In line with the increasing availability of antineoplastic biosimilars, it is pertinent to understand the oncologists' view on the adoption of biosimilars in their clinical practice. The study aimed to assess (i) the prevalence of biosimilar use, (ii) perception towards biosimilars, (iii) factors influencing the use of biosimilars and (iv) knowledge about biosimilars among Malaysian oncologists.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted among clinical oncologists and medical oncologists in Malaysia between January 2020 and February 2021 using a structured 31-item questionnaire.ResultsAmong the 121 oncologists registered in the country, 36 responded (response rate = 30%). A total of 64% of the respondents prescribed biosimilars either often or always. Most oncologists (72%) agreed or strongly agreed that switching will not have a significant effect on the treatment benefit, with lower percentages saying that they agreed or strongly agreed that it will not lead to the emergence of additional adverse effects (56%) or harmful immunogenicity (64%). Patients' preferences (40%) and the non-availability of biosimilars in hospitals (34%) are the major barriers cited to the prescribing of biosimilars. Cost differences and robust pharmacovigilance activities are the two most important factors that would influence the prescribing of biosimilars. The mean score of knowledge in biosimilar among respondents was 3.81 (± 0.86) out of a maximum possible score of 6.ConclusionsThe identified gap in prescribing and the use of biosimilars among Malaysian oncologists warrant educational intervention and robust pharmacovigilance activities to facilitate the prescribing of biosimilars and ultimately increase the accessibility to biologics in cancer treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":55224,"journal":{"name":"Computer Communications","volume":"12 1","pages":"189-199"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75120995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional approaches typically address message scheduling and buffer management as isolated optimization problems, resulting in suboptimal resource utilization where high-utility messages are often dropped to accommodate lower-value traffic. To bridge this gap, this paper proposes a unified, utility-based framework that jointly optimizes these decisions by formulating the contact opportunity as a Multidimensional 0/1 Knapsack Problem (MKP). We derive rigorous, closed-form marginal utility functions for three distinct objectives: maximizing delivery probability, minimizing average latency, and a composite metric balancing both. Unlike static heuristics, these metrics are derived from a deadline-constrained probabilistic model that explicitly quantifies the marginal benefit of replication relative to the message’s remaining Time-to-Live (TTL). To solve the resulting NP-hard joint allocation problem in real time, we introduce a computationally efficient greedy heuristic based on Utility Density. Trace-driven simulations using real-world vehicular mobility datasets (San Francisco and Rome) demonstrate that our unified policy outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, including ReAR and OBSBM.

To solve this problem, we propose FMSformer, a frequency-aware multi-scale spatial temporal correlation model, which simultaneously models multi-scale temporal dynamics and spatial dependencies among edge servers. Specially, it jointly models cross-server collaborative evolution at multiple time scales by grouping related servers to capture spatial dependencies, while simultaneously extracting multi-scale temporal correlations within each individual server. Furthermore, we extract high energy frequency components to model global dependencies. Finally, a time–frequency mixed loss is employed to avoid label dependence, thereby improving prediction accuracy.

In this framework, mobile edge computing servers coordinate collaborative training, while DTs maintain real-time physical-virtual synchronization. Our core contributions are threefold. First, to tackle device heterogeneity, we propose two mechanisms: (1) an elastic time window that dynamically adapts aggregation deadlines based on median training times while incorporating distance-aware resource compensation to mitigate channel degradation, and (2) a DT-enhanced weighting strategy that dynamically balances energy sustainability, channel quality, and model freshness while guaranteeing convergence through closed-loop cross-layer coordination. Second, we derive a convergence bound explicitly linked to the device participation ratio, establishing a direct theoretical connection between resource allocation and learning performance. Then, through theoretical analysis, it can be found that reducing training latency and energy consumption by jointly optimizing computing and communication resources, as well as EH duration, is key to maximizing this ratio without compromising the reliability of the gradients, thereby indirectly enhancing convergence. Third, guided by this insight, we formulate a mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem that aims to maximize the participation ratio while jointly minimizing energy consumption and training latency, by optimizing the energy harvesting time, collaboration ratio, and communication/computation resources. To solve this NP-hard problem, we propose a DT-driven decomposition framework that partitions it into two subproblems, which are then solved by three DT-driven algorithms with provable near-optimality guarantees.
