Bolivia's sea problem

Influenza as a health problem of sea travellers.

Traveling people may play an important role in spreading of influenza viruses in the word. The risk for exposure to influenza during travel depends on the time of year and destination, and the way of traveling (individual trip or organized excursion with a large group of people, especially coming from many different countries). Results of recent studies indicated that influenza may be the most ...

Classroom of the Sea: Problem-Based Learning for the Deaf

The Classroom of the Sea (COS) Project is an interactive problem-based learning environment embedded in marine science for deaf high school students to assist them in understanding and communicating scientific concepts. COS mixes a real and virtual environment for the students and teachers aboard a research vessel as they gather marine science data to address a problem. The students note the lo...

E-Booking Control Problem in Sea Cargo Logistics

In this paper, we consider the e-booking control problem which includes optimal pricing and capacity allocation. In pricing model, customers may refuse bookings based on their willingness to pay the quoted price. Since customer behavior and characteristics are highly varying and not known in advance, we develop a stochastic pricing model which tracks customer behavior as well as the arrival pro...

Sea-Bottom Profile — Remote Determination Problem in Geometrical Approach

Abstract The problem of the remote determination of a sea bottom is discussed. The approach which enables analysis of the experimental data obtained after reflection of audio signal from a sea bottom is presented. A computational algorithm for solving this problem was written. The examples of results for the sea-bottom profile interpolation that has been done with help of “Maple-V, Release 3 fo...
