Photosynthesis is the fundamental biochemical process driving Earth's biogeochemical cycles. The traditional theory holds that water is the sole source of photosynthetic oxygen and atmospheric CO$_2$ the only inorganic carbon substrate. However, electrophysiological, isotopic, and physiological evid...

The concept of Return on Security Investment (RoSI) has evolved from a mere financial indicator into a comprehensive system for informed decision-making. Software-intensive organisations face mounting pressure to justify security expenditure in financially rigorous terms. Existing Return-on-Security...

South Korea's ascent as a video game titan is not a simple narrative of state-led industrial success. This paper analyzes the dualistic nature of the Korean government's game policy, from the post-financial crisis ``informatization'' drive and the foundational Game Industry Promotion Act, to restric...

The proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has driven the emergence of Flying Ad-hoc Networks (FANETs) as distributed cyber-physical computing systems for surveillance, disaster management, precision agriculture, and logistics. Optimizing computational and communication resource utilizat...

Accurate modeling of flame-wall interaction is essential for predicting premixed hydrogen combustion in confined configurations relevant to hydrogen-based energy systems. Detailed chemical mechanisms often produce unphysical near-wall heat release due to persistent radical-consuming reactions at low...

Camouflaged object detection (COD) remains a significant challenge in computer vision. Existing approaches struggle to address both body immersion and structural ambiguity simultaneously, leading to inaccurate boundary delineations. This paper presents a novel Visual Sensing framework via Multiscale...

In recent years, while the rapid development of global electric vehicles (EVs) has been driving energy transition, their large-scale integration into power grids has posed significant challenges to the stability of power systems and the reliability of electricity supply. Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) techno...

A class of multi-age group $SEQ_3IHR$ chickenpox epidemic models with effective vaccination in a different subpopulation size, is considered, in this paper. It is assumed that individual members of the subpopulations who recovered from the disease, may be re-infected by the disease. The models compr...

In the evolutionary game, the introduction of the third or more specific strategies to study cooperative evolution has attracted widespread attention recently. The main feature of this paper is to adopt a special reward strategy as the third choice to observe the evolution dynamics. This strategy ca...
