Marine ndustry
in a nutshell
30,000,000 Registered VesseIs
60,000 CommerciaI VesseIs
HighIy fragmented market:
Hundreds of yacht & ship buiIders
Thousands of suppIiers

Current deficiencies in the Marine & Yachting
ndustry
Lack of innovation
Lack of customer orientation
Lack of adequate industry acquisition processes and evaluation methods
Missing competencies and focus on systems software engineering
Far too high TCO
ntegration and interoperability problems
Too many proprietary systems, too few standards
Old and inadequate business models
Lack of "Living Labs: no continuous technology testing and validation off-
board.

MARSEC-XL Foundation objectives
The MARSEC-XL Foundation established 2007 in Malta, the world's
first Marine Systems & Software Engineering Cluster of Excellence.
A science based, systematic, repeatable approach to
nnovation and Development is needed!
Hub for Business Activity
Research
Technology Transfer
Education & Training
A lacuna exists in marine industry:
Marine Systems & Software Engineering.
MARSEC11-799 MARSEC-XL Foundation 8
MARSEC11-799 MARSEC-XL Foundation 9
A sound software engineering methodology to
the R&D, prototyping and commercialization
of marine software systems.

Tying it all together
The marine commercial & pleasure craft market is highly fragmented with few
and insufficient standards:
Provide an Open Reference Architecture based on Open Source
No single strong customer organization exists to set requirements:
Build a Community
The industry becomes increasingly software-determined, however very few
players realize this!
Educate, educate, educate.
Provide success stories from other domains and create flagship projects
in the marine industry.
Many of the current deficiencies in the industry with respect to systems &
software stem from the lack of a common reference architecture:
Provide MARSSA, the Marine Systems Software Architecture as an Open
Architecture
After 3 years of baseline research and development MARSEC-XL shared their
knowledge with the MARSSA Community in February 2011...

RSS = MARine Systems Software Architecture
RSS mission: To dramatically lower the TCO and at the same time increase the quality
of all marine electronic systems by providing an open source reference architecture
facilitating full interoperability across all system components.
RSS vision: MARSSA is the de-facto standard recognized and adopted across the
marine industry for integration of all electronic systems. MARSSA is the quality enabler
facilitating continuous technology insertion.
First Community Driven Open Source Open Reference Architecture project in and for the
marine industry:
hosted by MARSEC-XL, close to 100 Contributors globally today
sle of Open Source 2011 - 1st MARSSA conference 20-21 October 2011, Malta.
Potential market: over 30 million vessels

MARSSA Governance
MARSSA is an open source project led by the
MARSSA Technical Steering Team (TST).
The governance model is based on equality and
the best practices and values of the Open
Source culture.

Views & Scenarios
n order to present MARSSA to the different
stakeholders involved, we represented
MARSSA using various view points. Each of
these views shows MARSSA from a different
angle: module view, deployment view and
publish-subscribe.
A different set of scenarios are captured and
represented by each view. Each scenario is
based on market data, regulations, base line
research, user feedback.

The MARSSA community has sculpted the MARSSA
Reference Architecture (RA). The RA was instantiated
at a technology level specifically for the demon-strator.
n this implementation each of the building blocks
identified in the MARSSA RA were implemented.
Once the demon-strator instance was completed, we
vaIidated and verified it against the MARSSA RA. t
was then approved and we proceeded to
impIementing and depIoying it on the demon-strator.
The demon-strator instance and implementation were
then used to iterativeIy improve the MARSSA RA,
forming a continuous feedback Ioop.
