Telematica per i trasporti: proposta per l'architettura generale di riferimento per l'Italia



3 Contenuto dell'architettura

Scopo del presente capitolo è:

  • delineare le caratteristiche salienti dell'architettura (cos'è l'architettura);

  • illustrare i contenuti previsti e quindi un indice generale dell'architettura.

Quanto sin qui esposto evidenzia l'importanza di sancire un quadro di riferimento per lo sviluppo della telematica per i trasporti, atto a perseguire i premessi obiettivi, attraverso la definizione:

  1. delle linee guida della "telematica" comuni ai vari modi di trasporto;

  2. dei requisiti generali di sviluppo che gli standard normativi devono soddisfare;

  3. delle modalità con cui determinate informazioni di utilità per gli utenti dei trasporti devono essere rese disponibili;

  4. delle caratteristiche che determinati sistemi, condivisi o utilizzati da più modi di trasporto o comunque da utenti differenti, devono garantire per un loro proficuo utilizzo.

In tale ottica, il Piano Nazionale, per facilitare l’innovazione telematica, suggerisce che venga avviata, al più presto, una azione per la definizione dell'architettura nazionale di riferimento per la telematica per i trasporti.

L’architettura dovrà indicare ed integrare, in un’ottica evolutiva e con un orizzonte temporale maggiore di cinque anni, in sequenza:

  1. i requisiti per la telematica per i trasporti (user requirements);

  2. i servizi considerati prioritari;

  3. la descrizione gerarchica delle funzioni necessarie e delle loro relazioni (Architettura Funzionale);

  4. gli elementi principali dell’architettura fisica, in diverse realizzazioni possibili (struttura funzionale, comunicazioni, architettura logica, architettura organizzativa); gli elementi dovranno essere descritti in modo indipendente dalle tecnologie ed al livello di definizione necessario per ricavare le priorità sulle varie normative (giuridiche e tecniche);

  5. le priorità per le condizioni abilitanti (normative di vari tipi ed azioni non tecniche);

  6. le indicazioni per la formazione e di divulgazione;

  7. le indicazioni per l'aggiornamento, revisione, verifica in itinere dell’architettura .

La proposta prevede che la definizione dell’architettura venga affidata ad una unità operativa (facente capo a una impresa o gruppo di imprese), scelta mediante gara, sulla base di un capitolato specifico. L’unità operativa dovrà confrontarsi periodicamente con i principali attori nazionali del settore, cioè con un gruppo di consultazione (per verificare il consenso sulle scelte principali) e mantenere gli opportuni collegamenti internazionali (per garantire il coordinamento, almeno a livello europeo). Un comitato tecnico - direttivo seguirà e verificherà l’avanzamento dei lavori (cfr. ' 4.1).

 

3.1 Livelli dell'Architettura

Come indicato nel cap. 2, l'Architettura risulta sostanzialmente un quadro di riferimento, una struttura di pensiero inerente la gestione e lo sviluppo dei trasporti con i relativi supporti tecnologici, derivanti in prevalenza dal settore delle telecomunicazioni e dell'informatica, quindi dei "sistemi telematici".

Essa può essere strutturata in tre livelli principali, le cui connessioni sono definiti dall'Architettura stessa:

  1. Livello della Telematica

  2. Livello dei Trasporti

  3. Livello Istituzionale

 

a) Livello della Telematica

Questo livello riguarda e definisce la struttura informativa ed i relativi requisiti di comunicazione, i quali consentono la connessione tra i vari elementi costitutivi del Livello di Trasporto (2). Il livello della Telematica è quello che permette la definizione di un sistema ITS e quindi il coordinamento e la condivisione delle informazioni tra i modi di trasporto, gli utenti e gli attori coinvolti.

L'Architettura definisce a tal proposito:

  • quale tipo di informazioni e comunicazioni sono necessari per supportare i vari servizi di trasporto;

  • come le informazioni ed i dati devono essere scambiati ed utilizzati e da quali entità fisiche (sottosistemi);

  • quali standard devono essere utilizzati o sono necessari per facilitare questa condivisione delle informazioni tra i diversi utenti.

Nell'identificazione della Telematica per i Trasporti come ITS, la telematica è un requisito di base per l'introduzione della "S" di "sistema".

 

b) Livello dei Trasporti

Esso rappresenta il mondo reale, seppure in continua evoluzione. Il livello del Trasporto identifica le infrastrutture ed i veicoli per il trasporto, il traffico, la catena logistica, gli utenti ed attori coinvolti. L'Architettura definisce, in tale contesto, la terminologia, le caratteristiche comuni e di interfaccia tra i vari modi di trasporto, i requisiti per la mobilità multimodale e l'intermodalità.

 

c) Livello Istituzionale

Tale livello riguarda le relazioni tra i vari attori coinvolti nella telematica per i trasporti. E’ necessario individuare soluzioni organizzative e normative che permettano uno sviluppo facilitato.

