The strategic control of the purchase price for high-tech products and market competition is considered. For this purpose, a new bilateral oligopoly market model is proposed. The new model allows determining the purchase prices for high-tech products under the competition of suppliers with flexible production capacities. Parametric calculations of the purchase prices, the number of competing suppliers and their production capacities are performed depending on the unit price offered by the monopsonist customer. The purchase prices offered by the customers to guarantee the competitiveness of the market are determined. The customers’ optimal pricing policy that will reduce the purchasing costs and/or ensure the existence of competing suppliers in the long run is identified. A possible price reduction for high-tech products when applying this policy is calculated. The ranges of some characteristic market parameters (the capital-output ratio, the rates of order execution and order flow, and the number of potential order sources) for which this policy is efficient are determined.

Recently, single-image haze removal based on the dark channel prior (DCP), originally proposed by He et. al., has attracted much attention in the image restoration community. This dehazing algorithm, called the DCP scheme here, is well-known to have four main problems in its dehazed images: artifacts, hue distortion, color over-saturation, and halos. In this paper, an improved DCP (IDCP) is proposed to deal with the four aforementioned problems, by setting the model parameters, i.e. scaling factors and window size and smoothing factor of a guided image filter in the DCP scheme. Note that a dehazed image is generally dim and low in contrast. An adaptive gamma correction (AGC) is introduced for dehazed image enhancement. The proposed IDCP and AGC are used to create the IDCP/AGC scheme, in which the IDCP scheme performs haze removal and the AGC enhances the dehazed image. The IDCP/AGC scheme was justified through extensive experiments and compared with the DCP scheme, an optimization-based scheme, and two learning-based schemes on two datasets. The results indicated that the proposed scheme is subjectively and objectively superior to the comparison schemes.

The paper presents the model developed to identify efficient strategies of antitumor viral vaccine introduction. These strategies are able to produce complete suppression of the tumor growth. The model was developed in MatLab-Simulink. Three efficient strategies of viral vaccine introduction were produced. It was found that the choice of the strategy depends on the tumor size at the start of the treatment, and the range of the tumor sizes for each of the strategies was identified. For the small tumors, elimination of the tumor can be achieved through single-shot vaccine administration in dosages that lead to the death of tumor cells caused directly by the virus. For the big tumors that are within the threshold size, elimination of the tumor can be achieved through repeated vaccine administrations with stepwise reduction of time periods between them. For the tumors of any size, the strategy of repeated administration of the virus-based vaccine that allows stabilizing the tumor size as per the start of the treatment was defined.

The article presents a new approach to assessing the average response time of a cloud computing system and its dispersion. A fork-join system or a system with request splitting was chosen as a queuing model, and artificial neural networks were used as a method for estimating a variable of interest. The analysis showed that the estimates obtained were more accurate than those previously known. Besides, the proposed approach allows expanding the analysis of the cloud system to the case of a model with a non-Poisson input stream and non-exponential service time, as well as obtaining estimates for a larger number of performance indicators of the cloud system, which was not previously possible.

Almost 400 amorphous polymer materials used in membrane gas separation technology are clustered on the basis of the shape of their polymer chains conformations. Obtained clusters, which rely solely on the geometry of polymer chains and not on the chemical class (polyamides, polyacetylenes, etc.), are shown to discriminate polymers with respect to their transport properties, in particular, the coefficient of diffusion. The method proposed consists of several steps. Firstly, realistic conformations of large polymer macromolecules are constructed using the program code developed in the RDKit environment for Python. Then, polymer conformations are characterized by a curve that relates the “accessible surface area” (i.e., the contact surface between the spherical model of a macromolecule and a spherical “probe”) to the radius of this probe, and also seven similar curves, which relate the polarized (neutral, positively or negatively charged, etc.) accessible surface area to the radius of the spherical probe that represents the variety of penetrant gases. An improved algorithm for surface area calculation maps out the outer surface of the macromolecule to eliminate its influence. The curves are averaged between ten polymer conformations to obtain more robust figures. Finally, agglomerative clustering is used to separate different polymers in the space of these curves that align their accessible-surface-area-related quantities against the probe radius. The proposed classification of polymers can be used to develop more precise predictive models of polymers’ transport properties for the theory-guided and computer-aided materials design.

