This paper proposes an ultrasound vessel-pattern imaging algorithm with low computational complexity. The proposed imaging algorithm reconstructs blood-vessel patterns by only detecting blood flow, and can be applied to a real-time signal processing hardware that extracts an ultrasonic finger-vessel pattern. Unlike a blood-flow imaging mode of typical ultrasound medical imaging device, the proposed imaging algorithm only reconstructs a presence of blood flow as an image. That is, since the proposed algorithm does not use an I/Q demodulation and detects a presence of blood flow by accumulating an absolute value of the clutter-filter output, a structure of the algorithm is relatively simple. To verify a complexity of the proposed algorithm, a simulation model for finger vessel was implemented using Field-II program. Through the behavioral simulation, it was confirmed that the processing time of the proposed algorithm is around 54 times less than that of the typical color-flow mode. Considering the required main building blocks and the amount of computation, the proposed algorithm is simple to implement in hardware such as an FPGA and an ASIC.

댐 건설은 홍수 및 가뭄에 대응하기 위한 구조적 방법으로써 우리나라와 같이 지표수에 의존적인 지역에서는 가용 수자원을 확보하기 위한 확실한 수단으로 활용되어왔다. 신규 댐의 건설은 대상 하천의 수리학적 특성에 큰 변화를 야기할 수 있으며, 댐의 안정성 및 하천의 하도보호를 위해 댐 주변의 수리적 특성의 변화에 대해서도 사전에 인지하여 설계 시 반영할 필요가 있다. 수공구조물 신설에 따라 변화되는 수리학적 특성을 분석하는 방법으로는 그 수단에 따라 상사법칙을 적용한 수리모형실험과 수치기법을 활용한 수치모형실험으로 나눌 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형실험을 통한 실험적 방법을 이용하여 댐 상하류 구간의 수리학적 특성을 분석하였다. 해당 실험은 한국농어촌공사 농어촌연구원의 대형수리모형실험시설에서 수행되었다. 적용대상 댐의 제원은 높이 약 70m, 길이 약 230m이며, 폭 55m의 여수로를 포함하는 구조로 설정하였다. 수리모형은 Froude 상사법칙을 적용하여 1/30 규모로 축소하였으며, 콘크리트 및 아크릴 재료를 이용하여 제작되었다. 댐 모형이 설치되는 하천구간은 댐 구조물을 포함하여 실규모를 기준으로 흐름방향으로 약 800m, 하폭방향으로 약 450m의 범위를 포함하도록 설계되었으며, 하류구간에 사행하천이 존재하는 것이 특징이다. 본 실험에서 유량은 총 12개의 펌프를 이용하여 공급되었으며, 최대 4cms에 해당하는 유량공급이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 공급유량은 정교한 절차에 의해 보정된 전자식 유량계를 통해 통제되었으며, 사용된 유량계의 허용오차는 약 0.5% 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 수위 측정은 오차범위 0.05mm 수준의 초음파 수위측정기를 이용하였으며, 유속측정은 약 0.5cm/s의 정확도를 지닌 3차원 전자기 유속계를 이용한 접촉식 측정과 흐름구조 가시화를 위한 비접촉식 입자추적기법을 병행하였다. 실험조건은 실규모 기준으로 방류량 3,000~5,000cms에 대해 수행하였으며, 각 방류량별 댐 상하류의 흐름패턴에 대해 정량적으로 분석하였다.

Many servers, such as web and database servers, receive a continual stream of requests. The servers should schedule these requests to provide the best services to users. In this paper, a hybrid genetic algorithm is proposed for scheduling divisible requests without interruption in which the objective is to minimize the total stretch. The stretch of a request is the ratio of the amount of time the request spent in the system to its response time. The hybrid genetic algorithm adopts the idea of seed selection and development in order to improve the exploitation and exploration power of genetic algorithms. Extensive computational experiments have been conducted to compare the performance of the hybrid genetic algorithm with that of genetic algorithms.

This is an introduction to an art of digital hardware design using polymachine image as a target structure of the product. As in the case of software design of a computer, the design process begins with a sketch of planned system in flow chart description and the flow charts is partitioned into divergent elements. Each of the element machine is derived from those divergent elements. We can build a complete digital system with the preparation of an index, and a polymer of these element machines.

