- W2516005469 abstract "The industry of road freight transport has a tradition of little or no information sharing, bothbetween the transport actors and the customers of transport, and an overall scepticism towardsimplementation of new technologies, which historically has resulted in the business having ahigh level of information asymmetry for the end-users of transport. As the area of freighttransport is a growing sector where goods sent by road is becoming more and more frequent,more information is documented and the supply chains become increasingly complicated intheir structure. In combination, the road accidents are no longer decreasing, as more transportis done by road. If more information is shared, the road efficiency will increase, and if thegoods carried by trucks was known and digitally documented, it is possible that theemergency services would have the possibility to minimize the effects of an accident. Thepurpose of the study is to seek an understanding if it is possible to increase the informationshared between the parties of road transport by using the concept of software ecosystems,where the concept of eCall would be the platform around which a software ecosystem willevolve.The technology of eCall is a concept where a car sends information to emergency services inEurope in case of an accident about location, direction on the road and other data. The projectof I_HeERO are investigating the possibility of implementing eCall in heavy goods vehicles,buses, taxis and two wheeled vehicles in Europe. With the industry of freight transport beinglate adapters of new technology, the sharing of data about a vehicles load and location issomething the actors are sceptical towards, and it is needed to investigate the possibilitieswith eCall, and not solely the imagined drawbacks of sharing information.Based on the the Ecosystemability Assessment Method by Knauss and Hammouda (2014) thepossibility of a software ecosystem evolving around a platform of eCall is investigated andanalysed, and based on this information a general assessment of software ecosystems in roadfreight transport is concluded, stating that the possibility of a software ecosystem requiresobvious individual benefits for the freight transport actors, as these need a push in order toadapt new information technologies. It is as well found that there are many barriers towardsthe implementation of software ecosystems, but these are considered social rather thantechnical. Moreover, it is possible that legislating the information shared by the haulagecontractors and other transporters is the only way to enforce the information being shared, asmany actors only advantage is the information they possess and therefor are unwilling ofsharing, even though it would benefit the sector as a whole. If using a governmentallyinitiated software as eCall as the platform in the software ecosystem, it can be a benefit as thiskind of software often have a clear roadmap and clear legislations, but a possibledisadvantage can be the possibility of the fundamental functionality being decided upon tooearly, resulting in a limited and sluggish solution.In order to use the concept of software ecosystems, the stakeholders of freight transport arerecommended to take action. The transport organisations are advised to increase theirinteraction with software companies, enabling the possibility of shared and better software.The actors in freight transport are advised to investigate the possibilities of informationsharing and cooperation in software ecosystems. The customers of freight transport arerecommended to ask question about the transport purchased and demand information. Finally,the academia are advised to further investigate projects of information sharing in freighttransport, with a close cooperation with the industry and a clear connection to practice" @default.
