무선 개인영역 네트워크는 저전력소비, 저가, 소형화 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 개인의 휴대장치와 홈 네트워크, 센서 네트워크 등으로 그 응용범위가 커지고 있다. IEEE 802.15.3 표준에서는 point to point 혹은 peer to peer의 UM(Usage Model)을 기본으로 하였지만, 가정이나 회사 내에서 데이터 통신을 요구하는 장치의 수가 증가하면서 point to multipoint의 UM이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 point to multipoint의 UM에서 표준에서는 지원되지 않는 multicast-ACK 메시지를 사용함으로써 동일한 데이터를 다수의 디바이스로 전송하는 경우에 Multicast 전송을 하여 전송률을 향상시켰다. Multicast 전송을 하게 되면 multicast-ACK의 증가로 지연시간이 증가되는 문제가 발생하여 이를 해결하기 위하여 CTA구간에서 데이터 전송이 끝나고 채널이 남는 구간에 multicast ACK를 전송하도록 하였다. 제안한 메커니즘을 수학적 분석을 통해 성능을 표준과 비교하였다.

In this paper, the affecting factors of the access demand for the cellular service are derived, and the access demand function of the cellular service is estimated. The results obtained in this study are as follows: First, the price (access charge) and the income elasticities of cellular services there exists a network externality in cellular communication services. Third, the technological capability of the service provider has played an essential role in expanding the size of subscribers. Fourth, the access demand of cellular communication service is not sensitive to the usage charge. According to the above results, it can be inferred that if the access charge is lowered, the number if subscribers will increase to the critical mass, and then the cellular communication market will grow up to a saturation point naturally.

B-ISDN is expected to be a main vehicle of future telecommunications. There has been a series fo studies on the demand and the market prospect of B-ISDN services. It is true, however, that they lacked some economic reality since the price of services has been overlooked which is a critical economic factor. In this study, we analyze some aspects of the tariff system of B-ISDN services. First, we explore and summarize the billing parameters of B-ISDN services from diverse characteristics of services and ATM network. These parameters are essential if the services are to be charged based on usage. Secondly, we discuss what factors be considered in the design fo B-ISDN services tariff systems from various points of view shch as traffic charactristics, information types and connection types, etc. The results of this study will offer fundamental insights in the design of B-ISDN service pricing scheme and provide reference for efficient services providing.

Intravenous (IV) injection is widely used to supply Ringer solution directly into a vein in hospital. Generally, a passive injection method has been used, which causes the inconsistent flow rate of fluid and inappropriate control of injection time by a patient. It leads to an unnecessary nurse's overwork and decrement of IV injection's effect. To solve these problems, flow control infusion pumps have been developed. But because of relatively heavy weight and high price, its usage has been limited. In the present study, a new automatic IV injection system is developed. It is installed with a small pressing mechanism driven by a small electric motor to regulate the flow rate by pressing tube. Proportional integral derivative (PID) feedback control algorithm is applied to control the electric motor. The system is smaller in size and uses lower power than the existing commercial product. The newly developed system is also installed with networking capability, which enables monitoring the status of several automatic IV injection system at the same time.

Wi-Fi-enabled portable devices have recently been introduced into the consumer electronics market. These devices download or upload content, from or to a host machine, such as a personal computer, a laptop, a home gateway, or a media server. This paper investigates the fairness among multiple Wi-Fi-enabled portable devices in a home network when they are simultaneously communicated with the host machine. First, we present that, a simple IEEE 802.11-based home network suffers from unfairness, and the fairness is exaggerated by the wireless link errors. This unfairness is due to the asymmetric response of the TCP to data-packet loss and to acknowledgment-packet loss, and the wireless link errors that occur in the proximity of any node; the errors affect other wireless devices through the interaction at the interface queue of the home gateway. We propose a QoS-provisioning framework in order to achieve per-device fairness and service differentiation. For this purpose, we introduce the medium access price, which denotes an aggregate value of network-wide traffic load, per-device link usage, and per-device link error rate. We implemented the proposed framework in the ns-2 simulator, and carried out a simulation study to evaluate its performance with respect to fairness, service differentiation, loss and delay. The simulation results indicate that the proposed method enforces the per-device fairness, regardless of the number of devices present and regardless of the level of wireless link errors; furthermore it achieves high link utilization with only a small amount of frame losses.

In order to apply SFCLs into electric power systems, the urgent issues to be settled are as follows, such as initial installation price, operation and maintenance cost due to ac loss of superconductor and the life of cryostat, and high voltage and high current problems. We designed novel hybrid SFCLs which combine superconductor and conventional electric equipments including a vacuum interrupter, an electro-magnetic contactor and a current limiting reactor. The main purpose of the hybrid SFCL is to drastically reduce total usage of superconductor by adopting current commutation method by use of the superconductor and the fast switch. According to protective coordination and performance, we investigated two concepts of Hybrid SFCLs. First is a half cycle fault current limitation type and second is a non-half cycle fault current limitation type. We concluded that the non-half cycle fault current limitation type is batter than the other.