In this paper, we propose a new optical hybrid switching system that takes advantage of both Optical Burst Switching (OBS) and Optical Circuit Switching (OCS) technologies. This system classifies incoming IP traffic flows into short-lived and long-lived flows for hybrid switching. For performance analysis, we model the system as a single server queue in a Markovian environment. The burst generation process is assumed to follow a two-state Markov Modulated Poisson Process (MMPP), and the service rate fluctuates based on the number of concurrent OCS sessions. Results of the mean delay and queue size for OBS bursts are derived.

As blogs become an important medium through which to communicate and exchange information on the World Wide Web, phenomena in the blogosphere are treated as important social phenomena. The advent of the blogosphere may provide opportunities for establishing new business models targeting online world. The blogosphere changes over time. To establish successful business policies in the blogosphere, the changes in the characteristics of the blogosphere should be understood. In this paper, focusing on the influence of convenient features of the Korean blogosphere, we analyze the changes of the characteristics of the Korean blogosphere over time. We expect that the results of these analyses would be helpful in developing effective algorithms and in establishing new business models.

This paper presents a fast hardware architecture to implement a 2-D DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) computed by lifting scheme framework. The conventional 2-D DWT hardware architecture has problem in internal memory, hardware resource, and latency. The proposed architecture was based on the 4-way partitioned data set. This architecture is configured with a pipelining parallel architecture for 4-way partitioning method. Due to the use of this architecture, total latency was improved by 50%, and memory size was reduced by using lifting scheme.

This paper proposes a traffic-aware TXOP adjustment algorithm for the IEEE 802.11e networks. In the proposed algorithm the access point (AP) monitors the network traffics periodically and adjusts the TXOP value of the non-QoS traffic in order to improve the network throughput while maintaining the QoS of video and voice applications. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the legacy IEEE 802.11e in terms of the throughput and the fairness.

The key exchange protocols are very crucial tools to provide the secure communication in the broadband satellite access network. They should be required to satisfy various requirements such as security, key confirmation, and key freshness. In this paper, we present the security functions in ETSI(European Telecommunications Standards Institute), and analyze the specification of the security primitives and the key exchange protocols for the authenticated key agreement between RCST(Return Channel Satellite Terminal) and NCC(Network Control Centre). ETSI key exchange protocols consists of Main Key Exchange, Quick Key Exchange, and Explicit Key Exchange. We analyse the pros and cons of key exchange protocols based on performance analysis and performance evaluation.

본 논문에서는 단상 1.9kV/127V, 2kVA 용량의 양방향 지능형 반도체 변압기의 시작품을 제작하고 그 동작특성을 실험적으로 분석한 내용을 기술하고 있다. 제작한 반도체 변압기는 3대의 LLC 컨버터를 입력 측은 직렬로 결합하고 출력 측은 병렬로 결합한 AC-DC 컨버터와 1대의 하드스위칭 양방향 2-Stage DC-AC 컨버터가 직렬로 결합되어 있다. 제안하는 반도체변압기의 회로적인 특성을 분석하기 위해 PSCAD/EMTDC 소프트웨어를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 실시하였고 분석을 통해 얻은 결과를 바탕으로 하드웨어 시작품을 제작하고 다양한 실험을 통해 그 동작과 성능을 검증하였다. 먼저 1차적으로는 정상동작에 대해 실험을 실시하고 얻은 결과를 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 2차적으로는 전력의 흐름에 따른 동작을 실험적으로 분석하였다. 그 후에는 입력전압에 외란이 발생하였을 때 보상성능을 순방향 조류와 역방향 조류 2가지 경우로 나누어 실험을 실시하고 그 결과를 실험결과와 비교 분석하였다. 분석한 결과 제안하는 반도체변압기는 양방향 전력흐름이 가능하고 입력전압에 Sag가 발생한 경우에도 이를 보상하여 수전단이나 부하에 전력공급이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 향후 단상 반도체 변압기 2대를 더 제작하여 3상 3.3kV/380V, 6kVA 용량으로 확대하여 실험을 실시할 예정이다.
