In this paper, the utilization of waste foundry sand produced in the molding process is studied as a backfill material for underground electric utility systems such as concrete box structures and pipe lines for power supply. The physical, chemical and thermal properties for waste foundry sand are investigated far mechanical stability, environmental hazard and power transmission capacity Also its properties are compared with those of the natural river sand. The test results show that waste foundry sand can be utilized for underground concrete box structures as a backfill material; however, it can not be applied to underground pipe lines due to high thermal resistivity or low power transmission capacity.

This study concentrates on a basic investigation research related to some of parameters to be used for the analysis of capacity and the level of service for signalized intersections. The parameters to be studied are ideal saturation flow rate, large vehicle's passenger car equivalent(PCE) ane the lane utilization factors of through and left turn vehicles. The field data were collected at six intersections in Seoul using video cameras so as to reflect conditions in urban areas. In this study discharge headway based on a rear bumper of each vehicle was used and all the parameters were estimated using a regression technique. The findings of this research are as follows : 1. The saturation headway and saturation flow rate on a single lane with the lane width of 3.1m are 1.652 seconds and 2,180 pcphgpl. It was found that the frist 5 vehicles in the queue experience some start-up lost time. 2. It was confirmed that the new method adopted for the estimate of large vehicle's PCE gives larger PCE values than those derived from the method commonly used. 3. For the estimate of lane utilization factors of through and left turn vehicles, a relationship was established and the corresponding formulas were developed.

Artificial intelligence relies on data-driven analysis, and the data processing performance strongly depends on factors such as memory capacity, bandwidth, and latency. Fast and large-capacity memory can be achieved by composing numerous high-performance memory units connected via high-performance interconnects, such as Compute Express Link (CXL). CXL is designed to enable efficient communication between central processing units, memory, accelerators, storage, and other computing resources. By adopting CXL, a composable computing architecture can be implemented, enabling flexible server resource configuration using a pool of computing resources. Thus, manufacturers are actively developing hardware and software solutions to support CXL. We present a survey of the latest software for CXL memory utilization and the most recent CXL memory emulation software. The former supports efficient use of CXL memory, and the latter offers a development environment that allows developers to optimize their software for the hardware architecture before commercial release of CXL memory devices. Furthermore, we review key technologies for improving the performance of both the CXL memory pool and CXL-based composable computing architecture along with various use cases.

In this study, It is suggested how to utilize hardware capacity sizing system for WEB, WAS, OLTP server's CPU, memory, and disk capacity by its user reasonably. To achieve goal of this study, we presented specific approaches in aspect of institutional viewpoint. The result of this study can be reflected gradually in the guideline of informatization related budgeting by MPB(Ministry of Planning and Budget) and e-government supporting program.

Due to environmental regulation and technical improvements, renewable energy sources (RES) are increasingly penetrated and operated in power systems. Clean energy technologies have become cost-competitive with conventional power systems, and in the near future, the generation cost of RES is expected to approach grid parity. In this situation, it should be considered an extraordinarily important issue to be maximized resulting in utilization of RES as well as to develop technologies for efficiency improvement of RES. Therefore, in this paper, the method for determining an optimal installed capacity and interconnected location of RES is proposed in order to minimize the cost of energy not supplied, which can contribute to improve distribution reliability.

It is an important issue to electric power system operations that it can reliably supply large-capacity power to consumption area as due to increasing power demand growth. For this purpose, The FACTS equipment based on Power IT technology with the existing mechanical compensators has been applied to power system. Therefore we suggest on this paper that a plan for coordination control of multiple power compensation equipment in order to increase the utilization of each facility and secure operation margin capacity. As the result of simulation, it is possible to cope actively with a suddenly changed power system. This helps greatly for the voltage stability and supply reliability in a suddenly changed power system.

Sewage treatment plants, consuming 1,756[GWh] which is 0.53[%] of national wide electricity consumption, is one of the electricity consuming facilites. At the research of electricity consumption and power quality analysis on sewage treatment plants, average utilization of transformer was less than 40[%] because peak load was very lower than its capacity due to excess capacity. So reduction of power loss can be achieved by transformer design optimization. The achievement in this research, is to meet reduction of power loss through optimizing the capacity and to improve as high efficiency-low loss transformer while the transformer is operating.

To evaluate the server performance and forecast capacity requirements, we carry out simulation of Multimedia-on-demand(MOD) server. In multimedia service environment, especially for on-demand service, one of the key problems is capacity planning, which requires ensuring that adequate computer resources will be available to meet the future workload demands in a cost-effective manner. In this paper, we design and implement a simulation model for MOD server with failures of components (e.g., processors, disks and networks). By acquisition of utilization and queue length parameters, we can estimate desirable capacity of server components with various arrival rates of customers and failure rates of components. For a given failure probability, we also compute packet delay probability and reliability of the server. It is possible to derive some important design information of the MOD server by using the above parameters.

The objective of this thesis to Provide a better insight into the effect of the amount of in-process storage has on the efficiency of production line with variable operation times. It is assumed that the material enters the line at the first work station and is then processed progressively through the line until it exits at the last work station, a finite amount of in-process storage is provided before all but the first work station of the line and the operation time of the work stations are statistically independent and follow exponential distribution. Under the above assumption, optimum allocation model is developed and following two approaches are used : 1) Given the available storage capacity, optimum allocation which minimizes the number of items in the line. 2) Given the available storage capacity, optimum allocation which. maximizes the utilization factor of the line. In a balanced three stage line, the production line efficiency is maximized under both categories when the second in-process storage is larger than the first.
