Software-defined measurement (SDM) is a simple and efficient way to deploy measurement tasks and collect measurement data. With SDM, it is convenient for operators to implement fine-grained network-wide measurements at the flow level, from which many important functions can benefit. The prior work provides mechanisms to distribute flows to monitors, such that each monitor can identify its non-overlapped subset of flows to measure, and a certain global performance criterion is optimized, such as load balance or flow coverage.

Due to the potential economic benefits, pedestrian flow is considered an essential indication of public spaces. Pedestrian flow prediction is designed to assist operators in making decisions (such as shopping center owners). Operators hold certain events, such as sales promotions, to attract surrounding pedestrians; we refer to this type of event as a business event.

Background: Choledochal cyst, an isolated defect unrestricted to the bile duct, is more appropriately regarded as the sentinel feature of a constellation of anomalies affecting the pancreatobiliary system. This study was to assess the relationship between the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and the p53 gene as well as the pathogenesis of choledochal cysts.
Methods: iNOS and p53 were detected by immunohistochemistry staining in 26 patients with congenital choledochal cysts.
