The document discusses scatter-gather flow control in Mulesoft. Scatter-gather sends a request message concurrently to multiple targets and aggregates the responses. It replaces the deprecated all message processor by executing routes in parallel instead of sequentially, improving efficiency. Scatter-gather collects results into a message collection. If a route fails, it sets the exception payload and throws a composite exception mapping failures to routes.
The document describes how to use a Groovy scripting component to hold a Mule flow for a period of time before processing the payload. Specifically:
1) A Groovy script uses the "sleep" method to pause the flow for 3000 milliseconds before returning the payload.
2) This Groovy component is added to a Mule flow between an inbound file endpoint and an outbound file endpoint.
3) The flow will now wait 3000 milliseconds before moving the file from the inbound to outbound location, allowing the payload to be held for a specified interval.

Enterprise content delivery networks (eCDNs) are moving content such as rich media and bandwidth-intensive files closer to end users within company networks. eCDNs consist of servers, caches, routing software, and management tools. They help improve application performance and relieve network strain. Vendors are developing techniques to cache dynamic content at network edges. Future eCDNs may cache and deliver application code, databases, and multimedia to remote offices for richer client experiences over bandwidth-constrained connections.
The document discusses the evolution and future of electronic forms (e-forms). It notes that e-forms originally aimed to replicate paper forms digitally but now enable richer user experiences and process automation. E-forms have evolved from early digital versions of paper forms to dynamic online experiences integrated with business processes. Going forward, e-forms will feature more optimized user interfaces, leverage richer digital content, and increasingly exist solely in the cloud without on-premise solutions.
IT organizations are faced with shrinking budgets and increased end user demand for better collaboration tools. As organizations create competitive positions centered on collective knowledge and resources of their workers to build better products and create effective solutions, they need tools to make those assets more efficient and effective. IT executives are continuously aiming to position IT as a business enabler rather than a cost center. To maintain that balance, IT executives are looking into solutions that let IT do more with less while remaining agile and continuing to innovate.
With the rapid proliferation of smartphones and tablets, the demand to deliver electronic forms to many people across multiple devices, both online and offline, has grown multifold. Now electronic Forms integrated with Workflow solution enables customers to automate forms based Workflow. The E-Forms with Workflow does have a "built-in" workflow engine and design tool that enables users to create process flows through a point and click GUI, assign forms to those processes, view, fill and route the forms to users and even monitor workflow operations with valuable reports. Electronic forms and workflow now operate in one elegant package.
In 2006, Adobe and IBM were the clear market leaders in e-forms. In the past few years, activities in the market have led to consolidation as well as transformation, as e-forms today are more aggressively integrated with content management and business process solutions to support internal data capture and Web self-service. The maturity of the technology over time and its future plans clearly indicates that it shall stay in the IT ecosystem for long.
This document outlines the finer elements of the technology, future directions and product & Vendor comparison. No interview has been taken from the organizations or its customer and is fully researched product with varied inputs available in Public Domain.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

