지구 정지궤도는 위성통신, 지구관측 그리고 우주과학을 위해 매우 귀중하고 제한된 자원으로 인식된다. 이에 따라 Inter-Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee (IADC)에서는 정지궤도에서 수명이 종료되는 위성에 대해서 정지궤도에 영향을 미치지 않도록 더 높은 고도로 폐기기동을 수행하도록 권고하고 있다. 그렇지만 여러 가지 사정으로 정상적인 폐기기동을 수행하지 않은 위성들이 많이 있으며 이와 같은 위성들은 정지궤도에서 운영되고 있는 위성에 접근하여 충돌위험을 야기하고 있다. 우리나라의 정지궤도 통신해양기상위성인 천리안은 2010년 6월 26일에 발사되어 동경 128.2도에서 성공적으로 운영되고 있다. 지난 2년 동안 천리안 위성의 궤도구간에 우주물체가 접근하여 충돌위험이 발생한 사례가 3 건이 있었으며 그 중 한 건인 러시아의 라두가 1-7 위성이 접근한 2011년 2월 7일에는 천리안 위성의 회피기동을 수행하였다. 다른 두 가지 사례는 2011년 6월 19일 러시아의 COSMOS 2379의 접근과 2012년 4월 6일 러시아의 SL-12 R/B(2)의 접근이다. 본 논문에서는 정지궤도 위성을 운영하고 있을 때 다른 우주물체가 접근하여 충돌위험이 발생했을 때 어떤 과정을 거쳐서 회피기동을 수행해야 하는가에 대한 문제를 다루고자 한다. 정지궤도 위성과 우주물체와의 거리차이를 최대화할 수 있는 회피기동 시각을 찾아내고 최근접 시각에 있어서 반경방향, 진행방향, 그리고 수직방향에서의 거리차이를 분석한다.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid MAC architecture for reducing energy consumption and maximizing network lifetime in wireless sensor networks. For this purpose, the hybrid MAC architecture is proposed for energy efficient by combining inter-cell TDMA and intra-cell CSMA scheme. Based on the ns-2 simulation result, we prove that the proposed architecture improves energy efficiency as compared with CSMA and TDMA.

This research is to design an effective buffer structure and its management for flash memory based high performance SSDs (Solid State Disks). Specifically conventional SSDs tend to show asymmetrical performance in read and /write operations, in addition to a limited number of erase operations. To minimize the number of erase operations and write latency, the degree of interleaving levels over multiple flash memory chips should be maximized. Thus, to increase the interleaving effect, an effective buffer structure is proposed for the SSD with a hybrid address mapping scheme and super-block management. The proposed buffer operation is designed to provide performance improvement and enhanced flash memory life cycle. Also its management is based on a new selection scheme to determine random and sequential accesses, depending on execution characteristics, and a method to enhance the size of sequential access unit by aggressive merging. Experiments show that a newly developed mapping table under the MBA is more efficient than the basic simple management in terms of maintenance and performance. The overall performance is increased by around 35% in comparison with the basic simple management.

Sensor nodes forming a sensor network have limited energy capacity such as small batteries and when these nodes are placed in a specific field, it is important to research minimizing sensor nodes' energy consumption because of difficulty in supplying additional energy for the sensor nodes. Clustering has been in the limelight as one of efficient techniques to reduce sensor nodes' energy consumption in sensor networks. However, energy saving results can vary greatly depending on election of cluster heads, the number and size of clusters and the distance among the sensor nodes. /This research has an aim to find the optimal set of clusters which can reduce sensor nodes' energy consumption. We use a Genetic Algorithm(GA), a stochastic search technique used in computing, to find optimal solutions. GA performs searching through evolution processes to find optimal clusters in terms of energy efficiency. Our results show that GA is more efficient than LEACH which is a clustering algorithm without evolution processes. The two-dimensional GA (2D-GA) proposed in this research can perform more efficient gene evolution than one-dimensional GA(1D-GA)by giving unique location information to each node existing in chromosomes. As a result, the 2D-GA can find rapidly and effectively optimal clusters to maximize lifetime of the sensor networks.

