Events
Ulysses Systems 2024 Events closed the second quarter of the current year with two culminating events. The Posidonia exhibition week and the Digital Ship Webinar, Áchieving organisational digital competency in shipping’.
2024 October Landings
Our October Landings refer to salient events that took place during October 2024:
- Ulysses Systems in Efoplistis magazine
- October 16-18, Ulysses Systems Annual User Conference in Chios
- The Launch of Ulysses Systems Web-based Maritime Applications Platform
- Celebration of @Exmar Ship management and @ J.T. Essberger 20 year anniversaries with Ulysses Systems Task Assistant® Software
- Diwali 2024
Ulysses Systems in Efoplistis Magazine
It has been an honour for Ulysses Systems, and we are indeed very happy that Dimitris Lyras, our founder, discussed Information Technology in Efoplistis Magazine, October issue, in the article “Shipping IT needs the Greek spirit”.
Efoplistis is a prestigious Greek language publication, so our Greek friends and audience will have the opportunity to enjoy a caring and serious analysis of the industry’s software needs.
Briefly, for our non-Greek speaking friends and audience, the article asserts that future software developments will contribute in a major way to the further success of Greek Shipping if the Greek spirit prevails. In explaining why, Dimitris explores the analogies between historic merchant shipping and modern IT in order to bring into relief the optimum positions for the pioneers in both industries.
October Landings
October landings especially refer to our dear and honoured clients and partners who made it to Chios for Ulysses Systems Annual Users Conference, 16-18 October.
This year, we launched the new Ulysses Systems Web-based Maritime Applications Platform. And we showed the development speed of our new solutions and new features hosted by the new platform: We, therefore, dare to say “We can realize any software feature required by our clients at a fraction of the effort required by current development methods.“
20 years with Ulysses Systems Task Assistant®
Thank you Exmar, Thank you J.T.E for rewarding us with 20 years of custom.
These 20 precious years having passed, we now pledge to justify your investment and achieve your high standards 20 years going forward.
Thank you again for the trust, the reciprocal value, the invaluable friendship and our common trajectory towards software excellence.
Diwali 2024
To our invaluable colleagues at Ulysses Systems Mumbai Office and to our dear friends, clients and seafarers celebrating Diwali, we wish auspicious and happy closing of Diwali festivities.
Farewell Posidonia 2024!
Farewell Posidonia 2024! Posidonia 2024 proved again that it is a true international event that puts Greece in the centre of Maritime Industry. Demonstrating, as President of the Union of Greek Shipowners | Ένωσις Ελλήνων Εφοπλιστών, Melina Travlos said, “the responsibility, resolve, realism and cool headedness of the Greek Shipping Community in keeping sea routes open and all nations provided with goods that ensure our daily lives in a safe and environmentally sustainable way”.
For those of our readers who enjoy statistics: 138 countries exhibited at Posidonia 2024. 32.527 visitors attended and the exhibitors numbered 2.038!
So now, we look forward to the next Posidonia Events in 2026, where we believe the prediction about IT in Greece by our founder, Dimitris Lyras will be as pertinent as it was this year.
Read more about this in our newsletter: The Future of Information Technology
AMMITEC Booth 1530
At this year’s Posidonia, AMMITEC Booth 1530 was livelier than ever. Friendship, encounters and technology discussions reaffirmed the bonding among AMMITEC members.
We are most grateful to our AMMITEC hosts and our booth neighbours, Algo Systems, CyberOwl, M2Intelligence, Fortinet. And we also thank our partners for VesselMan and DNV GL Training joining us at the booth.

Ulysses @ Posidonia 2024
“Powering ahead”, the theme for Posidonia 2024 coined by Theodore Vokos, Posidonia Managing Director, is inspiring and encapsulates Ulysses Systems vision for the present and future.
As a result, at Posidonia 2024, Ulysses Systems presented new technology and explained the importance of:
#Goal modelling that joins your applications and makes them infinitely extensible
#Email integration that knows you, your department goals and finds you your e-mails. Watch the explainer video that follows.

