The call-attempt behavior in a telecommunications service is influenced by the launch of new services and the choice of subscribers. On Feb 28, 2005, there was a disastrous shut-down of major local electronic switching systems (ESS) due to an abrupt increase of call-attempts. This incident turned out to be a strong proof that appropriate forecasting attempts are necessary not only for the capacity planning of network but also for the quality control of ESS. In this paper, forecasting models are first developed to estimate the daily ESS call-attempts and user retrial rates and then meaningful interpretations of results will follow. Finally future research topics will be presented.

City gas is becoming an essential resource in households due to its convenience and low price in comparison to other energy sources. However, in order to prepare for the gas market to be saturated, many city gas companies must pursue customer satisfaction management and develop happy call systems for a promising solution. In the development of the happy call systems, the difficult problem is that we cannot contact all customers because of limited resources and calling efficiency in the call center, We should find best customers according to their value. This paper suggests a methodology for the selection of happy call customers when city 9as companies consider two strategies. First, they should launch a new business area. Second, they must attempt to prevent current customers from moving from city gas to other fuels. We will discover important attributes and derive rules of weighting for the attributes through an exploration study that affect customer satisfaction and preference. Through a simulation model, we will show how many customers will be selected by our methodology.

Internet Service Providers (ISPs) constantly endeavor to resolve network congestion, in order to provide fast and cheap services to the customers. This study suggests two models based on Markov chain, using three and four access attempts to complete the call. It involves a comparative study of four models to check the relationship between Internet Access sharing traffic, and the possibility of network jamming. The first model is a Markov chain, based on call-by-call attempt, whereas the second is based on two attempts. Models III&IV suggested by the authors are based on the assumption of three and four attempts. The assessment reveals that sometimes by increasing the number of attempts for the same operator, the chances for the customers to complete the call, is also increased due to blocking probabilities. Three and four attempts express the actual relationship between traffic sharing and blocking probability based on Markov using MATLAB tools with initial probability values. The study reflects shouting results compared to I&II models using one and two attempts. The success ratio of the first model is 84.5%, and that of the second is 90.6% to complete the call, whereas models using three and four attempts have 94.95% and 95.12% respectively to complete the call.

The demand of large capacity in coming cellular systems makes inevitable the deployment of small cells, rendering more frequent handoff occurrences of calls than in the conventional system. The key issue is then how effectively to reduce the chance of unsuccessful handoffs, since the handoff failure is less desirable than that of a new call attempt. In this study, we consider the control policies which give priority to handoff calls by limiting channel assignment for the originating new calls, and allow queueing the new calls which are rejected at their first attempts. On this system. we propose the problem of finding an optimal call control strategy which optimizes the objective function value, while satisfying the requirements on the handoff/new call blocking probabilities and the new call delay. The objective function takes the most general form to include such well-known performance measures as the weighted average carried traffic and the handoff call blocking probability. The problem is formulated into two different linear programming (LP) models. One is based on the direct employment of steady state equations, and the other uses the theory of semi-Markov decision process. Two LP formulations are competitive each other, having its own strength in the numbers of variables and constraints. Extensive experiments are also conducted to show which call control strategy is optimal under various system environments having different objective functions and traffic patterns.

In traditional approaches to IN load control, there has been a focus on the protection of individual SCPs. On the other hand, the load control of network level can be achieved by using a mobile agent technology, which is a software element responsible for moving from one system to another and performing their task. In this thesis, we propose an mobile agent mechanism and two mobile agent migration procedures and analyze the performance of the Call Gapping mechanism and the mobile agent mechanism. The mobile agent mechanism showed that the SCP load control rate and attempt the number of attempted call failure were better than those of Call Gapping mechanism. Also, the amount of SS NO.7 traffics was reduced in the case of an overload condition.

The theory of option pricing has undergone rapid advances in recent years. Simultaneously, organized option markets have developed in the United States and Europe. The closed form solution for pricing options has only recently been developed, but its potential for application to problems in finance is tremendous. Almost all financial assets are really contingent claims. Especially, Black and Scholes(1973) suggest that the equity in a levered firm can be thought of as a call option. When shareholders issue bonds, it is equivalent to selling the assets of the firm to the bond holders in return for cash (the proceeds of the bond issues) and a call option. This paper takes the insight provided by Black and Scholes and shows how it may be applied to many of the traditional issues in corporate finance such as dividend policy, acquisitions and divestitures and capital structure. In this paper a combined capital asset pricing model (CAPM) and option pricing model (OPM) is considered and then applied to the derivation of equity value and its systematic risk. Essentially, this paper is an attempt to gain a clearer focus theoretically on the question of corporate stock risk and how the OPM adds to its understanding.

This paper briefly explains the configuration of CDMA Mobile System (CMS) test bed. The measured fading and delay results of CDMA signal in Taejon area are shown. In comparison to other cellular systems, there are more parameters in the CDMA systems that affect system performance and capacity. We performed the optimization test of the selected parameters and present the effect of each parameter on the performance. This paper presents the capacity and performance test results of CMS. The capacity test was performed on ETRI site of three sectors in Taejon area. The performance tests include call completion rate, busy hour call attempt, and the delay characteristics of voice.

The recent drastic increase of imported foreign restaurants provided the importance of service quality and the customer satisfaction is considered as the most important factors for the business activity. In order to identify the important factors for the customer satisfaction of the family restaurant in Korea, we attempt to test the validity of host call service as a significant variable in the family restaurant using Fishbein behaviour model. Based on literature review, the empirical study was conducted using the questionnaires for customers of the family restaurant in Seoul. Descriptive statistics, t-test, F-test and regression analysis were made of the gathered questionnaires using SPSS programs. The results shows that four hypotheses established in this study were significant. Therefore, host call service in the family restaurant should be introduced to increase the customer satisfaction. In conclusion, it proved that host call service in the family were the important factors that could satisfy the customers and the family restaurants will have to make a great effort to develop the differentiated service so as to enhance their competitiveness.
