Abstract: Decoupled computing systems include layers of same-type computing resources, and include a dispatch layer to assign tasks from one layer to another, such as input and output (I/O) flows. The I/O flows can be assigned to particular computing resources of a layer based on a weighted moving average of performance data for the layer. When traffic is high, the assignment can include random assignment to some or all of the computing resources in the layer. The I/O flows can be split between read-intensive and write-intensive flows, with more read-intensive flows being assigned based on a pick ratio.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an inverse design method of an on-chip filter based on equivalent circuit space mapping, and belongs to the technical field of radio frequency integrated circuits. According to the present invention, based on an equivalent circuit model, a nonlinear relationship between performance parameters and structure parameters of a CMOS millimeter-wave filter is divided into two parts, namely, a part of realizing mapping from performance parameters to equivalent circuit element values by virtue of an odd and even mode theory; and a part of establishing an artificial neural network (ANN) model, in which input vectors are the equivalent circuit element values and output vectors are the structure parameters. By space mapping in the design of the present invention, the defect of discretized sampling of the scattering parameters in a traditional modeling design method is avoided; and compared with forward optimization, the required design time can be significantly shortened.

Abstract: This invention publishes a method for statistical analysis of aggregate encrypted data with key-leakage resilience for smart grids. In this invention, every user area is managed by a fog node which plays the role of data aggregation gateway and data relay. All the users' electricity consumption data sent by smart meters in the same user area are firstly aggregated by the fog node to generate a fog-level aggregate ciphertext. Then the fog node further generates a digital signature for the fog-level aggregate ciphertext and sends these data to a cloud server for long-time storage. The cloud server stores all the aggregate ciphertexts and digital signatures received from different user areas in its database, and provides data query and statistical analysis services for the control center of smart grids.
