The study investigates the innovations in communication and navigation that ship owners will be required to adopt for more effective means of operation to successfully compete in the shipping business. The report analyzes the use of satellites in providing accurate communication and global navigation, anti-collision radar data computer systems, and the general purpose shipboard computer as an aid in the operation of the new faster and larger ships. The study explores the possibilities to increase ship productivity and provides conclusions and recommendations for further consideration.
