Urban sustainability is increasingly challenged in rapidly transforming coastal regions. This study operationalizes urban green development capacity as a measurable proxy for urban sustainability and constructs a multidimensional assessment framework integrating economic development, technological innovation, green transformation performance, and green coordination capacity. Using the entropy weight-TOPSIS method, we conduct a longitudinal analysis of Qingdao (2014-2023) and a cross-sectional comparison of 24 coastal cities in eastern China in 2023. Qingdao's composite score increased steadily from 0.25 in 2014 to 0.81 in 2023, with post-2020 growth accelerating markedly following structural and policy adjustments. In contrast, inter-city disparities remain substantial: the leading cities exhibit sustainability capacity levels nearly twofold higher than those at the lower end of the distribution. Cities with stronger technological innovation intensity and institutional coordination consistently outperform others, highlighting the importance of governance-technology coupling. These results suggest that urban sustainability is associated with a coupled interaction pattern among capital, technology, performance, and institutional coordination rather than linear economic expansion. The study provides a quantitative tool for measuring and benchmarking urban sustainability capacity and offers empirical support for differentiated sustainability transition pathways in coastal and transition-economy cities.
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in enterprise contexts to support complex problem-solving tasks. Yet individual LLMs remain bounded by model-specific capability limitations. These heterogeneous capability boundaries pose a deployment challenge, but they also create an opportunity: strategically coordinating multiple LLMs may unlock collective intelligence that exceeds the performance of any single model. Existing approaches fix how models are combined in advance, overlooking the dynamic and state-dependent role of complementarity in complex LLM problem solving. Drawing on the wisdom-of-crowds paradigm, we reconceptualize collective LLM intelligence as relay-style complementarity: a sequential coordination process in which each successor model is selected to address the specific bottleneck identified in its predecessor's output. To operationalize this relay-style complementarity, we propose WILC (Wisdom Integration of LLM Crowds), a framework grounded in two design principles. First, iterative reflectionand-refinement establishes a state-preserving workflow through which models diagnose and refine prior outputs. Second, complementarity-driven model selection governs model transitions through a dual-gate mechanism: prospective complementarity fit (PCF) identifies the worker most suited to the current bottleneck, while posterior complementarity gain (PCG) evaluates whether the selected transition improves the evolving solution. Together, these design principles support strategic model transitions that refine answers through capability complementarity. Extensive experiments across four diverse benchmarks show that WILC achieves superior performance compared to existing approaches, including single-model self-refinement, ensemble methods, and dedicated query-routing methods. Under standardized pricing assumptions, WILC achieves comparable average benchmark performance to GPT-5.2 at approximately 7× lower estimated per-query cost, while facilitating data sovereignty through self-hosted deployment. This study contributes to IS research by extending wisdom-of-crowds theory from static aggregation to sequential AI complementarity and by providing transferable design principles for multi-AI coordination.
This study examines how learning-by-exporting (LBE) might enhance innovation when a corporation adopts a configurational approach for worldwide expansion. To determine the impacts of innovation, factors such as resource-based variables and absorptive capacity are considered, along with internationalization features such as market breadth and intensity. We assert that, from the standpoint of dynamic capabilities, all three are essential for LBE. We recognize that pursuing rapid innovation, market expansion, and simultaneous export may strain resources and complicate LBE. This study analyzed the interdependencies among LBE characteristics by comparing 2,748 manufacturing enterprises over 2007-2014. This research considers both symmetric and equifinal interactions. Our study is valuable for researchers as it elucidates the importance of internationalization elements in relation to LBE. These documents also provide valuable assistance to managers aiming to enhance exporters' absorption capacity or secure funding for specific projects. Furthermore, they provide counsel to enterprises on integrating their export marketing and innovation divisions.

Tomatoes are annual herbaceous plants of the family Solanaceae. They have very stringent requirements for their growing environment and climate conditions. To precisely control the greenhouse environment for tomato growth, this project designed and implemented a monitoring system utilizing programmable logic controllers and a data acquisition system for monitoring. Sensors are installed at key locations in the greenhouse, such as near the ground, in the plant canopy, and under the roof, to monitor environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, and carbon dioxide concentration in real time. A three-layer feedforward GA-BP neural network model was established using soil temperature, soil humidity, air humidity, and illumination as predictive parameters. This technology predicts optimal environmental parameters and performs real-time monitoring and intelligent control, overcoming the traditional BP neural network’s drawbacks of slow convergence, susceptibility to disturbance, and poor generalization ability, with the current model’s average prediction error being less than 5%. It provides a theoretical basis and decision support for precision control and related environmental forecasting in agricultural projects. Based on the growth characteristics, physiological and morphological features of tomatoes, and the comprehensive impact of planting conditions, the technology enhances tomato yield and quality while reducing production costs and labor inputs. It mainly includes the establishment of tomato growth models, measurement and control of environmental parameters, and the design and optimization of intelligent decision control systems. Research outcomes in this field are significant for improving agricultural production efficiency, ensuring food security, and promoting sustainable agricultural development.
This study aims to investigate the classification of technological innovation meta-theories based on classical texts, as well as the relationships between various classifications. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are employed. From the perspective of technological innovation, using scientometric methods, 105 pieces of classic texts from the 1930s-2010s are extracted from the references of 3862 pieces of high-quality literature from the 1900s-2020s. As a result, based on a combination of qualitative data analysis and topic model analysis, we developed a typology with eight meta-theories of technological innovation, including performance-based, resource-based, knowledge-based, capability-based, network-based, technological-innovation-system, dual-innovation, and dynamic-sustainability views. Then we analyzed 1) the evolution, reification, and confusion relationships between different meta-theories; 2) the causes of technological innovation's concept jungle; and 3) an integrated framework of technological innovation meta-theories. This study analyzed the benefits of the meta-theoretical analysis on the future study of technological innovation. Additionally, the results of this study can help to measure technological innovation, construct new theories, and improve the efficiency of the connection between the practical problems of innovation and potentially useful theoretical frameworks.

