For deep submicron (DSM) very large scale integrated circuits (VLSI), it is well known that interconnects have become the dominant factor in determining the overall circuit performance. Buffer insertion is an effective technique of interconnect optimization. When a net has an excessive propagation delay, one or more buffers can be inserted to reduce the delay. Buffers also reduce the crosstalk between neighboring wires. While many conventional methods insert buffers net by net. we have developed new techniques in which buffer locations are simultaneously optimized for all nets. This is to avoid the difficulties in finding the right ordering of nets for buffer insertion. since several nets may compete for a buffer location. We also study buffer insertion with multiple fan-out nets to optimize critical path delay. Elmore delay model is used for delay calculation and the number of buffers for each net is determined to optimize the delay.

In this paper, we propose the design of an optimized fuzzy cascade controller for rotary inverted pendulum system by means of Hierarchical Fair Competition-based Genetic Algorithms (HFCGA) which is a kind of parallel genetic algorithms. The rotary inverted pendulum system is the system for controlling the inclination of pendulum axis through the adjustment of rotating arm. The control objective of the system is to control the position of rotating arm and to make the pendulum maintain the unstable equilibrium point of vertical position. To control rotary inverted pendulum system, we designs the fuzzy cascade controller scheme consisted of two fuzzy controllers and optimizes the parameters of the designed controller by means of HFCGA. A comparative analysis between the simulation and the practical experiment demonstrates that the proposed HFCGA based fuzzy cascade controller leads to superb performance in comparison with the conventional LQR controller as well as HFCGA based PD cascade controller.

Network Mobility Basic Support protocol enables mobile network to change their point of attachment to the Internet, but causes some problems such as suboptimal muting and multiple encapsulations. The proposed scheme, combining Prefix Delegation protocol with HMIPv6 concept can provide more effective route optimization and reduce the amount of packet losses and the burden of location registration for handoff. It also uses hierarchical mobile network prefix (HMNP) assignment and provides tree-based routing mechanism to allocate the location address of mobile network nodes (MNNs) and support micro-mobility. In this scheme, Mobility Management Router (MMR) not only maintains the binding informations for all MNNs in nested mobile networks, but also supports binding procedures to reduce the volume of handoff signals oyer the mobile network. The performance is evaluated using NS-2.

On the basis of structural analysis of the radial gate(that is, Tainter gate), this paper focuses on the optimization of the moment distribution according to the location of the arm of the radial gate. In spite of its importance from economical view point, we could hardly find the study on the optimum design of radial gate. Accordingly, the present study identifies the optimum section modulus for a radial arm along with the optimum position for 2 of 3 radial arms with a convex cylindrical skin plate relative to a given radius of the skin plate curvature, pivot point, water depth, ice pressure, etc. These optimum measurements are then compared with previously constructed radial gates. The results indicate that the optimum section modulus vague for a radial arm was appreciably smaller than the previously constructed examples.

This study leads to the shortcoming that the RSSI distance measurement method is easily affected by the external environment and the position error is large, leading to the problem of optimizing the distance values measured by the RSSI distance measurement nodes in this three-dimensional configuration environment. We proposed the CA-PSO-BP algorithm, which is an improved version of the CA-PSO algorithm. The proposed algorithm allows setting unknown nodes in WSN 3D space. In addition, since CA-PSO was applied to the BP neural network, it was possible to shorten the learning time of the BP network and improve the convergence speed of the algorithm through learning. Through the algorithm proposed in this study, it was proved that the precision of the network location can be increased significantly (15%), and significant results were obtained.

