A self-attention-based reinforcement learning approach for scheduling twin automated stacking cranes in container terminals

Complex & Intelligent Systems
In automated container terminals, improving the scheduling of automated stacking cranes (ASCs) is critical to optimizing operational efficiency. Since the twin ASCs cannot cross each other, a reasonable operation sequence to minimize interference and ...

Integrating Berthing Plan and Container Transshipment at the Sea‐Rail Intermodal Terminal

IET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This article integrates the sea‐rail intermodal container transshipment optimization problem with berth planning. A mathematical programming model is formulated and a heuristic solution approach is proposed. The approach demonstrates the potential to reduce overall operational costs and various operational factors are analysed to provide managerial ...

From rights to runtime: Privacy engineering for agentic AI

AI Magazine, Volume 46, Issue 4, Winter 2025.
Abstract Agentic AI shifts stacks from request‐response to plan‐execute. Systems no longer just answer; they act—planning tasks, calling tools, keeping memory, and changing external state. That shift moves privacy from policy docs into the runtime.

Bridged Conductive Nanofibrous Membrane Overcoming the Porosity‐Conductivity Trade‐Off for Electrothermal Air Purification

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 47, December 18, 2025.
To overcome the porosity‐conductivity trade‐off in conductive porous membranes, a conductive nanofibrous membrane bridged by self‐assembled PPy nanowires is constructed, integrating multiscale porosity with continuous electron pathways. This material‐structure‐function strategy achieves low‐resistance and high‐efficiency filtration combined with ...

Staged ecologies: Aesthetics, nature and infrastructure in the late‐modern metropolis

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 50, Issue 4, December 2025.
Short Abstract This paper examines the relationship between urban nature and landscape design within a £1.5 billion regeneration project that is currently unfolding in Thamesmead, a town in south‐east London. It develops the notion of ‘staged ecologies’ to examine how urban nature is being spatially and aesthetically arranged across the town's ...
