Improving urban ecological efficiency is an integral part of protection and high-quality development the Yellow River Basin. We used super-efficiency slacks-based model with unexpected output to measure 62 prefecture-level cities in Basin from 2005 2018. Its spatial distribution characteristics convergence are discussed. The influencing factors spillovers assessed through Dubin model. results s...

Eco-efficiency is a key indicator to measure the level of regional sustainable development. The county basic spatial unit socio-economic activities and policy implementation in China. Hence, this paper conducts eco-efficiency analysis at scale order provide reference for central local governments formulate differentiated enhancement policies, further promote Chinese ecological development, adva...

Nowadays, the embedded systems are undergoing an unprecedented trend towards integrating components or tasks of different criticality levels onto a common computing platform, as the task integration can reduce the “SWaP” (Size, Weight, and Power) related costs. Those systems, commonly referred to mixed-criticality systems, consist of functionalities with two or more distinct criticality levels,...

Clustered architecture processors are preferred for embedded systems because centralized register file architectures scale poorly in terms of clock rate, chip area, and power consumption. Although clustering helps by improving clock speed, reducing energy consumption of the logic, and making design simpler, it introduces extra overheads by way of inter-cluster communication. This communication ...

• Germination and symbiotic development of the myco-heterotrophic plant Monotropa hypopitys were studied by sequential recovery of packets of seed buried in dune slacks in relation to distance from mature M. hypopitys and presence and absence of shoots of its autotrophic coassociate Salix repens . • Fungal associates of M. hypopitys growing under S. repens in the dune slacks, and under S. capre...

To address the gap in energy performance studies regarding role of information entropy feedback processes between input and output slacks, paper develops a novel Stochastic-Entropic Analysis for Ideal Solutions (SEA-IS) model. The non-linear stochastic optimization model is then applied to assess potential gains that may arise from slacks minimization given different optimal reduction quantiles...

In this paper, a new three-stage virtual frontier SBM-DEA (Slacks-Based Measure of Efficiency in Data Envelopment Analysis) model is proposed to evaluate the sustainable efficiency construction industry. The relevant industry data 30 Chinese PARs (provincial administrative regions) from 2011 2016 are brought into calculate each region and verify rationality model. order solve problem that value...

Vehicle industry has made great contribution to human progress. However, in the process of vehicle operation, a large number carbon compounds are emitted, which brings serious environmental problems. As one important means emission governance, development new energy vehicles (NEVs) attracted much attention. The behavior and performance NEV enterprises highly concerned. Using Chinese 23 enterpri...

The coupling coordination between industrial water use (IWU) and green development (IGD) systems is crucial for achieving sustainable goals. This paper measures the degree IWU IGD systems, spatial–temporal evolution characteristics of are discussed. Here, system assessed by adopting a dynamic slacks-based measure model, system’s performance evaluated using an entropy-weighted TOPSIS model. resu...
