Electric utility companies have the responsibility of providing good electricity for their customers. They have introduced the DAS(Distribution Automation System) to automate the power distribution networks. DAS engineers require state-of-the-art applications, such as a way to actively manage the distribution system and gain economic benefits from a flexible DAS architectural design. The existing DAS is not capable of handling these needs. It requires operator intervention whenever feeder overloading is detected while operator error could cause the feeder overload area to be extended. It also utilizes a closed architecture and it is therefore difficult to meet the system migration and future enhancement requirements. This paper represents a web based, platform-independent, flexible DAS architectural design and active database application. Recent advanced Internet technologies are fully utilized in this new DAS architecture allowing it to meet the system migration and future enhancement requirements. By using an active database, the DAS can minimize the feeder overloading area in the distribution system without operator intervention, thereby minimizing mistakes due to operator error.

In this paper, we propose a neural network for learning to control semi-linear dynamical systems. The network is a composite system of four three-layer backpropagation subnetworks, and is able to control inverted pendulums better than systems based on modern control theory at least in some ranges of parameters. Three of the four subnetworks in our network system process angles, velocities, and positions of a moving inverted pendulum, respectively. The outputs from those three subnetworks are input to the remaining subnetwork that makes control decisions. Each of the four subnetworks learns connection weights independently by backpropagation algorithms. Teaching signals are given by the human operator. Also, input signals are generated by the human operator, but they are converted by preprocessors to actual input data for the three subnetworks except for the network for control decisions. The whole system is implemented on both of 16 bit personal computers and 32 bit workstations. First, we briefly provide the research background and the inverted pendulum problem itself, followed by the description of our composite neural network model. Next, some results from the simulation are given, which are subsequently compared with the results from a control system based on modern control theory. Then, some discussions and conclusion follow.

A network design problem (NDP) is to find a design parameter to optimize the performance of transportation system. This paper presents a modified NDP, called target-oriented NDP, which contains a target that we try to arrive in real world, and also proposes a solution algorithm. Unlike general NDP which seeks an optimal value to minimize or to maximize objective function of the system, in target-oriented NDP traffic manager or operator can set a target level prior and then try to find an optimal design variable to attain this goal. A simple example for mode choice problem is given to test the model.

In this study, a simulation model is developed to analyze the effects of routing and scale-economy of transmission facilities on the traffic network topology and investment cost changes in a metropolitan telephone network. Computational experiments showed that the wide deployment of bifurcated routing in a dual-homing configuration reduces significantly the traffic network connectivity and the investment cost. Its enhanced version, when combined with the subscriber network cost model, can be used as a prototype cost proxy model for figuring out the access charges in a multi-operator environment.

In general, the fusion of neural network and fuzzy logic theory is based on the fact that neural network and fuzzy logic theory have the common properties that 1) the activation function of a neuron is similar to the membership function of fuzzy variable, and 2) the functions of summation and products of neural network are similar to the Max-Min operator of fuzzy logics. In this paper, a fuzzy-neural network will be proposed and a force controller of the robot gripper, utilizing the fuzzy-neural network, will be presented. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy will be demonstrated by computer simulation.

Many countries in the world introduced MVNO regulations to improve the competitiveness in mobile networks. Fixed operator in U.K. like British Telecom (BT) started MVNO business with Mobile Network Operator (O2) on October 1, 2002. For Korean fixed operator such as Dacom, Hanaro Telecom, Korea Telecom (KT), and Onse Telecom are focusing on MVNO market. Thus, this paper suggests possible regulation plans for mobile communication industry in Korea to enter the mobile market successfully.

This paper analyzes cost tradeoffs between memory usage and computation for window-based operators in data stream environments. It identifies generic operator network constructs, and sets up a cost model for the estimation of the expected memory reduction and the computation overheads when window memory relocations are applied to each operator network construct. This cost model helps to identify the utility of window memory relocations. It also helps to apply window memory relocation to improve a query execution plan to save memory usage. The proposed approach contributes to expand the scope of query processing and optimization in data stream environments. It also provides a basis to develop a cost estimation model for the query optimization using window memory relocations.

The environment of the access network service market is characterized by uncertain demand and various competing alternative technologies. In Korea, despite the introduction of competition, dominant Public Network Operator(PNO) still leads the market. Therefore, the decision of PNO has a great impact on the access network evolution. In this paper, we propose an model which aims to reduce risks and both investment and operating costs, to cope with the uncertain demand and technology evolution. We expect this model to provide a tool analyze risks and evaluate various strategies on the network evolution.

In this work, we present a method to deal with the interval valued decision making systems. First, we propose a new type of equality measure based on the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator. The proposed equality measure has a structure to render the extreme values of the measure by choosing a suitable weighting vector of the OWA operator. From this property, we derive a bidirectional fuzzy inference network which can be applied for the decisionmaking systems requiring the inverval valued decisions.

The introduction of a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) system is expected to increase consumer benefits, boost competition in the mobile market, utilize idle bandwidth, and expedite mobile-fixed line convergence and growth in the mobile Internet market. This research endeavors to study the optimal access charge for an MVNO system, which is expected to be introduced to the Korean mobile communications market. We found that the optimal access charge is higher in the interdependent model than in the independent model if demand for mobile phone service is based on a substitution relationship. We also found that the optimal access charge is higher than the marginal cost.
