This paper deals with Linear Programming by Signal Flow Graph technique which is different from that of Mason and Coates. The objective function is regarded as variable, and slack variable node, artificial variable node and objective function variable (constant) node are newly defined, which shows the process for optimization of solution very intuitively. Also methods for solving L.P. and examples with subject to Ax.leq.b, Ax=b and Ax.geq.b are presented.

An optimally labelled graph of bandwidth 2 is an ordered pair (G, f) where G is a simple graph with bw(G) = 2 and $f:V(G){\rightarrow}[n]$ is a bijection such that bw(G, f) = 2. In this paper, the number of optimally labelled graphs of bandwidth two of order n is enumerated by counting linear forests.

We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for a heptagonal knot to be figure-8 knot. The condition is described by a set of Radon partitions formed by vertices of the heptagon. In addition we relate this result to the number of nontrivial heptagonal knots in linear embeddings of the complete graph $K_7$ into $\mathbb{R}^3$.

We consider a discrete event dynamic system called periodic job shop, where an identical mixture of items called minimal part set(MPS) is repetitively produced in the same processing order and the primary performance measure is the cycle time. The precedence relationships among events(starts of operations) are represented by a directed graph with rocurront otructure. When each operation starts as soon as all its preceding operations complete(called earliest starting), the occurrences of events are modeled in a linear system using a special algebra called minimax algebra. By investigating the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors, we develop conditions on the directed graph for which a stable steady state or a finite eigenvector exists. We demonstrate that each finite eigenvector, characterized as a finite linear combination of a class of eigenvalue, is the minimum among all the feasible schedules and an identical schedule pattern repeats every MPS. We develop an efficient algorithm to find a schedule among such schedules that minimizes a secondary performance measure related to work-in-process inventory. As a by-product of the linear system approach, we also propose a way of characterizing stable steady states of a class of discrete event dynamic systems.

The scheduling of parallel computing systems consists of two procedures, the assignment of tasks to each available processor and the ordering of tasks in each processor. The assignment procedure is same with a clustering. The clustering is classified into linear or nonlinear according to the precedence relationship of the tasks in each cluster. The parallel computing system can be modeled with a Directed Acyclic Graph(DAG). By the granularity theory, DAG is categorized into Coarse Grain Type(CDAG) and Fine Grain Type(FDAG). We suggest the linear clustering method for the scheduling of CDAG using the genetic algorithm. The method utilizes a properly that the optimal schedule of a CDAG is one of linear clustering. We present the computational comparisons between the suggested method for CDAG and an existing method for the general DAG including CDAG and FDAG.

There are many methods to calculate steady-state flowrate in a large water distribution system. Linear method which analyzes continuity equations and energy equations simultaneously is most widely used. Though it is theoretically simple, when it is applied to a practical water distribution system, it produces a very sparse coefficient matrix and most of its diagonal elements are to be zero. This sparsity characteristic of coefficient matrix makes it difficult to analyze pipe flow using the linear method. In this study, a graph theory is introduced to water distribution system analysis in order to prevent from producing ill-conditioned coefficient matrix and the technique is developed to produce positive-definite matrix. To test applicability of developed method, this method is applied to 22 pipes and 142 pipes system located nearby Taegu city. The results obtained from these applications show that the method can calculate flowrate effectively without failure in converage. Thus it is expected that the method can analyze steady state flowrate and pressure in pipe network systems efficiently. Keywords : pipe flow analysis, graph theory, linear method.

One of the most important methods used in the modern analysis of linear networks and systems is the signal flow graph technique, first introduced by S.J. Mason in 1953. In essence, the signal-flow graph technique is a graphical method of solving a set of simultaneous. It can, therefore, be regarded as an alternative to the substitution method or the conventional matrix method. Since a flow-graph is the pictorial representation of a set of equations, it has an obvious advantage, i.e., it describes the flow of signals from one point of a system to another. Thus it provides cause-and-effect relationship between signals. And it often significantly reduces the work involved, and also yields an easy, systematic manipulation of variables of interest. Mason's formula is very powerful, but it is applicable only when the desired quantity is the transmission gain between the source node and sink node. In this paper, author summarizes the signal-flow graph technique, and stipulates three rules for conversion of an arbitrary nonsource node into a source node. Then heuses the conversion rules to obtain various quantities, i.e., networks gains, functions and parameters, through simple graphical manipulations.

The rank over a finite field of the adjacency matrix of a directed strongly regular graph is studied, with some applications to the construction of linear codes. Three techniques are used: code orthogonality, adjacency matrix determinant, and adjacency matrix spectrum.

This paper proposes a face recognition technique that effectively combines elastic graph matching (EGM) and Fisherface algorithm. EGM as one of dynamic lint architecture uses not only face-shape but also the gray information of image, and Fisherface algorithm as a class specific method is robust about variations such as lighting direction and facial expression. In the proposed face recognition adopting the above two methods, the linear projection per node of an image graph reduces dimensionality of labeled graph vector and provides a feature space to be used effectively for the classification. In comparison with a conventional method, the proposed approach could obtain satisfactory results in the perspectives of recognition rates and speeds. Especially, we could get maximum recognition rate of 99.3% by leaving-one-out method for the experiments with the Yale Face Databases.

Let G be a planar graph with maximum degree $\Delta$. The linear 2-arboricity $la_2$(G) of G is the least integer k such that G can be partitioned into k edge-disjoint forests, whose component trees are paths of length at most 2. In this paper, we prove that (1) $la_2(G){\leq}{\lceil}\frac{\Delta}{2}\rceil+8$ if G has no adjacent 3-cycles; (2) $la_2(G){\leq}{\lceil}\frac{\Delta}{2}\rceil+10$ if G has no adjacent 4-cycles; (3) $la_2(G){\leq}{\lceil}\frac{\Delta}{2}\rceil+6$ if any 3-cycle is not adjacent to a 4-cycle of G.
