access to this dual description of the ferroelectric transition, while enabling tests of the
Kibble–Zurek mechanism.

作者:A. Derevianko & M. Pospelov
摘要:The cosmological applications of atomic clocks1, 2, 3 so far have been limited to searches for
the uniform-in-time drift of fundamental constants4. We point out that a transient-in-time change of
fundamental constants can be induced by dark-matter objects that have large spatial extent, such as
stable topological defects5 built from light non-Standard Model fields. Networks of correlated atomic
clocks, some of them already in existence6, such as the Global Positioning System, can be used as a
powerful tool to search for topological defect dark matter, thus providing another important
fundamental physics application for the ever-improving accuracy of atomic clocks. During the
encounter with an extended dark-matter object, as it sweeps through the network, initially
synchronized clocks will become desynchronized. Time discrepancies between spatially separated
clocks are expected to exhibit a distinct signature, encoding the defect’s space structure and its
interaction strength with atoms.

摘要:Quantum entanglement is the central resource behind quantum information science, from
quantum computation and simulation1, 2 to enhanced metrology3 and secure communication1. These
applications require the quantum control of large networks of qubits to realize gains and speed
increases over conventional devices. However, propagating entanglement becomes difficult or
impossible as the system grows in size. Here, we demonstrate the first step in a modular approach4 to
scaling entanglement by using complementary quantum buses on a collection of three atomic ion
qubits stored in two remote ion trap modules. Entanglement within a module is achieved with
deterministic near-field interactions through phonons5, and remote entanglement between modules is
achieved with a probabilistic interaction through photons6. This minimal system allows us to address
generic issues in the synchronization of entanglement with multiple buses. It points the way towards
a modular large-scale quantum information architecture that promises less spectral crowding and thus
potentially less decoherence as the number of qubits increases4. We generate this modular
entanglement faster than the observed remotely entangled qubit-decoherence rate, showing that
entanglement can be scaled simply by adding more modules.

作者:Jolet de Ruiter, Rudy Lagraauw, Dirk van den Ende & Frieder Mugele
摘要:The impingement of drops onto solid surfaces1, 2 plays a crucial role in a variety of processes,
including inkjet printing, fog harvesting, anti-icing, dropwise condensation and spray coating3, 4, 5,
6. Recent efforts in understanding and controlling drop impact behaviour focused on
superhydrophobic surfaces with specific surface structures enabling drop bouncing with reduced
contact time7, 8. Here, we report a different universal bouncing mechanism that occurs on both
wetting and non-wetting flat surfaces for both high and low surface tension liquids. Using high-speed
70
multiple-wavelength interferometry9, we show that this bouncing mechanism is based on the
continuous presence of an air film for moderate drop impact velocities. This submicrometre ‘air
cushion’ slows down the incoming drop and reverses its momentum. Viscous forces in the air film
play a key role in this process: they provide transient stability of the air cushion against squeeze-out,
mediate momentum transfer, and contribute a substantial part of the energy dissipation during
bouncing.

摘要:Depending on the Ginzburg–Landau parameter κ, superconductors can either be fully

magnetic behaviour in the near-Bogomolny critical regime at κ ∼ κc remains lacking. Here we
report that in confined systems the critical regime expands over a finite interval of κ forming a
critical superconducting state. We show that in this state, in a sample with dimensions comparable to
the vortex core size, vortices merge into a multi-quanta droplet, which undergoes Rayleigh
instability5 on increasing κ and decays by emitting single vortices. Superconducting vortices realize
Nielsen–Olesen singular solutions of the Abelian Higgs model, which is pervasive in phenomena
ranging from quantum electrodynamics to cosmology6, 7, 8, 9. Our study of the transient dynamics
of Abrikosov–Nielsen–Olesen vortices in systems with boundaries promises access to non-trivial
effects in quantum field theory by means of bench-top laboratory experiments.

摘要:A three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator (TI) is a quantum state of matter with a gapped
insulating bulk yet a conducting surface hosting topologically protected gapless surface states. One
of the most distinct electronic transport signatures predicted for such topological surface states (TSS)
is a well-defined half-integer quantum Hall effect (QHE) in a magnetic field, where the surface Hall
conductivities become quantized in units of (1/2)e2/h (e being the electron charge, h the Planck
constant) concomitant with vanishing resistance. Here, we observe a well-developed QHE arising
from TSS in an intrinsic TI of BiSbTeSe2. Our samples exhibit surface-dominated conduction even
close to room temperature, whereas the bulk conduction is negligible. At low temperatures and high
magnetic fields perpendicular to the top and bottom surfaces, we observe well-developed integer
quantized Hall plateaux, where the two parallel surfaces each contribute a half-integer e2/h quantized
Hall conductance, accompanied by vanishing longitudinal resistance. When the bottom surface is
gated to match the top surface in carrier density, only odd integer QH plateaux are observed,
representing a half-integer QHE of two degenerate Dirac gases. This system provides an excellent
71
platform to pursue a plethora of exotic physics and novel device applications predicted for TIs,
ranging from magnetic monopoles and Majorana particles to dissipationless electronics and
fault-tolerant quantum computers.

