Supporting quality of service (QoS) guarantees for diverse multimedia services are the primary concerns for WiMAX (IEEE 802.16) networks. A scheduling scheme that satisfies QoS requirements has become more important for wireless communications. We propose a downlink scheduling scheme called adaptive priority-based downlink scheduling (APDS) for providing QoS guarantees in IEEE 802.16 networks. APDS comprises two major components: Priority assignment and resource allocation. Different service-type connections primarily depend on their QoS requirements to adjust priority assignments and dispatch bandwidth resources dynamically. We consider both starvation avoidance and resource management. Simulation results show that our APDS methodology outperforms the representative scheduling approaches in QoS satisfaction and maintains fairness in starvation prevention.

This paper is concerned with scheduling in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) using a Fuzzy Logic (FL) approach. Four fuzzy input variables: machine allocated processing time, machine priority, machine available time and transportation priority are defined. The job priority is the output fuzzy variable, showing the priority status of a job to be selected for the next operation on a machine. The model will first select the machines and then assign operations based on a multi-criteria scheduling scheme. System/machine utilization, minimizing mean flow time and balancing machine usage will be covered. Experimental and comparative tests indicate the superiority of this fuzzy based scheduling model over the existing approaches.

The governments investment in R&D has rapidly increased so that a comprehensive and coherent approach to resource allocation has necessitated. Therefore the need for priorities in science and technology has been increased according to growing resources to science and technology. This study presents the methodology, process and results of priority-setting of national strategic technologies(IT, BT, NT, ST, ET, CT) through which 77 national key technologies are selected based on the criteria. Specifically it is intended to identify strategically necessary areas of focus for R&D, help leverage limited resources most effectively, and help coordinate government R&D activities by supplying ministries with a common set of priorities.

Background: The purpose of this study was to suggest agenda priorities for research and development with physical therapy technology. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: A survey was consecutively done to 62 experts working in physical therapy research areas to investigate the priority of the categories. Paired T-tests and Importance-Performance Analysis using SPSS 21.0 package were conducted to find the differences between importance and satisfaction of the categories and the order of priority. Results: In results, it was developed that the research and development with physical therapy technology were divided with 18 categories. And the importance were significantly higher than satisfaction in 18 categories. Specifically, categories about assistive technology and robot rehabilitation were found to be on the high importance and lower performance quadrant. Conclusion: In sum, this study was meaningful in finding usage categories of research and development with physical therapy technology and investigating Importance-Performance differences for deriving research and development with physical therapy technology.

Applying Application-Level Multicast technology (ALM) to Distributed Interactive Applications (DIAs) becomes more and more popular. Especially for DIAs embedded priority that the sender forwards data to receivers due to their respective priorities. The priority-based directed minimum spanning tree (PST) algorithm was designed for these DIAs. However, the PST has no efficient priority selection and filtering mechanism. The system will consume a tremendous amount of resource for reconstructing distribution tree and becomes unstable and unscalable. In this paper, First, We propose a novel priority-based application level multicast algorithm: Predict-and-Quantize for Priority with directed minimum Spanning Tree (PQPST), which can efficiently predict efficient priorities for the receivers and quantize the predicted priorities to build the multicast distribution tree. Second, we propose Priority Discrepancy Heuristic Mechanism (PDHM), which sets different thresholds of priority discrepancy within the priority discrepancy interval to control the distribution tree construction can efficiently decrease the repeated distribution tree construction, and we get the best heuristic priority discrepancy interval by PQPST. According to the simulation results, the PQPST and PDHM can efficiently improve the performance of the PST algorithm.

본 연구는 21세기형 초경쟁 환경에서 지속가능한 경쟁우위를 위해 전략적 자원인 기술자원을 보호하기 위한 기업의 시도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 실증 연구한다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 전략경영의 자원기반관점과 거시 조직이론의 관점에서 기업들이 불확실하고 급변하는 환경에 대응하여 신속하고 강력하게 자신의 혁신적 기술을 보호하는 동시에 경쟁자들의 기술탐색을 제한할 수 있는 제도인 '우선권주장출원'이라는 기술보호전략의 실행에 영향을 미치는 시장 환경요인들을 분석한다. 본 연구에서는 기업들이 특허출원이라는 기술혁신 성과를 보호하기 위한 일반적 전략을 넘어서서, 더 강력한 경쟁전략인 우선권주장출원을 왜 선택하는지, 그리고 이 강화된 기술자원 보호전략이 어떻게 경쟁자들을 견제할 수 있는지에 대해, 대표적인 초경쟁 산업인 대한민국 하이테크 전자기업들 특허데이터와 재무데이터를 이용하여 실증 연구한다. 1994년부터 2008년까지 우리나라 하이테크 전자기업들이 출원한 특허출원 데이터와 재무데이터를 기반으로 한 실증분석의 결과, 기업들의 우선권주장출원전략을 실행하는 것은 외생적 충격과 환경불확실성에 의해 부정적인 영향을 받는 반면, 시장변동성에 의해 긍정적인 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 각 기업의 지위는 위 세 가지 요인들의 영향을 약화시키는 방향으로 조절효과를 가지는 것으로 나타났다.

For contents delivery systems, the service is considered in which the utility depends on each priority class. This paper deals with the multiple priority class of the contents delivery system from the viewpoint of the utility. The willingness to pay (WTP) is introduced as a measure of utility, and the optimum condition is analyzed to maximize the total user's utility. For the system with multiple priority classes, the optimum condition is given in terms of the traffic load, wating time for service for each priority class. Systems with the priority classes, 1, 2 and 3 are analyzed, and the effect of the number of priority classes is examined.

To reduce delay for high priority packets in the ring-based EPON, the EPON packet classifier groups services as their priorities and frames for services are dynamically framed as their priorities. Since dynamic framing for a packet priority dynamically changes assignment spaces in the maximum framing packet size as network traffics, it makes services with high priority to improve quality of services with relative low threshold time for transmitting.

In recent years, data centers have become the core infrastructure to deal with big data processing. For these big data applications, network transmission has become one of the most important factors affecting the performance. In order to improve network utilization and reduce job completion time, in this paper, by real-time monitoring from the application layer, we propose job-aware priority scheduling. Our approach takes the correlations of flows in the same job into account, and flows in the same job are assigned the same priority. Therefore, we expect that flows in the same job finish their transmissions at about the same time, avoiding lagging flows. To achieve load balancing, two approaches (Flow-based and Spray) using ECMP (Equal-Cost multi-path routing) are presented. We implemented our scheme using NS-2 simulator. In our evaluations, we emulate real network environment by setting background traffic, scheduling delay and link failures. The experimental results show that our approach can enhance the Hadoop job execution efficiency of the shuffle stage, significantly reduce the network transmission time of the highest priority job.
