Trustworthy service discovery based on a modified ant colony algorithm by Guo-jun SHENG, Tao WEN, Quan GUO, Xiao-ying SONG

“…Aiming at the problem of service discovery in unstructured P2P network,a trustworthy service discovery me-thod based on a modified ant colony algorithm was prop sed.Some novel policies were introduced to control the beha-vior of the ant colony,such as the dynamic ant colony policy,the sub-ant policy,the reputation evaluation policy to ser-vice peers,and the punishment policy to malicious peers.Service peers with high reputation could change their neighbors and make self-organization under the recommendation of ants.These policies and methods provide new ideas for the ap-plication researches of ant colony algorithms in the field of distributed service discovery.The results of experiments show that the proposed algorithm can guarantee higher trust service precision and better integrated service discovery performance in complex network environments,and some useful conclusions were obtained through the alysis and ex-planation of the experimental data,laying a solid foundation for further researches.…”

Dynamic Behavior of Clay-Aggregate Mixtures by Kang Fei, Jinxin Xu

“…To improve the understanding of the effects of coarse particles on the dynamic behavior of clay-aggregate mixtures, series of stress controlled cyclic triaxial tests were performed on clay specimens with various glass bead contents. The results show that the initial shear modulus of clay-aggregate mixtures increased with the increase of the coarse aggregate content and the confining stress. …”

Reflection of two-dimensional surface polaritons by metallic nano-plates on atomically thin crystals by Lee Seojoo, Kang Ji-Hun

“…Control of 2DSPs is possible by using their interaction with a boundary between two media, similar to how light behaves in three-dimensional (3D) space. The understanding of the interaction in the 2D case is still in its early stages, unlike the 3D case, as in-depth investigations are only available in a few cases including the interaction of 2DSPs with structured 2D crystals. …”

Phosphate-sensing mechanisms and functions of phosphate as a first messenger by Yuichi Takashi

“…Therefore, our research group proposes that FGFR1 works as a phosphate-sensing receptor at least in the regulation of FGF23 production and blood phosphate level, and phosphate behaves as a first messenger. Phosphate is involved in various effects, such as stimulation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) synthesis, vascular calcification, and renal dysfunction. …”
