The first frame of a GOP is encoded in intra mode which generates a larger number of bits. In addition, the first frame is used for the inter mode encoding of the following frames. Thus the intial QP for the first frame affects the first frame as well as the following frames. Traditionally, the initial QP is determined among four constant values only depending on the bpp. Although this initialization scheme is simple, yet it is not accurate enough. An accurate intial QP prediction scheme should not only depends on bpp but also on the complexity of the video sequence and the output bandwidth. In this paper, we propose a traffic model for finding the optimal initial QP which maximizes the PSNR of the GOP. We also propose a method to find model parameters for real-time video encoding. It is shown by experimental results that the proposed traffic model captures initial QP characteristics effectively and the proposed method for model parameters accurately estimates the real values.

Rolling noises during train operation are caused by vibration excited from irregularities of surface roughness between wheel and rail. Therefore, a proper measurement and analysis techniques of acoustic roughness between wheel and rail surface are required for transmission, prediction, and analysis of the train rolling noise. However, since current measuring devices and methods use trolley-based manual handling devices, the measurements induce unstable measuring speed and vibrational interface that increases errors and disturbances. In this paper, a new automatic rail surface exploring platform with a speed controller has been developed for improving measurement accuracy and reducing inconsistency of measurements. In addition, we propose a data integration method of the rail surface roughness with multiple homogeneous displacement sensors and verified the accuracy of the integrated data through standard test-bed railway track investigation.

The component-based development methodology becomes famous as the new technology for reuse. That technology can help us easily develop a complex and large system by composing reusable components in short period with high-quality and low-cost. The component-based system nay be developed by composing more than one component. So, the quality of component-based system is determined by individual component duality. Therefore, it is necessary to measure individual component quality for the improvement in quality of component-based system. Hence, in this paper, we propose new component metrics for measuring the cohesion as relationship between classes and interfaces or among classes. Those can be applied in the early stage of software development life cycle. So, we can measure the functional cohesion of component which will be developed. Predicting functional independence of a component, we expect to reduce the software developing cost & effort and improve software quality by reusing a component.

This study is conducted to eveluate the potential of a GIS to assist an application problem. GIS has been applied to rainfall-runoff modeling over Soyang area. Various rainfall-runoff models have been developed over the years. A distributed rainfall-runoff model is selected because it considers the topographic characteristics over the basin. GIS can handle the spatial data to enhance the modeling. GRASS-a public domain GIS S/W-is used for GIS tools. Digital database is generated, including soil map, vegetation map, digital elevation model, basin and subbasin map, and water stream. The inpu data for the model has been generated and manupulated using GIS. The database, model and GIS are integrated for on-line operation. The inflow hydrographs are tested for the flood of Sept., 1990. This shows the promising results even without the calibration.

This paper describes ASIC design of Multimedia application SoC platform based RISC processor with BTB(Branch Target Buffer). For performance enhancement of platform, we use a simple branch prediction scheme, BTB structure, that stores a target address for branch instruction to remove pipeline harzard. Also, the platform includes a number of peripheral such as VGA controller, AC97 controller, UART controller, SRAM interface and Debug interface. The platform is designed and verified on a Xilinx VERTEX-4 FPGA using a number of test programs for functional tests and timing constraints. Finally, the platform is implemented into a single ASIC chip which can be operated at 100MHz clock frequency using the Chartered 0.18um process. As a result of performance estimation, the proposed platform shows about 5~9% performance improvement in comparison with the previous SoC Platform.

In this paper, an automotive ECU (electronic control unit) with Kalman filter accelerator is designed and implemented. RISC-V is exploited as a processor core. Accelerator for Kalman filter matrix operation, CAN (controller area network) controller for in-vehicle network, and LIN (local interconnect network) controller are designed and embedded. Kalman filter operation consists of time update process and measurement update process. Current state variable and its error covariance are estimated in time update process. Final values are corrected from input measurement data and Kalman gain in measurement update process. Usually floating-point multiplication is exploited in software implementation, but fixed-point multiplier considering accuracy analysis is exploited in this paper to reduce hardware area. In 28nm silicon fabrication, its operating frequency, area, and gate counts are 100MHz, 0.37mm², and 760k gates, respectively.