Posidonia Exhibition Week
Monday, 4 June, the Posidonia 2024 Exhibition opened with the greatest participation of participants ever. And with portentous messages and a great video. This sobering, almost science-fiction rendering of mathematical models, data projections was researched and compiled by the by the World Maritime University, the UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) (UNCTAD) and the The World Bank in cooperation with the Union of Greek Shipowners.
Melina Travlos, President of the Union of Greek Shipowners | Ένωσις Ελλήνων Εφοπλιστών summed up the video: “This is what our world, our planet would be like, without shipping: denervated , disconnected, deconstructed”
With these words Melina Travlos absolutely convincingly encapsulated the meaning of the scientific projection “Shipping Moves the World” for all of us, citizens of the world.
She then expanded on the responsabilities of the shipping community and our indeptedness to our seafarers who keep thing going 24/7.
And most especially on the reponsibility, resolve, realism and cool headedness of the Greek Shipping Community in keeping sea routes open and all nations provided with goods that ensure our daily lives in a safe and environmentally sustainable way. Melina Travlos speech here in Greek:
Digital Ship Webinar
Digital Ship Webinar, May 14, 2024.
“Every shipping company wants to continuously improve its use of digital technology.” Dimitris Lyras
An impressive trio of shipping software experts speak about ‘Achieving organisational digital competency in shipping’.
- What does good organisational digital competency look like.
- How does it break down? And what are the ways to achieve it?
Click on the image to watch Giampiero Soncini, director of Oceanly, Dimitris Lyras, CEO of Ulysses Systems, and David Levy, CMO of OrbitMI, discuss the following on YouTube:

Digital Ship Webinar, March 7, “Developments with maritime digital modelling in Greece” with Panteleimon Pantelis, COO at Ulysses Systems. The webinar is one of three showing how maritime digital modelling is currently being done in Norway, Greece and in Germany. Read more about this excellent webinar here
Digital Ship Webinar, February 20 ‘Making software work better for real shipping processes’, with Karl Jeffery. Karl Jeffery’s guests were Dimitris Lyras, director of Paralos Maritime and also founder of Ulysses Systems and Samuel Jones, head of application management with TORM. The webinar was successful and fun with both speakers regaling us with thought-provoking ideas.
The Vessel Performance Information Forum event VPi Athens, 27 February, at the Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso was popular, productive and valuable. Personalities from maritime and software illuminated crucial aspects of vessel performance optimisation. And industry experts from Coach Solutions, VAF Instruments, and Vessel Performance Solutions delved into how the future of vessel performance management is shaping up!
Developments with maritime digital modelling in Greece
The Digital Ship webinar ‘Developments with maritime digital modelling in Greece” with Nancy Dandolos, Commercial Director of Signal Group in S. Europe and Panteleimon Pantelis, COO, Ulysses Systems was a treat. Because both Nancy Dandolos and Panteleimon Pantelis were so like-minded regarding maritime industry software needs and shipowners painpoints.
Why modelling?
Because modelling implements technology around core shipping industry goals and processes. This is, in fact, what ship owners and ship managers expect. Both speakers advocated modelling that can bring together all the information a company is privy to and from any source as essential assistance in achieving economic goals. And described ways digital modelling tools can bridge the gap which currently exist between systems and can solve long existing problems.
Among the topics Nancy and Pantelis clarified was AI as a tool, both agreeing that AI is not a solution in itself.
Another question answered was the difference between modelling and standardization.
Panteli’s reply was illuminating. Here we will mention that a solution, which can model Spares Management processes gives even greater value to standardization. But It’s worth watching the full session including the Q&A session here.

