• Upgrading or Replacing Terminal Operating System (TOS) Software
– Switch from In House to COTS (Commercial Of The Shelf)– TOS that has flexibility to interface with Third Party Systems and is
database agnostic– Increasing Customer Self Service Features– Multi Terminal Operations, Reporting, and Data Center
Consolidation
Technology Trends
• Implementing new Hardware based technologies to provide some level of automated operations• Semi – Automated
• Fully Automated• Extending Technology beyond the Terminal
• Vessel AIS
• Drayman Tracking

Technology Technicality
• Technology is rapidly evolving more over the most recent time period in the maritime space than any other time period in history
• Decisions and Process– Not only must the technology “appropriately”
address the need, it must also fit the IT direction of the organization deploying the solution
– Trending towards purchasers with a high level of Operational and IT knowledge, the silo is disappearing

Sequencing with AutoStow
• Exports will be distributed across the stacks
• Sequence from the stack is driven by cycling across the stacks.
• The goal is not overload an stack with too much work.

How do you measure improvement?
• Reporting tools (integrated or external)
• Data Warehousing / Data Cubes
• Integrate information from disparate systems– e.g. TOS + Financial data
= operational cost per rehandle

• Many TOS providers have created alliances, partnerships, or acquired the common third party technologies– Gate OCR, Damage Inspection, Empty Inspection, and Seal
Detection– Crane OCR– Yard PDS– Gate and Yard RFID– Services and Hosting
Alliances and Partnerships

ASC and AGV – Fully or Highly Automated Terminal
• Automated Stacking Cranes (ASCs)– Perpendicular to the berth (end loading)– Horizontal to the berth (side loading)– Hybrid (side and end loading)
• Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)– Shuttle Carriers– AGVs– Lift AGVs– Cassette AGVs

Automation Reality – “Incremental”
• Majority of existing terminals will not fully automate
• Majority of new terminals will not fully Automate
(lower labor cost regions)
• HOWEVER - Many terminals will introduce Incremental Automation with the
following objectives:
Improve Productivity: Real-time data exchanges / NO keypads
Drive down costs: Reduce Personnel/Reduce Carbon Footprint
Improve Safety: Remove Personnel from Ops areas
Optimize resources: Equipment, Land and Personnel

Areas That are Still Emerging or Refined (Challenges)
• Wireless Coverage in Marine Terminals– Narrowband
• FCC Spectrum Challenges
– 3G or Cellar• Reliability• Speed• Cellular Card• Monthly Fees
– 802.11(a/b/g/n)• Infrastructure Costs
(Greenfield vs. Retrofit)• MotoMesh• Focus Arrays
