Neither “Platformization” Nor “Infrastructuralization”: Government as a Platform in China by Jingyan Elaine Yuan, Yuchao Zhao

“…Through a case study of “the digital reform” in Zhejiang Province, and the affiliated smart city project—City Brain—in Hangzhou, the municipal capital, this study draws on data from participatory observations and interviews to (1) provide a historical context, in which “platformization” in urban governance is aimed to serve market-oriented socio-economic reforms; (2) argue that such “platformization” is shaped by the long-standing structural tension between centralization and localism, which has been renewed by digital data flows; and (3) understand the shifting public–private demarcation in social interactions and arrangements to deflect continual frictions between the state, local agents, and platforms in the domain of digital governance.…”

Modeling of chemo-radiotherapy targeting growing vascular tumors: A continuum-level approach. by Ioannis Lampropoulos, Marina Koutsi, Michail E Kavousanakis

“…Our model integrates the impact of chemical species on tumor dynamics, and we model -through reaction-diffusion equations- the spatio-temporal evolution of oxygen, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and chemotherapeutic agents. Simulations of a growing tumor exposed to external radiation showcase the rapid impact of radiotherapy on tumor suppression, however this effect diminishes over time. …”

Mesopore Development in Activated Carbon Fibres by Additional Chemical Activation by Song Lei, Junichi Miyamoto, Hirofumi Kanoh, Katsumi Kaneko

“…Mesoporous activated carbon fibres (ACFs) were prepared from pitch-based microporous carbon fibres by additional chemical activation using calcium nitrate [Ca(NO 3 ) 2 ] and disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na 2 HPO 4 ) as activation agents. The porosity change was examined by performing N 2 adsorption measurements at 77 K. …”

Privacy matching-based service proxy discovery scheme by Kui GENG, Sheng WAN, Feng-hua LI, Yuan-yuan HE, Han-yi WANG

“…According to user's requirements on the proxy performance,cost and safety in proxy discovery,and the pri-vacy-preserving issue during the process of the demand private matching,a new private matching algorithm was pre-sented based on Paillier homomorphic encryption,comprehensively considered the attributes of user and agents and their priority.It included four steps:building the similarity function based on Euclidean distance,carrying on the private matching by encryption algorithm,calculating the similarity and screening the proxy chain.Proposed scheme introduced semi trusted primary proxy from the global level,which is to manage all the sub proxy's business type and the connection status,and do the main computational overhead.At the same time,Euclidean distance and Paillier homomorphic encryp-tion algorithm were combined to support the multivariate attributes with priority to match,which can effectively protect the privacy of user and sub proxy.Finally,security analysis and evaluation results show the effectiveness and safety of proposed scheme.…”