igital Bunker from Vortex Devel-
opment Group is a tablet-based
forms solution that provides in-
stantaneous delivery of PDF files to multiple
stakeholders simultaneously and tracks
responses in a series of databases for
analytics. It was unveiled to local physical
suppliers at the International Bunker Indus-
try Association’s (IBIA) Annual Convention
in Gibraltar in November.
Vortex brings together a wealth of bun-
kering and software expertise. Co-founders
Jeff Mildner and Marc Gawthrop are fo-
cused on liberating the bunker industry
from the paper chase with E-Ship Safety
and E-BDN, just two of the many forms
contained within the Digital Bunker app.
Long overdue in an industry often
slow to change course, Digital Bunker
represents a glimpse into what we be-
lieve will be the new paradigm, just as
Google has replaced the encyclopedia,
the dictionary and the reference manual.
Vortex is tasked with taking delivery
documentation from a batch-processing
scenario of hand-completed paperwork
with a pen to real-time reporting via tab-
let. Digital Bunker is a functionally elegant
solution to the 100-year old problem of doc-
umenting safety checklists and fuel delivery
transactions. It will be a major shift for the
industry, but we are confident this applica-
tion has the capability to do just that, and in
the process, establish a worldwide standard.
As a newcomer to the industry, it was
surprising to learn that the administration of
paperwork in bunkering has not evolved and
kept pace with the rest of our current digi-
tal experience. It seems that nearly everyone
has a cell phone with incredible processing
power yet somehow the marine fuelling sec-
tor has been unable to replace the technology
of an ink stamp on paper (so last century) for
such an important function, the bunker deliv-
ery note (BDN). Fixing this problem was the
starting point for Vortex. Our mission was
simple: make a form that captures a wide ar-
ray of information and sends you an email
with that content, storing it all in a database.
Accomplishing that seemingly straightfor-
ward task proved to be something quite
complex and is now contained in our app.
A version of Digital Bunker has been in
development and use at Arbutus Point Marine
(Marc’s company) in the Vancouver, British
Columbia, area for the last two years. We have
shown that it is possible to get an invoice on
a buyer’s desk within two minutes of a chief
engineer’s signature on an Electronic Bunker
Delivery Note, hence the name E-BDN.
E-Ship Safety is an electronic International
Safety Guide for Oil Tankers and Terminals
(ISGOTT)-compliant, pre-bunkering check-
list for use in ports around the world. E-Ship
Safety captures global positioning system
(GPS)-tagged ship stamp photos, signa-
tures and answers to 23 ISGOTT delivery
safety questions, sending PDF files to mul-
tiple recipients simultaneously. E-Ship
Safety makes this common basic pre-deliv-
ery function electronic for the very first time.
Now available at no charge on Apple’s App
Store, Digital Bunker’s first template is E-Ship
Safety. It allows vessels, physical suppliers,
surveyors, port authorities and customers
to receive PDFs and real-time data from the
ship’s rail using an iPad or iPhone (Android
coming soon). We welcome feedback and
Future proof
As the use of cutting edge technology increasingly
becomes the ‘norm’ for business transactions, the bunker
industry remains stubbornly attached to cumbersome and
time-consuming paper-based documentation processes.
Jeff Mildner of Vortex Development Group explains
how the company is working to bring the paperwork
and commercial exchanges associated with marine fuel
deliveries and safety checklists into the digital world

field-testing Digital Bunker. We will be demonstrating the increased
efficiency, reporting capabilities and utility against traditional
paper-based bunker delivery notes’

Given today’s 24/7 global appe-
tite for information, goods and services,
you can’t help but wonder why paper-
work and volumetric calculation has not
changed much from the days of coal’s tran-
sit to oil as a source of marine propulsion.
Every day we move trillions of bits of data
all over the world at light-speed, receiving
all types of information in our smartphones
and tablets. Through the continually up-
dated versions of new technology that we’re
all immersed in, we get ever-faster com-
puters in our pockets, homes and offices.
Still today, the practice of placing a stamp
on a piece of paper remains the metric by
which a deal is authenticated for goods or ser-
vices – the humble bunker delivery note is no
exception – until now. As a newcomer to the
industry, I was surprised to learn that people
still carry out calculations based on paper ta-
bles and formulae dated from 1980. One day
in the not-too-distant future, mass flow meters
(MFMs) will be ubiquitous and traditional pa-
per-based calculations will be the exception in
an increasingly connected and digital world.
Digital Bunker is the bridge between those
two realities and serves both with the same
ease of use and familiar app-based interface.
E-BDN, scheduled to be released in early
2017, incorporates automatic API 2004 vol-
umetric and density calculations (from °API
and Temperature value inputs) replacing
1980 API Tables 6B and 54B for a more ac-
curate determination of delivered quantity.

