Abstract:
New digital Industry 4.0 solutions and smart applications are being adopted in many industries, also in the most advanced ports in the world. Still, it is not clear in which directions digitalization in ports will develop in the future. Building on the research literature and the state-of-the-art in major container ports, this research characterizes smart ports and Port 4.0 with three key focus areas: automation, sustainability and collaboration. Following the scenario building theory, this article constructs four alternative scenarios for future smart ports and shows the ways in which these alternative scenarios will lead to different prioritization of digital innovations between automation, sustainable development and cooperation issues. This will have a big impact on what digitalization in ports will be like in the future.

Abstract:
Innovations can help ports become smarter and more effective and differentiate themselves from competitors. This study aims to explore the current state of innovations and smart technologies at Brazilian ports. The study sampled sixteen ports, representing 70% of port movements in Brazilian public ports in 2021. This is an exploratory and descriptive field study involving qualitative analysis. The results show that the surveyed ports are seeking strategies to innovate. Only one of the surveyed ports had a registered patent. Half of all ports had agreements with educational/research institutions, companies, or other ports for developing innovations. By contrast, no port engaged in technology transfer contracts with educational/research institutions, companies, or other ports. Few surveyed ports collaborated with HUBs, laboratories, or innovation centres. The three most widely used smart technologies at the surveyed ports were cloud computing, automated systems, and drone technologies. This study shows that Brazilian ports are undergoing a transformation process, but they find themselves in different stages of maturity regarding the appropriation and development of new technologies. New technologies are still incipient for some ports, while others have yet to adopt them. For example, only a few surveyed ports used smart technologies such as the Internet of Things, blockchain technology, or automated systems. Innovations and the inclusion of new technologies can generate benefits, but they require time and financial resources.

Abstract:
Buhar makinesinin bulunmasıyla dünyada başlayan sanayileşme süreci, yaşamı kolaylaştıran yeni buluşlarla birlikte, dünya nüfusunun ve refah düzeyinin yükselmesine, insanların tüketim mallarına olan talebinin artmasına sebep olmuştur. Gelişen pazar ihtiyaçları, deniz ulaştırmasını etkilemiş, gemiler taşınacak yüklere göre değişim göstermiş ve 1960’lardan itibaren limanlar geleneksel yükleme-boşaltma işlevlerinin ötesinde, bölgelerinde kurulan endüstri alanlarının ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak üzere gelişmiş, 1980’lerden itibaren tedarik zincirinin önemli bağlantı noktaları olmuş, 2010’lardan itibaren ise dijitalleşerek nesnelerin interneti teknolojisiyle farklı kaynaklardan gelen verileri işleyerek, tedarik zincirine değer katan küresel iş birliği platformlarına dönüşmüşlerdir. Günümüzde akıllı liman, Liman 4.0 gibi kavramların ortaya konduğu denizcilik sektörünün rekabetçi ortamında, limanların dijital teknoloji uygulamalarına yatırım yaparak dijital altyapılarını güçlendirmesi operasyonların hızı ve verimliliğini artırmak bakımından önemlidir. Bu kavramlar ilk olarak Almanya’da Hamburg, Hollanda’da Rotterdam ve Belçika’da Antwerp limanlarında ortaya konarak uygulamaya geçmiş, zamanla dünyanın farklı yerlerinde birçok limanın dijital teknolojilere ve otonom sistemlere yatırım yaparak bu teknolojileri uygulamasıyla örnekleri çoğalmış ve limanlar arasında veri paylaşımını esas alan küresel veri ağları oluşturulmaya başlanmıştır. Çalışmada, Türkiye’de dijital teknoloji uygulamalarına önem veren limanlar Asya Port, DP World Yarımca, Q Terminals Antalya ve Mersin Uluslararası Limanı (MIP) olarak tespit edilmiş, bu limanların dijital tekoloji uygulamaları araştırılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, dijital dönüşüme önem veren Türkiye’deki limanların kullandığı dijital teknoloji uygulamalarını tespit etmek ve dünyadaki gelişmiş limanların geldiği dijital teknoloji düzeyi ile bir karşılaştırma yapabilmektir.

Abstract:
Maritime transportation represents a significant part of international cargo transportation and ports need to be in constant evolution to remain competitive. Applying intelligence to the port's sectors turns possible to increase their efficiency. To facilitate the process of intelligence application in ports and terminals, a roadmap was structured. Through a literature review 9 steps for the roadmap were defined: definition of the elements, survey of smart practices, establishment of the desired state of smartness, analysis of the current state, selection of the tools, characterization of the intelligence levels, delimitation of the deadlines, cost analysis, and selection of the actors involved.

