Recently, the distance education has been rapidly proliferated with the rapid growth of the Internet and high speed networks. There has been relatively much research with regard to online lecture (teaching and studying) tools for the distance education, compared to the virtual laboratory tools (for self-study and experiments). In this paper, we design and implement a web-based simulation tool, named as SimDraw, for the virtual laboratory in the distance education. To apply the web-based simulation technology into the distance education, some requirements should be met; firstly, the user interface of the simulation should be very easy for students. Secondly, the simulation should be very portable to be run on various computer systems of remote students. Finally, the simulation program on remote computers should be very thin so that students can easily install the program onto their computers. To meet these requirements, SimDraw adopts the client/server architecture; the client program contains only model development and animation functions so that no installation of a client program onto student's system is required, and it can be implemented by a Java applet in Web browsers. The server program supports client programs by offering the functions such as remote compiling, model storing, library management, and user management. For the evaluation of SimDraw, we show the simulation process using the example experimentation of the RIP(Routing Information Protocol) Internet routing protocol.

IoT(Internet of Things) is a concept of connected internet pursuing direct access to devices or sensors in fused environment of personal, industrial and public area. In IoT environment, it is possible to access realtime data, and the data format and topology of devices are diverse. Also, there are bidirectional communications between users and devices to control actuators in IoT. In this point, IoT is different from the conventional internet in which data are produced by human desktops and gathered in server systems by way of one-sided simple internet communications. For the cloud or portal service of IoT, there should be a file management framework supporting systematic naming service and unified data access interface encompassing the variety of IoT things. This paper implements a DB-based virtual file system maintaining attributes of IoT things in a UNIX-styled file system view. Users who logged in the virtual shell are able to explore IoT things by navigating the virtual file system, and able to access IoT things directly via UNIX-styled file I O APIs. The implemented virtual file system is lightweight and flexible because it maintains only directory structure and descriptors for the distributed IoT things. The result of a test for the virtual shell primitives such as mkdir() or chdir() shows the smooth functionality of the virtual file system, Also, the exploring performance of the file system is better than that of Window file system in case of adopting a simple directory cache mechanism.

Magnetoelectric (ME) composites are comprised of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric phases. Lots of theoretical and experimental works have been done on ME composites in the last couple of decades. The output performance of ME composites has been enhanced by optimizing the constituent phases, interface layer, dimensions of the ME composites, different operating modes, etc. However, the detailed information about the characterization of ME coupling in ME composites is not provided yet. Therefore, in this tutorial paper, we are giving an insight into the details of measurements of ME voltage coefficient of ME composites both at off-resonance and resonance conditions. A symmetric type Gelfenol/PMN-PZT/Gelfenol ME composites were fabricated by sandwiching (011) 32-mode PMN-PZT single crystal between two Galfenol plates by epoxy bonding are used for the example of ME coupling measurement. The details about the experimental setup used for the measurement of ME voltage coefficient are provided. Furthermore, a step-by-step measurement of ME voltage coefficient using computerized program is demonstrated. We believe the present experimental measurement details can help readers to understand the concept of ME coupling and its analysis.

In this paper, we propose autonomous intelligent wheelchair system which recognize the commands using the gaze recognition and avoid the detected obstacles by sensing the distance through range sensors on the way to driving. The user's commands are recognized by the gaze recognizer which use a centroid of eye pupil and two reflection points extracted using a camera with infrared filter and two infrared LEDs. These are used to control the wheelchair through the user interface. Then wheelchair system detects the obstacles using 10 ultrasonic sensors and assists that it avoid collision with obstacles. The proposed intelligent wheelchair system consists of gaze recognizor, autonomous driving module, sensor control board and motor control board. The gaze recognizer cognize user's commands through user interface, then the wheelchair is controled by the motor control board using recognized commands. Thereafter obstacle information detected by ultrasonic sensors is transferred to the sensor control board, and this transferred to the autonomous driving module. In the autonomous driving module, the obstacles are detected. For generating commands to avoid these obstacles, there are transferred to the motor control board. The experimental results confirmed that the proposed system can improve the efficiency of obstacle avoidance and provide the convenient user interface to user.

Recently, deep learning technology has become those methods as de facto standards in the area of medical data representation. But, deep learning inherently requires a large amount of training data, which poses a challenge for its direct application in the medical field where acquiring large-scale data is not straightforward. Additionally, brain signal modalities also suffer from these problems owing to the high variability. Research has focused on designing deep neural network structures capable of effectively extracting spectro-spatio-temporal characteristics of brain signals, or employing self-supervised learning methods to pre-learn the neurophysiological features of brain signals. This paper analyzes methodologies used to handle small-scale data in emerging fields such as brain-computer interfaces and brain signal-based state prediction, presenting future directions for these technologies. At first, this paper examines deep neural network structures for representing brain signals, then analyzes self-supervised learning methodologies aimed at efficiently learning the characteristics of brain signals.

Field geotechnical data are obtained from various field and laboratory tests and are documented in geotechnical investigation reports. For efficient design and construction, digitizing these geotechnical parameters is essential. However, current practices involve manual data entry, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors. Thus, this study proposes an automatic data extraction method from geotechnical investigation reports using image-based deep learning models and text-mining techniques. A deep-learning-based page classification model and a text-searching algorithm were employed to classify geotechnical investigation report pages with 100% accuracy. Computer vision algorithms were utilized to identify valid data regions within report pages, and text analysis was used to match and extract the corresponding geotechnical data. The proposed model was validated using a dataset of 205 geotechnical investigation reports, achieving an average data extraction accuracy of 93.0%. Finally, a user-interface-based program was developed to enhance the practical application of the extraction model. It allowed users to upload PDF files of geotechnical investigation reports, automatically analyze these reports, and extract and edit data. This approach is expected to improve the efficiency and accuracy of digitizing geotechnical investigation reports and building geotechnical databases.

Recent advances in large-scale data processing technologies such as big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence have increased the demand for high-performance storage devices in data centers and enterprise environments. In particular, the fast data response speed of storage devices is a key factor that determines the overall system performance. Solid state drives (SSDs) based on the Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) interface are gaining traction, but new bottlenecks are emerging in the process of handling large data input and output requests from multiple hosts simultaneously. SSDs typically process host requests by sequentially stacking them in an internal queue. When long transfer length requests are processed first, shorter requests wait longer, increasing the average response time. To solve this problem, data transfer timeout and data partitioning methods have been proposed, but they do not provide a fundamental solution. In this paper, we propose a dual queue based scheduling scheme (DQBS), which manages the data transfer order based on the request order in one queue and the transfer length in the other queue. Then, the request time and transmission length are comprehensively considered to determine the efficient data transmission order. This enables the balanced processing of long and short requests, thus reducing the overall average response time. The simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the existing sequential processing method. This study presents a scheduling technique that maximizes data transfer efficiency in a high-performance SSD environment, which is expected to contribute to the development of next-generation high-performance storage systems
