Classification of possible combinations of AI and simulation in the field of maritime logistics
The operational efficiency of the maritime transport chain depends, among other things, on intelligent process control. Simulation has proven to be a suitable method for increasing effi-ciency in recent years. Artificial intelligence (AI) methods now promise further efficiency gains. [more]
Classification and Analysis of Safety Accidents in Terminals in Relation to Training Deficiencies
Container terminals are high-risk environments. Human error, interactions between equipment and procedural violations can all lead to serious safety incidents. Preliminary investigations have revealed that the complexity of operations and a lack of training, awareness and preparation among terminal staff are the root causes of many accidents. [more]
