A two-way relay network provide improved spectral efficiency compared with a conventional one-way relay network by using either superposition coding or network coding. OFDMA network provides imptoved performance by adaptive resource allocation. In this paper, we propose a adaptive subcarrier allocation for a multiuser two-way OFDMA relay network. In the proposed algorithm, subcarriers are allocated to the user-pairs and relays to maximize the achievable sum-rate over all user-pairs while satisfying the minimum rate requirement for each user-pair. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm provides improved performance compared with the static and greedy algorithms.

전장에서 임무 수행중인 병력이나 탱크 등을 지원하거나 보호 동물의 활동을 모니터링 하는 센서 네트워크에서는 전송 정보뿐만 아니라 그러한 대상들의 위치를 악의적 추적자로부터 보호할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 활동 소오스 노드처럼 메시지 전송은 진행하고 있지 않지만 위치가 보호되어야 할 대상과 근접한 휴면(dormant) 소오스 노드들을 고려한 소오스 위치 보호 라우팅 기법 GSLP(GPSR-based Source-Location Privacy)를 제안한다. GSLP는 알고리즘의 간결성과 신장성(scalability)이 뛰어난 GPSR(greedy perimeter stateless routing)을 확장하여 메시지 전달 노드를 선정할 때 일정 확률로 임의의 이웃 노드를 선택하는 한편, perimeter 라우팅을 적용하여 소오스 노드들을 우회하도록 하여 위치를 보호하도록 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 기존의 대표적인 소오스 위치 보호 라우팅 프로토콜인 PR-SP(Phantom Routing-Single Path)에 비해 GSLP는 휴면 소오스 노드들의 수에 거의 관계없이 높은 안전 기간(전송 메시지 수)을 일정하게 제공하면서도 전달 지연(경로의 평균 홉(hop) 수)은 도착지와의 최단 홉 수의 약 두 배 이내에 머물러 대규모 센서 네트워크에서의 소오스의 위치를 보호하기 위한 방안으로 적합한 것으로 평가되었다.

Combining recent advances in causal flows with time series analysis, relationships among eight North American natural gas spot market prices are examined. Results indicate that price discovery tends to occur in excess demand regions and move to excess supply regions. Across North America, the U.S. Midwest region represented by Chicago spot market is the most important market for price discovery. The Ellisburg-Leidy Hub in Pennsylvania is important in price discovery, especially for markets in the eastern two-thirds of the U.S. Malin Hub in Oregon is important for the western markets including the AECO Hub in Alberta, Canada.

One of the important fields for heuristics algorithm is how to balance between Intensificationand Diversification. Ant Colony System(ACS) is a new meta heuristics algorithm to solve hard combinatorial optimization problem. It is a population based approach that uses exploitation of positive feedback as well as greedy search. It was first proposed for tackling the well known Traveling Salesman Problem(TSP). In this paper, we propose Multi Colony Interaction Ant Model that achieves positive negative interaction through elite strategy divided by intensification strategy and diversification strategy to improve the performance of original ACS. And, we apply multi colony interaction ant model by this proposed elite strategy to TSP and compares with original ACS method for the performance.

In this paper, we propose a new method to improve the performance of supervector linear kernel SVM (Support Vector Machine) for speaker identification. This method is based on splitting one training datum into several pieces of utterances. We use four different databases for evaluating performance and use PCA (Principal Component Analysis), GKPCA (Greedy Kernel PCA) and KMDA (Kernel Multimodal Discriminant Analysis) for feature enhancement. As a result, the proposed method shows improved performance for speaker identification using supervector linear kernel SVM.

