Privatisation has emerged within the past few decades as one of the most significant challenges to public ports and their governments throughout the world. More than forty countries have committed to some form of port privatisation thus far and they will quite likely be joined by dozens more by the turn of the century. A decision to privatise ports can be driven by a variety of forces. The most obvious is to relieve a financially strapped government by turning to the private sector for an infusion of capital required to modernise and sustain port operations, or to bolster the national treasury. Inefficient and costly port operations can seriously impair the competitiveness of a nation’s export industries and artificially raise the cost and thus constrain the availability of imported goods. Privatisation in certain circumstances therefore holds the promise of stimulating economic growth particularly for those whose livelihood depends directly upon port activity and trade. The main objective of this paper is first of all, to introduce a variety of methods of port privatisation after reviewing the reason why port facilities should be privatised. This paper also aims to make some proposals with which a port privatisation process in Korea can be improved after summarising the present Terminal Operating Company(TOC) system propelled by Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries.

2000년대 들어 정보기술의 발달로 정보공유와 수집을 쉽게 할 수 있게 되면서 많은 정보를 활용하여 미래의 사람들의 행동과 생각을 예측하기에 이른다. 특히, 정부는 보안과 위험관리 분야에 빅데이터 개념을 도입하여 미래에 대한 위험을 예측하고 효과적으로 관리할 수 있게 되었다. 선박도 사람과 마찬가지로 선박운항과 관련된 수많은 정보들을 만들어낸다. 이렇게 생성된 정보는 각 기관에 흩어져 관리되고 있으며, VTS센터에서 수집되는 정보들은 아직까지 체계적인 관리조차 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 제언은 국내 VTS센터, 나아가 인근 국가의 VTS센터에서 생성되는 각종 정보들과 관련 기관에서 활용되는 정보들을 한 곳에서 통합하여 관리하는 시스템을 구축하고 이곳에서 공유 분석되는 정보를 통해 조금이나마 선박사고의 위험성을 감소시킬 수 있는 관제 방법에 대해서 생각해보았다. 이에 대한 방안 중 하나로 정보공유를 통한 선박 사고 개연성 예측 모델을 제시하고자 한다. 이후 연구를 통해, 본 제언에서 제시된 사고 개연성 예측 모델을 위한 위험유발 인자와 사고의 발생과의 상관을 통계적으로 해명할 수 있게 된다면 본 모델을 활용하여 보다 선제적이고, 효율적인 선박관제를 수행할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Recently, there have been cases in which counterfeit foreign ships have entered and left domestic ports several times. Vessels have a ship-specific serial number given by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to identify the vessel, and IMO marking is mandatory on all ships built since 2004. In the case of airports and ports, which are representative logistics platforms, a security system is essential, but it is difficult to establish a security system at a port and there are many blind spots, which can cause security problems due to insufficient security systems. In this paper, a port security system is designed using deep learning object recognition and OpenCV. The security system process extracts the IMO number of the ship after recognizing the object when entering the ship, determines whether it is the same ship through feature point matching for ships with entry records, and stores the ship image and IMO number in the entry/exit DB for the first arrival vessel. Through the system of this paper, port security can be strengthened by improving the efficiency and system of port logistics by increasing the efficiency of port management personnel and reducing incidental costs caused by unauthorized entry.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the efficiency of the Chinese repair shipbuilding industry using a DEA model with 12 Chinese repair shipbuilding companies. Unlike preceding studies, this study has different research subjects as well as selected input and output variables. The research was conducted with competitive Chinese companies in the market. For the efficiency analysis, input variables included the number of technicians as well as facilities, and output variables were diversified with relevant factors using the number of repaired ships and service ranges as well as sales. The differences were analyzed by including only facilities as an input variable for the DEA model, and then both facilities and technicians. For inefficient DMUs, the strengths and weaknesses were analyzed by finding the causes through a reference group, which was developed into an efficient DMU. Moreover, public and private companies were separated to develop improvement measures.

In this study, a method for simplifying the structure of the VDES RF receiver, and the gain control method of the receiver to comply with the international standard in this structure was described. The input level of the wanted signal and unwanted signal to the receiver was defined, and when the two signals were input, the saturation state at the ADC was checked at the receiver output. As a result of the simulation by the circuit simulator, it was satisfied that the output power of the receiver was in the SFDR region of ADC with respect to the adjacent channel interference ratio, intermodulation, and blocking level. Through this study, it was found that the structure of th proposed RF receiver conforms to the international standard.

Intelligent maritime traffic information service for maritime traffic safety operates a service that provides safe and efficient optimal safety routes considering information such as water depth, maritime safety law, weather information, and fuel consumption. However, from a service user's point of view, they prefer a route that suits their personal navigation experience and style, such as unnecessary detours and conservative safety distances for maritime objects. In this study, the optimal safety route can be extracted based on the experience of service users without reflecting the separate maritime environment by adjusting the weight of the trunk line for the area where the ship frequently navigates with the ship's track data collected through LTE-M model was studied.

These days RFID application has been developed rapidly. It has been applied to many business areas such as logistics and supply chains. The Electronic Product Code (EPC) Network Architecture, an open global standard, is proposed by EPCglobal for developing RFID enabled systems. People who want to obtain the product information which are master information and event information have to apply with EPC Network Architecture. However, EPCIS which has master information and event information has to be accessed base on each EPC. Therefore, there is lots of duplicate accessing to EPCIS because RFID application has to access the same EPCIS over again which makes all performance down in EPC Network. This paper proposes how to reduce access times to EPCIS using EPC grouping based on EPCIS address. We build EPC Network environment to experiment about performance of RFID application system and we prove the improvement of EPC Network. Our result shows the reducing the EPCIS communication time by maximum 99 percentages.
