    The Functional Structure Convergence of China's Coastal Ports

    sustainability Article The Functional Structure Convergence of China’s Coastal Ports Wei Wang 1,2,3, Chengjin Wang 1,* and Fengjun Jin 1 1 Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, CAS, Beijing 100101, China; [email protected] (W.W.); [email protected] (F.J.) 2 University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China 3 School of Geography, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 6 September 2017; Accepted: 23 November 2017; Published: 28 November 2017 Abstract: Functional structure is an important part of a port system, and can reflect the resource endowments and economic development needs of the hinterland. In this study, we investigated the transportation function of coastal ports in China from the perspective of cargo structure using a similarity coefficient. Our research considered both adjacent ports and hub ports. We found that the transportation function of some adjacent ports was very similar in terms of outbound structure (e.g., Qinhuangdao and Huanghua) and inbound structure (e.g., Huanghua and Tangshan). Ports around Bohai Bay and the port group in the Yangtze River Delta were the most competitive areas in terms of outbound and inbound structure, respectively. The major contributors to port similarity in different regions varied geographically due to the different market demands and cargo supplies. For adjacent ports, the functional convergence of inbound structure was more serious than the outbound. The convergence between hub ports was more serious than between adjacent ports in terms of both outbound and inbound structure. The average similarity coefficients displayed an increasing trend over time.

    The Advisability of High-Rise Construction in the City

    E3S Web of Conferences 33, 01037 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20183301037 HRC 2017 The advisability of high-rise construction in the city 1 2 3 Natalia Sergievskaya *, Tatyana Pokrovskaya and Natalya Vorontsova 1 Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, Yaroslavskoe shosse, 26, Moscow,129337, Russia 2 Moscow Polytechnic University, Bolshaya Semenovskaya str., 38, Moscow, 107023, Russia 3 Vyatka State University, Moskovskaya str., 36, Kirov, 610000, Russia Abstract. In this article there discusses the question of advisability high- rise construction, the reasons for its use, both positive and negative sides of it. On the one hand, a number of authors believe that it is difficult to avoid high-rise construction due to the limited areas in very large cities. On the other hand, a number of other authors draw attention to the problems associated with high-rise construction. The author of the article analyses examples of high-rise construction in several countries (UAE, Dubai "Burj Khalifa"; Japan "Tokyo Sky Tree"; United States of America, "Willis Tower"; Russia "Federation Tower") and proves the advisability of high-rise construction in the city. 1 Introduction Nowadays high-rise construction is becoming more and more actual in the world. This is due to the fact the urbanization urban space is increasing and there is also accelerated development of construction technologies and technology of engineering support of buildings. As it was considered in USSR and then in Russia, high-rise buildings have height of 75 m that is more 25 floors. As for other countries, high-rise buildings have height from 35 to 100 metres.

    REMOTE SENSING ANALYSIS OF THE STATUS OF THE BEIJING-HANGZHOU GRAND CANAL B. Deng H. Guo , C. Wang , Y. Nie, The Institute of Remote Sensing Applications, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China - [email protected] Commission VI, WG V/2 KEY WORDS: Image interpretation, Image understanding, Feature detection, Archaeology ABSTRACT: Remote sensing began with the use of aerial photography and is acknowledged as a valuable tool for viewing, analyzing, characterizing, and making decisions about our environment. The Grand Canal of China is the longest ancient canal in the world and recently approved as the Key National Relics-preservation Unit. In our work multi-source and multi-temporal remote sensing data, including the aerial photographs taken half a century ago and the recently acquired SPOT5 multispectral images and the RADARSAT-1 images are collected. Through a comparative and complementary analysis of the data sets, some findings are given. The general characteristics of the canal course and the canal cities are also described, which provides important information for the making plans of the Grand Canal preservation. 1. INTRODUCTION can provide radar images at the spatial resolution of 1 meter. The fourth advantage is the high spectral resolution. Now the Remote sensing, in the broadest sense, is the short or large-scale hyperspectral sensor can acquire image at hundreds of channels acquisition of information of an object or phenomenon, by the simultaneously, which can grasp the small changes of use of either recording or real-time sensing device(s) that is not reflectance and make possible the discrimination of some in physical or intimate contact with the object (such as by way targets.

    Embargoed until: 09:30 CET Paris Time – 18 March 2021 Trends in China Facts from the Renewables in Cities 2021 Global Status Report Key Renewable Energy Takeaways in 2020 from China • China is the greatest market in the world for solar PV1, with many of these developments taking place in urban areas and helping to decarbonise energy use in buildings; however, further efforts are needed to increase the share of renewables across sectors, including heating and cooling, but also power – especially in light of the expansion of e-mobility2. • The electrification of all transport modes has been pioneered in Chinese cities; they are visibly committed to the national EV ambition, providing complementary municipal-level subsidies (in addition to national incentives) for battery electric and fuel cell electric vehicles. • China is the second-largest producer of district heating (DH) in the world, and although these systems rely almost entirely on fossil fuels, some cities have been increasing solar thermal and geothermal heating capacity and use in their DH networks. Brand new data shows • Only 25 cities had renewable energy targets and/or policies from a global total of over 1,300 cities). This covers 321 million people, 38% of the urban population in China • On a global scale, Chinese cities are lagging behind on setting net-zero3 targets: some notable exceptions exist: 6 cities were developing net-zero targets in 2020, and Dalian set a target to achieve net-zero by 2050. Rizhao has had a target for climate neutrality by 2050 since 2008. Renewable Energy Developments in Chinese Cities City renewable energy commitments and policies • Most city-level targets and actions are in line with (and often part of the implementation of) national-level policy, including China’s commitment to reach carbon neutrality by 2060.

    Artificial Intelligence and Copyright Protection --Judicial Practice in Chinese Courts

    Artificial Intelligence and Copyright Protection --Judicial Practice in Chinese Courts ZHOU Bo Senior Judge of the IPR Division of the Supreme People’s Court of China In China, artificial intelligence (“AI”) has been widely used in innovative applications in many fields, resulting in tremendous efficiency and productivity. Not surprisingly AI related lawsuits arise and are being brought to Chinese courts for adjudication. Thanks to the kind invitation from the WIPO, I am honored to have the opportunity to talk about some latest court cases in China in this area. The key case I will highlight is a copyright dispute between Shenzhen Tencent Computer System Co., Ltd. (“Shenzhen Tencent”) and Shanghai Yingxun Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Yingxun”), which was adjudicated by Nanshan District People's Court, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province on December 24, 2019 (Shenzhen Tencent v. Shanghai Yingxun). A core issue here is whether AI-generated content is copyrightable or not? When analyzing this case, other related cases will also be mentioned. A. Basic facts Tencent Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (Beijing Tencent) has independently developed a set of data and algorithm-based intelligent writing assistance system called "Dreamwriter" to meet the needs of large-scale and personalized content businesses. Beijing Tencent has licensed the Dreamwriter computer software to the Plaintiff Shenzhen Tencent in this case. On August 20, 2018, Shenzhen Tencent first published a financial reporting article on the Tencent Securities website and noted at the end that: “This article was automatically written by Tencent's robot Dreamwriter”. The Defendant in this case, Shanghai Yingxun, without Tencent's permission and authorization, reprinted the article on its website on the day it was published.
