Mean-field games (MFGs) are developed to model the decision-making processes of a large number of interacting agents in multi-agent systems. This paper studies mean-field games on graphs (𝒢-MFGs). The equilibria of 𝒢-MFGs, namely, mean-field equilibria (MFE), are challenging to solve for...

Joining a technical standards alliance is becoming increasingly crucial for latecomer enterprises' innovation catch-up in today's fast-paced technological environment. This study investigates the influence of latecomers' ambidextrous innovation on technical standards alliances while highlighting...

How to keep water and land stress within planetary boundaries is a major challenge for sustainable development in Latin American countries. Using an environmentally extended global multi-regional input-output analysis (GMRIO) approach, this study simulates future land and water demand for...

Purpose - The authors derive the necessary mathematics, provide computer simulations, provide links to free and user-friendly computer programs, and analyze real data sets. Design/methodology/approach - Cohen’s d, which indexes the difference in means in standard deviation units, is the most...

Blockchain is considered by many to be a disruptive core technology. Although many researchers have realized the importance of blockchain, the research of blockchain is still in its infancy. Consequently, this study reviews the current academic research on blockchain, especially in the subject...

Utility and users are two important subjects in power dispatching, and each participant wants to maximize its benefits. That is to say, utility and users are engaged in an interest game with each other. In this paper, a day-ahead economic dispatch strategy which can solve mixed integer...

Purpose - The authors' conclusions are based on mathematical derivations that are supported by computer simulations and three worked examples in applications of economics and finance. Finally, the authors provide a link to a computer program so that researchers can perform the analyses easily....

The global policy debate on just transitions is concerned with how to achieve a socially just and acceptable transition toward a climate-neutral and climate-resilient global economy. At the core of this debate is the assumption that efforts to combat environmental threats will not succeed unless...

Autonomous driving (AV) technology has elicited discussion on social dilemmas where trade-offs between individual preferences, social norms, and collective interests may impact road safety and efficiency. In this study, we aim to identify whether social dilemmas exist in AVs' sequential decision...