2023 Digital Ship Conferences
Digital Ship events are always important industry events and the 2023, Digital Ship Conferences were no exception. Befittingly, Ulysses Systems is keen to be in the midst of shipping industry technological debates. As a result, this year Ulysses was a proud participant of the Athens and Hamburg conferences.
Digital Ship Athens, 27 April 2023, was a high point among shipping events this year. The discussions ‘Digital Integration in Shipping’ stirred up a great deal of interest. Panelists Theodore Ioannou (Bernard Schulte), Dimitris Marselos (COSCO Shipping Lines), Georgios Tsivgoulis (Thenamaris) and Dr. Antonios Lalechos (TMS Dry fleet) brought their experience and insights to the afternoon debate mediated by Dimitris Lyras, (Ulysses Systems founder).
Happy to share news from the Digital Ship Hamburg Conference 2023! The first panel of the day was moderated by Dimitris Lyras, our founder. And Johann Meyer of Columbia Shipmanagement, Jan Solle of Fraunhofer CML, Giampiero Soncini of Oceanly Srl, and Nils Aden of Harren & Partner were the panelists. Read the report here.
2023 Autumn Events Calendar
Not unusually, at the end of the summer with its harvest moons, our 2023 autumn events calendar gets busy. Ulysses Systems attended two conferences on the very first days of September, taking place in Mykonos and Oinousses respectively. And 14th September was an exciting date, as Ulysses participated at the Digital Ship/Vessel Performance Webinar on new technology tools. Then, on September 28, Dimitris Lyras speaks about UI renderings and human cognition at the CHIGREECE 2023 International Conference. Most importantly, on the 3rd and 4th October we meet with our honoured clients for our Annual User Conference.
2023 Annual User Conference, October 3-4

The goal of this eminent forum and bi-annual event, is to present innovation and break-throughs in human and computer interactions. CHIGreece 2023 invites the Greek research community and other researchers from Greece, Cyprus and abroad, to present and disseminate their work.
At the CHIGREECE 2021 Conference, Dimitris Lyras, Founder of Ulysses Systems presented the cognitive and usability aspects of user intefaces. At this year’s event, he will speak about relating user interfaces to modelling. And also about how abstracted renderings can suit abstracted processes.
The question is “Can generalized renderings describe generalized processes?”
Also, “Can workflows provide more meaningful visuals to distinguish a simple sequential action from a high consequence action”
Then, “Can we generalise high consequence actions in workflows in a visual sense by providing dynamic decision support”.
Most
importantly, “Can we generalise the visuals of high level decision
support and not depend on laborious configurations. Nor depend on
customisations of workflows?”
And no less importantly, “Can we compare workflows and group them according to generalised business criteria?”
Vessel performance Digital Tools Webinar, 14th September 2023
Vessel performance Digital Tools Webinar, 14th September 2023, is the first of three webinars exploring what can be achieved through a composable and model driven approach to developing digital technology.

