MINOE: A Software Tool to Analyze Ocean Management Efforts in the Context of Ecosystems

Transitioning ocean governance into an integrated ecosystem-based approach requires improved knowledge of existing governance arrangements. This article presents a software tool, MINOE, to assist policymakers, scientists, and others involved in ecosystem-based management initiatives to navigate through management documents as they relate to a user-defined ecosystem. The tool uses a conceptually modeled ecosystem, defined by the user, and text analysis of a set of management-related documents to determine which ecosystem linkages are potentially acknowledged in the documents. For illustration, the set of documents included with MINOE currently (and used to demonstrate the software in this article) are laws and regulations from four geopolitical jurisdictions for the year 2006; however, users may also import other documents for a more tailored application. Features include an interactive matrix containing results about the set of management documents within the user's scope and scale of interest. In addition, MINOE includes metrics and visualization tools to synthesize information derived from the documents. The article presents the software tool, describes potential uses for the tool, and ends with a discussion of future work to expand the program.     

劳动合同纠纷案之四(劳动关系的确定)

合同制船员与劳务外派公司签署劳务协议后,通过劳务外派公司的安排到实际用工单位即船公司的船上工作并与船公司签署了劳动合同。船员、劳务外派公司、船公司这三者是什么法律关系?当发生了劳动合同纠纷时,各自有什么权利、义务?文章给予了明晰的解释。     

劳动纠纷案之二（船员患病的处理）

某船员准备上船之前,在例行程序体检时结果显示其尿常规二项重要指标异常,不适航.但经其要求,船公司向其签发了健康证并办理了相关的上船手续.该船员在船期间未有生病记录,也从未向船舶领导或公司提出下船看病或休假的要求.但在船员正常下船公休后,感觉身体不舒服,到医院检查结果显示:双肾弥慢性病变,诊断为"慢性肾炎"等.据此,船员及家属要求公司按照工伤处理,并提出高额的赔偿要求.某船员的要求是否合理?此种情况适用哪个法律?船公司赔他多少才合理?源海律师事务所的"源海说法"给读者作出评析.     

Impacts of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on time use and travel behavior: a structural equations analysis

The objective of this paper is to contribute an empirical study to the literature on transportation impacts of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT). The structural equation model (SEM) is employed to analyze the impacts of ICT usage on time use and travel behavior. The sample is derived from the travel characteristic survey conducted in Hong Kong in 2002. The usage of ICT is defined as the experience of using e-mail, Internet service, video conferencing and videophone for either business or personal purposes. The results show that the use of ICT generates additional time use for out-of-home recreation activities and travel and increases trip-making propensity. Individuals at younger age or with higher household income are found to be more likely ICT users. The findings of this study provide further evidence on the complementarity effects of ICT on travel, suggesting that the wide application of ICT probably leads to more, not less, travel. The study also demonstrates the importance of considering the interactions between activity and travel for better understanding of the nature and magnitude of the impacts of ICT on time use and trip making behavior.     

由桥梁动力响应识别过桥汽车参数的灵敏度方法

为了识别通过桥梁汽车的参数,提出了在灵敏度分析的基础上由简支梁桥动力响应识别过桥汽车参数的方法。将汽车抽象为两自由度五参数模型,用有限元方法计算桥梁的动力响应。从对未知参数的猜测值开始,由测试或模拟计算的动力响应用最小二乘法和规则化技巧识别过桥汽车参数,用邻近两次识别参数的百分相对误差(RPE)控制迭代过程的终止。由数值模拟结果可知,识别得到的汽车参数是令人满意的,其中质量的识别精度最高,表明该方法识别过桥汽车参数可行。
