Domestic ice making companies make effort to obtain products and neglect to introduce low cost product improvements with energy savings. The work presented here is an implementation of ice making method to improve both energy efficiency and productivity. In this present investigation, several ice making cycles are proposed for higher efficiency in the system. COP(Coefficient of Performance), ice making time and electric energy consumption are evaluated and compared with the conventional system. Results shows that COP is improved with more efficient use of time for ice making and electric consumption. Therefore, this can offer an opportunity for more efficient use of energy and higher productivity in ice making.

The delay in the construction permit for the building, which obtained the approval of business proposal, may lead to a difference in the maintenance cost ranging between 20% and 30% in the neighborhood where the residents moved in, along with the new project under construction in the surrounding area amidst rigorous regulations that aim to promote energy-saving and the heightened interest of the public in energy conservation, and such problem would become the major source of serious public complaints. Thus, the energy-saving plan needs to be prepared when the approval is granted to the business plan. In order to prevent public complaints or ensure effectiveness of government's energy plan, it may be effective to apply the energy-saving plan based on current standards upon the award of construction permit when two years have elapsed since the date of the scheduled commencement of construction or when the start of construction is delayed as stipulated in the Article 18 of the Enforcement Decree of Housing Act. If the energy-saving plan and related technologies are merely the parts of license and permit process without fully serving their purposes and functions, it would be waste of time to deploy a lot of workforce and review and seek consultation. The government or owners of buildings need to fully understand the energy-saving aspects and exert effort to enhance the energy efficiency of buildings.

The purpose of this paper is to empirically analyze the economic effect of energy saving investment on the improvement of energy intensity. The data used in this paper are panel data, both time-series and cross-section data. In addition, eight manufacturing sectors has been divided into two groups: massive energy consuming (four industries) and non-massive energy consuming (four industries) ones and the time period of analysis is from 1982 to 2004. According to the empirical results, firstly, energy saving investment has a negative relationship with energy intensity, however, its effect is not high in terms of absolute volume of energy consuming. Secondly, in improving energy intensity of energy saving investment, its elasticity IS higher in non-massive energy consuming sector compared it with massive energy consuming sector. Thirdly, automation investment is also playing an important role in energy conservation. The elasticities of automation investment to energy intensity are larger than those of energy saving investment. In terms of the reduction of greenhouse gas per investment unit cost, however, energy saving investment has larger effect than automation investment.

Nowadays various methods for energy saving have been studied in IP networks. This paper suggests a 2-phase OSPF routing method for energy saving on IP networks having various energy profiles and analyzes its characteristics. The phase-1 of the routing is an OSPF routing method considering the energy cost of devices besides existing metrics to minimize energy consumption. In the phase-2 of the routing, it makes core nodes go into sleep sate for energy saving and reroutes the paths affected by sleeping core nodes. At this time, we confirm that the characteristics of mean delay and energy efficiency can be satisfied by limiting an allowable hop number in the reroute paths, and utilization rate of nodes and links for assuring energy saving and network-level QoS. Since the efficiency of energy saving and delay characteristics differ according to selection methods of core nodes to go into sleep state, it is that the a method of core node selection based on MP(minimum_path) is more excellent than others in terms of network-level QoS and energy saving in IP networks.

Due to the large number of documents that are important to people and many of their requests from time to time to perform an essential official procedure, this requires a practical arrangement and organization for them. When necessary, many people struggle with effectively arranging official documents that enable display, which takes a lot of time and effort. Also, no mobile apps specialize in professionally preserving essential electronic records and displaying them when needed. Dataset consisting of 10,841 rows and 13 columns was analyzed using Anaconda, Python, and Mito Data Science new tool obtained from Google Play. The research was conducted using the quantitative descriptive approach. The presented solution is a model specialized in saving essential documents, categorizing according to the user's desire, and displaying them when needed. It is possible to send in an image or a pdf file. Aside from identifying file kinds like PDFs and pictures, the model also looks for and verifies specific file extensions. The file extension and its properties are checked before sharing or saving it by applying the similarity algorithm (Levenshtein). Our method effectively and efficiently facilitated the search process, saving the user time and effort. In conclusion, such an application is not available, which facilitates the process of classifying documents effectively and displaying them quickly and easily for people for printing or sending to some official procedures, and it is considered one of the applications that greatly help in preserving time, effort, and money for people.

In wireless networks, maximizing throughput and minimizing energy consumption are two conflicting objectives. For elastic traffic, it is important to enhance the throughput since it directly affects the quality-of-service(QoS) of users. At the same time, the energy consumption should be minimized in order to prolong the battery lifetime of the mobile station. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient sleep scheme that considers throughput and energy saving simultaneously. The proposed scheme is designed for an efficient tradeoff between throughput and energy saving when receiving elastic traffic. Through extensive simulations, we compare the proposed scheme with the conventional scheme. Our proposed scheme outperforms the conventional one in terms of utility, i.e., user satisfaction, which is defined as inversely proportional to the weighted multiplication of service completion time and energy consumption.

Energy Saving Methods in existing railway vehicle are considered by active approach such as regenerative energy storage and utilization, eco driving, etc. On the other hands, energy saving measures in railway station are operated by passive method such as reduction of operating time in ventilation system, cooing system and power equipment. To reduce energy and for independence in railway system, it requires an active energy saving measures. It needs to its own power source besides the power source of electric supply company such as renewable energy and regenerative energy and take the advantage of power storage system and stored power are used in optimum time. This paper deal with 3-level NPC inverter and T-type NPC inverter that used in various multi-level topology applicable to the railway system.

In order to ensure high performance, all the servers in an existing server cluster are always On regardless of number of real-time requests. They ensure QoS, but waste server power if some of them are idle. To save energy consumed by servers, the server power mode control was developed by shutdowning a server when a server is not needed. There are two types of server power mode control depending on when a server is actually turned off if the server is selected to be off: static or dynamic. In a static mode, the server power is actually turned off after a fixed time delay from the time of the server selection. In a dynamic mode, server power is actually turned off if all the services served in the server are done. This corresponds to a turn off after a variable time delay. The static mdoe has disadvantages. It takes much time to find an optimal shutdown time manually through repeated experiments. In this paper, we propose a dynamic shutdown method to overcome the disadvantages of static shutdown. The proposed method allows to guarantee user QoS with good power-saving because it automatically approaches an optimal shutdown time. We performed experiments using 30 PCs cluster. Experimental results show that the proposed dynamic shutdown method is almost same as the best static shutdown in terms of power saving, but better than the best static shutdown in terms of QoS.

Nowadays the adaptive buffering techniques for burst stream packet configuration and its operation algorithm to save energy in IP core network have been studied. This paper explains the selection method of packet buffering interval for energy saving when configuring burst stream packet at the ingress router in IP core network. Especially the adaptive buffering interval and its implementation scheme are required to improve the energy saving efficiency at the input part of the ingress router. In this paper, we propose the best adaptive buffering scheme that a current buffering interval is adaptively buffering scheme based on the input traffic of the past buffering interval, and analyze its characteristics of energy saving and end-to-end delay by computer simulation. We show the improvement of energy saving effect and reduction of mean delay variation when using an appropriate inverse-function selecting the buffering interval for the configuration of burst stream packet in this paper. We confirm this method have superior properties compared to other method. The proposed method shows that it is less sensitive to the various input traffic type of ingress router and a practical method.
