Building foundations for Top-Down construction require a special setting, because the foundations have to be placed way before excavation for the substructure of main building, Usually, the foundation goes into the layer of rock and it is often called rock-pier foundation, Currently, a cage of steel reinforcing bars is inserted to the pre-excavated hole in the rock layer, hanging down from the wide flange steel column above. This paper presents a new method for connecting the prefounded column and the steel cage with a coupler for better connection between the two, The use of a circular Concrete Filled Tube (CFT) as a prefounded column makes it possible to have this type of connection. The details of the connection and application to a Top-Down construction site is also included in this paper.

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) has attracted attention as an alternative way to enable streaming videos on the Internet. Although P2P systems depend on bandwidth contribution from peers, peers are likely to refuse to contribute their bandwidth. In this paper, we proposed a P2P streaming system that encourages peers to contribute their upstream bandwidth by maintaining fairness among peers and providing different video quality between cooperative peers and selfish peers with a manageable way. Our proposed system determines if peers are cooperative or selfish by a rating mechanism based on their contributed upstream bandwidth, and offers a high quality video to cooperative peers as an incentive. Also we propose a tree reconstruction algorithm to make the system work effectively. Through simulation, we show that the tree reconstruction algorithm works effectively, and our incentive mechanism allocates more downstream bandwidth to cooperative peers and punished selfish peers with low quality video.

Recently, with the rapid increase in technology and users of smart devices, the smart watch market has grown, and its utility and usability are continuously expanding. The strengths of smartwatches are wearable portability, application immediacy, data diversity and real-time capability. Despite these strengths, smartwatches have limitations such as battery limitations, display and user interface size limitations, and memory limitations. In addition, there is a need to supplement developers and standard devices, operating system standard models, and killer application modules. In particular, monitoring and application of user's biometric information is becoming a major service for smart watches. The biometric information of such a smart watch generates a large amount of data in real time. In order to advance the biometric information service, stable peer-to-peer transmission of sensing data to a remote smartphone or local server storage must be performed. We propose a synchronization method to ensure wireless remote peer-to-peer transmission stability in a smart watch system. We design a wireless peer-to-peer transmission process based on this synchronization method, analyze asynchronous transmission process and proposed synchronous transmission process, and propose a transmission efficiency method according to an increase in transmission amount.

The deterioration of freshmen's scholastic performance has been markedly intensified and this phenomenon leads to serious problem in managing a college curriculum. In this study, peer tutoring, as a learning ability improvement program in Hoseo university, was introduced and the influence of the program on freshmen's scholastic performance was analyzed. In managing the program, a spontaneous participation of students was guided, a systematical network was built up among participants, tasks were assigned to participants and the results were verified for the improvement of the program. As a result, it was considered that peer tutoring strengthened the relationship among students, increased the leadership and responsibility as well as helped to enhance the interest in studying and improved the scholastic performance for both tutors and tutees.

Many transmission towers, high-rise buildings and bridges are constructed near steep slopes and are supported by large-diameter piles. These structures may be subjected to large lateral loads, such as violent winds and earthquakes. Widely used types of foundations for these structures are pier foundations, which have large-diameters with high stiffness. The behavior of a pier foundation subjected to lateral loads is similar to that of a short rigid pile because both elements seem to fail by rotation developing passive resistance on opposite faces above and below the rotation point, unlike the behavior of a long flexible pile. This paper describes the results of several numerical studies performed with a three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) of model tests of a laterally loaded short pile located near slopes, respectively. In this paper, the results of model tests of single piles and pile groups subjected to lateral loading, in homogeneous sand with 30$^{\circ}$ slopes and horizontal ground were analyzed by the 3-D FE analyses. The pile was assumed to be linearly elastic. The sand was assumed to have non-associative characteristics, following the MC-DP model. The failure criterion is governed by the Mohr-Coulomb equation and the plastic potential is given by the Drucker-Prager equation. The main purpose of this paper is the validation of the 3-D elasto-plastic FEM by comparisons with the experimental data.

Construction of buildings downtown is increasing as much as ever with a strong demand. A Top-Down Method is suitable for its advantage in minimizing its disturbance to the neighborhood. In general, the Pre-founded Column, one of the most important aspects of the Top-Down Method, has been made with an H-Shape Steel Column. However, due to its structural and economical benefits, the usage of CFT(Concrete Filled Tube) columns in the place of Pre-founded Columns is increasing. To promote their applications, we analyze the merits of CFT columns by comparing them with I-Shape columns and propose further research.

Seismic performance evaluation for dam safety evaluation has been continually conducted. However the behavior analysis for the spillway pier which is known as the weak point of dam is seldom reported. Therefore, this study performed the static loading tests for a prototype structures as elementary tests for the final seismic performance evaluation of dam safety. The prototype of pier structure has 1/20 scale and it adopts to strength model. And cracking loads and ultimate loads of real structures are calculated through numerical analysis using commercial FEM program (ABAQUS). The results of this study show some difference between the results of prototype tests and the results of numerical analysis. Also, the ultimate and cracking loads can be estimated through the prototype loading test and numerical analysis.

The rapid growth of the economy recently gas led to increasing social needs for large scaled structures, such as high-rise buildings and long span bridges. In building these large-scaled structures the trend has been to construct foundations beating on or in rock masses in order to ensure stability and serviceability of the structure under several significant loads. However. when designing the drilled shaft foundation socketed in rock masses in Korea, the bearing capacity for the pier used to be determined by using the empirical expression, which depends on the compressive strength of the rock, or presumable bearing capacity recommended on foreign references or manuals. In this study, numerical analyses are used to trace rock-socketed pile behavior and are made alike with pile load test result in field. The result of this numerical analyses study have shown that following factors have a significant influence on the load capacity and settlement of the pier. Significant influence first factor of the geometry of the socket as defined by the length to diameter ratio. Second factor of the modulus of the rock both around the socket and below the base. third factor of the condition of the end of the pier with respect to the removal of drill cuttings and other loose material from the bottom of the socket.

본 연구에서는 JXTA 기반의 P2P 컴퓨팅 기술을 J2ME 와 MIDP의 기술과 접목하여 새로운 JXTA 기반의 모바일 P2P 솔류션 구현을 가능하도록 한다. MIDP에서 제공하는 API는 무선 JXTA피어를 창조하는데 기초 역할을 수행하지만 그럼에도 불구하고, MIDP의 제한된 라이브러리, XML 파서 부족등의 한계가 있다. 그래서 이러한 자원의 한계를 극복하기 위해 중간에 릴레이 서버를 두어 제한된 환경에서 서비스 제공을 담당한다. JXTA의 가장 중요한 설계 선택중의 하나는 피어에 의해 사용되는 운영체제나 개발언어를 가정하지 않는 것이다. JXTA프로토콜 규격은 명시적으로 네트워크 피어가 소규모 임베디드 장치에서 대규모 슈퍼컴퓨터 클러스터에 이르는 모든 종류의 장치가 될 수 있다. 이러한 기술에 J2ME의 모바일 기능을 추가한 JXTA를 사용하여 기존의 제한된 메시지 전달방법을 탈피하여 JXTA 기반의 P2P 시스템을 만드는데 있다.
