Authors: Liu Haijing
Published: December 2024

This study examines how language is employed in cross-cultural negotiations, with a particular focus on a comparative analysis between implicit and explicit communication approaches. Using negotiation practices between China and the United States (US) as a representative case, this study investigates the differing language styles observed at the negotiation table. The findings reveal that Chinese culture tends to favor a euphemistic and indirect communication strategy to preserve social harmony and interpersonal rapport. In contrast, US culture is inclined toward direct and unreserved expressions, prioritizing accuracy and efficiency in information exchange. These culturally ingrained differences in language practices are often sources of misunderstanding and can present communication barriers in cross-cultural negotiation contexts. However, the findings also reveal that negotiating parties can effectively mitigate such conflicts by fostering mutual understanding and respect for one another’s cultural backgrounds and communicative approaches and adopting adaptive communication strategies, resulting in more successful and smoother negotiations. This research also provides practical recommendations to help negotiators adapt their communication strategies when facing cultural differences.

Authors: Sun Yu
Published: December 2024

This article introduces the background of federated learning, highlighting its emergence due to the challenges posed by data distribution and privacy requirements, which limit traditional methods. However, federated learning also faces issues such as bandwidth constraints and communication power consumption, with existing optimization algorithms having their own shortcomings. The main focus of this paper is to study federated learning-related algorithms and optimize federated recommendation algorithms to address data privacy and communication overhead issues. Two reference algorithms are highlighted: the Federated Dynamic Regularizer, which adjusts the local loss function dynamically to facilitate the convergence of local models toward the global optimum, and the Dynamic Federated Distillation, which compresses models to minimize communication costs while improving the reliability of knowledge and safeguarding privacy. By orthogonally combining the codes of both algorithms, the paper can effectively leverage their advantages. Experiments conducted on three datasets—MovieLens-1M, MovieLens-100K, and Pinterest—compare the optimized algorithm FedDyn-DF with baseline methods such as FedAvg and FedProx, as well as the original algorithms. The results show that FedDyn-DF outperforms these methods, converging faster while also protecting privacy.

Authors: LI Luyu
Published: December 2024

The phenomenon of market homogenization has intensified, resulting in increasingly fierce vicious competition among enterprises and loss of vitality in the development of the industry. Reduced consumer loyalty to enterprises and brands is the main manifestation of this phenomenon. This homogenized competition in the market will not only bring about a waste of corporate resources, but also lead to market mechanism failure and chaos in the industry. However, Barbie, POP Mart and KFC are three famous brands that have broken the market homogenization competition by establishing effective triggering mechanisms to promote consumers to generate brand associations and thus increase customer loyalty.We found that there are two types of triggers, one is external perception and the other is internal emotion. By choosing different stimulus points, companies can create effective triggers that have a wide range of communication and are closely related to the brand, and these triggers can help consumers form a cognitive system of the brand and deepen brand associations, thus increasing customer loyalty. This analysis helps other companies in the same industry to open up new marketing models. It helps enterprises to get rid of the phenomenon of market homogenization, reduce vicious competition in the industry, and maintain the healthy development of the industry.

Implementation of Pre Fetch Function FIFO
Authors: Li Jinyuan
Published: December 2024

When the data processing speed is mismatched or multitasking occurs, frequent data reads may lead to a decrease in the processing efficiency of FIFO. To solve this problem, an asynchronous FIFO circuit with a prefetching function was designed based on the traditional asynchronous FIFO circuit. This circuit adds an enable controller and output unit register on the basis of the original asynchronous FIFO module. The enable controller completes the conversion between the read pointer and null pointer of the ordinary FIFO and the pre-fetch FIFO, and the output register outputs the data as read data to achieve data pre-fetch. Using Modelsim for functional verification, simulations were conducted in various modes such as writing only one data read and continuous reading after completion. The simulation results showed that the design can quickly and accurately read data from the FIFO. The design of this module can effectively improve system performance and resource utilization and has a guiding role in the future development of fields such as network communication and image and video processing.

From Inflation to Structure Formation: The Universe’s Evolutionary Path
Authors: Du Siyi
Published: December 2024

This paper examines the evolutionary path of the universe from the period of cosmic inflation to the large-scale structures formation, such as clusters and galaxies. The inflationary model, which proposes a rapid exponential expansion shortly after the Big Bang, is explored in detail to explain the uniformity of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and the large-scale isotropy observed today. Key phases, such as the Recombination Era and Structure Formation, are analyzed, highlighting the role of dark matter in the gravitational collapse of baryonic matter and the formation of cosmic structures. The findings confirm that inflation is a crucial framework for understanding the universe’s large-scale properties, although challenges remain in explaining early galaxy formation and the nature of dark energy. Observational evidence from missions like WMAP and Planck provides strong support for the inflationary model, yet new discoveries from the James Webb Space Telescope prompt a reconsideration of early cosmic evolution models.

La regulación legal de los influencers en España
Authors: Perales Albert Alejandro
Published: December 2024

The boom achieved by User-Generated Content (UGC) disseminating personally information, opinions, and entertainment through the internet has significantly transformed the audiovisual landscape in recent years. This media phenomenon, propitiated by the interactivity and technological convergence of electronic communications, has given rise to a broad public debate around the social influence exerted by these content generators (hence their name of influencers) and the regulation of their activity. This article, through the content analysis of the Spanish legal texts, concludes that the current regulations alow a climate of "laxity" and "impunity" in the face of the dissemination of inappropriate content at a time in which social concern due to the influence of UGC, especially among minors, adolescents and young people, have been steadily mounting. As a consequence of the result of this exegesis, the need for a general legal framework that recognizes the responsibility of UGC and establishes mechanisms to combat the dissemination of illicit or harmful content is proposed, seeking a balance between freedom of expression and the protection of the public.
