We study the relative merits of different dispute resolution mechanisms in two-sided platforms in the context of disputes involving malicious reviews and blackmail. We develop a game-theoretic mode…
Crowdfunding platforms are characterized by an uneven distribution of quality and resources. Some projects achieve outstanding and exceptional performance. Those projects, which we call “blockbus…
In this paper, we consider an inverse interaction scattering problem of recovering an interface between the fluid and piezoelectric solid from acoustic measurements. First, the well-posedness of th…
Problem definition: We study an optimal contract design problem for a national brand (NB) manufacturer, which sells her product via a retailer. The retailer may introduce his store brand (SB) with …
This article presents a novel scheme based on underwater optical wireless communication and positioning (UOWC-UOWP) for an underwater wireless sensor network (UWSN). A dual-hop system is adopted to…
In the present paper, we demonstrate the first outdoor free-space optical communication (FSOC) system with real-time video transmission in a 2-μm-band with a state-of-the-art data rate performance…
The spectrally-sliced coherent receiver is an attractive solution for future optical access network applications where cost is a sensitive factor, as it enables reduced bandwidth of the analog fron…
A novel low-complexity combined resampling, retiming and equalizing (RRE) algorithm is proposed. The RRE algorithm uses a single FIR filter for resampling, retiming and equalizing and thus lower th…
This paper proposes a distributed stress analysis method for fiber winding structures. Compared with the traditional single-layer method, we quantitatively calculated each turn's stress in the fibe…
