The e-navigation strategy of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) aims to improve the safety of maritime traffic by increasing cooperation between several maritime stakeholders. The COSINUS (Bolles et al., 2014) project contributes to such a strategy by enabling an automated data exchange (observations, routes and maneuver plans) between ship-side and shore-side navigational systems, developing useful sensor fusion applications upon the new information available from data exchange and introducing new Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) to support the users of navigation systems. The project shows potential for improvement in maritime traffic safety by ensuring continuous awareness to all participants involved through sensor fusion applications, i.e. by providing all participants (mobile and stationary navigation systems) with a complete view at all times. These applications include detection of critical situations like radar shadowing areas, early and accurate prediction of potential collisions or closest point of approach (CPA) based on the exchanged routes, and improving the accuracy of radars by ensuring high quality data for obstructed or far away routes. The new HMI concepts introduced within the COSINUS project aim at highlighting critical maritime traffic situations. Thus, the users of such navigation systems supported with COSINUS facilities can easily detect such critical situations and react efficiently to avoid collisions, possible crowded areas and inefficient routes.

Przy pomocy stacji Pipe Thruster zastosowanie techniki HDD uzyskuje nowe, znacznie większe możliwości, a zakres jej wykorzystania może być znacznie rozszerzony. Dzięki wcześniejszemu oszacowaniu ryzyka wynikającego z warunków gruntowych, długości oraz średnicy wierconego otworu, możliwe jest użycie tej technologii w zupełnie nowych sytuacjach.

In the recent years, the companies performing HDD projects have significantly widened their scope of services. The drilling lengths and pipe diameters are increasing. Furthermore, drillers often take challenges and perform works in difficult soil conditions. With the conventional HDD technology, the drilling length is limited by numerous factors. Pipe diameter, axial force and available drilling torque, as well as soil conditions are crucial for its implementation. In case of an improper estimation of these factors, or unexpected external impacts, a great risk comes into question. As a result, the pipe may get stuck in the bore or crack. Thanks to Pipe Thruster, it easier to bring each project to a successful end.

The paper describes an application of agent oriented programming: an assistant program for everyday computer tasks like printing, converting, extracting etc. The assistant looks for services matching the users query, possibly delegates queries to other agents, loads new services over the net and offers its own services to other agents. We use Java as implementing language.
