“…E-navigation relies on four major issues of perception, data, standards, and transmission, and moves from theory to practical application. The application of e-navigation technology lays a foundation for the development of autonomous navigation technology of MASS, and the development of MASS also promotes the implementation of e-navigation strategy (Im, I., et al, 2018;Porathe, T., & Rødseth, Ø. J., 2019;Ahn, J., et al, 2019;Jeong, et al, 2018). It integrates e-navigation technology and autonomous ship technology.…”

“…Automated vessels have attracted interest as a means of reducing accidents (of which up to 96% are related to human factors) (Liu 2019), addressing the global shortage of seafarers, and improving cost efficiency (Komianos 2018). They might also reduce environmental damage related to human factors, such as the generation and discharge of waste and effluent from onboard humans (Ahn et al 2019), which is a key contributor to marine pollution and the reduction of biodiversity (Brondizio et al 2019). On the other hand, AI and other advanced sensing and responding systems are not yet at a level where there is widespread trust to safely address human, property, and environmental risks (Lazarowska 2019).…”

Uncrewed and autonomous marine vessels (UMVs) challenge the underlying paradigm of maritime laws and regulations. Yet UMVs are considered essential for safer, more efficient, and more effective maritime futures. There is a fundamental challenge facing industry and regulators about how to develop and support the nascent UMV industry while maintaining the safety and risk management principles and processes in legacy laws and regulations predicated on the conventional crewed vessel. This paper, drawing upon case studies of developer and operator experiences with Australia’s maritime safety framework, argues for an “intent-based”, flexible, and collaborative approach based on developers’ and operators’ experiences. The case studies show that ad hoc and bespoke regulatory pathways, utilising exemptions and discretions under Australian national laws, although problematic in terms of regulatory consistency and capacity to deal with scale, did allow for the trialling and deployment of two small UMVs. More importantly, the ad hoc approach facilitated information exchange between industry and regulators that is generating reforms and changes at the national level. Although focused on Australia, the findings are significant for maritime futures. It reveals a dialectical approach whereby maritime nations pragmatically work through the risks, standards, and processes that balance safety with facilitating local UMV industries, and in turn, this creates a body of knowledge to inform international reform processes. It also shows the importance of documenting and reflecting on the regulatory journeys of UMV pioneers as essential for safer, more efficient, and effective maritime industries that leverage the potential benefits of automation.

“…However, with the ever-changing regulations, fluctuation in the global market, the needs from the goods itself, and the foreseeable future of autonomous and environmental friendly shipping [4] [5] [6] [7], the high demand of a new, up-to-date shipping container lead to the pile-up of the old one.…”

This paper describes how old shipping containers can be modified and adapted into a new function such as building modules. Literature studies, study case (Day & Nite Eatery and Grocery, Bandung), as well as tracing back the shipping container through modification, storage, and inland depot were conducted to describe the life cycle of the container. Modern cities nowadays can flourish with the constant flow of goods from neighboring cities or even cities from across the world. Meanwhile, in the shipping industry, the demand for new containers is always high due to the changing regulations, economic trends, and the needs of the delivered goods. This situation leads to the pile-up of old containers at the port and the surrounding depots. Having an international standard that regulates size, material, durability, and strength of a container become both an opportunity and a challenge in designing container-based buildings. Situated 760 m above sea level, Bandung has a short dry season with an average annual temperature of 26.8 °C. While other studies showed that a shipping container's effectiveness in providing a comfortable indoor environment in the hot-humid tropics is not very convincing, the study case in this paper indicates that having a right local climate and landscape could provide comfortable indoor temperature without any additional insulation. The application of adaptive reuse presents an opportunity to reduce carbon footprint as well as waste in the landfill. Many potentials can be achieved by having the right climate, landscape conditions, proper planning, and a good understanding of the shipping container.
