Drawing attention to the governing role of capital accumulation and its interaction with the state, this study examines the dynamics of the new wave of suburbanization in China, which is characterized by the development of new towns. New towns essentially function as a spatial fix in China's contemporary accumulation regime. Rather than resulting from capital switching from the primary to the secondary circuits, new towns help to collect funds for the leverage of industrial capital and thus simultaneously sustain both circuits. Meanwhile, the development of new towns is also a process of territorial development, in which municipal governments expand the space of accumulation under strengthened fiscal and land controls and develop a metropolitan structure. Underlying the specific form and dynamics, however, is the worldwide trend of capital switching from declining manufacturing industries in developed countries to the new investment frontier in developing countries.

In this paper, we generalize the Friendship Theorem. Let A be any nonnegative integer and p be any positive integer. Suppose each pair of friends have exactly A common friends and each pair of strangers have exactly p common friends in a party. The corresponding graph is a generalization of strongly regular graphs obtained by relaxing the regularity property on vertex degrees. We prove that either everyone has exactly the same number of friends or there exists a politician who is a friend of everybody. As an immediate consequence, this implies a recent conjecture by Limaye et al.

An accounts-based population model for making population projections for the urban and rural areas of China was developed and reported on in detail in an earlier paper. In this paper the implications of the broad trends in population and labour-force growth over the next fifty years for the employment position in China will be discussed. Unemployment and underemployment are problems facing China today. Ongoing economic reform in the employment system runs the risk of rapidly increasing the number of unemployed, especially in urban China. In this paper, the following main dimensions of the employment problem in China will be discussed: Labour-resource utilization and employment structure, the dual employment system between urban and rural areas, unemployment and underemployment, employment-system reform, and labour-force quality and training.

© 2018 IEEE. Cloud computing architecture and infrastructure has received an acceptance from corporations and governments across the globe. Cloud computing helped to reduce cost of management of physical and technical infrastructure at the same time has made information systems available for locally globally deployed work force. Cloud computing infrastructure provides access to data and applications from any location and this has made organizations to keep evaluating privacy and security framework. Banking and financial services have data and applications which are internally developed to remain ahead of competition. This data and applications becomes the Intellectual Property (IP) that serves specific business processes and goals. When this data and applications can be accessed from remote locations, there may be a potential risks of data leakages and erosion of IP over a period of time. With an adoption of cloud computing, banking and financial services industry continues to be under strict regulatory and compliance framework to maintain privacy of data and security of systems. Privacy and security of cloud architecture infrastructure continues to be the challenge across the globe. In this paper, various aspects of cloud computing related to data privacy and system security for banking and financial services industry have been introduced.

This paper introduces a novel method to convert trimmed NURBS surfaces to untrimmed subdivision surfaces with Bézier edge conditions. We take a NURBS surface and its trimming curves as input, from this we automatically compute a base mesh, the limit surface of which fits the trimmed NURBS surface to a specified tolerance. We first construct the topology of the base mesh by performing a cross-field based decomposition in parameter space. The number and positions of extraordinary vertices required to represent the trimmed shape can be automatically identified by smoothing a cross field bounded by the parametric trimming curves. After the topology construction, the control point positions in the base mesh are calculated based on the limit stencils of the subdivision scheme and constraints to achieve tangential continuity across the boundary. Our method provides the user with either an editable base mesh or a fine mesh whose limit surface approximates the input within a certain tolerance. By integrating the trimming curve as part of the desired limit surface boundary, our conversion can produce gap-free models. Moreover, since we use tangential continuity across the boundary between adjacent surfaces as constraints, the converted surfaces join with G1 continuity. © 2014 The Authors. ; EPSRC, Chinese Government (PhD studentship) and Cambridge Trusts
