During 1986-2006, fisheries in Tonkin Gulf had made rapid development. Total engine power increased 11.6 times while total catch only increased 2.9 times. Big increase in number of fishing boats has resulted to the overexploitation in near shore waters since 1995 and this situation has been spread out all over...
We studied the problem of resource allocation in large scale distributed applications such as Online Social Networks (OSN) and Cloud Computing. In such settings, resource allocation schemes need to efficient as well as adaptive to the time-varying environments. The abstract resource allocation problem concerns with how to optimally use resources...
This study uses hedonic price approach to investigate how price of mussel is formed. The model uses 8896 observations (transactions) from auction market in Yeserke, the Netherland. The results show that product attributes such as meat content, size of the mussel, time and location of harvest are important information determining...
This study analyzes supply and demand system for the mussels in the EU
markets. The results show that farmed and wild quantity of two main
species of mussels, Mytilus edulis and Mytilus galloprovincialis, have
declined in recent years due to limits of seed and space. However, a
demand system analysis...
The long history of the van chai system of Vietnam began several centuries ago with their establishment mainly in the lower and middle reaches of rivers northern Vietnam and in coastal lagoons in Central Vietnam, whereas those in marine embayments, like Ha Long Bay, and in enclosed coastal areas, like...
Thousands of small man-made water reservoirs (water bodies with water surface
from five to some hundreds ha) have been developed in mountainous regions for water
supplying or hydroelectricity purpose, these areas are usually residence of poor,
backward minority groups which often lacks of food supplying resources. Development of
fisheries (both...
This study extends Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to investigate the motivation to consume fish in a representative survey of Vietnamese individuals. The emperical study is based on using the structural equation approach to test construct valitidy of measures and the emperical fit of theoretical model. The results show that...
Unlike the North and the South where abundance of freshwater, the marine capture fisheries is underdeveloped, the Central Coast, especially South Central Coast with little freshwater fisheries resources, but high amount of shrimps, fishes at sea, thus local fishermen have exploited this resource for living early. Together with this living...
Network coding is a transmission paradigm that is known to achieve better network throughput in certain multicast topologies; however, the practicality of network coding has been questioned due to its high computational complexity. One of the drawbacks of using network coding is the long decoding times, this is mainly due...
Media application on the internet has become more and more popular as the bandwidth of the network links increase. The bottleneck of the existing media systems is no longer the link bandwidth at user’s end, but the server’s ability to handle streaming requests. These existing streaming systems do not scale...
We investigate a number of techniques for increasing throughput and quality of media applications over wireless networks. A typical media communication application such as video streaming imposes strict requirements on the delay and throughout of its packets, which unfortunately, cannot be guaranteed by the underlying wireless network due inherently to...
Modern communication systems often have the ability to transmit signals on multiple communication mediums (e.g., RF, visible light) or interfaces (e.g., MAC layer protocols) at the same time. While each channel has different characteristics, a centralized controller with channel condition information will be able to schedule the resource allocated to...
This study applied brand choice model and stated preference data collected in French context by means of choice experiment to investigate value of intrinsic and extrinsic attributes of various fresh seafood species. The estimated models show that the extrinsic attributes (i.e. product forms, production method, and product origin) and intrinsic...
Demand structure and market segmentation for seafood have been investigated intensively. However, most the researches so far applied traditional demand analysis and descriptive segmentation approach by separated models. The traditional demand analysis assuming consumer homogeneity, behavior consistence, and using aggregate data may result biased estimation, while the segmentation based on...
Until a few years ago, wireless-capable laptops were considered novelties by many. It is now hard to find a laptop or a hand-held computing device that is not wireless-ready. As wireless devices are becoming commodities, they have also become an indispensable part of the modern society. Not surprisingly, research in...
The classical store-and-forward routing has and will continue to be the most important routing architecture in many modern packet-switched communication networks. In a packet-switched network, data is sent in the form of discrete packets that traverse hop-by-hop from a source to a destination. At each intermediate hop, the router stores...
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...
There are generally two types of multiview video:(1) 3D Multiview Video (“3D MVV” also called “2D plus delta” or “stereo” multi-view video): 3D MVV is widely deployed in cinemas and in the TV industry. 3D MVV typically entails capturing video of an object using two cameras with differing view angles...
Approximately ninety percent of urban Vietnamese households are connected to septic tanks, from which up to three-quarters of the sludge is reported to be dumped into waterways in residential areas. Vietnam has a considerable prevalence of antibiotic misuse and resultant antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) in the human microbiome. Due to the...
Southwest Atlantic (SWA), corresponding to FAO Area 41, covers a total surface area of 17.65 million square kilometres. It spans from 5°N latitude off the coast of Brazil, to 60°S latitude off the coast of Argentina. Most of the area is classified as High-Seas, defined by the Convention of the...