Research Background and Content. Intellectual property and high-quality economic development are mutually reinforcing and restrictive, China is a large but not a strong intellectual property country, and China’s high-quality economic development still has problems of inadequacy and imbalance. Based on the above research background, this paper mainly studies the relationship between the intellectual property system and the high-quality economic development system from the perspective of coupled and coordinated development. Research Objective. The objective is to measure the coupling and coordination degree between the intellectual property development system and the high-quality economic development system and to explore the spatiotemporal characteristics and differences in the coupling and coordination between the two systems. Research Method. Based on the data of 30 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) from 2013 to 2020, the methods used in this paper to analyse include entropy weight method, grey correlation analysis, coupling coordination degree model, and Dagum Gini coefficient. Research Results. The development of economic openness and innovation are more closely related to the development of intellectual property, and the protection, utilization, and creation of intellectual property are more closely related to high-quality economic development; the coupling coordination degree of the two systems shows the characteristics such as “high in the east and low in the west” and “coastal area is better than inland,” and the development of intellectual property lags behind the high-quality economic development; the coupling and coordination degree of the two systems shows a slight growth trend in most provinces, but the overall differences shows an expanding trend, and differences between regions are the main sources of overall regional differences. Research Innovation. Research innovation is to study the two-way relationship between intellectual property and high-quality economic development and to measure the coupling and coordination degree between the development system of intellectual property and the high-quality economic development system, and its spatiotemporal characteristics, regional differences, and sources of differences are analyzed. Research Value. Research value is to provide decision reference for the two-way empowerment of intellectual property and high-quality economic development and regional coordinated development.
This paper investigates whether the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic affects the green inventions of firms, universities, and firm–university collaborations (FUCs) differently. Our identification used provincial-level monthly data from China. Results from the difference-in-differences (DID) model showed that the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted the output of three types of green invention patents. After the parallel-trend test, placebo test, and triple-difference estimation, our conclusion has good robustness. However, the COVID-19 pandemic also influences the role of other policies, such as the SO2-emissions-trading pilot policy for universities’ green inventions. There has been a slight change in the effect of dual carbon targets on green inventions since the start of the pandemic. The positive effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has been weaker for provinces where the pandemic has been more severe than in other provinces. The results of this study are compared with the results and empirical evidence of other related studies and the theoretical logic of COVID-19 crisis-promoted green inventions are discussed.

3-D printing is an additive manufacturing process, which enables products to be custom designed. Obtaining the evolution trend and identifying the potential R&D hotspots of 3-D printing technology are important strategic issues for both nations and enterprises. In this article, a combination method is proposed using the Viterbi algorithm to identify technological terms in patents, using the latent Dirichlet allocation model to capture potential technological topics in patents, and using the hidden Markov model to analyze the distribution and evolution pattern of the technological topics. Based on the results, technological topics and future R&D hotspots in 3-D printing are identified. Among the technological topics, extrusion devices and laser powder molding are gradually losing R&D; model acquisition, extrusion devices, rotary printing, and denture are the key topics of technological evolution that are difficult to overcome; laser focusing, print head, color printing, recyclable, feeding, control panel, and denture will become the focus of R&D in the near future. Finally, a comparison and experiments are given to demonstrate the plausibility of our method.
Purpose The purpose of this study is to reveal a sequential mediating process of the impact of shared leadership on team performance by studying the sequential mediating effect of team trust and team learning behavior. Design/methodology/approach This study develops and examines a sequential mediation model using the meta-analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) method. The sample adopted consists of 347 independent effect sizes extracted from 280 empirical papers (288 independent studies, N = 21,888 groups). Findings The results indicate that team trust and team learning behavior play a sequential mediating effect in the shared leadership–team performance relationship. Practical implications The findings suggest that practitioners should share leadership functions and responsibilities among talented team members. Furthermore, practitioners should strengthen the emotional interaction among team members and give positive feedback to the team's intensive learning behaviors. Originality/value By identifying the sequential mediating effect of team trust and team learning behavior, this study not only advances the understandings of a comprehensive mediating process through which shared leadership enhances team performance, but also offers new insights into the interrelationship of different types of mediating mechanisms (i.e. team emergent state and team process) in the shared leadership–team performance relationship.

With the rapid development of Internet and information technology, networks have become an important media of information diffusion in the global. In view of the increasing scale of network data, how to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the obtainable links from networks has been an urgent problem that needs to be solved. Different from most traditional link prediction methods only focus on the missing links, a novel link prediction approach is proposed in this paper to handle both the missing links and the spurious links in networks. At first, we define the attractive force for any pair of nodes to denote the strength of the relation between them. Then, all the nodes can be divided into some communities according to their degrees and the attractive force on them. Next, we define the connection probability for each pair of unconnected nodes to measure the possibility if they are connected, the missing links can be predicted by calculating and comparing the connection probabilities of all the pairs of unconnected nodes. Moreover, we define the break probability for each pair of connected nodes to measure the possibility if they are broken, the spurious links can also be detected by calculating and comparing the break probabilities of all the pairs of connected nodes. To verify the validity of the proposed approach, we conduct experiments on some real-world networks. The results show the proposed approach can achieve higher prediction accuracy and more stable performance compared with some existing methods.
