This paper proposes the controller for biped robot using intelligent control algorithm. In order to simplify the complexity of biped robot control, manipulator of biped robot is divided into four modules. These modules are controlled by intelligent algorithm with Hierarchical Mixture of Experts(HME) using neural network. Also neural network having direct control method learns the inverse dynamics of biped robot. The HME, which is a network of tree structure, reallocates the input domain for the output by learning pattern of input and output. In this paper, as a result of learning HME repeatedly with EM algorithm, the controller for biped robot operating safety walking is designed by modelling dynamics of biped robot and generating virtual error of HME.

This paper deals with implementation of network for distributed control system of a humanoid robot ISHURO(Inha Semyung Humanoid Robot). A humanoid robot needs much degree of freedom structurally and much data for having flexible movement. To realize such a humanoid robot, distributed control method is preferred to the centralized one since it gives a compactness, modularity and flexibility for the controllers. For organizing distributed control system of a humanoid robot, a control processor on a board is needed to individually control the joint motor and communication technology between the processors is required to transmit its information within control time. The processor is DSP-based processor and includes CAN network on a chip. It shares the computational load such as monitoring the sensor information and controlling the actuator between each of modules. In this paper, the communication architecture is suggested and its message protocol are discussed including message structure, time consumption for transmission, and controller structure at the view of distributed control for a humanoid robot. All of the sequence are simulated with Matlab and then verified with real walking experiment by ISHURO.

Innate immunity is the first line of host defense consisting of various molecules against infectious challenges. Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) belongs to the collectin protein family which takes part of innate immunity and is able to recognize specific carbohydrates on the surface of a variety of infectious agents acting as a pattern recognition molecule. In this way, MBL differentiates self from non-self and interacts with other molecules of the immune system. MBL genotype shows various MBL2 polymorphisms which are responsible for MBL deficiency in a substantial portion of the entire human population and for susceptibility to infectious disease. Therefore, it has been highlighted in the relationship between genetic variants and clinical significance. Here we focus on presenting anoverview of our understanding of MBL structure and functions.

This paper proposes the efficient method of CSMA during an idle duration in the time slot. The hybrid TDMA/CSMA protocol is the method that shares the medium efficiently. This improves the channel efficiency and throughput by using CSMA method during the idle TDMA time slot. In CSMA duration, many devices start to compete with each other. This causes a low throughput because of a long delay and a frequent collision. In order to improve this problem, the proposed method reduces the number of devices that compete in the CSMA duration. Because the number of competed device is reduced, this proposed algorithm reduces the delay and collision probability. This decrements of delay and collision probability improve the networks. The simulation results show that the proposed limitive CSMA methods outperform any methods of hybrid TDMA/CSMA protocol.

Many types of services appear in a ubiquitous environment promulgated by the evolution of web service technology with the advances in wireless network technologies and mobile computing devices. These services differ according to their location environments, such as home, office, airport, and exhibition. It is required that a different set of services dynamically drops into the mobile user's device depending on their context and the distributed localized services are efficiently managed to seamlessly provide these localized services to the user. This paper proposes an Autonomic Service Composition System (ASCS) to provide useful services to the user with minimal or no effort for service selection. ASCS seamlessly installs the programs of localized services in the user's mobile device. It automatically provides localized services to users that are in the local service zone. Also ASCS can manage distributed localized services remotely and efficiently. ASCS is composed of a Remote Manager, Service Gateway, and Mobile Device. The prototype implementation uses 802.11b Wireless Network and Bundles using the OSGi Framework.

In this paper. a CLB-based CPLD low power technology mapping algorithm for trade-off is proposed. To perform low power technology mapping for CPLD, a given Boolean network has to be represented to DAG. The proposed algorithm consists of three step. In the first step, TD(Transition Density) calculation have to be Performed. Total power consumption is obtained by calculating switching activity of each nodes in a DAG. In the second step, the feasible clusters are generated by considering the following conditions : the number of output. the number of input and the number of OR-terms for CLB within a CPLD. The common node cluster merging method, the node separation method, and the node duplication method are used to produce the feasible clusters. The proposed algorithm is examined by using benchmarks in SIS. In the case that the number of OR-terms is 5, the experiments results show reduction in the power consumption by 30.73$\%$ comparing with that of TEMPLA, and 17.11$\%$ comparing with that of PLAmap respectively

CSMA(Carrier Sense Multiple Access) is a media access control protocol when nodes use a shared channel. To reduce the probability of collision and increase the performance, the station lust checks the state of the channel. In this paper, we study the performance improvement method based on p-persistent strategy. The p-persistent method reduces the chance of collision and improves the efficiency. However, a probability p and the number of station affect the performance. This paper proposes a dynamic CSMA multiple access based on the network status. If the possibility of collision is low, the station increases the probability p to improve the performance. In the opposite case, the station decreases the probability p. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms any methods of CSMA multiple access according to the current persistent strategy.

In this paper, an energy harvesting scheme is applied in the cooperative communication. The proposed scheme uses an energy harvesting relay in which the relay harvests the energy from the source node and transfers to the power form in forwarding the received data to the destination node. The well-known maximal ratio combining (MRC) technique is applied to increase the diversity gain at the destination. Therefore, with applying the proposed energy harvesting scheme, the limited power at the relay is solved, and the operation efficiency of the network and the mobile devices is improved. Finally, performance of the proposed protocol is analyzed in terms of bit error rate, outage probability, power collection efficiency.
