This paper discusses on the machine loading and tool allocation (MLTA) problem. Mathematical formulation of the problem is given first. Then a heuristic approach based on Group Technology (GT) is presented to deal with the MLTA problem effectively. By using this approach, part-tool group generation and their assignment to adequate machines can easily be obtained in consideration of the work load on each machine, the number of tool-set replacement, and the total number of cutting tools required through the interactive setting of the desired machine utilization rate.

A series of one-dimensional consolidation tests and triaxial creep tests were performed on Nansha clays, which are interactive marine and terrestrial deposits, to investigate their time-dependent behaviour. Based on experimental observations of oedometer tests, normally consolidated soils exhibit larger secondary compression than overconsolidated soils; the secondary consolidation coefficient ($C_{\alpha}$) generally gets the maximum value as load approaches the preconsolidation pressure. The postsurcharge secondary consolidation coefficient ($C_{\alpha}$') is significantly less than $C_{\alpha}$. The observed secondary compression behaviour is consistent with the $C_{\alpha}/C_c$ concept, regardless of surcharging. The $C_{\alpha}/C_c$ ratio is a constant that is applicable to the recompression and compression ranges. Compared with the stage-loading test, the single-loading oedometer test can evaluate the entire process of secondary compression; $C_{\alpha}$ varies significantly with time and is larger than the $C_{\alpha}$ obtained from the stage-loading test. Based on experimental observations of triaxial creep tests, the creep for the drained state differs from the creep for the undrained state. The behaviour can be predicted by a characteristic relationship among axial strain rate, deviator stress level and time.

Recently, recommender systems have been widely applied in E-commerce websites to help their customers find the items what they want. A recommender system should be able to provide users with useful information regarding their interests. The ability to immediately respond to the changes in user's preference is a valuable asset of recommender systems. This paper proposes a novel recommender system which aims to effectively adapt and respond to the immediate changes in user's preference. The proposed system combines IEC (Interactive Evolutionary Computation) with a content-based filtering method and also employs data grouping in order to improve time efficiency. Experiments show that the proposed system makes acceptable recommendations while ensuring quality and speed. From a comparative experimental study with an existing recommender system which uses the content-based filtering, it is revealed that the proposed system produces more reliable recommendations and adaptively responds to the changes in any given condition. It denotes that the proposed approach can be an alternative to resolve limitations (e.g., over-specialization and sparse problems) of the existing methods.

This paper presents a cooperation strategy between a human operator and autonomous robots for an interactive robot soccer game, The interactive robot soccer game has been developed to allow humans to join into the game dynamically and reinforce entertainment characteristics. In order to make these games more interesting, a cooperation strategy between humans and autonomous robots on a team is very important. Strategies can be pre-programmed or learned by robots themselves with learning or evolving algorithms. Since the robot soccer system is hard to model and its environment changes dynamically, it is very difficult to pre-program cooperation strategies between robot agents. Q-learning - one of the most representative reinforcement learning methods - is shown to be effective for solving problems dynamically without explicit knowledge of the system. Therefore, in our research, a Q-learning based learning method has been utilized. Prior to utilizing Q-teaming, state variables describing the game situation and actions' sets of robots have been defined. After the learning process, the human operator could play the game more easily. To evaluate the usefulness of the proposed strategy, some simulations and games have been carried out.

It is well known that mathematical solutions for multi-agent planning problems are very difficult to obtain due to the complexity of mutual interactions among multi-agents. Most of the past research results are thus based on the probabilistic completeness. However, the practicality and effectiveness of the solution from the probabilistic completeness is significantly reduced by heavy computational burden. In this paper, we propose a practically applicable solution technique for multi-agent planning problems, which assures a reasonable computation time and a real world application for more than 3 multi-agents, for the case of general shaped paths in agent movement. First, to reduce the computation time, an extended collision map is developed and utilized for detecting potential collisions and obtaining collision-free solutions for multi-agents. Second, a priority for multi-agents is considered for successive and interactive modifications of the agent movements with lower priority. Various solutions using speed reduction and time delay of the relevant agents are investigated and compared in terms of the computation time. A practical implementation is finally provided for three different types of agents to emphasize the effectiveness of the proposed interactive approach to multi-agent planning problems.

Creating a new retailing environment to meet the seamless experience requirements of consumers is a challenge for Omnichannel-related businesses. Based on the "appraisal-emotion-response" chain, the purpose of this research is to explore the psychological mechanism of omnichannel integration influencing customer retention and the moderating effect of customer showrooming experience. This research uses a structural equation model in partial least square software to analyze a two-stage survey (Study 1: n = 210; Study 2: n = 342) conducted in China. The results show that channel control experience has three dimensions: perceived channel attribute familiarity, channel type matching, and cross-channel access convenience; consistent interactive experience has two dimensions: information cross-channel consistency and cross-channel service support. Furthermore, both channel control experience and consistent interactive experience are favorable for customer retention through increased customer satisfaction (transactional and retailer satisfaction). Finally, customer showrooming experience positively moderates the relationship between consistent interactive experience and customer satisfaction. This research proposes a self-regulation process model to explain how omnichannel integration enhances consumers' experience, finally leading to consumer retention. The findings contribute to the omnichannel retail business literature and provide management implications for Asian retailers to implement an omnichannel business strategy.

본 논문은 멀티캐스트 전송 네트워크 상에서 Head-End-Network(HNET) 및 BISM(Buffering algorithm for Interactive Services in Multicast)을 사용하여 VCR 서비스를 제공하는 대화형 VOD 시스템을 제안한다. HNET은 Switching Agent(SA)와 캐쉬를 적용한 Head-End-Nodes(HENs) 및 클라이언트로 구성되며, HENs는 SA의 제어하에 요청된 비디오 스트림을 분산저장하며, 클라이언트 버퍼는 다양한 VCR 재생률을 지원하기 위하여 BISM을 사용하여 동적으로 확장된다. 본 논문에서 대화형 VCR 서비스는 서버 또는 HENs에 의해 네트워크 상에 전송되는 비디오 스트림과 클라이언트 버퍼에 저장된 데이터만을 사용하여 제공된다. 그러므로 제안된 기술은 네트워크의 부하를 감소시킬 수 있으며, 서버로부터 불필요한 채널의 할당 및 중복된 비디오 컨텐츠의 전송을 제한하게 되어 시스템 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 제시한다.
