Recently many efforts on the development of automatic processing system for delivery sequency sorting have been performed in ETRI, which requires the use of postal 4-state bar code system to encode delivery points. This paper addresses the issue on the extension of read range and the improvement of image processing method. For the improvement of image processing procedure, applied information acquisition method through basic two thresholds onto the horizontal axial line of gray image based on reference information of 4-state bar code symbology. Symbol values are computed after creating two threshold values based on the obtained information through search of horizontal axial values. The implementation result of 4-state bar code reader are obtained the symbol values within 30~60 msec (58,000~116,000 mail item/hour)without noise removal or image rotation in spite of the incline $\pm 45^{\circ}$.

우편물을 집배원이 배달하는 순서로 자동구분 처리하기 위한 요소기술 줌에서 4-state 바코드 시스템이 개발되고 있으며 우편번호, 배달순서코드, 고객정보 등이 적용될 예정이다. 기존의 고객 바코드 판독 시스템은 우편물상의 바코드 심볼로지가 존재하는 판독대상 영역의 기울기가 ${\pm}4.47^{\circ}$ 이하이고, 심볼의 훼손과 잡영이 없을 경우에 $79{\sim}100msec(35,000{\sim}45,000$통/시간)의 속도로 자동 구분 정보가 판독된다. 본 논문에서는 판독범위 및 판독성능을 개선을 위하여 CCD(Charge Coupled Device) 센서로부터 획득된 이미지상에서 존재하는 심볼로지 정보의 고속판독 방법을 제시한 것이다. 이 판독방법은 그레이(gray) 이미지 바탕면의 경계값(threshold) 기울기 분포를 기준으로 2개의 경계값을 설정하여 판독대상 정보를 획득하였다. 또한, 4-state 바코드 심볼로지의 존재 가능성 영역만을 탐색하고, 판독대상 영역에서 트래커(tracker)를 탐색하여 심볼로지의 기울기값, 심볼로지 경계값, 심볼위치 좌표값을 생성한 후 심볼값이 판독한 것이다. 판독시험 결과는 판독대상 영역의 심볼로지가 ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ 기울어지고, 잡영이 존재할 경우에도 $30{\sim}60msec(58,000{\sim}l16,000$통/시간) 이내에 판독되었다. 우편물 자동구분용 바코드 판독기로써 적용될 경우에 판독속도가 평균 57.25% 이상 개선되고, 판독범위의 확장으로 0.2%의 기계적인 오류(이송과정예서의 Jam 발생 비율)를 제외할 경우에 거의 99.8% 우편물을 판독하여 자동구분 처리할 수 있게 될 것으로 기대된다.onebook 엑세스 모들(Server Phonebook Access Module)로 구성되어 있다.외 보다 높았다(I/O ratio 2.5).

This paper proposes an efficient centralized sin91e buffer management algorithm to arbitrate access contention mon processors on the multi-processor system for high-speed Packet filtering and proves that the algorithm provides reasonable performance by implementing it and applying it to a real multi-processor system. The multi-processor system for parallel packet filtering is modeled based on a network processor to distribute the packet filtering rules throughout the processors to speed up the filtering. In this paper we changed the number of processors and the processing time of the filtering rules as variables and measured the packet transfer rates to investigate the performance of the proposed algorithm.

Traditional databases exploit a record-based model, where the attributes of a record are placed contiguously in a slow hard disk to achieve high performance. On the other hand, for read-intensive data analysis systems, the column-based compressed database has become a proper model because of its superior read performance. Currently, flash memory SSD is largely recognized as the preferred storage media for high-speed analysis systems. This paper introduces a compressed column-storage model and proposes a new index and its data management scheme for a high-capacity data warehouse system. The proposed index management scheme is based on the asymmetric index duplication and achieves superior search performance using the master index and compact index, particularly for large read-mostly databases. In addition, the data management scheme contributes to the read performance and high reliability by compressing the related columns and replicating them in two mirrored SSD. Based on the results of the performance evaluation under the high workload conditions, the data management scheme outperforms the traditional scheme in terms of the search throughput and response time.

Shack-Hartmann sensors are widely employed as a wavefront measuring device in various applications. Adaptive optics is one of the major applications. Since an adaptive optics system should be operated in real-time, high-speed wavefront sensing is essential. In high-speed operation, integration time of an image detector is very short. In this case, noises such as readout noise and photon noise greatly influence the accuracy of wavefront sensing. Therefore a fast and noise-insensitive centroid finding algorithm is required for the real-time wavefront sensing. In this paper, the multi-resolution correlation method is proposed. By employing multi-resolution images, this method greatly reduces the computation time when compared to the fast Fourier transform (FFT) correlation method. The verification is performed through the computational simulation. In this paper, the center of mass method, correlation method and multi-resolution correlation method are employed to compare the measurement accuracy of the centroid finding algorithms. The accuracy of a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor using the proposed algorithm is proved to be comparable to that of the conventional correlation method.

