Maritime Situational Awareness (MSA) is founded on the collection and processing of information from heterogeneous sources, including radars, Navigation Aids (Vessel Traffic Monitoring and Information Systems, Automatic Identification System, Long Range Identification and Tracking System, etc), airbased and space-based monitoring services (Earth Observation), and recentlyconceived passive senso...

Maritime wireless communication is different from terrestrial wireless communication, due to difference of environments. Nevertheless technologies based on WiMAX (IEEE 802.16j) for ship to ship maritime communication promised to deliver high data rates over large distances and deliver multimedia services and are expected to use e-Navigation system. This paper focuses to simulate on IEEE 802.16j...

With the rapid development of maritime digital communication, the demand for spectrum resources is increasing, and building a maritime cognitive radio communication system is an effective solution. In this paper, the problem of how to effectively allocate the spectrum for secondary users (SUs) with different priorities in a maritime cognitive radio communication system is studied. According to ...

The international maritime industry is governed by strict international regulations managed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Maritime operations are inherently dangerous, with potentially very damaging consequences in terms of loss of lives, environmental consequences and economic loss. Operating at the highest levels of safety in a very competitive industry requires that ships...

We report five new species records for New Brunswick, Canada from the Coleoptera families Dryopidae, Elimidae, Psephenidae, and Ptilodactylidae. Dryops viennensis (Heer) (Dryopidae) and Promoresia elegans (LeConte) (Elmidae) are added to the faunal list for New Brunswick and the Maritime provinces. Two Psephenidae species, Ectopria nervosa (Melsheimer) and Ectopria thoracica (Ziegler) are repor...

Imbalanced international trade and the limited number of containers in maritime transportation industry have resulted considerable costs decreased profits for shipping firms. To manage these issues, this study utilizes price management techniques to control empty container repositioning a system. In system, there is firm providing services between two ports both directions. Each direction has i...

Maritime work is dynamical. As the ship sails, conditions change and so do the information needs. If instrumentation is to keep pace with these changing demands, it must be flexible and tailorable. Since, in addition, self-description and verbalization are important ingredients in maritime work, the system too must be able to present its inner state in a comprehensible manner.

Indonesia is one of the regions located in Southeast Asia which part ASEAN. has a considerable responsibility maintaining maritime security and peace ASEAN region. In this context it can be interpreted that freely play role any problems or events occur international world without influence various military, political ideological ties.
