This paper presents a window-based load management system (LMS) package developed as a decision-making tool in the competitive electricity market. The presented LMS package can help the users to monitor system load patterns, analyze their past energy consumption and schedule the future energy consumption. The LMS package can also provide the effective information on real-time energy/cost monitoring, consumed energy/cost analysis, demand schedule and cost-savings. The developed LMS package can be used to establish the optimal demand schedule and consumption strategy.

In the present investigation, it was attempted to design the rolling pass schedule fur a clean steel of 0.1C-1.5Mn-0.25Si with the objective of the austenite grain refinement. As the method of approach, a coupled mathematical modeling technique was proposed which consists of a recrystallization model and a flow stress modes. The validity of the coupled model was examined through comparison with results of continuous and discontinuous compression tests at various temperatures, strains and strain rates. The coupled model was incorporated with the finite element method to set up a systematic design methodology far the rolling path schedule for austenite grain refinement. Two path schedules were obtained and discussed in the paper with regard to rolling path time, average grain size, grain size deviation in thickness, etc.

We consider an $M^x/G/1$ queueing system with Bernoulli vacation schedule under multiple vacation policy. where after each vacation completion or service completion the server takes sequence of vacations until a batch of new customer arrive. This generalizes both $M^x/G/1$ queueing system with multiple vacation as well as M/G/1 Bernoulli vacation model. We carryout an extensive analysis for the queue size distributions at various epochs. Further attempts have been made to unify the results of related batch arrival vacation models.

In order to tolerate faults which may occur during the execution of distributed tasks in high-performance parallel computer systems, tasks are duplicated on different processors. In this paper, by utilizing the task duplication based scheduling algorithm, a new task scheduling algorithm which duplicates each task on more than two different processors with the minimum schedule length is presented, and the number of processors required for the duplication is analyzed with the ratio of communication cost to computation time and the workload of the system. A simulation with various task graphs reveals that the number of processors required for the full-duplex fault-tolerant task scheduling with the obtainable minimum schedule length increases about 30% to 75% when compared with that of the task duplication based scheduling algorithm.

Most payments in domestic construction are issued in lumpsum unit price contracts according to the completed construction rate. This method generates problems in losing time and increased costs for the owner and contactor. In overseas projects, payments are issued in accordance to completed milestones. The milestones themselves base on the original schedule and allow effective schedule management on the tasks. In domestic construction, however, introduction of milestone payments requires enhanced management capability of owners and contractors. Hence, this study investigating how to activate schedule management devices to analyze progress payments in domestic construction.

Group scheduling is an operation whereby control packets arriving in a time slot schedule their bursts simultaneously. Normally, those bursts that are of the same wavelength are scheduled on the same channel. In cases where the support of full wavelength converters is available, such scheduling can be performed on multiple channels for those bursts that are of an arbitrary wavelength. This paper presents a new algorithm for group scheduling on multiple channels. In our approach, to reach a near-optimal schedule, a maximum-weight clique needs to be determined; thus, we propose an additional algorithm for this purpose. Analysis and simulation results indicate that an optimal schedule is almost attainable, while the complexity of computation and that of implementation are reduced.

In this paper, we study flowshop scheduling problems with availability constraints. In such problems, n jobs have to be scheduled on m machines sequentially under assumption that the machines are unavailable during some periods of planning horizon. The objective of the problem is to find a non-permutation schedule which minimizes the makespan. As a solution procedure, we propose an improved genetic algorithm which utilizes a look-ahead schedule generator to find good solutions in a reasonable time Computational experiments show that the proposed genetic algorithm outperforms the existing genetic algorithm.

This paper experimentally validates the efficacy of scheduling method that satisfies the performance requirement of periodic data in the Foundation Fieldbus. The scheduling method allocates periodic data traffic to a bandwidth-limited fieldbus medium. The scheduling method generates schedule list that records schedule starting time and schedule period of each periodic data. This study developed an experimental model of a Foundation Fieldbus network system. Using the experimental model, this study showed that the scheduling method can be easily implemented in a practical Foundation Fieldbus network system. The results obtained from the experimental evaluation showed that the scheduling method restricts the delay of periodic data to a pre-specified bound.

Schedule management of construction work is important in order to complete construction projects within a given period of time. Many efforts have been made and many tools have been developed in order to manage construction projects by a smart device such as smart phones and smart pads. This research proposed a basic design to manage construction schedules via a smart device using Flash. The interactive and graphic property of Flash enables a field manager to manage schedules easily and efficiently. A basic structure was designed for a user to be able to make and change a schedule by touching the smart device's screen. And a prototype was implemented by Adobe Flash/Flex Builder, it is applied to a sample network in a smart phone.

The exports of plywood are increasing annually and it has ranked first in the world market because of the high quality product and manufactured using mordern techniques. However, it is known that the exports of the other wood products, except plywood, is inactive because of their low quality. Accordingly, to increase the exports of various wood products investigations were carried out on kiln drying techniques to improve the quality of the wood. Wet wood should be kiln dried before use to prevent various drying defects such as distortion, shrinkage etc., which would develop after processing,:and also wet wood is not suitable for cutting, gluing and finishing. Therefore, the kiln drying properties of lumber from such species as oak, ramin and meranti which are used in large quantity for manufacturing exporting wood products have been studied. The results of the research are summarized as follows. (1) The end checks and the time for drying from initial moisture content of about 40 percent to 5 percent moisture content in ovendry were investigated as follows: (2) The kiln dried results, for 30mm stock, which are presented by using kiln schedule table 3 are as follows: (3) The kiln schedules for ramin, meranti and oak are given respectively as follows: Ramin kiln schedule: Table 17 and Table 18. Meranti schedule : Table 12. Oak schedule : Table 15.
