This paper addresses the problem that policy iteration (PI) for continuous-time (CT) systems requires explorations of the state space which is known as persistency of excitation in adaptive control community, and as a result, proposes a PI scheme explorized by an additional probing signal to solve the addressed problem. The proposed PI method efficiently finds in online fashion the related CT linear quadratic (LQ) optimal control without knowing the system matrix A, and guarantees the stability and convergence to the LQ optimal control, which is proven in this paper in the presence of the probing signal. A design method for the probing signal is also presented to balance the exploration of the state space and the control performance. Finally, several simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed explorized PI method.

A critical issue in the performance of a video-on-demand system is the I/O bandwidth required in order to satisfy client requests. Several approaches: batching, bridging, piggybacking are used ot reduce the I/O demand on the video server through sharing. Piggybacking is the policy for altering display rates of requests in progress fro the same object, for the purpose of merging their corresponding I/O streams into a single stream, which can serve the entire group of merged requests. In this paper, we propose a new policy called an adaptive reservation-based piggybacking that dynamically reserves the I/O stream capacity of video server for popular videos according to video server loads to immediately schedule the requests for popular videos. The performance of the proposed policy is evaluated through simulations, and is compared with that of simple piggybacking. As the result, we know that the adaptive reservation-based piggybacking provides better service probability, average waiting time and percentages saving in frames than simple piggybacking.

It is widely known that optimal control techniques are useful to measure the performance of macroeconomic policy. This paper examines how the method could be applies them to the evaluation of the public investment expenditures conducted by the local government of Choongbook Province in Korea. The numerical example illustrates the usefulness of the methods for the evaluation of the regional economic policies suggesting the main findings as follows: (1) If the local government of Choongbook Province had increased the public investment expenditures allowing the budget deficits for the first three to four years during the period between 1985 and 1990, its GRDP would have early risen to the ratio of more than three percent of Korea's total GDP. (2) The additonal welfare losses incurred by not following the optimal policy were 0.191 in 1986, 0.607 in 1987, 1.585 in 1988, and 0.132 in 1989, indicating that the public investment policy proves to be the best in 1989 and the worst in 1988.

The Schumpeterian process of "creative destruction", associated with the emergence and diffusion of new radical, so-called "general purpose" technologies, has throughout history impacted wealth and income, jobs creation, jobs displacement, and the emergence and submergence of new hotspots of innovation. Emerging countries have benefited most from such a renewing of those societies' dynamics, leading them to higher levels of economic development and welfare. Doing so they have shown a remarkable capacity in moving upstream in the value chain, from outsourcing of manufacturing activities to autonomous process technology development, product development, design, and applied research. At the same time however, such Schumpeterian processes have now and then turned into exactly opposite processes of "destructive creation." Such processes seem to have become common among what could be called "submerging" economies: innovation only benefitting a few at the expense of many with as a result an opposite pattern of a long term reduction in overall welfare, productivity, and employment growth.

In this paper, we consider a service system with bi-functional servers, which can switch between the primary service room and the secondary room. A service policy is characterized by the switching paints which depend on the queue length in the primary service room and the service level requirement constraint of the secondary room. The primary service room is modeled as a Markovian queueing system and the throughput of the primary service room is function of the total number of bi-functional servers. the buffer capacity of the primary service room, and the service policy. There is a revenue obtained from throughput and costs due to servers and buffers. We study the problem of simuitaneously determining the optimal number of servers, buffer capacity, and service policy to maximize profit of the service system, and develop an algorithm which can be successfully applied with the small number of computations.

In this thesis, we design and implement a Flash Cache Core Module (FCCM) which operates on the YAFFS NAND flash memory. The FCCM applies memory replacement policy and prefetching policy based on the page reference pattern of applications. Also, implement the Clean-First memory replacement technique considering the characteristics of flash memory. In this method the decision is made according to page hit to apply prefetched waiting area. The FCCM decrease I/O hit frequency up to 37%, Compared with the linux cache and prefetching policy. Also, it operated using less memory for prefetching(maximum 24% and average 16%) compared with the linux kernel.

현재 인터넷에서 QoS(Quality of Service )를 보장하기 위해 다양한 메커니즘이 제안되고 있다. 통신망에서 QoS를 지원하기 위해서는 해당 응용 서비스마다 적절한 자원을 할당하고 자원 사용을 모니터링 및 제어하며, 이례적인 사건이 발생하였을 경우 자원을 재할당할 수 있도록 지원하는 자원관리 기능이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 차등서비스를 제공하는 인터넷에서 QoS를 제공하기 위해 망자원을 관리 및 제어하는 정책기반 자원관리시스템의 설계 및 구현에 대해 기술한다. 정책기반 자원관리 시스템은 도메인 내의 사용자나 망 관리자로부터 QoS 요구를 받으면 도메인 내의 자원사용량과 자원사용정책에 따라서 내부자원을 할당하고, 이웃도메인과는 QoS가 보장되도록 SLA(Service Level Agreement)를 체결하는 기능을 수행한다. 구현한 정책기반 자원관리시스템은 정책정보를 PIB(Policy Information Base)의 형태로 정책 데이터베이스에 저장하며, 정책서버와 정책 클라이언트 사이에는COPS(Common Open Policy Service)프로토콜을 사용하여 정책 정보를 송수신함을 특징으로 한다.

Purpose: Companies in haste for higher consumers' preference tend to appear as 'green' and mislead about environmental concerns, which are termed as "Greenwashing." The purpose of the study is to investigate the consumer perception on greenwashing activities and analyze its impact on green brand image, green brand loyalty and green brand trust among Indian consumers. Design/methodology: The study makes use of a written questionnaire method to collect survey data from approximately 500 consumers all over India. The study uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to study the hypothesized relationship between constructs affected by greenwashing based on consumer perspective in the Indian context. Findings: The study shows that Indian consumers are becoming aware of greenwashing activities, which have a negative impact on green brand trust and undermines green brand image and green brand loyalty. Implications: The study results are beneficial to policy-makers, researchers, practitioners, and managers to create awareness among Indian consumers on greenwashing activities.

Gyeongsangnam-do needed an employment stability response policy to induce re-employment of job seekers who retired due to large-scale unemployment and job instability following the employment crisis, and stable settlement and long-term employment after new employment.This study is to confirm the effective corporate support policy as an employment promotion strategy through new recruitment of the employment crisis in Gyeongsangnam-do. A total of 380 companies in Gyeongsangnam-do were targeted for the survey through online surveys and in-person surveys. As a result of the study, as a measure to improve working conditions through financial support for long-term employment stability, first, support for youth-middle-age asset formation of SME workers is required, and second, support for old-age income guarantee for SME workers was proposed. Third, direct corporate subsidies are continuously needed for job promotion and job stability of Gyeongsangnam-do companies.

The article proposes a method of modeling a comprehensive indicator for evaluating the effectiveness of regional management of innovation activity. This will make it possible to assess the effectiveness of personnel, financial and credit and foreign economic activity of the regions from the standpoint of an integrated approach. The modeling technique is proposed to be carried out using the tools of taxonomic analysis and the calculation of a complex indicator of the effectiveness of the innovation activity management.
