This paper presents an integrated control module for controlling transportation machine and automatic navigation using a combined technology of mobile telematics and transportation machine telematics, i.e. Mobile In Vehicle (MIV). This development includes hardware implementation and its verification of control mechanism applied to vehicle. In particular, the module is designed to be versatile in such a way that it can collect various information and facilitate various options for convenience by supporting existing networks, such as TCP/IP, Wi-Fi and 3G mobile radio networks. The study offers its versatility, intelligence and cost-effectiveness by enabling the module to support network-independent service, whereas conventional modules operate only in a certain network. Based on this module, a multiple of subsequent convenient functions for transportation machine can further be developed for safe and intelligent transportation machines.

This paper aims at investigating the characteristics of soil deformation by finite element method (FEM) coupling the cap model with the multi.purpose program developed by authors for the analysis of foundation displacement. The cap model as the constitutive equation has proved to be very useful to a partially saturated roils as well as rocks with high accuracy. As described in the Previous Paper (Park et al 1987) , there exist some difficulties in the determination of soil parameters in order to use the cap model at Present. However the authors have been studying to seek the method for the determination of the soil parameters from the laboratory results of conventional cylindrical triaxial test. Though the computer program advocated by foreign scholars has been kept secret, authors accomplished in performing the FEM analysis by the algorithm and program developed by authors for the cap model. Good results are obtained compared with those published already by Desai(1981) The main conclusions analyzed are as follows: 1. The cap model can be coupled with the multi.purpose computer program of authors bases on the Biot's consolidation theory without loss of generality. 2. Big difference appears in the settlement of center of the embankment between the cap modes and the modified Cam clay model in undrained conditions. The more study on which is more accurate should be performed in this respect.

This paper presents the design and development of ECU simulator in order to verify automatic firmware update system of ECU SW on the vehicle. We designed and developed general-proposed ECU simulator as devide into HW and SW parts. HWadopt 32bit MPU, CAN, LIN, LCD, and touch-pad button to satisfy general-proposed ECU level. And SW constructed as finite-state-machine structure in order to support HW spec. We developed ECU manager which deliveries update data to verify validity of operation. And we tested ECU simulator with ECU manager. For test of validity of ECU simulator, we set 4 scenarios between ECU simulator and manager. As the result, we confirmed validity of operation in ECU simulator for automatic SW update system.

Field measured sediment yield from an experimental urbanized basin was compared with the predicted sediment yields with RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation), and MUSLE (Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation). The experimental basin is 3.1km2 in area and fifty six percent of the total area had been urbanized. The hydrological data have been measured with T/M at the outlet of the experimental basin. Runoff from the basin and rainfall depth of the basin were measured every minute. Bed load and suspended load were also measured for a given flow rate. Runoff rating curves and sediment rating curve were developed for the last three years. RUSLE showed scattered prediction results but the average of the prediction values was close to the measured one. Meanwhile, MUSLE showed linear correlation between the measured sediment yield and predicted one with high correlation coefficient. But MUSLE predicts high values than the real one. Therefore, adjustment is necessary to apply MUSLE in estimation of sediment yield from the experimental urbanized basin.

Assessment of soil erosion is a cost and time-consuming task. There are many models developed to predict soil erosion from an area, but Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is most widely used empirical equation for estimating annual soil erosion. Soil erosion depends upon-rainfall intensity, type of soil, land cover and land use, slope degree, slope length and soil conservation practice. All these parameters are have spatial distribution and hence satellite remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) are applicable in the assessment of the influence on soil erosion. GIS has been integrated with the USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation) model in identification of rainfall-based erosion to the Bocheong River which is the representative basin of IHP due to Typhoon Rusa. Similar studies are available in literature, ranging from those that use a simple model such as USLE to others of a more sophisticated nature.

An SDR (Software Defined Radio) system based on general purpose computing platform has benefits of ease of software development process, high degree of software compatibility, and cost-effectiveness of general purpose processors. This paper discusses design and implementation of a dual-mode SDR system that supports both cordless phone and walkie-talky system running on Linux-based general purpose computing platform. For this purpose, we designed modulation and demodulation software on open source-based GNU radio middleware. We also designed a customized RF front-end hardware which performs frequency conversion between RF and IF. The proposed SDR system successfully exhibited its ability to operate both cordless phone and walkie-talky communication on Intel processor-based general purpose computing platform. But experience with the prototype SDR system shows that further research is required for run-time software reconfiguration and efficient integration with conventional TCP/IP protocol stacks.

A variety of general purpose polymer products such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PVC), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS) and polyurethane (PU) are widely produced and used in the industrial field. Many industrial accidents have occurred due to fire and explosion at the manufacturing site. In order to prevent such accidents, it is important to collect and analyze accident cases that occurred in the past to identify the characteristics of accidents and to use them to prevent the same kind of accidents or similar accidents. In this study, the accident distribution characteristics of general polymer manufacturing process were examined by using SPSS based on the database of the industrial accident statistics system operated by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency. These results can be used to prevent accidents in the general-purpose polymer product process and ensure the safety of the process.

오늘날 생활환경에서 디지털 TV, 휴대용 단말기, 인터넷 셋톱박스 등 임베디드 시스템이 탑재된 정보가 전제품을 쉽게 찾아 볼 수 있다. 정보가전제품은 가전제품의 본래 기능뿐만 아니라 다른 정보가전제품과 상호 작용을 통한 인텔리전트한 기능의 수행이 요구된다. 이와 같은 인텔리전트한 기능을 수행하기 위해서는 단순한 기능만을 수행하는 펌웨어 수준의 임베디드 시스템이 아니라 다양한 기능을 수행하는 스마트 임베디드 시스템이 요구된다. 스마트 임베디드 시스템은 인텔리전트한 기능을 제공하기 위해서 네트워킹, 멀티프로세싱 등의 기능이 제공되는 범용 운영체제 수준의 성능을 가진 운영체제의 탑재가 요구된다. 그러나 이러한 범용 운영체제는 수십 초의 긴 부팅 시간을 요구함으로 이전의 파워온 (Power-On)과 동시에 사용할 수 있는 전통적인 가전제품이나 산업기계의 사용자에게는 매우 큰 불편을 초래할 수 있다. 특히 복잡한 공정을 수행하는 공장 산업기계의 임베디드 시스템은 shutdown 후 정상가동 까지 걸리는 시간이 제품 생산량 및 품질에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이와 같이 다양한 분야에서 적용된 스마트 임베디드 시스템의 부팅시간은 스마트 임베디드 시스템의 성능을 평가하는 중요한 요소가 된다. 본 논문은 임베디드 환경 하에 범용 운영체제인 리눅스를 활용하여 빠른 부팅을 구현하였다. 부팅 단계에서 영향을 미치는 부트로더, 커널 그리고 루트 파일시스템의 각 구성요소를 최적화하는 연구를 수행하였으며, 그 결과 HBE-EMPOS II 기준으로 부팅시간이 11초로 감소되는 성과를 얻었다.

Difficult problems In implementing digital neural network hardware are the extension of synapses and the programmability for relocating neurons. In this paper, the structure of a new hardware is proposed for solving these problems. Our structure based on traditional SIMD can be dynamically and easily reconfigured connections of network without synthesizing and mapping original design for each use. Using additional modular processing unit the numbers of neurons find synapses increase. To show the extensibility of our structure, various models of neural networks : multi-layer perceptrons and Kohonen network are formed and tested. The performance comparison with software simulation shows its superiority in the aspects of performance and flexibility.
