  • Guanosine fermentation process can be well predicted and analyzed by the proposed state equations describing the dynamic change of a bioreactor. Pyruvate and alanine were found to be characteristically accumulated along with the decline of the guanosine formation rate during the mid-late phase of the process. The enzymological study of the main pathways in glucose catabolism and the quantitative stoichiometric calculation of metabolic flux distribution revealed that it was entirely attributed to the shift of metabolic flux from hexose monophosphate (HMP) pathway to glycolysis pathway. The process optimization by focusing on the restore of the shift of metabolic flux was conducted and the overcoming the decrease of oxygen uptake rate (OUR) was taken as the relevant factor of the trans-scale operation. As a result, the production of guanosinewas increased from 17 g/L to over 34 g/I.

  • We report on a systematic analysis of the spin and superorbital modulations of the high-mass X-ray binary 4U 0114+650, which consists of the slowest spinning neutron star known. Utilizing dynamic power spectra, we found that the spin period varied dramatically during the RXTE ASM and Swift BAT observations. This variation consists of a long-term spin-up trend, and two ~1,000 day and one ~600 day random walk epochs previously, MJD 51,000, ~MJD 51,400-52,000, and ~MJD 55,100-56,100. We further found that the events appear together with depressions of superorbital modulation amplitude. This provides evidence of the existence of an accretion disk, although the physical mechanism of superorbital modulation remains unclear. Furthermore, the decrease of the superorbital modulation amplitude may be associated with the decrease of mass accretion rate from the disk, and may distribute the accretion torque of the neutron star randomly in time.

  • In recent years, high-speed recording CD-R has already become the mainstream of CD-R market. Therefore, to promote the efficiency of recording CD-R is of significant importance. This study uses Taguchi's parameter design to improve the yield rate for the process of CD-R substrate. We have found 13 three-level controllable factors from the fishbone diagram, repeated 10 times the experiment with the L27(313) orthogonal array, and measured seven quality characteristics. We employ four general methods to find the optimal parameter conditions individually. Then, we perform the confirmation experiment and compare the results. Finally, we obtain the optimal parameter conditions. According to the analysis of benefits, the optimal parameter conditions can reduce the quality loss of CD-R substrate to about 21%. In the future, the results can be extended to other research of DVD-R substrate.

  • The purpose of business strategy is to achieve competitive advantages which includes higher efficiency, better quality, more innovation and faster customer response. In other words, The business strategy is to build unique capability of lower cost and/or differentiation. In production aspect, unique capability means better production power with better performance at 3M(Man, Machine, Material) of input and PQCDSM (Product, Quality, Cost, Delivery, Safety, Moral) from output. The Total Productive management (TPM), a series of improvement activities focused on reduction of equipment loss, is a tool to establish business competitive advantages. In this paper, several domestic companies who won the Japan TPM Award have been studied. It is found that there is a strong cause-effect relationship between TPM and competitive advantages because. 1. TPM can change employees mindset effectively. 2. TPM can upgrade employees capabilities. 3. TPM can lead to excellent productivity.

  • To determine the infectivlty and maturity of nletacercanae of Parqgonimur westermani after keeping at low temperature for a long period, 45 mice and 45 rats were each infected with 20 metacercariae which were kept at $4^{\circ}C$ for 8 to 234 days. The worm recovery in mice increased with age of worm and reached a peak of 32% at 41-50 days and then decreased with age. The rate In rats first decreased to a lowest point of 6% at 71-100 days and then Increased with age. In 42 infected mice and 41 infected rats, 187 immature worms (183 tiny and 4 Juvenile ones) and 190 worms (164 tiny, 19 Juvenile and 7 mature ones) were recovered respectively. Two wormcysts with eggs only and 8 empty wormcysts were also found In the rats. In addition, the frozen metacercanae can still develop to mature worms in SD rats.

  • To improve the accuracy and enhance the applicability of existing models, this paper proposes a generalized Markov chain model for IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) under the widely adopted assumption of ideal transmission channel. The IEEE 802.11 DCF is modeled by a two dimensional Markov chain, which takes into account unsaturated traffic, backoff freezing, retry limits, the difference between maximum retransmission count and maximum backoff exponent, and limited buffer size based on the M/G/1/K queuing model. We show that existing models can be treated as special cases of the proposed generalized model. Furthermore, simulation results validate the accuracy of the proposed model.

  • A novel and universal method of video image text detection is proposed. A coarse-to-fine text detection method is implemented. Firstly, the spectral clustering (SC) method is adopted to coarsely detect text regions based on the stationary wavelet transform (SWT). In order to make full use of the information, multi-parameters kernel function which combining the features similarity information and spatial adjacency information is employed in the SC method. Secondly, 28 dimension classifying features are proposed and support vector machine (SVM) is implemented to classify text regions with non-text regions. Experimental results on video images show the encouraging performance of the proposed algorithm and classifying features.

  • Through quantitative video analysis of four algebra classes and statistical analysis of various types of teacher evaluation behavior in the classroom teaching, we get: (1) Teacher evaluation behavior in classroom is close to take 1/5 of the total time of the classroom teaching, and it appears most frequently in class exercises and take the longest time; (2) There are many forms of teacher evaluation behavior in classroom, and most of the behaviors are positive assessment; (3) Recognition evaluation is relatively conservative in a single form without losing fairness; (4) Classroom assessments of teachers' behaviors are primarily concerned about students' knowledge and skills mastery, and it is less involved in student feelings, attitudes and behaviors; (5) The correct teacher evaluation behavior in classroom will inspire students to create internal motivations; and (6) The correct teacher evaluation behavior in classroom can stimulate the potential of students.

  • We propose and test several computational methods to automatically determine possible saliency cut-off points in Sketch Engine (Kilgarriff and Tugwell, 2001). Sketch Engine currently displays collocations in descending importance, as well as according to grammatical relations. However, Sketch Engine does not provide suggestions for a cut-off point such that any items above this cut-off point may be considered significantly salient. This proposal suggests improvement to the present Sketch Engine interface by calculating three different cut-off point methods, so that the presentation of results can be made more meaningful to users. In addition, our findings also contribute to linguistic analyses based on empirical data.
