Boundary Station is an evaluation index that was not reflected in the Seoul Metropolitan Urban Railroad Connected Eare Allocation. Boundary station is a station located at the boundary point of two transportation agencies sharing the same route, and track operation methods are divided into business management and maintenance management. Until now, the Connected Fare Allocation has evaluated the boundary stations from the perspective of business management. Meanwhile, the integrated public transportation fee system requires the need to interpret the boundary stations from the point of view of maintenance management at the developmental level. This study was prepared a measure to quantitatively analyze changes in income with the introduction of maintenance methods in mind. The Change in the income of operation agency evaluated based on the daily transportation card data for the boundary stations of the four Seoul Transportation Corporation and KORAIL sections. This study is meaningful as a basic research for an analytical judgment that evaluates and allocates changes in transportation income of Seoul Metropolitan Urban Railroad in the future.

The Integrated Public Transport Reforms of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, which were implemented on the $1^{st}$ of July. 2004, launched a new fare allocation method. However, when a Private transit operator or a new transport system is introduced into the existing system, it will cause an allocation problem. Therefore, this study aims to Propose a rational fare allocation method which can be applicable regardless of the number of Public transportation modes or operators. To create alternatives, this study has adopted a fundamental principle of revenue allocation methods for the transit or communications sectors, and has applied it to the current transit system of Seoul. This study kas analyzed results of the cost recovery ratios and characteristics of each alternative through case studies. This study kas Presented an assessment criterion Z in order to select an optimal alternative. The criterion consists of the sum of the cost recovery ratio of each operator and the difference of the cost recovery ratio for each agency in inter-agency transit. Using the assessment criterion. the results showed that Alternative 1 is superior to the others : Alternative 1 is considering passenger-km of each operator and unit cost of passenger-km for each operator.

If a mobile station requests a channel allocation in its mobile networks, the switching center assigns a channel to a mobile station that belongs to each base station. There are three kinds of channel allocation schemes; a fixed channel allocation, a dynamic channel allocation and a hybrid combination of these two forms. In assigning a good frequency, it is our intention to provide quality service to our customers as well as to use resources efficiently. This paper proposes methods of assigning frequencies that minimize interference between channels and that also minimize the amount of searching time involved. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to per specific equipment, regardless of the number of channels that can be used as a general-purpose system, such as base stations, control stations, central office model is proposed, the existing operators manner similar to the fixed channel allocation based statistics and assigned when the conventional method and the improved method is proposed. Different ways and compared via simulations to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Given the local traders with pattern-based multi-predictors of stock prices, we study a method of dynamic asset allocation to maximize the trading performance. To optimize the proportion of asset allocated to each recommendation of the predictors, we design an asset allocation strategy called meta policy in the reinforcement teaming framework. We utilize both the information of each predictor's recommendations and the ratio of the stock fund over the total asset to efficiently describe the state space. The experimental results on Korean stock market show that the trading system with the proposed meta policy outperforms other systems with fixed asset allocation methods. This means that reinforcement learning can bring synergy effects to the decision making problem through exploiting supervised-learned predictors.

This study proposes the improvement of the present Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) management system of MOE (Ministry of Environment). The margin of safety (MOS) is calculated by a method using standard error and a method using variability and uncertainty. The allocation of pollutant loads are calculated using three methods, equal load reduction method, equal percent removal method and method using equity standards. This study applied the improved TMDL management system to the Anyangcheon watershed. Since MOS varies from 12% to 44% due to the high variability of measured and simulated data, it must not be ignored in the TMDL. The method using equity standards is the most proper in this application since the others produced unrealistic allocations. Area, runoff, water use quantity, population and budget are considered for equity standards. This study shows that this allocation method can be also applicable for the administrative units as well as the sub-watersheds. Finally, Hydrologic Simulation Program-FORTRAN (HSPF) with the allocated pollutant load was used to confirm whether it satisfy the water quality standard or not. This study will be helpful to improve the MOS and allocation system TMDL in the future.

The performance of DHCS depends on the algorithm which schedules input DAG. However, as the task scheduling problem in DHCS is an NP-complete problem, heuristic approach has to be made. Task scheduling algorithm consists of task prioritizing phase and processor allocation phase, and most of studies are considering both phases together. In this paper, we focus on task prioritizing phase and propose a WPD algorithm which is optimized for task duplication based processor allocation method. For an evaluation of the proposed WPD algorithm, we combined WPD algorithm with processor allocation phase of HMPID, HCPFD, HCT algorithms, which are using task duplication based processor allocation method. The results show that WPD algorithm makes a better use of task duplication than conventional task prioritizing methods and provides 9.58% better performance than HCPFD algorithm, 1.31% than HCT algorithm.

Controlled transfer (CT) service has been recently proposed as a new ATM transfer capability for high-speed data applications, which used a credit-based flow control. This paper investigates buffer allocation schemes for CT service and proposes an improved dynamic bugger allocation scheme. In order to improve the responsiveness to a congestion, the proposed method is considered the load factor of a link when determining the amounts of virtual connection (VC)s buffer allocation. Also, in this paper we compare the performance of the proposed method with those of the existing buffer allocation methods such as flow controlled virtual channels (FCVC) and zero queueing flow control (ZQFC) through simulation. Simulation results show tat the proposed scheme exhibits a better performance than the existing schemes in terms of throughput, fairness, queue length and link utilization.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate public preferences regarding allocation principles for scarce medical resources in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, particularly in comparison with the recommendations of ethicists. Methods: An online survey was conducted with a nationally representative sample of 1509 adults residing in Korea, from November 2 to 5, 2020. The degree of agreement with resource allocation principles in the context of the medical resource constraints precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic was examined. The results were then compared with ethicists' recommendations. We also examined whether the perceived severity of COVID-19 explained differences in individual preferences, and by doing so, whether perceived severity helps explain discrepancies between public preferences and ethicists' recommendations. Results: Overall, the public of Korea agreed strongly with the principles of "save the most lives," "Koreans first," and "sickest first," but less with "random selection," in contrast to the recommendations of ethicists. "Save the most lives" was given the highest priority by both the public and ethicists. Higher perceived severity of the pandemic was associated with a greater likelihood of agreeing with allocation principles based on utilitarianism, as well as those promoting and rewarding social usefulness, in line with the opinions of expert ethicists. Conclusions: The general public of Korea preferred rationing scarce medical resources in the COVID-19 pandemic predominantly based on utilitarianism, identity and prioritarianism, rather than egalitarianism. Further research is needed to explore the reasons for discrepancies between public preferences and ethicists' recommendations.

In this study, the applicability of dynamic water quality model to TMDL system was examined, methods for setting of water quality goal and estimation of allocation loads were suggested and results of applying these methods were analyzed. HSPF model was applied for Miho stream basin as a dynamic water quality model. The model was calibrated using measurement data obtained in 2009~2010 and showed satisfactory performance in predicting daily variations of flow rate and BOD concentration. Methods for TMDL application were categorized into 3 cases; water quality management (1) considering low flow condition(Case I), (2) considering entire period of the year (Case II) and (3) considering the worst water quality condition (Case III). BOD water quality goals at the end of Miho stream watershed increased in the order of Case IICase I>Case III. If further researches on base precipitation and method for model input of nonpoint source pollutant were carried out, water quality could be managed more reasonably and scientifically by applying dynamic water quality model to TMDL. The result of this study is expected to be used as primary data for TMDL using dynamic water quality model.
