A Research on Dissipative Structure of the Information Resource Organization of E-Government
Government information resource is the foundation of e-government, and government information resource organization pattern is the key factor that affects sustainable development of e-government. At present, a lack of the systematic plan in government information resource organization exists universally. The primary reason is that systematization and formalization of research on government information resource organization pattern is insufficient and lacks support to organize and plan the government information resource. This article starts with the basic assumption of the government information hyper-cycle system consisting of e-government and its object system, depicts the dissipative structure of government information resource organization through introducing superior-rank operator and lower-rank operator in algebra system, and explores actively the self-organized, extensible and universal government information resource organization pattern based on hyper-cycle (PBHC) systematic plan.

The Separation of Duty with Privilege Calculus
This paper presents Privilege Calculus (PC) as a new approach of knowledge representation for Separation of Duty (SD) in the view of process and intents to improve the reconfigurability and traceability of SD. PC presumes that the structure of SD should be reduced to the structure of privilege and then the regulation of system should be analyzed with the help of forms of privilege.

An Object-Dependent and Context Constraints-Aware Access Control Approach Based on RBAC
The universal adoption of the Internet requires a fine grained access control in the sharing of sensitive resources. However, existing access control mechanisms are inflexible and do not help in alleviating the management task of administrating users’ access to resources based on security policies. In this paper, we propose an approach to implement fine-grained access control based on RBAC while considering specific context constraints. The approach is object-dependent and policy-enforced through binding policies to particular object. In the policies, context constraints are incorporated to support separation of duties (SoD). Furthermore, the implement of the approach is described in detail and an application to meet specific access control requirements of comprehensive knowledge management system in an aviation enterprise is presented.

An Approach to Enterprise Application Integration Based on Ontology Semantic Description
This paper systematically provides an enterprise application integration (EAI) approach for the complex product design industry in which the application integration has long been difficult. In addition, the complex product’s data sources are distributed in different enterprise application systems which resulted in the design ontology’s heterogeneousness. Similarly, the differences in enterprise application systems bring about the heterogeneousness of the application ontology. Based on an actual project, this paper studies the nonobjective characteristic of the heterogeneous design ontology and heterogeneous application ontology in the complex product design industry, and establishes the common semantic description models for the two types of ontology respectively. In the actual project, an information system is developed and has been successfully applied to an enterprise.

Mining Condensed and Lossless Association Rules by Pruning Redundancy
There are excessive and disordered rules generated by traditional approaches of association rule mining, many of which are redundant, so that they are difficult for users to understand and make use of. Han et al pointed out the bottleneck of association rules mining is not on whether we can derive the complete set of rules under certain constraints efficiently but on whether we can derive a compact but high quality set of rules. To solve this problem, a new method was represented, which is based on statistics and probability to get a condensed rules set by removing redundant rules. Our set of rules is more concise, more intelligible and easier to manage and use than others. Especially, the condensed set is lossless so that its switch to original rules-set can be realized. Itpsilas important because the switch keeps the information complete. Experiments on some datasets show that the number of rules in rules-set has been reduced greatly.

A Decentralized Resource Discovery Based on Keywords Combinations and Node Clusters in Knowledge Grid
The organization and discovery of grid resources are foundational and key subjects in grid research. Many research works in this field have presented the solutions to the problem, but few of them are focused on knowledge resources. This paper aims to explore how to support user's knowledge requests submitted in form of multi-keywords. We present a decentralized resource discovery method based on keyword combinations and node clusters. In the method, hot keyword combinations are formed based on user's knowledge requests. Then, grid nodes can be clustered according to these keyword combinations and user's knowledge requests will be transmitted to those clusters that have high correlations with the requests.

Investigation of Research towards Efficient Social Peer-to-Peer Networks
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks attract attentions worldwide with their great success in file sharing networks (e.g. Napster, Gnutella, BitTorrent, and Kazaa). In the last decade, numerous studies have been devoted to the problem of resource discovery in P2P networks. However, efficient resource discovery remains a key challenge for large-scale P2P networks. An investigation of existing research on resource discovery towards efficient social P2P networks will be given in this paper.

Social Peer-to-Peer for Resource Discovery
For resource discovery in social networks, people can directly contact some acquaintances that have knowledge about the resources they are looking for. However, in current peer-to-peer networks, peer nodes lack capabilities similar to social networks, making it difficult to route queries efficiently. In this paper, we present a social-like system (Social-P2P) for resource discovery by mimicking human behaviours in social networks. Different from most informed search algorithms, peer nodes learn knowledge from the results of previous searches and no additional overhead is required to obtain extra information from neighbouring nodes. Unlike community-based P2P information sharing systems, we do not intend to create and maintain peer groups or communities consciously. Peer nodes with the same interests will be highly connected to each other spontaneously. Social-P2P has been simulated in a dynamic environment. From the simulation results and analysis, Social-P2P achieved better performance than current methods

Delivering Sustainable Capability on Evolutionary Service-oriented Architecture
Network Enabled Capability (NEC) is the U.K. Ministry of Defence’s response to the quickly changing conflict environment in which its forces must operate. In NEC, systems need to be integrated in context, to assist in human activity and provide dependable inter-operation. In order to provide reliable and sustainable military capability, fast paced changes must be conducted without halting the operation of a capability. In this paper we present the concept of evolutionary service-oriented architecture for delivering sustainable capability. The reliability of the architecture is evaluated by simulations using a computer-based model. The simulation results indicate that the evolutionary service-oriented architecture can provide higher reliability and sustainability in the provision of capability in a dynamic environment.

A new high gain low voltage 1.45 GHz CMOS mixer
A new architecture of CMOS downconversion mixer for low voltage and high gain communication applications is proposed. This topology avoids the stacking of transistors between the power and ground lines, thus it can work on a low supply voltage. It does not need inductors, so it is relatively easy to fabricate. This mixer is implemented using a 0.25 /spl mu/m CMOS technology with supply voltage of 2 V. With 1.452 GHz LO input and 1.45 GHz RF input, simulation result show that the conversion gain is 15 dB, IIP3 is -4.5 dBm, noise figure is 17 dB, the maximum transient power dissipation is 9.3 mW and DC power dissipation is 9.2 mW. The mixer's noise and linearity analyses are also presented.
