This study is concerned with the loading problems in flexible manufacturing system(FMS). The loading problem in FMS is a complex one, when the number of machine and job is increased. It may be time-consuming and even impossible to achieve an optimal solution about this problem mathematically. Thus, a heuristic method is recommended in order to gain near-optimal solutions in a practically acceptable time. A new loading algorithm is developed with a multi-criterion objective of considering the workload unbalance, and maximizing the machine utilization, throughput for critical resources such as the number of tool slots and the number of working hours in a scheduling period and so on. The results of SAS analysis indicated that true average throughput of proposed heuristic loading statistically exceeds that of Shanker and Srinivasulus loading algorithm at the significance level of 0.1.

본 연구는 디스플레이 제품의 OSD(On Screen Display) 메뉴의 문자 오류 검사 과정을 자동화하는 방법과 FMM 신경망을 이용한 실시간 문자인식 방법을 제안한다. 이는 일반적인 문자인식 문제와는 달리 시스템 환경에 대한 몇 가지 가정과 제약조건을 고려해야 한다. 예컨대 문제의 특성상 카메라 및 TV제어 기기부의 동작과 연동하는 작업 스케줄링 기능과 실시간 분석기능 등의 요건은 시스템개발을 복잡하게 하는 반면, 주어진 OSD 메뉴 데이터로부터 검증과정은 미지 패턴에 대한 인식과정을 단순화하여 일종의 판정(decision) 문제로 고려될 수 있게 한다. 본 연구에서는 디스플레이 제품의 OSD 메뉴와 같이 특수한 구조를 갖는 문서영상에 대한 논리적인 구조분석을 통해서 연속적인 문서영상을 발생시켜서 검증과정을 자동화하는 작업스케줄링 방법을 제안하고 인식의 방법론으로서 수정된 구조의 FMM신경망을 적용한다. 또한 실제 데이터를 사용한 실험결과를 통해 시스템의 유용성을 고찰한다.

This thesis reports the development of a Computer-Aided Process Planning system for rotational parts. The developed system ultimately generates process plans for rotational parts through a knowledge-base. The knowledge-base and decision-making algorithms are represented by Pascal computer programming language. We have developed a process planning system which adjusts the sequence of processes by itself to ensure the quality of the parts. This system generates more detailed job sequence and descriptions than other well-known process planning systems. We present realistic and efficient process plans through the integration of process planning and scheduling. This system optimizes flow time of parts by decreasing the number of machine set-ups.

One form of job shop scheduling problem in contemporary automated manufacturing such as flexible manufacturing systems (FMS's) is presented which we call the FMS dispatching priority problem. The FMS dispatching priority problem seeks the best dispatching priority of parts and operations, and is essentially a combinatorial optimization problem. Because of the complicated mechanism of the system, the performance of a given dispatching priority must be evaluated via simulation. Simulated annealing have been applied to the problem, and it is found that appropriate parameter setting will be desirable to get good, if not the optimal, solutions within a limited amount of time under the presence of heavy computational burden due to simulation. More specifically, experiments reveal that initial temperature is the single most important factor among other parameters and factors, and that the appropriate initial temperature depends on the allowable computer time in such a way that the less time one can afford to spend, the lower the appropriate initial temperature should be.

The radio resources available in a wireless network system are limited. Therefor, job of managing resources is not easy task. Because the resources are shared among the UEs that are connected, the process of assigning resources must be carefully controlled. The packet scheduler in an LTE network is in charge of allocating resources to the user equipment (UE). Femtocells networks are being considered as a promising solution for poor channel performance for mulitple environments. The implementation of femtocells into a macrocell (traditional base station) would boost the capacities of the cellular network. To increase femtocells network capacity, a reliable Packet Scheduler mechanism should be implemented. The Packet Scheduler technique is introduced in this paper to maximize capacity of the network while maintaining fairness among UEs. The proposed solution operates in a manner consistent with this principle. An analysis of the proposed scheme's performance is conducted using a computer simulation. The results reveal that it outperforms the well-known PF scheduler in terms of cell throughput and average throughput of UEs.

그리드 컴퓨팅은 분산된 자원을 하나로 묶어 거대한 시스템을 구성하며 자원을 공유하여 성능을 높이고 비용을 절감 할 수 있는 시스템이다. 그리드 컴퓨팅 환경에서 사용되는 노드는 높은 성능을 가지고 있지만 단일 운영체제가 모든 하드웨어 자원을 제어하기 때문에 작업 진행시 부하가 높을 때 유휴자원을 쉽게 활용 할 수 없는 문제점이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 서버에 가용된 자원을 효율적으로 사용 할 수 있도록 가상화를 적용하고 구성된 가상환경에 작업 스케줄링을 대행 할 수 있는 마스터노드를 이용하는 작업 스케줄링을 제안한다.

As General Purpose Graphics Processing Unit (GPGPU) recently plays an essential role in high-performance computing, several cloud service providers offer GPU service. Most cluster orchestration platforms in a cloud environment using containers allocate the integer number of GPU to jobs and do not allow a node shared with other jobs. In this case, resource utilization of a GPU node might be low if a job does not intensively require either many cores or large size of memory in GPU. GPU virtualization brings opportunities to realize kernel concurrency and share resources. However, performance may vary depending on characteristics of applications running concurrently and interference among them due to resource contention on a node. This paper proposes GPU container co-execution framework with multiple server creation and execution based on Kubernetes, container orchestration platform for measuring interference which may be occurred by sharing GPU resources. Performance changes according to scheduling policies were investigated by executing several jobs on GPU. The result shows that optimal scheduling is not possible only considering GPU memory and computing resource usage. Interference caused by co-execution among applications is measured using the framework.

Petascale systems(so called supercomputers) have been mainly used for supporting communication-intensive and tightly-coupled parallel computations based on message passing interfaces such as MPI(HPC: High-Performance Computing). On the other hand, computing paradigms such as High-Throughput Computing(HTC) mainly target compute-intensive (relatively low I/O requirements) applications consisting of many loosely-coupled tasks(there is no communication needed between them). In Korea, recently emerging applications from various scientific fields such as pharmaceutical domain, high-energy physics, and nuclear physics require a very large amount of computing power that cannot be supported by a single type of computing resources. In this paper, we present our HTCaaS(High-Throughput Computing as a Service) which can leverage national distributed computing resources in Korea to support these challenging HTC applications and describe the details of our system architecture, job execution scenario and case studies of various scientific applications.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the major trends of research in the Journal of Korean Nursing Administration from 2007 to 2009. Method: Research designs, participants, research domains, and key words were analyzed from the Journal of Korean Nursing Administration. Results: Job satisfaction, organizational commitment, job stress, turnover intention, nursing performance, self-efficiency, leadership, empowerment, nursing informatics, and quality control were the major key words commonly listed in the journal articles. Of the research in the Nursing Administration Journal, quantitative methods were used in 94.5% of the research studies and qualitative methods in only 5.5%. The major participants in the research were nurses, nurse managers, and patients. Statistical methods like ANOVA, correlation, t-test, regression, chi-square test, LISREL were the dominant method of analysis used in the research. The primary domains in the journal articles were directing, organizing, control, planning, and informatics. Conclusion: Through this study, the trend of research in nursing administration can be identified. We recommend that collaboration, nurse work environment, evidence-based practice, scheduling, coaching, patient falls and safety, and positive culture should be included as topics for the future research.
