An optimized approach for container deployment driven by a two-stage load balancing mechanism.

Lightweight container technology has emerged as a fundamental component of cloud-native computing, with the deployment of containers and the balancing of loads on virtual machines representing significant challenges. This paper presents an optimization strategy for container deployment that consists of two stages: coarse-grained and fine-grained load balancing. In the initial stage, a greedy algorithm is employed for coarse-grained deployment, facilitating the distribution of container services across virtual machines in a balanced manner based on resource requests.

The impact of workplace bullying on depression among clinical nurses in China: A comparative analysis.

The objective of this study is to examine the phenomenon of workplace bullying and its potential associations with burnout and depression among clinical nurses in China. A convenience sampling method was utilized to conduct a survey among 415 clinical nurses across 9 hospitals. All questionnaires were completed within a 2-week period in October 2023.

Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding: Analysis of 462 hospitalized Chinese patients in Shanghai.

While acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) remains clinically critical, the etiology of bleeding and risk factors for mortality remain uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the underlying causes of AUGIB and identify risk factors associated with fatality. A retrospective survey was conducted in a major clinical hospital in Shanghai, where inpatients diagnosed with AUGIB were meticulously collected and analyzed.

Harnessing spatiotemporal transformation in magnetic domains for nonvolatile physical reservoir computing.

Combining physics with computational models is increasingly recognized for enhancing the performance and energy efficiency in neural networks. Physical reservoir computing uses material dynamics of physical substrates for temporal data processing. Despite the ease of training, building an efficient reservoir remains challenging.
