Data broadcast is an effective data transmission method from a data base server to numerous mobile clients due to the restrictions on mobile environment such as low wireless communication bandwidth and energy shortage of mobile devices. There are various broadcast methods based on clients' data access frequencies or semantic relationship of data. The broadcast schedule based only on the access frequencies does not consider semantic relations of data, so that when a client needs to access a series of semantically related data, the client has to listen to the wireless channel for a long time. On the other hand, the broadcast schedule based only on semantic relationship of data makes data access time longer when clients highly request specific data which are not semantically related but frequently accessed. In this paper, we present an efficient data broadcast method based on not only data access frequencies but also semantic relationship to improve mobile clients' query response time. The new hybrid broadcast method we propose creates a data broadcast schedule according to the data access frequencies and then the schedule is adjusted to reflect semantic relationship of data. We show our method is efficient by experimental performance analysis.

이동 분산 환경에서는 무선 데이타 전송 기법을 통하여 사용자들에게 다양한 정보들을 전달하게 된다. 본 논문은 균등 무선 데이타 방송 환경에서, 빠른 시간에 방송데이타를 접근할 수 있는 방법에 대하여 기술한다. 이를 위하여 무선 방송 데이타의 스케쥴링 문제를 정의하고, 어떤 질의가 접근하는 데이타들의 응집 정도를 나타내는 `질의 거리(Query Distance: QD)'라는 측정 기준을 제시한다. 제안한 질의 거리를 사용하여 각 질의의 우선 순위에 따라 해당 질의가 접근하는 데이타 집합을 방송 스케쥴에 추가하면서 스케쥴을 구성하는 데이타 스케쥴링 기법을 제시한다. 데이타 집합의 스케쥴 구성 과정에서 우선 순위가 높은 질의의 질의 거리를 최소화하면서 낮은 우선 순위 질의들의 질의 거리를 줄이는 스케쥴 확장 규칙들을 사용한다. 예를 이용하여 제안하는 방법에 대하여 설명한 후, 실험을 통해 제안한 방법의 성능을 평가한다.Abstract In mobile distributed systems the data on the air can be accessed by a lot of clients. This paper describes the way clients access the broadcast data in short latency in uniform wireless broadcasting environment. We define the problem of wireless data scheduling and propose a measure, named Query Distance(QD), which represents the coherence degree of data set accessed by a query. By using the measure, we give a data scheduling method that constructs the broadcast schedule by appending each query's data set in greedy way. When constructing the schedule, we use schedule expansion rules that reduce the QD's of lower-frequency queries while minimizing the QD's of the higher-frequency ones. With the use of examples we illustrate the mechanism of the proposed method and we test the performance of our method.

We have developed a scheduling system for heavy ion radiotherapy considering the condition of three treatment rooms and treatment planning for each patient. This system consists of a database (patient information, treatment method and machine schedule), a schedule for radiotherapy and WEB server. All operation of this system, such as data input, to change and to view the schedule, are performed by using a WEB browser. In order to protect personal information for the patients, access privilege to each information are limited by according to the occupational category. This system is connected with a hospital central information management system (AMIDAS) and an irradiation-managing computer for the heavy ion radiotherapy. A basic information for the patient is got from AMIDAS and the daily schedule sends to the treatment control computer at each treatment room through the irradiation-managing computer every morning. The daily, weekly, monthly schedules in the treatment room and the treatment condition of each patient are shared on the WEB browser with the all participants of the heavy ion therapy. This system could be useful to save a time to generate a treatment schedule and to inform us the most up-to-date treatment schedule and the related information at the same time.

Most of the railway traffic control systems are using in the DBMS(Database Management System)is a disk-based DBMS. When the train schedule and the event data is inputted and referred at real time on Disk-based DBMS, it is characteristic of the slow access time and the data is preserved permanently. For this reason, this paper suggests the way of improving for Railway Traffic Control System by the hybrid DBMS using a combination of memory and disk. We apply the Hybrid DBMS to Railway Traffic Control System and compare the existing method with suggested one using the same data. As a result of comparison, we have come to the conclusion that suggested method is far more performance to shorten data access time and process a mass information than the previous methods.

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.

Power saving is one of the most important features that extends the lifetime of portable devices in mobile wireless networks. The IEEE 802.16e mobile broadband wireless access system adopts a power saving mechanism with a binary truncated exponent algorithm for determining sleep intervals. When using this standard power saving scheme, there is often a delay before data packets are received at the mobile subscriber station (MSS). In order to extend the lifetime of a MSS, the battery energy must be used efficiently. This paper presents a dynamically alternating sleep interval scheduling algorithm as a solution to deal with the power consumption problem. We take into account different traffic classes and schedule a proper sequence of power saving classes. The window size of the sleep interval is calculated dynamically according to the packet arrival rate. We make a tradeoff between the power consumption and packet delay. The method achieves the goal of efficiently reducing the listening window size, which leads to increased power saving. The performance of our proposed scheme is compared to that of the standard power saving scheme. Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of our power saving scheme and its ability to strike the appropriate performance balance between power saving and packet delay for a MSS in an IEEE 802.16e mobile broadband wireless access system.

To provide fairness among different ONUs in EPON, the upstream channel remains idle for some time after OLT receives the buffer status from all ONUs every cycle, which decreases the utilization and increases the delay. To solve this deficiency, we present a new grant scheduling method. The method consists of dividing ONUs into several sets where OLT can schedule ONUs in one set while others will be transmitting their traffic. This method will better utilize the bandwidth of EPON. The numerical results show that the larger the number of ONU sets is the smaller the minimum overhead becomes.

Saving energy is a big challenge for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which becomes even more critical in large-scale WSNs. Most energy waste is communication related, such as collision, overhearing and idle listening, so the schedule-based access which can avoid these wastes is preferred for WSNs. On the other hand, clustering technique is considered as the most promising solution for topology management in WSNs. Hence, providing interference-free clustering is vital for WSNs, especially for large-scale WSNs. However, schedule management in cluster-based networks is never a trivial work, since it requires inter-cluster cooperation. In this paper, we propose a clustering method, called Interference-Free Clustering Protocol (IFCP), to partition a WSN into interference-free clusters, making timeslot management much easier to achieve. Moreover, we model the clustering problem as a multi-objective optimization issue and use non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II to solve it. Our proposal is finally compared with two adaptive clustering methods, HEED-CSMA and HEED-BMA, demonstrating that it achieves the good performance in terms of delay, packet delivery ratio, and energy consumption.

Delayed access to surgery may lead to deterioration in the patient condition, poor clinical outcomes, increase in the probability of emergency admission, or even death. The purpose of this work is to decide the number of patients selected from a waiting list and to schedule them in accordance with the operating room capacity in the next period. We formulate the problem as an infinite horizon Markov Decision Process (MDP), which attempts to strike a balance between the patient waiting times and overtime works. Structural properties of the proposed model are investigated to facilitate the solution procedure. The proposed procedure modifies the conventional value iteration method along with the binary search technique. An example of the optimal policy is provided, and computational results are given to show that the proposed procedure improves computational efficiency.
