Enhanced Organic Solar Cells Efficiency through Additive Electronic and Electro-optic Effects Resulting from Doping a Polymer Hole Transport Layer

C. T. Howells, K. Marbou, H. Kim +20

We demonstrate that blending fluorinated molecules in PEDOT:PSS hole transport layers (HTL) induces charge transfers which impact on both charge extraction and photogeneration with…

Cost Minimizing Online Algorithms for Energy Storage Management with Worst-case Guarantee

Chi-Kin Chau, Guanglin Zhang, Minghua Chen

The fluctuations of electricity prices in demand response schemes and intermittency of renewable energy supplies necessitate the adoption of energy storage in microgrids. However,…

Quantifying Inefficiency of Fair Cost-Sharing Mechanisms for Sharing Economy

Chi-Kin Chau, Khaled Elbassioni

Sharing economy is a distributed peer-to-peer economic paradigm, which gives rise to a variety of social interactions for economic purposes. One fundamental distributed decision-ma…

A Potential Reduction Algorithm for Two-person Zero-sum Mean Payoff Stochastic Games

Endre Boros, Khaled Elbassioni, Vladimir Gurvich +1

We suggest a new algorithm for two-person zero-sum undiscounted stochastic games focusing on stationary strategies. Given a positive real , let us call a stochastic game -erg…

A Pseudo-Polynomial Algorithm for Mean Payoff Stochastic Games with Perfect Information and Few Random Positions

Endre Boros, Khaled Elbassioni, Vladimir Gurvich +1

We consider two-person zero-sum stochastic mean payoff games with perfect information, or BWR-games, given by a digraph , with local rewards $r: E \to \ZZ$, and three t…

Beyond Contagion: Reality Mining Reveals Complex Patterns of Social Influence

Aamena Alshamsi, Fabio Pianesi, Bruno Lepri +2

Contagion, a concept from epidemiology, has long been used to characterize social influence on people's behavior and affective (emotional) states. While it has revealed many useful…

Economic Viability of Paris Metro Pricing for Digital Services

Chi-Kin Chau, Qian Wang, Dah-Ming Chiu

Nowadays digital services, such as cloud computing and network access services, allow dynamic resource allocation and virtual resource isolation. This trend can create a new paradi…

Belief and Truth in Hypothesised Behaviours

Stefano V. Albrecht, Jacob W. Crandall, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

There is a long history in game theory on the topic of Bayesian or "rational" learning, in which each player maintains beliefs over a set of alternative behaviours, or types, for t…

Truthful Mechanisms for Combinatorial Allocation of Electric Power in Alternating Current Electric Systems for Smart Grid

Chi-Kin Chau, Khaled Elbassioni, Majid Khonji

Traditional studies of combinatorial auctions often only consider linear constraints. The rise of smart grid presents a new class of auctions, characterized by quadratic constraint…

Sun-tracking optical element realized using thermally activated transparency-switching material

Harry Apostoleris, Marco Stefancich, Samuele Lilliu +1

We present a proof of concept demonstration of a novel optical element: a light-responsive aperture that can track a moving light beam. The element is created using a thermally-act…
