Plachkov_Alex_2016_thesis
This thesis presents a framework for integrating hard sensor data and soft data sources, like incident reports, to improve maritime situational awareness and automated course of action generation. The framework extends an existing Risk Management Framework to incorporate soft data features into risk modeling and evaluation. It also includes soft data, like subject matter expertise, to generate more effective response plans. The framework is validated using real and synthetic maritime scenarios. Performance is evaluated using metrics like information fusion effectiveness and ability to handle uncertainties. The results demonstrate the framework can provide more accurate and timely situational updates by integrating different data sources.

Paper presentation International Conference Key Developments in the port and maritime sector
Universitet Antwerpen, 21-22 May, 2012Do ecolabels lead to better environmental outcomes in shipping?
The document analyzes whether ecolabels lead to better environmental outcomes in the international shipping industry. It reviews 5 major shipping ecolabels and finds that:
1) No ecolabel has achieved universal recognition from key stakeholders like cargo owners and ports.
2) There is little evidence that ship owners use ecolabels to differentiate their services.
3) Some ecolabels lack legitimacy due to controversy and low engagement from civil society groups.
4) Recent EU and IMO regulations on monitoring and reporting ship fuel consumption and emissions suggest policymakers are dissatisfied with the impact of ecolabels.

MARCOD_PhD_web
The document summarizes key findings from a PhD thesis on greening the maritime industry. It discusses drivers for eco-innovations like new regulations on sulfur emissions. Case studies analyzed partnerships for developing environmental technologies and potential business models for suppliers. Regulations and partnerships were found to motivate eco-innovations, while collaborations helped match suppliers with customers and test technologies. Business models bundling installation, service, and monitoring into packages could increase supplier value by moving from product to service focus.

Cleaner shipping and ports 4 juni
- 1. Clean air in ports and port cities Clean air in ports and port cities are environmental issues getting increased attention as a result of stricter environmental regulation of emissions from ships and port equipment. In addition, we see more focus on air pollution from connecting road and rail transport. How can we meet the environmental as well as regulatory challenges in the most cost effective way and thereby create benefits for both the environment and the industry ? These issues will be discussed on a large conference in the conference chamber (Fællessalen) in the Danish Parliament (Christiansborg) on June 4th from 9.00-16.30. The conference language is English and the main focus areas are: - Air pollution from ports including ship, street and rail transport. - Regulation of pollution from port equipment and from ships in ports. - Technical solutions reducing air pollution from ports and shipping. - How Danish politicians can reduce air pollution in ports and port cities.
