Information technology has been transforming the relationship between shippers and carriers, but an unresolved question remains: what is the relative importance to shippers of service versus cost benefits of e-logistics solutions? This research develops and empirically tests a model to determine how Internet-based logistical operations in international shipping impact on the relative importance of cost versus service benefits to shippers. Contrary to expectations, results show that shippers perceived cost benefits from well-designed web sites, undoubtedly a consequence of perceptions that multi-function portals with ease of access contributed to savings in time and money. Another result was the confirmation of the positive effects of cargo tracing and bill of lading issuance on service-related factors. Finally, this study draws attention to the need for improvements in on-line booking capabilities and development of a comprehensive common portal; issues that must be addressed for shipping lines to succeed in an increasingly competitive e-logistics market.

The traditional measures of a container port (or terminal) efficiency such as crane productivity, cargo throughput, etc. were generally presenting the partial efficiency since they evaluated only each individual factor and based on cross-sectional data. To overcome this problem, and in an effort to help port authorities develop a winning strategy in the increasingly competitive container transportation market, this Paper develops a meaningful set of benchmarks that will set the standard for best practices. In particular, this paper proposed a combined method to merge the DEA and simulation technique over time. To illustrate the usefulness of the proposed combined DEA/simulation model, this paper used the panel data of the four Gwangyang container terminals and seven Busan container terminals in Korea over the four-year period of 1999 through 2002.

Currently, container transport services play a substantial role in global cargo transportation, by serving as an intermodal between exporter and importer. Container shipping has become increasingly important over the past few decades, due to obvious advantages. However, Vietnam's container market has shown severely ongoing competition among numerous domestic and foreign shipping lines, resulting in serious consequences occurring such as freight rates substantially decreasing within the last 10 years. Vietnam's sea lanes have become more defensive, to cover losses of shipping companies. Selection of criteria for competitive evaluation of container transport companies is necessary, to facilitate addressing the problems within the enterprise, especially relating to its position in the market and from here, business management can implement strategic plans and reasonable policy, to survive and grow.

The awareness of the high-value industry for container terminal leads competitiveness of container terminals to keep high fiercely. In regards to competitive factors of container terminal, the most important point among several factors is seemed to be the speed of container loading and unloading on quayside. In container terminals in Korea, the productivity shows big difference even though its condition is similar to each terminal. The objective of this paper is to find the critical factors of container terminal productivity, which is dependant upon the capability, quantity of quay crane, transfer vehicle, and so on. For this purpose, we have researched related literatures, and collected data about container terminals in South Korea. Furthermore, we tested sensitive analysis to evaluate the extent of productivity by changing independent variable. And then we established the regression model to evaluate which factor has had the biggest impact on productivity. The results of this paper can give terminal operators guideline to improve productivity.

In order to obtain and maintain competitive advantage, under rapidly changing maritime environment, liners should make efforts to reinforce their logistics service capabilities. Most of all, for this, shipping lines should accurately recognize and evaluate their logistics service attributes. In the present research, various logistics service attributes for ocean carriers were selected from previous studies and the observed data for 6 main service attributes were collected through a questionnaire survey to 31 maritime experts. Moreover, shipping lines' relative logistics service capabilities were measured by an additional survey process. The comparative gravity between core evaluation factors were measured by AHP technique and the relative capability levels of 2 Korean liners and 5 foreign shipping companies were assessed by utilizing a fuzzy model. The empirical result presents that Korean liners are superior at customer service capability but inferior at freight rate competitiveness. This research shows that Korean liners are ranked at high position for overall logistics service capabilities and focusing on the differentiation strategy but not on the cost related strategy.

