The Study Of Technology Progress In Bulk Shipping

At present, new technologies, represented by the information technology (IT), are going into every field in our society economics. In this paper, we mainly talk about the trend of technology progress development in shipping industry in the future and especially study the influences from the developing technology to the bulk shipping company. By using the Dynamic systems as the evaluated method, the paper discusses the promotion effects to the bulk shipping companies' economic level from technology progress.Firstly, this paper begins with the intention and the features of the technology progress and makes it clear that the paper will discuss the influences from technology progress to the bulk shipping industry, from the macroscopic and the microcosmic perspective. At the same time, it talks about the significance of this paper.Then, the paper summarizes the present developing conditions from two aspects, the world transportation industry and the international shipping industry. We are focused on five factors that influence the shipping industry, that is, the technology of shipping, navigation, port and channel, transportation and information. With the developing trend of the world new technology, this paper prospects the development of the international shipping technology progress.What is more, the paper aims at the international bulk shipping. Through a great deal of analysis about the cases, the paper studies the developing trend of bulk shipping industry from four aspects: shipping technology, transportation technology, management technology and information technology. In this part, the paper attaches importance on Electronic Commerce, one hot spot in shipping technology progress. We also use many cases, from bulk shipping companies' Electronic Commerce internet stations and electronic trade public platforms, to talk about Electronic Commerce's development in bulk shipping industry in the future.At last, the paper evaluated the promotion effects from technology progress in the bulk shipping companies, using dynamic system as the evaluated method. In the present studies, production function is the main technology progress studying method. In this method, technology progress level is a remained quantity and it contains many factors, which have different proportions. As a result, evaluating the enterprises' technology progress economics only by manmade cannot report the practice conditions comprehensively. In relation to microcosmic enterprises, production function also cannot define each mechanism's functions in technology progress of an enterprise. Besides, technology progress is an accumulating procedure and its influences in economics are being showed in a long period. For all these consideration, we choose dynamic system as our evaluating method, founding SD model. According to the feature of the bulk shipping company, the paper talks about technology progress economic beneficial from four aspects: shipping technology, transportation technology, personnel and management technology.
