The interest and importance of the convergence services for healthcare expand more and more as the average life expectancy increases. Convergence of ICT and healthcare technology unfold efficient and quick health services. Recently, healthcare services provide to clients with apps over web. On-demand wireless data broadcast supports any number of clients to access their desired data items dynamically by responding the needs for data items from the clients. In this paper, we propose an on-demand system to broadcast FHIR bundles for efficient healthcare services. We use time-parameterized replacing policy for renewing the bundle items on the wireless broadcast channel. The policy lets the on-demand broadcasting dynamic by controlling the time duration for the bundles to reside over the wireless channel. With simulation studies using an implemented testbed, we evaluate the performances of the proposed system in access time and tuning time. For evaluation, we compare the time-parameterized replacing policy of the proposed system with regular-number replacing policy. The proposed time-parameterized replacing policy shows shorter access time than the regular-number replacing policy because the policy responds more actively and dynamically to the change of the needs of the clients for FHIR bundles.

Maintaining a complex repairable system can be achieved by repairing, replacing, or any other activities. This paper proposes a joint optimization policy that is composed with ordering and replacing under minimal repair for the complex system. For this purpose, we derive the expected cost due to the minimal repair, ordering, downtime, inventory costs, and salvage value of units that follow generally distribution. Some properties about the optimum ordering policy that are suggested for our purpose shows that the optimum ordering policy minimizing the expected cost is either one of the two typical policies : (1) the original unit is replaced as soon as the ordered spare is delivered, or (2) the delivered spare is used as inventory part until the original unit fails.

Temperature difference energy is a good energy source replacing the fossil fuels. In the study, we classified the temperature difference energy as 4 types by the source & using method. For the understanding economic property of temperature difference energy, we tried simle economic analysis. As the result, Pay back period of 4 case of the temperature difference energy are from 1.23 to 12.65 years. Major factors influenced economic effect are operation time and energy user distance from the temperature difference energy source. If we can select optimal capacity and look for more effient energy users, Temperature difference energy play a important role of replacing fossil energy. So, for dess emination of temperature difference energy, we suggest that temperature difference energy must be included in renewable energy. Applying the effective methods among various promotion program of renewable energy policy, utilization of temperature difference energy could be activated.

This paper develops a periodic preventive maintenance(PM) policy following the expiration of warranty. Two types of warranty are considered: renewing warranty and non-renewing warranty. Also, we consider the situation where each PM cost is an increasing function of the PM effect. We determine the optimal number of PM's before replacing the system by a new one and the optimal length of period for the periodic PM following the expiration of warranty. Explicit solutions to determine the optimal periodic PM are presented for the Weibull distribution case.

General replacement policy includes document-based LRU or LFU technique and other various replacement policies are used to replace the documents within cache effectively. But, these replacement policies function only with regard to the time and frequency of document request, not considering the popularity of each web site. In this paper, we present the document replacement policies with regard to the popularity of each web site, which are suitable for modern network environments to enhance the hit-ratio and efficiently manage the contents of cache by effectively replacing documents on intermittent requests by new ones.

The night time electric cost is cheaper due to electric supply and demand policy in Korea from 1985. Currently about 900,000 customers are using night time electric heating boilers and this causes shift of peak demand time to night in winter and increase of deficit spending. To solve this problem, replacing night time electric heating boiler by air-source heat pump using night time electricity has been proposed. An air-source heat pump can provide efficient heating equipment especially in a warm climate. For estimating the night time electric heat pump COP(Coefficient of Performance), Korean Standard KS C 9306:2010 and European Standard EN-14511:2004 is available. SCOP(Seasonal COP) using European weather bin data is also calculated. SCOP is not available yet but European Committee for Standardization will establish a standard in the near future. The evaluation result show that the replacing night time electric heating boiler by heat pump can be possible.

In 2012, Korea introduced a Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) scheme, replacing the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme as a market support policy of renewable energy in the electricity market. RPS is to allocate obligatory quota of renewable energy sources for electricity suppliers, whereas FIT is to guarantee high prices for electricity from renewable energy sources. This study examines the effect of this policy change on solar photovoltaic market. According to the study, solar PV market grew fast under FIT as well as under RPS. However, under RPS the size of subsidy for solar PV suppliers was shrunk substantially. In addition, market risk increased severly under RPS due to the volatility of price of renewable energy certificate (REC) as well as of the electricity market price. The small and medium suppliers of solar PV were suffered the most severly from these policy effects. Therefore, the policy reform of RPS is needed to alleviate the market risk of small and medium suppliers of solar PV.

The outstanding performance of some nations in Central and Northern Europe such as Denmark and the Netherlands in the labor market is much indebted to their policy to help labor flexicurity. In this study, the possibility of replicating the Dutch or Danish performance in the labor market is explored in case of adopting such policy in the 22 OECD countries. If implementing the flexicurity policy in the 22 member countries of the OECD leads to strong performance in the labor market, this policy can be globally shared as universal labor policy to provide a win-win situation among the labor, management and the authorities on the matter, paving the way for replacing the Anglo-Saxon policy characterized by high flexibility and low security, or the European alternative with a lower level of flexibility and a higher level of security. According to findings from our research, flexicurity policy can not produce any tangible accomplishments in the labor market by only itself. Therefore, we may safely reach the conclusion that flexicurity policy has a limited positive influence on the labor market of some northern or central European countries. Given the striking difference in inherent conditions between such European countries and OECD countries, it is not sensible for OECD nations to adopt labor policy in the direction of flexicurity.

The building needs of the community are met by the interrelated construction activities of maintaining, modernizing and replacing the existing stock of building and by the erection of additional new building. Studying the service lift of buildings and how it is determined can serve as an important measuring stick in making decisions on construction policy. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide useful information for future construction through a comparative and analytical study of building structures on disappeared buildings. It was found that most building structure had a shorter service life than the standard set by The Korea Appraisal Board. This situation may have occurred due to the sharp rise in replacement of older buildings with new buildings for the purpose of monetary profit. To increase the economic life of buildings reduce losses of the nation's capital henceforth, examination on policy md steady study needs to be done.

In the soft drink industry, especially small and medium enterprises in Japan, there is a possibility of conversion from a labor-intensive industry to a capital-intensive. The demand for soft drinks may not be satisfied in the summer because the supply is too low to meet the demand. To address this situation, this paper proposes optimal investment that integrates demand uncertainty, based on real options approach (ROA) and seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average. Two alternative options are compared and evaluated. One is the Bermudan option: to employ additional workers to elevate efficiency in summer and laying off in winter, this attitude is repeated each year. The other is the American option: to replace equipment to increase machine ability throughout the year. Results in ROA show that the highest improvement is gained if the two options are in a symbiotic relationship. Soft drink producers should search for replacing equipment, using the employees repeatedly. A temporary decision is not equal to an infinite decision.
