“…Furthermore, a coordinated application, such as icebreaker assistance, can reduce the need for verbal communication between the icebreaker navigator and the supported vessels. Today, the primary mode of communication is via VHF radios, even though they are associated with a high risk of miscommunication and misunderstanding [40]. The proposed application can transmit key data, information, and commands, thereby reducing the risk of misunderstandings and improving communication between team members to help obtain shared situation awareness.…”

A vessel convoy is a complex and high-risk operation completed during icebreaking operations in the Arctic. Icebreaker navigators need to continuously communicate with their crew while monitoring information such as speed, heading, and distance between vessels in the convoy. This paper presents an augmented reality user interface concept, which aims to support navigators by improving oversight and safety during convoy operations. The concept demonstrates how augmented reality can help to realize a situated user interface that adapts to user’s physical and operational contexts. The concept was developed through a human-centered design process and tested through a virtual reality simulator in a usability study involving seven mariners. The results suggest that augmented reality has the potential to improve the safety of convoy operations by integrating distributed information with heads-up access to operation-critical information. However, the user interface concept is still novel, and further work is needed to develop the concept and safely integrate augmented reality into maritime operations.

“…The cyber-physical systembased End-to-End Customer Order Management System (E2E COMS) helps manage the utilization of shipping capacity (Saha et al, 2016). Machine learning helps optimize the loading of ships (Tran, 2020), enhancing the safety and operating efficiency of shipping activities (Aylward et al, 2020).…”

Coupled with digital-enabled Industry 4.0 development, shipping operators increasingly leverage popular digital technologies to innovate green shipping practices. This study provides insights into the concept, adoption, and challenges of digital green shipping innovation (DGSI) to advance knowledge in the field. Such innovation elevates green shipping for environmentally friendly cargo handling and movement by digital technology applications. Against this backdrop, this study reviews literature involving DGSI and identifies four categories of practices. We develop propositions concerning its antecedents and outcomes to understand its adoption. The challenges and opportunities for adopting DGSI are also identified with managerial guidance to plan green innovation in the shipping industry. This research enriches the knowledge of green shipping in the digital-enabled era with insights and guideposts for managers and policymakers to understand the value of digital technologies for greener shipping operations.

“…Here, we considered the LoAs for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship as defined by IMO [12] which synchronize with other existing LoAs [8] and therefore chosen for benchmarking purposes in Table 2. Levels 0 & 1 are already operational and thus labelled as 'work as done' [13] where we have real data/ information about concepts of operations and safety (for example). The remaining LoAs are not yet available for wider commercial operation thus labelled as 'work as imagined' where the data/information from commercial operations are not sufficient thus mostly imaginary based on current STS.…”

The introduction of automated solutions for inland waterways shipping supports the European vision for a sustainable and greener shift within maritime management and logistics. Despite increasing investments, impressive technological advancements, and active discussion to solve the regulatory and business model barriers, socio-technical aspects are still less studied in the preparation for the future of autonomous shipping. This study examines stakeholder and technology roles to map the gaps and challenges created in this emerging space using a system theory approach, specifically a recently developed work design system analysis tool named Change Agent Infrastructure (CHAI) analysis [1]. This framework was chosen to better understand the likely changes of the system with the introduction of automated technology and higher degrees of automation and digitalization in the European inland waterways. The analysis identifies that there are multiple receivers of the change and regulatory bodies will also be actors with considerable responsibilities to direct these changes.