So, if you have the time, take the opportunity to learn more about a model driven approach to integration. Meet friends and make new ones at these highly recommended webinar events.
Isalos.net – HELMEPA, Maritime Sustainability Camp
Isalos.net and HELMEPA Maritime Sustainability Camp bring together three generations of Shipping Industry experts in beautiful Oinousses for three days, September 1-3. The goal is to promote the sustainability of the environment, of the seas and of business. Making a living in a sustainable way does not necessitate the downgrading of our living standards. Rather we need to approach shipping and sustainability with caring and common sense.
6th Mare Forum Mykonos, September 1
6th Mare Forum Mykonos , September 1, is the round table conference that brings together a cross-section of the marine industry. Shipping Executives, Ship-owners, Ship-managers, Charterers, Traders, Capital providers, Energy Executives, Regulators, Maritime Lawyers, Consultants, Shipbuilders and repair managers, Classification Societies, Press, Shipping services providers, and Entrepreneurs.
AI without the hype. All the professionals mentioned are stakeholders who are keen to realistically assess the contribution of AI in Shipping.
Parenting Shipping. Those of us who are parents know how important it is to instill social skills in our children. And we realise our task is to promote their individuality and unique talents within a community. So perhaps this aspect of parenting is a good way to approach the shipping enterprise’s needs in today’s world.
Digital Ship Athens Conference
Digital Ship Athens Conference takes place twice a year and the recent conference, Thursday 27th April, was the Spring Event. An exciting one it was, with lively exchanges on digital integration during the afternoon session. We were glad to be there, taking part and enjoying the debates.
Integration in Shipping
Due to the interest in integration shown at the recent DS Hamburg Conference, a panel discussion was dedicated to integration in shipping. Panellists Theodore Ioannou, Dr. Antonios Lalechos, Dimitris Marselos, and Georgios Tsivgoulis provided valuable insights on the topic.
We are happy to present a brief report of the main takeaways from the various discussion threads.
Integration is far more fundamental than is widely discussed
The basic consensus that emerged was summed up by Dimitris Lyras, Ulysses Systems founder, and panel discussion moderator. “The discussion revealed that the problem of integration is far more fundamental than is widely discussed”.
An abundance of small software applications
The experts on the panel referred to an abundance of small software applications.
In other words, the marine enterprise uses far more small software applications than we are currently aware of. And these specialized applications cover processes that require special attention. This, especially, applies to machinery monitoring, voyage fuel consumption monitoring.
The, there are the other solutions are positioned between PMS and Condition Based Maintenance, and others are commercial operations solutions. However, they are not properly integrated into the enterprise IT ecosystem, and this is a huge problem. Dr. Antonis Lalechos (TMS Dry fleet) mentioned how lack of integration makes users biased towards some software at the expense of other software. The reason for this is that managers prefer the tools that serve them best. Integration, then, would solve the problem by helping them use the software they need without neglecting other software the enterprise needs. George Tsivgoulis (Thenamaris) very interestingly touched upon how the user interface can combine integrated information and present it to the user.
Is digitization achievable?
Is digitization without integration achievable? All the panellists agreed that we cannot achieve the vision of digitization or digital transformation without integration. And that “Silicon Valley” and the technology giants there and elsewhere have no actual stake-holding in integrations.
In effect, they prefer to sell entire systems rather than to join their clients’ applications.
The highest natural stakeholders in software integration
Consequently, the highest natural stakeholder in software integration is the ship manager/operator owner. And the expertise lies with the applications builders that sell software integration to the marine industry.
The natural response, then, is to assist the ultimate stakeholder to manage the complexities of integration. Rather than leaving it to individual vendors, who may not have a rooted interest in making integration a success.
Studying integration
Subsequent to the above conclusions, was the thought-provoking discussion regarding the study of integration and the serious need to bring it to the same level of importance that software development has.
Commitment
Theodoros Ioannou (Bernard Schulte) stressed the importance of the commitment and mind set of companies trying to achieve digital transformation. He maintained that it is a key issue, and this was discussed at length. He also drew attention to the fact that class, charterers and ports need to be involved. Comparably, George Tsivgoulis explained how integration is a strategic decision.
Machine learning
Dimitris Marselos (COSCO Shipping Lines) suggested how machine learning, if properly prepared and developed, could help verify varying values.
Conclusion
The conclusions of our panel discussion on integration in the shipping enterprise were concordant. Clearly, something needs to be done about it. Essentially, integration is part of a longer revision of the shipping enterprise mindset towards successful digital transformation.

Digital Ship Hamburg 2023 Event
The Digital Ship Hamburg Conference 2023 Event took place Friday 30th March. And Dimitris Lyras, founder of Ulysses Systems moderated the first panel discussion of the day.
Notably, two key technology questions set the panel theme: ‘What do shipowners most want to see from digital technology?’ And the follow-up question: ‘Can we purchase digital tools which will last us at least 15 years without being replaced?’
Certainly, we were privileged to have consummate domain experts from the marine or software industry presenting their stand point. Namely, Johann Meyer of Columbia Shipmanagement, Jan Solle of Fraunhofer CML, and Nils Aden of Harren & Partner. Among them, our good friend Giampiero Soncini of Oceanly Srl, a person of great accomplishment, experience and humour. As a result, we came away buzzing with thoughts about the long-term view of shipping software, continuous improvement and integration. For this, thanks go to our panelists and the lively interactions from the audience. Special thanks to Digital Ship for an excellent article giving us the Shipping Industry’s view of software concerns.
Digital Ship Conference Hamburg is a prominent bi-annual event bringing together “shipping companies and maritime digitalisation leaders since 2003”.
Ulysses Systems was a promotional sponsor at the Digital Ship Conference Hamburg 2023. Panteleimon Pantelis, Ulysses Systems Chief Operation Officer and Dimitris Glossiotis, Ulysses Systems Product Director attended the conference with Dimitris Lyras.

