Ports and waterways are key in supporting the waterborne supply chains that form the backbone of global trade. Maintaining adequate water depth is vital for accessibility and safe navigation. Port authorities and contractors are the key players in developing maintenance strategies, and they strive for a mutually beneficial compromise. Port authorities aim to optimize port performance while keeping costs and delays at acceptable levels. Contractors aim to optimize the use of equipment and execution strategies to achieve cost-effectiveness and time efficiency. While minimum cost and duration are common and simple decision criteria, there is growing societal pressure to incorporate smart, sustainable, and circular elements. However, these elements are less straightforward to interpret and there is a lack of a comprehensive framework to quantify smart, circular, and sustainable strategies. This lack of clarity presents significant challenges in balancing traditional and emerging objectives in port maintenance. Our study directly addresses this gap by providing a structured approach to decision-making that integrates these critical but complex elements. As a result, trade-offs on these important issues are harder to achieve reducing the contributions of port authorities and contractors. This study addresses this gap by applying the Frame of Reference (FoR) method to extract objectives and indicators for decision-making from both the port authorities' and contractors' perspectives. We fill in the prescribed elements of the basic FoR template through a systematic literature review (SLR), clarifying to what extent consensus exists on these topics. The SLR revealed 128 articles and identified common strategies, research methods, influential journals, and contributing countries. Projecting these findings onto the basic FoR template showed that the protection of marine ecosystems and sediment management has received considerable attention from researchers while mitigating emissions and adopting smart techniques are emerging subjects in the literature that need further investigations. As a result, this study offers theoretical and managerial insights to improve what can be achieved with smart, circular, and sustainable maintenance strategies, while identifying crucial remaining knowledge gaps.@en

Clinical network neuroscience, the study of brain network topology in neurological and psychiatric diseases, has become a mainstay field within clinical neuroscience. Being a multidisciplinary group of clinical network neuroscience experts based in The Netherlands, we often discuss the current state of the art and possible avenues for future investigations. These discussions revolve around questions like “How do dynamic processes alter the underlying structural network?” and “Can we use network neuroscience for disease classification?” This opinion paper is an incomplete overview of these discussions and expands on ten questions that may potentially advance the field. By no means intended as a review of the current state of the field, it is instead meant as a conversation starter and source of inspiration to others.@en
