  • Telenet Communications Corp
    The user's role in connecting to a value added network Early next year data will start flowing at 56,000 bits a second over the circuits of a unique nationwide common carrier service Richard B. Hovey called a value added network. This new approach Telenet Communications Corp. to data communications combines old and new Washington, D.C. transmission facilities and adds to them a form of intelligence to improve the performance. The value added network (VAN) is different from present data transmission services and from private data networks in both the enhanced and extensive offerings to users and the sophisticated technology it employs. The technology, called packet switching, makes it possible for the value added carrier—the implementer and operator of the VAN—to provide any user, large or small, with the kind of fast-response, error-free, low-cost-per- transaction data transmissions now available only to companies that have invested in their own large private networks. In essence, the value added carrier (VAC) takes advantage of the substantial economies of scale re- sulting from one very large network— fully utiliz- ing such expensive resources as transmission lines and concentration equipment by sharing the net- work among the VAN'S subscribers. The VAC passes on a portion of the consequent savings to the indi- vidual user-subscribers through a tariff charge based mainly on traffic volume. Beyond the simple economics, leasing existing communications facilities allows the carrier to ob- tain just as much transmission capacity for each lo- cation as is required by the traffic load. This pro- vides the flexibility to adapt quickly to subscriber traffic and geographical demands, and permits the incorporation of new transmission offerings—such as satellites and AT&T'S Dataphone Digital Service- as they become available.

  • Eastern Canada Ports Battle for Mega-Ship Calls Peter Ford, Principal, Skyrock Advisors, LLC, and Dr
    Analysis: Eastern Canada ports battle for mega-ship calls Peter Ford, principal, SkyRock Advisors, LLC, and Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue, professor of global studies & geography, Hofstra University May 23, 2018 3:59PM EDT The Port of Montreal is the largest on Canada's east coast. [Photo credit: Port of Montreal.] Every new terminal or port development has risks, particularly in a mature market with established stakeholders. The risk can be mitigated if container volumes have a pronounced upward trend, but the financial crisis of 2007-2008 has shifted growth expectations closer to the range of 2 to 3 percent annual growth rate at the global level, but around 5 percent for the North American East Coast. Still, these figures are subject to caution considering growing trade contentions as well as technological changes in global manufacturing and supply chains with the outsourcing and offshoring model being reconsidered. Ocean carriers have responded to this environment by unprecedented industry consolidation, with more merger and acquisition activity happening in the last three years than in the decade preceding, and then further consolidating into mega-alliances with lines focusing on larger vessels to create scale economies and reduce slot costs. Many shipping lines are also involved in container terminal operations with various concession and ownership schemes. 1. All is not quiet on the East Coast front The Canadian East Coast has been a very stable market in the last 50 years with established ports, mainly Montreal and Halifax, assuming dominance. While Montreal experienced a growth relatively on par with the US East Coast, the volumes handled by Halifax barely changed in the last 20 years but have recently shown sign of upward momentum due to new services.

This began with point-to-point communication between mainframe computers and terminals, expanded to point-to-point connections between computers and then early research into packet switching. Packet switched networks such as ARPANET, Mark I at NPL in the UK, CYCLADES, Merit Network, Tymnet, and Telenet, were developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s using a variety of protocols. The ARPANET in particular led to the development of protocols for internetworking, where multiple separate networks could be joined together into a network of networks. In 1982 the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) was standardized and the concept of a world-wide network of fully interconnected TCP/IP networks called the Internet was introduced.

