With the aim of tackling the contradiction between computation intensive industrial applications and resource-weak Edge Devices (EDs) in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), a novel computation task offloading scheme in SDIN-enabled MEC based IIoT is proposed in this paper. With the aim of reducing the task accomplished latency and energy consumption of EDs, a joint optimization method is proposed for optimizing the local CPU-cycle frequency, offloading decision, and wireless and computation resources allocation jointly. Based on the optimization, the task offloading problem is formulated into a Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) problem which is a large-scale NP-hard problem. In order to solve this problem in an accessible time complexity, a sub-optimal algorithm GPCOA, which is based on hybrid evolutionary computation, is proposed. Outcomes of emulation revel that the proposed method outperforms other baseline methods, and the optimization result shows that the latency-related weight is efficient for reducing the task execution delay and improving the energy efficiency.

Objectives Sleep is fundamental to maintaining homeostatic control and has behavioral and psychological effects on humans. To better understand the function and pathophysiology of sleep, specific gene expressions in reference to sleep deprivation have been studied. In this study, we investigated the gene expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells after sleep deprivation to better understand the functional consequence of sleep. Methods In eight healthy men, 24 h sleep deprivation was induced. Blood was sampled at 14:00, before and after sleep deprivation. mRNA was isolated and analyzed via microarrays. cDNAs before and after sleep deprivation were coupled to Cy3 or Cy5, respectively, and normalized cDNAs were selected with a ratio greater than two as a significant gene. Results are expressed as mean. Results Among 41174 transcripts, 38852 genes were selected as reliable, and only a small minority (< 1%) of the genes were up-or down-regulated. Total six and eleven genes were selected as significant upregulated and downregulated genes, respectively. Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type O was most upregulated (6.9-fold), and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5-like protein showed the most substantial inhibition (0.06-fold). Conclusions This study showed significant associations between sleep deprivation and the immune system. Acute sleep deprivation affects pathways in proinflammatory cytokines as well as metabolic pathways of glutamate and purine, neurotransmitters related to sleep and wake cycle.

To analyze the evolution of water resources in Qiandao Lake Basin under the condition of climate change, a WEP-L distributed hydrological model was established to simulate the water cycle process in the basin during 1960-2020. The Mann-Kendall non-parametric test method and Hurst index method were used to analyze the inter-annual variation and annual distribution characteristics of the total water resources in the basin. The multi-scale temporal and spatial distribution and evolution trend of water resources in Qiandao Lake Basin were evaluated. The results show that: (1) The WEP-L model has good simulation results in the Qiandao Lake basin, and the Nash coefficient rate is above 0.83 in the periodic period and above 0.85 in the verification period. (2) The water yield coefficient of the whole basin ranges from 0.436 to 0.630. The annual average total water resource is 12.25 billion m³, equivalent to 1176.4mm of water depth. The annual distribution process shows a unimodal structure, and the water depth of each sub-basin ranges from 742 mm to 1266 mm, and the spatial distribution is higher in the west and lower in the east. (3) The annual water resources series in the basin showed an insignificant upward trend, and the Hurst index was 0.86, indicating a continuous upward trend. From the perspective of monthly water resources, January and February increased significantly, the other months were not significant changes.

Beside that the fish species and their sub-populations are highly important as a keystone species in the coastal and marine ecosystem, there are very few studies on their presence, distribution and temporal variations within and around the lagoon ecosystems in Albania. This paper provides an updated review on the life cycle, fishery, exploitation state and management of the main species that are subject of commercial fishing in the Karavasta lagoon, southeastern Adriatic coast of Albania. Due to the fact that lagoons represent a continuum between continental and marine aquatic ecosystems they play a crucial role in species life cycles. Further on in the circumstances of rapid utilizations and environmental changes, anomalies in salinity and temperatures, accelerated anthropogenic influences their rate of vulnerability is highly increased. Following the requirements of the Water Framework Directive, transitional water, coastal lagoons and estuaries there is a need for urgent monitoring and management approaches. The commercial species include: European eel (Anguilla anguilla), species of Family Mugilidae (Mugil cephalus, Liza ramada, Liza salienes and Chelon labrosus), Seabream (Sparus aurata), Seabass (Dincentrarchus labrax), etc. Fish productivity is oscillating from maximum value of 61.95 kg/ha is recorded in period of 1975-80 and lower value of 31 kg/ha in year 2020. Our study highlights importance of fish and fishery long-term monitoring, and contributes to understand the driving factors in productivity, migration patterns and species ecology in the vital coastal ecosystems.

