This paper proposes an ant-based routing algorithm, Ant System-Routing in wireless Senor Networks(AS-RSN), for wireless sensor networks. Using a transition rule in Ant System, sensors can spread data traffic over the whole network to achieve energy balance, and consequently, maximize the lifetime of sensor networks. The transition rule advances one of the original Ant System by re-defining link cost which is a metric devised to consider energy-sufficiency as well as energy-efficiency. This metric gives rise to the design of the AS-RSN algorithm devised to balance the data traffic of sensor networks in a decentralized manner and consequently prolong the lifetime of the networks. Therefore, AS-RSN is scalable in the number of sensors and also robust to the variations in the dynamics of event generation. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by comparing three existing routing algorithms: Direct Communication Approach, Minimum Transmission Energy, and Self-Organized Routing and find that energy balance should be considered to extend lifetime of sensor network and increase robustness of sensor network for diverse event generation patterns.

This study presents a plant concept design for a smart factory which is mainly targeted to machine airplane parts. The plant layout is based on the TOC-DBR approach together with autonomous distributed factory control considered, while discrete event simulation is also performed in order to validate its layout. The resulting layout and its procedure turn out to be quite a useful guideline in realizing those smart factories especially for machining-oriented manufacturing industries.

A mobile terminal will expect a number of handoffs within its call duration. In the event of a mobile call, when a mobile node moves from one cell to another, it should connect to another access point within its range. In case there is a lack of support of its own network, it must changeover to another base station. In the event of moving on to another network, quality of service parameters need to be considered. In our study we have used the Markov decision process approach for a seamless handoff as it gives the optimum results for selecting a network when compared to other multiple attribute decision making processes. We have used the network cost function for selecting the network for handoff and the connection reward function, which is based on the values of the quality of service parameters. We have also examined the constant bit rate and transmission control protocol packet delivery ratio. We used the policy iteration algorithm for determining the optimal policy. Our enhanced handoff algorithm outperforms other previous multiple attribute decision making methods.

This paper highlights the comparison of a proposed methods named adaptive undervoltage load shedding based PTSI techniques for undervoltage load shedding and two previous methods named Fixed Shed Fixed Delay (FSFD) and Variable Shed Variable Delay (VSVD) for avoiding voltage collapse. There are three main area considerations in load shedding schemes as the amount of load to be shed, the timing of load shedding event, and the location where load shed is to be shed. The proposed method, named as adaptive UVLS based PTSI seem to be most appropriate among the uncoordinated schemes. From the simulation result can be shown the Adaptive UVLS based PTSI give faster response, accurate and very sensitive control for the UVLS control technique. This technique is effectively when calculating the amount to be shed. Therefore, it is possible to bring the voltage to the threshold value in one step. Thus, the adaptive load shedding can effectively reduce the computational time for control strategy.

A major objective of the study is to propose a supervisory control algorithm based on the discrete event dynamic system (DEDS) model and apply it to the automation of nuclear operations. The study is motivated by the suitability of the DEDS model for simulation of man-made control action and the potential of the DEDS based supervisory control algorithm for enhanced licensibility, when implemented in nuclear plants, through design transparency due to strong analytic backgrounds. The DEDS model can analytically show the robust stability of the proposed supervisory controller providing design transpareney for enhanced licensibility when implemented in nuclear operations.

Recently, due to the advance of computer, network and Internet technology, control/monitoring systems are required to process the massive data, At the same time, the software development environment uses more and more component-based methodology. This paper proposes the services for the control /monitoring domain. Especially we define domain-specific interfaces and categories to acquire compatibility between products, and implement architecture for lightweight event service. As it is very important to support compatibility between heterogeneous systems, the proposed system provides modules for the web service and communication protocols based on the XML. And as proposed architecture consists of cluster of servers and Windows 2000's NLB service, it can guarantee more stable operation,

IEEE1394는 디지털 캠코더, 디지털 TV, 퍼스널 컴퓨터를 포함한 가정내의 디지털 네트웍을 구성하기 위한 대표적인 인터페이스이다. 최근 IEEE1394는 기존의 멀티미디어 데이터를 지원하는 장비의 인터페이스에서 벗어나 실시간성이 요구되는 제어 시스템에 적용이 되고 있으며 더불어 IICP(Instrument and Industrial Control Protocol)의 제정등 응용분야가 점차 확대되고 있다. 또한 홈 네트웍에서 제어 네트웍과 데이터 네트웍의 연동을 위해 기반 망으로 사용됨으로써 제어 네트웍에서 요구되는 실시간성의 보장이 IEEE1394에서도 요구되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 홈 네트윅에서 IEEE1374의 실시간성 보장을 위해 이벤트 채널 모델을 사용한 서비스의 우선순위에 따른 처리기법과 1394 디바이스 드라이버 레벨에서의 우선순위 보장을 위한 구조를 제안한다. 서비스의 우선순위에 따른 실시간성 보장기법은 서비스 이벤트의 우선순위에 따라 이벤트 채널을 통해 높은 우선순위 서비스의 예측가능성을 보장하며, 디바이스 드라이버 레벨에서는 우선순위 큐를 이용한 패킷의 전송과 등시성 전송을 위한 효율적인 버퍼관리 기법을 제공한다. 이러한 구조는 향후 IEEE1374기반의 홈 네트웍 미들웨어 뿐만이 아니라 실시간 응용이 요구되는 다양한 어플리케이션과 서비스 등에 사용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

When an event is occurred in a nuclear power plant (NPP), the NPP operator reports it referred by the regulation on reporting and public announcement of accidents and incidents. Some of the events do not need to be reported because they are not included in the reporting criteria of the regulation. However, it is necessary that they should be managed effectively because the accident can be occurred by the recurrence of a lot of them as precursors. Among the events not included in the reporting criteria of the regulation, near miss is the event that is not occurred but can generate a significant consequence. This can provide the cause of the event which does not result an accident. So, it is able to offer insightful knowledges to prevent higher level events about the function and process of NPP. The objective of this study is to analyze the issues of near miss events, prepare the defence against the risk, and improve the management process of NPP. To achieve it, this study performed to analyze the management structure and status of near miss events as well as the accident reporting system of the domestic and foreign regulation bodies. In case of Korea, the status was analyzed by quantitative data, licensee event reports and procedures. Based on these, we could find the causes that near miss events were not managed effectively. Then, systematic alternatives that reflected the perspective of man, technology and organization were drawn.

New and handoff calls control mechanisms are the key point to wireless cellular networks. In this paper, we present an adaptive algorithm for dynamic channel allocation scheme with guard channels and also with handoff calls waiting queue ensuring that handoff calls take priority over new calls. Our goal is to find better tradeoff between handoffs and new calls blocking probabilities in order to achieve more efficient channel utilization. Simpy is a Python based discrete event simulation system. We use Simpy to build our simulation models to get analytical data.

About 75% of vessel collision accidents are caused by human error, which causes enormous economic loss, environmental pollution, and human casualties, thus research on automatic collision avoidance of vessels is being actively conducted. In addition, vessels must comply with the COLREGs rules stipulated by IMO when performing collision avoidance with other vessels in motion. In this study, the collision risk was calculated by estimating the position and velocity of other vessels through the Probabilistic Data Association Filter (PDAF) algorithm based on RADAR sensor data. When a collision risk is detected, we propose an event-triggered Nonlinear Model Predict Control (NMPC) algorithm that geometrically creates waypoints that satisfy COLREGs and follows them. To verify the proposed algorithm, simulations through MATLAB are performed.
