The current trend of low cost ultra-small satellites is to utilize Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) parts to save cost, and accordingly, Command and Data Handling (C&DH) that operates the satellite and collects/processes the data is also designed and developed around commercial controllers. However, functionalities of commercial controllers are limited according to the specs outlined by the manufacturer. In order for the commercial controllers to be used for satellites where variety of interfaces is required, a separate interface circuit is required. Therefore, a Multi Digital Data Control System (MDDCS) using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) has been developed in order to expand multiple digital interfaces that are not supported by the commercial controller, and also to compensate for SEU. This has been implemented on Actel A3P1000 using Very High Speed Integrated Circuits Hardware Description Language (VHDL).

This paper presents application of a differential search (DS) meta-heuristic optimization algorithm for optimal operation of a micro grid system. The DS algorithm simulates the Brownian-like random-walk movement used by an organism to migrate. The micro grid system consists of a wind turbine, a diesel generator, a fuel cell, and a photovoltaic system. The wind turbine generator is modeled by considering the characteristics of variable output. Optimization is aimed at minimizing the cost function of the system, including fuel costs and maximizing fuel efficiency to generate electric power. The simulation was applied to a micro grid system only. This study applies the DS algorithm with excellence and efficiency in terms of coding simplicity, fast convergence speed, and accuracy in the optimal operation of micro grids based on renewable energy resources, and we compared its optimum value to other algorithms to prove its superiority.

Until recently, Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) focused mainly on the development and acquisition of supportability factors (maintenance planning, maintenance tools, support equipment, supply support, maintenance training, etc.). In the long term, supportability strategies and policies are needed in terms of LEAN-like cost reduction, efficiency in the field of weapon systems. This study first introduces the concept of Lean, theory of Lean Maintenance and suggests Lean maintenance framework, maintenance strategy for ILS. The case studies were analyzed in terms of the maintenance time, maintenance man-hours, maintenance cost for Lean PM in a radar system. The direction of LEAN on supportability in a weapon system is suggested.

The visible light communication is considered as a next generation communication technology, when utilizes LED and PD for communication. Since it is easy to provide LOS communication environment along with cheap deployment cost, the positioning system based on VLC has been actively studied. However, the existing positioning system using VLC requires a complex computation and an additional deployment cost due to sensors for example. In this paper, we propose a new positioning system based on VLC which does not require additional complexity and the cost. In addition, the procedure for operating LED panels for positioning and the recognition schemes of pilot signal are proposed. The performance of recognition schemes of pilot signal is analyzed through the computer simulations.

In the environment with multiple heterogeneous wireless sensor networks with a single point of sensed data collection or a gateway (GW), relay points (RPs) may be required for the energy efficient delivery of sensed data from static or mobile sinks to the GW. The optimal placement of RPs becomes an even more difficult problem if static sinks are dynamically added or the trajectory of mobile sinks can not be known in advance. In order to resolve this problem, we propose a mechanism to deploy RPs in a grid pattern and to use the tree-based relaying network for reducing the cost of the RP and for reducing the control overhead incurred by the route setup from sinks to the GW. For the performance evaluation of our proposed mechanism, we have carried out a numerical analysis on a single route setup from a sink to the GW and, for more general performance evaluations, ns-2 based simulations have been carried out. According to the performance evaluation results, our tree-based relaying network mechanism outperforms that based on AODV in terms of the data delivery time, the network service time and the control overhead.

Railroad rolling stock has long service life and a lot of maintenance cost running on rail by wear and vibration. And it is very important to get optimization of maintenance. This paper want to analyze rolling stock maintenance situation of KORAIL and find out its improvement methods. Especially, the purpose of this paper is to adopt the most effective maintenance period and methods to daily inspection which needs many maintenance manpower in rolling stock. Rolling stock has self-diagnosis function using computer system and the quality of rolling stock has much improved these days but current daily inspection repeat for short period routinely and it is very ineffective. Therefore, the paper adopt improved daily inspection period reflecting the characteristics of rolling stock, and want to secure reliability of rolling stock and minimize maintenance cost.

