  • The problem of vehicle routing problem(VRP) with pair operations of pick up and delivery are well-known in real applications in logistics networks, as in planning the routes for automatic guided vehicles(AGVs) in an automatic container terminal(ACT), warehouses or in some just-in-time services. This paper will present a formulation to modeling the problem mathematically which can be used to generate optimal routes of carried vehicles in the field to reduce the incurred cost of moving goods. This selected model could be used in (semi-)automatic short-term planning systems for vehicle fleet working in ACT, or in modern warehouses which the long list of requests is parted and sorted in preprocessing orders systems.

  • In this paper, an adaptive neural network controller and its application to automatic berthing control of ship is presented. The neural network controller is trained online using adaptive interaction technique without any teaching data and off-line training phase. Firstly, the neural networks used to control rudder and propeller during automatic berthing process are presented. Finally, computer simulations of automatic ship berthing are carried out to verify the proposed controller with and without the influence of wind disturbance and measurement noise.

  • Over the past 30 years, intense archaeological research has revealed a great increase in regional and transregional object mobility across the South China Sea during its Iron Age (500 BCE to 500 CE). Some objects had moved from a long distance: intaglios, seals, fine ceramic, glass containers, and gold coins of Mediterranean origin; and large bronzes, mirrors, and lacquerware connected to central East Asia. This evidence has given rise to larger-scale explanations, among which the most prominent has been the growth of (maritime) Silk Road trade. Scholars are divided as to whether the Silk Road is a suitable concept, with some emphasizing its orientalist overtones and colonial baggage and others finding it useful for the investigation of interregional networks trading in silk and other commodities. This paper explores how productive the Silk Road concept or metaphor really is for understanding transregional connectivity and social change in Iron Age Southeast Asia.

  • The core decisions of bulk shipping businesses can be summarized as the timing and the choice of period for which carrying capacity is traded. In particular, frequent decisions to trade freight either with repeated spot transactions or with a one-off long-term deal critically impact business performance. Even though a variety of freight trading strategies can be employed to facilitate the decisions, chartering practitioners have not been active in utilizing these strategies, and academic research has rarely proposed applicable solutions. The specific properties of freight as a tradable commodity are not properly reflected in existing studies, and limitations have been reported in their application to the real world. This research focused on the establishment of applicable freight trading strategies by taking into account two properties of freight: time perishability and term-dependant pricing. In addition to traditional trading strategies, artificial neural networks were applied for the first time to the test of freight trading strategies. The performances of the trading strategies were measured and compared to produce a remarkable outperformance of the ANN. This research is expected to make a significant contribution to chartering practices by enhancing the quality of chartering decisions and eventually enabling the effective management of freight rate risk. In addition to methodological expansion, the result will propose a way to approach the controversial issue of freight market efficiency.

  • The objective of this essay is to propose a cultural history of cosmography and cartography from the thirteenth to the sixteenth centuries. It focuses on some of the processes that characterized these fields of knowledge, using mainly western European sources. First, it elucidates the meaning that the term cosmography held during the period under consideration, and the scientific status that this composite field of knowledge enjoyed, pointing to the main processes that structured cosmography between the thirteenth century and the sixteenth century. I then move on to expound the circulation of cosmographic knowledge among Portugal, Venice and Lisbon in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. This analysis will show how cartography and cosmography were produced at the interface of articulated commercial, diplomatic and scholarly networks; finally, the last part of the essay focuses on the specific and quite distinctive use of cosmography in fifteenth-century European culture: the representation of "geo-political" projects on the world through the reformulation of the very concepts of sea and maritime networks. This last topic will be developed through the study of Fra Mauro's mid-fifteenth-century visionary project about changing the world connectivity through the linking of several maritime and fluvial networks in the Indian Ocean, Central Asia, and the Mediterranean Sea basin, involving the circumnavigation of Africa. This unprecedented project was based on a variety of sources accumulated in the Mediterranean Sea basin as well as in Asia and in the Indian Ocean over the course of several centuries.

