Contribution to Cross-platform Programming in Integrated Ship's Systems

Integration between maritime industry and ships’ current operation is increasing. It can be seen as on-line access of on-shore company’s monitoring team to all ships’ systems. It is enabled by satellite link and modern communications. This paper deals with advances in integration of all ship’s systems, which leads to Internet of things aboard and Internet of everything when linking to land through integrated communication systems. We propose Ship’s Internet of Everything (SIoE) and usage of RFID technology to identify who is giving and who has to execute commands. In order to implement such systems and enable access from any point, cross-platform programming should be used, which is discussed further.
