3 A Knowledge Day

4 Challenges in transport & logistics Growth, Lack of space Growth only possible with smarter ways of working Chain efficiency needs to be improved Rail, road and barge connections to port need to be improved Increase sustainability Bron: FD Interview: president-directeur Hans Smits

5 Mission: From the Largest to the Smartest and most Sustainable port Rotterdam Climate Initiative

7 Modal Shift Netherlands? EU 2007 Pocket Book Energy and Transport in Figures (annual) Source:

8 Modal Shift Port of Rotterdam?

9 Modal Shift Netherlands? Estimated Growth Port of Rotterdam 406,8 million in 2007 to 800 in million TEU in 2006 to 27 million TEU in 2020 Inland Barge Hinterland Transport from 1,7 million TEU to 8 million TEU in 2035 Source:

10 Challenges in transport & logistics Multi-Modal + Realtime Information + Integrated Supply Chain Systems = Information Overload

11 4C: Cross Chain Control Center?

12 Project Protect: Reliable and Secure Supply Chains

13 Project PILOT: Prognostic Logistics Using Sensors Source:

14 Project ECO: Efficient Chain Optimization (Inter-)national Legislation - Collecting return flows - Matching return flows with trucks / empty containers - Product design - Avoiding congestion - Social conditions Matching empty containers With return flows

15 Project: Chain Synchronization

16 Project DIPLOMA: Agent based Multi- Modal Coordination

17 How can Agents help? Two Ongoing Cases A. Post Kogeko Freight Transport B. Port of Rotterdam Barge-Terminal Coordination Research Programs NL: Transumo NL: DEAL NL: Connekt agents state of the art 2002 Merba

18 Case A : Real Time orders at Post Kogeko Freight Chain

19 Case A : Real Time orders at Post Kogeko Freight Chain I can pick up cargo x against cost z My planner agents proposes to send truck P to pick up urgent cargo.. Sounds like a good plan I ll confirm Get me out of here! Ik I can kan pick lading up x cargo afhalen x tegen against kosten cost y

20 Case B : Terminal Barge Coordination Port of Rotterdam Coordinating Barge-Terminal visits around the Rotterdam Port Source: Approach II: part of the Transumo Diploma project

21 Multi-Agent based solution Multi agent platform appointments Barge operator Terminal operator Terminal operator Barge operator September HICL2008

23 Transition: Complexity?

24 Transition: Trialability?

25 Transition: Relative Advantage Observability?

26 Transition: Compatibility?
