Automatic Identification System (AIS), as a major data source of navigational data, is widely used in the application of connected ships for the purpose of implementing maritime situation awareness and evaluating maritime transportation. Efficiently extracting featured data from AIS database is always a challenge and time-consuming work for maritime administrators and researchers. In this paper...

Ro-Ro transportation refers to a way of maritime transportation that uses Ro-Ro to bring goods and shipment together. Developments of Ro-Ro transport at home and abroad are outlined, and development process of China’s Ro-Ro transport is reviewed. The development and status of Ro-Ro transport of Yangtze River are analyzed in detail. Based on survey research, due to the change of road structure o...

The baseline of this paper is the current market situation that in the present global situation with the full swing of transportation and new logistical concepts, demands new approaches to organization and management of the maritime business towards integration in the supply chains. The purpose of this paper (contribution) is to inform the reader on the concept of time-bound logistical services...

The Belt and Road initiative, recently embarked on by China, aims to improve cross-border infrastructure in order to reduce transportation costs across a massive geographical area between China and Europe. We estimate how much trade might be created among Belt and Road countries as a consequence of the reduction in transportation costs (both railway and maritime) and find that European Union co...

The present paper approaches the development and application of a Discrete Event Simulation (DES) model with a Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) tool for the simulation and sizing of a closed-loop maritime transportation system. This system is responsible for the supply of raw materials, especially iron ore, to a steel plant, and its sizing involves the analysis of the transportation f...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is delivering solutions with improved efficiency and security, providing better productivity in manufacturing, retail, other sectors. Maritime Transportation Systems (MTSs) currently adopting the IoT to move toward a digitalized, data-driven world increased lower costs, creating new revenue opportunities. Integration also enables real-time tracking shipments, cargo ...
