In this paper, we propose a new routing strategy on the basis of the so-called next-nearest-neighbor search strategy by introducing a preferential delivering exponent α. It is found that by tuning the parameter α, the scale-free network capacity measured by the order parameter is considerably...

Due to the advantages of the flexibility and economics in exploration and production of offshore liquefied natural gas (LNG), the floating production storage and offloading unit for liquefied natural gas (LNG-FPSO) has attracted wide attentions in recent years. The offloading system for LNG...

E-commerce development and applications have been bringing the Internet to business and marketing and reforming our current business styles and processes. The rapid development of the Web, in particular, the introduction of the semantic web and web service technologies, enables business...

The carbon emission embodied in trade is fundamental for allocation of responsibility between producers and consumers. This paper quantitatively analyzes embodied carbon emissions along the life cycle of electricity supply, based on network theory. A modified carbon emission flow model is...

The cumulative distribution of trading volume is investigated for Chinese stocks. Different from the power-law scaling of mature markets, the distribution is well fitted by a stretched exponential function f(x)∼e−αxγ. With the autocorrelation function and the detrended fluctuation...

We investigate the probability distribution of the volatility return intervals τ for the Chinese stock market. We rescale both the probability distribution Pq(τ) and the volatility return intervals τ as Pq(τ)=1/τ¯f(τ/τ¯) to obtain a uniform scaling curve for different threshold value q....
