Slotted-Aloha (S-Aloha) has been widely employed in random access networks owing to its simple implementation in a distributed manner. To enhance the throughput performance of the S-Aloha, connection-based slotted-Aloha (CS-Aloha) has been proposed in recent years. The fundamental principle of the CS-Aloha is to establish a connection with a short-sized request packet before transmitting data packets. Subsequently, the connected node transmits long-sized data packets in a batch of size M. This approach efficiently reduces collisions, resulting in improved throughput compared to the S-Aloha, particularly for a large M. In this paper, we address the short-term fairness of the CS-Aloha, as quantified by Jain's fairness index. Specifically, we evaluate how equitably the CS-Aloha allocatestime slots to all nodes in the network within a finite time interval. Through simulation studies, we identify the impact of system parameters on the short-term fairness of the CS-Aloha and propose an optimal transmission probability to support short-term fairness.

This paper proposed a method to design the offset slotted rectangular microstrip patch antenna which can be used for GPS antenna. The multi-port connection method and the desegmentation technique had been used to analyze !he characteristics of this antenna. To reduce a size of this antenna, a dielectric substrate with a high permittivity($\varepsilon_{\gamma}$=10.2) was used and a offset rectangular slot was inserted in the microstrip patch antenna. The dimension of a manufactured antenna is $20\times30\times1.27$[mm]. Accordingly this small antenna can be used directly GPS antenna or cellular phone.

Among the various alternatives to make a steel tubular member connection, making a slotted and gusset plate welded connection is one of the most frequently preferred alternatives. This type of connection is essentially an end connection that is made by slotting the tube longitudinally, inserting the gusset plate and then placing longitudinal fillet welds at the tube-to-plate interface. In this paper an experimental study on the behaviour of such connections in stainless steel is presented. 24 specimens were tested under concentrically applied axial tensile forces for varying tube-to-gusset plate weld lengths. Both circular and box section members were considered in the test program. Load-deformation curves were obtained and comparisons were made in terms of strength and ductility. The results obtained from the study were then critically examined and compared with currently available design guidance for slotted gusset plate welded tubular end connections. It is noted that no specific rules exist in international specifications on structural stainless steel which cover the design of such connections. Therefore, the results of this study are compared with the existing design rules for carbon steel.

This letter presents a reconfigurable ground-slotted patch antenna using a PIN diode connection in slots to achieve dual-frequency operation. Slots in the ground plane increase the electrical length and thereby reduce antenna size by 53%. By controlling PIN diode conduction, we achieved band hopping while still satisfying the bandwidth requirements for K-PCS and WiBro bands.

Advances in circuit and integration technology are continuously boosting the speed of processors. One of the main challenges presented by such developments is the effective use of powerful processors in shared memory multiprocessor system. We believe that the interconnection problem is not solved even for small scale shared memory multiprocessor, since the speed of shared buses is unlikely to keep up with the bandwidth requirements of new powerful processors. In the past few years, point-to-point unidirectional connection have emerged as a very promising interconnection technology. The single slotted ring is the simplest form point-to-point interconnection. The main limitation of the single slotted ring architecture is that latency of access increase linearly with the number of the processors in the ring. Because of this, we proposed the dual slotted ring as an alternative to single slotted ring for cache-based multiprocessor system. In this paper, we analyze the proposed dual slotted ring architecture using new snooping protocol and enforce simulation to compare it with single slotted ring.

This paper deals with the numerical model of a bracing-friction damper system and its deployment using the optimal slip load distribution for the seismic retrofitting of a damaged building. The Slotted Bolted Connection (SBC) type friction damper system was tested to investigate its energy dissipation characteristic. Test results coincided with the numerical ones using the conventional model of a bracing-friction damper system. The placement of this device was numerically explored to apply it to the assumed damaged-building and to evaluate its efficiency. It was found by distributing the slip load that minimizes the given performance indicies based on structural response. Numerical results for the damaged building retrofitted with this slip load distribution showed that the seismic design of the bracing-friction damper system under consideration is effective for the structural response reduction.

We consider connection-oriented wireless cellular networks. These networks employ dedicated radio channels for the transmission of signaling information. A forward signaling channel is a common signaling channel assigned to carry the multiplexed stream of paging and channel allocation(virtual circuit allocation) packets from a base station to mobile stations. The delay levels experienced by paging and channel allocation packets have serious effect on the utilization level of the limited radio channel capacity. While a slotted mode operation is used to reduce the power consumption level at mobile stations, it may induce an increase in packet delay levels. In this paper, we thus consider a multiplexing scheme for paging and channel allocation packets under which slots are dynamically allocated for the paging packet transmission. For this dynamic scheme, we develop an analytical method for deriving the delay characteristics exhibited by paging and channel allocation packets, and investigate the effect of network parameters on the delay level by using this method.

A friction-type reinforcing member(FRM) is proposed for the purpose of upgrading wind resistant performance of a transmission tower and verified through cyclic loading tests. First, suitable install scheme of the FRM is investigated through numerical analysis. Main-post-reinforcing type and X-brace type installation schemes are examined, and numerical analysis shows that the former is more effective due to the vertical cantilever type behavior of the transmission tower. Based on this result, two types of the FRM's, dissipating energy in slotted belted connections, are proposed. The one utilizes the relative displacement between the FRM and the main post, and the other utilizes that between the separated angles consisting of the FRM as a slip deformation of the slotted bolted connection. Proposed FRM's are installed on each main post of the 1/2 scale substructure models of an actual transmission tower body. From cyclic loading tests, the latter type of the proposed FRM's dissipates energy more effectively and its slip load is controlled by applied torque well, and shares considerable amount of the axial force in the main post.

Various hybrid dampers have been developed as increasing tall buildings in Korea. To minimize the installment space and cost, the new hybrid friction damper was developed using friction components. It is composed of two one-nodal rotary frictional components and a slotted bolted frictional connection. Because of these components, hybrid friction damper can be activated by building movements due to lateral forces such as a wind and earthquake. In this paper, displacement amplitude dependency tests were carried out to evaluate on the structural performance and the multi-slip mechanism of the hybrid damper. Test results show that the multi-slip mechanism is verified and friction coefficients are increasing as displacement amplitudes are increasing.
