Wavelets in probability and statistics——A review in recent advances

The main purpose of this paper is to give a review on recent advances of wavelet in probability and statistics. Many interesting new ideas, new results and new methods are introduced in this review. From many aspects of this paper, probability and statistics researchers may rind many new interesting research topics for further studying on wavelets in stochastic processes. New results, such as K- stationarity, wavelet representation of Karhunen processes,hidden periodicities analysis by wavelet approach, heteroscedasticity in wavelet regression, wavelets and neural networks, etc. are introduced in this paper. Comments, discussions and plentiful references are also involved in this review.``

LoColms： an innovative approach of enhancing traditional classroom form of education by promoting web-based distance learning in the poorer countries

There have been numerous attempts recently to promote technology based education (Shrestha, 1997) in the poorer third world countries, but so far all these have not provided a sustainable solution as they are either centered and controlled from abroad and relying solely on foreign donors for their sustenance or they are not web-based, which make distribution problematic, and some are not affordable by most of the local population in these places. In this paper we discuss an application, the Local College Learning Management System (LoColms) , which we are developing, that is both sustainable and economical to suit the situation inthese countries. The application is a web-based system, and aims at improving the traditional form of education by empowering the local universities. Its economicability comes from the fact that it is supported by traditional communication technology, the public switching telephone network system, PSTN, which eliminates the need for packet switched or dedicated private virtual networks (PVN) usually required in similar situations. At a later stage, we shall incorporate ontology and paging tools to improve resource sharability and storage optimization in the Proxy Caches (ProCa) and LoColms servers. The system is based on the client/server paradigm and its infrastructure consists of the PSTN, ProCa, with the learning centers accessing the universities by means of point-to-point protocol (PPP) .     

Pseudo—particle simulation of multi—scale heterogeneity in fluidization

Fluidization is a process of wide application,but its dynamic behavior is not well understood because of its multi-scale heterogeneity and regime multiplicity which are difficult to simulate in traditional numerical methods.By discretizing the fluid phase into a large number of interactive simple particles,which can incorporate many-body moving boundaries easily,pseudo-particle modeling(PPM) has re-produced reasonable radial and axial heterogeneity on macro-scale as well as solids clustering and fluid flows on meso-and micro-scales.The simulation suggestes a consistent evolution of the complexity across different scales with itself scrving as an ideal exploring tool.     

Longling-Lancang fault zone in southwest Yunnan, China——A newly-generated rupture zone in Continental crust

The Longling-Lancang fault zone, consisting of sets of en echelon or clustered faults, is a newly-generated rupture zone. It is characterized by the distribution of active faults, earthquake faults and earthquakes in zones. Formed in the Early-Middle Pleistocene, still active in the late, it moves dextrally and extensionally. It tends to cut off the locked segments and discontinuous segments at first, then pervades totally along the zone, accompanied by strong earthquakes.     

Cultural Effects in Translation——From A Text Linguistic Approach

This paper discusses the cultural effect in translation by exploring the text linguistic approach; especially it 's seven standards. This includes an analysis of the different texts of the language and culture. There is a closet link between these standards and the cultural effect in translation. The paper also offers some simple examples to illusrate some standards of them. In addition, the paper is trying to emphasis the importance between the translation theories and the cultural effect in the process of translation.