Purpose : To determine the diagnostic accuracy of four different sequences : moderately T2 weighted, two heavily T2-weighted single shot turbo spin-echo sequence and breath-hold axial-2D balanced turbo field-echo sequence(bFFE) for characterization of focal lesions. Materials and Methods : During the 3-month period between June and August 2005, seventy-six patients were proved to have ninety-three focal hepatic lesions on MR imaging. The patients consisted of 49 men and 27 women (age range, 15-75 years; mean age, 56.23 years). All MR images were acquired on a 1.5-T MR using the following sequences: 1. A breath-hold axial T2-weighted single shot turbo spin-echo sequence, 2. a breath-hold axial-2D balanced turbo field-echo sequence. Two radiologists performed quantitative analysis. Another radiologist measured the lesion-to-liver contrast-to-noise ratio at the region-of-interest in the four sequences. Results : There was no significant difference in inter-observer variability between the four sequences. The accuracy for both cyst and malignancy of moderate T2 weighted MRI (echo time: 80 msec) was also highest. There was significant difference for lesion characterization between moderate T2 weighted MRI and balanced steady state procession (p-value: 0.004) in the second reader. For longer echo time, the CNR of cystic lesions were markedly increased in comparison to lesions of other component. Conclusion : The accuracy and inter-observer variability of single shot turbo spin echo T2 weighted sequence was higher than bFFE. Although there was no statically significant difference, moderate T2 weighted MRI (echo time: 80 msec) was more accurate than heavily T2 weighted sequence (echo time: 300 msec). If the results for lesion characterization is equivocal in TE 80, the addition of heavily T2 weighted MRI (echo time: 180 msec) can be helpful.

현재 고속 판독률(fast-readout-rate)과 고밀도(high-capacity) 디지털 데이터 정보저장을 위해 불륨 홀로그래피(volume holography) 기술에 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 이러한 특징들은 다중 데이터 페이지(mulitple data page)들을 중첩(superposition)시킴으로서 이루어지며, 각각의 페이지들은 100만 픽셀이상의 정보를 가지고 page/msec의 속도로 병렬 엑세스가 가능하다. 최근 연구논문에서는 10,000 페이지의 충첩 홀로그램,$^{[1]}$ 데이터 추출을 위한 디지털 처리기술의 사용,$^{[2]}$ 광학적인 데이터 접근$^{[3]}$ , 박막 매질을 이용한 높은 면적 밀도(10bits/$mu extrm{m}$$^2$)$^{[4]}$ 등이 구현되었다. 그러나 이들 실험들은 대량의 병렬 데이터 페이지들의 실질적인 광-전 변환(optical-electrical conversion)을 구현하지 못해 고밀도와 빠른 접근 속도를 동시에 만족시키지 못하고 있다. 이러한 원인중에 하나로 출력의 CCD 픽셀 격자위에 입력의 SLM픽셀 격자를 정확하게 결상시키는데 어려움이 있기 때문이다.

간섭무늬기술을 효과적으로 사용하기 위하여, 간섭무늬 데이터를 빠르고 정확하게 간단히 줄여나가는 것이 필수적이다. 그러나, 심한 잡음이 존재할 때 현재 사용하는 방법을 적용하면 위상풀이에 오차가 생기거나, 무늬치수선정에 문제가 생겨, 근본적으로 대화식 수정작업이 필요하다. 결국 이러한 수동식 작업은 좀더 나은 완전한 자동해석을 위해 전문가시스템으로 대체할 수 있을 것이라 기대하여 왔다. 이 논문에서는 빠르고 기준 지식으로 조작할 수 있으며, 또한 유연성이 있는 새로운 통합 전문가시스템을 제시하였다. 이러한 조건을 만족 시키기 위해 고속 알고리즘에 적합한 C언어를 이용하여 전문가시스템의 쉘을 구성하였다. 이렇게 개발한 시스템이 간섭무늬해석의 전체 진행과정을 수행하게 하였다. 즉, 언어변환 해석을 하지 않고도 기준지식의 확보, 간섭 및 설명을 할 수 있으며 영상판독, 영상수정, 영상분할 및 형상추출 등을 수행하였다.

The column-oriented database storage is a very advanced model for large-volume data analysis systems because of its superior I/O performance. Traditional data storages exploit row-oriented storage where the attributes of a record are placed contiguously in hard disk for fast write operations. However, for search-mostly datawarehouse systems, column-oriented storage has become a more proper model because of its superior read performance. Recently, solid state drive using MLC flash memory is largely recognized as the preferred storage media for high-speed data analysis systems. In this paper, we introduce fast column-oriented data storage model and then propose a new storage management scheme using a cross compressed replication for the high-speed column-oriented datawarehouse system. Our storage management scheme which is based on two MLC SSD achieves superior performance and reliability by the cross replication of the uncompressed segment and the compressed segment under high workloads of CPU and I/O. Based on the results of the performance evaluation, we conclude that our storage management scheme outperforms the traditional scheme in the respect of update throughput and response time of the column segments.

MIP(Maximum Intensity Projection) is a volume rendering technique which is essential for the medical imaging system. MIP rendering based on the ray casting method produces high quality images but takes a long time. Our aim is improvement of the rendering speed using GPGPU(General-purpose computing on Graphic Process Unit) technique. In this paper, we present the ray casting algorithm based on CUDA(an acronym for Compute Unified Device Architecture) which is a programming language for GPGPU and we suggest new acceleration methods for CUDA. In detail, we propose the block based space leaping which skips unnecessary regions of volume data for CUDA, the bisection method which is a fast method to find a block edge, and the initial value estimation method which improves the probability of space leaping. Due to the proposed methods, we noticeably improve the rendering speed without image quality degradation.
