서브타이틀 데이터는 비트맵으로 된 텍스트로 MPEG-2 전송 스트림형식으로 전송된다. 본 논문에서는 셋톱박스(SetTopBox)에 사용되는 서브타이틀 분석기를 구현하는데 필요한 표준 기술을 분석하고, 윈도우 환경에서 사용가능 한 응용프로그램을 구현하는 방법을 제안한다. 특히 DVB-T용으로 제한하여 디스플레이 크기는 표준인 $720{\times}576$이다. 실제 유럽에서 방송되던 스트림을 가지고 테스트해본 결과 성공적으로 처리함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we present the result of an efficient implementation of DirectX-based multichannel visual monitoring system and the performance analysis of it. Our proposed system mainly consists of three subsystems: display, storage, and retrieval/playback. The display subsystem is designed to utilize efficiently H/W acceleration, overlay and flip of DirectX for faster real-time display, display synchronization among channels, and improvement of tearing artifact. For the performance improvement of storage speed, the storage subsystem is designed and implemented in DirectShow Filter-based multithreading architecture so that it can store multichannel video streams efficiently in each channel with minimizing data bottleneck among channels. In the retrieval and playback subsystem, efficient index file architecture and video data storage architecture, efficient playback architecture which can make playback be processed parallel among channels are designed and implemented for faster retrieval and playback,. Through experiments, our proposed system is shown to be maximally 2 times as fast in storaging speed and maximally 3.5 times as fast in retrieval and playback speed as the previous system.

This study was attempted to check period of a fashion cycle and to suggest its main-stream and sub-stream by analyzing the fashion trends presented in Vogue Korea between 1997 and 2002. A content analysis method was used to analyze 24 volumes. The result showed that the fashion trend of 1997's was a turning point from the simplicity, which was a trend up to 1996's, to the romanticism. The fashion trends of 2002 seemed to be also a turning point from the new-romanticism which was added the hippism to the romanticism continued from 1997, to the sporticism. The result confirmed that the main-stream of fashion theme have been continued for 5 years as a regular cycle system and could be repeated. It also verified that some sub-stream which was affected by social, cultural and political situation led the fashion changes. The results of this study could be expected to reflect not only fashion design, merchandising and marketing strategy but also consumer purchase behavior of the future.

인터넷에서 이질적인 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장하기 위한 현재까지의 연구는 크게 망 차원에서의 자원 예약방법과 계층적 멀티캐스트를 이용한 적응 방법으로 구분된다. 첫번째 방법의 경우 RSVP(resource ReSerVation Protocol) 시그널링을 사용하므로 정량적인 QoS 보장은 가능하나 각 라우터에서 각 세션 플로우 상태 정보를 유지해야 하는 확장성 문제점이 있다. 두번째 방법의 경우 계층적 인코딩을 사용하여 응용 플로우를 여러 계층의 서브스트림으로 분리하고 각각을 멀티캐스트 채널을 통하여 전송한다. 그러나 이 메커니즘은 라우터가 각 계층간의 중요도를 인식할 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 멀티 캐스트 그룹 관리와 주소 할당 문제에 있어서 복잡성을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 메커니즘들의 문제점을 해결하고자 계층적 인코딩에 의해 생성된 스트림들간의 차별화를 통해 라우터에서 대역폭이 부족한 수신자에게는 기본적인 품질의 스트림만을 제공하는 반면에 대역폭이 충분한 수신자에게는 최상의 품질을 제공할 수 있는 이질적 QoS 방안을 제안한다.

Zoning technology of disk improved the performance of disk subsystem with increase of storage capacity and average transfer bandwidth. SCAN disk scheduling with double buffering is used to utilize the performance of zoned disk in multimedia system. However, this method has a problem that generates jitter when the number of steams increases. In this article, we propose the novel approach, pre-buffering policy, to overcome this problem. Pre-buffering avoids jitter by buffering the lack of data before starting service, which is estimated from the current cycle length and the maximum cycle length. We can calculate cycle length, data sire needed in each cycle and the possible lack of data caused by the increase of the number of streams using the numerical model of disk subsystem. Pre-buffering can be applied for multimedia systems and contribute to provide clients with high quality service without jitter.

For the handhold devices, minimizing repetitive CPU operations such as multiplications is a major factor for their performances. In this paper, we propose efficient algorithms for finding similar sequences from streaming time-series data such as stock prices, network traffic data, and sensor network data. First, we formally define the problem of similar subsequence matching from streaming time-series data, which is called the stream sequence matching in this paper. Second, based on the window construction mechanism adopted by the previous subsequence matching algorithms, we present an efficient window-based approach that minimizes CPU operations required for stream sequence matching. Third, we propose a notion of window MBR and present two stream sequence matching algorithms based on the notion. Fourth, we formally prove correctness of the proposed algorithms. Finally, through a series of analyses and experiments, we show that our algorithms significantly outperform the naive algorithm. We believe that our window-based algorithms are excellent choices for embedded stream sequence matching in handhold devices.

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive intra coding technique using 1-D and 2-D integer transforms for improving coding efficiency of H.264/AVC. Proposed technique selects the most effective transform and prediction mode for each block after processing 1-D and 2-D transforms of all prediction modes. In case of using 1-D transform, $4{\times}4$ block is divided into four $1{\times}4$ or $4{\times}1$ subblocks and then each subblock is predicted and subtracted by using the decoded subblock located at the nearest position in the direction of prediction. After prediction error subblock is processed by 1-D transform and quantization, four subblocks are merged back into original $4{\times}4$ block and then, reordered as 1-D signal by a DC biased zigzag scanning pattern according to the prediction mode. Finally, comparing the coding efficiency between bitstreams based on 1-D transform and conventional 2-D transform, prediction mode and quantized coefficients for each block are decided and corresponding quantized coefficients are transmitted. Experimental results show that the proposed adaptive technique increases 0.34dB in BD-PSNR and decreases 4.03% in BD-Bitrate on the average compared with H.264/AVC.

The orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) systems are well suited to multi-rate multicast transmission, as they allow flexible resource allocation across both frequency and time, and provide adaptive modulation and coding schemes. Unlike layered video coding, the multiple description coding (MDC) enables flexible decomposition of the raw video stream into two or more substreams. The quality of the video stream is expected to be roughly proportional to data rate sustained by the receiver. This paper describes a mathematical model of resource allocation and throughput in the multi-rate video multicast for the OFDMA wireless and mobile networks. The impact on mean opinion score (MOS), as a measurement of user-perceived quality (by employing a variety of scheduling disciplines) is discussed in terms of utility maximization and proportional fairness. We propose a pruning algorithm to ensure a minimum video quality even for a subset of users at the resource limitation, and show the optimal number of substreams and their rates can sustain.

For the patients' privacy, secure access control of medical images is essentially necessary. In this paper, two types of Region of Interest (ROI)-based selective encryption schemes are proposed, which concentrate on the security of crucial parts in medical images. The first scheme randomly inverts the most significant bits of ROI coefficients in several high frequency subbands in the transform domain, which only incurs little loss on compression efficiency. The second scheme employs a symmetric key encryption to encrypt selectively the ROI data in the final code-stream, which provides sufficient confidentiality. Both of two schemes are backward compatible so as to ensure a standard bitstream compliant decoder so the encrypted images can be reconstructed without any crash.
