SRAM에서 쓰기 전력을 줄이기 위하여 소스 전압을 높인 메모리 셀을 이용한 저전력 SRAM을 제안하였다. 메모리 셀의 소스 전압을 GND에서 V/sub T/로 올리고 비트라인과 데이터버스의 프리차지 전압을 V/sub DD/에서 V/sub DD/-V/sub T/로 낮춤으로써 비트라인과 데이터버스의 스윙 전압을 줄였다. 이것은 면적의 증가와 속도 감소 없이 SRAM의 쓰기 전력을 크게 줄여준다. 8K×32비트의 SRAM이 0.25um CMOS 공정으로 제작되었다. 제작된 SRAM은 2.5V 전원과 300MHz 동작 주파수에서 쓰기 동작의 소모전력을 45% 줄였고, 최대 동작 주파수는 330MHz였다.

본 논문에서는 잡음 환경에서 단일 마이크로폰의 음성 향상에 대한 새로운 기법을 제시했다. 일반적으로 널리 알려진 스펙트럼 차감법에 근거한 음성 향상 기술은 신호 대 잡음비에 따른 스펙트럼 이득으로 표현된다. 대표적인 Ephraim과 Malah의 decision-directed (DD) 추정치는 잡음 구간에서 효율적으로 뮤지컬 잡음을 제거하지만 음성 구간에서는 이전 프레임의 음성 스펙트럼 성분에 더 큰 비중을 두기 때문에 a priori SNR의 프레임 지연이 발생한다. 따라서 DD에 의해 추정된 a priori SNR이 적용된 잡음 제거 이득은 현재 프레임보다 이전 프레임에 영향을 받으므로 음성 전이 구간에서 잡음 제거 성능을 저하시킨다. 본 논문은 DD의 가중치 파라미터에 Sigmoid Type의 함수를 적용하여 계산적으로는 간단하지만 효과적인 음성 향상 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 접근 방식은 DD의 주요 파라미터인 a priori SNR 지연의 문제점을 해결하면서 뮤지컬 잡음 제거에 우수한 DD의 이점은 유지한다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능은 다양한 잡음 환경에서 ITU-T P.862 Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ) 와 Mean Opinion Score (MOS). 그리고 음성 스펙트로그램 (Spectrogram)에 의해 평가했고 기존의 DD의 고정된 가중치 파라미터를 사용했을 때 보다 향상된 결과를 나타내었다.

본 논문에서는 DD(Direct-drive)의 기구로서 2자유도 평행링크 기구를 사용하였다. 평행링크 기구는 2개의 모터가 각각 기저부에 설치되어 있기 때문에 모터 자체의 질량이 다른 모터에 부하가 되지 않고, 링크의 수는 증가하지만 arm의 질량이 가볍게 되어, 링크 파라미터의 설정에 의하여 원심력 등의 비선형력이 없어지며 동시에 모터사이의 비간섭화를 실현할 수 있다. 그리고 평행링크 DD로븟 매니퓰레이터의 고정도 운전의 실현을 위하여 신경회로망을 이용한 학습제어계를 설계하여 학습속도의 개선과 함께 변화한 작업대상에의 적응력을 개선하기 위하여 신경회로망과 피드백제어기로 학습제어 알고리즘을 구성한다.

필드버스 시스템에서 필드기기를 제어전략에 맞게 제어시스템으로 통합하기 위해서는 기능 및 내부 파라미터가 기술되어 있는 DD(Device Description)를 구성 소프트웨어에 제공하여야 한다. 현재 DD는 DDL (Device Description Language)로 작성되며, IEC 61804-PART 2로 제정되어, 필드버스인 Profibus, Foundation Fieldbus, HART 시스템에서 사용하고 있다. 그러나 DD 기술은 필드버스에 종속적이며, 최근 많은 발전을 보이고 있는 산업용 이더넷 환경에 적합한 형식을 갖추고 있지 않다 따라서 본 논문에서는 필드버스에 종속적이지 않고, 산업용 이더넷 환경에 적합한 형식을 갖춘 XML(extensible Markup Language)를 이용하여 필드기기의 내부 기능 및 파라미터를 XDD(XML for Device Description)로 표현하고자 한다 또한 앞으로 산업현장에서 이더넷의 발전 가능성을 살펴봄으로써, 분산제어시스템에서 XDD의 적용 관한 향후 연구과제를 제시한다.

This paper examined the stability of high-dense dislocation substructures (HDDSs) associated with martensite laths in High Cr steels supposed to be used for FBR, based on a series of dislocation dynamics (DD) simulations. The DD simulations considered interactions of dislocations with impurity atoms and precipitates which substantially stabilize the structure. For simulating the dissociation processes, a point defect model is developed and implemented into a discrete DD code. Wall structure composed of high dense dislocations with and without small precipitates were artificially constructed in a simulation cell, and the stability/instability conditions of the walls were systematically investigated in the light of experimentally observed coarsening behavior of the precipitates, i.e., stress dependency of the coarsening rate and the effect of external stress. The effect of stress-dependent coarsening of the precipitates together with application of external stress on the subsequent behavior of initially stabilized dislocation structures was examined.

