In this paper, we develop a newly adaptive application offloading decision-transmission scheduling scheme which can solve above problem efficiently. Specifically, we first propose an adaptive application offloading model which allows multiple target clouds coexisting. Second, based on Lyapunov optimization theory, a low complexity adaptive offloading decision-transmission scheduling scheme has been proposed. And the performance analysis is also given. Finally, simulation results show that,compared with that all applications are executed locally, mobile device can save 68.557% average execution time and 67.095% average energy consumption under situations.展开更多

On the basis of the model of underdetermined blind source separation, the artificial neural network with single-layer perceptron is introduced into the proposed algorithm. Source signals are regarded as the weight vector of single-layer perceptron, and approximate ι~0-norm is taken into account for output error decision rule of the perceptron, which leads to the sparse recovery. Then the procedure of source recovery is adjusting the weight vector of the perceptron. What's more, the optimal learning factor is calculated and a descent sequence of smoothed parameter is used during iteration, which improves the performance and significantly decreases computational complexity of the proposed algorithm. The simulation results reveal that the algorithm proposed can recover the source signal with high precision, while it requires lower computational cost.展开更多

A core optical part of the system is demonstrated with a sample rate of 10 Gs/s. The signals in three channels are demultiplexed from the optical pulses.The result proves our scheme is feasible.展开更多
