  • The design of best efficient production process is common requirements of the production strategy department and the process planning department to maximize the revenue and accomplish target production volumes in the production periods. And they use several general methods for that-line-balancing, removing of the bottle-neck process, facility ramp-up, increasing of the worker's utilization, etc. But, those methods have depended on analytic, static and arithmetic calculations, yet. So, irregular work-waiting time causing the delay time isn't include in extracting production capacity, especially in the line production process. The work-waiting time is changed irregularly along the variation of each machine and very important for calculate real product lead-time and forecasting target production volumes. At this thesis, i'm going to mention the importance of the delay time of conveyor system which can be extracted by discrete-event simulation. And suggest it as a new main variable that must be considered at designing new production system. Then experimented and tested that's effects in the H-company case, conveyor based line production process.

  • This paper addressed the issue of a generalized cost model for transit assignment. The model composed of walk time, waiting time (including transfer waiting time), line-haul time, transfer walk time, and fare. The weights of each component were supposed to be calculated using the stated preference (SP) data, which were collected prudently in order to reflect reality. The marginal rate of substitution and wage rate were applied to calculate the weights. The results showed that the weight of walking time per in-vehicle travel time (IVTT) was 1.507, the weight of waiting time (per IVTT) was 1.749, that of transfer time (per IVTT) was 1.474, and that of fare (per IVTT) was 1.476 for trips between inner-city areas in Seoul. Weights for each component were identified as 1.871, 1.967, 1.015, and 0.857, respectively, for trips between Seoul and Gyeonggi. Statistical significance existed between two cases and each variable was also statistically significant. Transit assignment using the relative weights estimated in this study was implemented to analyze the travel index in a macroscopic and quantitative basis. The results showed that average total travel times were 30.23 minutes and 63.29 minutes and average generalized costs were 2,510 won and 3,880 won for trips between inner-city areas in Seoul and between Seoul and Gyeonggi, respectively.

  • For better performance and to avoid member service annoyance that results due to joining-clients' waiting durations and time-outs when there are more than one client wanting to join concurrently for Personal Broadcasting System service, there is a need for improving concurrent member joining mechanism. For a more efficient and better performing, this paper apply Overlay Multicast based mini-Overlay Broadcasting Control Protocol(mOBCP) Algorithm on Personal Broadcasting System. mOBCP proposed is performance-effective mechanism, since it considers the case of how fast will children, concurrently, find and join new parents when paths to existing parents are in Failure. The performance comparison, in terms of tree construction time variation and Latency are done through simulations and the results conclude in favour of the Proposed mOBCP.

  • The scale and operating conditions of logistical systems very sensitively varies according to the variation of traffic intensity that is affected by the arrival characteristics of trucks and the attributes of loading/unloading services in logistics facilities. More exactly, logistics costs are incurred according to variations of traffic intensity. which are intimately linked with in a given time period. Also. although traffic intensity changes minutely, the range of cost variation is wide. Nevertheless, with regard to operating logistics systems, the existing studies make no attempt to analyze these factors. Therefore, it was the purpose of this study to determine the optimal traffic intensity to minimize excessive logistics costs resulting from the generation of unnecessary costs such as waiting costs and overcosts in operating a facility. For the purposes of this analysis. a determination model of optimal traffic intensity was constructed according to queuing theory. The inflow/outflow conditions of trucks and the terminal operational conditions were collected from an off-dock container terminal in Busan. On the basis of this data. the optimal traffic intensity that could off-set excessive waiting and operating costs was determined quantitatively. Also. using the optimal traffic intensity to be determined. we consider the improvements of operating system in the logistics facilities.

  • The aim of study is to analyze the berth occupancy rate according to the ship size. P Iron and steel company operate exclusive bulk terminal at P port and G port and the depth of water at berth are not so equal each other. And to reduce the sea transport cost between loading port and unloading port P and G, P company increases the number of large ship while ship scheduling. But it causes to increase the berth congestion at the specific water depth berth owing to the draught of large ship. At this point, usually ship waiting time starts to rise even at low levels of berth occupancy rate, and will rise more and more sharply at the level of full utilization. But it is not common at exclusive terminal like P port and G port. Bulk ships arrive at port according to the early planned arrival time and the coefficient of variation of ship arrival time is not so big. So queueing time at exclusive terminal does not rise sharply near 80-90 berth occupancy rate.

  • In wireless sensor networks, a sensor node with in-network aggregation adjusts the timeout which is a waiting time to receive messages from child nodes. This paper proposes a novel timeout scheduling scheme for data aggregation in wireless sensor networks, which adaptively configures its timeout according to changing data patterns in order to improve energy efficiency and data accuracy during data aggregation. The proposed scheme decreases the timeout when the temporal difference of collected data(data variation) from children is lower than a pre-defined threshold because there is no occurrence of critical events. Conversely, it increases the timeout when the data variation is higher than the pre-defined threshold in order to fulfill more accurate data aggregation. Extensive simulation reveals that the proposed scheme outperforms the cascading-based scheme in terms of energy consumption and data accuracy.
