In this paper, I propose a thread scheduling policy for faster packet processing on the network processors with multithreaded multiprocessor architecture. To implement the proposed policy, I derived several basic parameters related to the thread scheduling and included a new parameter representing the packet contents and the features of the multithreaded architecture. Through the empirical study using a network processor, I proved the proposed scheduling ploicy provides better throughput and load balancing compared to the generally used thread scheduling policy.

This paper describes a real-time scheduling system re-construction project for automated manufacturing at a 300mm wafer fab of Korean semiconductor manufacturing company. During executing this project, for each main operation such as clean, diffusion, deposition, photolithography, and metallization, each adopted scheduling algorithm was developed, and then those were implemented in a real-time scheduling system. In this paper, we focus on the scheduling algorithms and real-time scheduling system for clean and diffusion operations, that is, a serial-process block with the constraint of limited queue time and batch processors. After this project was completed, the automated manufacturing utilizations of clean and diffusion operations became around 91% and 83% respectively, which were about 50% and 10% at the beginning of this project. The automated manufacturing system reduces direct operating costs, increased throughput on the equipments, and suggests continuous and uninterrupted processings.

The imprecise real-time system provides flexibility in scheduling time-critical tasks. Most scheduling problems of satisfying both 0/1 constraint and timing constraints, while the total error is minimized, are NP complete when the optional tasks have arbitrary processing times. Liu suggested a reasonable strategy of scheduling tasks with the 0/1 constraint on uniprocessors for minimizing the total error. Song et al suggested a reasonable strategy of scheduling tasks with the 0/1 constraint on multiprocessors for minimizing the total error. But, these algorithms are all off-line algorithms. On the other hand, in the case of on line scheduling, Shih and Liu proposed the NORA algorithm which can find a schedule with the minimum total error for a task system consisting solely of on-line tasks that are ready upon arrival. But, for the task system with 0/1 constraint, it has not been known whether the NORA algorithm can be optimal or not in the sense that it guarantees all mandatory tasks are completed by their deadlines and the total error is minimized. So, this paper suggests an optimal algorithm to search minimum total error for the imprecise on-line real-time task system with 0/1 constraint. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm has the same complexity, O(N log N), as the NORA algorithm, where N is the number of tasks.

This paper deals with a realistic production scheduling under a make-to-order production environment. The practical case is studied on the transformer winding process in the 'H' company. The transformer winding is a process that rolls a coil that is coated with an electric insulation material in order to generate the required voltage using the voltage fluctuation. This process occupies an important position among the production processes in the transformer manufacturing company. And this process is composed of parallel machines with different performances according to the voltage capacity and winding type. In this paper, we propose a practical heuristic algorithm for production scheduling to satisfy the customer’s due date under a make-to-order production environment. Also, we implement the production scheduling system based on the proposed heuristic algorithm. Consequently, the proposed heuristic algorithm and the implemented production scheduling system are currently working in the transformer production factory of the ‘H’ company.

A main issue about production management of shipyards is to efficiently manage the work in process and logistics. However, so far the management of a transporter for moving building blocks has not been efficiently performed. To solve the issues, optimal block transporting scheduling system is developed for minimizing of the travel distance without overload of a transporter. To implement the developed system, a hybrid optimization algorithm for an optimal block transportation scheduling is proposed by combining the genetic algorithm and the ant algorithm. Finally, to evaluate the applicability of the developed system, it is applied to a block transportation scheduling problem of shipyards. The result shows that the developed system can generate the optimal block transportation scheduling of a transporter which minimizes the travel distance without overload of the transporter.

Cloud computing is a new technology that has adapted to the traditional way of service providing. Service providers are responsible for managing the allocation of resources. Selecting suitable containers and bandwidth for job scheduling has been a challenging task for the service providers. There are several existing systems that have introduced many algorithms for resource allocation. To overcome these challenges, the proposed system introduces an Optimized Task Scheduling Algorithm with Deep Learning (OTS-DL). When a job is assigned to a Cloud Service Provider (CSP), the containers are allocated automatically. The article segregates the containers as' Long-Term Container (LTC)' and 'Short-Term Container (STC)' for resource allocation. The system leverages an 'Optimized Task Scheduling Algorithm' to maximize the resource utilisation that initially inquires for micro-task and macro-task dependencies. The bottleneck task is chosen and acted upon accordingly. Further, the system initializes a 'Deep Learning' (DL) for implementing all the progressive steps of job scheduling in the cloud. Further, to overcome container attacks and errors, the system formulates a Container Convergence (Fault Tolerance) theory with high-level security. The results demonstrate that the used optimization algorithm is more effective for implementing a complete resource allocation and solving the large-scale optimization problem of resource allocation and security issues.

Scheduling for nursing personnel involves many factors and requirements. Therefore, manual scheduling requires much time and effort to produce an adequate schedule. This paper introduces a PC based nurse scheduling support system which was developed in Microsoft Access 2.0, an easy to use data base management tool. First step of this system is to determine necessary number of nursing personnel by medical law or by patient classification. Current Korean medical law stipulates that number of patients attended by a nurse is 2.5 for hospitalization. In addition, necessary nursing personnel by patient classification was determined four nurses for seven patients in this system based on the authors' preliminary study. And the second step is to assign daily duty type for each nurse at every nursing unit automatically. The introduced system fully utilizes the GUI environment of Microsoft Windows and even makes the computer-novice nurses feel comfortable in using the system. This system can help nursing administrators improve nurse scheduling in a way of quick and easy schedule generation for the future, and allow nurses more time for patient care.

As vehicles become intelligent for convenience and safety of drivers, in-vehicle networking (IVN) systems are essential components of intelligent vehicles. Recently, the chassis networking system which require increased network capacity and real-time capability is being developed to expand the application area of IVN systems. Also, FlexRay has been developed for the chassis networking system. However, FlexRay needs a complex scheduling method of static segment, which is a barrier for implementing the chassis networking system. Especially, if we want to migrate from CAN network to FlexRay network using CAN message database that was well constructed for the chassis networking system by automotive vendors, a novel scheduling method is necessary to be able to reduce design complexity. This paper presents a node-based scheduling method for FlexRay network system. And, in order to demonstrate the method's feasibility, its performance is evaluated through an experimental testbed.

Today, manpower is used as a major factor in the production of service industry that is on the increasing trend. So the research on manpower structure have been regarded as a important field. The research on personnel scheduling, however, have got de-emphasizeed as compared wi th the field of manufacturing scheduling. As the increasing trend of service industry, an appropriate personnel scheduling for each type of service industry is needed urgently. This paper deals with nurse scheduling problem in the field of personnel scheduling. We aim at developing prototype of the expert nurse scheduling program which is easy to use when scheduling without help of expert, and satisfies the various request of hospital scheduling policy and nurse scheduling.