Abstract:
<span lang="EN-US">Ports are currently competing fiercely for capital and global investments in order to improve revenues, mostly by improving performance and lowering labor costs. Smart ports are a fantastic approach to realize these elements since they integrate information and communication technologies within smart applications, ultimately contributing to port management improvement. This leads to greater performance and lower operational expenses. As a result, several ports in Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America have gone smart. However, there are a lot of critical factors to consider when automating port operations, such as greenhouse gas emissions, which have reached alarming proportions. The purpose of this study is to define the most essential tasks conducted by smart ports, such as the smart ship industry, smart gantry and quayside container cranes, transport automation, smart containers, and energy efficiency. Furthermore, it gives a model of the smart port concept and highlights the critical current technologies on which the ports are based. Each technology’s most significant contributions to its development are noted. This technology is compared to more traditional technologies. It is hoped that this effort would pique the curiosity of fresh researchers in this sector.</span>

Abstract:
Abstract. The awareness of preserving the environment and the tendency to apply the concept of "smart" and "green" ports have increased during the last decade of the twenty-first century to prevent further pollution, whether inside the ports or in the hinterland. The researchers studied the experiences of several ports in the field of environmental preservation and transformation into smart green ports and achieved real environmental protection using modern technological techniques. Researchers studied the current environmental situation of Alexandria port and conducted a comparative study with several international ports to identify the gap that needed to be filled to reach a set of practical proposals for an actual application of the concept of smart green ports in Alexandria port. Sustainability is no longer a luxury but rather a strategic issue as the shipping industry has moved in the direction in recent years and has begun to take advantage of geospatial data and artificial intelligence to achieve the goal of a green port. Geospatial technology tools can be used in smart green ports in various ways to improve efficiency, safety, and sustainability.This paper explores the use of geospatial technology tools in smart green ports to improve efficiency, safety, and sustainability. The paper discusses various ways in which geospatial technology tools can be employed, including real-time tracking of vessels, optimizing berth allocation, monitoring air and water quality, managing waste, predicting maintenance requirements, and planning emergency response procedures. By leveraging these tools, ports can reduce their environmental impact and improve their overall performance. The paper concludes that geospatial technology tools have significant potential for enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of Smart green ports.

Abstract:
Kurzfassung Organisatorische Transformation und digitale Technologien verwandeln Überseehäfen in sogenannte Smart Ports. Diese optimieren Lieferketten, fördern Prosperität und stärken die Resilienz, ermöglichen aber auch tiefe Einblicke in Lieferbeziehungen und wirtschaftliche Abhängigkeiten. Kompetitive Kollaboration prägt die Smart Ports, denn diese sind nur erfolgreich, wenn sie unterschiedliche Akteure, die miteinander auch im Wettbewerb stehen, vernetzen und integrieren. Dies stellt im aktuellen geoökonomischen Umfeld eine besondere Herausforderung dar, wenn ordnungspolitische Wettbewerber eingebunden werden sollen. Deutschlands Wirtschaftskraft ist von maritimem Transport abhängig, doch Smart Ports beeinflussen Berlins internationale Politik bislang kaum. Der Beitrag entwickelt deshalb in einem 5-Punkte-Plan einen deutschen Smart-Ports-Ansatz, um dieses dynamische Handlungsfeld mitgestalten zu können.

Abstract:
Purpose: The fourth industrial revolution has pushed companies, and even seaports, to adapt the way they operate, to remain competitive in the marketplace. Thus, ports are going from analog to digital, and are on their way to achieving the status of smart ports. So, the purpose of this paper is to analyse what is already known about smart ports.Design/methodology/approach: A systematic literature review was conducted to identify the contributions of Industry 4.0 in seaport logistics (using the PRISMA method), based on studies present in the SCOPUS and Web of Science databases, both at the bibliometric and content level.Findings: Through this method it was possible to identify the most used technology of industry 4.o in the smart ports context, the benefits, and challenges of the digital transformations in seaports, and also the world’s smartest port cities. Curiously, from the universe of studies found, few articles are concerned about the impacts of smart ports on the human factor and on the cities and municipalities where the port is located.Originality: This study presents contributions both at the theoretical level (which increases knowledge about the reality of some of the ports considered smart), and at the practical level (which aims to help/encourage other ports to start/continue to become increasingly smart.

Abstract:
Nowadays, the denomination of “smart” is associated with several production and management devices and to logistics and distribution, too. Thus, this qualification is used in different application fields. All of them are different and diverse, but the most important common characteristics of these devices or Smart Systems are based on their novel and more efficient way of working. The smart trend is consolidated in the port environment, too. The ports’ need to become more intelligent is modifying their own operations. Therefore, this paper includes an analysis of Spanish Port System, in order to evaluate its ports, considering the new concept called “Smart Port”. Some indicators and measure variables are defined, to allow for quantifying technical items. These items—both quantitative and qualitative ones—which reflect, in the most objective and complete way possible, the adaptation and achievement of characteristics and objectives associated with the Smart Port concept in all ports were studied, in order to obtain an index of Smart Ports that allows us to calculate the ranking of the Spanish Smart Ports. Considering the analysis of the Smart Port concept and its current and future trends, it has been determined that the development of a port must be based on the digitalization, on use of ICT and on automation of port processes.
