Abstract Despite the support of all kinds of fire prevention measures and high-tech fire prevention equipment, fires still occur frequently because of both anthropogenic factors and natural disasters. This issue has drawn the attention of schools, all levels of government, and other organizations. Many types of organizations carry out fire drills throughout the year. Because this kind of drill cannot anticipate the specific circumstances of each fire, which are generally far more complicated than drills, most people cannot correctly choose the optimal escape route from real fires. Thus, a fire-scene virtual simulation system based on the More >

Abstract To model a true three-dimensional (3D) display system, we introduced the method of voxel molding to obtain the stereoscopic imaging space of the system. For the distribution of each voxel, we proposed a four-dimensional (4D) Givone–Roessor (GR) model for state-space representation—that is, we established a local state-space model with the 3D position and one-dimensional time coordinates to describe the system. First, we extended the original elementary operation approach to a 4D condition and proposed the implementation steps of the realization matrix of the 4D GR model. Then, we described the working process of a true More >

Abstract In the digital era, how to ensure the authenticity and integrity of electronic records has become an open challenging issue. Front-end control is an important concept as well as a basic principle in electronic record management. Under the instruction of front-end control, many original management links in the record-management stage are required to move forward, and the managers enter the formation stage of the electronic records to ensure the originality. However, the front-end control technique primarily focuses on transaction management, and it lacks the strategy of providing the control of electronic records. In this paper,… More >

Abstract Finance is the core of modern economy, and a strong country cannot do without the support of financial system. With the rapid development of economy and society, the traditional financial services can not support the increasingly large and complex economic system. As a brand-new format, financial technology can help the financial industry to restructure and upgrade. At the same time, as an international consensus, green development is the only way for China to achieve sustainable development. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to study the impact of finance on the regional development of green… More >

Abstract The heavy-tailed distributions are very useful and play a major role in actuary and financial management problems. Actuaries are often searching for such distributions to provide the best fit to financial and economic data sets. In the current study, a prominent method to generate new distributions useful for modeling heavy-tailed data is considered. The proposed family is introduced using trigonometric function and can be named as the Arcsine-X family of distributions. For the purposes of the demonstration, a specific sub-model of the proposed family, called the Arcsine-Weibull distribution is considered. The maximum likelihood estimation method is… More >

Abstract Blockchain can mean many things to many people. It is a set of protocols and encryption technologies for securely storing data on a distributed network for the developers. It is a distributed ledger for business and finance and the technology underlying the explosion of new digital currencies. For technologists, it is the driving force behind the next generation of the internet. On the other hand, it is a transformational technology facilitating large-scale human progress in previously unimagined ways for the rest of the people, a tool for radically reshaping society and economy. Some view it… More >

Abstract Wireless Sensor Actor Networks (WSANs) have contributed to the development of pervasive computing wherein time consideration to perform the tasks of pervasive applications is necessary. Hence, time constraint is one of the major challenges of WSANs. In this paper, we propose an analytical approach based on queuing theory to minimize the total time taken for completion of tasks, i.e., make-span, in WSANs with hybrid architecture. The best allocation rates of tasks to actor nodes are figured out through solving inequities and qualities resulting from a steady state analysis of the proposed model. Applying the calculated… More >

Abstract PoW (Proof of Work) plays a significant role in most blockchain systems to grant an accounting right over decentralized participants and ensure tamper resistance. Though hash functions are generally exploited for PoW due to their merits on summering, anti-collision, and irreversibility, they cannot certify that the bookkeeper is exactly the worker. Thereafter, such insistence may lead to abuse or even embezzlement of computing power for the benefit of malicious miners. To preserve the functionality of PoW but also bind the miners’ signing keys with their works, we build a post-quantum PoW scheme by changing the More >

Abstract With the increasing number of airports and the expansion of their scale, the aviation network has become complex and hierarchical. In order to investigate the complex network characteristics of aviation networks, this paper constructs a Chinese aviation network model and carries out related research based on complex network theory and K-means algorithm. Initially, the P-space model is employed to construct the Chinese aviation network model. Then, complex network indicators such as degree, clustering coefficient, average path length, betweenness and coreness are selected to investigate the complex characteristics and hierarchical features of aviation networks and explore… More >

Abstract Wind speed prediction is of great importance because it affects the efficiency and stability of power systems with a high proportion of wind power. Temporal-spatial wind speed features contain rich information; however, their use to predict wind speed remains one of the most challenging and less studied areas. This paper investigates the problem of predicting wind speeds for multiple sites using temporal and spatial features and proposes a novel two-layer attention-based long short-term memory (LSTM), termed 2Attn-LSTM, a unified framework of encoder and decoder mechanisms to handle temporal-spatial wind speed data. To eliminate the unevenness… More >
