It concerns a complementary approach to current practices and its aim is to provide more information mainly to ship-owners that consider the feasibility of deploying Ro-Ro Passenger ferries. The paper examines a typical semi-conventional RoPax ferry operating in the Aegean Sea. It addresses important economic, operational and procedural issues concerning risk evaluation. The current status is that risk is a notion still strange to main stakeholders. The Greek practice in performing a feasibility study for a project draws on investor＇s experience and feeling aided by a preliminary economic study. The main thesis of this paper is that there are alternative techniques to evaluate investment risk and measure profitability of a project. A Monte Carlo simulation in collaboration with a typical Ro-Ro cash-flow model is implemented to reveal the extent of risk and provide a useful tool for the assessment of future investments in Greek Short Sea Shipping.展开更多

This correspondence shows a general upper bound on k-error joint N-adic complexity of periodic multisequences over Z/(N), and establishes the existence of periodic N-adic multisequences over Z/(N) which simultaneously possess maximal joint N-adic complexity and large k-error joint N-adic complexity. Under some conditions the overwhelming majority of all T-periodic N-adic multisequences over Z/(N) with maximal joint N-adic complexity logN(NT- 1)have a k-error joint N-adic complexity close to logN(NT- 1).展开更多
