Romance in the Recent Past: Our Beloved Summer and First Love in the Ecology of Netflix Global Programming by Vivien Nara

“…Drawing on key scholarly literature on popular romance and modernity, I argue that while the temporality of “romance in the recent past” might not necessarily be marked as a working microgenre in the Netflix algorithm, it certainly presents as a transnationally translatable storytelling mode that narrativizes, entertains, and consoles audiences coming from similar experiences of modernity.…”

On Joint Sub-channel Allocation, Duplexing Mode Selection, and Power Control in Full-Duplex Co-Channel Femtocell Networks by M. Rasti, Sh. Kazemi Taskou

“…Moreover, we address the power control problem for macro-tier where the main goal is to minimize the transmission power of prioritized MUs while guaranteeing a target rate for them. To jointly address these problems for both tiers, we propose a distributed algorithm in which FBSs and admitted FUs choose whether to operate in half-duplex (HD) or FD mode so as to meet their target rate. …”