IEEE standard 802.16, often referred to as WiMAX, is considered a "last mile" broadband wireless access alternative to conventional DSL and Cable Internet. One extension that is recently receiving great attention is the IEEE 802.16j Mobile Multihop Relay (MMR) amendment. The focus of this amendment is the development of simple and lower cost relay stations (RSs) that can enhance network coverage and capacity. We use our proposed simple scheduling scheme for serving the SSs in a fair manner and evaluate the performance of WiMAX networks with relays, especially we analyze the impact of interference between RSs on cell throughput Through simulations and numerical analysis, we make several fundamental observations about interference aware cost effective coverage extension in such networks.

The 'Open Source' of programing is a method that is not only sharing the source, but also making the S/W by the low cost and easy way. In this study, we made the urban facilities management system(FMS) based on the GeoFOSS of Open Source. This system has the GIS function of the urban facilities management, the u-GIS function using the USN for processing the spatial information. Also, as we use the GeoFOSS of 'Open Source', we can have received many benefits. First, this system has the economic impact, because it is not necessary to buy the commercial GIS software. Second, this system can make most functions of the GIS, the performance does not bad compared to other products. Also, this system strictly conforms to the international standards, it is easy to get a repair, maintenance and interoperability.

본 연구는 우려나라 기업집단(企業集團)의 비용함수분석(費用函數分析)을 통해 제조업과 금융업간의 기술적 생산조건을 규명함으로써 제조산업(製造産業)과 금융업겸영(金融業兼營)의 효율성여부를 분석하고, 앞으로의 바람직한 금융소유지배규제정책방향(金融所有支配規制政策方向)을 모색하고 있다. 기업집단의 비용함수분석결과에 의하면 비금융제조업(非金融製造業)과 증권업(證卷業)간에는 범위(範圍)의 경제(經濟)(상호효율증진효과(相互效率增進效果))가 있는 반면 제조업(製造業)과 은행업(銀行業)이나 기타금융업과(其他金融業)의 사이에는 그런 관계가 부재(不在)하며, 우리나라 기업집단(企業集團)들은 평균적으로 규모가 과대하여 비효율(非效率)을 초래하고 있는 것으로 관찰되고 있다. 앞으로 우리 경제(經濟)의 개방화(開放化)와 금융자율화(金融自律化) 그리고 세계경제(世界經濟)의 통합화(統合化)가 진전됨에 따라서 제조업(製造業)과 증권업(證卷業)의 겸영(兼營)및 소유지배관계(所有支配關係)는 지속강화(持續强化)되겠지만 제조업(製造業)과 은행업(銀行業)과의 관계는 오히려 그 연계(連繫)가 약화(弱化)되며, 기업집단(企業集團)의 평균규모도 축소조정(縮小調整)될 것으로 전망된다. 이에 따라 장기적으로 금융소유규제정책(金融所有規制政策)은, 우선은 은행업과 제조업간의 소유지배를 허용하든 금지하든 어느 경우나 뚜렷한 자원배분(資源配分)의 왜곡(歪曲)이나 효율증진효과(效率增進效果)가 나타나지는 않기 때문에, 정부가 특정 소유구조를 강제하기보다는 은행(銀行)이나 기업(企業)들이 자체판단(自體判斷)에 의해 최적소유구조(最適所有構造)를 결정(決定)하도록 하되, 특정 소유지배관계(所有支配關係)의 형성이 금융산업 및 경제내에 경쟁저해적(競爭沮害的) 효과(效果)를 초래하지 않도록 하는 경쟁정책적(競爭政策的)차원에서 접근(接近)하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다. 그리고 소유집중(所有集中)에 따른 은행(銀行)의 안전(安全) 건전성(健全性) 저해효과(沮害效果)를 방지하기 위해서는 동일인(同一人) 여신한도(與信限度)의 엄격한 운용(運用) 등 건전감독기능(健全監督機能)을 보강해야 할 것이다.

This paper suggests new route plan cost calculation and cost-effective route plan algorithm and architecture for the new city traffic information system when it is operated nationwide. New algorithm and architecture estimates cost with traffic speeds which is supported for all different lanes, stratifies logical layer which process different levels' traffic information with diverse traffic patterns and provides different traffic information in the few levels. Also suggested new algorithm supports drivers' customized traffic information through both-way communications and plans routes effectively based on the distance between drivers' start position and destination and different levels which start and end position located. It proposes additional research items and requirement for integration between different cities' traffic information system which the national police agency invested and led.
