This document discusses social negotiation through positive and negative sanctions. It explains that sanctions are rewards or punishments for actions that reinforce or change behavior. Positive sanctions like rewards encourage existing behavior, while negative sanctions like punishments discourage behavior. Through this process of reacting positively or negatively to others' actions, cultural norms and values are preserved or changed. Both formal and informal sanctions exist in social groups to provide social control and order.
The document discusses key elements of culture including norms, sanctions, and values. It defines norms as standards of behavior maintained by a society, and classifies norms as either formal/informal or mores/folkways. Sanctions are penalties for violating norms, while values represent collective concepts of what is good, desirable, or proper in a society. Together, norms, sanctions, and values shape behavior and social order within a culture.

It describes the role of shore control centers in monitoring and assisting autonomous ships.
The document provides an overview of Unit 1 which covers the management of shipping operations. It discusses 5 learning outcomes, including analyzing the role of port authorities in managing seaports. The role of port authorities involves complying with the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code, which establishes security measures to enhance ship and port security. Key aspects of the code include vessel and facility security assessments and plans, appointment of security officers, and regulations regarding security levels and alarm systems. The code aims to establish an international framework for cooperation on maritime security.
Currently, fleet management solutions focus on ship tracking but do not utilize shipboard data, which could be useful for evaluating and improving navigation safety. The document proposes integrating shipboard data like AIS into a fleet management platform. This could provide near real-time vessel tracking, situation awareness, early warning alerts, and help improve safe navigation. It describes how shipboard AIS data could be analyzed using the PARK model to assess collision risk levels and transmit warnings to vessels in a fleet when risk thresholds are exceeded.
