5G network slicing function migration mechanism based on particle swarm optimization algorithm by Qiang CHEN, Caixia LIU, Lingshu LI

“…In multi-application scenarios of 5G,data traffic often increases dramatically.Virtual machine resources in network slicing may not meet the normal needs of users.In view of this,a network slicing function migration mechanism aiming at load balancing was proposed.The mechanism simulates the virtual machine into particles based on particle swarm optimization algorithm.In the process of migration,all particles were divided into several subgroups,and particle swarm optimization algorithm was applied within and among groups.According to the historical optimal solution and the current global optimal solution,the particle location was updated,and the best target particles were determined by selecting the smaller particle size of the particle in real time.The mechanism not only improves the convergence speed,but also improves the accuracy of the algorithm.Compared with other migration methods,the results show that the proposed migration mechanism has the advantages of high accuracy and fast convergence.And it can also improve the efficiency of resource utilization,reduce the energy consumption of data center,and has better adaptability.…”

Iron Deficiency Impairs Dendritic Cell Development and Function, Compromising Host Anti‐Infection Capacity by Quanzhong Ren, Xiaotong Xu, Zheng Dong, Jiahuang Qiu, Qing'e Shan, Rui Chen, Yajun Liu, Juan Ma, Sijin Liu

“…Abstract The prevalence of acute lower respiratory infections in individuals with iron deficiency (ID) has significantly increased, and is correlated with reduced numbers of immune cells and impaired immune function. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a crucial role in combating the influenza A virus (IAV) by initiating adaptive immune responses. …”

Bilateral functional connectivity of the basal ganglia in patients with Parkinson's disease and its modulation by dopaminergic treatment. by Simon Little, Huiling Tan, Anam Anzak, Alek Pogosyan, Andrea Kühn, Peter Brown

“…The absolute mean values of amplitude co-modulation (0.40 ± 0.03) and phase synchronisation (0.29 ± 0.02) off medication were, however, relatively low, suggesting that the two basal ganglia networks may have to be approached separately with independent sensing and stimulation during adaptive deep brain stimulation. In addition, our findings highlight the functional distinction between the lower and upper beta frequency ranges and between amplitude co-modulation and phase synchronization across subthalamic nuclei.…”
