Abstract: A short message processing method and apparatus in short message interactive communication is disclosed that allocates identification codes to each service instance and performs short message interaction with uses using numbers embedded with the identification codes. In the short message processing method and apparatus of the present invention, in response to receiving of a short message from a communication terminal, a service instance for the short message is determined based on a server-side communication number contained in the short message, and then a reply short message is sent to the communication terminal using the server-side communication number that is embedded with a service instance identification code corresponding to the determined service instance. The present invention is capable of accurately and conveniently correlating a plurality of short messages with corresponding service instances, thereby enhancing users' experience during an interactive process.

Abstract: The disclosure related to a method for making a nanowire structure. The method includes fabricating a free-standing carbon nanotube structure, introducing reacting materials into the carbon nanotube structure, and activating the reacting materials to grow a nanowire structure.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for assisting in delivering update contents in computer networks are provided. The computer networks also comprise at least one peer client, and the assistant apparatus comprises: an evaluating unit configured to evaluate a user's interaction preference according to the user's interaction history; and a prefetching unit configured to evaluate, in response to the received update notification, whether to prefetch the update contents corresponding to the update notification according to the evaluated interaction preference, and, if prefetching, obtain the update contents from at least one peer client. The corresponding method is also provided. With the apparatus and method in this invention, the update contents in computer networks can be delivered between peer clients, not via the server, which reduces the server load without impairing user experience on client side.

Abstract: A method and device of identifying payload of a data packet in a TCP stream. The method includes the steps of: calculating a payload signature according to information in header of the data packet in the TCP stream; comparing the payload signature with a pre-stored file signature; determining the payload of the data packet in the TCP stream as belonging to a file corresponding to the pre-stored file signature, in response to a match between payload signatures of multiple data packets and the pre-stored file signature. The present invention can monitor and identify TCP streams by using a more efficient and lower cost solution.

Abstract: Simplifying transmission in a distributed parallel computing system. The method includes: identifying at least one item in a data input to the parallel computing unit; creating a correspondence relation between the at least one item and indices thereof according to a simplification coding algorithm, where the average size of the indices is less than the average size of the at least one item; replacing the at least one item with the corresponding indices according to the correspondence relation; generating simplified intermediate results by the parallel computing unit based on the indices; and transmitting the simplified intermediate results. The invention also provides a system corresponding to the above method.