2022 Review
“We are happy to share our 2022 Review with our clients and wider community in the Marine Industry, and with our partners in the Software Industry. Last year, Ulysses brought many developments close to finalisation. The most important being the separation of data and logic from the technology which hosts it.”
Dimitris Lyras
Leading technologies
Our leading technologies are based on the separation of data and logic from the hosting technologies. This key step in continuous improvement contributes immensely towards our clients’ ownership of a fully integrated and hassle-free IT ecosystem. Furthermore, planning enterprise digitization developments and implementing them will seem painless.
These are:
- Our unique co-ordination facilities
- Our continuous improvement of use cases to improve user experience
- Our first integration of e-mail with applications
- Our even greater use of parametrisation to ensure configurability and reduce the need for customisations
And we already looking forward to next year where we will be sharing many more developments based on our core technology.
New contracts
Also in the course of 2022, we signed new contracts, news we are grateful to share.

About Task Assistant®
The Chios Connection
Chios is not only a beautiful location for hosting events. This year, in fact, Chios was the venue for our annual user conference. On the subject of our connection with Chios, without a doubt, we admit it is a deep one. It informs our approach to software, and it keeps you, the stakeholders in the marine enterprise, utmost in our minds. We could sum it up thus:
Our claim is not marketing or hype but the simple truth. We care enormously about our clients and about industry pains. And the common-sense aspect is an integral part of our caring and of our core differentiation. Clearly, from inception, we have respected how the stakeholders in every marine enterprise have an intuitive way of indexing events. And how they solve problems based on past experience, i.e., on stories.
As a result, we have engineered common sense as a design concept through “case-based reasoning” and story-based reflection. And these we have incorporated into our original knowledge management design. We continue this direction, which persists the continuous improvement of our software through flexible configuration of customisation needs. And our technology is geared on keeping our customers up to date with industry trends and innovations.
Task Assistant®
The Task Assistant® Solution Platform was not a pre-existing software app that was later adapted to ship management. Nor is it a narrow process software solution looking for wider justification in shipping. In fact, Task Assistant® was designed, from the start, as an underlying solution platform able to address the core issues of the marine enterprise. Not for one year, not for 5, not for fifteen. The goal was to build future-proof platform solutions. And if solutions are future-proof, it also means our customers can look forward to low-cost software.
We are serious about technology
We have been proving for decades that we are serious about technology. So, we started with Task Assistant® integrated platform, which provides unified data across applications. And we continue to prove it with our unique integrations approach and our pledge to provide small and large enterprises a hassle-free digitization experience. We, in fact, commit to our competitive advantage. In short, to provide flexible upgradeable, asset management solutions adapted to your way of working. https://www.ulysses-systems.com/blog/task-assistant-integrated-reporting/
Future-proof solutions
What typifies future-proof? Well, flexibility, for a start. Future-proof solutions are flexible, and this is important since no enterprise remains static. So, a flexible software system that adapts to process variation and optimisation is a system no enterprise can do without. Yet, flexibility is a design challenge which application-based software, fixed in nature, has great difficulty with. But Task Assistant® building blocks are expressly designed to enable an organization’s efforts for continuously improving operations. So, with a platform designed for continuous improvement, you will feel confident your software will support you now and going forward.
2022 Chios Conference
Ulysses Systems User Conference
Ulysses systems user conference this year took place in Chios. And Chios town waterfront provided the particularly feel good atmosphere of the event and delighted everyone. The conference sessions followed later by discussions over dinner and walks around town were most constructive and fun.
Moreover, during sessions, our clients shared ways in which they have used Task Assistant® to build their own tools, leveraging the unique data integrity of the software and flexibility in process building. We are gratified our clients get value out of Task Assistant®. In fact, nothing could please us more than to have our clients happy with the software solutions we provide 🙂
Finally, as the conference ended many participants came up with desire for a repeat. So, can Chios become a permanent venue for our User Conference events? What do you think?
TRANSIT @ Posidonia 2022
Ulysses Systems Party, Tuesday 7, June 2022
Marianna Lyra’s work, Transit, resonates with Ulysses Systems view that software is transitioning into becoming significantly more situationally aware. In actual fact, by emulating how humans understand the world rather than how computer languages manage data relationships. Thus, we are transiting towards expecting data to give us the story within the bigger picture.
