Dr. Shun-Hsyung Chang received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from National Sun-Yat Sen University, Taiwan, in 1990. Afterwards, he served as an associate professor and has been a professor since 1997 in the Department of Electrical Engineering at National Taiwan Ocean University, Keelung, Taiwan, where he was the chairman 1998~2003. He also had served as the Vice President of National Kaohsiung Marine University, Kaohsiung, Taiwan, during 2003~2006. He is a professor in the Department of Microelectronic Engineering at this university presently. He was head of 3 grants in 2010-2017 on joint program of the Ministry of Science and Technology of Taiwan and the Russian Foundation for Basic Research. He has published over 250 scientific-technical publication, among them 11 monographs (3 books with Springer). His outstanding performance in research brought him great honor. In 1984, he was granted The Creative Youth prize by the Ministry of Education. He received the Long-Term Paper Award, organized by Acer Incorporated, in 1994, 1996 and 1998. He and his graduate students won the Third Prize of Graduate Team in TI-Taiwan 1994 DSP Design Championship. He also obtained the Distinguished Award in the contest of Special Topic of Communication System in graduate division held by the Ministry of Education in 2000. He contributes greatly in editorship. He was the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Marine Science and Technology 1998~2001, of which he is an editor at present. He is currently the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Ocean and Underwater Technology 2008-2017. His research interests include electrical engineering; electronics and communication engineering; signal, image, video and array processing; underwater and acoustic communication; underwater acoustics; Kalman filtering and detection.


Professor Yun-Hae Kim graduated from Department of Marine Engineering, Korea Maritime and Ocean University in 1983 (B.E.) and in 1987 (M.E.). Moreover, he graduated from Department of Mechanical Engineering, The University of Tokushima, Japan (M.E.) in 1990. He received PhD degree from Kyushu University in Mechanical Engineering, Japan by 1993. He worked at NIST, USA, as a visiting professor in 1997-1998, and his studies focused on the fabrication and evaluation of composite materials. He worked as research assistant (1985-1987) at Korea Maritime and Ocean University. He published over 150 papers in international and national journals. He joined over 60 conferences and symposia in international and national level as general speaker, invited speaker or keynote speaker. He founded two international conferences, namely, Asian Conference on Engineering Education (ACEE, 2009) and Asian Conference on Campus Sustainability (ACCS, 2015). He was a president of Korea Association of Green Campus Initiatives (KAGCI). He was the ex-Acting president of Korea Maritime and Ocean University, ex-Dean of Student Affairs and ex-Dean of Academic Affairs from 2014 to 2016. He was a conference chair of the Advanced Materials Development and Performance (AMDP2014). At that time, over 400 delegates participated in this conference. He was the editor of SCI journal, International Journal of Modern Physics B. Now, he is working as the Editor-in-Chiefs of the Journal of Ocean Engineering and Technology for 9 years and Nano Hybrids Composites. In particular, he joined in last five years (2013 - 2017) over 20 conferences as Keynote Speaker and Conference Co-Chairs. He is working as Director of Idea Factory Center at KMOU. He received many awards: Ministry of Science and Technology (Jang Young Sil Best Award, Korea), Ministry of Science and Technology, Korea, Distinguished Professor Award, The Korean Society of Engineering Education, Distinguished Service Medal, The Korean Society of Engineering Education, Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (Ministry Award, Engineering Education Innovation Field), Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, Korea, Best Paper Award, ICPNS, Seattle, USA. His research interests include R&D of novel materials and composites based on polymer materials (in particular, environmental characteristics), fracture mechanics and strength evaluations, ocean applications of advanced materials and composites.