도시화가 진행됨에 따라 불투수지역이 늘어나는 등 개발전과 다른 지표 및 지표하 유출이 나타나며, 이러한 변화는 생태적, 수문학적으로 대규모 변화가 나타나는 것을 의미한다. 이에 따라 물관리, 물순환 등 물 지속 가능성은 대중의 관심을 받아 법, 제도가 변화하며 도시화에 대한 세심한 접근과 관리에 대한 계획이 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 저영향개발(Low Impact Development)은 이러한 도시화로 인해 발생될 수 있는 문제를 해결하기 위한 방안의 하나로 제안되고 있으며 첨두 및 유출총량을 완화하여 개발 이전 상태의 수문학적 기능을 유지하거나 물리학 및 생물학적 기작을 통해 오염물질의 저감효과도 나타나 대규모 도시개발 및 유역관리 사업에서 저영향개발기법의 적용이 점차 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 저영향개발기법 설치에 관한 구체적인 매뉴얼 또는 가이드라인이 부족한 실정이기 때문에 저영향개발기법이 계획단계에서 양적으로 무분별하게 적용되어 비용적 측면에서 시공자에게 부담을 가중시키는 등의 문제가 발생한다. 또한 시설의 위치에 따라 강우유출수 및 비점오염원 저감에 대한 효과가 상이하기 때문에 시설의 적정 위치선정 및 시설용량, 경제성을 고려한 시설효과 검토 등 저영향개발기법 적용시 사업부지 특성에 따른 최적화를 고려하여 계획 및 설계에 적용할 필요성이 있다. 이에 비용적 측면을 고려한 최적설계가 가능한 SWMM-ING(Storm Water Management Model - Low impact development desigN proGram)을 개발된 바 있다. SWMM-ING은 비전문가도 사용이 가능하도록 저영향개발기법 최적화과정이 간단하고 직관적이며 비용을 고려한 최적설계가 가능하도록 개발된 소프트웨어로 기법 적용시 개략적인 비용추정 및 배치선정 등 저영향개발기법의 설계최적화가 가능하다. 또한 각각의 저영향개발기법에 대한 초기설치비용, 유지관리비용, 이자율, 기대수명, 대상지역 내 공간적 위치를 반영하여 강우유출수 및 비점오염저감효과를 시나리오별로 제시가 가능한 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 SWMM-ING를 이용하여 대규모 도시개발부지의 저영향개발기법 적용에 따른 유량 및 수질저감효과를 평가하고 유지관리비를 포함한 비용을 추정하여 최적설계 검토를 수행하였다.

With an increasing trend toward high-rise modular construction, the simultaneous use of tower cranes at a modular construction site has recently been observed. Tower crane layout planning (TCLP) has a significant effect on cost, duration, safety and productivity of a project. In a modular construction project, particularly, poor decision about the layout of tower cranes is likely to have negative effects like additional employment of cranes and redesign, which will lead to additional costs and possible delays. It is, therefore, crucial to conduct thorough inspection of field conditions, lifting materials, tower crane capacity to make decisions on the layout of tower cranes. However, several challenges exist in planning for a multi-crane construction site in terms of safety and collaboration, which makes planning with experience and intuition complicated. This paper suggests a multi-objective optimization model for selection of the number of tower cranes, their models and locations, which minimizes cost and conflict. The proposed model contributes to the body of knowledge by showing the feasibility of using multi-objective optimization for TCLP decision-making process with consideration of trade-offs between cost and conflict.

Location Service is required in position-based routing for VANET to provide position information. We propose Grid-based Location service spot(GLSS) scheme for optimized routing path to improve accessibility and load balance in location service. Specific area is defined as Location service spot(LSS) on each grid in this scheme, and all nodes in the grid geocast its location update message and location request message to each LSS. Location request messages are flooded throughout LSSs, location reply messages establish optimized route from the source grid to the destination grid. We evaluated GLSS which establishes optimized route on the grid comparing GPSR in consideration of road condition and geographical features.

IMRT optimization method on multiple slice has been developed by using gradient based algorithm. On about 10-30 CT slices including treatment region of a patient, dose optimization has been performed slice by slice to meet the condition that each organ should be exposed below maximum tolerable doses and that the tumor dose within the range of 100$\pm$5 %. Field size was limited to 8$\times$8 cm$^2$ and in this condition, beam divergence was not taken into account to calculate dose distribution. Total dose distribution was calculated by superposing each beamlet whose dose distribution had been precalculated. In order to investigate beam number dependency, dose optimization was performed for one, three, five, seven, and nine coplanar beams and then each optimization index was evaluated. It is found that optimization time was proportional to number of slices to be optimized, and the most efficient plan was obtained from the case of three-to-seven incident beams with respect to calculation time and optimization index. In conclusion, dose optimization of multiple slice was able to be obtained by repeating dose optimization of single slice under condition that the beam size is not too large to ignore beam divergence. And it turns out that result of dose optimization was so sensitive to the position of isocenter that some method to optimize isocenter position is needed to improve it.
