Since the academic year 2019-2020, the Department of Digital Systems and the Inst. of Informatics and Telec. of NCSR “Demokritos” have joined forces offering a new MSc programme on Artificial Intelligence. This is a Greek programme for the time being, so the published information that you can find in the website is in Greek.
The goal of the AMINESS project is to contribute in the safety, management and monitoring of the sea environment and the Aegean Sea in particular.
Reducing the possibility of ship accidents in the Aegean Sea is important to all economic, environmental, and cultural sectors of Greece. Oil spill cleanups can cost over 1 billion Euros, whereas accidents involving water soluble cargos would result in irrevocable changes to the Aegean ecosystem. Despite an increase in traffic, there are no national-level monitoring policies and ships formulate routes according to their best judgment. However, to reduce their own financial risk, shipping companies would directly benefit from a system that can reduce the possibility of an accident involving their own ship.