This study was carried out to review the distributional data of Dorcus hopei in Korea and to investigate ecological characteristics to develop a mass rearing technique of the species. The coupling period of the male and female was needed at least 2 weeks in condition of 6 months after emergence, and the optimal sex ratio for oviposition was 2♀：1♂. Eggs were laid singly, up to 27.3 per female. The pre-ovipostion period was average 147.3 days, egg-period was 15.6 days on the average, and oviposition period was at least 120 days. The optimum size of oviposition room was 55${\times}$40${\times}$35 cm with 3-4 oviposition-trees cut in size of 15${\times}$15 cm. Quercus acutissima was highly preferred for the oviposition. Developing period of each instar in the insectary (25$^{\circ}C$, 75％ R.H.. 16L：8D) was 24.1 days for the 1st instar,29.8 days for the 2nd, and 131.2 days for the 3rd instar, and 28.9 days for the pupa. The longevity of adults was longer than 35 months. The period of induced dormancy was needed at least 3-4 months.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of disregarding of heat detection on embryo production in superovulation of Hanwoo cows. Donors which showed 1 or 2 times of normal heat and had no abnormality of reproductive tract were selected The superovulation was performed injection of 2.5 mL FSH (Antorin R-10, Japan) 2 times on 5 days before next heat and continuously with the reduction of dose to 0.5 mL of first injection 2 times in a day for next 3 days. Otherwise, the donors of CIDR group were inserted CIDR plus (with the capsule of estradiol benzoate 10 mg) on Day 10 from standing heat for 9 days. On 6 days from insertion of CIDR, FSH was injected above same manners. The response according to the natural heat and CIDR were $82.2\%,\;89.7\%$, respectively. There were no difference between both treatments. The recovery rates of embryos were 7.7, 10.5, respectively and transferable embryos were 3.4, 3.8. There showed significant difference between both treatments (p<0.05). These results suggested that disregarding of heat detection in superovulation could be produced transferable embryos for embryo transfer and preserve the donors from the excess hormonal administration and maintain the economical lift span of genetically available Hanwoo donors.

Recently, a variety of research of multi-hop routing protocol have been done to balance the sensor node energy consumption of WSN(wireless sensor network) and to improve the node efficiency for extending the life of the entire network. Especially in multi-hop protocol, a variety of models have been concerned to improve energy efficiency and apply in the reality. In multi-hop protocol, we assumption that energy consumption can be adjusted based on the distance between the sensor nodes. However, according to the physical property of the actual WSN, it's hard to establish this assumption. In this dissertation, we propose low-power sub-cluster protocol to improve the energy efficiency based on the spread of distance. Compared with the previous protocols, this proposed protocol can be effectively used in the wireless sensing networks.

In this paper, we study mobile data collector (MDC) based data-gathering schemes in wireless sensor networks. In Such networks, MDCs are used to collect data from the environment and transfer them to the sink. The majority of existing data-gathering schemes suffer from high data-gathering latency because they use only a single MDC. Although some schemes use multiple MDCs, they focus on maximizing network lifetime rather than minimizing packet delay. In order to address the limitations of existing schemes, this paper focuses on minimizing packet delay for given number of MDCs and minimizing the number of MDCs for a given delay bound of packets. To achieve the minimum packet delay and minimum number of MDCs, two optimization problems are formulated, and traveling distance and traveling time of MDCs are estimated. The interior-point algorithm is used to obtain the optimal solution for each optimization problem. Numerical results and analysis are presented to validate the proposed method.

Recently, the energy harvesting technology in which energy is collected from the wireless signal which is transmitted by mobile communication devices, has been considered as a novel way to improve the life time of wireless sensors by mitigating the lack of power supply problem. In this paper, we consider the optimal sensing time and power allocation problem for cognitive radio systems, where the energy efficiency of secondary user is maximized while the constraint are satisfied, using the optimization technique. Based on the derived optimal solutions, we also have proposed an iterative resource allocation algorithm in which the optimal power and sensing time allocation can be found without excessive computations. The simulation results confirm that the proposed scheme achieves the optimal performance and it outperforms the conventional resource allocation schemes in terms of energy efficiency while the constraints are guaranteed to be satisfied.

National highway is one of the social infrastructures that continue to be managed in order to serve their full functions. The national highway has been managed by the Pavement Management System (PMS) until now. The PMS manages the highway as a way of facility maintenance and maximizes the service life of the highway with minimum cost. The cost is evaluated mainly with a facility manager's perspective based on engineering judgment. People's needs of quality of life have been increased as their income level is rising and naturally the opinion of citizen as a taxpayer plays an important role in determining national policy. Therefore, the contentment of a user's perspective was the starting point of addressing these needs. The Level of Service began to be used as a measure for the evaluation of the user's perspective. In this thesis we would like to design an application and a data architecture for a pavement asset management system and to show how it meets the requirements of KTAM-40 Systems.
