  • In this paper, we present an analytic model that evaluates the performance of B-MAC protocol under contention transmission conditions of two senders in a single-hop wireless sensor network. Our model considers the impact of several important factors such as sleep cycle, the backoff mechanism and incoming traffic loads. After obtaining the service delay distribution of a sending node and expected delay of a receiving node, an iterative algorithm is presented for calculating the performance measures such as expected energy consumption usage per packet and latency. Simulation results show that the proposed analytic model can accurately estimate the performance measures under different traffic conditions.

  • As can be seen by the fact that 96% of foreign visitors to Korea travel by air, governments across Asia are aware of the importance civil aviation has in a country's economical developlment, and are fiercely investing in infrastructure and systems which could help set the ground for a hub strategy, catching the profits generated from air travel. In the case of Incheon Internation Airport (IIA), Chinese passengers have outnumbered Japanese passengers using IIA. Considering the potential growth of the Chinese air transport market, there is the growing need for thorough research regarding Chinese passengers. Surveys for the following study were distributed between September 2015 and October 2015, which includes Chinese holidays. Surveys were distributed to Chinese transfer passengers, with questions related to airport service and facility usage.

  • The aim of this paper was to study the effect of five different waste combinations (C/N 15, C/N 20, C/N 25, C/N 30, and control) of sewage sludge coupled with sawdust and cattle manure in a pilot scale rotary drum reactor, during 20 days of the composting process. Our results showed that C/N 30 possesses a higher temperature regime with higher % reduction in moisture content, total organic carbon, soluble biochemical oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand; and higher % gain in total nitrogen and phosphorus at the end of the composting period implying the total amount of biodegradable organic material is stabilized. In addition, $CO_2$ evolution and oxygen uptake rate decreased during the process, reflecting the stable behavior of the final compost. A Solvita maturity index of 8 indicated that the compost was stable and ready for usage as a soil conditioner. The results indicated that composting can be an alternate technology for the management of sewage sludge disposal.

  • Mulberry (Morus spp.) is an economically important tree crop being cultivated in India, China and other sericulturally important countries for its foliage to feed the silk producing insect Bombyx mori L. Genetic improvements of mulberry lag behind to the same in many other economically less important crops due to the complexity of its genetics, the breeding behavior, and the lack of basic information on factors governing important agronomic traits. In this review, the general usage and advantages of different molecular markers including isoenzymes, RFLPs, RAPDs, ISSRs, SSRs, AFLPs and SNPs are described to enlighten their applicability in mulberry genetic improvement programs. Application of DNA markers in germplasm characterization, construction of genetic linkage maps, QTL identification and in marker-assisted selection was also described along with its present status and future prospects.

  • As the population of persons and automobiles rapidly grows, parking problems also grow in large cities of Korea. The purpose of this paper is to first grasp the status of parking facilities and characteristics in large cities of Korea; and introduce new directions of CBD parking policies in north America cities: and finally recommend the adequate parking management strategies and tactics for improving parking problems in Korea. For this purpose, field survey for parking inventories, patrol survey for parking usage as observed demand and drive interview survey for parking behavior were conducted. Compared with the parking characteristics and polices of foreign cities, many differences of characteristics were found, and existing parking management policies, which should be improved, were identified. Five categories of parking management strategies were set on; a) Reasonable control of CBD parking demand, b) securing of the public parking facilities c) Promotion of privately operated parking facilities d) expansion of financial resources for parking facilities construction and e) Improvement of existing parking management system. And actural seventeen tactics to attain the above strategies were recommended.

  • A single mode fiber-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometer for the measurement of strain is described. A fiber-optic strain gauge with great resolution and wide measurement range is realized. In order to varify the dynamic response, the measurements of strain below 1涅 with frequency range 5-50Hz are compared with a semiconductor strain gauge. We report theoretical evaluation for mechanical analysis, PZT-plate, the phase change in a fiber-optic strain gauge and a semiconductor strain gauge. The dynamical characteristics of a fiber-optic strain gauge and a semiconductor strain gauge output siganl show equivalent behavior. This result is shown in very good usage as the dynamical measurement of the low strain below 1涅 by this system.

  • Today, executives in the company operate their organizations under highly competitive environments with dynamic technological, economic, and political changes. Under these new environment changes, they play the important role in establishing the future directions and strategic orientations of organizations. In general, executive information systems (EIS) are designed to support these roles of executives. They can help executives access and use the information they require about the organization's internal and external environments. In spite of such potential EIS support for executives, only a limited number of empirical studies have been published in this area. by employing a well-established theory of computer usage behavior (Technology Acceptance Model : TAM), this study systematically investigates the key factors in the successful utilization of an EIS. The empirical results from this study may prove useful for both IS researchers and practitioners.

  • Cyberloafing is as counterproductive behavior because it is the act of using internet for personal purposes which can affect employees' productivity, especially when done excessively (more than 4 hours a week). The objective of this study was to analyze whether gender and education level had significant effect on cyberloafing among generations in the workplace. From 267 respondents, gender was not found to have impact on cyberloafing because female and male respondents had the same frequency of low level cyberloafing. However, female had higher excessive cyberloafing than male. Gen Y had significant impact on the relationship between education and cyberloafing but Gen Y with diploma degree was revealed to have excessive cyberloafing. Furthermore, Gen X had started combining professional and personal lives throughout their daily lives. Hence, organizations should foster a culture of hard work by giving challenging job with clear target and worthy incentive but still implementing internet usage policy.

  • Neural network minimization problems are often conditioned and in this contribution way to handle this will be discussed. It is shown that a better conditioned minimization problem can be obtained if the problem is separated with respect to the linear parameters. This will increase the convergence speed of the minimization. One of the most powerful uses of neural networks is in function approximation(curve fitting)[1]. A main characteristic of this solution is that function (f) to be approximated is given not explicitly but implicitly through a set of input-output pairs, named as training set, that can be easily obtained from calibration data of the measurement system. In this context, the usage of Neural Network(NN) techniques for modeling the systems behavior can provide lower interpolation errors when compared with classical methods like polynomial interpolation. This paper solve of single-variable minimization using neural network.
