Proxy caching algorithm based on segment popularity for mobile streaming media by YANG Ge1, LIAO Jian-xin1, ZHU Xiao-min1, YANG Bo1, HUANG Hai1

“…A novel dynamic scheduling algorithm P2CAS2M2（proxy caching algorithm based on segment popularity for mobile streaming media）based on segment popularity for mobile streaming media was proposed.Proxy caching admis-sion and replacement algorithm based on the object segment popularity for mobile streaming media was implemented.The principle was obeyed that the data cached for each mobile streaming media object were in proportion to their popu-larity at the proxy server.The cache window size was updated periodically according to the average access time of the clients.Simulation results show that this algorithm is more adaptive than A2LS（adaptive and lazy segmentation algorithm） for the variety of the proxy server cache.It can gain more average number of cached mobile streaming media objects and less delayed requested ratio while byte-hit ratio of P2CAS2M2 is close to or exceeds A2LS under the circumstance of the same proxy cache space.…”

Analysis of the Influence of the Parameters of the Pendulum Mechanism of the Swashplate Engine on the Dynamic Performance by Deng Tao, Zheng Yuwei, Zhang Yuxiao, Liu Ping

“…Combined with the mathematical model, the influence of the change of the number of cylinders of the pendulum mechanism on the output speed and the displacement of the center of mass of the swashplate are studied using the control variable method, and the Admas simulation analysis is carried out. The results show that when the number of cylinders is selected as the independent variable, the inclination angle of the swashplate decreases gradually from 29.93° to 14.26°, and the average deviation of speed is the smallest when the number of cylinders is 7, which is 0.005 4 r/min; the average displacement of the swashplate centroid on <italic>x</italic>-axis and <italic>y</italic>-axis is also the smallest, which are -0.005 9 mm and -0.016 7 mm respectively; the average displacement on the <italic>z</italic>-axis is 0.038 8 mm, which is not the minimum value, but the offset amplitude is smaller. …”
