  • In this paper, we regard computer systems as heterogeneous multi-server systems and propose a cumulative fair scheduling scheme that pursues long-term fairness. GPS(generalized processor sharing)-based scheduling algorithms, which are usually employed in single-server systems, distribute available capacity in an instantaneous manner. However, applying them to heterogeneous multi-server systems may cause unfairness, since they may not prevent the accumulation of scheduling delays and the extra capacities are distributed in an instantaneous manner. In our scheme, long-term fairness is pursued by proper distribution of extra capacities while guaranteeing reserved capacities. A reference capacity model to determine the ideal progresses of applications is derived from long-term observations, and the scheduler makes the applications gradually follow the ideal progresses while guaranteeing their reserved capacities. A heuristic scheduling algorithm is proposed and the scheme is examined by simulation.

  • Ontology alignment is the way to share and reuse of ontology knowledge. Because of the ambiguity of concept, most ontology alignment systems combine a set of various measures and complete enumeration to provide the satisfactory result. However, calculating process becomes more complex and required time increases exponentially since the number of concept increases, more errors can appear at the same time. Lately the focus is on meta-matching using the heuristic algorithm. Existing meta-matching system tune extra parameter and it causes complex calculating, as a consequence, the results in the various data of specific domain are not good performed. In this paper, we propose a high performance algorithm by using DCS that can solve ontology alignment through simple process. It provides an efficient search strategy according to distribution of Levy Flight. In order to evaluate the approach, benchmark data from the OAEI 2012 is employed. Through the comparison of the quality of the alignments which uses DCS with state of the art ontology matching systems.

  • Similarity matching in video database is of growing importance in many new applications such as video clustering and digital video libraries. In order to provide efficient access to relevant data in large databases, there have been many research efforts in video indexing with diverse spatial and temporal features. however, most of the previous works relied on sequential matching methods or memory-based inverted file techniques, thus making them unsuitable for a large volume of video databases. In order to resolve this problem, this paper proposes an effective and scalable indexing technique using a trie, originally proposed for string matching, as an index structure. For building an index, we convert each frame into a symbol sequence using a window order heuristic and build a disk-resident trie from a set of symbol sequences. For query processing, we perform a depth-first search on the trie and execute a temporal segmentation. To verify the superiority of our approach, we perform several experiments with real and synthetic data sets. The results reveal that our approach consistently outperforms the sequential scan method, and the performance gain is maintained even with a large volume of video databases.

  • In the Seoul metropolitan bus network, it may be necessary for a bus passenger to pick up a parcel, which has been purchased through e-commerce, at his or her convenient bus stop on the way to home or office. The flow-capturing location-allocation model can be applied to select pickup points for such bus stops so that they maximize the captured passenger flows, where each passenger flow represents an origin-destination (O-D) pair of a passenger trip. In this paper, we propose a fast heuristic algorithm to select pickup points using a large O-D matrix, which has been extracted from five million transportation card transactions. The experimental results demonstrate the bus stops chosen as pickup points in terms of passenger flow and capture ratio, and illustrate the spatial distribution of the top 20 pickup points on a map.

  • The cache structure, which is designed for assuring fast accesses to frequently accessed data, resides on the various levels of computer system hierarchies. Many studies on this cache structure have been conducted and thus many page-replacement algorithms have been proposed. Most of page-replacement algorithms are designed on the basis of heuristic methods by using their own criteria such as how recently pages are accessed and how often they are accessed. This data-retrieval process in computer systems is analogous to human memory retrieval process since the retrieval process of human memory depends on frequency and recency of the retrieval events as well. A recent study regarding human memory cognition revealed that the possibility of the retrieval success and the retrieval latency have a strong correlation with the frequency and recency of the previous retrieval events. In this paper, we propose a novel page-replacement algorithm by utilizing the knowledge from the recent research regarding human memory cognition. Through a set of experiments, we demonstrated that our new method presents better hit-ratio than the LRFU algorithm which has been known as the best performing page-replacement algorithm for DBMS caches.

  • In the present paper routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) in optical WDM networks is considered. Previous techniques based on the combination of integer linear programming and graph coloring are complex and require extensive use of heuristics. Such methods are mostly slow and sometimes impossible to get results due to infeasibility. An alternative approach applied to RWA employs on the greedy algorithm for obtaining the maximum edge disjoint paths. Even though this approach is fast, it produces a solution for any connection request, which is very far from the optimal utilization of wavelengths. We propose a novel algorithm, which is based on the maximum flow technique to obtain the maximum quantity of edge, disjoint paths. Here we compare the offered method with previous maximum edge disjoint paths algorithms ap plied to the RWA.

  • The Non-Sampling Error can happen any time by means of the intended or unintended error by the interviewer or respondent, but it is very difficult to find the error in survey database because it can hardly be computed mathematically and systematically. Until now, we have found it accidentally through the simple relation between the items or through the inspection from the random field. Therefore we introduced an heuristic methodology that can detect the interviewer's error by statistical decision-making or data mining techniques with a case study. It will be helpful so as to improve the statistical duality and provide efficient field management for the supervisor.

  • In this paper, we propose the regions segmentation method of the white matter and the gray matter for brain MR image by using the ant colony optimization algorithm. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a new meta heuristics algorithm to solve hard combinatorial optimization problem. This algorithm finds the expected pixel for image as the real ant finds the food from nest to food source. Then ants deposit pheromone on the pixels, and the pheromone will affect the motion of next ants. At each iteration step, ants will change their positions in the image according to the transition rule. Finally, we can obtain the segmentation results through analyzing the pheromone distribution in the image. We compared the proposed method with other threshold methods, viz. the Otsu' method, the genetic algorithm, the fuzzy method, and the original ant colony optimization algorithm. From comparison results, the proposed method is more exact than other threshold methods for the segmentation of specific region structures in MR brain image.

  • Dijkstra's algorithm is one of well-known methods to find shortest paths over a network. However, more research on $A^*$ algorithm is necessary to discover the shortest route to a goal point with the heuristic information rather than Dijkstra's algorithm which aims to find a path considering only the shortest distance to any point for an optimal path search. Therefore, in this paper, we compared Dijkstra's algorithm and $A^*$ algorithm for bicycle route selection. For this purpose, the horizontal distance according to slope angle and average speed were calculated based on factors which influence bicycle route selection. And bicycle routes were selected considering the shortest distance or time-dependent shortest path using Dijkstra's or $A^*$ algorithm. The result indicated that the $A^*$ algorithm performs faster than Dijkstra's algorithm on processing time in large study areas. For the future, optimal path selection algorithm can be used for bicycle route plan or a real-time mobile services.

  • Extreme programming is the most representative methodology among agile software development methodologies that is agile in business environment which change fast. As software industry is matured, usability of software quality characteristics is emphasized gradually, but effort to obtain usability in extreme programming is insufficient. In this paper, three things lacked in extreme programming are reinforced. First, roles of user interface expert are defined. Second, usability testing method to extreme programming are introduced. Third, development process and products are proposed. The proposed plan is validated by four methods, which analyze supporting software development life cycle, analyze satisfaction of CMM key process areas, analyze satisfaction of CMM practices, and analyze development of green tea shopping mail. Green tea shopping mall is improved 23% in the estimated running time, 21% in the learnability. Also, usability is improved 18% in the heuristic evaluation and 16% in the questionnaire method.
