Weighted Component Fairness for Forest Games [PDF]
We present the axiom of weighted component fairness for the class of forest games, a generalization of component fairness introduced by Herings, Talman and van der Laan (2008) in order to characterize the average tree solution. Given a system of weights,

Implantable Self‐Powered Systems for Electrical Stimulation Medical Devices
In this paper, the design strategy and clinical application of ISS are discussed in depth from four aspects: the design and optimization of the energy collection module, the selection and preparation of adaptive electrode materials, the innovation of system design strategy, and the biological effect of electrical stimulation of ISS.

Low communication protocols for fair allocation of indivisible goods [PDF]
We study the multi-party randomized communication complexity of computing a fair allocation of $m$ indivisible goods to $n < m$ equally entitled agents. We first consider MMS allocations, allocations that give every agent at least her maximin share. Such allocations are guaranteed to exist for simple classes of valuation functions.

Optimal Power Allocation for Energy Harvesting and Power Grid Coexisting Wireless Communication Systems [PDF]
This paper considers the power allocation of a single-link wireless communication with joint energy harvesting and grid power supply. We formulate the problem as minimizing the grid power consumption with random energy and data arrival, and analyze the structure of the optimal power allocation policy in some special cases.

CSF dynamics are vital for neurological health. Yet accurate quantification of CSF rates is challenging. Using a novel technique in awake, freely moving rats, significantly higher secretion rates are found than in anesthetized rats. The findings highlight the importance of awake models and the adaptability of methods for studying CSF changes influenced

Mechanism Design with Interdependent Valuations: Surplus Extraction [PDF]
If valuations are interdependent and agents observe their own allocation payoffs, then two-stage revelation mechanisms expand the set of implementable decision functions. In a two-stage revelation mechanism agents report twice.

Low‐Irradiance Antimicrobial Blue Light‐Bathing Therapy for Wound Infection Control
Antimicrobial blue light has been shown as an appealing non‐pharmacological antimicrobial alternative. However, its clinical applications have been hindered by high irradiance‐associated photothermal risks. In this work, a low‐irradiance blue light‐bathing concept and a wearable photonic wound patch are established to address this challenge in terms of
