Sažetak
The evidence of a fast expansion of electronic commerce is, indeed, growing. Three years ago, during the early period of Internet commercialisation, market researchers' predictions for Web sales by 2001 varied from a few billion to more than $100 billion. We know now that all these reports underestimated the growth of Internet commerce. Despite the wild enthusiasm about the explosion of the business use of the Internet and because of the related paradigm shift, many fundamental issues in maritime transport still need to be resolved. One of the primary issues is ensuring the adequate bandwith to and from the vessel. This paper investigates the possibilities and the costs for using Inmarsat communications for electronic commerce aboard the ship.
