Analyzing imbalance among homogeneous index servers in a web search system

The performance of parallel query processing in a cluster of index servers is crucial for modern web search systems. In such a scenario, the response time basically depends on the execution time of the slowest server to generate a partial ranked answer. Previous approaches investigate performance issues in this context using simulation, analytical modeling, experimentation, or a combination of them. Nevertheless, these approaches simply assume balanced execution times among homogeneous servers (by uniformly distributing the document collection among them, for instance)—a scenario that we did not observe in our experimentation. On the contrary, we found that even with a balanced distribution of the document collection among index servers, correlations between the frequency of a term in the query log and the size of its corresponding inverted list lead to imbalances in query execution times at these same servers, because these correlations affect disk caching behavior. Further, the relative sizes of the main memory at each server (with regard to disk space usage) and the number of servers participating in the parallel query processing also affect imbalance of local query execution times. These are relevant findings that have not been reported before and that, we understand, are of interest to the research community.

一类经验Bayes估计的优良性

理论研究和实践结果表明,线性回归模型中最常用的方法——最小二乘法,在一些情况下表现不理想,因此近些年来,统计学家提出了许多替代方法供选择使用。本文通过参数经验Bayes(PEB)方法构造线性回归模型中可估函数的经验Bayes(EB)估计,并分别在均方误差(MSE)准则及均方误差矩阵(MSEM)准则下讨论它相对于最小二乘(LS)估计的优良性。     

四维欧氏空间中曲线的运动不变特征

举例证实了经典的Frenet公式所定义的曲线的三个曲率不能唯一确定曲线到一个运动;借助于四维空间中三个向量的向量积运算在正则曲线上构造右手Frenet标架并重新定义曲线的第三曲率;据此证明四维空间中的运动保持曲线的曲率和挠率不变,但第三曲率当运动含有反射时会改变符号,并证明结论的逆也成立。

Research on the operating characteristics of parallel 4-DOF electric platform with 4TPS-PS structure

The 4TPS-PS parallel platform designed for a stabilization and automatic tracking system is a novel lower-mobility parallel mechanism. In the first part of this paper, the structure of the platform is described and the kinematics model is built. The workspace of the platform is defined as the full reachable rotation workspace when the Z coordinate dimension of the upper plate varies continuously. A fast searching method of the full reachable workspace is presented, after which the inverse kinematics of the platform is deduced. The forward and inverse solutions of the speed and force of the platform are deduced. According to the characteristic of the 4TPS-PS platform’s structure, a fast searching algorithm of the maximum generalized speed and maximum generalized force output by the upper plate is put forward based on the forward and inverse solutions of the platform’s speed and force. The 4TPS-PS platform prototype built by the State Key Laboratory of Fluid Power Transmission and Control of China is taken as the research subject. The full reachable rotation workspace of the prototype is computed out and analyzed. The curves of maximum generalized speed and maximum generalized force of the prototype are computed out and plotted. Finally, the com- puting and analyzing results of the operating characteristics are confirmed through the experiment.
