An Efficient WSN Simulator for GPU-Based Node Performance by An Na Kang, Hyun-Woo Kim, Leonard Barolli, Young-Sik Jeong

“…While a number of simulators have been developed, simulation results can be fairly limited and the execution speed can be markedly slow depending on the function of each simulator. In this regard, to improve the performance of existing simulators, this research aimed to develop a parallel calculation simulator for independent sensor (PCSIS) that enables users to selectively use the GPU mode and, based on this mode, enables parallel and independent operations by matching GPU with many cores in order to resolve the slowdown of the execution speed when numerous sensor nodes are used for simulations. …”

Community Detection in Social Network Based on Node Influence Expansion by YANG Hailu, ZHAO Xin, CHEN Chen, WANG Lili

“… Community structure is a type of node aggregate that exists on both a micro and macro scale, and it is critical to fully comprehend the behavior and law of social network users.Traditional community detection approaches presume that all nodes in a network have the same status, neglecting the influence and function of node influence in community formation.To solve this problem, a community detection method based on node influence expansion is proposed. …”

Immune microenvironment of tumor-draining lymph nodes: insights for immunotherapy by Jiahuan Wei, Daozhang Li, Haixia Long, Mei Han

“…However, our current understanding of the microenvironment within these lymph nodes remains limited. Tumors not only impair the anti-tumor activity of CD8+ T cells by creating an immunosuppressive microenvironment, but they also facilitate immune evasion and promote metastasis by altering the structure and function of TDLNs. …”

Identifying Influential Nodes Based on Evidence Theory in Complex Network by Fu Tan, Xiaolong Chen, Rui Chen, Ruijie Wang, Chi Huang, Shimin Cai

“…To address this issue, a new method based on the Dempster–Shafer (DS) evidence theory is proposed in this paper, which improves the efficiency of identifying influential nodes through the following three aspects. Firstly, Dempster–Shafer evidence theory quantifies uncertainty through its basic belief assignment function and combines evidence from different information sources, enabling it to effectively handle uncertainty. …”