  • 본 논문에서는 해상의 여러 통신대역에서 네트워크 환경 및 사용자의 요구조건에 따라 최적의 통신대역을 결정하고 통신대역을 전환하여 단절없는 통신서비스를 제공하는 멀티대역 네트워크 선택기 (MNS) 시스템을 제안한다. MMN 시스템은 해상의 이기종 네트워크들을 용이하게 통합 운용하기 위해 클라이언트 서버 통신방식의 미들웨어 계층에서 동작하며, 이를 위한 MNS 시스템의 구성 모듈 및 기능들을 소개한다. 또한, MNS 시스템은 각 통신대역의 네트워크 상태를 주기적으로 수신하고 네트워크 상태 정보 테이블 기반으로 네트워크 가용여부 및 최적의 통신대역을 결정한다. MNS 시스템은 차세대 해상 네트워크에 적용될 수 있으며 e-navigation 통신 인프라로 활용될 수 있다.

  • This paper discovers a robust managerial strategy for a stochastic inventory of perishable products, where the model experiences changing factors including inner parameters and an external disturbance with unknown form. An analytical solution for the optimization problem can be obtained by applying the Hamilton-Bellman-Jacobi equation, however the policy result cannot completely suppress the oscillation from the external disturbance. Therefore, an intelligent approach named Radial Basis Function Neural Networks is applied to estimate the unknown disturbance and provide a robust controller to manipulate the inventory level more effective. The final results show the outstanding performance of RBFNN controller, where both the estimation error and control error are guaranteed in the predefined limit.

  • This paper is devoted to investigating direct adaptive neural control of nonlinear systems with uncertain or unknown dynamic models. In the direct adaptive neural networks control area, theoretical issues of the existing backpropagation-based adaptive neural networks control schemes. The major contribution is proposing the variable index control approach, which is of great significance in the control field, and applying it to derive new stable robust adaptive neural network control schemes. This new schemes possess inherent robustness to system model uncertainty, which is not required to satisfy any matching condition. To demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed leaning algorithms and direct adaptive neural networks control schemes, intensive computer simulations were conducted based on the flexible joint robot systems and functions.

  • 라디오 통신 등의 전통적인 해상통신기술은 단문정보 교환만이 가능한 전송품질을 제공한다. 전송품질의 단점을 극복한 해사위성(Inmarsat) 등을 통한 무선 채널은 경제적 부담으로 접근이 어렵다. 따라서 바다에서 항해, 조업하는 선박들은 육상의 초고속 인터넷 서비스를 이용하지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는, 이 문제를 극복하는 새로운 기술에 핵심은 해상이동통신망을 단일 홉(Single Hop)에서 다중 홉(Multi Hop)으로 구성하는 것이다. 선박과 선박, 선박과 연안(항구)간의 망을 이동 애드 혹 네트워크(MANET) 모델로 해석하고 새로운 선박 애드 혹 네트워크(SANET) 모델을 설계하였다. 항구와 항로 같은 정적인 지리정보를 활용하면서 육지의 이동단말기와는 크게 차별화되는 움직이는 선박의 특성을 고려하면서 대응적으로(Reactive) 경로를 배정하는 부채꼴 탐색구역 경로배정 프로토콜(FSR)을 제안하였다. FSR(Fan-shaped Search Zone Routing)은 최단경로가 있을 수밖에 없는 지엽적 부채꼴 구역을 찾아내 획정하고 그 구역 안에서만 최단경로를 탐색하는 프로토콜이다. 기존의 지리 정보를 이용하는 대표적인 경로배정 프로토콜인 LAR과 성능을 비교하였다. 첫째, FSR은 LAR을 비롯한 다른 지리정보기반 경로배정 프로토콜과 달리 경로배정을 하기 위해 제어 패킷(Beaconing Packet)을 발생시키지 않아 통신채널 품질저하를 전혀 초래하지 않는다. 둘째, FSR은 경로탐색구역의 경계선의 일부분을 전송경로로 확보하기 때문에 경로탐색성공률을 100% 보장한 반면 LAR은 약 64%의 성공률을 보였다. 셋째, 경로가 탐색된 경우에 한하여 그 경로의 최적성을 상호 비교한 결과 FSR이 LAR의 약 97%이었다. 종합적으로는 FSR이 LAR보다 약 50%의 성능 개선 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.
