Project DOME (Distributed Open Marketplace for Europe)
Europe
The DOME (Distributed Open Marketplace for Europe Cloud and Edge Services) project aims to become Europe’s trusted access point for cloud services, bringing together stakeholders from different sectors and countries, including infrastructure and platform providers, service integrators, certification bodies and customers, into a single, cohesive network. The vision of the project is to optimize existing practices and deliver a seamlessly integrated suite of services across national boundaries, facilitating digital transformation for enterprises and public organizations.
IDOM’s participation in DOME is focused on leveraging the project’s extensive capabilities to revolutionize the port logistics sector, transforming the critical nodes that are ports into digital innovation hubs. IDOM will introduce innovative solutions to improve efficiency, sustainability and connectivity in port operations through digital twin technologies to transform ports into digital innovation hubs.
Thus, IDOM’s efforts have focused on developing the PaaSPort4.0 Platform (Open Innovation Sandbox Platform): for the creation of new services that connect port and innovative communities in order to facilitate the creation of new value-added digital services (Smart Services). This will help to consolidate ports as port innovation hubs by offering data as a service and technology.
This will facilitate the evolution of the sector towards services based on predictive modelling to provide e.g. prediction of vessel arrival/departure time and manoeuvring priorities, or services aimed at providing predictions of the time of unloading/departure of an import container before the vessel unloading operation starts, all of which will improve port logistics operations and provide better information for planning related services.