ICT 융합 스마트팜 내의 환경계측 센서, 영상 및 사양관리 시스템의 증가에도 불구하고 이들 장비에서 확보되는 데이터를 적절히 유효하게 활용하는 기술이 미흡한 실정이다. 돈사의 경우 가축의 복지수준, 성장 변화를 실시간으로 모니터링 및 예측할 수 있는 데이터 분석 및 모델링 기술 확보가 필요하다. 이를 위해선 가축의 생리적 변화 및 행동적 변화를 조기에 감지하고 가축의 복지수준을 실시간으로 감시하고 분석 및 예측 기술이 필요한데 이를 위한 대표적인 정보 통신 공학적 접근법 중에 하나가 Data mining 이다. Data mining에 대한 연구 수행에 필요한 다양한 소프트웨어 중에서 Open source로 제공이 되는 4가지 도구를 비교 분석하였다. 스마트 돈사 내에서 열환경 모델링을 목표로 한 데이터 분석에서 고려해야할 요인으로 데이터 분석 알고리즘 도출 시간, 시각화 기능, 타 라이브러리와 연계 기능 등을 중점 적으로 분석하였다. 선정된 4가지 분석 도구는 1) R(https://cran.r-project.org), 2) OpenCV(http://opencv.org), 3) OpenNN (http://www.opennn.net), 4) Orange(http://orange.biolab.si) 이다. 비교 분석을 수행한 운영체제는 Linux-Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS(X64)이며, CPU의 클럭속도는 3.6 Ghz, 메모리는 64 Gb를 설치하였다. 개발언어 측면에서 살펴보면 1) R 스크립트, 2) C/C++, Python, Java, 3) C++, 4) C/C++, Python, Cython을 지원하여 C/C++ 언어와 Python 개발 언어가 상대적으로 유리하였다. 데이터 분석 알고리즘의 경우 소스코드 범위에서 라이브러리를 제공하는 경우 Cross-Platform 개발이 가능하여 여러 운영체제에서 개발한 결과를 별도의 Porting 과정을 거치지 않고 사용할 수 있었다. 빌트인 라이브러리 경우 순서대로 R 의 경우 가장 많은 수의 Data mining 알고리즘을 제공하고 있다. 이는 R 운영 환경 자체가 개방형으로 되어 있어 온라인에서 추가되는 새로운 라이브러리를 클라우드를 통하여 공유하기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다. OpenCV의 경우 영상 처리에 강점이 있었으며, OpenNN은 신경망학습과 관련된 라이브러리를 소스코드 레벨에서 공개한 것이 강점이라 할 수 있다. Orage의 경우 라이브러리 집합을 제공하는 것에 중점을 둔 다른 패키지와 달리 시각화 기능 및 망 구성 등 사용자 인터페이스를 통합하여 운영한 것이 강점이라 할 수 있다. 열환경 모델링에 요구되는 시간 복잡도에 대응하기 위한 부가 정보 처리 기술에 대한 연구를 수행하여 스마트팜 열환경 모델링을 실시간으로 구현할 수 있는 방안 연구를 수행할 것이다.

In genetic and molecular breeding studies of plants, researchers need to design various kinds of primers based on their research purposes. So far many kinds of web- or script-based non-commercial programs for primer design are available. Because most of them do not include user interface for multipurpose usage including gene structure prediction and direct target selection on sequences, it has been a laborious work to design primers targeting on the exon or intron regions of interesting genes. Here we report a primer designing graphic user interface program, Pickprimer, that includes gene structure prediction and primer design modules by combining source codes of the Spidey and Primer3 programs. This program provides simple graphic user interface to input sequences and design primers. Genomic sequence and mRNA or coding sequence of genes can be copy and pasted or input as fasta or text files. Based on alignment of the input sequences using the Spidey module, a putative gene structure is graphically visualized along with exon-intron sequences of color codes. Primer design can be easily performed by dragging mouse on the displayed sequences or input primer targeting position with desirable values of primers. The output of designed primers with detailed information is provided by the Primer3 module. PCR evaluation of 24 selected primer sets successfully amplified single amplicons from six Brassica rapa cultivars. The Pickprimer will be a convenient tool for genetic and molecular breeding studies of plants.
