Experimental conditions are set with environmental factors which can affect ship navigation. In FTS simulation, infinite simulation can be theoretically tested with no time constraint but the simulated result with the same experimental condition is repeated due to mathematical model. RTS simulation can give more resonable results but costs at lest 30 minutes for only experimental time. The mixture of two simulation methods using probability density function has been proposed: some of experimental conditions in which ship-handling is most difficult are selected with FTS and are tested in RTS. It has drawback that it does not consider the navigation route but aggregated track index. In this paper, anomaly detection approach is suggested to select some experimental conditions of FTS simulation which are most difficult in ship-handling during the navigation route. An empirical result has been shown.

항만이나 항로에서의 심층적인 선박운항 안전성 평가를 위한 목적으로 주로 선박운항 시뮬레이션 시스템이 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 실제해상에서 선박이 조우할 수 있는 환경 조건은 매우 다양한 반면, 비용이나 시간적인 제약으로 인하여 실시간 선박운항 시뮬레이션은 극히 한정 된 경우에 대해서만 수행되는 것이 일반적이다. 본 논문에서는, 이러한 실시간 시뮬레이션 실험 조건을 효과적이고 체계적으로 도출하기 위한 통계적 기법에 대하여 제안하고, 이 기법을 실제 선박 운항 안전성 평가를 위한 시뮬레이션 연구에 적용한 실증 분석 결과를 사례 연구로 기술하였다. 실증 분석에는 주성분을 이용한 종합 운항 난이도 산정 방법과 누적 확률분포 개념을 이용하여 선박 운항 난이도가 높은 실험 조건을 실시간 시뮬레이션 실험 조건으로 선택하는 기법을 제시하였다.

In A bridge which connects Mokpo North Harbor and Com Island is going to be constructed until 2009. For the bridges being built in the navigable water area, it is indispensible to carry out vessel traffic safety assessment from the viewpoint of shiphandlers, however, there exist no specific guidelines for the necessary conditions whim the bridge designers can rely on. In this paper, traffic safety assessment procedures for the layout of the bridge is briefly introduced, and the conditions whim should be taken into account at the initial design stage of the bridge is surveyed. For the safety assessment of the bridge design, ship navigation simulations, such as RTS(real time simulation} and FTS(fast time simulation), are carried out, the results of which are statistically analysed to estimate the probability of collision between the ship and the pier of the bridge.

Detect and avoid (DAA) system, which is essential for the operation of UAS, detects intruding aircraft and offers the ranges of turn and climb/descent maneuver that are required to avoid the intruder. This paper uses detect and avoid alerting logic for unmanned systems (DAIDALUS) developed at NASA as a DAA algorithm. Since DAIDALUS offers ranges of avoidance maneuvers, the actual avoidance maneuver must be decided by the UAS pilot as well as the timing and method of returning to the original route. It can be readily used in real-time human-in-the-loop (HiTL) simulations where a human pilot is making the decision, but a pilot decision model is required in fast-time simulations that proceed without human pilot intervention. This paper proposes a pilot decision model that maneuvers the aircraft based on the DAIDALUS avoidance maneuver range. A series of tests were conducted using test vectors from radio technical commission for aeronautics (RTCA) minimum operational performance standards (MOPS). The alert levels differed by the types of encounters, but loss of well clear (LoWC) was avoided. This model will be useful in fast-time simulation of high-volume traffic involving UAS.

Waterway design should prioritize appropriate channel width to ensure preferential safe passage for the arrival and departure of vessels. To calculate the minimum channel width required for safe passage a comprehensive review of several factors is required. These factors include vessel maneuverability, determined by vessel size, type and speed; environmental factors such as wind, tide, and wave action; human factors, including personal experience and operator judgment as well as marine traffic and navigation support facilities for decision making. However, the Korean channel width design standard is based only on vessel length, and requires improvement when compared with the standards of PIANC, USA, and Japan. This study aims to estimate the appropriate channel width required for one-way traffic in a straight channel, considering various vessel and environmental factors, using Fast Time Simulation (FTS). When the wind speed is 25 knots, with a current speed of 2 knots and a normal vessel speed of 10 knots FTS shows that a 150K GT Cruise Ship requires a minimum channel width of 0.67-0.91 the vessel length (L), whereas a 120K TEU Container Ship and a 300K DWT VLCC require 0.79-1.17 and 1.02-1.59, respectively. Such results can be used to calculate the minimum channel width required for safe passage as an improved Korean design standard.

Ship-handling simulation system has been used for maritime traffic safety assessment for harbor and fairway. There exist various environmental conditions under which ship may navigate along a fairway or in harbor. Due to the time and budget limitations, however, ship-handling simulations are usually carried out for very limited number of environmental conditions. In this paper, statistical method for effective and systematic determination of real time simulation conditions is suggested and applied to the maritime traffic safety assessment problems. In the empirical study, the principal component analysis method and the concept of empirical cumulative distribution function are suggested to estimate synthetic navigational difficulty and to select simulation conditions which would impose high difficulty on shiphandling.

The overlap-add technique based on waveform similarity (WSOLA) method is known to be an efficient high-quality algorithm for time scaling of speech signal. The computational load of WSOLA is concentrated on the repeated normalized cross-correlation (NCC) calculation to evaluate the similarity between two signal waveforms. To reduce the computational complexity of WSOLA, this paper proposes a fast NCC computation method, in which NCC is obtained through pre-calculated sum tables to eliminate redundancy of repeated NCC calculations in the adjacent regions. While the denominator part of NCC has much redundancy irrespective of the time-scale factor, the numerator part of NCC has less redundancy and the amount of redundancy is dependent on both the time-scale factor and optimal shift value, thereby requiring more sophisticated algorithm for fast computation. The simulation results show that the proposed method reduces about 40%, 47% and 52% of the WSOLA execution time for the time-scale compression, 2 and 3 times time-scale expansions, respectively, while maintaining exactly the same speech quality of the conventional WSOLA.

In a VOD system, it is desirable to provide the user with interactive VCR functions such as fast-forward and fast-backward. Typically, these functions can be implemented using the segment interleaving technique in disk away based VOD servers. But the segment interleaving nay not ensure QoS of users because of the concentrated load within some disks. In this paper, we propose an efficient load balancing technique for evenly distributing the retrieval requests across the disks. The proposed technique maintains an access counter in each disk, which has the number of disk accesses. The fast-forward/backward can be achieved by choosing a segment to be accessed from the disk with the minimum number among the access counters. We conduct simulation experiments and then show that our proposed technique outperforms the previous ones.

Air transport demand is on a sharp rise due to growth in the aviation market. To prepare for this rapidly growing demand for aviation, airport operators are interested in the processing airport capacity. Airport throughput is determined to be the smallest of the facility capacities that make up the airport, but it is customary to determine the cost and time consuming runway capacity as airport capacity. Previous studies have shown that while recent studies have been conducted on airport capacity, there is little research on the criteria for determining capacity. In this study, we would like to determine the extent to which airport capacity is affected by the airport's operating hours and the resulting delays.
