Secure Event-Triggered Mechanism for Networked Control Systems under Injection Cyber-Attacks by Xiao Cai, Jian Kang, Kaibo Shi

“…Secondly, a novel boundary looped function (BLF) is developed depending on the sampling period, fully considering delay and sampling information, and the initial constraints of the criteria on the matrices are effectively relaxed. In addition, appropriate integral inequalities are used, making the obtained criteria less conservative in this paper. …”

A Comparison of Field-Based and Lab-Based Experiments to Evaluate User Experience of Personalised Mobile Devices by Xu Sun, Andrew May

“…Such factors include the system function and effects of actual usage contexts aspects. Where open and relaxed communication is important (e.g., where participant groups are naturally reticent to communicate), this is more readily promoted by the use of a field study.…”

Weighted Couple-Group Consensus Analysis of Heterogeneous Multiagent Systems with Cooperative-Competitive Interactions and Time Delays by Xingcheng Pu, Chaowen Xiong, Lianghao Ji, Longlong Zhao

“…A novel weighted couple-group consensus protocol based on cooperation and competition interaction is designed, which can relax the in-degree balance condition. By using graph theory, general Nyquist criterion and Gerschgorin disc theorem, the time delay upper limit that the system may allow is obtained. …”

Beyond Aid: A New Metric for Official Development Assistance Post-2015 by Rafael Domínguez Martín

“…It seems that in no case ODA will be related to the initial idea of policy coherence, but rather to an attempt among the traditional European donors to cover over their failure to fulfill their commitment to 0.7% of GNP and relax criteria with the (entirely uncertain) purpose of attracting providers of South-South assistance cooperation from the big leagues (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, or BRICS) and the secondary leagues (Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Turkey, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, or Peru) to the Development Assistance Committee.…”

Optimal service selection approach considering both atomic transaction and end-to-end QoS constraints by LIU Hai1, ZHANG Wei-min1, ZHANG Zhu-xi2, JIA Xiong1, LIAO Wei1

“…An actual SCG（service candidate graph） model-based optimal service selection approach was proposed.Firstly,the approach created transactional constraint relationships among candidates as an actual SCG model with several build-ing rules,whose correctness had been also proved;Then,an optimal QoS-aware service selection algorithm on the basis of BFS（breadth first search） was designed,where a relaxing and pruming method was applied to keep the computation scale in polynomial time.Finally,simulation experiments were conducted with real-world QoS dataset and random data-set,whose results demonstrated the beneficial performance on global QoS utility and outstanding successful selecting ra-tio over other related work.Meanwhile,the correctnesss has also been proved in practice by implementing a transactional automation.…”
