3D-stacked ICs that employ through-silicon vias (TSVs) to connect multiple dies vertically have gained wide-spread interest in the semiconductor industry. In order to be commercially viable, the assembly yield for 3D-stacked ICs must be as high as possible, requiring TSVs to be reparable. Existing techniques typically assume TSV faults to be uniformly distributed and use neighboring TSVs to repair...
Currently, SOA system has gradually become the major trends in software architecture. However, because of the service characteristics of autonomy and heterogeneity, SOA systems often appear service conflict, which restricts the development of SOA seriously. Firstly, we adopt mathematical methods to give static service conflicts in SOA system a formal description, and divide it into six categories...
A control strategy designed to track desired combustion phasing for a homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine during large load transitions is presented in this work. Three inputs are controlled, namely valve timings, fuel injection amount and fuel injection timing. The valve and fuel injection timings are manipulated to track combustion phasing using a mid-ranging control strategy....
It is inevitable to appear conflicts which are constituted by properties and sequences of events in multi-agent virtual warehouse collaboration system, because of the agents' characteristics of autonomy and heterogeneity. Temporal logic is the key to describe them. ITL includes a total of thirteen kinds of complete disjoint and joint sessions to describe the relationship among time. On this basis,...
This exhaustive research was made on the joint inventory control problem of stochastic demand in virtual logistics. The demand for each warehouse follows Poisson distribution. An optimal joint inventory control model is proposed to minimize the whole inventory control cost comprising ordering cost, storage cost and shortage cost. The (T, S, s) model is constructed by using and adjusting the (T, S)...
Local learning is a special learning framework that considers training samples located in a small region concentric of the query sample. In many applications the concept label of query sample can be evaluated effectively only by similar training samples, such as the famous K-nearest neighbors (KNN) classifier. The metric of locality or similarity is essential in local learning, which is often application...
High-rise tasks in agriculture, forestry and building industry requires robots possessing climbing function. Motivated by these potential applications and inspired by the climbing motion of animals such as inchworms, we have developed a novel biped climbing robot - Climbot. Built with a modular approach, the robot consists of five 1-DoF joint modules connected in series and two special grippers mounted...

This work presents a novel hybrid packaging structure for high-temperature SiC power modules that combines the benefits of both the wirebond structure and the planar structure. With the hybrid structure, the power modules can achieve the same footprint and similar parasitics, but much easier fabrication process and more reliable top-side interconnections, compared with regular planar structures. The...
In order to explore the role of the market confidence and reputation feedback systems in online transactions, a computational experiment model based on the multi-agent is used in this paper. By introducing experience weighted attraction learning algorithm which endows the agent with the bounded rationality, the model can represent the revolution trends in online market and analyze the effect of the...
The objective of this study is to show the applications of the simulation implementation of QNX identified model combining with Matlab/Simulink platform, QNX C/C++ compiler and QNX real-time operating system. The HIT/DLR Hand II dexterous hand QNX real-time simulation model is generated by the Simulink platform and QNX C/C++ compiler link files. Moreover, this model can be implemented in the QNX real-time...
The paper is an attempt to discuss the significance of Data Structures Course and raise the difficult points and relevant issues of the course and introduce group cooperation model in teaching the course with the objective to improve the teaching quality of the course and with the conclusion that group cooperation model can stimulate students' interest in the course and enhance the teaching effects...
An automatic testing system for thermal batteries based on LabVIEW is introduced in this paper. Full automatic testing process is realized and the system has high precision, high speed and good adaptability in different type of thermal-batteries.
Piezoelectric materials are frequently used as transducers. Piezoelectric bending mode elements can be used to harvest vibration energy because they can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. In this article, we present the derivation of the equation for electrical admittance of the symmetrical triple-layer flexural piezoelectric vibrator. The triple-layer piezoelectric vibrator is here...
The purpose of this article is to prove a new fixed point theorem and to establish a simple approximative method of fixed point for nonexpansive mappings in the reflexive Banach space. The new fixed point theorem presented in this article improved and extend the classical results of Goebel-Kirk, Kim-Xu and many others.
The introduction of power forward option transaction in the power market not only provides a richer revenue mix for the participants, but also plays an important role in dispersing and avoiding those uncertainties of the market that they have to face, improving the controllability of transaction and enhancing the stability of the power market operation. In this paper, the strategy using of power forward...
To address the high cost and low efficiency in treatment of refractory organics in landfill leachate, the treatment efficiency of landfill leachate by microwave-enhanced adsorption and Fenton oxidation was studied. Landfill leachate with high concentration COD and ammonia nitrogen (initial COD and ammonia nitrogen concentration were 33384.17mg/L and 3588.16 mg/L.), which were difficult to be biodegraded...
Combining the advantages of active and passive walking robots, we have developed a novel active biped walking robot with only six DoFs. The robot is built with six 1-DoF joint modules and two wheels as the feet. It achieves locomotion in special gaits different from those of traditional biped robots. In this paper, this novel biped robot is introduced, and four walking gaits, namely turning-around...
This paper presents an improved algorithm for sensor monitoring based on the algorithm proposed by Dilman et al. in [3]. By analyzing the probability of the alarm occurrence with the updated information, the proposed algorithm prolongs the interval between two consecutive polling periods when no alarm could occur. This method reduces the amount of monitoring traffic further than the method in [3]...
