空间查询语言中拓扑关系的定义

拓扑关系是一种重要的空间关系,被广泛应用于空间查询和空间分析中。因此定义一个完备、互斥且可以嵌入到空间查询语言中的命名拓扑关系集合有着非常重要的意义。当前,对拓扑关系集合的定义还不能描述那些由点、线或面等不同维几何对象构成的复杂空间对象之间的拓扑关系。针对目前拓扑关系研究的不足,引入了混合几何对象的概念,基于OpenGISSQL规范(OpenGISSimpleFeaturesSpecificationforSQL),定义了一个拓扑关系集合:{disjoint,touches,within,crosses,overlaps,contains,equal}。它扩充了OpenGISSQL规范中拓扑关系的定义和范畴,具有完备性和互斥性,为空间查询语言中的拓扑关系的定义提供了一个统一的框架。

基于网关的LVC互操作研究

仿真体系结构解决了各自领域内仿真资源的互操作问题,而体系结构间的互操作是解决多种仿真资源互操作的有效方法.由于通信协议、中间件和对象模型的不同,体系结构间不能直接进行信息交互.对象模型间的相同点是异构仿真系统间互操作的基础.建立异构系统对象模型与通用数据交换模型的映射关系,通过模型转换实现各异构系统间的数据交互,最后通过"点对点"和通用网关间的时延比较,总结了通用网关的性能特点.

基于候选轨迹统计模型的红外弱小点目标检测(英文)

建立候选目标轨迹集合,以候选目标轨迹集合为样本空间,利用沿候选轨迹的能量积分构造此空间上的概率分布,从而建立候选轨迹的概率统计模型.以此模型为基础,设计了一种弱小点目标检测方法.通过蒙特卡罗实验方法调节模型参数,使得算法的检测性能达到所提出的指标.该算法规避了以往算法中需要获得解析形式的候选轨迹密度函数的限制,因此能检测出沿任意方向作直线运动的点目标.最后,针对给定的弱小点目标观测图像序列,利用所提出的算法进行检测,仿真结果证明此算法是有效的.     

空中目标敌我识别空域关联函数算法

空中目标敌我识别需要根据多信源、多因子综合判断目标属性.空域关联函数的计算是其中的一个关键问题,其实质是用数学方法判断平面内给定的一个点是否位于给定的单连通区域内部.解决此问题常用的方法有几何法、网格法和射线法等.针对此问题,基于复变函数理论,提出了环路积分算法,并推导出了针对任意多边形的环路积分算法的计算公式.     

地籍数据库点线拓扑一致性并行检查方法

针对拓扑检查算法复杂、计算量大,串行计算已远不能满足海量地籍数据高效拓扑检查需求的问题,在分析了点线拓扑关系的并行特点基础上,将界址点的数据划分方法与界址线的QR空间索引方法相结合,实现了界址点与界址线的并行拓扑计算。用某地区实际的界址点集与界址线集对点线拓扑并行检查进行实验。测试结果表明:并行检查算法的并行效率随着进程数的增加而有所衰减,但稳定在30%以上,加速比达到5以上,且相比于Arc GIS效率提升了30倍以上。并行检查方法以工具的方式集成应用于高性能地理计算平台中,应用效果良好。     

面向任务的战术行动自主协同关系模型

在信息化战争的大背景下,战术行动中团队协同作战一直是研究的重点问题,而如何建立自主协同关系是团队协同研究的一个难点问题。在分析已有团队协同理论和框架的基础上,提出一种面向任务的战术行动自主协同关系模型建立方法。该模型首先根据当前战场态势和上级任务发布自主协同任务集合,各作战单元根据战场态势和自主决策自愿参与自主协同任务,其次利用作战单元与自主协同任务间的相互关系实现对关键角色的判断。如果关键协同成员参与自主协同任务则自主协同关系建立成功,反之,建立失败。     

基于MDA的MARTE模型形式化转换

非形式化/半形式化模型到形式化模型之间的转换是当前软件工程领域的研究热点。根据异构模型转换,提出了基于MDA的MARTE模型到Object-Z规约之间的转换方法。针对Object-Z在实时领域表达能力不足的问题,首先扩展Object-Z元模型;然后在MDA的元元模型体系下,定义了MARTE元模型和扩展的Object-Z元模型之间的转换规则。MARTE模型可以重用这些转换规则以实现到Object-Z形式化描述之间的转换,进而可以对模型进行形式化验证;最后通过一个实例使用该方法完成模型转换,具体说明了转换规则的应用。

