An Optimal Edge Data Caching Scheme Based on Improved Particle Swarm Optimization

Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 13, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) alleviates the performance bottlenecks of traditional cloud computing in latency‐sensitive scenarios by moving computational resources to network edge nodes. In recent years, numerous research efforts have focused on developing edge data caching (EDC) strategies that enable app vendors to enhance caching performance

Operating Capacity, Pricing and Supply Elasticity in Container Shipping Markets

International Journal of Finance &Economics, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 3139-3162, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We investigate the channels through which changes in operating capacity influence freight rates in the container shipping market using a novel dataset to create an operating capacity index at the shipping‐route level. Our analysis reveals that when supply elasticity is low, an increase in operating capacity tends to drive freight rates upward,

Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Resource Allocation in NOMA-Enabled mmWave IAB Networks

IEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society
The rapid densification of next-generation wireless networks has underscored the need for scalable and cost-effective backhaul solutions. Integrated access and backhaul (IAB) networks have emerged as a promising paradigm by replacing costly optical fiber

Consistent Collaborative Vehicle Utilization

Networks, Volume 88, Issue 1, Page 99-121, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Carriers are often reluctant to collaborate with other carriers in delivering goods to customers despite potential cost reductions. A durable collaboration requires attention to more aspects. Carriers typically wish to remain competitive, unconstrained by the collaboration, increasing profits by attracting new customers and withholding ...

Integrated Access and Backhaul in 5G mmWave Networks: Potential and Challenges

IEEE Communications Magazine, 2020
Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) is being investigated as a means to overcome deployment costs of ultra-dense 5G millimeter wave (mmWave) networks by realizing wireless backhaul links to relay the access traffic. For the development of these systems, however, it is fundamental to validate the performance of IAB in realistic scenarios through end-to-

Rainfall Field Reconstruction From Commercial Microwave Links via a Conditional Diffusion Model

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract High‐resolution rainfall field reconstruction is a critical task in hydrological applications, with significant implications for flood forecasting, water resource management, and urban resilience. Conventional remote sensing instruments such as rain gauges and weather radars suffer from sparse coverage or high operational costs, while ...

Stepping Stones or Stumbling Blocks? Domestic Mergers and Cross‐Border Consolidation

Economic Notes, Volume 55, Issue 2, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We build on empirical evidence showing that international acquisitions exhibit path dependence and often unfold as sequences of deals, and argue that domestic and cross‐border mergers are not necessarily isolated events. Specifically, we ask whether blocking a domestic merger that reduces consumer surplus in the short run could inadvertently ...

Multispectral Shared‐Aperture Metasurface With RF Wide‐Angle and Polarization Stability for Tri‐Band Transmission and High‐Fidelity Imaging

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 12, 25 June 2026.
This study presents a multispectral compatible metasurface that achieves high transmission across three radio frequency bands, high optical transparency, and high fidelity imaging capabilities through a two‐dimensional spatial combination strategy of synergistic and minimalist low‐duty‐cycle units.
