Most networks for automation are tuned to an expected traffic at their design stage. During their actual operations, however, the networks experience considerable changes in traffic from time to time. These traffic changes caused by common events like machine failure and production schedule change may adversely affect the network performance and, in turn, the performance of the connected devices. This paper presents communication delay model for Profibus token passing protocol, and introduces TTR selection methods to maintain a uniform level of network performance at all stations under changing network traffic.

This study to find out key ingredients(KIs) of Six Sigma. Potential ingredients are selected from previous studies of success factors and ingredients of Six Sigma and TQM, and criteria of quality awards like MBNQA, EFQM, Deming and Korean National Quality Award(KNQA) are classified into 11 categories based on experts' opinion and affinity analysis. Irrelevant or ineffective potential ingredients are discarded by using factor analysis for the questionnaires answered by champions, MBBs and BBs of 90 Korean companies that have more than 3 years of experience in implementing Six Sigma. In addition, from the factor analysis, 3 factors are derived for each respectively except the managerial achievement category. Those 11 categories and 30 factors are defined as Six Sigma KIs.

KEPCO signed up with LS CABLE as a contractor for HVDC submarine cable construction in February 2009. The desk research has been completed in may 2009. Also, Cable route and the protection method will be selected by November 2009. The tentative cable route between Jindo and Jeju which is consisted of sea farms and shipping route zone will reach almost 105km. The oceanographic survey for the selection of protection method will be carried out and the survey lists are consisted of MBES, SSS, CPT, ADSP. The protection methods such as burial, Concrete Mattress, UP Pipe, Rock Berm will be selected as per each condition of sea area after the oceanographic survey is completed. Kepco has developed variable methods based on the maintenance experience for HVDC submarine cable between HAENAM and JEJU. Based on the such a accumulated know-how, it can be expected for the confidence and stability of the 2nd HVC project to be improved.

The automation of hot rolling process requires the developments of several mathematical models for simulation and quantitative description of the industrial operations involved in order to achieve the continuously increasing productivity, flexibility and quality(dimensional accuracy, mechanical properties and surface properties). The mathematical modeling of hot rolling process has long been recognized to be a desirable approach to investigate rolling operating practice and design of mill requirement. To achieve this objectives, a new teaming method with neural network to improve the accuracy of rolling force prediction in hot rolling mill is developed. Also, Genetic Algorithm(GA) is applied to select the optimal structure of the neural network and compared with that of engineers experience. It is shown from this research that both structure selection methods can lead to similar results.

Rebuilding an existing paper machine is often a very profitable way for papermakers to increase the cash flow created by an older paper machine. In Metso Paper we have placed particular emphasis in recent years on developing concepts and products specifically for rebuild needs. The outcome of this work can now be seen as a wide selection of products offering quite possibly the best coverage of all time of specific improvement targets. Different needs can be addressed through truly different solutions. Selecting the best-fit alternatives will offer great upgrade options for all paper machines and paper grades. Metso Paper's long experience with high-speed paper machines has been put to good use to create more cost-effective small and mid-sized solutions with the reliability and quality of bigger and faster paper machines. This paper has discussed some of the most interesting and latest configurations available today for paper machine rebuilds.

Vibration isolators and anti-vibration mounts are ideal, for example, in creating floating floors for gymnasiums, or performance spaces. However, it is well-known that there are great difficulties on isolating vibration transmission in structural steel components, especially steel floors. Besides, the selection of inertia blocks, which are usually used by engineers as an effective vibration control measure, is usually based on crude methods or the experience of the engineers. Thus, no simple method or indices have been available for assessing the effect of inertia blocks on vibration isolation or stability of vibratory systems. Thus, the aims of this research are to provide further background description using a FE model and present and implement a modal approach, that was validated experimentally, the latter assisting in providing improved understanding of the vibration transmission phenomenon in steel buildings excited by a velocity-source type of excitation. A better visualization of the mean-square velocity distribution in the frequency domain is presented using the concept of modal expansion. Finally, the variation of the mean-square velocity with frequency, whilst varying mass and/or stiffness of the coupled system, is presented.

Developing tailor made Multimedia courseware ensuring effective implementation of instruction strategies is a challenge that manifests in myriad problems of software design and coding. In this paper an attempt has been made to analyse and identify coding and implementation problems, in the backdrop of using two different multimedia software development tools i.e. Visual Basic and Toolbook, which underpin the development and effectiveness of use of multimedia courseware. Solutions to such problems have been discussed in context of Tool book. The examples presented in this paper are based on the experience of designing and implementation of two large scale professional quality Multimedia courseware development projects.

As the information from today's knowledge-based society alters the awareness of patients and provides a wider selection of medical institutions, the reality of medical institution management is struggling compared to the past. CRM was introduced to domestic hospitals as marketing strategy to dominate the competition under varying medical environment. Thus, this research invests on CRM activity types used in hospitals and the effects of CRM activities toward loyalty and switching intention. Futhermore, we investigate the mediating role of customer relationship commitment and termination in CRM activities. The subjects in this study included three hundred customers who are using hospital settings or who had experience with using the hospital settings. The researcher collected 262 survey questionnaires from May 23th, 2011 to June first. In order to evaluate the hypothesis in this study, structural equation model was analyzed by using AMOS 18.0.

Present CAM technology cannot provide important physical property such as cutting farce and machined surface. Thus, the selection of cutting conditions still depends on the experience of an expert or on the machining data handbook in spite of the developed CAM technology. This paper presents an advanced methodology to help the worker to determine optimum cutting condition for CHC machining that excludes the need for expertise of machining data handbook. The virtual machining system presented in this paper can simulate the real machining states such as cutting farce and machined surface error. And virtual machining system can schedule feed rate to adjust the cutting force to the reference force.
