An experimental study of an optical burst switching network based on wavelength-selective optical switches

In this article we report the system structure and test results of an experimental optical burst switching network with three edge router's and one core node. Wavelength-selective switches developed for this system and their characteristics are depicted. The implementation and performance of our new scheme for the just-in-time protocol are described. We also report experimental results of FTP and VOD services on this system. Some parameters, including traffic rate, average burst data length, and assembly time, are studied.     

On effective offloading services for resource-constrained mobile devices running heavier mobile internet applications

Rapid advances in wireless mobile network technologies and mobile handsets (MHs) facilitate ubiquitous infrastructure that can support a range of mobile services and applications in addition to conventional mobile Internet access. One recent trend is to effectively run desktop PC-oriented heavier applications on MHs. However, due to their miniature, portable size, MHs are resource-constrained and therefore, running these applications directly on an MH is not satisfactory given a user's expectations. To cope with this problem, this article proposes a novel offloading service that can seamlessly offload some of the tasks of a mobile application from an MH to nearby, resource-rich PCs (called surrogates). The system architecture and key components of the proposed offloading service are presented, prototyped, and evaluated. The results of experiments and simulations have demonstrated the effectiveness and efficiency of this offloading service for mobile applications.     

Mathematical modelling of the oxidation of nickel titanium alloys

A one-dimensional bulk reaction model for the oxidation of nickeltitanium is formulated, with preferential oxidation of titaniumbeing included. The modelling is directed at the better understandingof the dominant mechanisms involved in the oxidation processand their significance for the biocompatibility of the alloy.Two different regimes for the relative diffusivities of oxygenand the metals are investigated. By assuming fast bulk reactions,different asymptotic structures emerge in different parameterregimes and the resulting models take the form of moving boundaryproblems. Different profiles of nickel concentration are obtained:in particular a nickel-rich layer (observed in practice) ispresent below the oxide/metal interface for the case when oxygenand the metals diffuse at comparable rates.     

Crystallographic report: catena‐Aqua(2,2′‐bipyrimidine)lithium(I) perchlorate

A lithium(I) coordination polymer has been formed from LiClO₄ and the 2,2′‐bipyrimidine (bpym) ligand in which each square pyramidal lithium(I) atom is coordinated in the basal plane by four nitrogen donor atoms derived from two bpym ligands and one water molecule at the apical position. These are connected into a layer structure via hydrogen‐bonding interactions involving the perchlorate anions. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Jensen's inequality for g-expectation: part 1

Briand et al. (Electron. Comm. Probab. 5 (2000) 101–117) gave a counterexample and proposition to show that given g,g-expectations usually do not satisfy Jensen's inequality for most of convex functions. This yields a natural question, under which conditions on g, do g-expectations satisfy Jensen's inequality for convex functions? In this paper, we shall deal with this question in the case that g is convex and give a necessary and sufficient condition on g under which Jensen's inequality holds for convex functions.

Two-dimensional symmetric multimode interferences in silicon square waveguides

Symmetric interference in two-dimensional multimode silicon waveguides is experimentally investigated. For a 100/spl times/100 /spl mu/m/sup 2/ cross section, 2700-/spl mu/m-long waveguide fabricated on silicon-on-insulator substrate, an 8/spl times/8 matrix of replicated images with high contrast ratio is demonstrated for 1530-1570 nm wavelength range. Symmetric interference results in reduced device length, and the actual device length is consistent with the theoretical expectation. The device also exhibits stable imaging in terms of good loss uniformity, and low wavelength and polarization dependencies among the replicated images.     

Fabrication of Dicing-Free Vertical-Structured High-Power GaN-Based Light-Emitting Diodes With Selective Nickel Electroplating and Patterned Laser Liftoff Techniques

Through the use of selective nickel (Ni) electroplating, patterned laser liftoff technique, and surface roughing of the top n-GaN epilayer, a novel process for the fabrication of vertical-structured metal-substrate GaN-based light-emitting diodes (VM-LEDs) to avoid difficulties in Ni substrate dicing and improve device yield was proposed and demonstrated. In conjunction with a sidewall passivation with SiO₂ and keeping the size of epilayer smaller than that of Ni island, a considerable improvement in yield and device performance were shown. As compared to conventional lateral-structured GaN-based LEDs, VM-LEDs show an increase in light output power about 174% at 350 mA with a significant decrease in forward voltage from 3.5 to 3.17 V     

Synthesis and characterization of a polyfluorene containing carbazole and oxadiazole dipolar pendent groups and its application to electroluminescent devices

We have synthesized a blue‐light‐emitting polyfluorene (PF) derivative ( PF‐CBZ‐OXD ) that presents bulky hole‐transporting carbazole and electron‐transporting oxadiazole pendent groups functionalized at the C‐9 positions of alternating fluorene units. The results from photoluminescence and electrochemical measurements indicate that both the side chains and the PF main chain retain their own electronic characteristics in the copolymer. An electroluminescent device incorporating this polymer as the emitting layer was turned on at 4.5 V; it exhibited a stable blue emission with a maximum external quantum efficiency of 1.1%. Moreover, we doped PF‐CBZ‐OXD and its analogue PF‐TPA‐OXD with a red‐light‐emitting iridium phosphor for use as components of phosphorescent red‐light emitters to investigate the effect of the host's HOMO energy level on the degree of charge trapping and on the electrophosphorescent efficiency. We found that spectral overlap and individual energy level matching between the host and guest were both crucial features affecting the performance of the electroluminescence devices. Atomic force microscopy measurements indicated that the dipolar nature of PF‐CBZ‐OXD , in contrast to the general nonpolarity of polydialkylfluorenes, provided a stabilizing environment that allowed homogeneous dispersion of the polar iridium triplet dopant. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel broadcast scheduling strategy using factor graphs and the sum-product algorithm

This paper presents a novel self-organizing distributed algorithm for finding a broadcasting schedule in a packet radio network via only local collaborative interactions among neighboring network stations. Inspired by the huge success of the low density parity check (LDPC) codes in the field of error control coding, we transform the broadcast scheduling problem (BSP) into an LDPC-like problem through a factor graph. In the proposed algorithm, the constraint rules of the BSP are divided into many simple local rules, each of which is enforced by a local processing unit in the factor graph. The soft-information, describing the probability that each station will transmit a data packet, is then efficiently exchanged among the local processing units by using the sum-product algorithm to iteratively optimize the broadcasting schedule. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm performs better than the other existing central-processing algorithms in terms of the channel utilization and the average packet delay. This is true especially when the network scenario is very complex. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is both low in complexity and completely distributed, which makes it suitable for implementation in practical network applications.
