In the global trucking industry, vertical collaboration between shippers and carriers is attained by intermediaries, called brokers. Brokers organize carriers for a shipper in accordance with its quality and price requirements, and support carriers to collaborate horizontally by sharing a large distribution order from a shipper. Brokers also act as trustees, preventing the passing of private information of any party to the others. Despite these benefits, intermediaries in the trucking industry are involved in several sustainability problems, including high costs, high levels of carbon emissions, high percentages of empty miles, low-capacity utilizations, and driver shortages. Several studies have acknowledged the importance of improving collaboration to address these problems. Obviously, the major concern of brokers is not collaboration, but rather to optimize their own gains. This paper investigates the potential of blockchain technology to improve collaboration in the trucking industry, by eliminating brokers while preserving their responsibilities as organizers and trustees. This paper extends the transportation control tower concept from the logistics literature, and presents a system architecture for its implementation through smart contracts on a blockchain network. In the proposed system, the scalability and privacy of trucking operations are ensured through integration with privacy-preserving off-chain computation and storage solutions (running outside of the blockchain). The potential of this design artifact for fostering collaboration in the trucking industry was evaluated by both blockchain technology experts and trucking industry professionals.

The Clean Energy Package foresees a strong roll out of decentralized energy systems with renewable generation and storage. The STORY project has designed and tested six different storage solutions for a decentralized renewable energy system. In the workshop organised in the frame of SP19 conference, we highlighted some of the economic, social and technical barriers to storage in Europe and how these have been addressed.

Flash memory has served as an important technology driver due to its many new applications. Despite the fact that NAND flash has out run lithography and other scaling barriers and thus is facing steep challenges, several innovative solutions are being developed to carry its momentum, and it continues to serve as a technology driver in the nanoelectronics era. New devices that are not based on charge storage, on the other hand, are promising to further boost system performance by offering low-power, high-density, and fast latency storage. These new developments should provide the next generation memory and storage solutions that will elevate system performance to a new level.

Автоматизация контейнерных терминалов является одним из главных глобальных трендов в развитии технологий перегрузки и хранения контейнерных грузов. Системы автоматизации, применяемые на контейнерных терминалах, могут в разной степени включать в себя функции управления контейнеропотоком, планирования работы склада терминала, грузового планирования загрузки / разгрузки судов, автоматизации работы оборудования на терминале, планирования расстановки оборудования, электронного документооборота и другие. На традиционных (неавтоматизированных) терминалах большая часть перечисленных выше задач решается с непосредственным участием человека. Это приводит к неравномерности в интенсивности погрузочно-разгрузочных работ. В данной статье приводится сравнение показателей эффективности работы автоматизированных и неавтоматизированных контейнерных терминалов. Для целей сравнительного анализа применяется методика бенчмаркинга на основе обосновано выбранных показателей работы. Наиболее значимые показатели работы включают в себя напряженность работ причального фронта, частную производительность оборудования и интенсивность использования площади. Значения этих показателей сравниваются не только между автоматизированными и неавтоматизированными контейнерными терминалами, но и с типовыми показателями, используемыми при проектировании новых терминалов. Сделаны выводы и предположения о зависимостях некоторых показателей от уровня автоматизации терминала. Automatization is one of the main trends in global container handling and storage solutions. Automatization systems, applied at container terminals, may include following container flow controlling functions: storage area planning, container vessel cargo (bay) planning, cargo handling equipment, cargo handling equipment positioning, EDI (electronic document interchange), etc. Many of the functions mentioned are carried out manually at conventional non-automated container terminals. This leads to unsteadiness of cargo operation rates. This research shows the results of analytical comparison of selected KPIs (key performance indicators) of automated and non-automated container terminals. Method of benchmarking is used to compare certain KPIs. Among the most significant performance indicators are berth operations intensity, local productivity of equipment, intensity of storage area usage. These indicators are compared not only between automated and non-automated container terminals, but are also compared to typical design indicators used for drafting new terminals. A number of conclusions and suggestions about dependencies between KPIs and automatization level at container terminals is made.

Background: Storage procedures and parameters have a significant influence on the health of fresh osteochondral allograft (OCA) cartilage. To date, there is a lack of agreement on the optimal storage conditions for OCAs. Purpose: To systematically review the literature on (1) experimental designs and reporting of key variables of ex vivo (laboratory) studies, (2) the effects of various storage solutions and conditions on cartilage health ex vivo, and (3) in vivo animal studies and human clinical studies evaluating the effect of fresh OCA storage on osteochondral repair and outcomes. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 5. Methods: A systematic review was performed using the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases. The inclusion criteria were laboratory studies (ex vivo) reporting cartilage health outcomes after prolonged storage (>3 days) of fresh osteochondral or chondral tissue explants and animal studies (in vivo) reporting outcomes of fresh OCA. The inclusion criteria for clinical studies were studies (>5 patients) that analyzed the relationship of storage time or chondrocyte viability at time of implantation to patient outcomes. Frozen, cryopreserved, decellularized, synthetic, or tissue-engineered grafts were excluded. Results: A total of 55 peer-reviewed articles met the inclusion criteria. Ex vivo studies reported a spectrum of tissue sources and storage solutions and conditions, although the majority of studies lacked complete reporting of key variables, including storage solution formula and environmental conditions. The effect of various conditions (eg, temperature) and storage solutions on cartilage health were inconsistent. Although 60% of animal models suggest that storage time may influence outcomes and 80% indicate inferior outcomes with frozen OCA as compared with fresh OCA, 75% of clinical studies report no correlation between storage time and outcomes. Conclusion: Given the variability in experimental designs and lack of reporting across studies, it is still not possible to determine optimal storage conditions, although animal studies suggest that storage time and chondrocyte viability influence osteochondral repair outcomes. A list of recommendations was developed to encourage reporting of key variables, such as media formulation, environmental factors, and methodologies used. High-quality clinical data are needed to investigate the effects of storage and graft health on outcomes.
