It has been grown interests ot the convergence services about broadcasting and multicasting services such as Mobile IPTV. It needs the efficient scheduling and resource allocation algorithm because video contents have the large data. This paper proposes the resource allocation algorithm for the layered-encoded video coding in the multicasting services. Existing approaches only deal with the utility maximization in the current video frames. However, these algorithms have a problem for the Quality of Services(QoS) if the user's channel states are not good. We apply the delay constraint and find to maximize the utility values using the current content's frames and already assigned content's frames within the constraint periods. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by the higher layer transmission rates compared the existing algorithm and significantly improved for the QoS.

In the recent, the communication market increased every year. Because of the user's demands and exhaustion of wireless resource, we needs a new technology of the communication system. The femtocell is one of the new technology of the communication system. 'Femto' means very small. By using the femtocell that made up the very small cell, the frequency efficiency increase. The femtocell has different cell environments. The Power Control is important for femtocell to avoid interference and unnecessary handover. In this paper, we propose a new femtocell power control that is improvement of handover probability and throughput. And we simulate and check the result.

We have designed and fabricated an active pixel sensor(APS) using an optimized n-well/gate-tied p-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor(PMOSFET)-type photodetector with a built-in transfer gate. This photodetector has a floating gate connected to n-well and a built-in transfer gate. The photodetector has been optimized by changing the length of the transfer gate. The APS has been fabricated using a 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor(CMOS) process. It was confirmed that the proposed APS has a wider dynamic range than the APS using the previously proposed photodetector and a higher sensitivity than the conventional APS using a p-n junction photodiode.

Distributed video coding is a coding paradigm that allows complexity to be shared between encoder and decoder, in contrast with conventional video coding. We propose that complexity balancing method of encoder/decoder by phase motion estimation algorithm. The encoder performs partial motion estimation. The result of the partial motion estimation is transferred to the decoder, and the decoder performs motion estimation within the narrow range. When the encoder can afford some complexity, complexity balancing is possible. The method proposed is able to know relativity between complexity balancing and coding efficiency. The coding efficiency increase rate by the encoder complexity increases is higher than that by the decoder complexity increases. The proposed method can control the complexity and coding efficiency according to devices' resources and channel conditions.

Top-k queries are important to many wireless sensor applications. Conventional Top-k query processing algorithms install a filter at each sensor node and suppress unnecessary sensor updates. However, they have some drawbacks that the sensor nodes consume energy extremely to probe sensor reading or update filters. Especially, it becomes worse, when the variation ratio of top-k result is higher. In this paper, we propose a novel Top-k query processing algorithm for energy-efficiency. First, each sensor determines its priority as the order of data gathering. Next, sensor nodes that have higher priority transmit their sensor readings to the base station until gathering k sensor readings. In order to show the superiority of our query processing algorithm, we simulate the performance with the existing query processing algorithms. As a result, our experimental results show that the network lifetime of our method is prolonged largely over the existing method.

A Block-Time-Bounded Time Division Multiple Access (BTB-TDMA) medium access control protocol, which estimates the propagation delay of nodes according to their location and moving velocity information, has been proposed for underwater acoustic networks. BTB-TDMA provides nodes with their transmission schedules by a time block that is a time unit, newly designed for BTB-TDMA. In this paper, we investigate how the receiver collision, that is induced by the asymmetry between node's uplink and downlink propagation delay due to its mobility, affects the performance of BTB-TDMA. To do this, we analytically obtain the collision rate, the channel access delay, and the channel utilization by considering the asymmetry of propagation delay. Then, simulations are extensively performed with respect to the length of a time block by varying the number of nodes, the network range, and the node's velocity. Thus, the simulation results can suggest performance criteria to determine the optimal length of a time block which minimizes the collision rate and concurrently maximizes the channel access delay and the channel utilization.

In this paper, a performance evaluation model of the Fat-tree Network with the multiple-buffered crossbar switches is proposed and examined. Buffered switch technique is well known to solve the data collision problem of the switch network. The proposed evaluation model is developed by investigating the transfer patterns of data packets in a switch with output-buffers. Two important parameters of the network performance, throughput and delay, are then evaluated. The proposed model takes simple and primitive switch networks, i.e., no flow control and drop packet, to demonstrate analysis procedures clearly. It, however, can not only be applied to any other complicate modern switch networks that have intelligent flow control but also estimate the performance of any size networks with multiple-buffered switches. To validate the proposed analysis model, the simulation is carried out on the various sizes of Fat-tree networks that uses the multiple buffered crossbar switches. Less than 2% differences between analysis and simulation results are observed.

