Recent advances in wireless technologies have helped the proliferation of wireless devices, ranging from hand-held devices such as cellular phones to more powerful mobile computing platforms as such laptops [1]. Along with that, the end users’
applications running on these devices, ranging from text message to multimedia applications such as...
Economic indicators are needed for future knowledge-based fisheries management in Vietnam. This entails a good data collecting and processing system. This paper contributes to this requirement for the tuna-mackerel gillnet fishery, near-shore and offshore, in Nha Trang, South-Central Vietnam. For 2005 and 2006 fifty vessels were surveyed for technical characteristics,...
Vietnam’s marine fisheries are in need of knowledge-based management. This necessitates the establishment of
reliable indicators, which in turn entails a good data collecting and processing system. To bridge the gap between
specific requirements for fisheries policy development and the limited resources available, we have conducted a
study on costs...
Aquaculture in Vietnam has a long tradition. So far, this industry has been dominated by fresh water and brackish water aquaculture. Cage culture in marine waters has been developed more recently. With a coastline of 3260 km and an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of more than one million square km,...
In supervised learning, label information can be provided at different levels of granularity. For small datasets, it is possible to acquire a label for each data instance. However, in the big-data regime, this fine granularity approach is prohibitively costly. For example, in semi-supervised learning, only a limited number of samples...
Khanh Hoa, featured by advantageous conditions from both nature and humans, has long enjoyed great potentials for fisheries development. The most immediate evidence can be cited is that the fisheries industry
made significant contributions to the local economic growth during the recent period of 2001- 2006, and impressive figures in...
There are about 332 seafood processing enterprises in Vietnam by the end of 2003, of which 100 enterprises have EU-CODE and 135 enterprises apply HACCP. Main products are frozen shrimp (47.7%), frozen fish (21.1%), frozen octopus and squid (5.1%); value added products increase gradually and take up over 30% of...
From 1991 to 2003, number of fishing boats increased from 43,940 to 83,122. The average power per boat increased from 18HP/boat to 49.3HP/boat. Fishing productivity seems to be gradually decreased from 0.89ton/HP to 0.35ton/HP. In this period, the yield of marine fisheries has been constantly increased with an annual average...
Vietnam’s policy is to shift the fishing pressure from onshore to offshore water since the coastal resource has been overexploited, and a programme for investing in offshore vessels has thus been implemented since 1997. The question raised is whether the offshore fishing fleet is profitable and efficient or not? This...
Pangasius culture in recent years has proved its ability to contribute to national wealth and prosperity. As far as domestic consumption is concerned, pangasius represents an important source of nutrient intake for a large portion of the population. Multiple effects have been generated through large-scale exports, which is associated with...