Helping hands: civil–military cooperation and Italy's military operation abroad

In the Post-Bipolar Era the growing complexity of the military operations requires a new approach for the resolution of international crises. Since the end of the Cold War, peace support operations (PSO) have become the mainstay and principal occupation of most Western armies. At the same time, Italy has been one of the most important actors in such an area. The article focuses on the cooperation between military and civil components (a process called CIMIC) as a key variable in the Italian PSOs. We will analyse in detail the main lessons learned from past military interventions as well as the general context in which new tendencies are taking place. The maintaining of a minimum security frame becomes essential to fulfil activities ‘collateral’ to the mission: reconstructing services and infrastructure, food distribution, water and medication, law and order, de-mining, training of local forces, and supporting local institutions. These are the main tasks to obtain thrust and support from the population.     

Terrorism,insurgency, kidnapping,and security in Africa's energy sector

Energy continues to serve as the bedrock of modern economies and the main driver of modern society. For Africa, the production and supply of energy resources such as crude oil, natural gas, uranium, coal, biomass, biofuels and other renewables are an important source of employment, rents, taxes, royalties and profits. This sector brings in several tens of billions of dollars of revenue annually. The production and delivery of such resources, however, depend on critical infrastructures such as pipelines, refineries, processing plants, terminals, rigs, electrical energy pylons, substations, pump stations, vessels, and tankers. These infrastructures have been attacked by terrorists, insurgents, vandals and saboteurs, all of whom see them as targets against which to register their grievances and extract concessions from the state. This paper is a chronological account of some of the documented incidents of terrorism, insurgency, kidnapping, destruction, sabotage, and human casualties suffered in the oil and gas sectors in Africa between 1999 and 2012. It is based on data extracted from the databases of the RAND Database of World Terrorism Incidents and the University of Maryland's Global Terrorism Database (GTD).     

Tacit support for terrorism: The rapprochement between the USSR and Palestinian guerrilla organizations following the 1967 war

This article demonstrates the inconsistent and wavering Soviet attitude towards national liberation movements in general and the Palestinian organizations in particular. Until the late 1960s, the Soviets viewed these organizations with suspicion, hesitating to engage in political dialogue with them. However, in the 1970s, political and military events in the region, as well as modifications in the Kremlin's Cold War strategies, led to a general shift towards the Middle East in Soviet foreign policy. Soviet leaders showed increased willingness to provide certain Palestinian organizations with arms with which to conduct terrorist activities against Israeli, pro-Israeli, Jewish and Western targets. The article explores the complex relations between Palestinian organizations and the USSR in the field of international terror. The study also exposes and analyzes the nature and content of Soviet–Palestinian arms dialogues and transactions. It provides clear evidence that Soviet policymakers and other luminaries were fully informed of, and sometimes directly involved in, these transactions and dialogues at the highest levels.     

A1 Qaeda and the radical Islamic challenge to western strategy

The September 11 global crisis prompted by the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon raises major questions concerning the nature and trajectory of terrorism in the post-Cold War global order. Hitherto, terrorism has been largely debated by analysts at the level of nation states. Terrorist and insurgent movements have also been largely anchored in nationalist and ethnic power bases even when they have sought to mobilise a transnational ideological appeal on religious or class grounds. There have been a few exceptions to this pattern such as the alliance between the German Baader-Meinhof group and the Japanese Red Army Faction, but even such international alliances as this did not, until at least the 1980s, presage anything like a global terrorist network necessitating a global strategic response. This study examines terrorism and global strategic responses.     

Helping hands: external support for the KNU insurgency in Burma

This article analyses to what extent the Burmese KNU insurgency made use of external support from states, refugees, and diasporas. Based on extensive fieldwork it is concluded that support from neighbouring states and refugees has for years kept the Karen rebellion alive. Western countries perceived forms of resistance to the illegitimate Burmese regime as just and have therefore played a crucial role in the continuation of conflict in Karen State. It is important that policymakers and donors as well as executing organizations continue to reflect critically on the way they exercise their work.

Cyber sheiks and grassroots jihadis: the war in Syria and the devolution of the Bosnian Salafi communities

ABSTRACT

What was the scope of the Bosnian jihadi participation in the war in Syria? Did the Bosnian volunteers tend to join one particular faction? Why did the Bosnian youngsters decide to join the holy war in the Levant? Was this an organized and hierarchical process or was this a grassroots movement? Last, were all the Salafis in Bosnia supportive of this dynamic or did this process cause internal frictions? These are some of the questions that this research will try to answer.