The rotating bending fatigue tests were performed using the specimens taken from Cr-Mo-V steel, widely sued in thermal power plant turbines, at various temperatures such as room temperature, 300 .deg. C, 425 .deg. C and 550 .deg. C. The characteristics of fatigue crack propagation were examined and analyzed by using fracture mechanics parameter. The plastic replica method was also applied in order to measure the crack length on the basis of serial observation of fatigue crack propagation behavior on the defected specimen surface. The fatigue crack propagation behavior of Cr-Mo-V steel was investigated within the frame work of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics. The propagation law of fatigue crack is obtained uniquely by using the term .sigma. $^{n}$ sub a/where .sigma. $_{a}$ is the service stress, a is the crack length and n is a constant. The values of constant n are nearly equal to 2.48, 2.60 and 8.61 at room temperature, 300 .deg. C and 425 .deg. C.

Modern society is making numerous efforts to reduce reliance on carbon-based energy systems. A notable solution in this transition is the adoption of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) as potent energy sources, owing to their high energy and power densities. Driven by growing environmental challenges, the application scope of LIBs has expanded from their initial prevalence in portable electronic devices to include electric vehicles (EVs) and energy storage systems (ESSs). Accordingly, LIBs must exhibit long-lasting cyclability and high energy storage capacities to facilitate prolonged device usage, thereby offering a potential alternative to conventional sources like fossil fuels. Enhancing the durability of LIBs hinges on a comprehensive understanding of the reasons behind their performance decline. Therefore, comprehending the degradation mechanism, which includes detrimental chemical and mechanical phenomena in the components of LIBs, is an essential step in resolving cycle life issues. The LIB systems presently being commercialized and developed predominantly employ graphite anode and layered oxide cathode materials. A significant portion of the degradation process in LIB systems takes place during the electrochemical reactions involving these electrodes. In this review, we explore and organize the aging mechanisms of LIBs, especially those with graphite anodes and layered oxide cathodes.

In this study, the carburizing heat treatment process used in aircraft gear manufacturing was compared with the general carburizing heat treatment process using AISI 9310 steel. The process of carburizing followed by slow cooling, and then quenching after austenitizing(Process A) showed less compressive residual stress and less retained austenite in the surface layer compared to the process of quenching directly after carburizing(Process B). In prpcess B, there was a large amount of retained austenite when quenched immediately after carburization, and when treated with subzero, martensite rapidly increased and the compressive residual stress increased significantly, but at the same time, there is a risk of cracking due to severe expansion in volume. Therefore, in the case of aviation parts, it is believed that a step-by-step heat treatment cycle was adopted to ensure stability against heat treatment cracks. As a result of the final tempering after sub-zero treatment, the A process specimen showed a deeper effective case depth and HV700 depth and a higher hardness value above HV700 than the B process specimen.

새로운 개념과 알고리즘으로 완성된 지표 변수 데이터베이스인 Ecoclimap-1이 전 지구 영역에 대해 1km의 해상도로 제공 된 바 있다. 이것은 기상과 기후의 모델에서 토양과 식물과 대기 사이의 이동을 정량적으로 표현하기 위해 고안 되었으며, Ecoclimap-1 데이터베이스를 구성하는 지표변수 자료들은 토지피복지도와 기후지도를 중첩하여 얻어진 생태기후 지도를 기본 주제도로 사용하여 각 클래스에 대한 값(per-class)로 제공된다. 생태기후지도의 제작은 일반적으로 사용하는 토지피복분류가 나타내지 못하는 동질 피복 내 생장 주기의 변동성을 고려하기 위한 것이다. 그러나 이렇게 중첩하여 얻은 주제를 사용하더라도 역시 같은 class내부의 식생 생장 주기의 변동성은 여전히 높게 나타나는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 새로운 방법으로, SPOT/VEGETATION S10 NDVI 자료를 이용하여 토지피복지도와 기후지도의 단순 중첩이 아닌 동일 토지피복 클래스 내의 sub-clustering을 통하여 보다 동질의 하위 집단으로 분류한다. 본 연구는 Ecoclimap-2 project의 전 지구 데이터 베이스 구축의 일환으로 동북 아시아 지역의 생태기후지도 제작을 수행하였다. 사용된 토지피복지도는 University of Maryland Global Land Cover Database를 사용하였고 기후지도는 각 토지피복 클래스의 sub-clustering시 초기 군집의 수를 결정하기 위한 보조 자료로 사용하였다. 1999년부터 2004년 총 6년 동안의 NDVI 10-day 자료를 이용하였고 한 UMD토지피복 class내에 존재하는 모든 화소의 시 공간 긴밀도를 분석하여 비슷한 NDVI 정보를 가지는 화소들을 통합하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 동북아시아를 총 29개의 ecosystem으로 정의 하였다. 이러한 ecosystem map은 앞으로의 기후 모델 연구에 있어 중요한 기본 주제도로 유용할 것으로 보이며 또한 생태계모델, 기상모델의 중요한 input 자료로서 쓰여 질 것으로 사료 된다.
