      <title>COAST GUARD TIGHTENS VESSEL TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/153374</link>
      <description><![CDATA[A decade after introduction in U.S. waters, Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) systems play a continually increasing (and continually criticized) role in ship operations.  A brief update is provided on U.S.  VTS management, including the new VTS center for the port of New York.]]></description>

      <title>MARINE TRAFFIC SYSTEMS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/49924</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The Proceedings and supplement volumes contain 39 papers and summaries of talks presented at the Symposium.  Scientific, technological and legislative aspects are covered.  Among the specific subjects in the papers are traffic control systems in various European ports, psychological and economic aspects of traffic regulation, freedom of navigation, radar plotters, shore-based radar, training by personnel for marine traffic systems, and others.  Selected papers are indexed separately.]]></description>

      <title>COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS FOR VESSEL TRAFFIC SYSTEMS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/53237</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The application of cost-benefit analysis for the evaluation of proposed large-scale public projects is well known and documented in the literature.  This paper examines cost and benefit factors for performing such an analysis from the viewpoint of a vessel traffic system within the context of three criteria frequently encountered in public financing. They are: the net present value, the net present value index, and the benefit-cost ratio.]]></description>

      <title>SAFETY AND EFFICIENCY IMPLICATIONS OF A NEW ROTTERDAM-EUROPOORT VESSEL TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/53242</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The Rotterdam Port Management has started the development of a new Vessel Traffic Management System (VTMS). Phase 1 of the project is now underway, in which basic studies will be performed to provide a firm basis for the new set-up.  The paper discusses the VTMS in general, the preliminary studies connected with it, benefit-cost analysis, a traffic simulation model to study various levels of control and associated benefits, and the proposed project development strategy.]]></description>

      <title>SOME ECONOMIC ASPECTS OF PORT TRAFFIC REGULATION</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/53252</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The problem of congestion in port approaches will become more serious in the future and will present the possibility of several alternative solutions.  This paper identifies the nature of these alternatives as well as the economic characteristics of congestion.  Port traffic regulation is part of the overall economic problem of deciding what capacity should be provided over time and how that capacity should be allocated between port users.  Maximization of the difference between capacity costs including regulation costs and the value of reduced delay resulting therefrom should be the objective of any system.]]></description>
