The requirements for powerful computing capability, high capacity, low latency and low energy consumption of emerging services, pose severe challenges to the fifth-generation (5G) network. As a promising paradigm, mobile edge networks can provide services in proximity to users by deploying computing components and cache at the edge, which can effectively decrease service delay. However, the coexistence of heterogeneous services and the sharing of limited resources lead to the competition between various services for multiple resources. This paper considers two typical heterogeneous services: computing services and content delivery services, in order to properly configure resources, it is crucial to develop an effective offloading and caching strategies. Considering the high energy consumption of 5G base stations, this paper considers the hybrid energy supply model of traditional power grid and green energy. Therefore, it is necessary to design a reasonable association mechanism which can allocate more service load to base stations rich in green energy to improve the utilization of green energy. This paper formed the joint optimization problem of computing offloading, caching and resource allocation for heterogeneous services with the objective of minimizing the on-grid power consumption under the constraints of limited resources and QoS guarantee. Since the joint optimization problem is a mixed integer nonlinear programming problem that is impossible to solve, this paper uses deep reinforcement learning method to learn the optimal strategy through a lot of training. Extensive simulation experiments show that compared with other schemes, the proposed scheme can allocate resources to heterogeneous service according to the green energy distribution which can effectively reduce the traditional energy consumption.

A detailed geothermal characteristics survey with numerical simulations of the heat transfer in a site for ground source heat pump system is necessary for deploying a shallow geothermal utilization system. Density, specific heat, thermal diffusivity, and thermal conductivity are measured on 91 core samples from a 300 m deep borehole in KIGAM(Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources). The heat flow is estimated from the thermal gradient and average thermal conductivity and the correlation between fracture system and hydraulic conductivity is analyzed. From the obtained ground information of the study site the performance of the ground heat pump system can be analyzed with some detailed numerical simulations for seasonal heat pump operation skill and optimal system design techniques.

최근 무선 센서 네트워크는 다양한 응용분야의 플랫폼으로써 사용되고 있다. 무선 센서를 배치하고, 센서 네트워크를 구성함으로써 원격으로 어떤 영역에 포함된 객체들의 동작, 상태, 위치 등에 관한 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 일반적으로 센서 노드들은 제한된 배터리로 동작하기 때문에 센서 네트워크의 생명주기를 연장시키기 위한 에너지 효율적인 데이타 수집 메커니즘은 필수 조건이다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터 헤드의 에너지 소모를 분산할 수 있는 새로운 클러스터링 기법을 제안한다. 먼저 클러스터 헤드의 역할에 따른 에너지 소모를 분석하고, 클러스터를 수집과 전송을 위한 두 계층으로 분리한다. 다음 각 계층을 담당하는 센서 노드를 선출하여 단일 클러스터 헤드의 에너지 소모를 2개의 센서 노드로 분산한다. 제안하는 클러스터링 기법의 우수성을 보이기 위해 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존의 클러스터링 기법과 성능을 비교했다. 그 결과, 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 생명 주기(lifetime)가 $10%{\sim}40%$ 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The increase in oil prices and the rising environmental concerns are boost the electric vehicle supply. Vehicle manufactures understand this trend quite well and plan to increase the production of electric vehicle(EV) such as Nissan LEAF and GM VOLT etc.. The growth of intermittent renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power requires utilities to find additional grid coupled energy storage and regulation capacity. EVs have a battery pack and a charger. The charger can be able to deliver power back to the grid from the vehicle's battery as well as charge the battery. The concept of deploying EVs to stabilize the electric power grid is generally referred to as Vehicle-to-Grid(V2G). We present the grid service using V2G.

무선 센서 네트워크 하에서 불균일 네트워크의 에너지 효율은 주요 이슈 중의 하나로 고려된다. 불균일 네트워크에서, 개별 노드 초기 에너지의 무작위 분포는 네트워크 불안정을 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 네트워크 상 각 노드의 동작 시간 증가와 에너지 소비의 공평성 유지를 위해서는 적합한 방법이 마련되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 서로 다른 시나리오의 불균일 네트워크 하의 분산 클러스터링 프로토콜(DCP)의 성능 평가를 보여준다. 본 시뮬레이션 결과는 불균일 네트워크에서의 LEACH 프로토콜 결과와 비교하였다. 추가적으로 불균일 네트워크에서의 시스템 성능을 균일 네트워크와 비교함으로써, 불균형 초기 에너지가 시스템의 개별 노드의 수명에 미치는 영향을 설명한다. 시뮬레이션 수행 결과 균일 및 불균일 네트워크에서 LEACH 프로토콜과의 성능 비교 결과는 DCP의 성능이 모든 경우에 성능 우위에 있음을 나타내었다.

A primary task in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is data collection. The main objective of this task is to collect sensor readings from sensor fields at predetermined sinks using routing protocols without conducting network processing at intermediate nodes, which have been proved as being inefficient in many research studies using a static sink. The major drawback is that sensor nodes near a data sink are prone to dissipate more energy power than those far away due to their role as relay nodes. Recently, novel WSN architectures based on mobile sinks and mobile relay nodes, which are able to move inside the region of a deployed WSN, which has been developed in most research works related to mobile WSN mainly exploit mobility to reduce and balance energy consumption to enhance communication reliability among sensor nodes. Our main purpose in this paper is to propose a solution to the problem of deploying mobile data collectors for alleviating the high traffic load and resulting bottleneck in a sink's vicinity, which are caused by static approaches. For this reason, several WSNs based on mobile elements have been proposed. We studied two key issues in WSN mobility: the impact of the mobile element (sink or relay nodes) and the impact of the mobility model on WSN based on its performance expressed in terms of energy efficiency and reliability. We conducted an extensive set of simulation experiments. The results obtained reveal that the collection approach based on relay nodes and the mobility model based on stochastic perform better.

무선 센서 네트워크의 노드들은 제한된 배터리 에너지 자원으로 운용되고, 사용자로부터 원거리 또는 산악지대와 같이 배터리 교체가 쉽지 않은 곳에 배치되기 때문에 한정된 에너지를 효율적으로 사용하는 기술이 매우 중요하다. 이를 위해 여러 가지 프로토콜들이 연구되어 왔는데, 특히 wakeup 스케줄링 프로토콜은 가장 효과적이고 실용적인 기법으로 간주되어 왔다. Wakeup 스케줄링 프로토콜에서는 같은 지역에 대해 중복되게 센싱하고 있는 노드들이 있다면 적정한 수의 노드만 활동하게 하고 나머지는 활동하지 않게 함으로써 전체적인 네트워크의 에너지 사용 효율을 높일 수 있다. 본 논문은 무선 센서 네트워크에서 관심지역을 중복하여 센싱하는 노드의 수를 최소화하면서 응용에서 요구하는 센싱 커버리지 수준을 유지하는 wakeup 스케줄링 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 프로토콜은 이웃 노드와의 가중 평균거리를 이용하여 작동여부를 결정하게 되며 네트워크의 상황에 따라 wakeup 할 수 있는 기준치를 동적으로 변화함에 따라 요구된 센싱 커버리지를 오랫동안 유지될 수 있도록 해준다.
