  • The most difficult and time-intensive issue in the successful implementation of genetic algorithms is to find good parameter setting, one of the most popular subjects of current research in genetic algorithms. In this study, we present a new efficient experimental design method for parameter optimization in a genetic algorithm for general job shop scheduling problem using the Taguchi method. Four genetic parameters including the population size, the crossover rate, the mutation rate, and the stopping condition are treated as design factors. For the performance characteristic, makespan is adopted. The number of jobs, the number of operations required to be processed in each job, and the number of machines are considered as noise factors in generating various job shop environments. A robust design experiment with inner and outer orthogonal arrays is conducted by computer simulation, and the optimal parameter setting is presented which consists of a combination of the level of each design factor. The validity of the optimal parameter setting is investigated by comparing its SN ratios with those obtained by an experiment with full factorial designs.

  • This paper presents a CATV SMS (Status Monitoring System) using HDLC (High Level Data Link Contorl) protocol and the system implementation.The system specifications were derived from the analysis of technical status and requirement of the domestic CATV industry. For the interoperability with a global network management system in the future, HDLC protocol was adopted in the system. The system performance was improved by using the communication controller chip and the large data buffer. For reducting the communication problems induced by accumulated noise in up-stream data channels, the system was designed that the different communication channel can be assigned to each proper mass of terminal. The operating software was designed with menu driven user interface and have various functions for the convenience of users. The test result of the implemented system at the experimental network showed good performance and suitability for a coaxial CATV Status Monitoring System.

  • With the substantial increase of the size of structure, management and monitoring of excavation for the foundation construction becomes more difficult. Therefore, massive collapses which are related to retaining wall recently increase. However, since the study on measuring and monitoring the pre-stressing force of anchor is insufficient, behavior of anchor may not be predicted and monitored appropriately by the existing strain gauge type monitoring system. FBG Sensor, which is smaller than strain gauge and has better durability and does not have a noise from electromagnetic waves, was adapted to develope a smart anchor. A series of pullout tests were performed to verify the feasibility of smart anchor and find out the load transfer mechanism around the steel wire fixed to rock with grout.

  • A cryptographic dongle, which is capable of transmitting encrypted voice signals over the CDMA/GSM voice channel, was designed and implemented. The dongle used PIC microcontroller for signals processing including analog to digital conversion and digital to analog conversion, encryption and communicating with the smart phone. A smart phone was used to provide power to the dongle as well as passing the encrypted speech to the smart phone which then transmits the signal to the network. A number of tests were conducted to check the efficiency of the dongle, the firmware programming, the encryption algorithms, and the secret key management system, the interface between the smart phone and the dongle and the noise level.

  • The K-means algorithm is widely used at the initial stage of data analysis in data mining process, partly because of its low time complexity and the simplicity of practical implementation. Cluster validity indices are used along with the algorithm in order to determine the number of clusters as well as the clustering results of datasets. In this paper, we present a performance comparison of sixteen indices, which are selected from forty indices in literature, while considering their applicability to nonhierarchical clustering algorithms. Data sets used in the experiment are generated based on multivariate normal distribution. In particular, four error types including standardization, outlier generation, error perturbation, and noise dimension addition are considered in the comparison. Through the experiment the effects of varying number of points, attributes, and clusters on the performance are analyzed. The result of the simulation experiment shows that Calinski and Harabasz index performs the best through the all datasets and that Davis and Bouldin index becomes a strong competitor as the number of points increases in dataset.

  • For constructionof the next generation satellite B-ISDN/ATM networks considering integration with terrestrial information infrastructure networks, various high speed and wideband satellites with be launched and they will make used of frequency reue techniques for efficient management of limited frequency resource. Therefore, CCI(Co-Channel Interference) inherent in frequency reuse will be a dominant factor in performance degradation of satellite networks. This paper alanyzes the ATM cell transmission performance degradation caused by CCI. The satellite link, including up-link and down-link thermal noise, CCI, and nonlinear satellite transponder, is modeled and interleaving technique is used for compensating the ATM cell transmission performance degradation caused by burst error of satellite link. First, each satellite link subsystem is analyzed in detail and then end-to-end ATM cell transmission performance is evaluated with BER and CLR. Specifically, ATMcell transmission performance degradation caused by CCI is evaluated in detail.

  • This paper is how to improve contaminated air by the pollutant from vehicles through ventilators and entrance at the underground station. We are looking for the environment management to take care of customers. There is two ventilation systems. One is natural ventilation system, the other is forced ventilation system. Usually, subway ventilators were installed low on the sidewalk. There are lots of craps on the ventilators, so these things interrupt influx of outside air. But the gas from the vehicles comes into the station through entrance. There is lots of noise while ventilations run. So we install the supply air vents away from the road for the customers. If it's difficult, we cover around the ventilator with clear plastic plates more than 2M heights. We also install silencer on the ventilators. We install the air curtains on the entrances to prevent dust from outside. Seoul Metropolitan has a plan to make 60M deep underground road. To improve underground road air quality, ventilators should be installed that consider the above information.
