Crane operation for transporting heavy loads causes swinging motion at the loads. This sway causes the suspension ropes to leave their grooves and leads to possibility of serious damages. Generally crane is operated by expert's knowledge. Therefore, a satisfactory control method to supress object sway during transport is indispensible. The dynamic behavior of the crane shows nonlinear characteristics. when the length of the rope is changed the crane is time varying system and the design of anti-sway controller is very difficult. In this paper, the nonlinear dynamic model for the industrial overhead crane is derived. and the feedback gain matrix based on the pole-placement method is proposed to supress the swing motion and control the position of the crane. The performance of the controller for the crane model is simulated on the personal computer.

The magnetic field at the surface of the Sun is concentrated in magnetic features that often have spatial extents of 100 km or less. The study of the fine scale structure of the Sun's magnetic field has been hampered by the limited spatial resolution of the available observations. This has recently changed thanks to various new high-resolution facilities, among them the SUNRISE observatory, built around the largest solar telescope to leave the ground, and containing two science instruments. SUNRISE successfully had its first long-duration science flight on a stratospheric balloon in June 2009 and a host of scientific results have been obtained from the data. After a brief introduction to the Sunrise mission, an overview of selected results obtained so far will be given. A reflight at higher solar activity is currently being prepared.

This study aims to suggest the alternative policies and practices which policy makers can introduce and enlarge for work-family balance of employees. For purpose, this study analyzed the regulation of work time and parental leave benefits of employees. And the results of major projects in family friendly support services were examined. Based on these assessment, this study suggested various flexible work arrangements, papa's quota system in parental leaves, various family leaves for family care, establishment of FFSC in every metropolitan area, diversification of consulting project, and enlarging of certification project on family friendly workplace.

Simple-closed expressions for approximate calculation of quality of service (QoS) metrics of isolated cell of wireless networks with either finite or infinite queues of both new and handover calls are developed. It is assumed that both kinds of calls might leave the system without receiving service if their waiting times exceed some threshold value. For the models with infinite queues of heterogeneous calls easily checkable ergodicity conditions are proposed. The high accuracy of the developed approximation formulas is shown. Results of numerical experiments are given.

This study deals with a type of vehicle routing problem faced by manager of some department stores during peak sales periods. The problem is to find a set of traveling paths of vehicles that leave a department store and arrive at a destination specified for each vehicle after visiting customers without violating time and capacity constraints. The mathematical model is formulated with the objective of maximizing the sum of the rewards collected by each vehicle. Since the problem is known to be NP-hard, a heuristic algorithm is developed to find the solution. The performance of the algorithm is compared with the optimum solutions obtained from CPLEX for small size problems and a priority-based Genetic Algorithm for large size problems.

There are many researches on visual languages, but the most of them are difficult to support various collaborative interactions on a distributed multimedia environment. So, this paper suggests a collaborative visual language for interaction between multi-users. The visual language can describe a conceptual model for collaborative interactions between multi-users. Using the visual language, generated visual sentences consist of object icons and interaction operators. An object icon represents a user who is responsible for a collaborative activity, has dynamic attributes of a user, and supports flexible interaction between multi-users. An interaction operator represents an interactive relation between multi-users and supports various collaborative interactions. Merits of the visual language are as follows: supporting of both asynchronous interaction and synchronous interaction, supporting flexible interaction between multi-users according to participation or leave of users, supporting a user oriented modeling, etc. For example, an application to a workflow system for document approval is illustrated. So we could be found that the visual language shows a collaborative interaction.

Handover is constantly a challenging issue in wireless networks. Most of the existing solutions are host-based, which are implemented on the wireless terminals and leave the decision making to the terminals. This paper studies the problem of network-based handover in the wireless networks with the constraints of low latency as well as low computational time. To address this problem, we employ the software-defined network (SDN) architecture to facilitate handover. According to the operational model of the SDN, we define a workflow for all involved network entities, and then design a framework implementing the workflow as a complete handover system. The proposed framework aims to establish a channel conveying the mobility-related information of devices and the context information of their vicinity from the switches/access routers to the controllers. Based on collected information, the controller can optimally execute the handover.

The aim of the paper is to use optimization and advanced numerical computation of a sail fiber-reinforced composite model to increase the performance of a yacht under wind action. Designing a composite-shell system against the wind is a very complex problem, which only in the last two decades has been approached by advanced modeling, optimization and computer fluid dynamics (CFDs) based methods. A sail is a tensile structure hoisted on the rig of a yacht, inflated by wind pressure. Our objective is the multiple criteria optimization of a sail, the engine of a yacht, in order to obtain the maximum thrust force for a given load distribution. We will compute the best possible yarn thickness orientation and distribution in order to minimize the total fiber volume with some displacement constraints and in order to leave the most uniform stress distribution over the whole structure. In this paper our attention will be focused on computer simulation, modeling and optimization of a sail-shape mathematical model in different regatta and wind conditions, with the purpose of improving maneuverability and speed made good.

D.C. traction systems can cause stray currents which could adversely affect both the railway concerned and outside installations, when the return circuit is not sufficiently insulated versus earth. As experience for several decades has not shown evident corrosion effects from a.c. traction systems and actual investigations are not completed, stary currents flowing from a d.c. traction system is issued. D.C. traction systems can cause stray currents can be corrosion and subsequent damage of metallic structures, where stray currents leave the metallic structures. There is also the risk of overheating, arcing and fire and subsequent danger to persons and equipment. Any provision employed to control the effects of stray currents be checked, verified and validated. Direct measurement of stray current is difficult and a provision employed to control the effects of stray currents is proposed.

Visitors to a Web site leave access logs documenting their activity in the site. These access logs provide a valuable source of information about the visitors' access patterns in the Web site. In addition to the pages that the user visited, it is generally possible to discover the geographical locations of the visitors. Web servers also records other information such as the entry into the site, the URL, the used operating system and the browser, etc. There are several Web mining techniques to extract useful information from such information and visualization of a Web log is one of those techniques. This paper presents a technique as well as a case a study of visualizing a Web log.