L’Architettura riguarda, a tale livello, la definizione di eventuali attori istituzionali mancanti, di proposte organizzative, di strutture, anche normative, abilitanti.

Come prerogative salienti dell'architettura si possono elencare:

  • la definizione delle linee guida per i progettisti e realizzatori di sistemi telematici;

  • la prescrizione dei requisiti di comunicazione che ciascun sistema/ente, coinvolto nella "Telematica per i Trasporti" o che ne sia interessato, può fornire al mondo esterno e può aver interesse a ricevere ed utilizzare;

  • l'estraneità a scelte di tecnologie specifiche (pur con la necessità di incorporare sistemi esistenti); l'estraneità a progetti a politiche particolari o elettive;

  • l’obiettivo chiaro di facilitare l’ingresso di diversi attori nel settore della Telematica per i Trasporti, in particolare nella fornitura di servizi per i sistemi di trasporto intelligenti;

  • la proposta di scenari di attuazione della telematica, salvaguardando i requisiti di interoperabilità, perseguiti contestualmente dalle norme tecniche.

L'impegno dei realizzatori dell'Architettura consiste nel:

  1. facilitare lo sviluppo dell'interoperabilità a livello nazionale ed europeo, promuovendo di conseguenza la definizione di standard normativi;

  2. salvaguardare ed aggiornare l'architettura col passare del tempo;

  3. sviluppare programmi di formazione ed addestramento per specifiche applicazioni della telematica;

  4. fornire ai soggetti interessati un manuale di carattere generale per la realizzazione e l'adozione dei sistemi telematici per i trasporti;

 

3.2 Un indice tipo per l'Architettura

La struttura tipica di un documento completo per la definizione dell’Architettura può essere ripartita nei seguenti cinque capitoli fondamentali.

1. Introduzione:

fornisce le indicazioni generali sugli obiettivi e contenuti del documento.

2. Definizioni ed obiettivi:dovrebbe contenere la descrizione dei principi di base e le definizioni concise della missione del lavoro; a cosa serve l’Architettura, come deve essere usata e da chi, sono le domande a cui il lettore dovrà trovare risposta in questa sezione.

3. Requisiti fondamentali dei sistemi telematici per i trasporti: dovrebbe contenere la descrizione delle caratteristiche fondamentali che devono essere soddisfatte dai sistemi telematici per i trasporti in Italia e l’analisi dei servizi potenzialmente realizzabili dai sistemi; prevede inoltre l’analisi delle esigenze degli utenti e i requisiti minimi dei sistemi per ogni servizio.

4. Il livello funzionale: dovrebbe contenere la descrizione delle architetture funzionali e logiche di riferimento per la realizzazione dei sistemi telematici per i trasporti in Italia. Questo livello comprenderà anche l’architettura gestionale e organizzativa.

5. Il livello fisico: dovrebbe contenere alcune possibili indicazioni per l’architettura, a livello dei sottosistemi e loro collegamenti, riferite alla situazione esistente ed alle tecnologie prevedibili a breve termine. Essa dovrà comprendere almeno:

  • la mappatura delle funzioni sui diversi elementi fisici (ad esempio, centri a diversi livelli, unità distribuite sulla rete di trasporto, unità sui veicoli, unità sui carichi, unità sui passeggeri, ecc.);

  • l’architettura dati;

  • l’architettura di comunicazione.

Particolare attenzione dovrà essere posta all’interazione tra le diverse applicazioni.

L’Architettura dovrà essere sviluppata di concerto con l'iniziativa italiana del Ministero dei Lavori Pubblici (Piano Nazionale della Telematica) e l’iniziativa europea KAREN, per garantire la "compatibilità" dei sistemi in Italia col contesto Europeo; altri progetti settoriali dovranno essere incorporati.

In modo schematico, l'indice potrebbe quindi essere così strutturato:

1. Introduzione al documento

1.1 Struttura del documento

1.2 Documenti correlati

2. Definizioni di base

2.1 Definizione (vision statement)

2.2 Obiettivo (mission statement)

2.3 Categorie di utenti

3. Requisiti fondamentali dei sistemi Telematici per i Trasporti

3.1 Elenco dei servizi

3.2 I requisiti fondamentali

3.3 Relazioni tra soggetti, tematiche, ambiente esterno (context diagram)

4. Il livello logico

4.1 Il modello di riferimento

4.2 Architettura funzionale

4.3 Architettura di controllo

4.4 Architettura informativa

4.5 Architettura gestionale

5. Il livello fisico

5.1 Architettura fisica

5.1.1 Sistemi esistenti

5.1.2 Proposte di architetture fisiche

5.2 L’architettura di comunicazione

5.3 Normative tecniche

5.4 Costi/benefici

5. Raccomandazioni

5.1 Priorità per lo sviluppo

5.2 Nuove normative tecniche

5.1 Nuove normative giuridiche

Tale indice può costituire un'ossatura di massima e di partenza per il documento sull'Architettura, ma nulla esclude che esigenze logiche ed organizzative possano comportare una revisione sostanziale dello stesso.
