Effective Location Based Services with Dynamic Data Management in Mobile Environments

With the proliferation of mobile computing technologies, location based services have been identified as one of the most promising target application. We classify mobile information service domains based on feature characteristics of the information sources and different patterns of mobile information access. By carefully examining the service requirements, we identify the dynamic data management problem that must be addressed for effective location based services in mobile environments. We then devise a general architecture and cost model for servicing both location independent and location dependent data. Based on the architecture and cost model, we propose a set of dynamic data management strategies that employs judicious caching, proactive server pushing and neighborhood replication to reduce service cost and improve response time under changing user mobility and access patterns. Detail behavior analysis helps us in precisely capturing when and how to apply these strategies. Simulation results suggest that different strategies are effective for different types of data in response to different patterns of movement and information access.

A method for calculating invariant subspaces of symmetric hyperbolic equations

An algorithm is constructed for calculating invariant subspaces of symmetric hyperbolic systems arising in electromagnetic, acoustic, and elasticity problems. Discrete approximations are calculated for subspaces that correspond to minimal eigenvalues and smooth eigenfunctions. Difficulties related to the presence of an infinite-dimensional kernel in the differential operator are successfully handled. The efficiency of the algorithm is demonstrated using acoustics equations.     

Cochran's statistical theorem for outer inverses of matrices and matrix quadratic forms

We extend the matrix version of Cochran's statistical theorem to outer inverses of a matrix. As applications, we investigate the Wishartness and independence of matrix quadratic forms for Kronecker product covariance structures.

异质谷间转移电子器件的计算机模拟

使用弛豫时间近似求出了描述两能谷间电子交换的方程。在此基础上建立了双能谷电子的连续性方程和油松方程。对具体的ＧａＡｓ／ＡｌｘＧａ１－ｘＡｓ异质谷间转移电子器件结构求解了这些方程组，得到了直流工作时器件内的电场分布、双能谷中载流子的布居以及两个能谷的电流分布。这些结果正好和常规Ｇｕｎｎ器件相反，说明了两种器件的不同工作机理。最后通过对低Ａｌ组份势垒结构的计算说明了Ｘ谷电子注入对器件工作的重要作用。
