Cosmological constraints from Radial Baryon Acoustic Oscillation measurements and Observational Hubble data
We use the Radial Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (RBAO) measurements, distant
type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), the observational data (OHD) and the Cosmic
Microwave Background (CMB) shift parameter data to constrain cosmological
parameters of CDM and XCDM cosmologies and further examine the role of
OHD and SNe Ia data in cosmological constraints. We marginalize the likelihood
function over by integrating the probability density to obtain the best fitting results and the confidence regions
in the plane.With the combination analysis for
both of the {\rm }CDM and XCDM models, we find that the confidence
regions of 68.3%, 95.4% and 99.7% levels using OHD+RBAO+CMB data are in good
agreement with that of SNe Ia+RBAO+CMB data which is consistent with the result
of Lin et al's work. With more data of OHD, we can probably constrain the
cosmological parameters using OHD data instead of SNe Ia data in the future.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, 2 tables, accepted for publication in Physics

Cosmological constraints on holographic dark energy models under the energy conditions
We study the holographic and agegraphic dark energy models without
interaction using the latest observational Hubble parameter data (OHD), the
Union2.1 compilation of type Ia supernovae (SNIa), and the energy conditions.
Scenarios of dark energy are distinguished by the cut-off of cosmic age,
conformal time, and event horizon. The best-fit value of matter density for the
three scenarios almost steadily located at by the joint
constraint. For the agegraphic models, they can be recovered to the standard
cosmological model when the constant which presents the fraction of dark
energy approaches to infinity. Absence of upper limit of by the joint
constraint demonstrates the recovery possibility. Using the fitted result, we
also reconstruct the current equation of state of dark energy at different
scenarios, respectively. Employing the model criteria
, we find that conformal time model is the worst,
but they can not be distinguished clearly. Comparing with the observational
constraints, we find that SEC is fulfilled at redshift with confidence level. We also find that NEC gives a meaningful
constraint for the event horizon cut-off model, especially compared with OHD
only. We note that the energy condition maybe could play an important role in
the interacting models because of different degeneracy between and
constant .Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in PR
Web Service Reputation Evaluation Based on QoS Measurement
In the early service transactions, quality of service (QoS) information was published by service provider which was not always true and credible. For better verification the trust of the QoS information was provided by the Web service. In this paper, the factual QoS running data are collected by our WS-QoS measurement tool; based on these objectivity data, an algorithm compares the difference of the offered and measured quality data of the service and gives the similarity, and then a reputation evaluation method computes the reputation level of the Web service based on the similarity. The initial implementation and experiment with three Web services' example show that this approach is feasible and these values can act as the references for subsequent consumers to select the service
