- This work was supported by an EU-Interreg project InTraDE (€1.12m out of €7.34m allocated to LJMU, 2011-2015). It developed advanced mathematical and simulation models for seaports to quantify the benefit of automated vehicles. It has informed Dublin Ferryport terminal management that investment in automation would save more than €6m over a period of 15 years from 2017; it has led to the terminal investing in automation technologies, making it the most modern terminal in the region (A. Colvin, Director of Dublin Ferryport, acolvin@dft.ie). A preliminary version of the model led to an invited speech at the IEEE conference WICT’19.
