Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster)-seed oil contains two Delta5 unsaturated polymethylene interrupted fatty acids (all cis-5,9, 12-18:3 and all cis-5,11,14-20:3 acids) one of which resembles eicosapentaenoic acid. The goal of the present study was to test whether maritime pine-seed oil consumption affects HDL and apolipoprotein (Apo) A-I levels as well as the ability of serum to promote efflux of c...

Maritime traffic patterns extraction is an essential part for maritime security and surveillance and DBSCANSD is a density based clustering algorithm extracting the arbitrary shapes of the normal lanes from AIS data. This paper presents a parallel DBSCANSD algorithm on top of Apache Spark. The project is an experimental research work and the results shown in this paper is preliminary. The exper...

Today’s and future communication systems in maritime rely on digital data communication between the ship and transceivers that are either on land, in air (satellite) or on sea. Analog voice communications is not an integrated part of future maritime communication system proposals. However, it is in general preserved in its functionality according to future maritime communication system proposal...

The maritime domain has the goal to harmonize heterogeneous systems and integrate new approaches into existing structures. In this paper we discuss the need for architectural methodology to overcome the challenge to coordinate the development of new systems considering technology issues, governance aspects and users between existing architectures in the maritime domain. We introduce already app...

Maritime transport is composed of the maritime shipping and the ports dimensions. Areas of focus include establishing a vision for the future of maritime transport; identifying the innovative technologies, business models and policies that will drive change; overcoming barriers to innovation; and establishing governance structures at the global and national levels to foster the innovations that...

In this paper we present an approach which aims to support learners in general and environmental decision makers in particular, towards effective decision making in maritime environmental pollution via education and awareness of specific maritime environmental pollution policies. We build on previous work concerning the automatic construction of multiple-choice questions from ontologies (automa...

The U.S. FDA defines whole grains as consisting of the intact, ground, cracked, or flaked fruit of the grains whose principal components, the starchy endosperm, germ, and bran, are present in the same relative proportions as they exist in the intact grain. We evaluated the effect of applying the FDA definition of whole grains to the strength of scientific evidence in support of claims for risk ...

Laser beam propagation in maritime environment is particularly challenging, not only for scattering and absorption due to high humidity, but also for a different behavior of atmospheric turbulence with respect to terrestrial propagation. Recently, a new power spectrum for the fluctuations of the refractive index in the Earth’s atmosphere has been introduced to describe maritime atmospheric turb...
