In this paper, a complexity-balancing algorithm is proposed for distributed video coding based on entropy coding. In order to reduce complexity of DVC-based decoders, the proposed method employs an entropy coder instead of channel coders and the complexity-balancing method is designed to improve RD performance with minimal computational complexity. The proposed method performs motion estimation in the decoder side and transmits the estimated motion vectors to the encoder. The proposed encoder can perform more accurate refinement using the transmitted motion vectors from the decoder. During the motion refinement, the optimal predicted motion vectors are decided by the received motion vector and the predicted motion vectors and complexity load of block is allocated by adjusting the search range based on the difference between the received motion vector and the predicted motion vectors. The computational complexity of the proposed encoder is decreased 11.9% compared to the H.264/AVC encoder and that of the proposed decoder are reduced 99% compared to the conventional DVC decoder.

Antenna selection based MIMO schedulers are proposed to achieve the optimal performance with low complexity in uplink multiuser MIMO/FDD system. In this paper, three heuristic schedulers are proposed to approach the optimal performance which is achieved by the optimal Brute-Force Scheduler. Two search methods called sub-set and full-set way are also discussed to set up the antenna channels to be the candidates of the scheduler. Simulation results show that the sum rate and BER performance of the proposed CSS and SOAS schemes are about the same to that of the brute-force scheduler with affordable complexity, while RC-SOAS with further reduced complexity achieves almost the optimal performance in the case of small number of antennas. Moreover, the complexity can be additionally reduced by the sub-set search method when the number of transmit and receive antennas are 2 respectively, which is applicable in the realistic systems.

Emergent process or behaviour can be seen in many places, from any multicellular biological organism to traffic patterns, cities or organizational phenomena in computer simulations. Similarly, the concept of 'Green IT' refers to the way complex systems and patterns arise inevitably among groups due to environmental concerns in real world. Green IT has good possibility to evolve as very chaotic system, in which the number of interactions between components increases geometrically with the number of components, thus potentially allowing for many new types of behaviour to emerge. However, when Green IT system regards as a complexity one, there exits some attractors to derive and control the system. In this context, this paper presents a new model based on type-2 fuzzy logic system to identify and assess the attractors of Green IT system which correspond to Reach-Richness matrix of Green IT.

In this paper, we propose an efficient joint demodulation and decoding scheme for FTN (Faster than Nyquist) systems. Several previous works have demonstrated that ISI (Inter Symbol Interference) cancellation schemes based on BCJR (Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv) algorithm are suitable for FTN systems. Unfortunately, required complexity of the previous ISI cancellation schemes is very high, especially when a multi-level modulation scheme is employed. In this paper, we propose a joint demodulation and decoding scheme for FTN systems with an iteratively decodable channel coding scheme and a multi-level modulation. Compared with the previously proposed schemes, the proposed scheme not only offers reliable performance but also requires relatively low complexity. Also, the proposed scheme can be easily applied to the FTN system with a multi-level modulation with a minor modification.

The present study investigated the tracking system of a reflector to trace the movement of sun. The system was designed to minimize the error between the vertical vector of reflector and the position of sun. The proposed system was able to collect the sun lights at a point as a useful source of light energy and transmit the collected light to a remote area through optical fibers. Also the study successfully solved the controller design problem due to the complexity of modeling of the sun tracking system using a fuzzy logic controller which mimics human reasoning.

OFDM systems are very sensitive to the frequency offset. Therefore, frequency offset estimation is one of the most important procedures in OFDM systems. Ren's periodogram-based frequency offset estimation scheme consists of three steps which estimates the frequency offset accurately. However, there are the drawbacks of the limited frequency offset estimation ranges in the second and third estimation steps of the Ren's scheme. This ranges are insufficient compared with the overall signal bandwidth, making the high complexity of the first estimation step. In this paper, we propose a novel lower complexity frequency offset estimation scheme for OFDM systems which extends the frequency offset estimation range. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme has a wider frequency offset estimation range and lower complexity than those of the Ren's scheme.

We consider an OFDM based multiple AF relaying systems. Since the channel between first hop (source station-relay station) and second hop (relay station -destination station) varies independently, the subcarrier in the first hop can be paired to another subcarrier in the second hop for the increase of the system capacity. The conventional pairing which uses the brute force searching requires large complexity while giving optimal pairing for maximum system capacity. In this paper, we present sub-optimal subcarrier pairing scheme with low complexity. Every RS firstly pairs the subcarrier with the highest channel gain in the first hop to the subcarrier with highest channel gain in the second hop. The pair with the highest SNR among all the pairs is determined as final selected pair and the corresponding subcarriers are not selected at other RSs in the next paring iteration. This process is repeated until all the subcarriers are paired. Simulation results show the proposed pairing scheme achieves near optimal performance with low complexity.

Partial response maximum-likelihood (PRML) and fixed-delay tree search with decision feedback (FDTS/DF) yield a sub-optimum performance in storage systems. However, they suffer from the inevitable complexity problems. this paper focuses on detection schemes to overcome the drawbacks of the sequence detections by exploiting minimum run-length d=2. It is expected that the proposed systems yield substantial reductions of both processing speed and receiver complexity. When combined with a decision feedback equalization (DFE), they prove to keep pace with the FDTS/DF with ${\tau}$=2 and even outperform the PR(1111)ML at normalized density S>5.6.

이제까지의 생산 시스템 컨트롤은 여러 개의 계층을 통해 상위 컨트롤러가 하위의 컨트롤러를 관리하는 계층적/감독(hierarchical$^{ervisory}$)컨트롤 방식이 일반적이었다. 그러나 생산 시스템의 규모가 증가하고, 이를 운용하는 컨트롤 소프트웨어가 복잡해짐에 따라 전통적인 계층적/감독 컨트롤 방식은 몇 가지의 문제점을 가지게 되었다. 첫째, 계층간의 관리 구조가 복잡해짐에 따라 현장의 생산 정보가 의사결정을 하는 상위의 시스템에 즉시 전달되지 못한다. 이는 실시간 의사결정이 필요한 많은 컨트롤 문제를 야기시킨다. 둘째, 생산시스템의 레이아웃 및 운영 방식에 변화가 생겼을 때 컨트롤 소프트웨어를 신속히 수정하기가 어렵다. 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위한 방법으로 수평적/협동(heterarchical/cooperative) 컨트롤 방식이 제시된다. 이는 신속한 의사결정과 변화에 따른 수정이 용이하도록 가공, 조립, 물류등 생산 시스템의 여러 단위 요소의 자율적인 컨트롤러가 계층이 없이, 서로 동등한 입장에서 협동을 통해 컨트롤이 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 수평적/협동 컨트롤 방식하에서 조립 시스템이 가져야 할 기능과 컨트롤 방법을 제시한다. 아울러, 조립 시스템 컨트롤러가 다른 컨트롤러들과 교환하는 정보 및 컨트롤 대상을 규명한다.