In this study, we propose a novel 8T ternary SRAM that can process three logic values (0, 1, and 2) with only two additional transistors, compared with the conventional 6T binary SRAM. The circuit structure consists of positive and negative ternary inverters (PTI and NTI, respectively) with carbon-nanotube field-effect transistors, replacing conventional cross-coupled inverters. In logic '0' or '2,' the proposed SRAM cell operates the same way as conventional binary SRAM. For logic '1,' it works differently as storage nodes on each side retain voltages of V_DD/2 and V_DD, respectively, using the subthreshold current of two additional transistors. By applying the ternary system, the data capacity increases exponentially as the number of cells increases compared with the 6T binary SRAM, and the proposed design has an 18.87% data density improvement. In addition, the Synopsys HSPICE simulation validates the reduction in static power consumption by 71.4% in the array system. In addition, the static noise margins are above 222 mV, ensuring the stability of the cell operation when V_DD is set to 0.9 V.

Device Description that is described as C-based DDL(Device Description Language) should be provided for the control system to use the progressive function of field device in the distributed control system. DD expresses field device function itself and parameter. DD is used to set a necessary function far a control strategy in the central control system. DD technology which was adopted as international standard IEC 61804-Part 2 is being used in PROFIBUS, Foundation Fieldbus and HART. However, the DD is dependent to the fieldbus and it doesn't have a suitable form in the industrial Ethernet. This paper presents the possibility of a change from EDD(Electronic Device Description) and GSD(General Slave Data) used for integrating field devices to XDD(XML for Device Description) and verifies it's effectiveness. Also, this paper presents research assignment on the XML application in the distributional system from now on by examining the possibility of Ethernet`s development in the industrial area.

Mast cells play an important role in allergic inflammation by releasing their bioactive mediators. The function of mast cells is enhanced by stimulation because of the induction of specific genes and their products. While many inducible genes have been elucidated, we speculated that a significant number of genes remain to be identified. Thus, we applied differential display (dd) PCR to establish a profile of the induced genes in bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) after they were co-cultured with 3T3 fibroblasts. To date, 150 cDNA fragments from the connective-type mast cells (CTMCs) were amplified. Among them, thirty cDNA fragments were reamplified for cloning and sequencing. The ddPCR strategy revealed that serine proteases were the most abundant genes among the sequenced clones induced during the maturation. Additionally, unknown genes from the co-culture of BMMCs with 3T3 fibroblasts were identified. We confirmed their induction in the CTMCs by Northern blot analysis and RT-PCR. Characterization of these induced genes during the maturation processes will provide insight into the functions of mast cells.

This work designs an eighteen-channel bidirectional Intensity Modulation with Direct Detection (IM/DD) Wavelength Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON) system. The proposed system meets the requirement of the ITU-T 5G fronthaul link suggested design in G-series Recommendations-Supplement 66. The newly designed system, with a 25Gb/s/λ data rate (450Gbps as a system capacity), has been tested and simulated using OptiSystem V.19 software. The system has been evaluated by the BER with respect to variable the optical span and CW laser power. Based on the ITU-T recommendations, the simulation results demonstrate that this system might be used as an F1 and as an Fx 5G fronthaul link for functional split choices starting from options 1 to 7a. These options are required under 25Gbps/λ for each upstream and downstream link direction. Furthermore, the proposed system utilized a bidirectional single-mode optical fiber within short optical spans of up to 10 km. The proposed system is characterized by a low-cost, simple, DSP-free and amplifier-free system with a reasonable system capacity.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the size and morphology of mandibular condyle and mandibular fossa between temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc displacement (DD) patients and healthy subjects using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Twenty healthy subjects and twenty TMJ DD patients participated in this study respectively. We made five measurements in mandibular condyle (medio-lateral dimension, antero-posterior dimension, condyle height, intercondylar distance and intercondylar angle) and two measurements in mandibular fossa (mandibular fossa depth and articular eminence angle) using CBCT image. Results: There was no difference between two groups in medio-lateral dimension. In case of antero-posterior dimension, average of healthy controls was larger than that of TMJ DD patients, but that was not significant statistically. There were no significant differences between two groups in condyle height. Comparing intercondylar distance and intercondylar angle between two groups, there was no significant difference between two groups. In comparison of mandibular fossa depth and articular eminence angle, there was no significant difference between two groups. Conclusions: We couldn't find any definite relationship between TMJ morphology and TMJ DD.
