Traffic unbalance between uplink and downlink is one of the most notable characteristics in the next generation cellular mobile systems which provide multimedia services such as voice and video telephony, high-speed internet access, and mobile computing, etc. The CDMA/TDD system with unbalanced slot allocation between two links is a good solution for the traffic unbalance in this paper, we formulate the time slot and channel allocation problem for the CDMA/TDD systems in general multicell environments, which is to maximize the system capacity under the given traffic unbalance, and solve that problem by simulated annealing technique. Computational experiments show that the proposed scheme yields a good performance.

The origin of image-slicking in metal-insulator-metal type thin-film-diode(TFD) LCDs is the asymmetric current-voltage(I-V) characteristic of TFD element. we developed that MIM-LCDs have reduced-image-sticking and perfect symmetry characteristic. One-Time Post-Annealing (OPTA) heat treatment process was introduced to reduce the asymmetry and shift of the I-V characteristics, respectively. OPTA means that the whole layers of lower metal, insulator, and uuper metal are annealed at one time. The treatment temperatures and fabricated process of TFD element were under foot. Also, this low temperature fabricated process allows the application of plastic substrates.

One form of job shop scheduling problem in contemporary automated manufacturing such as flexible manufacturing systems (FMS's) is presented which we call the FMS dispatching priority problem. The FMS dispatching priority problem seeks the best dispatching priority of parts and operations, and is essentially a combinatorial optimization problem. Because of the complicated mechanism of the system, the performance of a given dispatching priority must be evaluated via simulation. Simulated annealing have been applied to the problem, and it is found that appropriate parameter setting will be desirable to get good, if not the optimal, solutions within a limited amount of time under the presence of heavy computational burden due to simulation. More specifically, experiments reveal that initial temperature is the single most important factor among other parameters and factors, and that the appropriate initial temperature depends on the allowable computer time in such a way that the less time one can afford to spend, the lower the appropriate initial temperature should be.

The effect of annealing on the pitting corrosion resistance of anodized Al-Mg alloy (AA5052) processed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) was investigated by electrochemical techniques in a solution containing 0.2 mol/L of $AlCl_3$ and also by surface analysis. The Al-Mg alloy was annealed at a fixed temperature between 473 and 573 K for 120 min in air after ECAP. Anodizing was conducted for 40 min at $100-400A/m^2$ at 293 K in a solution containing 1.53 mol/L of $H_2SO_4$ and 0.0185 mol/L of $Al_2(SO_4)_3$. The internal stress generated in anodic oxide films during anodization was measured with a strain gauge to clarify the effect of ECAP on the pitting corrosion resistance of anodized Al-Mg alloy. The time required to initiate the pitting corrosion of anodized Al-Mg alloy was shorter in samples subjected to ECAP, indicating that ECAP decreased the pitting corrosion resistance. However, the pitting corrosion resistance was greatly improved by annealing after ECAP. The time required to initiate pitting corrosion increased with increasing annealing temperature. The strain gauge attached to Al-Mg alloy revealed that the internal stress present in the anodic oxide films was compressive stress, and that the stress was larger with ECAP than without. The compressive internal stress gradually decreased with increasing annealing temperature. Scanning electron microscopy showed that cracks occurred in the anodic oxide film on Al-Mg alloy during initial corrosion and that the cracks were larger with ECAP than without. The ECAP process of severe plastic deformation produces large internal stresses in the Al-Mg alloy; the stresses remain in the anodic oxide films, increasingthe likelihood of cracks. It is assumed that the pitting corrosion is promoted by these cracks as a result of the higher internal stress resulting from ECAP. The improvement in the pitting corrosion resistance of anodized AlMg alloy as a result of annealing appears to be attributable to a decrease in the internal stresses in anodic oxide films

A printable time temperature integrator (TTI) consisting of oxygen indicator and cover films with various oxygen permeability was developed. The printing ink contained methylene blue (oxygen indicator) which changed in color during storage. $TiO_2$ and glycerol for UV-activation of TTI and zein and ethanol for printing performance were also contained in the printing ink. The cover film on the ink was employed to control the color change rate and temperature dependency (Arrhenius activation energy, $E_a$) by using the different films (PE, PET, OPP, and LLDPE). The film properties were varied by annealing. TTI was produced by silk screen printing. As a result, the color change rates were different for the cover films, being the highest in TTI with LLDPE, followed by OPP, PE, and PET. The rate decreased with increase in the cover film thickness. The $E_a$ was the highest in TTI with LLDPE, followed by OPP, PE, and PET. The $E_a$ did not change with the cover film thickness. The annealed PVC and PET film were lower in oxygen permeability than the unannealed ones, indicating the lower color change rate.

In this paper, we propose a real-time classifier to distinguish humans from livestock by using the spatial integral. The image-difference method and the Expectation Maximization are used to reduce noises in input image. A histogram analysis based on Simulated Annealing and the fuzzy-Bayesian algorithm are used to classify human and livestock. Finally, the experiment results show the validity of the proposed method.

This paper proposes an approach for individual selection in genetic algorithms to improve problem solving efficiency and effectiveness. To investigate the utility of combining simulated annealing with genetic algorithm, two experiment are conducted that compare both the conventional genetic algorithm and suggested approach. Result indicated that suggested approach significantly reduced the required time to find optimal solution in moderate-sized problems under the conditions studied. It is also found that quality of the solutions generated by suggested approach in large- sized problems is greatly improved.

In this study, we developed new process for doping poly-Si film. Sb(antimony) thin film was used as doping source. Sb was evaporated on poly-Si film deposited by LPCVD fallowed by annealing. We investigate sheet resistance variation with annealing temperature and time. Finally we adapted this process to poly-Si TFT fabrication.

This paper compares the simulated annealing and the Hopfield neural network method for an optimal routing in a multistage interconnection network(MIN). The MIN provides a multiple number of paths for ATM cells to avoid cell conflict. Exhaustive search always finds the optimal path, but with heavy computation. Although greedy method sets up a path quickly, the path found need not be optimal. The simulated annealing can find an sub optimal path in time comparable with the greedy method.

Microwave has been utilized for low-temperature crystallization of amorphous Si films. Microwave annealing lowered the crystallization temperature and shortened the annealing time. The combination of Ni and microwave applications on a-Si films further enhanced the crystallization. The enhancement was due to both reduced nucleation activation energy and growth activation energy.
