In mobile computing environments, data broadcasting is widely used to resolve the problem of limited power and bandwidth of mobile equipments. However, the previous broadcast scheduling methods can be inefficient in the environment where the user requests change dynamically since they are based on static data requests. Moreover, a high-priority user can wait long for infrequently requested data because they never consider the priority of listeners. In this paper, we propose a new broadcast scheduling method that reflects dynamic changes of user requests using user profiles. It also reflects user priorities to reduce the access time of high-priority users. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method through simulation.

In this paper, we had developed an algorithm that can cope with all the economic variables that may occur in the operation of PV-ESS system by developing the algorithm for the operation method of PV-ESS connected system. Based on this, the optimal operation schedule of PV-ESS was decided to minimize the electric charges of customers. Through this, we developed a three-dimensional dynamic planning method based on case generation to determine the optimal PV-ESS operation schedule stably even when exogenous variables change.

Energy efficiency is critical for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) since sensor nodes usually have very limited energy supply from battery. Sleep scheduling and nodes cooperation are two of the most efficient methods to achieve energy conservation in WSNs. In this paper, we propose an adaptive energy optimization approach for target tracking applications, called Energy-Efficient Node Coordination (EENC), which is based on the grid structure. EENC provides an unambiguous calculation and analysis for optimal the nodes cooperation theoretically. In EENC, the sleep schedule of sensor nodes is locally synchronized and globally unsynchronized. Locally in each grid, the sleep schedule of all nodes is synchronized by the grid head, while globally the sleep schedule of each grid is independent and is determined by the proposed scheme. For dynamic sleep scheduling in tracking state we propose a multi-level coordination algorithm to find an optimal nodes cooperation of the network to maximize the energy conservation while preserving the tracking performance. Experimental results show that EENC can achieve energy saving of at least 38.2% compared to state-of-the-art approaches.

The purpose of this paper is to describe an effective cell scheduling system for flexible manufacturing cells. Based on the FMC characteristics, cell scheduling can be defined as a dynamic modified flow shop working in a real-time system. This paper attempt to find the optimal cell scheduling when minimizing the mean flow time for n-job/m-machine problems in static and dynamic environments. Real-time scheduling in an FMC environment requires rapid computation of the schedule.

This Paper Presents a new methodology for Direct Load Control(DLC) and Unit Commitment. To consider economical effect of DLC, we developed 3-Dimensional dynamic programming which can combine unit commitment and DLC. Traditional dynamic programming has 2-Dimensional which consist of state and stage, but newly developed dynamic programming has DLC state, U.C. state, and stage. As a result, economical DLC and unit commitment schedule of the power system is possible. This method is applied to the test system, and the usefulness of the method is verified.

We are witnessing rapid increase of the number of wireless devices available today such as cell phones, PDAs, Wibro enabled devices. Because of the inherent limitation of the bandwidth available for wireless channels, broadcast systems have attracted the attention of the research community. The main problem in this area is to develop an efficient broadcast program. In this paper, we propose a dynamic broadcast method that overcomes the limitations of static broadcast programs. It optimizes the scheduling based on the probabilistic model of user requests. We show that dynamic broadcast system can indeed improve the quality of service using user requests. This paper extends our previous work in [1] to include more thorough explanation of the proposed methodology and diverse performance evaluation models.

This paper considers a variation of the customer order scheduling problem, and the variation is the case where the machine-job assignment is fixed. We examine the parallel machine environment, and the objective is to minimize the sum of the completion times of the batches. While a machine can process only one job at a time, different machines can simultaneously process different jobs in a batch. The recognition version of this problem is known to be NP-complete in the strong sense even if there exist only two parallel machines. When there are an arbitrary number of parallel machines, we establish three lower bounds and develop a dynamic programming (DP) algorithm which runs in exponential time on the number of batches. We present two simple but intuitive heuristics, SB and GR, and find some special cases where SB and GR generate an optimal schedule. We also find worst case upper bounds on the relative error. For the case of the two parallel machines, we show that GR generates an optimal schedule when processing times of all batches are equal. Finally, the heuristics and the lower bounds are empirically evaluated.

Purpose: Ground source heat pump system has been attracted in the horticulture industry for the reduction of energy costs and the increasing of farm income. Even though it has higher initial costs, if it uses in combination with heat storage, it is able to reduce the initial costs and operate efficiently. In order to have significant effect of heat storage type ground source heat pump system, it is required to design the capacity considering various conditions such as energy load pattern and operating schedule. Method: In this study, we have designed heat storage type ground source heat pump system in 5 cases by the operating schedule, and examined the system to find the most economic and having superb performance regarding the system COP(Coefficient of Performance) and energy consumption, using dynamic energy simulation, TRNSYS 17. Result: Conventional ground source heat pump system has lower energy consumption than heat storage type, but following the result of LCC(Life Cycle Cost) analysis, the heat storage type was more economic due to the initial costs. In addition, it has the most efficient performance and energy costs in the case of the smallest heat storage time.

In this paper, we are proposed ECOPS(Energy Conserving optimal Path Schedule) algorithm that according to ALPS(Ad hoc network Localized Positioning System) algorithm the location information is received and the new head node is selected considering the energy efficiency. The proposed algorithm follows RODMRP(Resilient Ontology-based Dynamic Multicast Routing Protocol) structure, that is the hierarchic cluster structure. And by using the location information of the node, it maintains the cluster which the energy is efficient with the production. It increases the life time of the total routing structure.
