Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the increasing volume of global maritime trade, the scale of the shipping industry is expanding and the number of ships is also increasing, all of which has led to persistently high maritime accident rates. Consequently, effective management and control measures are needed to ensure the safe and efficient operation of ships in waterways. On the other hand, cutting-edge technologies, such as big data, the Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence provide new opportunities to develop improved marine transportation systems. This Special Issue focuses on the critical aspects of managing and controlling ship traffic to ensure the safety, efficiency, energy conservation, and sustainability of maritime transportation. Therefore, the scope of research for this Special Issue includes but is not limited to traffic flow optimization, collision avoidance systems, ship motion control, intelligent traffic management systems, and human factors influencing ship traffic behavior and emerging intelligent ship technologies.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
