Introducing InterSatellite Links (ISLs) is a major trend in new-generation Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs). Data transmission scheduling is a crucial problem in the study of ISL management. The existing research on intersatellite data transmission has not considered the capacities of ISL bandwidth. Thus, the current study is the first to describe the intersatellite data transmission scheduling problem with capacity restrictions in GNSSs. A model conversion strategy is designed to model the aforementioned problem as a length-bounded single-path multicommodity flow problem. An integer programming model is constructed to minimize the maximal sum of flows on each intersatellite edge; this minimization is equivalent to minimizing the maximal occupied ISL bandwidth. An iterated tree search algorithm is proposed to resolve the problem, and two ranking rules are designed to guide the search. Experiments based on the BeiDou satellite constellation are designed, and results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and algorithm.
In present study, the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Channa gachua was determined and the phylogenetic relationship of Channidae fish was reconsidered. The mitogenome of the C. gachua is 16547 bp in length, containing 13 protein coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosome RNA genes (rRNAs), a control region (D-loop) and an origin region of replication on the lightstrand (O L). The overall nucleotide composition is 28.32% A, 26.58% T, 29.41% C, 15.69% G, with 54.90% AT, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that C. gachua belongs to the genus Channa and shares a close relationship with C. marulius and C. striata.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
