基于RTP协议H．264视频流传输QoS保证的研究

提出一个Linux环境下基于RTP/RTCP的H.264视频流传输的方案,在Linux中调用V4L(VideofourLinux)的API函数采集视频流,经X264压缩,RTP/RTCP协议打包进行传输。并通过RTCP的RR(接收方报告)包反馈信息和吞吐量公式来计算近似带宽,以起始帧量化参数start-qp为视频编码的调节参数,由近似带宽来控制视频编码的参数调整,达到控制输出码率的目的,实现对视频传输的QoS(QualityofService)保证。     

金属膜陶瓷膜净水技术试验研究

试验研究了金属膜陶瓷膜净水的主要影响因素及变化规律,提出了用金属膜陶瓷膜净水工艺替代传统的加药混凝、沉淀过滤净水工艺的水处理系统。重点研究了不同种类金属膜对浊度物质的去除、膜压差及膜渗透通量随时间的变化规律;陶瓷微滤膜渗透通量、出水浊度随时间的变化规律及在不同膜压差、不同进口流量的情况下膜渗透通量随时间的变化规律。试验表明了金属膜陶瓷膜具有良好的过滤性能。     

三坐标雷达目标真实高度估计算法研究

在目标跟踪领域,通过三坐标雷达的测量值(斜距、仰角及方位角)来估算目标的真实高度一直是个难点。目前主要有两类处理方法:坐标转换法和等效地球半径法。前者把与雷达天线相关的三坐标测量值转换到大地坐标系统来计算目标高度;后者充分考虑地球曲率以及大气折射的特性,通过增加地球半径来估算目标的高度。最后对上述的两类方法进行总结、比较与分析。     

一种基于SOAP安全的网络中心发布/订阅机制

针对网络中心发布/订阅系统异步、松散耦合和多对多通信等特点,采用了SOAP消息传递机制对信息进行了封装,从而屏蔽了信息的异构性。考虑到信息传输的可靠性,采用XML-Encryption机制构造SOAP消息,为消息交换和数据传输提供一种安全的保证。实际应用表明该系统在网络中心战中有较好的应用前景。     

聚硅氧烷先驱体转化制备2D Cf/Si-O-C材料

以二维碳纤维布和廉价的聚硅氧烷为原料,采用先驱体转化工艺制备2D Cf/Si-O-C材料,对其力学性能进行了考察,并与以聚碳硅烷为先驱体制备的2D Cf/SiC材料在价格和性能方面进行了对比。实验表明,2D Cf/Si-O-C材料力学性能较2D Cf/SiC材料有所下降,但成本大大降低。2D Cf/Si-O-C材料弯曲强度达到157.9 MPa,断裂韧性达到8.4MPa.m1/2,剪切强度达到23.4MPa,并且在1400℃下能较好保持材料的力学性能。     

Emergency transshipment in decentralized dealer networks: When to send and accept transshipment requests

While there has been significant previous literature on inventory transshipment, most research has focused on the dealers' demand filling decision (when to fill transshipment requests from other dealers), ignoring the requesting decision (when to send transshipment requests to other dealers). In this paper we develop optimal inventory transshipment policies that incorporate both types of decisions. We consider a decentralized system in which the dealers are independent of the manufacturer and of each other. We first study a network consisting of a very large number of dealers. We prove that the optimal inventory and transshipment decisions for an individual dealer are controlled by threshold rationing and requesting levels. Then, in order to study the impact of transshipment among independent dealers in a smaller dealer network, we consider a decentralized two‐dealer network and use a game theoretic approach to characterize the equilibrium inventory strategies of the individual dealers. An extensive numerical study highlights the impact of the requesting decision on the dealers' equilibrium behavior in a decentralized setting. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Property distribution and configurations of sovereign states: A rational economic model

A nation's wealth is both an object of conquest to covetous aggressors and a resource to its owners for self defense. To maintain autonomy every country must mount a defense which either makes its capture (1) more expensive than any aggressor can afford, or (2) more expensive than it is worth to aggressors. Whether this condition can be satisfied for all countries simultaneously depends as shown in this paper on relative efficacy of military offense versus defense, the aggregate of wealth among nations and its distribution, and the benefits a conqueror may obtain from conquest, including the duration of these benefits. The paper shows how these factors fit together to determine the sustainability and stability of the international distribution of property as embodied in the configuration of sovereign states.     

ACQUIRING FOREIGN NUCLEAR ASSISTANCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has laid out an ambitious plan to become the first Arab country to possess a civilian nuclear energy program. Central to that effort has been the Emirati government's ability to obtain foreign nuclear assistance. This article traces the UAE's strategies for overcoming the obstacles that stood in the way of nuclear suppliers providing assistance. It examines the approach taken by the UAE to assuage the safety and security concerns of nuclear suppliers, how the UAE leveraged its alliances with France and the United States to obtain their cooperation, and its strategies for engaging domestic interest groups in supplier states. The generalizable elements of the UAE's strategies are discussed and used to provide insight into the prospects for other Middle Eastern states' bids to obtain similar assistance. The article concludes with a discussion of the potentially transformative aspects of the strategies employed by the UAE in shaping other countries' pursuit of nuclear energy in the region.     

TURKEY'S NUCLEAR COMEBACK

As worries have grown about global warming and the sustainability and price of fossil fuels, the demand for nuclear energy has increased, and nuclear power is increasingly viewed as a reliable and clean resource. However, the so-called nuclear renaissance coincides with an international security environment in which the norms of nuclear nonproliferation seem to be eroding. Turkey, a non-nuclear weapon state, plans to generate nuclear power to meet future energy demands, but it is aware of and concerned with regional proliferation trends. Questions have also been raised regarding Ankara's rationale for using nuclear energy, as well as its potential motivations and capabilities regarding future proliferation. This article will provide an overview of Turkey's nuclear energy history and plans, as well as the proliferation-related questions that could arise; it will also look at the domestic debate on nuclear energy and Turkey's status as a non-nuclear weapon state.     

The Importance of Safeguards Culture

International safeguards is the system of measures put in place by the International Atomic Energy Agency and states to ensure nuclear programs remain dedicated to peaceful purposes. This international safeguards system consists of agreements, inspections, and evaluations that have never considered the safeguards culture of a state or facility. Neither a common definition nor an understanding of safeguards culture is internationally recognized. This article provides an analysis of the concept of safeguards culture and gauges its value to the international safeguards community. The authors explore distinctions among safeguards culture, safeguards compliance, and safeguards performance, and suggest possible indicators of safeguards culture and methods to promote a strong, positive safeguards culture.
