Effects of different harvest time were studied on chemical composition, yield, and hardeness of milled rice. There was no difference between harvest time after 33 days. Yield of milled rice was increased as harvest time increased and only rice flour prepared in harvest time after 45 days had a good appearance. Results of different enzyme solution treatment showed that a-amylase solution had the best result and optimal condition of soaking time was 4 hour.

The current paper is on a study of the performance estimation fer data processing time and CPU utilization to efficiently develop the real-time system. The analytical modeling and OPNET modeling and benchmarking tests are applied to perform the estimation for data processing time and CPU utilization in real-time system. We demonstrate that the estimation results can be predicted fairly and accurately through the benchmarking test results although there is a small variance between the estimation results and the benchmarking test results.

Cloud computing promises high performance and cost-efficiency. However, most cloud infrastructures operate at a low utilization, which greatly adheres cost effectiveness. Previous works focus on seeking efficient virtual machine (VM) consolidation strategies to increase the utilization of virtual resources in production environment, but overlook the under-utilization of backup virtual resources. We propose a heuristic time sharing policy of backup VMs derived from the restless multi-armed bandit problem. The proposed policy achieves increasing backup virtual resources utilization and providing high availability. Both the results in simulation and prototype system experiments show that the traditional 1:1 backup provision can be extended to 1:M (M≫1) between the backup VMs and the service VMs, and the utilization of backup VMs can be enhanced significantly.

This study was to examine the effects of insurance coverage on the utilization of public health institutions and to identify the factors associated with the utilization. The data were obtained from household interview surveys conducted twice in Hwachun Gun, Kangwon Do. The time period covered in the first survey was December $17{\sim}31$, 1987, before the implementation of regional medical insurance for the self-employed, and that of the second survey was January 28 $\sim$ Febuary 11, 1990, after its implementation. Major findings emerged from the analysis can be summarized as follows (1) Medical care utilization of rural people markedly increased after they were covered by medical insurance. The insurance coverage increased the utilization of public health institutions as well, and this increase was mainly attributable to the utilization by chronically ill patients. (2) Between 1987 and 1990, the proportion of the utilization of public health institutions over whole medical care utilization decreased. But the proportion increased for chronically ill patients covered by regional medical insurance during the same time span. (3) The results of logistic regression suggested that the rural self-employed utilized public health institutions at an increased rate after they were covered by medical insurance. It was also indicated that the increase resulted from the utilization by chronically ill patients. (4) The relative importance of public health institutions for rural medical care decreased after the implementation of regional medical insurance. But considering that the utilization of public health institutions by chronically ill patients increased after insurance coverage, attention should be directed to improving the capability of public health institutions to control chronic degenerative diseases.

The effective channel usage is important for delivering a large number of packets in a short time, and it enhances channel utilization in sensor networks. Channel utilization is a good metric to illustrate MAC protocol efficiency. This paper presents the MAC(Media Access Control) Protocol that combines the advantages of B-MAC(Berkeley-MAC) and TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) to obtain high channel utilization. Basically, Using the backoff, CCA(Clear Channel Assessment) and LPL(Low Power Listen) mechanisms reduce collision and energy consumption, this protocol makes at the same time transmission method different depending on contention state and obtains high channel utilization. Through the simulation, this paper shows enhanced performance comparing with existing MAC Protocols.

In the guaranteed service, a real-time scheduling algorithm must achieve both high level of network utilization and scalable implementation. Here, network utilization indicates the number of admitted real-time sessions. Unfortunately, existing scheduling algorithms either are lack of scalable implementation or can achieve low network utilization. For example, scheduling algorithms based on time-stamps have the problem of O(log N) scheduling complexity where N is the number of sessions. On the contrary, round-robin algorithms require O(1) complexity. but can achieve just a low level of network utilization. In this paper, we propose a scheduling algorithm that can achieve high network utilization without losing scalability. The proposed algorithm is a Hierarchical Round-Robin (H-RR) algorithm that utilizes multiple rounds with different interval sizes. It provides latency bounds similar to those by Packet-by-Packet Generalized Processor Sharing (PGPS) algorithm using a sorted-Priority queue. However, H-RR requires a constant time for implementation.

The performance of truck haulage operations in an underground mine was evaluated using the time usage model and key performance indicators (KPIs) proposed by Global Mining Guidelines Group (GMG). An underground mine that mainly produces iron and titanium iron was selected as a study area, and truck haulage data were collected using Bluetooth beacons and tablet PCs. The collected data were analyzed to identify unit operations, activities, events, and required time of truck haulage operations, and time categories were classified based on the time usage model. The performance of the haulage operations was evaluated using nine indicators in terms of availability, utilization, and effectiveness. As a result, in terms of availability, uptime was 33.9%, physical availability was 95.7%, and mechanical availability was 94.9%. In the case of utilization, use of availability was 83.1%, asset utilization was 28.1%, and operating and effective utilization were 79.6% and 77.7%, respectively. Also, in terms of efficiency, operating efficiency was high at 97.6%, and production effectiveness was found to be 49%.

In this paper, in order to investigate the efficiency of solar power generation system operation, we have studied operation cases such as generation amount, utilization rate, and generation time, and the following conclusions were obtained. The amount of power generation in 2017 was 1,311.48 MWh, and the amount of power generation in 2018 was 1,226.03 MWh. In 2021, 1,184.28 MWh was generated, and 90.30% compared to 2017, and the amount of power generation decreased by 1.94% every year. The deterioration of photovoltaic modules could be seen as one cause of the decrease in power generation. 1,977.74 MWh was generated in the spring, and 1,621.77 MWh was generated in the summer. In addition, 1,478.87 MWh was generated in the fall, and 1,110.55 MWh was generated in the winter, showing a lot of power generation in the order of spring, summer, fall, and winter. From 2017 to 2022, the seasonal utilization rate, daily power generation time, and daily power generation were investigated, and it could be seen that the spring utilization rate varies from 19.29% to 16.99%. It could be seen that the daily generation time in winter decreased from 2.67 hours to 2.13 hours, and in spring it generated longer than spring from 4.63 hours to 4.08 hours. In addition, the daily power generation in winter also decreased from 2.67 MWh to 2.13 MWh, and in spring it decreased from 4.63 MWh to 4.08 MWh, but it could be seen that it is more than in winter.

Automated Guided Vehicles are widely used as an essential material handling system for FMS to provide flexibility and efficiency. We suggest a new dispatching rule based on priority function which considers urgency and empty vehicle travel time under finite buffer capacity. We evaluate the performance of the proposed rule by comparing the performance of Shortest Travel Time/Distance(STT/D) rule in terms of machine utilization, throughput and WIP level using simulation. The simulation results show that the suggested dispatching rule is robust and provides better machine utilization, throughput with comparable WIP level compared to STT/D rule.
