The Hub-and-spoke strategy is widely used in the field of transportation. According to containerization and the development of transshipment technology, it is also introduced into European rail freight transportation. The objective of this article is to develop a service network design model for rail freight transportation based on the Hub-and-spoke strategy and efficient algorithms that can be applied to large-scale network. Although this model is for strategic decision, it includes not only general operational cost but also time-delay cost. The non-linearity of objective function due to time-delay factor is transformed into linearity by establishing train service variables by frequency. To solve large scale problem, this model used a heuristic method based on decomposition and three newly-developed algorithms. The new algorithms were examined with respect to four test problems base on the actual network of European rail freight and discussed the accuracy of solutions and the efficiency of proposed algorithms.

This paper investigates the performance characteristics of the data link layer of the 1996 version of IEC/ISA fieldbus which is developed as internatioal standard of fieldbus. A discrete-event simulation model of the data link layer of IEC/ISA fieldbus is developed. Using the simulation model, this paper identifies the network parameters that influence the performance of prioritys scheme and real-time data transmission, and analyzes the delay performance of IEC/ISA fieldbus with respect to the change of network parameters. The simulation model also integrates continuous-time simulation model of a control system as application process. Using the integrated simulation model, this study investigates the effect of network-induced delay on the performance of control system. Since the simulation model developed in this study can predict the network performance, it will be effectively utilized in the design phase of control and automation systems that adopt the IEC/ISA fieldbus.

X-MAC reduces transmission delay and energy consumption by using a short preamble instead of the existing long preamble. To solve the problem of X-MAC, this paper proposes a new MAC protocol called Express-MAC. The wireless sensor network is mainly used for the purpose of gathering event data or situation information. Especially, the transmission pattern of the sensor network with the purpose of event detection such as intrusion detection is very intermittent as well as successively occurring when a single event takes place in most cases. By reflecting sensor network's key transmission patterns as above, EX-MAC has used multi-hub path's path reservation system and awake section's transmission time reservation method in data transmission when the first event takes place. The awake time reservation in transmission path has improved successive data transmission's end-to-end delay, and it has also increased efficiency in terms of energy consumption by reducing the preamble length of data transmission and reception node.

This paper describes development of real-time condition monitoring system to observe state of a container crane in a port. To analyze the state of a crane, the strength and the direction of wind are measured with sensors along with the load resulted a crane at the moment. The measured signals are processed by especially developed conditioning board and converted into digital data. Measured data are analyzed to define the state of the crane at an indicator. For transmission of these data to the indicator, we implemented wireless sensor network based on IEEE 802.15.4 MAC(Media Access Control) protocol and Bluetooth network protocol. To extend the networking distance between the indicator and sensor nodes, the shortest path routing algorithm was applied for WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) networks. The indicator sends the state information of the crane to monitoring server through IEEE 802.11 b wireless LAN(Local Area Network). Monitoring server decides whether alarm should be issued or not. The performance of developed WSN and Bluetooth network were evaluated and analyzed in terms of communication delay and throughput.

Precise point positioning (PPP) requires precise orbit and clock products. International GNSS service (IGS) real-time service (RTS) data can be used in real-time for PPP, but it may not be possible to receive these corrections for a short time due to internet or hardware failure. In addition, the time required for IGS to combine RTS data from each analysis center results in a delay of about 30 seconds for the RTS data. Short-term orbit prediction can be possible because it includes the rate of correction, but the clock correction only provides bias. Thus, a short-term prediction model is needed to preidict RTS clock corrections. In this paper, we used a long short-term memory (LSTM) network to predict RTS clock correction for three minutes. The prediction accuracy of the LSTM was compared with that of the polynomial model. After applying the predicted clock corrections to the broadcast ephemeris, we performed PPP and analyzed the positioning accuracy. The LSTM network predicted the clock correction within 2 cm error, and the PPP accuracy is almost the same as received RTS data.

In wireless network environments, wireless channels are characterized by time-varying fading and interference conditions, which may lead to burst packet corruptions and delay variation. This can cause severe quality degradation of streaming media. To guarantee successful transmission of media over the hostile wireless networks, where channel conditions are highly fluctuating, a flexible and network-adaptive transport method is required. Thus, we propose a network-adaptive transport error control consisting of packet-level interleaved FEC and delay-constrained ARQ, which acts as an application-level transport method of streaming media to alleviate burst packet losses while adapting to the changing channel condition in wireless networks. The performances of the proposed network-adaptive transport error control, general error control schemes, and hybrid schemes are evaluated by a developed simulator at the transport-level and video quality of streaming media. Simulation results show that the proposed mechanism provides the best overall performance among compared other schemes in terms of the transport-level performance of error control and the performance of video quality for streaming media.

Unlike a terrestrial wireless sensor network which uses radio waves, UWASN(Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network) relies on acoustic waves. There are lots of ongoing researches for long latency and limited bandwidth of underwater sensor network by using acoustic wave. Packets transferred by node often colide in underwater sensor network due to long latency. To solve this kind of problem, in general, Back-off scheme which is used in wireless network is used. However, fixed Slot-time according to node allocation generates useless time delay, and this lowers network performance. In this thesis, active setting technique of Slot-time is proposed, and applied for already studied MAC protocol. At the conclusion, it was proved that the MAC protocol using the proposed scheme has better performance than existing MAC protocol as a result comparison.

As vehicles become more intelligent for safety and convenience of drivers, in-vehicle networking systems such as controller are network (CAN) have been widely used due to increasing number of electronic control unit (ECU). Recently, FlexRay was developed to replace CAN protocol in chassis networking systems, to remedy the shortage of transmission capacity and unsatisfactory real-time transmission delay of conventional CAN. However, it is difficult for vehicle network designers to calculate platform configuration registers (PCR) and determine a base cycle or slot length of FlexRay. To assist vehicle network designers for designing FlexRay cluster, this paper presents automatic field bus exchange format (FIBEX) generation algorithm from CANdb information, which is de-facto standard database format for CAN. To design this program, structures of FIBEX, CANdb and relationship among PCR variables are analyzed.

Traffic analysis during past years used the Poisson distribution or Markov model, assuming an exponential distribution of packet queue arrival. Recent studies, however, have shown aperiodic and burst characteristics of network traffics Such characteristics of data traffic enable the scalability of network, QoS, optimized design, when we analyze new traffic model having a self-similar characteristic. This paper analyzes the self-similar characteristics of a small-scale mixed traffic in a network simulation, the real WAN delay time, TCP packet size, and the total network usage.
