Server consolidation by sever virtualization can make one physical machine(PM) to run several virtual machines simultaneously. Although It is attractive in cost, it has complex workload behaviors. For that reason, efficient resource management method is required. Dynamic relocation of virtual machine(VM)[3,4] by live migration[1,2] is one of resource management methods. We proposed SCOA(Server Consolidation Optimizing Algorithm) : a fine-grained load balancing mechanism worked on this dynamic relocation mechanism. We could obtain accurate resource distribution information through pointed physical machines on multi dimensional resource usage coordination, so we could maintain more balanced resource state. In this paper, we show the effectiveness of our algorithm by comparison of experimental results between SCOA and sandpiper[3] by software simulation.

This thesis proposes a sigma-delta modulator architecture with 2 Ms/s data rate and 12 bit resolution. A sigma-delta modulate has the features of oversampling and noise shaping. With these features, it can be connected with low resolution A/D converter to achieve higher resolution A/D converter. Most previous researches have been concentrated on high resolution but low data rate applications, e.g. audio applications. But, in order to be applied to various applications such as wireless data communication, researches on sigma-delta modulator architecture for higher data rate are required. The proposed sigma-delta modulator architecture has the sampling rate of 16 times Nyquist rate to achieve high data rate, and consists of a cascade of two 2nd order sigma-delta modulator to get relatively high resolution. The experimental result shows that the proposed architecture achieves 12-bit resolution at 2 Ms/s data rate.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a client/server distributed environment and developed a web-based virtual laboratory system for electronic circuits. Since our virtual laboratory system is implemented to describe the on-campus laboratory, the learners can obtain similar experimental data through it. The proposed virtual laboratory system is composed of four important components : Principle Classroom, Virtual Experiment Classroom, Evaluation Classroom and Overall Management System. Through our virtual laboratory, the learners will be capable of learning the concepts and theories related to electronic circuit experiments and how to operate the experimental equipments such as multimeters, function generators, digital oscilloscopes and DC power supplies. Also, every experimental activity occurred in our virtual laboratory is recorded on database and printed out on the preliminary report form. All of these can be achieved by the aid of the Management System. The database connectivity on the web is made by PHP and the virtual labol'atory environment is set up slightly differently for each learner. Finally, we have obtained several affirmative effects such as reducing the total experimental hours and the damage rate for experimental equipments and increasing learning efficiencies as well as faculty productivity.

Recently, mean shift tracking algorithms have been proposed which use the information of color histogram together with some spatial information provided by the kernel. In spite of their fast speed, the algorithms are suffer from an inherent instability problem which is due to the use of an isotropic kernel for spatiality and the use of the Bhattacharyya coefficient as a similarity function. In this paper, we analyze how the kernel and the Bhattacharyya coefficient can arouse the instability problem. Based on the analysis, we propose a novel tracking scheme that uses a new representation of the location of the target which is constrained by the color, the area, and the spatiality information of the target in a more stable way than the mean shift algorithm. With this representation, the target localization in the next frame can be achieved by one step computation, which makes the tracking stable, even in difficult situations such as low-rate-frame environment, and partial occlusion.

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.

In this paper, we proposed a performance improvement method of the double talk detector which can operate before the echo canceller converges. Microphone input signal is filtered by the linear prediction filter and this filtered signal is used for detection. The coefficients of the linear prediction filter are given by the far-end talker signal. During single talk, filtered signal has low power since the characteristics of the echo signal is similar with those of the far-end talker signal. But, during double talk, the filtered signal does not have low power because the signal of different characteristics is included in the microphone signal. Double talk is detected by this difference. Simulations using real speech signals verified that the proposed method outperformed the conventional methods.

Generating test patterns for asynchronous sequential circuits remains to be a very difficult problem. There are few algorithms for this problem, and previous works cut feedback loops, and insert synchronous flip-flops in the feedback loops during ATPG. The conventional algorithms are similar to the algorithms for synchronous sequential circuits. This means that the conventional algorithms generate test patterns by modeling asynchronous sequential circuits as synchronous sequential circuits. So, test patterns generated by those algorithms nay not detect target faults when the test patterns are applied to the asynchronous sequential circuit under test. In this paper an algorithm is presented to generate test patterns for asynchronous sequential circuits. Test patterns generated by the algorithm can detect target faults for asynchronous sequential circuits with the minimal possibility of critical race problem and oscillation. And it is guaranteed that the test patterns generated by the algorithm will detect target faults.

We present the Multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing ultra-wideband (MB-OFDM UWB) technology for increasing the transmission reach of wireless speaker systems. The proposed scheme adopts the Reed-Solomon coding for preventing the random error perfectly and shows the SNR gain in low bit error rate (BER) especially. So, we can increase the maximum reach of MB-OFDM UWB technology since the receiver sensitivity is improved. The simulation environment includes most effects of realistic channel environments such as Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN), CM1 channel model, Sampling frequency offset (SFO), Carrier frequency offset (CFO) to improve the simulation accuracy. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can give a maximum 2 dB SNR gain and increase the transmission reach up to 12.6m.

In this paper, we propose a novel feeding method that uses a windshield ground in a vehicle. The feeding method enables for various antennas to integrate easily in a vehicle windshield. To connect a coaxial feeding cable directly to the windshield ground, we inserted a coaxial-to-ground adapter between the cable and the ground, and reflection coefficients using the proposed feeding method were compared to that using a conventional feeding method. The size and position of the windshield ground were optimized in order to achieve a high radiation gain in the azimuth direction. Then the triangular WiBro patch antenna, incorporating the proposed feeding method, was designed and installed on a rear windshield of a commercial sedan. The antenna using the proposed feeding method shows a similar reflection coefficient, and it shows 2 dB increased average azimuth radiation gain compared to that using a conventional sash ground method. These results demonstrate that the proposed feeding method can be applicable for integrating multiple antennas in a rear windshield.
