Tree-based structures offer assured optimal paths from the data source to the sink. Shortest routes are disregarded since these do not consider the remaining energy level of the nodes. This shortens the lifetime of the whole network. Most tree-based routing protocols, although aware of the nodes' energy, do not consider an energy aware sleep scheduling scheme. We propose an energy-aware sleep scheduling (EASS) scheme that will improve the sleep scheduling scheme of an existing tree-based routing protocol. An energy harvesting structure will be implemented on the wireless sensor network. The depth of sleep of every node will be based on the harvested energy.

The introduction of competition in electricity market emphasizes the importance of sufficient transmission capacities to guarantee various electricity transactions. Therefore, when dispatch scheduling, transmission security constraints should be considered for the economic and stable electric power system operation. In this paper, we propose an optimal dispatch scheduling algorithm incorporating transmission security constraints. For solving these constraints, the dispatch scheduling problem is decomposed into a master problem to calculate a general optimal power flow (OPF) without transmission security constraints and several subproblems to inspect the feasibility of OPF solution under various transmission line contingencies. If a dispatch schedule given by the master problem violates transmission security constraints, then an additional constraint is imposed to the master problem. Through these iteration processes between the master problem and subproblems, an optimal dispatch schedule reflecting the post-contingency rescheduling is derived. Moreover, since interruptible loads can positively participate as generators in the competitive electricity market, we consider these interruptible loads active control variables. Numerical example demonstrates efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

분간 병렬 시스템에서 사용되는 배치 작업 스케줄링 기법으로 잘 알리진 것은 Gang Scheduling과 Backfilling Scheduler가 있다. 특히 IBM SP 시스템에서 주로 사용되는 작업 스케줄러인 LoadLeveler 최신 버전에서는 이전 버전에서도 지원하였던 Backfilling Scheduler 뿐만 아니라 Gang Scheduling 기법을 새롭게 지원하게 되었다. 이에 따라 KISTI 슈퍼컴퓨팅센터에서는 슈퍼컴퓨터 3호기로 신규 도입된 IBM p690 시스템에서 LoadLeveler의 Gang Scheduling 혹은 Backfilling Scheduler 중의 한 가지 기법을 선택하여 서비스 레벨 클래스를 구현하고자 하였다. 이러한 노력의 일환으로 두 가지 스케줄링 기법을 테스트 및 분석하였다. 이에 따르면 Gang Scheduler가 개념상 여러 가지 장점을 가지므로 Backfilling Scheduler에 비하여 서비스 레벨 클래스 구성에는 용이하지만, 불완전한 구현 및 특히 CPU Utilization이 저하되는 심각한 문제점을 가지고 있었다. 따라서 Backfilling Scheduler를 통한 제한적인 서비스 레벨 클래스를 구성하기로 결론지었다.

Maintenance scheduling plays an important role in evaluating the supply reliability of power systems. Since generating units must be maintained and inspected, the generation planner must schedule planned outages during the year. Several factors entering into this scheduling analysis include: seasonal load-demand profile, amount of maintenance to bo done on all generating units, size of the units, elapsed time from last maintenance, and availability of maintenance crews. This paper proposes a new algorithm to decide the multi-year maintenance scheduling with considering the total cost. We adjust the maintenance scheduling to levelize the reliability over all period. The proposed algorithm is applied to a real size power system and the developed reliability results are obtained.

This paper is concerning on a study on the object-oriented programming and its application to maintenance scheduling. The concept of object-oriented programming enables us to modify and reuse software with much ease. By introducing object-oriented programming to maintenance scheduling, we can develop a hierarchical and reusable software in maintenance scheduling. The maintenance scheduling problem becoming more and more large and complex can be dealt with the concept of object-oriented technique and we hope this concept will give a reasonable solution. And evolutionary computation will be developed as a optimization technique.

Genetic Algorithm(GA) is a searching or optimizing algorithm based on natural evolution principle. GA has demonstrated considerable success in providing good solutions to many nonlinear, multi-dimensional optimization problems. The preventative maintenance scheduling is a kind of dynamic optimization problem with constraints. This paper applies GA to the preventative maintenance scheduling problem. In the case study, we can get the preventative maintenance scheduling of 3-generators during 8 weeks using GA. It is shown that GA can be available to the preventative maintenance scheduling problem.

In this paper, CPLD low power technology mapping for reuse module design under the time constraint is proposed. Traditional high-level synthesis do not allow reuse of complex, realistic datapath component during the task of scheduling. On the other hand, the proposed algorithm is able to approach a productivity of the design the low power to reuse which given a library of user-defined datapath component and to share of resource sharing on the switching activity in a shared resource. Also, we are obtainable the optimal the scheduling result in experimental results of our using chaining and multi-cycling in the scheduling techniques. Low power circuit make using CPLD technology mapping algorithm for selection reuse module by scheduling.

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.

Hitherto, train schedules are made by several human experts and the scheduling is very long and tedious job. Moreover those results are not accepted as the optimal solution. The purpose of this research is the finding of optimal methodology and useful constraints for locomotive scheduling. For these purposes, the interactive simulation program for train linking schedule is developed. Some constraints and technique for train linking scheduling is able to be edited or modified by various interactive windows. The constraints, rules and methodology for scheduling can be analyzed and also obtained useful schedule results by using this program.

Researches about scheduling distributed real-time systems have some weak points, not scheduling both sporadic and periodic tasks and messages or being unable to guaranteeing the end-to-end constraints due to omitting precedence relations between sporadic tasks. This paper describes the application model of sporadic tasks with precedence constraints in a distributed real-time system. It is shown that existing scheduling methods such as Rate Monotonic scheduling are not proper to be applied to the system having sporadic tasks with precedence constraints. So this paper proposes an end-to-end laxity-based priority assignment algorithm which considers the practical laxity of a task and allocates a proper priority to a task.