In this paper, we first introduce a general architecture of an energy management system in a home area network based on a smart grid. Then, we propose an efficient scheduling method for home power usage. The home gateway (HG) receives the demand response (DR) information indicating the real-time electricity price, which is transferred to an energy management controller (EMC). Referring to the DR, the EMC achieves an optimal power scheduling scheme, which is delivered to each electric appliance by the HG. Accordingly, all appliances in the home operate automatically in the most cost-effective way possible. In our research, to avoid the high peak-to-average ratio (PAR) of power, we combine the real-time pricing model with the inclining block rate model. By adopting this combined pricing model, our proposed power scheduling method effectively reduces both the electricity cost and the PAR, ultimately strengthening the stability of the entire electricity system.

Spotlighted as an innovative information technology environment, ubiquitous computing has been actively researched on recently. Especially, domestic and global researches focus on the RFID system, which is being eyed to replace the existing bar-code system. As an essential technology for ubiquitous computing, the RFID system can be applied for various purposes. The security issues of the RFID system focus on how the low-priced tag type could have reasonable price competitiveness. The Auto-ID Center in the U.S. is spearheading the research on distribution service and omni-directional security. As for Japan, the researches on omni-directional security and EPC application are necessary in securing the technology for ubiquitous computing with support from the Ministry of Public Management Home Affairs, Posts, and Telecommunication. In this paper, a method of ensuring the availability of the RFID system service will be presented based on the ubiquitous computing environment with the existing omni-directional security and user-friendly interface. While the existing researches focus on the RF reader system and tag-based security, this paper's suggestion also considers the availability of a sen ice to suggest ways of increasing the practical usage of a low-priced RF tag.

현재 우리가 사는 21세기에서 가장 핫한 이슈중 하나는 AI이다. 농경사회에서 산업혁명을 통해 육체노동의 자동화를 이루었듯이 정보사회에서 SW혁명을 통해 지능정보사회가 도래햇다. Google '알파고'의 등장으로 인해 컴퓨터가 스스로 학습하고 예측하는 machine learning (머신러닝) 사례를 보면서 이제 바둑의 세계 까지 인간이 컴퓨터를 이길 수 없는, 다시 말하면 컴퓨터가 인간을 뛰어넘는 시대가 왔다. 기계학습ML(machine learning)은 인공 지능 분야로, 인공지능 컴퓨터가 인간을 뛰어넘는 시대가 도래했다. 기계학습ML(machine learning)은 인공지능의 분야로, 인공지능 컴퓨터가 혼자 학습 하도록 알고리즘 기술 개발을 하는 뜻을 의미하는데, 많은 기업들이 머신러닝을 바둑의 세계까지 인간이 컴퓨터를 이길 수 없는, 다시 말하면 컴퓨터가 인간을 뛰어넘는 시대가 왔다. 많은 기업들이 머신러닝을 용하는데 그 예로는 Facebook에서 이미지를 계속 학습하여 나중에 그 이미지가 누구인지 알려주는 것도 머신러닝의 한 사례이다. 또한 구글의 데이터 센터 최적화를 위해서 효율적인 에너지 사용 모델 구축을 위해 neural network(신경망)을 활용하였다. 또 다른 사례로 마이크로소프트의 실시간 통역 모델은 번역 학습을 통해 언어관련 인풋 데이터가 증가할수록 더 정교한 번역을 해주는 모델이다. 이처럼 많은 분야에 머신러닝이 점차 쓰이면서 이제 우리 21세기 사회에서 앞으로 나아가려면 AI산업으로 뛰어들어야 한다.

본 논문에서는 국내의 철도 항공 육로를 통한 물류운송산업 규제에 대해 살펴보고 여객 및 화물운송업 규제의 개선이 국민경제에 미칠 수 있는 영향을 계량화하고자 한다. 우리나라의 물류산업은 산출 및 생산규모가 점진적으로 확대되고 있으나 산업구조는 비교적 영세한 편이다. 한편 산업의 규제는 OECD 국가에 비해 높은 수준이며 국내의 여타 산업에 비해서도 그 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 경제적 규제의 수준을 비교 제시한 OECD의 국가별 네트워크산업 규제지수를 살펴보면 우리나라의 물류운송산업 규제지수는 지난 40여 년 동안 점차 감소하였으나 여전히 EU, 일본, 미국 등의 국가보다 높은 수준이며 특히 철도물류에서는 가격규제와 진입규제가 상당한 것으로 파악되었다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크산업 중 하나인 물류산업의 규제 지수가 1인당 국내총생산에 미치는 효과를 고정효과 모형을 통해 분석하였다. 실증분석 결과 교통물류부문의 규제지수가 한 단위 개선될 경우 1인당 실질 GDP를 약 8.1% 증가시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 우리나라 물류운송산업 규제가 약 10%가량 개선될 경우 1인당 국내총생산을 2.16% 상승시키는 효과가 있을 것으로 추정되었다. 특히 이러한 개선효과는 우리나라와 같은 제조업 중심의 국가에서 경제적 규제의 개선에 대해 더욱 크게 나타날 것으로 기대되며 이를 실현하기 위해서는 물류 및 운송업 부문별로 구체적이고 신중한 규제개선 노력이 요구된다.