22. 标 题 : Magnetic-free non-reciprocity and isolation based on parametrically modulated
coupled-resonator loops
作者:Nicholas A. Estep, Dimitrios L. Sounas, Jason Soric & Andrea Alù
摘要: Non-reciprocal components, which are essential to many modern communication systems, are
almost exclusively based on magneto-optical materials, severely limiting their applicability. A
practical and inexpensive route to magnetic-free non-reciprocity could revolutionize radio-frequency
and nanophotonic communication networks. Angular-momentum biasing was recently proposed as a
means of realizing isolation for sound waves travelling in a rotating medium1, and envisaged as a
path towards compact, linear integrated non-reciprocal electromagnetic components2, 3. Inspired by
this concept, here we demonstrate a subwavelength, linear radio-frequency non-reciprocal circulator
free from magnetic materials and bias. The scheme is based on the parametric modulation of three
identical, strongly and symmetrically coupled resonators. Their resonant frequencies are modulated
by external signals with the same amplitude and a relative phase difference of 120°, imparting an
effective electronic angular momentum to the system. We observe giant non-reciprocity, with up to
six orders of magnitude difference in transmission for opposite directions. Furthermore, the device
topology is tunable in real time, and can be directly embedded in a conventional integrated circuit.

摘要:Superconductivity involving topological Dirac electrons has recently been proposed as a
platform between concepts in high-energy and condensed-matter physics. It has been predicted that
supersymmetry and Majorana fermions, both of which remain elusive in particle physics, may be
realized through emergent particles in these particular superconducting systems. Using artificially
fabricated topological-insulator–superconductor heterostructures, we present direct spectroscopic
evidence for the existence of Cooper pairing in a weakly interacting half Dirac gas. Our studies
reveal that two dimensional topological superconductivity in a helical Dirac gas is distinctly different
from that in an ordinary two-dimensional superconductor in terms of the spin degrees of freedom of
electrons. We further show that the pairing of Dirac electrons can be suppressed by time-reversal
symmetry-breaking impurities, thereby removing the distinction. Our demonstration and
momentum-space imaging of Cooper pairing in a half-Dirac-gas two-dimensional topological
superconductor serve as a critically important platform for future testing of fundamental physics
predictions such as emergent supersymmetry and topological quantum criticality.

摘要:Solitons are localized wave disturbances that propagate without changing shape, a result of a
nonlinear interaction that compensates for wave packet dispersion. Individual solitons may collide,
but a defining feature is that they pass through one another and emerge from the collision unaltered
in shape, amplitude, or velocity, but with a new trajectory reflecting a discontinuous jump. This
remarkable property is mathematically a consequence of the underlying integrability of the
one-dimensional (1D) equations, such as the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, that describe solitons in
a variety of wave contexts, including matter waves1, 2. Here we explore the nature of soliton
collisions using Bose–Einstein condensates of atoms with attractive interactions confined to a
quasi-1D waveguide. Using real-time imaging, we show that a collision between solitons is a
complex event that differs markedly depending on the relative phase between the solitons. By
controlling the strength of the nonlinearity we shed light on these fundamental features of soliton
collisional dynamics, and explore the implications of collisions in the proximity of the crossover
between one and three dimensions where the loss of integrability may precipitate catastrophic
collapse.

25.标题:Strain-induced partially flat band, helical snake states and interface superconductivity in
topological crystalline insulators
作者:Evelyn Tang & Liang Fu
摘要:Topological crystalline insulators in IV–VI compounds host novel topological surface states
consisting of multi-valley massless Dirac fermions at low energy. Here we show that strain
generically acts as an effective gauge field on these Dirac fermions and creates pseudo-Landau
orbitals without breaking time-reversal symmetry. We predict the realization of this phenomenon in
IV–VI semiconductor heterostructures, due to a naturally occurring misfit dislocation array at the
interface that produces a periodically varying strain field. Remarkably, the zero-energy Landau
orbitals form a flat band in the vicinity of the Dirac point, and coexist with a network of snake states
at higher energy. We propose that the high density of states of this flat band gives rise to interface
superconductivity observed in IV–VI semiconductor multilayers at unusually high temperatures, with
non-Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer behaviour. Our work demonstrates a new route to altering
macroscopic electronic properties to achieve a partially flat band, and provides a starting point for
realizing novel correlated states of matter.
