چکیده
by SEYMA GUVEN KOCAK (Under the Direction of Richard Thomas Watson) ABSTRACT Maritime transportation is the most efficient and cost-effective mode of transport. With the appropriate use of advanced technology, the efficiency of the industry can be improved even further. Information systems for the maritime industry have been generally ignored by the IS community. Consequently, we introduce “Maritime Informatics” as a new stream to introduce IS scholars to the many research and practice opportunities offered by the maritime industry. Our goals are to understand the characteristics, operations, and culture of the industry, as well as some major problems that need improvement. By analyzing previous studies addressing the problems of the maritime transportation industry, we aim to develop a research agenda for information system researchers, with the end goal of creating a more efficient, safe, and ecologically sustainable maritime transportation.

متن کاملConfiguring Value with Service-Dominant Logic: the Case of Marine Informatics Technology
The purpose of this paper is to provide a theoretical framework for Maritime Informatics from a serviceoriented ecosystem view. We propose to go beyond the traditional service provider-user dyad view to provide a richer understanding of Maritime Informatics using a case study. Relying upon the ServiceDominant (S-D) logic framework, this paper presents how this service-oriented ecosystem view he...
متن کاملSupporting Decision Making in Maritime Environmental Protection with a Knowledge-based Education and Awareness Approach
In this paper we present an approach which aims to support learners in general and environmental decision makers in particular, towards effective decision making in maritime environmental pollution via education and awareness of specific maritime environmental pollution policies. We build on previous work concerning the automatic construction of multiple-choice questions from ontologies (automa...
متن کاملTowards an Understanding of Security, Privacy and Safety in Maritime Self-Reporting Systems
Global satellite navigation systems such as GPS enable precise tracking of vessels worldwide and pervasive global networks such as the Internet allow sharing of this information almost instantaneously between locations anywhere on Earth. This ability to monitor vessels globally is a topic of current debate among those concerned with national security, those who are mainly interested in safety a...
متن کاملe-MARITIME SERVICES FOR COMMUNICATION WITH CLASS AND FOR ENHANCED SAFETY, SECURITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION IN SHIPPING
e-Maritime can be considered as an extension of the e-Navigation concept currently being discussed at the International Maritime Organization (IMO). It can be construed to include e-Navigation and promotes the use of all maritime data and information, distributed by way of information and communication technologies, to facilitate maritime transportation and provide value added services. This pa...
