Airbnb, or the (globalized) geopolitics of a contested tourist accommodation offer. From magnified disruption to generalized conflictualities... by Victor Piganiol

“…A geopolitical approach makes it possible to analyse Airbnb from a purely conflictual perspective by mobilizing the tools, concepts and reasoning invented by and for this field of geography, and to shed light on some of the forces that make the platform a “city disrupter”, particularly at the local and even micro-local levels, that of the space of the residence itself and its immediate environment.…”

Game theory based forwarding control method for social network by Fangfang SHAN, Hui LI, Hui ZHU

“…With the rapid development of mobile communication and internet technology,the social network has become one of the mainstream social means used in people’s daily social life.To maintain and strengthen relationships with friends,users may share personal behavior and feelings through social networks.Forwarding these contents may result in privacy leakage.To help publishers make proper data forwarding decision,the benefits of both sides of the forwarding operation were analyzed,and a game theory based forwarding control method for social network was proposed which could effectively prevent dishonest data forwarding operation.By analyzing the benefits of both sides of forwarding operation and considering historical information,the probability of dishonest data forwarding operation was calculated and it was compared with the threshold set by publisher to make the forwarding decision.The procedure and framework of the game theory based forwarding control method was introduced.The benefits of both sides were defined and analyzed.The game play scenario was presented.Some results of experiments are shown to support that the method is effective and it can protect the security of content in social network.…”

Fighting against COVID-19 requires wearing a face mask by not some but all by Hakan Yilmazkuday

“…The formal analysis is achieved by using a difference-in-difference design, where U.S. county-level data on changes in COVID-19 cases or deaths are regressed on lagged changes in social interaction of people measured by Google mobility. The main contribution is achieved by distinguishing between the effects of social interaction on COVID-19 in different U.S. counties based on the corresponding share of people wearing a face mask determined by Dynata surveys. …”

Dual time scale resource allocation for RAN slicing in software-defined oriented polymorphic IoV by Weijing QI, Qingyang SONG, Lei GUO

“…To effectively meet the differentiated quality of service (QoS) requirements of various vehicular applications, a dual time scale resource allocation algorithm for radio access network (RAN) slicing in software-defined polymorphic Internet of vehicles (IoV) was proposed.Considering the constraints of the minimum rate requirement of enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) slice users, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) link reliability, the maximum power of nodes, the maximum number of RBs, a joint optimization problem of caching, spectrum, power allocation was formulated, with the aim of minimizing the average delay of ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) slice users.By using the Hungarian algorithm, linear integer programming method and the double deep Q-Learning network (DDQN) algorithm, the original NP-hard problem was solved in dual time scales.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the traditional algorithm in ensuring the QoS requirements of different slice users and improving the spectrum utilization.…”

Reconfigurable intelligent surface assisted resource optimization method for heterogeneous network by Xianhao SHEN, Ziling ZENG, Shaohua NIU

“…For reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted heterogeneous network slicing, a resource optimization method with joint resource allocation and phase shift optimization was proposed.A joint optimization problem with different objectives was constructed for different services in heterogeneous networks.For enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) services, the resource block allocation, power allocation and RIS phase shift matrix were jointly optimized based on the alternating optimization algorithm to maximize the total traversal capacity of eMBB users.For ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) services, a pre-configured RIS-based heuristic URLLC allocation algorithm was proposed with the objectives of maximizing the URLLC packet reception rate and minimizing the amount of eMBB rate loss.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves about 99.99% URLLC packet reception rate using only 80 RISs compared to 95.95% URLLC packet reception rate when no RISs are deployed, while the total eMBB rate is increased by 86.24%.…”

Optimization strategies in NOMA-based vehicle edge computing network by Jianbo DU, Nana XUE, Yan SUN, Jing JIANG, Shulei LI, Guangyue LU

“…Nowadays, vehicular network is confronting the challenges to support ubiquitous connections and vast computation-intensive and delay-sensitive smart service for numerous vehicles.To address these issues, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and mobile edge computing (MEC) are considered as two promising technologies by letting multiple vehicles to share the same wireless resources, and the powerful edge computing resources were adopted at the edge of vehicular wireless access network respectively.A NOMA-based vehicular edge computing network was studied.Under the condition of guaranteeing task processing delay, the joint optimization problem of task offloading, user clustering, computing resource allocation and transmission power control was proposed to minimize the task processing cost.Since the proposed problem was difficult to solve, it was divided into sub-problems, and a low-complexity and easy-to-implement method was proposed to solve it.The simulation results show that compared with other benchmark algorithms, the proposed algorithm performs well in minimizing costs.…”
