In this paper, we propose a heterogenous mission allocation technique for multi-UAV system based on discrete event modeling. We model a series of heterogenous mission creation, mission allocation, UAV departure, mission completion, and UAV maintenance and repair process as a mathematical discrete event model. Based on the proposed model, we then optimize the number of UAVs required to operate in a given scenario. To validate the optimized number of UAVs, the simulations are executed repeatedly, and their results are analyzed. The proposed mission allocation technique can be used to efficiently utilize limited UAV resources, and allow the human operator to establish an optimal mission plan.

Context prediction methods have been developed in two ways - one is a prediction for discrete context and the other is for continuous context. As most of the prediction methods have been used with prediction algorithms in specific domains suitable to the environment and characteristics of contexts, it is difficult to conduct a prediction for a user's context which is based on various environments and characteristics. This study suggests a context prediction method available for both discrete and continuous contexts without being limited to the characteristics of a specific domain or context. For this, we conducted a context prediction based on sequence matching by generating sequences from contexts in consideration of association rules between context attributes and by applying variable weights according to each context attribute. Simulations for discrete and continuous contexts were conducted to evaluate proposed methods and the results showed that the methods produced a similar performance to existing prediction methods with a prediction accuracy of 80.12% in discrete context and 81.43% in continuous context.

This study applies a discrete-continuous choice model to a national survey data set of automobile uses to investigate the potential impacts of a bonus-malus system for new cars in Korea. Not only the impacts on the discrete choice of automobile type and class but also those on the continuous decision making of car operation are analyzed. The characteristics of automobiles and individuals that determine car choice and operation are identified. The simulation based on the estimation result shows that an appropriately designed bonus-malus system can induce a reduction in energy consumption and $CO_2$ emission substantially without additional government expenditure.

In order to conduct the "A Study on Experiment for Improvement of Water Quality in Concrete Block Using illite and $TiO_2$ Powder", as a result of the preliminary mortar experiment, water quality purification characteristic test, pollution-resistance test, fish poison test, and the related KS-equivalent tests after manufacturing the actual concrete block, the following conclusion were deduced. As a result of the concrete block functional evaluation equivalent to KS, all the conditions showed higher compressive strength. Even though increase of absorption rate, according to illite replacement in vesicular structure, was expected as a problem, it was replaced after mixing with Titanium dioxide, and then Titanium dioxide was settled in large pores of illite so there was no problem in absorption rate.

In this paper, we discuss a discrete-time queueing system with dyadic server control policy that combines workload control and multiple vacations. Customers arrive at the system with Bernoulli arrival process. If there is no customer to serve in the system, an idle single server spends a vacation of discrete random variable V and returns. The server repeats the vacation until the total service time of waiting customers exceeds the predetermined workload threshold D. In this paper, we derived the steady-state workload distribution of a discrete-time queueing system which is operating under a more realistic and flexible server control policy. Mean workload is also derived as a performance measure. The results are basis for the analysis of system performance measures such as queue lengths, waiting time, and sojourn time.

Critical practicality problems are cause to search the presentation and contents according to user request and purpose in previous internet system. Recently, there are a lot of researches about dynamic adaptable ontology based system. We designed ontology based educational system which uses discrete probability and user profile. This system provided advanced usability of contents by ontology and dynamic adaptive model based on discrete probability distribution function and user profile in ontology educational systems. This models represents application domain to weighted direction graph of dynamic adaptive objects and modeling user actions using dynamically approach method structured on discrete probability function. Proposed probability analysis can use that presenting potential attribute to user actions that are tracing search actions of user in ontology structure. This approach methods can allocate dynamically appropriate profiles to user.

Understanding the concept of probability distribution becomes more important. We considered probabilities defined in the sample space, the definition of discrete random variables, the probability of defined discrete probability distribution, and the relationship between them as knowledge of discrete probability distribution, and investigated the understanding degree of the mathematics preservice teachers. The results are as follows. Firstly, about 70% of preservice teachers who participated in this study expressed discrete probability distribution graphs in ordered pairs or continuous distribution. Secondly, with regard to the two factors for obtaining discrete probability distributions: probability for each element in the sample space and the concept of random variables that convert each element in the sample space into a real value, only 13% of the preservice teachers understood and addressed both factors. Thirdly, 39% of the preservice teachers correctly responded to whether different probability distributions can be defined for one sample space. Fourthly, when the probability of each fundamental event was determined to obtain the probability distribution of the discrete random variables defined in the undefined sample space, approximately 70% habitually calculated by the uniform probability. Finally, about 20% of preservice teachers understood the meaning and relationship of binomial distribution, discrete random variables, and sample space. In relation, clear definitions and full explanations of concept need to be provided from textbooks and a program to improve the understanding of preservice teachers need to be developed.

JPEG is a most widely used standard image compression technology. This research introduces the JPEG image compression algorithm and describes each step in the compression and decompression. Image compression is the application of data compression on digital images. The DCT (discrete cosine transform) is a technique for converting a time domain to a frequency domain. First, the image is divided into 8 by 8 pixel blocks. Second, working from top to bottom left to right, the DCT is applied to each block. Third, each block is compressed through quantization. Fourth, the matrix of compressed blocks that make up the image is stored in a greatly reduced amount of space. Finally if desired, the image is reconstructed through decompression, a process using IDCT (inverse discrete cosine transform). The purpose of this research is to review all the processes of image compression / decompression using the discrete cosine transform method.

In this paper, a discrete-time loop filter(DLF) phase-locked loop with a Frequency Fluctuation Converting Circuit(FFCC) has been proposed. Discrete-time loop filter can improve spur characteristic by connecting the charge pump and voltage oscillator discretely unlike a conventional continuous-time loop filter. The proposed PLL is designed to operate stably by the internal negative feedback loop including the SSC acting as a negative feedback to the discrete-time loop filter of the external negative feedback loop. In addition, the phase noise is further improved by reducing the magnitude of the loop filter output voltage variation through the FFCC. Therefore, the magnitude of jitter has been reduced by 1/3 compared to the conventional structure. The proposed phase locked loop has been simulated with Hspice using the 1.8V 180nm CMOS process.
