Abstract: Provided is a ventilating apparatus for a drill ship, which allows a drill ship sailing around an arctic region to maintain appropriate temperature and pressure. The ventilating apparatus for the drill ship includes: a derrick forming an enclosed space blocked from the exterior; a moonpool formed under the derrick; an air supply device supplying outside air to the moonpool or the derrick; and an air exhaust device exhausting the supplied outside air out of the top of the derrick.

Abstract: Provided is an arctic ship with a derrick, which can stably maintain an internal environment of an enclosed derrick. The arctic ship with a derrick includes: the derrick forming an enclosed space blocked from outside air; a moonpool coupled to a lower portion of the derrick to communicate with the derrick and blocked from the outside air; and an air supply/exhaust device installed to communicate an inner space of the derrick or the moonpool with the exterior, wherein air condition of the inner space is maintained or controlled at a predetermined range by the air supply/exhaust device.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for transferring optical data in an optical switching system using time synchronization. The apparatus performs time synchronization on optical data to input the optical data at regular intervals through fiber delay line for time synchronization respectively disposed on input ports. Therefore, the apparatus can efficiently reduce a data blocking rate in comparison with a conventional optical switching system using an asynchronous electric buffer without a synchronous process, and achieve the same performance as conventional asynchronous technology despite using fewer wavelength converters and buffers, thus reducing system cost. In addition, using dynamic time synchronization modules, the apparatus performs time synchronization for minute time variation due to an environment such as temperature.

Abstract: In an apparatus and method for transferring data bursts in an optical burst switching network, a control module connected between demultiplexers and multiplexers obtains information in control packets of data bursts to sort and confirm service classes of the data bursts according to delay time and blocking rate. A switching unit switches the data bursts to an output port of a corresponding destination node. A first buffer delays data bursts from the control module once by a preset delay time according to output resource availability and sends them to the output port when the data bursts are sensitive to delay time. A second buffer circulates and delays the sorted and confirmed data bursts up to a preset limit according to output resource availability and then sends the data bursts to the output port when the data bursts are insensitive to delay time.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for transferring optical data in an optical switching system are provided. When optical data input to a node are in contention, the optical data are converted from optical signals to electrical signals and temporarily stored. When an output resource is available, the stored optical data are converted to the available output resource and transmitted to a desired destination node. This overcomes the buffering depth limit that is observed when a conventional optical fiber delay line is used. Accordingly, an optical data loss rate can be reduced such that optical data can be efficiently transferred. Further, non-contending optical data are directly delivered to output resource by the switching unit, thereby reducing the cost of optical/electrical conversion and wavelength conversion and enabling the apparatus to be implemented at low cost.