Maximal Covering 문제(MCP)란 행렬 상에서 n개의 열(column) 중 p개를 선택하여 m개의 행(row)중 최대한 많은 행을 cover하는 문제로 정의된다. 본 논문에서는 MCP를 유전 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)으로 해결하기 위해 문제에 적합하게 설계된 교차 연산자(crossover operator)와 비발현 유전인잔(unexpressed gene)를 가진 새로운 염색체 구조를 제시한다. 해결하고자 하는 대상 MCP의 규모가 매우 큰 경우 전통적인 임의교차(random crossover) 방법으로는 좋은 결과를 얻기가 힘들다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 그리디 교차(greedy crossover) 방법을 제시하여 문제를 해결한다. 그러나 이러한 그리디 교차를 사용하더라도 조기 수렴 등의 문제로 인해 타부 탐색 등의 이웃해 탐색 방법에 비해 그리 좋은 결과를 얻기가 힘들다. 본 논문은 이러한 조기 수렴 문제를 해결하고 다른 이웃에 탐색 방법보다 더 좋은 결과를 얻기 위해 비발현 유전인자(unexpressed gene)를 가진 염색체를 도입하여 해결함을 특징으로 한다. 비발현 유전인자는 교차 과정에서 자식 염색체의 유전인자로 전달되지 않은 정보 중 나중에라도 유용할 가능성이 보이는 정보를 보존하는 역할을 하여 조기 수렴 문제를 해결하는데 도움을 주어 보다 나은 결과를 얻을 수 있게 해준다. 대규모 MCP를 해결하는 실험에서 새로운 비발현 유전인자를 적용한 유전 알고리즘이 기존의 유전 알고리즘뿐만 아니라 다른 탐색 기법에 비해 더욱 좋은 성능을 보여줌을 확인하였다.

A triple database consisting of a number of three-column tables require high cost of query processing, whereby building a shortcut is known as an effective way to reduce the cost. It is important to figure out what shortcuts needs to be selectively built. Most shortcut selection algorithms make use of a benefit model that considers the query frequency. However they work poor to reflect the database update. In this paper, we consider a benefit model for triple databases. The model considers not only the profit of query response times but also the building and maintenance costs of the shortcuts. We apply the model to design a benefit function which can be plugged in a greedy-based shortcut selection algorithm. We perform the empirical experiments on a real-world dataset and analyze the effect of each factor employed in the benefit function.

Sensor networks deployed in battlefields to support military operations or deployed in natural habitats to monitor the rare wildlifes must take account of protection of the location of valuable assets(i.e., soldiers or wildlifes) from an adversary or malicious tracing as well as the security of messages in transit. In this paper we propose a routing protocol GSLP(GPSR-based Source-Location Privacy) that is capable of enhancing the location privacy of an active source node(i.e., message-originating node) in the presence of multiple dormant sources(i.e., nodes lying nearby an asset whose location needs to be secured). Extended is a simple, yet scalable, routing scheme GPSR(greedy perimeter stateless routing) to select randomly a next-hop node with a certain probability for randomizing paths and to perform perimeter routing for detouring dormant sources so that the privacy strength of the active source, defined as safety period, keeps enhanced. The simulation results obtained by increasing the number of dormant sources up to 1.0% of the total number of nodes show that GSLP yields increased and nearly invariant safety periods, while those of PR-SP(Phantom Routing, Single Path), a notable existing protocol for source-location privacy, rapidly drop off as the number of dormant sources increases. It turns out that delivery latencies of GSLP are roughly less than two-fold of the shortest path length between the active source and the destination.

This paper propose an efficient algorithm for selecting electric bus charging facility location. In nature, the optimal charging facility location problem is similar to Set Covering Problem. Set Covering Problem is the problem of covering all the rows of an $m{\times}n$ matrix of ones and zeros by a subset of columns with a minimal cost. It has many practical applications of modeling of real world problems. The Set Covering Problem has been proven to be NP-Complete. In order to overcome the computational complexity involved in seeking optimal solutions, this paper present an enhanced greedy algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm. In this paper, we apply the developed algorithm to Seoul's public bus system.

Reducing power consumption to extend network lifetime is one of the most important challenges in designing wireless sensor networks. One promising approach to conserving system energy is to keep only a minimal number of sensors active and put others into low-powered sleep mode, while the active sensors can maintain a connected covet set for the target area. The problem of computing such minimum working sensor set is NP-hard. In this paper, a centralized Voronoi tessellation (CVT) based approximate algorithm is proposed to construct the near optimal cover set. When sensor's communication radius is at least twice of its sensing radius, the covet set is connected at the same time; In case of sensor's communication radius is smaller than twice of its sensing radius, a connection scheme is proposed to calculate the assistant nodes needed for constructing the connectivity of the cover set. Finally, the performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated through theoretical analysis and extensive numerical experiments. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the greedy algorithm in terms of the runtime and the size of the constructed connected cover set.
