A holistic approach is needed in railway network modernization. What matters is that each route is developed optimally throughout its life to meet business needs - whether the answer at a given point in time is a rail repair or an redevelopment scheme. Modernization of railway network will bring railway systems up-to-date, enabling them to deliver optimal performance. As the result, the railway network modernization for revitalise the railway is based on seeking out optimum conditions for financially efficient infrastructure management, developing infrastructure fully in line with market needs and last but not least, improving railway business.

In this paper, we propose the battery life time extension method in the multi-interface terminal by using the state information in an optical wireless integrated network architecture. When the bottlenecks occurs in the network, the terminal receives data packets via multipath. However, the battery life time is rapidly reduced because the power consumption of the terminal is bigger than single interface. For reducing the power consumption in the multi-interface terminal, the Optical Line Terminal (OLT) confirms whether the bottleneck phenomenon is occurred or not. And the network state information is transmitted to the terminal. The terminal turns one of the interfaces off to reduce the power consumption. In order to estimate the performance, we compare the power consumption between single and dual interfaces.

In most machining companies, operators decide the cutting condition, a pair of spindle speed (5) and table federate (F) by experience and subjective judgment. As cutting conditions are determined by operators' experience and ability, inconsistent cutting conditions are given in same operating conditions. The objective of this study is to develop the cutting condition decision system which utilizes shop data and predicts tool life by neural network and eventually leads to the optimal cutting condition. The production time per piece is considered for an optimization object. We will discuss the process of an optimal cutting condition decision by neural network. By this process, a series of shop data is stored. And neural network is constructed for prediction of tool life and the optimal cutting condition is recommended from a cutting condition decision system using the stored shop data. The results show that the developed system is rational in searching the optimal cutting conditions on job operations.

In this paper, we propose a new routing scheme based on multi-path routing which provides uniform energy consumption for all nodes. This scheme adds a new type of root node for constructing multi-path. The sink node delegates some partial roles to these root nodes. Such root nodes carry out path establishment independently. As a result, each nodes consume energy more uniformly and the network life-time will be extended. Through simulation, we confirmed that energy consumption of the whole network is scattered and the network life-time is extended. Moreover, we show that the proposed routing scheme improves the performance of network compared to previous routing strategies as the number of source nodes increases.

The architecture of WSN based Vehicle Speed Measurement System is presented in this paper from Telematics Sensor Network(TSN) to Management System. To verify the feasibility of the system, we implemented the vehicle speed measurement system and evaluated the accuracy of velocity measured by the system in our testbed, an old highway located near Kyungbu highway. The system performed over 95% of accuracy at 80kmph from the measurement. In addition, the battery life time of the sensor node was evaluated by simulation analysis with real measured current consumption profiles. Assuming the maximum average daily traffic in 2005, the battery life time is expected to be over 1.6 year from the simulation result.

In this paper, an energy efficient clustering scheme using self organization method is proposed. The proposed scheme selects a cluster head considering not only the number of neighbor nodes but also the residual battery amount. In addition, the network life time is extended by re-selecting the cluster heads only in case the current cluster head's residual energy falls down below a certain threshold level. Accordingly, the energy consumption is evenly distributed over the entire network nodes. The cluster head delivers the collected data from member nodes to a Sink node in a way of multi-hop relaying. In order to evaluate the proposed scheme, we run computer simulation in terms of the total residual amount of battery, the number of alive nodes after a certain amount of time, the accumulated energy cost for network configuration, and the deviation of energy consumption of all nodes, comparing with LEACH which is one of the most popular network clustering schemes. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme has twice network life-time of LEACH scheme and has much more evenly distributed energy consumption over the entire network.

This paper is seeing as one big cause that reduce Life Time of sensor node become soft if BackOff Time is prolonged in CDMA/CA of competition way that consist at data transmission of each sensor nodes base sensor network environment. So solution method uses GTS, wish to reduce competition Node's, and minimise data transmission delay.

In general, structures in service gradually lose original performance according to time due to initial defects in design and construction, or exposure to unfavorable external conditions such as repeated loading or deteriorating environment, and in extreme cases, may collapse in large disaster. Therefore, in order to maintain the serviceability of structures at optimal level, advanced structure measuring system which can inform optimal time point and method of maintenance is required in addition to accurate prediction of residual life the structure by periodic inspection. To guarantee the safety level of bridge structure and to prevent from disaster, the integration of safety network for bridge structures are needed. Therefore in this study, to enhance the effectiveness of safety network for bridge, the connection methodologies between safety network and pre-installed bridge monitoring system are investigated.

This paper estimates the reliability & mean time to failure (MTIF) of a cyclic or acyclic network system by the Monte-Carlo simulation method. Estimates of MTTF and Reliability become difficult as the complexity of a system increases. The method in this paper finds all simple paths from the given network, and then simulates the reliability of the required time and MTFF by using these paths. Life-times of the components in a network follow some probability distributions (Exponential, Weibull, Normal, Lognormal, etc.). The method, written in Level II. Basic Language, is validated for some simple examples and then estimates the reliability and MTFF of some cyclic network system.

Since Time synchronization is also critical in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) like other networks, a time synchronization protocol for WSN called IBS(Indirect-Broadcast Synchronization) has been already proposed in 2012. As IBS operates in cluster tree topology, network lifetime may be mainly shortened by cluster head node[s], which usually consumes more power than cluster member (i.e. non-cluster head) nodes. In this paper, I propose enhanced version of IBS (called EIBS) which saves overall energy and prolongs network lifetime by re-constructing partial cluster tree locally. Compared with other tree construction approaches, this tree reconstruction algorithm is not only simpler, but also more efficient in the light of overall power consumption and network lifetime.
