Lost through non-translation: bringing Clausewitz's writings on ‘new wars’ back in

While Carl von Clausewitz has generally been respected as one of the most profound philosophers of war, his expertise has been regarded as somewhat limited if not even irrelevant to the so-called ‘new wars’ of the post-Cold War world. Many scholars in international relations have claimed that ‘new wars’ are essentially ‘post-Clausewitzian’ and ‘post-trinitarian’ in nature, meaning that they are no longer fathomable through a Clausewitzian framework. However Clausewitz's earlier writings were nearly exclusively dedicated to guerrilla warfare, or what he called ‘small wars’. These writings have been largely overlooked by many analysts of contemporary conflicts. By drawing on his rare and untranslated writings, the article uncovers a critical part of Clausewitz's expertise in asymmetric warfare and shows that, far from being irrelevant in an age where interstate warfare is increasingly being replaced by conflicts between states and semi-/non-state actors, Clausewitz's philosophical writings actually shed new light into the particular interactive dynamics generated during wars waged under conditions of asymmetry.     

FlatLFS:一种面向海量小文件处理优化的轻量级文件系统

海量小文件的高效存储和访问是当前分布式文件系统面临的主要挑战之一。以GFS和HDFS为代表的分布式文件系统大多面向海量大文件的高效存储和访问设计,缺乏小文件处理的针对性优化,导致访问海量小文件时效率低下。针对分布式文件系统中海量小文件访问时的数据服务器优化问题,提出了一种采用扁平式数据存储方法的轻量级文件系统FlatLFS,取代传统文件系统对上层分布式文件系统提供数据存储和访问支持,提高了数据服务器处理小数据块时的I/O性能,从而提升了整个分布式文件系统的性能。实验表明,当数据块大小设定为1M时,FlatLFS的随机读性能分别比ext3、ext4、reiserfs高135%、112%和122%。

大规模 MIMO系统中用户分层变长时隙分配

大规模MIMO系统时分双工模式中分配的物理时隙长度是固定的,不能根据不同时长的信道相干时间灵活地调整长度,二者长度的不匹配导致部分时频资源的浪费,因此,系统的总体容量不能达到最优。针对此问题提出一种用户分层变长时隙分配方法,即根据不同终端的移动性对终端进行分层,并为不同层中的移动终端灵活地分配不同时长的物理时隙,使物理时隙长度与移动终端所对应信道的相干时长相匹配,从而减少时频资源的浪费,提高资源利用率。同时,避免了低速移动终端过频繁的信道估计,降低了信道训练序列开销,使系统的总体数据容量得到很大的提升。实验仿真结果验证了所提方法的有效性。     

“It would be impossible to estimate the value of these works...” Mass Production at Springfield Armory during the American Civil War

The U.S. Armory in Springfield, Massachusetts, rarely appears in Civil War histories except perhaps as an unexplained statistical wonder. By late 1863, the Armory was the largest single supplier of rifles to Union forces. Springfield Armory workers out-produced over thirty American contractors, making more Army rifles at less cost while providing contractors with gauges, inspectors, and models, even though there were significant wartime private-sector mechanical innovations. This article identifies and explains the factors in the Armory’s success, provides context on contemporary American arms production and rifle models, and argues that the Armory’s methods and performance were among the first if not the first example of mass production in American small arms manufacture. The relative brevity of the Civil War episode, and the fact that it was not repeated in any comparable way at the Armory until World War II, has obscured its significance in American manufacturing history.