연안해운과 관련한 최근 환경 변화는 남북해운합의서 발효에 따른 남북물류의 증대 가능성과 환황해권, 환동해권의 동북아 연안 부상 등을 언급할 수 있다. 그러니, 연안해운에 대한 국가 정책의 소외는 우리나라라 물류거점화 되는데 많은 문세점을 노출하고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해소하고 외항과 연안간 균형발전을 도모하여 우리나라가 동북아 물류거점화 할 수 있는 방안을 크게 연계수송체제의 강화. 연안해운의 체질강화 및 정부의 체계적인 지원정책으로 구분, 제시하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 연구결과에 의하면, 첫째로, 연계수송체계를 강화하기 위해 거점항만내에 연안피더 전용선석의 구축으로 연안피더운송의 연계성 강화가 필요하며 둘째로, 언안부두에 화주즐 유인할 수 있는 공동장치장 및 하역설비를 대폭 보강하여 일괄 서비스체제의 확립, 노후 비경계선의 Ro-Ro 선 혹은 고속컨테이너선으로의 대체. 화물선에 대한 면세유 공급과 각종 세제의 실질적인 혜댁부여로 환경 친화적이며 균형있는 외항-연안 물류사슬체계(Logistics Chain System)를 갖추는 것이 필요한 것으로 나타나고 있다.

세계 국제 화물 무역의 80% 이상이 해상운송을 통하여 운송되고 있다. 그래서 국제무역량이 많은 국가들은 해운산업의 중요성을 인식하고 자국의 해운산업을 육성하기 위한 정책을 추진해왔다. 최근 세계 경제, 국제무역, 세계 원유 가격 및 다른 불확실적인 요소들의 변화로 인하여 세계 해운 시장에 있어 경쟁이 더욱 심해지고 있다. 해안선에 많이 접해 있고 해외 경제의존도가 높은 국가인 태평양 연안 국가 예를 들어 일본, 중국, 한국의 해운산업은 최근 비약적인 발전을 해 오고 있다. 특히 중국은 급속히 증가하는 무역량을 바탕으로 해운산업의 성장이 급속도로 이루어지고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 태평양 연안에 속해 있는 주요 해운국가인 일본, 중국, 한국, 싱가포르, 미국의 해운산업의 국제 경쟁력을 상호 비교하며 중국 해운산업에 경쟁력에 대한 강화방안을 제시하는 데 있다. M. Porter의 다이아몬드 모델을 바탕으로 AHP분석 방법을 통한 해운경쟁력 요소를 도출하고 이를 통해 주요 해운국과 중국 해운산업의 경쟁력을 비교해 본 결과 해운산업의 질적 요소에서 취약하기 때문에 이에 대한 개선 정책이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Shortage of trained seafarers is an issue, which many ship-owners are facing and, according to recent studies, the shortfall of both officers and rating will worsen in the next few years. The key role of seafarers is of fundamental importance in international trade, as they are the ones responsible for safely manning and operating ships. In developing countries, they also perform a strategic aspect in terms of contribution to GDP, mainly by earning foreign currency and increasing national consumption of goods and services. Myanmar is still considered a developing country with an economy, which has only recently started growing steady. It is also one of the major seafarers supplying nations and the contribution, which seafarers have on the national GDP may be particularly significant in comparison to other countries. This study aims at investigating seafarers' impact towards the Myanmar national economy. The paper describes the status of Myanmar seafarers, and the seafarers' current and forecasted impact towards the Myanmar economy through a regression model. The study concludes with recommendations to make Myanmar seafarers more competitive internationally and increase their economic contribution nationally.

The development and operation of autonomous ships are spotlighted as a next-generation technology that will provide newbenefits for the maritime business during the fourth industrial revolution. To expand the adoption of autonomous ships, the much more interest of the nation and the industries will have to be changed to actual adoption in shipping companies. For this, it is judged that research to identify the factors impacting the adoption intention of autonomous ships should be preceded. However, most studies on autonomous ships have focused on developing the technology, revising the law, establishing policies, and managing human resources, with few studies on influencing factors in the adoption of autonomous ships. A model, to identify the factors that impact the intention to the adoption of autonomous ships, based on the theory of diffusion of innovation and the TOE framework was developed. The suggested model was verified through empirical analysis targeting the shipping companies and the marine industries in Korea. As the result of this study, it was found that top management support, financial slack, and competitive intensity significantly impacted the intention to adopt autonomous ships. Additionally, it was revealed that the overall awareness of autonomous ships among Korean shipping companies is poor.
