Abstract

Smart ports represent the current trend of port development. Intelligent operations reduce the daily production cost of ports, facilitate efficient production, strengthen the risk mitigation ability and comply with the requirements for long-term development. However, a systematic and scientific smart port evaluation method is missing to nail down the evaluation indicators of a smart port and enable accurate evaluation of a port’s degree of intelligence. This paper analyzes the concept of the smart port, establishes a set of smart port evaluation indicator systems, and applies a single-valued neutrosophic exponential similarity measure to port evaluation to enable quantitative evaluation of port integrity. This evaluation method is capable of decision-making in the event of incomplete, uncertain, and inconsistent information during general evaluation, opening up a new method for smart port evaluation, and acting as a helpful tool for ports to carry out improvements during actual application.

Highlights

  • More and more opportunities for international trade cooperation are emerging as the world economy integrates

  • Securing all-round and sustainable development is the key to enhancing the competitiveness of ports

  • It is of more practical significance to study and analyze smart port evaluation

Summary

Introduction

More and more opportunities for international trade cooperation are emerging as the world economy integrates. The international community is paying increasing attention to environmental protection issues, demonstrating higher sensitivity to climate change issues. All these problems have been pushing ports toward upgrading and transformation. Smart port is based on systematic, strategic and social thinking, featuring integrated application of cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, mobile internet, intelligent sensing and other next-generation information technologies to achieve all-round perception, ubiquitous interconnection, intelligent integration, deep computing, and coordinated operation and promoting organic connection and sharing of various resource elements and related parties in the port organization ecosystem, so as to eventually form a modern port that is smarter, safer, more efficient, more flexible, greener, and with strong cultural presence