Sensor nodes are used as a storage space in the data centric storage method for sensor networks. Sensor nodes save the data to the node which is computed by hash table and users also access to the node to get the data by using hash table. One of the problems which the data centric storage method has is that queries from many users who are interested in the popular data could be concentrated to one node. In this case, responses for queries could be delayed and the energy of heavy loaded node could be dissipated fast. This would lead to reduction of network life time. In this paper, ALT, Data Centric Storage based on Adaptive Local Trajectory, is proposed as scalable data centric storage method for sensor network. ALT constructs trajectory around the storage node. The scope of trajectory is increased or decreased based on the query frequency. ALT distributes the query processing loads to several nodes so that delay of response is reduced and energy dissipation is also distributed.

기후변화에 의한 강우패턴의 변화는 강우량 및 강우강도의 증가로 대표되며 국립기상연구소 (2011)에 의하면 현재와 같은 탄소배출이 줄어들지 않는다면 2050년 우리나라의 강수량은 16% 증가하고 일 강수량 80mm 이상의 호우발생일수가 60%이상 증가될 것으로 전망하고 있다. 이와 같이 기후변화로 인해 발생빈도가 증가추세인 집중호우는 산사태와 같은 2차 피해를 유발하고 있으며 강우의 예측 및 실시간 모니터링은 재해 예방 및 수자원관리, 국가 방재역량 강화를 위해 연구되어야 할 분야이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 광역적 강우자료로서 미국 NOAA의 기후예측센터에 의해 제공되는 글로벌 강우량 CMORPH와 지상 강우자료와의 비교 분석을 통해 CMORPH 자료의 수자원 분야 이용 가능성을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. CMORPH는 고급의 시공간적 해상도를 가지며, 단기간의 기후 예측센터 모핑(morphing) 방법에 의한 "CMORPH"라 불리우는 강우평가 알고리즘과 새로운 위성 기반 기술을 이용하여 개발되었다. CMORPH 기술에 의해 생산된 글로벌 강우 추정은 저궤도 위성 수동 마이크로파(passive microwaves, PMW) 관측으로부터 유도되고, 그 형태는 전적으로 정지궤도 위성(geostationary satellite) 적외선(IR) 데이터로부터 얻어진 공간적 전파 정보 (모션 벡터)를 통해 전송된다. 이 기술은 PMW 데이터로부터 유도된 비교적 고품질의 추정 강우를 전파하기 위하여 30분 간격의 정지궤도 위성 IR 이미지로부터 파생된 모션 벡터를 이용하며, 때때로 레이더보다 더 나은 성능을 보이기도 하고(Apip 등 2010), CMORPH의 지역적 제공범위는 $60^{\circ}N-60^{\circ}S$이고 2002년 12월부터 제공하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CMORPH 자료 중 2002년 12월부터 제공하는 3시간 누가강우 자료를 수집하였고, 자료의 정확도 분석은 갑천유역을 대상으로 하였다. 3시간 누가 강우량을 1일 누가 강우량으로 변환한 후 금강홍수통제소의 갑천 유역 강우관측소 5곳의 강우자료를 티센 평균에 의한 유역 평균강우자료와 비교하였다. 2009년 1년간의 지상관측자료와 CMORPH자료를 비교한 결과 가 0.34 정도로 분석되었으나 추가 연구를 통해 마이크로 웨이브 강우자료 및 3시간 강우자료, 그리고 30분 강우자료의 분석을 통해 다양한 형태의 강우자료 확보뿐만 아니라 광역적인 강우특성 분석도 가능하여 연구 결과의 동아시아지역 등으로 확대 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

This study analyzed the contracts for library remuneration, amount of the remuneration, average amount of the remuneration in relation to kinds of libraries, distribution of the remuneration, and types and publication year of the works to be collected remuneration based on the data during 2004~2014 from the KORRA. As results, current library remuneration system has limitations for libraries to digitize and transmit to the public their collections, Also, there are some limitations to the protection for copyright holders because the amount of the remuneration collected from libraries has declined and non distribution remuneration has been so high. This study suggested that the library remuneration system needs to be revised considering the scope of library materials to be digitized and predicted frequency of use. Also, the better practical solution to protect copyright holders is not a raise of the library remuneration but the efficient use of the non distribution remuneration.
