Abstract
Abstract At the forefront of technological development, cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain (CTDAB) are not mutually exclusive, but complementary and integrated. The connotative characteristics and correlation of cloud computing, IoT, big data, AI, and blockchain are mainly introduced in this study, and their application in maritime field are summarized. Cloud computing, big data, and AI are the core technologies for realizing IoT technology. Blockchain technology supplements the functions of IoT. The cross-support and comprehensive application of these emerging technologies has started in the process of people’s exploration of the maritime field, which has played a key role in promoting the intelligent development of the maritime field.
