Recently, Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) technology recently has been used in various industries. Especially, a number of multi-channel assignment schemes have been presented to improve the throughput of IEEE 802.11-based multi-hop WMN. However, performance of the conventional multi-channel assignment schemes is not enough to satisfy the industry requirements. We, thus, should study more about the multi-channel assignment scheme in order to enhance the performance. This paper proposes a novel channel assignment scheme that employs Multi-channel and Multi-Interface in the WMN. The proposed scheme can obtain the traffic information of the network and the efficient channel assignment result without any message exchanges. We verify the efficiency of the proposed scheme through the mathematical modeling and the real-world experiments. The results show that the proposed scheme improves the throughput of the network compared with the conventional schemes.

This paper defines the reliable based route choice Principle and formulates the reliability based equilibrium traffic assignment using the Principle. The reliability is defined as the difference of travel demand and capacity using the interference theory of the system engineering. An efficient solution a1gorithm based on Frank-Wo1fe algolithm is Presented to calculate and compare the reliability based traffic assignment with conventional travel time based assignment using small and large scaled road networks. The results show that reliability based traffic assignment converges to equilibrium solution in a reasonable computing time. The equilibrium link flows between reliability and travel time based traffic assignment differ each other in the sense that reliability based assignment is assigned based on the maximum difference of travel demand and link capacity whilst travel time based is assigned on the shortest travel time.

This paper suggests simple search algorithm for optimal solution in assignment problem. Generally, the optimal solution of assignment problem can be obtained by Hungarian algorithm. The proposed algorithm reduces the 4 steps of Hungarian algorithm to 1 step, and only selects the minimum cost of row and column then gets the optimal solution simply. For the 27 balanced and 7 unbalanced assignment problems, this algorithm finds the optimal solution but the genetic algorithm fails to find this values. This algorithm improves the time complexity O($n^3$) of Hungarian algorithm to O(n). Therefore, the proposed algorithm can be general algorithm for assignment problem replace Hungarian algorithm.

In this paper, a study on task assignment strategies for a complex real-time network system is presented. Firstly, two task assignment strategies are proposed to improve previous strategies. The proposed strategies assign tasks with meeting end-to-end real-time constraints, and also with optimizing system utilization through period modulation of the tasks. Consequently, the strategies aim at the optimizationto optimize of system performance with while still meeting real-time constraints. The proposed task assignment strategies are devised using the genetic algorithmswith heuristic real-time constraints in the generation of new populations. The strategies are differentiated by the optimization method of the two objectives-meeting end-to-end real-time constraints and optimizing system utilization: the first one has sequential genetic algorithm routines for the objectives, and the second one has one multiple objective genetic algorithm routine to find a Pareto solution. Secondly, the performances of the proposed strategies and a well-known existing task assignment strategy using the BnB(Branch and Bound) optimization are compared with one other through some simulation tests. Through the comparison of the simulation results, the most adequate task assignment strategies are proposed for some as system requirements-: the optimization of system utilization, the maximization of running tasktasks, and the minimization of the number of network node nodesnumber for a network system.

A berth assignment problem has a direct impact on assessment of charges made to ships and goods. In this paper, we concerned with of fuzzy mathematical programming models for a berth assignment problem to achieved an efficient berth operation in a fuzzy environment. In this paper, we focus on the berth assignment programming with fuzzy parameters which are based on personal opinions or subjective judgement. From the above point of view, assume that a goal and a constraint are given by fuzzy sets, respectively, which are characterized by membership functions. Let a fuzzy decision be defined as the fuzzy set resulting from the intersection of a goal and constraint. This paper deals with fuzziness in all parameters which are expressed by fuzzy numbers. A fuzzy parameter defined by a fuzzy number means a possibility distribution of the parameters. These fuzzy 0-1 integer programming problems are formulated by fuzzy functions whose concept is also called the extension principle. We deal with a berth assignment problem with triangular fuzzy coefficients and propose a branch and bound algorithm for solving the problem. We suggest three models of berth assignment to minimizing the objective functions such as total port time, total berthing time and maximum berthing time by using a revised Maximum Position Shift(MPS) concept. The berth assignment problem is formulated by min-max and fuzzy 0-1 integer programming. Finally, we gave the numerical solutions of the illustrative examples.

In this paper, we suggest a message-based communication protocol and a dynamic role assignment mechanism for efficient cooperation and teamwork of agents in computer game environments. This role assignment mechanism is a new one different from both existing static and dynamic mechanisms, in which all decisions related with role assignment are made at once in design phase or execution phase. According to our mechanism, all possible role sets are determined in design phase. Detail decisions regarding which agent takes what role, however, are made in execution phase. This mechanism for role assignment can minimize the negotiation effort in execution phase. Therefore, this mechanism is quite effective especially in real-time multiagent environments. Through experiments, we show the superiority of the new dynamic role assignment mechanism.

Significant progress has been achieved in the active control of civil-engineering structures, not only in the control algorithm, but also in control testing of the scaled model and full-scale building. At the present time, most algorithms used in the active control of civil engineering structures are based on the various active control techniques. In this paper represents active control method, by using pole assignment for reducing structural vibration under excited load. Numerical simulations are performed to assess the effectiveness of pole assignment control system. The relative displacement of structure system is significantly reduced.

The Object of this study is to find the relations between LQR and eigenstructure assignment regulator. Algorithms for computing weighting matrices are proposed for the case that (i) closed-loop eigenvalues are specified, and (ii) closed-loop gain matrix is given. We also present a new eigenstructure assignment algorithm that minimizes a linear quadratic performance index.

This paper presents a dynamic resource allocation algorithm with multi-frequency time-division multiple access for the return link of interactive satellite multimedia networks such as digital video broadcasting return channel via satellite systems. The proposed timeslot assignment algorithm, called the very efficient dynamic timeslot assignment (VEDTA) algorithm, gives an optimal assignment plan within a very short period. The optimality and computational efficiency of this algorithm demonstrate that it will be useful in field applications.

The state assignment for a finite state machine greatly affects the delay, area, and testabilities of the sequential circuits. In order to minimize the dependencies among state variables, therefore possibly to reduce the length and number of feedback cycles, a new state assignment technique based on m-block partition is introduced in this paper. After the completion of state assignment and logic synthesis, partial scan design is performed to choose minimal number of scan flip-flops. Experiment shows drastic improvement in testabilities while preserving low area and delay overhead.