  • Study of U.S. Inland Containerized Cargo Moving Through Canadian and Mexican Seaports
    Study of U.S. Inland Containerized Cargo Moving Through Canadian and Mexican Seaports July 2012 Committee for the Study of U.S. Inland Containerized Cargo Moving Through Canadian and Mexican Seaports Richard A. Lidinsky, Jr. - Chairman Lowry A. Crook - Former Chief of Staff Ronald Murphy - Managing Director Rebecca Fenneman - General Counsel Olubukola Akande-Elemoso - Office of the Chairman Lauren Engel - Office of the General Counsel Michael Gordon - Office of the Managing Director Jason Guthrie - Office of Consumer Affairs and Dispute Resolution Services Gary Kardian - Bureau of Trade Analysis Dr. Roy Pearson - Bureau of Trade Analysis Paul Schofield - Office of the General Counsel Matthew Drenan - Summer Law Clerk Jewel Jennings-Wright - Summer Law Clerk Foreword Thirty years ago, U.S. East Coast port officials watched in wonder as containerized cargo sitting on their piers was taken away by trucks to the Port of Montreal for export. At that time, I concluded in a law review article that this diversion of container cargo was legal under Federal Maritime Commission law and regulation, but would continue to be unresolved until a solution on this cross-border traffic was reached: “Contiguous nations that are engaged in international trade in the age of containerization can compete for cargo on equal footings and ensure that their national interests, laws, public policy and economic health keep pace with technological innovations.” [Emphasis Added] The mark of a successful port is competition. Sufficient berths, state-of-the-art cranes, efficient handling, adequate acreage, easy rail and road connections, and sophisticated logistical programs facilitating transportation to hinterland destinations are all tools in the daily cargo contest.

  • Revisiting Port Capacity: a Practical Method for Investment and Policy Decisions
    Revisiting Port Capacity: A practical method for Investment and Policy decisions Ioannis N. Lagoudis Head of R&D, XRTC Ltd, Business Consultants 95 Akti Miaouli Str., 18538, Piraeus, Greece & Adjunct Faculty, University of the Aegean – Department of Shipping trade and Transport 2A Korai Str., 82100, Chios, Greece and James B. Rice, Jr. Deputy Director, MIT – Center for Transportation and Logistics 1 Amherst Street, Second Floor,Cambridge, MA 02142 Abstract The paper revisits port capacity providing a more holistic approach via including immediate port connections from the seaside and the hinterland. The methodology provided adopts a systemic approach encapsulating the different port terminals along with the seaside and hinterland connections providing a holistic estimation of port capacity. Capacity is defined with the use of two dimensions; static and dynamic. Static capacity relates to land availability or in other words the available space for use. Dynamic capacity is determined by the available technology of equipment in combination to the skill of available labor. With the presentation of a case study from a container terminal the practical use of this methodology is illustrated. Based on the data provided by the terminal operator the results showed that there is still available space to be utilised at a static level and also room more improvement at a dynamic level. The benefits stemming from the above methodology are multidimensional with the key ones being the flexible framework adjusted to the needs of each port system for measuring capacity, the productivity estimation of the different business processes involved in the movement of goods and people and the evaluation of the financial performance of the different business units and the port as a whole.

  • From the Port of Prince Rupert to the Review Panel Re: Written Submission for the Milton Logistics Hub Project Hearing
    PR I NCE RUPERT PORT AUTHORITY UNKI NG A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITY May 24,2019 Ms. Lesley Griffiths, Panel Chair c/o CEAA 160 Elgin Street Ottawa, ON K1AOH3 Dear Ms. Griffiths: We are writing to express our support for CN's plans to build the Milton Logistics Hub. The Port of Prince Rupert is a Canadian gateway for intermodal imports and exports to the Asia Pacific and is serviced exclusively by CN's rail network. The proposed Milton Logistics Hub· represents the supply chain infrastructure that is vital to ensure the fluidity of goods between markets. The Greater Toronto Hamilton Area (GTHA) is nearing capacity in terms of existing intermodal facilities. CN's $250 million investment will significantly improve the capacity, velocity, reliability and market reach for shippers in the Ontario market. Container volumes destined for CN's Brampton intermodal yard through Prince Rupert have grown 72.5% from 61,041 twenty-foot equivalents (TEUs) in 2015 to 105,290 TEUs in 2018. As Prince Rupert's Fairview Container Terminal moves through its next expansion to increase capacity to 1.8 million TEUs by 2022, Canada requires corresponding expansions of inland terminal capacity in order to accommodate growth in container volumes. The Milton intermodal terminal will provide the growing region of southern Ontario with much needed inland terminal capacity to support containerized imports of consumer products, auto parts, electronics and retail goods. Exporters of food and agricultural products, equipment, machinery, chemicals and metals from across the GTHA will also benefit from additional terminal capacity. Congestion at the Brampton intermodal yard has an impact on the terminal dwell time of containers bound for Toronto.
