Review: These are the papers presented at the conference held in Poland in May 2001. Marine technology, particularly in the areas of ship design, building and operation, is experiencing rapid change in an increasingly competitive market. New technologies not only have to be developed, but rapidly incorporated into use in order that the industry remains competitive. The conference discussed traditional and modern techniques in the areas of: navigation and ship operation; shipbuilding and design; materials and fabrication in shipbuilding; ship propulsion, equipment and animation; management aspects; reliability and safety in marine technology; and deep sea systems and vehicles.
