Concept based on SCEM (Supply Chain Event Management) Proactive monitoring of the transport chain – What is an Event?  Significant change in State – Reality vs. Expectation  Specifying deviation – Detect impact on subsequent execution  analysing deviation (e.g. recalculate time of arrival) Considering different types of Events – Expected “normal” events – Unexpected deviations of normal events (e.g. delays) – Unpredicted “abnormal” events (e.g. fairway blockage) Specification of response patterns (e.g. adapt speed) 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 9RISING - Oliver Klein

Automatic monitoring and detection of... Deviations from plans: – Transport: Voyage Planning a-priori: position and availability of vessels ETD,ATD (waypoint, origin) ETA, ATA (waypoint, destination) NtS (fairway and traffic related, locks, water levels, obstructions) RTA (at terminals) – Transhipment facilities: [Resource|Berth] Planning vessel ETA, ATA announcements (at terminal) RTA announcements cargo (quantity and stowage) crane and staff availability 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 10RISING - Oliver Klein

(EDA) denotes an architectural style Facilitates simple integration of existing systems Publish/Subscribe messaging paradigm – senders (publishers) – receivers (subscribers) Published messages = Events with a dynamic set of receivers Subscriptions = “persistent queries” with deferred results →Reduction of information overload & bandwidth 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 11RISING - Oliver Klein

Integrated or linked to operational River Information Services or transport/terminal information sources Information domain specific (e.g. position, ETA, lock status, water-level, etc.) Event Service Module (ESM) – Receive subscriptions – Receive and store raw data from external sensors / applications (data sources) – Filter (process) raw data to produce relevant events according to individual subscriptions – Publish events to subscribers 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 12RISING - Oliver Klein RIS – River Information Services EMC Event Management Components Transport/Terminal Management and Operating System ESM Event Service Modules

Integrated or linked to operational transport management and port or terminal management systems Event Management Component (EMC) – Receive plan data – Determine attributes to be monitored (filter creation) – Place subscriptions at relevant sources (ESM) – Receive events – Analyse impact of received events on plans – Trigger reactions on deviations (alerts) 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 13RISING - Oliver Klein RIS – River Information Services EMC Event Management Components Transport/Terminal Management and Operating System ESM Event Service Modules

IWT has become an integral part of the intermodal transport chains. As such it has to comply with requirements of supply chain management. Enable easy integration of RIS data into transport management software Achieve easy accessibility to RIS information Limit mass of information: filter only relevant data Receive more frequent accurate information from vessels & skippers Decrease manual reporting efforts RISING services aid monitoring of ongoing transports by – providing a harmonized set of event services for all RIS transport and terminal related information – providing a harmonized subscription mechanism for these events facilitating the easy integration into ERP systems 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 17RISING - Oliver Klein

Event management allows automatic monitoring of voyages and fairway conditions Detecting deviations early will give the planner a time advantage to react Information is limited to the relevant facts Concise & up-to-date overview of the current situation regarding vessels and waterways 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 20RISING - Oliver Klein

RISING Services: Spreading the benefits of RIS to the transport & logistics world Increasing reliability and accountability of IWT Closing information gaps Removing barriers hindering the integration of IWT in intermodal transport chains Providing web services in a harmonized way Cooperation with EU RIS expert groups and other EU projects Exploitable solutions are ready 9-10 May, Delft - NLpage 21RISING - Oliver Klein