A hierarchical game of two persons with random factors is considered. It is assumed that the top-level player has the right of the first move. It is believed that the lower level player at the time of decision making knows exactly the realization of the random factor and the choice of partner. And the top-level player at the time of decision making knows only a probabilistic measure on the set of values of an uncertain factor. The principle of optimality is new: it is believed that a top-level player is ready to neglect some of the "unpleasant" events, the total probability of which is given, but otherwise he is careful. Under these assumptions, the maximum guaranteed result of the top-level player is calculated. The structure of strategies providing such a result is clarified. Two cases were investigated: a game with and without feedback. To solve the problem, an original definition of the maximum guaranteed result is proposed. It is equivalent to the classical definition, but is simpler. Using this technique, solving of the problem reduces to identical transformations of the formulas for predicate calculus. As a result of the solution, the optimal strategy and the set of "unpleasant" cases which are excluded from consideration search task is reduced to calculating multiple maximins on finite-dimensional spaces. In this case, the operation of calculating the expected value with respect to given probabilistic measure is considered to be "elementary". Models of this type can have different interpretations. One can use them for methodological justification of the principle of maximum guaranteed result. One can use them when solving risk management tasks. One can consider them as models for managing the "customer base" of the service company. The proposed method allows to study such models at a qualitative level, and in some cases to obtain quantitative results.

The present globalizing world of business has been witnessing the emergence of unprecedented kinds of markets. These new kinds of markets post significant challenges to the world of learning and decision-making managers, entrepreneurs and alike. To confront these challenges, this paper investigates the potentials of value creation and value capture at the firm level from different perspectives. By employing systems methodology and the logical reasoning that parallels the one commonly used in mathematics and natural science, this paper establishes 16 formal propositions on value creation and value capture from the respective perspectives of market competition, innovation, resource, inter-organizational network, and direct association of sellers and buyers. In particular, this work points out (1) when innovation provides additional potentials for value creation; (2) when resources’ latent values can be practically made visible through value creation; (3) how markets’ mutual forbearance and relatively sustainably increased profitability are positively related, (4) why a firm’s systemic hole position offers advantages and profitability to the firm, (5) how a firm’s profitability is positively affected by its membership in a strategic block of increasing market influence; and (6) when a firm creates and maintains convenient platforms it will readily create and capture values. This paper concludes with some practically reliable general recommendations and a few topics and directions for future research.

In this study, a delay differential equation model of gene expression for both retroviruses and normal cell is proposed to study the dynamics of functional gene products. The model is categorised into two sub-models to understand the characteristics of a cell by incorporating time delays in the processes of gene expression. The first model which is for retroviruses, involves time delay in replication, transcription, reverse transcription and translation processes taking place in the cell, while in the second model which is for normal cell, the time delay in transcription and translation processes are incorporated. A numerical solution is obtained using semi-temporal data set. The impact of time delays on temporal concentration profile of DNA, mRNA and proteins have been analysed which gives better insight into the normal cell as well as retroviruses. Further, sensitivity analysis has been performed for both models to study the behaviour of gene expression in the cell. The results obtained from such models can be useful for biomedical applications.

The paper substantiates the significance of the problem of developing new branches of regional specialization. The mechanisms of transformation of regional specializations are investigated. The productive role of the concept of "smart specialization" for socio-economic and industrial development is noted. The empirical base of the study was Russia’s statistics for 2010-2018. The method of correlation and regression analysis identifies the influence of the way of using digital technologies on the development of traditional industries. The factors affecting the functioning of the industrial sector of Russia were identified. The current requirements and approaches to identifying the priorities of specialization of a region are given. As a result of the study, it was concluded that in order to transform traditional specialization industries and increase their competitiveness in modern conditions, their active interaction (integration and associated participation in production chains) with high-tech fast-growing industries is paramount. As expected, the introduction of new digital technologies will contribute to the growth of traditional industries, which will lead to an increase in their economic sustainability.