bunker delivery notes. The GPA is looking to-
wards the future with our initiative and we will
be working together with the physical sup-
plier community to customise Digital Bunker
in Gibraltar for each of them. Based on its
ease of use, seamless integration with ex-
isting systems and similarity from one port
jurisdiction to another we believe adop-
tion will be swift in the industry. The forms
in Digital Bunker for E-Ship Safety and
E-BDN are variations on a theme; report-
ing ISGOTT and MARPOL mandated fields
while outputting PDF files that look exactly
like customers’ own traditional paper forms.
Based on the GPA’s Code of Practice, the
Gibraltar edition of Digital Bunker is a ques-
tionnaire, image and signature capture tool
that includes many data fields for reporting.
In addition to emailing a multi-page PDF file
to all stakeholders, all question responses
are tracked for customised data mining by
each participating company and the port.
Customising the app for other port
authorities is the product plan in our devel-
opment process – we have the framework
down and the software is very robust.
In addition to conventional deliveries
made by truck, barge, tanker or ex-pipe,
Digital Bunker for MFMs is 100% compliant
with the requirements of TR 48 from a paper-
work standpoint. Vortex has a reproduction
licence from SPRING Singapore for the forms
contained in TR 48 and Digital Bunker emails a
20-page PDF after clicking ‘Submit’ in the app.
We are also working with the Society
for Gas as a Marine Fuel (SGMF) on an
E-BDN for liquefied natural gas (LNG) that
has information passed to it from the re-
quired pre-bunkering E-Ship Safety form
and we will integrate these forms into Digital
Bunker, making them available world wide.
As an exercise, we have converted IBIA’s
Standard Operating Procedure for Surveyors
(Singapore edition) and turned this 19-page
PDF into an app with a checklist, signature
boxes and GPS-tagged ship stamp capture.
We hope to be able to release port-spe-
cific versions of this SOP in the near future.
The adoption of a digital solution for the
industry rests with each port authority and
their willingness to sponsor and embrace a
system. It is clear that the future of bunker-
ing will transition to the digital arena, as all
things shipping are heading into the world
of big data. The capture of so many points
of information simply can’t be done by the
traditional method of entering data into a
computer back at the office after a delivery
was conducted with a pen on paper. There’s
just no comparison to the level of speed and
comprehensive reporting that can be done
with tablets running customised software.
The main shortcoming to any digital so-
lution is the issue of connectivity. Without
a cellular or satellite connection, no soft-
ware can be considered suitable as a bunker
delivery tool. As technology races forward,
the connectivity issue will become less and
less important for all but the most remote
locations. Even today, a solution exists to
overcome this shortcoming – a data-only
satellite system positioned on the bunker
tanker, ensuring worldwide connectivity.
A key aspect of the Vortex approach
is that we provide the requisite hardware
for our software to run on. As a means of
removing the barrier to entry for companies to
participate in field tests and to help encourage
early adoption, we will provide two iPads
and a battery-powered wifi printer as part of
the ‘kit’ to go onboard each bunker tanker.
Without the right hardware, the chance for
adoption, and ultimately success is low.
As part of the subscription to their
App-as-a-Service, Vortex will also be un-
derwriting the cellular contracts for each
iPad and will facilitate the purchase, de-
livery and installation of satellite systems
(when required) for anchorages with poor
cell service, thus guaranteeing connec-
tivity from each tanker using its system.
Combining fuel consumption knowledge
and fuel delivery history is the next step in
compliance with the recently announced
International Maritime Organization (IMO)
Mandatory Fuel Consumption Data Collection
System requirement for all ships beginning in
2019. Vortex is developing a module for this in-
dependently and we will offer it free of charge
to the global shipping community by late 2017.
Establishing a software solution for con-
sumption reporting and working through
the issues before 2019 gives us plenty of
time to fine-tune a system that integrates
with other aspects of Digital Bunker. We
welcome the opportunity to work with rel-
evant partners as our services evolve.
We are in the early stages of working with
the folks at Genscape VesselTracker to in-
tegrate their database of ship details and
global ship position information into Digital
Bunker. Predictive modeling for bunkering
using information from both the E-BDN and
Genscape’s Bunker Periscope predictive
model is the logical conclusion and natural
synergy from partnering with the company.
We are also pleased to announce that
Scott Wolfe has joined the team to help
with our technology initiative. Scott is a
long time software veteran whose back-
ground is working with Fortune 500 and
Global 2000 multinational organisations.
Vortex will also be in Dubai at
Petrospot’s Middle East Bunkering
Convention (23-26 January, 2017), par-
ticipating in the MFM workshop.
It is our goal as a company to as-
sist with the transition to a digital future
in bunkering and tailor solutions to an in-
dustry in need of a paradigm shift for the
sake of efficiency, accuracy and security.
