Online MapReduce scheduling problem of minimizing the makespan

MapReduce system is a popular big data processing framework, and the performance of it is closely related to the efficiency of the centralized scheduler. In practice, the centralized scheduler often has little information in advance, which means each job may be known only after being released. In this paper, hence, we consider the online MapReduce scheduling problem of minimizing the makespan, where jobs are released over time. Both preemptive and non-preemptive version of the problem are considered. In addition, we assume that reduce tasks cannot be parallelized because they are often complex and hard to be decomposed. For the non-preemptive version, we prove the lower bound is \(\frac{m+m(\Psi (m)-\Psi (k))}{k+m(\Psi (m)-\Psi (k))}\), higher than the basic online machine scheduling problem, where k is the root of the equation \(k=\big \lfloor {\frac{m-k}{1+\Psi (m)-\Psi (k)}+1 }\big \rfloor \) and m is the quantity of machines. Then we devise an \((2-\frac{1}{m})\)-competitive online algorithm called MF-LPT (Map First-Longest Processing Time) based on the LPT. For the preemptive version, we present a 1-competitive algorithm for two machines.     

Optimal RSUs deployment with delay bound along highways in VANET

In order to broadcast an alert message from the accident site to the control center as soon as possible, the roadside units (RSUs) act as the critical component in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). It is not possible to make a pervasive RSU deployment due to the huge cost and market requirement. Hence, how to deploy a minimum number of RSUs in a given region becomes a challenge problem. In this paper, we present an analysis for the total delay of broadcasting alert messages in VANETs along highways. Based on the analysis, the relationship between optimal number of RSUs with the highway distance is given. Moreover, the experiment results verifies the delay analysis and the optimization of RSUs deployment.     

Fibonacci helps to evacuate from a convex region in a grid network

This study considers an evacuation problem where the evacuees try to escape to the boundary of an affected area, which is convex, and a grid network is embedded in the area. The boundary is unknown to the evacuees and we propose an online evacuation strategy based on the Fibonacci sequence. This strategy is proved to have a competitive ratio of 19.5, which is better than the best previously reported result of 21.     

Operational Risk in Financial Services: A Review and New Research Opportunities

We present a framework to describe and analyze operational risk in financial services from an operations management perspective, focusing in particular on process design, process management, and human behavior aspects. The financial services industry differs from other service industries in ways that affect the nature of the operational risks it is subject to. In recent decades, many books and papers have focused on operational risk in financial services; however, this literature has focused mainly on the conceptual and statistical aspects of operational risk management and not on its operational aspects. Operational risk in financial services has not received much attention from the operations management community. The framework presented here is based on the premise that operational risk in financial services can reap significant benefits from research done in the theory and practice of operations management in manufacturing industries as well as in other services industries. The objective of this study is to propose particular challenges and questions raised in the practice of operational risk management that may stimulate future research in this particular area of operations management.     

尾风险度量与定价能力分析

经典资本资产定价模型假设资产收益服从正态分布或者投资者效用函数是二次型,然而实际中资产收益的分布呈现尖峰厚尾特征,因而无法在均值-方差框架下分析风险与收益的关系。与资产收益正常变化相比,极端变化带来的尾风险会对市场风险和投资者的决策行为产生更为显著的影响,因此研究尾风险的度量方法和定价能力具有一定理论和实践意义。 依据极值理论,基于Fama-French的3因子模型无法解释的收益残差构建尾风险度量模型。选取中国股票市场沪深A股作为研究对象,以历史滑动窗估计尾风险,投资组合分析和横截面回归分析的结果都表明尾风险可以稳定地负向预测股票收益,在控制规模、交易量、非流动性、短期反转、中期动量、特质波动率、特质偏度等股票特征后,尾风险的负向预测能力依然显著。引入融资融券交易,发现融资融券标的股票的尾风险显著低于非融资融券标的股票的尾风险,而且可以消除尾风险的负向溢价,因而中国资本市场尚未完全开放融资融券交易机制可能是产生尾风险负向溢价的主要原因。 通过买多-卖空组合构建尾风险定价因子,发现尾风险因子比投资因子和盈利因子有更高的风险价格,而且并不是相对于Fama-French的5因子的冗余因子。与Fama-French的3因子模型和5因子模型相比,Fama-French的3因子或5因子基础上包含尾风险因子的定价模型对股票横截面收益有更好的解释能力,因而有更高的定价效率。 2008年全球金融危机爆发后,对尾风险定价能力的忽略使已有资产定价模型受到广泛批评。因此,探究尾风险的度量方法以及分析尾风险的定价能力,不仅有助于完善和拓展资产定价理论,而且有助于降低投资者对股票价格的认知偏差,提升市场资源配置效率和维护市场稳定性。

Wide Diameters of Cartesian Product Graphs and Digraphs

In graph theory and study of fault tolerance and transmission delay of networks, connectivity and diameter of a graph are two very important parameters and have been deeply studied by many authors. Wide diameter combining connectivity with diameter is a more important parameter to measure fault tolerance and efficiency of parallel processing computer networks and has received much attention in the recent years. Diameter with width k of a graph G is defined as the minimum integer d for which between any two distinct vertices in G there exist at least k internally disjoint paths of length at most d. In the present paper, the tight upper bounds of wide diameter of the Cartesian product graphs are obtained. Some known results can be deduced or improved from ours.     

基于股利变更公告的股利信号效应研究

本文根据上市公司发布的股利变更公告,提供了一个比之前文献利用年报研究股利市场反应更为干净的方法,研究上市公司股利发放的市场反应。本文进一步研究了各种股利发放变动与公司现金流、盈余之间的关系,从而对上市公司股利政策的信号传递效应进行检验。结果发现,我国上市公司的现金股利发放并没有信号传递效应;股票股利发放只是传递了关于公司当期净利润的信息,并没有传递关于公司未来盈余的信息。具体来说,市场对现金股利变更的反应不及对股票股利变更的反应敏感;同时发现,现金股利的变更与公司现金流、盈余之间并没有显著关系,而股票股利的变更则参考了当期净利润的表现。
