  • In this paper, we develop detailed algorithms for implementing the so-called Limited Column Generation procedure for Local Access Telecommunication Network(LATN) design problem. We formulate the problem into a tree-partitioning problem with an exponential number of variables. Its linear programming relaxation has all integral vertices, and can be solved by the Limited Column Generation procedure in just n pivots, where n is the number of nodes in the network. Prior to each pivot. an entering variable is selected by detecting the Locally Most Violated(LMV) reduced cost, which can be obtained by solving a subproblem in pseudo-polynomial time. A critical step in the Limited Column Generation is to find all the LMV reduced costs. As dual variables are updated at each pivot, the reduced costs have to be computed in an on-line fashion. An efficient implementation is developed to execute such a task so that the LATN design problem can be solved in O(n$^2$H), where H is the maximum concentrator capacity. Our computational experiments indicate that our algorithm delivers an outstanding performance. For instance, the LATN design problem with n=150 and H=1000 can be solved in approximately 67 seconds on a SUN SPARC 1000 workstation.

  • Escherichia coli excretes acetate during aerobic growth on glycolytic carbon sources, which has been explained as an overflow metabolism when the carbon flux into the cell exceeds the capacity of central metabolic pathways. Nonacetogenic growth of E. coli on gluconeogenic carbon sources like succinate or in carbon-limited slow growth conditions is believed an evidence for the explanation. However, we found that a strain defected in the acs (acetyl Co-A synthetase) gene, the product of which is involved in scavenging acetate, accumulated acetate even in succinate medium and in carbon-limited low growth rate condition, where as its isogenic parental strain did not. The acs promoter was inducible in noncatabolite repression condition, whereas the expression of the ackA-pta operon encoding acetate kinase and phosphotransacetylase for acetate synthesis was constitutive. Results in this study suggest that E. coli excretes and scavenges acetate simultaneously in the carbon-limited low growth condition and in nonacetogenic carbon source, and the activity of the acetate consumption pathway directly affects the accumulation level of acetate in the culture broth.

  • In labor-intensive enterprise, such as garment factory, assembly line is widely used as a manufacturing process for reducing costs and production time. However, for the sake of the various working capacity of worker, idle or delay may happen and influence the rear processes. If these unforeseeable delay happened continuously, it may influence the whole manufacturing process and a model, which is called limited-cycle model with multiple periods (LCMwMP), is assumed to evaluate the influence risk. In order to minimize the risk, the assignment of the workers is focused on. In this paper, we deal with an assembly line as LCMwMP model when two kinds of workers exist, whose efficiency is assumed to two different groups. We consider an optimization problem for finding an assignment of workers to the line that minimizes total expected risk, which is exchanged to expected cost by reset model of LCMwMP. First, reset model as a simple model of LCMwMP is introduced. Then, some hypotheses of the rules of the optimal worker assignment are proposed and some numerical experiments are researched assuming the processing time as Erlang distribution. Finally, the other rules on other certain conditions are discussed.

  • This work presents a complete optimal model for trapezoidal combined footings that support a concentric load and moments around of the "X" and "Y" axes in each column to obtain the minimum area and the minimum cost. The model presented in this article considers a pressure diagram that has a linear variation (real pressure) and the equations are not limited to some cases. The classic model takes into account a concentric load and the moment around of the "X" axis (transverse axis) that is applied due to each column, i.e., the resultant force is located at the geometric center of the footing on the "Y" axis (longitudinal axis), and when the concentric load and moments around of the "X" and "Y" axes act on the footing is considered the uniform pressure applied on the contact surface of the footing, and it is the maximum pressure. Four numerical problems are presented to find the optimal design of a trapezoidal combined footing under a concentric load and moments around of the "X" and "Y" axes due to the columns: Case 1 not limited in the direction of the Y axis; Case 2 limited in the direction of the Y axis in column 1; Case 3 limited in the direction of the Y axis in column 2; Case 4 limited in the direction of the Y axis in columns 1 an 2. The complete optimal design in terms of cost optimization for the trapezoidal combined footings can be used for the rectangular combined footings considering the uniform width of the footing in the transversal direction, and also for different reinforced concrete design codes, simply by modifying the resisting capacity equations for moment, for bending shear, and for the punching shear, according to each of the codes.

  • This study presented the reinforcing effect of sands by using newly devised 3D Tirecell. Plate loading tests for sand were conducted for different relative density and number of reinforced layers. From the tests, the ultimate bearing capacity of reinforced sand increased with increasing relative densities. The effect of reinforced layers with 0.4B interval is limited to 2 layers and further reinforcing effects can not be obtained beyond 3 layers. Especially the bearing capacity increased remarkably at 1 layer of Tirecell reinforcement and the degree of increase was small for 1 layer to 2 layers increase of reinforcement. Test results show that the reinforcing effect of Tirecell is prominent compared with commercial geocell in the literature.

  • Steganography is hiding messages in cover materials like image, audio, etc. The previous studies are limited in the shifting problem of the histogram and capacity. This paper proposes a new technology which overcomes these two problems. Our new technology uses two colors as a pair and chooses either changing to its partner or remaining as they are according as each hiding bit. As a result, we show that the result of this technology shows that the hiding capacity is higher than other methods.

  • In country, for 2002 World-cup the peak is to construct soccer playground. the stabilizing method by additives is mainly applied of permanent improvement for bearing capacity of structure foundation and for strength, durability and transformation of road pavement layer except for construction machine's trafficability and bearing capacity. This study is on soft ground improvement of $\bigcirc$$\bigcirc$ world-cup stadium field. construction field constitutes of very various layers and after construction the lawn grass should be planted on the surface of the earth and in addition, chemical effects should be limited from improved ground layer. Mixing soft clay in field with three domestic representative additives, it evaluated the unconfined compression strength. In the results, after curing during 28 days the objective strength has been obtained on about 5% combination ratio.

  • Mobile agent technologies are getting popular as means for accessing network resources efficiently. In order for mobile agents to be accepted as a reliable technology for applications such as e-commerce, a proper framework for mobile database should be established. In this paper, we first discuss weak points of current mobile computing systems that mostly result from the limitations of current mobile computing technology including frequent disconnection, limited battery capacity, low-bandwidth communication and reduced storage capacity. These weak points also have become the cause of transaction problem where mobile devices issue transactions. In order to eliminate this transaction problem in the mobile environment, we propose a mobile database framework, Proxyne, which is based on the proxy and SyncML.
