LI Guang-biao, XU Shi-min The determination of the number of unknown source signals when there are fewer sources than the mixtures in blind source separation (BSS) has always been an unsolved problem. Based on the application of BSS in array signal processing, a method of estimation signals number was proposed. Due to fourth-order cumulants, the method can improve the estimation performance. The detailed solution to the problem of number estimation was explained, and Monter-Carlo trials demonstrated that the performance of this method was better than the usual algorithms. The validity of the method in BSS is proved through experiments. Thus the method can solve the problem of estimation of signal number in BSS, it paves the way to wider application of BSS methods.  
Numerical Simulation of Response of Elevator and Occupants in Accident SHEN Jie, JIN Xian-long, PANG Feng The idea of elevator accident reconstruction and its modeling method were put forward.

Research on Trading Model of Electronic Broker in Second-hand Apartment Market ZHANG Zhen-hua, WANG Ding-wei The application problem of electronic broker in the second-hand apartment market of china was researched, and a trading model was proposed. The characteristic of this model is as follows: intelligent-agent searching, and returning a seller list ranked in descending order of preferential level; assigning every agent a KANBAN which indicates this agent’s state, so as to avoid confusion; based on the information feedback, description precision being highly improved; the one-to-one negotiation in a cycle improving efficiency and avoiding disorder; maximizing broker’s income and successful recommending ratio. When the two parties being matched, a multi-objective assignment model was constructed, whose objectives were to maximize the total satisfaction degree and the sum of the trading prices, and settle it by adding the efficiency matrices fuzzily, so that it was changed into a single-objective model. A computation example was given.

Comparison of Petri Net Based and UML Activity Diagram Based Workflow Modeling

WANG Wen-yuan, SHA Ji-chang, TAN Dong-feng Petri Net and UML Activity Diagram have both been play very import roles. But there are no researches on whether they are adaptable. It’s concluded that WFMS is reactive, coordinate and open when WFMS is analyzed. Since UML activity diagram has no proper semantics for workflow modeling, it has been proposed based on statechart. It was compared that how to use Petri Net and UML activity diagram to model workflow. Then the conclusions are drawn that Petri Net is fit for the modeling of closed and active system; UML Diagram is more fit for the modeling of open and reactive system; Petri Net is fit for the modeling of scare resources. Based on above, the conclusion is that UML Diagram is more fit for workflow modeling.
