In this paper, an approach developed by the Finnish nuclear waste management organization, Posiva, for the construction license of a geological repository was reviewed. Furthermore, a computer program based on the approach was developed. By using the computer program, the lifetime of a copper disposal canister, which was a key engineered barrier of the geological repository, was predicted under the KAERI Underground Research Tunnel (KURT) geologic conditions. The computer program was developed considering the mass transport of corroding agents, such as oxygen and sulfide, through the buffer and backfill. Shortly after the closure of the repository, the corrosion depths of a copper canister due to oxygen in the pores of the buffer and backfill were calculated. Additionally, the long-term corrosion of a copper canister due to sulfide was analyzed in two cases: intact buffer and eroded buffer. Under various conditions of the engineered barrier, the corrosion lifetimes of the copper canister due to sulfide significantly exceeded one million years. Finally, this study shows that it is necessary to carefully characterize the transmissivity of rock and sulfide concentration during site characterization to accurately predict the canister lifetime.

The speed of hard disk which is based on mechanical operation is more slow than processor. The growth of processor speed is rapid by semiconductor technology, but the growth of disk speed which is based on mechanical operation is not enough. Buffer cache in main memory and disk cache in disk controller have been used in computer system to solve the speed gap between processor and I/O subsystem. In this paper, an efficient buffer cache and disk cache management scheme was proposed to restrict duplicated disk block between buffer cache and disk cache. The performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated by simulation.

Flash memory has become the most important storage media in mobile devices along with its attractive features such as low power consumption, small size, light weight, and shock resistance. However, a flash memory can not be written before erased because of its erase-before-write characteristic, which lead to some garbage collection when there is not enough space to use. In this paper, we propose a novel garbage collection scheme, called block-level buffer garbage collection. When it is need to do merge operation during garbage collection, the proposed scheme does not merge the data block and corresponding log block but also search the block-level buffer to find the corresponding block which will be written to flash memory in the next future, and then decide whether merge it in advance or not. Our experimental results show that the proposed technique improves the flash performance up to 4.6% by reducing the unnecessary block erase numbers and page copy numbers.

Today's environment of enterprise is changing. They have to face customers' demands with the right product, the right service and supply them at the right time. And aIso cut down logistics and inventory cost and bring up the Profit as much as they can. This means the change of putting enterprise first in importance to putting customer first in importance. therefore to correspond to customer's demand, shorting lead time is becoming a essential condition. The answer to this changes of environment is supply chain management In this study, we use Goldratt's drum-buffer-rope scheduling in between manufacturer and supplier. And when shortage of inventory occur, search for the supply chain's CCR. Pressing CCR for more production, and supply Inventory from logistic center to guide for inventory buffing. using logistic warehouse between manufacturer and supplier, can execute function of buffer.

Existing Internet services were almost supported by the best effort service such as the data transmission service and were allowed the transmission delay and packet loss. However, recent Internet multimedia services such as Internet phone, Internet broadcasting are required a real-time processing and high bandwidth. Therefore, many studies for providing Internet QoS are performed at IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). As the buffer management mechanism among IP QoS methods, active queue management method such as RED (Random Early Detection) algorithm has proposed. However, RED algorithm has a limitation of usage of an average buffer length and unfairness. So, many algorithms proposed as the modified algorithm of RED. But these modified algorithms also have difficulties to satisfy the requirements of various Internet user QoS. Therefore, in this paper we propose the QoS adaptive AQM (Active Queue Management) algorithm for the multimedia services that request various QoS requirements and present a performance evaluation by the simulations using the ns-2.

In this paper, we propose the global handover mechanism that is able to provide the unlimited range of next-generation multimedia mobile services in an integrated environment. This mechanism consists of a multicast source based forwarding scheme and a global session management scheme. Global session management scheme provides LMA session information management, global mobility and route optimization. Multicast source based forwarding scheme delivers data between previously attached LMA and newly attached LMA without packet loss. In addition, this scheme removes the redundancy of buffered data. We present a performance evaluation and features analysis by the simulations using the ns-2. Global session management scheme has a less handover latency, propagation delay and signaling cost than the conventional methods. Multicast source based forwarding scheme can deliver buffer data without loss and it has less buffer size than conventional method.

In this study, the optimal buffer size is calculated for seamless video playback on a mobile device. Buffer means the memory space for multimedia packet which arrives in mobile device for video play such as VOD service. If the buffer size is too large, latency time before video playback can be longer. However, if it is too short, playback service can be paused because of shortage of packets arrived. Hence, the optimal buffer size insures QoS of video playback on mobile devices. We model the process of buffering into a discret-time queueing model. Mean busy period length and mean waiting time of Geo/G/1 queue with N-policy is analyzed. After then, we uses the main performance measures to present numerical examples to decide the optimal buffer size on mobile devices. Our results enhance the user satisfaction by insuring the seamless playback and minimizing the initial delay time in VOD streaming process.

Cluster based VOD systems require elaborate load balancing and buffer management techniques in order to ensure real-time display for multiuser concurrently. In this paper, we propose a new load balancing technique based on the dynamic buffer partitioning in cluster based VOD servers. The proposed technique evenly distribute the user requests into each service node according to its available buffer capacity and disk access rate. In each node, the dynamic buffer partitioning technique dynamically partitions the buffer to minimize the average waiting time for the requests that access the same continuous media. The simulation results show that our proposed technique decreases the average waiting time by evenly distributing the user requests compared with the exiting techniques and then increases the throughput in each node. Particularly under the overloaded condition in the cluster server, the simulation probes that the performance of the proposed technique is better two times than the Generalized Interval Caching based technique.
