The mission of the ATOS project is to significantly improve the reliability and operational efficiency of Onboard Ship Systems (OSS) by addressing the challenges associated with fault detection and resolution in complex maritime environments. This is achieved by developing advanced methodologies that combine human-in-the-loop iterative fault localization with computer-assisted troubleshooting techniques.
By leveraging the expertise of human operators alongside automated algorithms, the project aims to create a robust framework for accurately identifying the root causes of system anomalies. This integrated approach enhances the precision of fault localization and facilitates timely interventions, thereby minimizing potential risks to the ship, crew, and passengers.
Furthermore, the ATOS project seeks to establish semi-automatic troubleshooting workflows that draw from documented procedures and domain knowledge. These workflows empower operators to quickly implement effective solutions, ensuring that operational capabilities are maintained even in the face of unexpected challenges.
Ultimately, the mission of ATOS is to foster a safer and more resilient maritime operational environment by drastically reducing fault resolution times, enhancing the decision-making process for operators, and contributing to the overall advancement of technology in the naval domain. Through these efforts, the project aspires to set new standards for reliability and efficiency in OSS, paving the way for innovative solutions that can adapt to the complexities of modern maritime operations.
Human-in-the-loop Fault Localization enhances the reliability of OSSs by integrating human expertise with automated algorithms, allowing for faster and more accurate fault detection, which is crucial for safety in complex maritime environments.
Computer Assisted Troubleshooting streamlines fault resolution by using semi-automatic workflows and machine-readable procedures, enabling operators to quickly implement effective solutions and enhance operational efficiency in maritime environments.
The ATOS project team is a multidisciplinary group of experts from Fincantieri and the University of Milano-Bicocca. They combine their knowledge in engineering, computer science, and maritime operations to develop innovative solutions for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of Onboard Ship Systems.
The ATOS project is funded through Innovation Funds of the ICSC National Research Centre for High Performance Computing, Big Data and Quantum Computing.
