China inside out: Explaining silver flows in the triangular trade, c. 1820s‒70s
Abstract This paper analyses a new large dataset of silver prices, as well as silver and merchandise trade flows in and out of China in the crucial decades of the mid‐nineteenth century when the Empire was opened to world trade. Silver flows were associated with the interaction between heterogeneous monetary preferences and availability of specific ...

The circulation and distribution of classical Greek coinage
Abstract From a sample of the most prominent Greek city‐states, data involving a total of 999 hoards and 160,007 coins from 550 to 300 BC were collected to discern the relative magnitudes, consistency of issue, and distribution of Classical Greek coinages.

Between famine and freedom: Food prices during the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945–9
Abstract This paper investigates how the Indonesian War of Independence (1945‒9) influenced staple food prices, and how fluctuations in those prices, in turn, shaped the trajectory and dynamics of the conflict. We compiled a dataset comprising more than 8600 prices for staple foods covering the entire Indonesian archipelago from 1939‒49, allowing us to

Miss-Triggered Content Cache Replacement Under Partial Observability: Transformer-Decoder Q-Learning
Content delivery networks (CDNs) face steadily rising, uneven demand, straining heuristic cache replacement. Reinforcement learning (RL) is promising, but most work assumes a fully observable Markov Decision Process (MDP), unrealistic under delayed ...

Flow-Length Aware Cache Replacement Policy for Packet Processing Cache
Recent core routers are required to process packets not only at high throughput but also with low power consumption due to the increase in the network traffic amount. Packet processing cache (PPC) is one of the effective approaches to meet the requirements. PPC enables to process a packet without accessing to a ternary content addressable memory (TCAM)

Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...
