KISStool is developed and established by KIGAM, in order to link and share the earthquake data easily with institutes related, this study includes the development of a KISStool program format and protocol supporting Kit. The Kit has functions such as transforming and sending a seismic data. The functions of the kit are implemented in modules, which are running on the realtime basis. The firmware is embedded into the Kit, which transforms the seismic data into the formats, miniSEED and QSCD20. These data are sent to KISStool program. We have confirmed the results of the data transforming, transmissions and storage functions are conducted normally, the speed of transmission shows same level when comparing with a standard system. We expect that the firmware developed in this study will have high usability not only for linking with KISStool program through being embedded into incompatible digitizers, but also for improving performance of older ones.

Recently $Pok\acute{e}mon$ GO implements an online game with location-based real time augmented reality on mobile. The correct play of this game should be based on collecting the $Pok\acute{e}mon$ that appears as the user moves around by foot, but as the popularity increases, it appears an abuse to play easily. Many people have used an application that provides a mock location service such as Fake GPS, and these applications can be judged to be cheating in online games because they can play games in the house without moving. Detection of such cheating from a client point of view (mobile device) can consume a large amount of resources, which can reduce the speed of the game. It is difficult for developers to apply detection methods that negatively affect game usage and user's satisfaction. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a method to detect users abusing mock location service in online game by route analysis using GPS location record from the server point of view.

There have been researches on game continuance intention based on consumer behaviour theory of management science. Such macro access of computer game analysis might be insufficient to draw valuable results due to complex subsystem structure of recent computer games. In this paper, we choose 'Blade and Soul' game that was first published in 2012 and has been within top 20 MMORPG in Korea but known as a 'long time users' only game'among game players recently. Three user groups - long loyalty, concentrated, casual - are classified based on their play history and play time per day of Blade and Soul. The first survey with 222 subjects revealed that the real strength of the game was not the combat - Dungeon, Arena, Battleground competition - but very cohesive game community Blade and Soul has. Thus, we conduct another survey on the game community issues among 148 long time users (over 3 years playing history) and analyze their traits and behaviour patterns.

Flash memory is widely used as a storage device for potable equipments such as digital cameras, MP3 players and cellular phones because of its characteristics such as its large volume and nonvolatile feature, low power consumption, and good performance. However, a block in flash memories should be erased to write because of its hardware characteristic which is called as erase-before-write architecture. The erase operation is much slower than read or write operations. FTL is used to overcome this problem. We compared the performance of the existing FTL algorithms on Windows-based OS. We have developed a tool called FTL APAT in order to gather I/O patterns of the disk and analyze the performance of the FTL algorithms. It is the log buffer scheme with full associative sector translation(FAST) that the performance is best.

Branch prediction accuracy is critical for system performance in modern microprocessor architectures. The use of speculative update branch history provides substantial accuracy improvement in branch prediction. However, speculative update branch history is the information about uncommitted branch instruction and thus it may hurts program correctness, in case of miss-speculative execution. Therefore, speculative update branch history requires suitable recovery mechanisms to provide program correctness as well as performance improvement. In this paper, we propose recovery logics for speculative update branch history. The proposed solutions are recovery logics for both global history and local history. In simulation results, our solution provides performance improvement up to 5.64%. In addition, it guarantees the program correctness and almost 90% of additional hardware overhead is reduced, compared to previous works.

The service handling the map data in the mobile device including navigation, LBS, Telematics, and etc., becomes various. The size of map data which is stored and managed in the mobile device is growing and reaches in several GB. The conventional navigation system has used the read-only PSF (physical storage format) in order to enhance the performance of system by maximum in the mobile device which has limited resources. So though a little part of the map data is changed the whole data must be updated. In general, it takes several ten minutes to write the 2 GB map data to a flash memory of mobile device. Therefore, we have developed the mobile spatial DBMS (database management system) to solve the problem which is that the partial map data couldn't be updated in the conventional navigation system. And we suggest the policy to guarantee the performance of the navigation system which is implemented using the spatial mobile DBMS and verify this by experiment.

Checkpointing is an effective mechanism that allows a process to resume its execution that was discontinued by a system failure without having to restart from the beginning. Especially, page-level incremental checkpointing saves only the modified pages of a process to minimize the checkpointing overhead. This means that in incremental checkpointing, the time consumed for checkpointing varies according to the amount of modified pages. Thus, the efficient interval of checkpointing must be determined on run-time of the process. In this paper, we present an efficient and adaptive page-level incremental checkpointing facility that is based on the cost analysis of process execution time. In our simulation, results show that the proposed mechanism significantly reduced the average process execution time compared with existing fixed-interval-based page-level incremental checkpointing.

Liquefied petroleum gas is regarded as a promising alternative fuel as it is eco-friendly, has good energy efficiency and output performance, practically and has high cost competitiveness over competing fuels. In spark-ignition engine, direct injection technology improves engine volumetric efficiency apparently and operates engine using the stratified charge that has relatively higher combustion efficiency. This study designed a combustion chamber equipped with visualization system by applying gasoline direct injection engine principle. In doing so, the study recorded and analyzed ignition probability and flame propagation process of spark-ignited direct injection LPG in a digital way. The result can contribute as a basic resource widespread for spark-ignited direct injection LPG engine design and optimization extensively.

The GPS signal delays in troposphere, which are along the signal path between a transmitting satellite and GPS permanent station, can be used to retrieve the precipitable water vapor. The GPS remote sensing technique of atmospheric water vapor is capable of monitoring typhoon and detecting long term water vapor for tracking of earth’s climate change. In this study, we analyzed GPS precipitable water vapor variations during the heavy snowstorm event occurred in the Yeongdong area, 2014. The results show that the snowfall event were occurring after the GPS precipitable water vapor were increased, the maximum fresh snow depth was recorded after the maximum GPS precipitable water vapor was generated, in Kangneug and Wuljin, respectively. Also, we analyzed that the closely correlation among the GPS precipitable water vapor, the K-index and total index which was acquired by the upper air observation system during this snowstorm event was revealed.
