文摘The growing demand for low delay vehicular content has put tremendous strain on the backbone network.As a promising alternative,cooperative content caching among different cache nodes can reduce content access delay.However,heterogeneous cache nodes have different communication modes and limited caching capacities.In addition,the high mobility of vehicles renders the more complicated caching environment.Therefore,performing efficient cooperative caching becomes a key issue.In this paper,we propose a cross-tier cooperative caching architecture for all contents,which allows the distributed cache nodes to cooperate.Then,we devise the communication link and content caching model to facilitate timely content delivery.Aiming at minimizing transmission delay and cache cost,an optimization problem is formulated.Furthermore,we use a multi-agent deep reinforcement learning(MADRL)approach to model the decision-making process for caching among heterogeneous cache nodes,where each agent interacts with the environment collectively,receives observations yet a common reward,and learns its own optimal policy.Extensive simulations validate that the MADRL approach can enhance hit ratio while reducing transmission delay and cache cost.

文摘Several long-term studies have provided strong support demonstrating that growing crops under elevated[CO_(2)]can increase photosynthesis and result in an increase in yield,flavour and nutritional content(including but not limited to Vitamins C,E and pro-vitamin A).In the case of tomato,increases in yield by as much as 80%are observed when plants are cultivated at 1000 ppm[CO_(2)],which is consistent with current commercial greenhouse productionmethods in the tomato fruit industry.These results provide a clear demonstration of the potential for elevating[CO_(2)]for improving yield and quality in greenhouse crops.The major focus of this review is to bring together 50 years of observations evaluating the impact of elevated[CO_(2)]on fruit yield and fruit nutritional quality.In the final section,we consider the need to engineer improvements to photosynthesis and nitrogen assimilation to allow plants to take greater advantage of elevated CO_(2) growth conditions.
