Energy-Efficient model for integrated berth allocation and quay crane management by Saeedeh Khalilpoor, Mehdi A. Kamran, Reza Babazadeh, Reza Kia

“…The challenge of allocating berths and assigning as well as scheduling quay cranes (QCs) is identified as one of the most important concerns of port operations, given that it involves many trade-offs for the improvement of efficiency. This research has explored this complex problem of QC scheduling with the incorporation of three operational conditions which have less attention in the literature: service priority of container vessels, QC preventive maintenance, and energy consumption. …”

A dual-method approach integrating dynamic QCA and LightGBM-SHAP algorithms to uncover the configuration paths and key drivers of water resource green efficiency in China by Naiming He, Rijia Ding

“…This study presents three key innovations: (1) It applies the super-efficiency epsilon-based measurement and global Malmquist–Luenberger index (Super-EBM-GML) model from the perspective of high-quality economic development to analyze the spatiotemporal characteristics of WRGE across 30 Chinese provinces from 2014 to 2022. (2) It uses the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework and dynamic qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) model to identify the key drivers of WRGE and regional variations. (3) It integrates machine learning (light gradient-boosting machine with Shapley additive explanations; LightGBM-SHAP) with QCA to quantify the impact of variables, combining qualitative and quantitative analysis. …”

Enhanced Lightweight Quantum Key Distribution Protocol for Improved Efficiency and Security by Ashutosh Bhatia, Sainath Bitragunta, Kamlesh Tiwari

“…However, the classical post-processing steps in BB84, such as sifting, error correction, and key verification, often result in significant communication overhead, limiting its efficiency and scalability. In this work, we propose three key optimizations for BB84: (1) PRNG-based predetermined key bit positioning, which eliminates redundant bit exchanges during sifting, (2) hash-based subsequence comparison, enabling lightweight and efficient key verification, and (3) adaptive basis reconciliation, which minimizes the communication costs associated with basis matching. …”
