A neckable nonwoven web is provided with a central region and two edge regions, the central region being selectively easier to neck than the two edge regions. The nonwoven fibers in the central region have a polymer composition and/or physical properties which differ from the nonwoven fibers in the two edge regions. The selectively easier necking in the central region causes the central region to neck to about the same extent as the two edge regions, which otherwise would experience greater necking than the central region if the starting nonwoven web were completely uniform. Necked nonwoven webs and neck-bonded laminates made using the improved neckable nonwoven web, are also provided.

The invention brings forward a method based on a wireless network interface selection to improve a smart phone user experience. According to the invention, in view of the vehicle-mounted mobile situation, an optical user experience is obtained by dynamically distributing a wireless network interface to an application node with data independence. Two solutions are brought forward in the invention. One solution is as follows: enumerating all probability execution events of an application node by carrying out a depth-first search on a solution space; carrying out pruning based on constraints; and selecting a wireless network interface for each node to obtain an optical user experience; the other solution is as follows: decomposing a problem into a problem of a smaller subgraph by a dynamic programming; distributing and determining a probability event for each node having a plurality of father nodes to avoid a conflict in selecting a wireless network interface; deleting a suboptimal solution and an infeasible solution by using a redundant node concept to obtain an optical user experience and a selection of a wireless network interface of each node. According to the invention, a good user experience can be obtained; moreover, the user can set an experience parameter by himself/herself, so that more freedom and selection space are provided for the user.
