The ubiquitous availability of devices such as smart phones, tablets, and other portable devices enables the collection of massive amounts of distributed data from the daily lives of citizens. These types of emerging mobile networks can provide new forms of valuable information that are currently not available on this scale via any traditional data collection methods. In such networks, price competition is the most important factor among the participants (mobile devices, Services Organizers and users) that highly affects their Quality-of-Experience (QoE). In this article, we first explain how a game theory model can depict social behavior, price competition and the evolutionary relationship among devices, Services Organizers (SOs) and users, and then we provide insights into understanding the price competition process of those participants in mobile networks. Finally, we outline several important open research directions.

There is a significantly increasing demand on developing a microLED (μLED) based microdisplay which may be the only display system that can meet the requirements for augmented reality/virtual reality systems, helmet mounted displays, and head‐up displays. However, a number of fundamental challenges which cannot be met by any existing technologies need to be overcome before such a microdisplay with satisfied performance becomes possible. In this paper, a different type of integration concept using an epitaxial approach is proposed, aiming to monolithically integrate μLEDs and high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) on a single chip. This concept can be potentially realized by using a selective epitaxial overgrowth method on a predefined HEMT template featuring microhole masks. Finally, the proposed epitaxial integration concept is translated into a prototype, demonstrating an 8 × 8 microLED microdisplay, where each μLED is electrically driven by an individual HEMT which surrounds its respective μLED via the gate bias of the HEMT.
