Optimal scheduling of data centers based on multiple games

With the increasing dominance of electricity retailers in the electricity market, it has become a new trend for the data center (DC) to participate in sales-side transactions. However, data center electricity retailers (DCERs) and DCs that purchase electricity by DCERs, as different stakeholders, will inevitably face conflicts of interest. To promote the benefit distribution of DCs and DCERs to achieve a win–win situation, our study proposes an optimal scheduling method based on multiple games and establishes a mixed game model by integrating the master–slave game method and the cooperative game method, in which DCERs take profit maximization as the optimization goal, while Internet DCs take the lowest total cost as the optimization goal. The master–slave game is adopted between the DCER and the DC, and the cooperative game is adopted among the members of the DC. The benefits are distributed through Nash bargaining. The model is solved by using the particle swarm optimization algorithm combined with the alternating direction method of multipliers. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method, we provide an illustrative example that showcases its ability to not only increase DCER revenue by 136.04% but also decrease total DC costs by 9.39%. As a result, our method facilitates a more equitable distribution of cooperation revenues.

Managing the plot structure of character-based interactive narratives in games

The use of narrative generation methods in games is a complex challenge that involves multiple problems of plot-based processes integrated with character-based methods. Examples of these problems are the high computational complexity of many story generation algorithms, the difficulties associated with the generation of interactive narratives that are compelling and emotionally impactful, the complex interactions among characters, and the need for tools and methods to support story writers in the process of creating and managing the narrative structure of interactive stories. In this work, we present and evaluate a new approach to generate and manage the plot structure of character-based interactive narratives in games, which combines multi-agent planning with a drama management strategy based on narrative structures. The proposed method is supported by an authoring tool that allows authors to create and test interactive narratives using graphical interfaces and intuitive diagrams. The results of our study suggest the effectiveness of our approach in generating interactive narratives for highly interactive game environments. In addition, a user study of the proposed authoring tool indicates that it can successfully support the development of character-based interactive narratives without requiring programming knowledge.

An Evolutionary Game Theory-Based Method to Mitigate Block Withholding Attack in Blockchain System

Consensus algorithms are the essential components of blockchain systems. They guarantee the blockchain’s fault tolerance and security. The Proof of Work (PoW) consensus algorithm is one of the most widely used consensus algorithms in blockchain systems, using computational puzzles to enable mining pools to compete for block rewards. However, this excessive competition for computational power will bring security threats to blockchain systems. A block withholding (BWH) attack is one of the most critical security threats blockchain systems face. A BWH attack obtains the reward of illegal block extraction by replacing full proof with partial mining proof. However, the current research on the BWH game could be more extensive, considering the problem from the perspective of a static game, and it needs an optimal strategy that dynamically reflects the mining pool for multiple games. Therefore, to solve the above problems, this paper uses the method of the evolutionary game to design a time-varying dynamic game model through the degree of system supervision and punishment. Based on establishing the game model, we use the method of replicating dynamic equations to analyze and find the optimal strategy for mining pool profits under different BWH attacks. The experimental results demonstrate that the mining pools will choose honest mining for the best profit over time under severe punishment and high supervision. On the contrary, if the blockchain system is supervised with a low penalty, the mining pools will eventually choose to launch BWH attacks against each other to obtain the optimal mining reward. These experimental results also prove the validity and correctness of our model and solution.
