  3. Part I : Project Overview

  4. The Consortium

  5. Motivation (1) Relevance of Transport & Logistics • Economical impact • 7% of the EU GDP • 5% of total EU employment • Ecological impact • ~15% of the global greenhouse gas caused by transportation • Transport-caused emissions • Increased by 50% in 2010 (compared with 1990) • Expected to double again by 2030

  6. Motivation (2) Pressing problems • Limited visibility on T&L processes and critical events hampers business network efficiency and effectiveness • Closed logistic supply chains hinders agile inter-organizational information exchange and collaboration and access for SMEs • Highly manual processes, lack of standards, legal and governmental regulations(“tons of paper”)

  7. Solution Requirements Requirement 1 Efficient support for inter-organizational collaboration and contracting in cooperative business networks Requirement 2 Seamless integration of information and data along with real-world data acquisition

  8. Platform Concept

  9. Project Structure WP Dependencies (refinement to DoW, cf. D3.1 p.14) WP 9 – FI PPP Alignment WP 10 – Management +

  10. Use Case I Perishable Goods Shipments – Fish Transport

  11. Use Case II Industrial Goods Shipment - Airfreight

  12. Use Case III End-to-end Consumer Goods Shipment (Import/Export)

  13. To-be Scenarios • Analysis of use case requirements and main challenges lead to consolidation • Clear similarities • Based on this: Development of to-be scenarios which target most of the challenges & requirements • To-be scenarios show examples for what shall be enabled by FInest

  19. Part II : Conceptual Architecture

  20. Overview Conceptual Architecture • Architecture Model • Specification of interactions • Design of core modules • Design Decisions • Backend Integration • Data Interchange • Security • Publications • R. Franklin et al. “Future Internet technology for the future of transport and logistics (invited),” in ServiceWave 2011 • Metzger, A. et al. “Predictive monitoring of heterogeneous service-oriented business networks”, SRII Global Conference, 2012 • R. Franklin et al. “Cloud Based Collaboration Platform for T&L Business Networks, 6th Int’l Scientific Symposium on Logistics, 2012

  21. Conceptual Architecture (1) Shipper Forwarder Carrier (e.g., Airline) Transport Planner … … Front EndLayer Multi-Channel Messaging (SMS, E-Mail, Social Networks) Customizable Web Portal (using Gadgets á la iGoogle) User-/Identity Mgt. & Access-Control Module Layer Back EndLayer Secure Storage & Backup Service-based System Integration IoS and IoTMonitoring Legacy Systems 3rd-party services Smart Items Legacy Systems 3rd Party Services Smart Items

  22. Conceptual Architecture (2) Notifications and request for actions Module Layer Profiles of potential business partners Business CollaborationModule (BCM) Transport execution data Final status & data of completed transport process Transport execution plan Situationsto monitor / rules(e.g., ETA of transport leg) Detected situation(e.g., SLA violation /timing violation/proof of delivery) Events about transport process E-Contracting Module(ECM) Event Processing Module(EPM) (Re-)planning trigger Information aboutactual bookingsand changes List of matching contracts(long-/short-term) Offers and demands from spot-marketplaces Transport Planning Module(TPM) Events (from IoS& Legacy: EDI etc.) Events (from IoT) Transport bookings

  23. Design Decisions (1) • Backend / Legacy • Coverage of actual execution of transport (e.g., handling of actual documents, e.g., eAWB) not part of the collaboration space • We will use existing systems (e.g., for creating AWBs / using EDI systems / marketplaces) as black-boxes and integrate them via back-end • FInest platform will observe events about the change of such documents and possibly link to those documents (but will NOT handle actual documents), i.e., similar to Cargo 2000 • Security, (Privacy) and Trustworthiness • Rely on FI-WARE GEs in “SPT” Chapter (incl. specific FInest feature requests) • Three dimensions of SPT: • Front-end (access-based) • Back-end (access-based) • Artifact-based (business entity-based) in the BCM

  24. Design Decisions (2) Transport Chain Plan (TCP) • Data Interchange Format • Basis for interchange format: Common Framework • Defined by EU projects FreightWiseand eFreight and serves as the basis for ongoing standardization efforts within GS1 • Main modelling concepts • TCP = FInest addition • TSD will be mapped to USDL ( FI-WARE) Goods Item Itinerary (GII) 0..1 planned leg 1..* Transport Execution Status (TES) Transport Execution Plan (TEP) 0..* Transport Service Description (TSD) 1..1 0..1 1..1 TEP status booked TSD

  28. GEs for Platform-Level Technologies (2) Architecture of Applications and Services Ecosystem and Delivery Framework: • FInest modules provide individual functionality and can be used independently • App/Eco GEs are used from the Customization Tools and Middleware Mgt. to provide the FInest modules as SaaS solutions • USDL • Repository • Marketplace • Registry • Mediator • Composition Editor • Composition Execution • Service description by USDL • Service provisioning and consumption through Repository, Registry • Service marketing via Marketplace • Customization through different service composition (Editor, Executor) • Orchestration and configuration by Mediator

  46. Questions regarding GEs • How are GEs are hosted and how can they be accessed? • Distribution of GE-Software (Releases via Website, Access to Version-Control, …) • Installation and Setup (Manuals will be available?) • Assure quality and scalability • Access to GEs: Restricted by user, group, … • Details to the FIWARE Test Bed? • Details to FIWARE Tools? • How to use • When finished

  47. Collaboration with FI-WARE • Short-term communication with FIWARE needed to enable efficient development based on GEs • Existing communication with FIWARE should be intensified • Use case projects are early customers of FIWARE • Our wish: More pro-active interaction highly desired • Our proposal: Establishing FIWARE User groups
