This paper introduces four layers of cloud storage architecture： data storage layer （connecting multiple storage components）, data management layer （providing common support technology for multiple services）, data service layer （sustaining multiple storage applications）, and user access layer. A typical cloud storage application--Backup Cloud （B-Cloud）--is examined and its software architecture, characteristics, and main research areas are discussed.展开更多

Hardware circuits and programming methods for the attendance checking node are discussed,including the single-chip computer with CAN controller AT89C51CC03,the CAN bus transceiver TJA1050,the large capacity DataFlash memory,the real-time clock DS1302,the voice chip ISD2560 and the card-reading circuit in Wie-gand format. All the extended hardware satisfies the requirements for intrinsically safe circuits (GB3836.4-2000) and intrinsically safe authentication promoted by the national explosion-proof institute. Further,the software programming methods for the CAN controller (AT89C51CC03) and the implementation of the CAN communications protocol are presented as well.展开更多

The new method is based on the Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) and kernel PCA (Kernel Principal Compo- nent Analysis, KPCA). For non-linear monitoring systems the key to fault detection is the extracting of main features. The wavelet packet transform is a novel technique of signal processing that possesses excellent characteristics of time-frequency localization. It is suitable for analysing time-varying or transient signals. KPCA maps the original input features into a higher dimension feature space through a non-linear mapping. The principal components are then found in the higher dimen- sion feature space. The KPCA transformation was applied to extracting the main nonlinear features from experimental fault feature data after wavelet packet transformation. The results show that the proposed method affords credible fault detection and identification.展开更多

They play an important role of enhancing and improving coverage and flexibility of safety monitoring systems.Regions prone to danger and environments after disasters in underground mines require saving and balancing energy consumption of nodes to prolong the lifespan of networks.Based on the structure of a tunnel,we present a Long Chain-type Wireless Sensor Network（LC-WSN）to monitor the safety of underground mine tunnels.We define the optimal transmission distance and the range of the key region and present an Energy Optimal Routing（EOR）algorithm for LC-WSN to balance the energy consumption of nodes and maximize the lifespan of networks.EOR constructs routing paths based on an optimal transmission distance and uses an energy balancing strategy in the key region.Simulation results show that the EOR algorithm extends the lifespan of a network,balances the energy consumption of nodes in the key region and effectively limits the length of routing paths,compared with similar algorithms.展开更多
