Abstract: A photovoltaic system and a communication method therefor. The communication method includes: each slave sends a report signal to a host, and monitors a response signal of the host; and if the at least one slave receives the response signal, the corresponding slave executes a corresponding action on the basis of the response signal. Therefore, communication between the host and each slave is achieved in a mode that each slave actively sends the report signal, the host is prevented from adopting a roll call query mode, and occupation of bus resources by the host is reduced.

Abstract: In an example, in connection with a search clustering system, a grouping component retrieves a timestamp set of news queries and determines a time-stable set of news query groups by performing the first stage of a two-stage clustering technique. A clustering component determines a time-stable set of news query groups clusters by performing the second stage of the two-stage clustering technique. The performance of the two-stage clustering technique is aided by a least recently used caching component. The time-stable set of news query groups clusters may be served to a web page in order to generate a trending topic list for display.

Abstract: A BS sleeping strategy for a two-tier HeCN that consists of MaBS and MiBS. The approach involves strategically consolidating workloads distributed across the network onto fewer BSs. At the heart of the strategy is a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BLSTM) neural network, which predicts future traffic for each user. The predicted traffic data informs the proposed BS sleeping strategy, which shifts user connections from under-utilized MiBSs to other BSs, subsequently powering down the idle MiBSs, while MaBSs remain always on. This strategy is executed with utmost consideration for maintaining service quality, ensuring that the switch does not degrade each user's Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio thresholds or traffic demand rate.
