  • According to the current basic law of disaster and safety management, Standard Incident Command System is limited to Emergency Rescue Function, and Incident Commanders are only Fire Fighting Agencies. The main purpose of this study is to provide some suggestions to improve general-purpose of Standard ICS for various incidents. Also, there are some suggestions for Emergency Operation Centers as a coordinator and supporter of mobilizing response resources in all large scale disaster.

  • Deployment of green transportation in reverse logistics is a key issue for low carbon technologies. To cope with such logistic innovation, this paper proposes a hybrid approach to solve practical vehicle routing problem (VRP) of pickup type that is common when considering the reverse logistics. Noticing that transportation cost depends not only on distance traveled but also on weight loaded, we propose a hierarchical procedure that can design an economically efficient reverse logistics network even when the scale of the problem becomes very large. Since environmental concerns are of growing importance in the reverse logistics field, we need to reveal some prospects that can reduce $CO_2$ emissions from the economically optimized VRP in the same framework. In order to cope with manifold circumstances, the above idea has been deployed by extending the Weber model to the generalized Weber model and to the case with an intermediate destination. Numerical experiments are carried out to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach and to explore the prospects for future green reverse logistics.

  • The superconducting electromagnetic propulsion system has been proposed as one of new alternative propulsion systems. Especially, the helical-type propulsion system has the greatest merit that is able to use the solenoid-type superconducting magnets with high magnetic fields. In this study, calculations of characteristics of the large scale helical-type thruster are carried out on the basis of our experimental results. As a couple of results of calculations, it is found that the thruster efficiency quickly increases with the length of electrode up to about 5 m and then goes up to about 0.9. The thruster efficiency peaks at a certain point ($^{\sim}0.6\;m$) and then falls as length of pitch increases.

  • We propose a novel deep neural network model for detecting human activities in untrimmed videos. The process of human activity detection in a video involves two steps: a step to extract features that are effective in recognizing human activities in a long untrimmed video, followed by a step to detect human activities from those extracted features. To extract the rich features from video segments that could express unique patterns for each activity, we employ two different convolutional neural network models, C3D and I-ResNet. For detecting human activities from the sequence of extracted feature vectors, we use BLSTM, a bi-directional recurrent neural network model. By conducting experiments with ActivityNet 200, a large-scale benchmark dataset, we show the high performance of the proposed DeepAct model.

  • Interactions between genes have long been recognized and studied by many researchers, and they formed a large-scale interaction networks. In systems biology, it has been a challenge to investigate the factors to determine network dynamics. Here, we create a new network called an effectiveness network by calculating thy dynamical effectiveness from a node to another node. We found that robust nodes tend to have smaller number of edges than non-robust nodes. This implies that hub nodes are likely to affect the network robustness.

  • Large-scale distributed applications based on Internet and client/server applications have to deal with series of problems such as load balancing, unpredictable communication delays, partial errors, and networking failures. Therefore, sophisticated applications such as teleconferencing, video-on-demand, and concurrent software engineering require an abstracted communication. In this paper, we present our design, implementation and performance analysis of group communication using the CORBA ORB, JAVA RMI, Socket based on distributed computing. We anticipate our study may apply to the various field of applications such as fault-tolerant client/server system, groupware, scalable text retrieval system, and financial information systems.

  • The rising popularity of renewable energy sources resulted in development of the units of higher rated powers, where the large-scale plants and grid-connected type solar power systems are increased. Therefore, the importance of grid stabilization, which depends on each country or system-type, has been strengthened by different grid-codes or certifications. In this paper, the control scheme of three-phase photovoltaic system is enhanced, where both injected active and reactive powers are simultaneously controlled with the consideration of the certification of the Germany Association of Energy and Water Industries (BDEW). Experimental results are shown to verify the theoretical analysis.

  • Solar Photovoltaics (SPV) In India has become an important renewable source of energy particularly for rural and remote areas. The vastness of the country and the requirements of electricity in far-flung villages makes SPV very attractive, with inherent technological advantages providing additional boost. This has been recognized very early by Govt. Of India and Ministry of Non-Conventional Sources of Energy (MNES) has been entrusted with promoting SPV usage in the country. Rural electrification through SPV systems is one of the programmes which is expected to provide fillip to PV industry in the country. PV Industry in India is very well established with capability of solar cell fabrication and module fabrication as well as Balance of System design and fabrication. There several R&D groups in the academic institutions who are involved in improving solar cells efficiency, thin film solar cells and PV instrumentation. Thus, India provides a ready market for large scale utilization of solar energy through SPV technology.

  • Recent global and cloud computing render the Internet and Web application to be a paramount field since it is uncomplicated to access and less time and space limitation. On the other hand, a growing number of computations using grid computing techniques indicates the requirements and quantities of large-scale computations are becoming foremost progressively. Therefore, that will be much practicable if there is a Web-based service that could provide Grid computing functions. In this paper, Several similar Web-based cloud and parallel computing systems will be discussed and a model of Web application termed GCaaS which supports grid computing services will be introduced.
