Summary: This paper proposes an extended model of bilateral contract mechanism to better consider the interaction between entities and the power supply chain. By utilizing a Stackelberg game, the dynamic coordination and strategic interactions between power plants, power retailers, and consumers in electricity trading are studied under demand uncertainty. An improved coordination model is applied to power trading data from Guangdong, China, and simulations confirm its effectiveness in improving stability and minimizing fines.

Summary: One important use of evolutionary game theory is to study social dilemmas and understand why people cooperate. This study investigates the effect of asymmetry in coordination games and finds that humans prefer to contribute the same proportion of their endowment. Experimental results show the non-trivial effects of inequality on cooperation, and discuss the extent to which evolutionary game theory models can account for these effects.

Summary: The pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a radical transformation towards personalized medicine, which requires product pairing between drugs and diagnostic tests. Dependencies between pharmaceutical and diagnostic firms can lead to development inefficiencies, and revenue-sharing and cost-sharing contracts are used to address these issues. Simple contracts can often solve problems related to postponed or reduced investment, and there are preferences for revenue sharing over cost sharing in certain settings.

Summary: This paper discusses the role of salience reasoning in coordination problems, arguing that higher-order behavioral predictions can weaken salience-based behavioral predictions. The author also critiques the popular Lewisian model in this context. Lastly, it is proposed that a player can only employ salience reasoning when suspending judgment about what others believe yet others will do.

Summary: Generalized Nash equilibrium problems involve single-shot Nash equilibrium problems where decisions of all agents are coupled through a shared constraint. Various reformulations of equilibrium problems have been proposed in the literature, but they only describe a limited part of the equilibrium set. A solution concept based on normalized Nash equilibrium is introduced to address this limitation, with a parametrized decomposition algorithm inspired by the Inexact-ADMM algorithm to span more equilibrium points.

Summary: This paper proposes a three-echelon supply chain model with uncertain demands and formulates decentralized, centralized, and coordination models to maximize participants' profits. A bilevel adjustable contract based on wholesale price is proposed as an incentive for players to participate in the coordination plan using game theory. Results show that the coordination model outperforms others by reducing costs and increasing profits simultaneously.

Summary: This study focuses on a manufacturer-retailer vertical supply chain model, analyzing three dynamic market scenarios with different market leadership roles, and determining the impact of pricing and greening investment decisions in each scenario. The research finds that a lack of market leader may lead to higher consumer surplus and increased willingness of the manufacturer to invest in greening; with a market leader, the retailer may be more inclined to share a higher proportion of greening costs.

Summary: This article explores the impact of surface hardening techniques on the mechanical and tribological properties of modified AISI H13 hot-work die steel at elevated temperature. The study finds that the combination of nitriding methods and austenitizing and tempering temperature greatly influences the material properties. Low nitriding temperature leads to corrosion issues and affects hardness. It is recommended to perform austenitizing prior to plasma nitriding to enhance the steel's resistance to thermal fatigue cracking and sliding wear.

Summary: With the rapid development of technology, there is an increasing number of Narrow Band IoT devices being manufactured. However, the high interference and signal attenuation in edge NB-IoT devices make it challenging to ensure their service quality. In order to maximize the data rate fairness of these devices, a multi-dimensional indoor localization model is proposed, which considers transmission power, data scheduling, and time slot scheduling based on a network model that uses non-orthogonal multiple access via a relay. The proposed approach has shown improvements in energy efficiency, data rate proportional fairness, and spectrum efficiency through simulation.
