This paper suggests a detailed design of APS(Advanced Planning & Scheduling) system using the DBR (Drum-Buffer-Rope) which is a finite capacity scheduling logic of TOC(Theory of Constraints). Our design is composed of four modules; Network, Buffer, Drum and Subordination. The Network module defines the Product Network which is built from BOM and routings. The Buffer module inserts the Buffers into the Product Network. The Drum module describes detail procedures to create Drum Schedule on the CCR(Capacity Constraint Resource). The Subordination module synchronizes all non-constraints to the constraints by determining the length of Rope. This design documented by ARIS.

In this paper, we consider characteristics of waiting times in s1n91e-server 3-node tandem queues with finite buffers, a Poisson arrival process and deterministic service times at all nodes. There are three buffers : one at the first node is infinite and the others are finite. We obtain the fact that sojourn time or departure process is independent of the capacities of the finite buffers and does not depend on the order of service times, which are the same results in the literature. Moreover, the explicit expressions of stationary waiting times in all areas of the systems can be derived as functions of the finite buffer capacities. We also disclose a relationship of waiting times in subareas of the systems between two blocking policies communication and manufacturing. Some numerical examples are also provided.

Finite difference schemes are considered for a $Ca^{2+}$ diffusion equations with damping and convection terms, which describe $Ca^{2+}$ buffering by using stationary and mobile buffers. Stability and $L^{\infty}$ error estimates of approximate solutions for the corresponding schemes are obtained using the extended Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem.

Finite difference schemes are considered for a nonlinear $Ca^{2+}$ diffusion equations with stationary and mobile buffers. The scheme inherits mass conservation as for the classical solution. Stability and $L^{\infty}$ error estimates of approximate solutions for the corresponding schemes are obtained. using the extended Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem.

This paper concerns the kinematic characteristics of a coupling device in a deep-seabed mining system. This coupling device connects the buffer system and the flexible pipe. The motion of the buffer system, flexible pipe and mining robot are affected by the coupling device. So the coupling device should be considered as a major factor when this device is designed. Therefore, we find a stable kinematic device, and apply it to the design coupling device through this study. The kinematic characteristics of the coupling device are analyzed by multi-body dynamics simulation method, and finite element method. The dynamic analysis model was built in the commercial software DAFUL. The Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) method is applied to build the deep-seabed environment. Hydrodynamic force and moment are applied in the dynamic model for the FSI method. The loads and deformation of flexible pipe are estimated for analysis results of the kinematic characteristics.

본 논문에서는 캐슁 용량이 정해져 있는 프락시 서버의 효과적인 스케일러블 캐슁 알고리즘을 제안한다. 압축 효율 향상을 위해 엔트로피 코더를 사용하는 동영상 압축기의 특성과 움직임이 일정하지 않은 동영상 자체의 특성 때문에 동영상 데이터는 VBR(Variable Bit Rate) 성질을 가지고 있다. 이러한 VBR트래픽은 네트워크에 많은 부하를 주며, 네트워크에 부담을 줄이기 위해 CBR(Constant Bit Rate)로 전송하였을 때는 클라이언트에 보다 큰버퍼를 요구하며 또한 응답시간 지연이 발생할 수 있다. . 이러한 문제를 왜결하기 위한 한가지 방법으로 프락시 서버를 이용한 캐슁 방법이 제시되었다. 캐슁 방법을 사용하였을 때 클라이언트에서 요구되는 버퍼크기와 대역폭은 캐슁한 프레임의 크기와 위치에 따라 결정된다. 이러한 사실을 고려하여 정규화된 버퍼크기(Normalized Buffer Size)를 기초로 캐슁할 프레임을 선택함으로써, 효율적으로 버퍼크기와 대역폭을 줄일 수 있는 캐슁 기법을 제안한다. 마지막으로 실험결과에서 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘을 사용하였을 때 요구되는 대역폭은 Prefix caching과 거의 같으면서 요구되는 버퍼크기는 SCQ에 비해 10-35\%$ 개선된 것을 보인다.

This study investigates the creep behavior of bentonite-sand mixtures as potential buffer materials for low-level radioactive waste (LLW) repositories, with a specific case study in Taiwan. To assess the long-term hydro-mechanical properties, constant-volume swelling pressure, hydraulic conductivity, strain-controlled shear, and stress-controlled shear tests were conducted on MX80 and KV1 bentonite-sand mixtures. The experimental results indicate that MX80-sand 70/30 mixtures are prioritized as the buffer materials with 2.10 MPa swelling pressure and 1 × 10^-13 m/s hydraulic conductivity. However, the shear strength of mixtures was reduced by almost 50 % when fully saturated. Furthermore, this study proposed a novel stress-controlled direct shear apparatus to retrieve the creep model parameters. The numerical method based on the creep model efficiently supports and simulates the saturation process and creep displacement. The finite element method (FEM) result predicts that the buffer of both bentonite-sand mixtures will achieve an average degree of saturation of 95 % at the end of three decades and full saturation in 100 years. The simulated creep displacement results at key nodes suggest that both top and bottom parts in the buffer, assembled from MX80-sand 70/30 mixtures or KV1-sand 70/30 mixtures, will have almost equivalent values of 4 mm in the horizontal and 2 mm in the vertical directions eventually.

An ATM switch must deal with various kinds of input sources having different traffic characteristics and it must guarantee very small value of cel loss probability, about 10$^{8}$ -10$^{12}$ , to deal with loss-sensitive traffics. In order to estimate such a rate event probability with simulation procedure, a variance reduction technique is essential for obtaining an appropriate level of precision with reduced cost. In this paper, we propose a hybrid simulation technique to achieve reduction of variance of cell loss probability estimator, where hybrid means the combination of analytical method and simulation procedure. A discrete time queueing model with multiple input sources and a finite shared buffer is considered, where the arrival process at an input source and a finite shared buffer is considered, where the arrival process at an input source is governed by an Interrupted Bernoulli Process and the service rate is constant. We deal with heterogeneous input sources as well as homogeneous case. The performance of the proposed hybrid simulation estimator is compared with those of the raw simulation estimator and the importance sampling estimator in terms of variance reduction ratios.

A Simple Large Model (SLM), which can be used to make thermal calculation for a deep geological repository with finite number of HLW canisters, was developed. In order to develop the SLM, a Simple Basic Model (SBM), which will be a unit of the SLM, was optimized first. The SBM was optimized to achieve the same maximum buffer temperature as that of the Detailed Basic Model (DBM) representing the real geometric aspects of the repository. In contrast to the models with the assumption of infinite number of canisters which cannot consider boundary effect, the SLM can model the real repository with finite number of canisters and thus consider the boundary effect. Thermal results from the SLM can be used to evaluate the reliability of the models, which do not consider boundary effect. This model can also be used to simulate the thermal layout design and to analyze the thermal safety of a deep geological repository as well as an underground laboratory.

In this paper, flowfield and acoustic-field around moving bodies are simulated by the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation in the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method. Some effects are checked by comparing flaw about a square cylinder in ALE formulation and that in the fixed coordinates, and both agree very well. Matching procedure between the moving grid and fixed grid is also considered. The applied method in which the both grids are connected through buffer region is shown to be superior to moving overlapped grid. Dipole-like emissions of sound wave from harmonically vibrating bodies in two- and three-dimensional cases are simulated.
