With the increased desire of TV consumers for interactivity and personalization, IPTV has been rapidly spread in recent years. IPTV can provide a variety of services through hundreds of channels, but the explosion of TV channels makes users even more difficult to find their desired contents. In addition, the channel zapping delay of IPTV is serious due to the limited network bandwidth. To resolve these problems, this paper distinguishes hot and cold channels by exploiting the real-time viewing rate as well as each user's viewing history, and then, maintains hot channels in the hot list, which is searched first during channel navigation and also prefetched to support the preview of channels. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme improves the IPTV channel seek time significantly compared to existing channel seeking interfaces.

An optical switch composed of three-identical, equally-spaced $Ti:LinbO_3$ waveguides and overlaid Al electrodes of CPW structure was designed and fabricated. Patterned Ti was diffused into z-cut $LinbO_3$ substrates at $1025^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours to make a three-waveguide directional coupler. $SiO_2$ buffer layer of $1.2{\mu}m$ was grown by the PECVD to reduce the propagation loss of TM mode, and Al electrodes were built on the layer for switching the guided beam. For an incident beam of ${\lambda}=1.3{\mu}m$, almost perfect optical coupling between two outer waveguides was observed. When an electric field was applied to detune the three waveguides anti-symmetrically, the optical switching phenomenon was successfully confirmed.

The applying of semantic technologies that aim to let computers understand and automatically process the meaning of the interlinked data on the Web is spreading. In Semantic Web, understanding and accessing the associations between data that is, the meaning between data as well as accessing to the data itself is important. W3C recommended RDF (Resource Description Framework) as a standard format to represent both Semantic Web data and their associations and also proposed several RDF query languages in order to support query processing for RDF data. However further researches on the query language definition considering the semantic associations and query processing techniques are still required. In this paper, using the suffix array-based indexing scheme previously introduced for RDF query processing, we propose a query processing approach to handle ${\rho}$-path query which is the representative type of semantic associations. To evaluate the query processing performance of the proposed approach, we implemented two different types of query processing approaches and measured the average query processing times. The experiments show that the proposed approach achieved 1.8 to 2.5 and 3.8 to 11 times better performance respectively than others two.

This study reflects the current trend of the blind hiring culture focused on job competency rather than education specification as government initiative. In order to overcome the limitation of the existing document-oriented online recruitment process, we proposed a system architecture design of video interview system. In addition, we have evaluated the effectiveness through the development of prototype and performance experiment based on it. The proposed online video interview system is designed to combine intelligent Web technology to enable customized job matching and distant job coaching. This system is designed to reduce recruitment cost and opportunity cost of job seekers. Based on results derived from this study, commercialization of the proposed video interview system can be expected to be an practical online recruitment solution for the job competency based employment.

광의 병렬처리 능력을 잘 활용한 1$\times$4 매트릭스 스위치의 구조와 전극구조를 설계하고 스위치 특성을 조사하기 위하여 beam propagation method(BPM)를 이용하여 수치계산을 하였다. 기존의 매트릭스 스위치는 대부분의 경우 방향성 결합기를 스위치 element로 이용하여 왔으나 이 결합기는 소자의 길이가 길기 때문에 단일 LinBO3 웨이퍼상에 집적할 수 있는 매트릭스 스위치의 크기가 제한되는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 두 도파로 사이에 세 번째 도파로를 삽입하여 두 도파로를 결합시키는 세 도파로 결합기를 스위치 element로 사용하여 세 개의 스위치 element를 LiNbO3기판위에 직렬로 집적시킨 1$\times$4 매트릭스 스위치를 구성하였다. 스위치 element와 1$\times$4 매트릭스 스위치를 구성하였다. 스위치 element와 1$\times$4 매트릭스 스위치의 특성을 BPM을 사용하여 수치계산할 때 단일 모드 도파로의 유효 굴절을 분포는 n(X) = nm + $\Delta$ncosh-2(2x/w)의 형태로 가정했으며, 사용된 파라미터의 값은 각각 nm=2.1455, $\Delta$n=0.003, W=5$mu extrm{m}$, d=5$\mu\textrm{m}$, λ=1.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ 이고 S-파라메터의 값은 0.95927이므로 단일 모드 도파로가 된다. 계산결과 스위치 element의 결합길이는 3810$\mu\textrm{m}$이며 도파로의 길이가 결합길이와 같을 때 전극에 인가된 전압에 의한 도파로의 굴절을 섭등의 함수로 출력광의 세기를 계산한 결과 스위칭 전압은 14.85volt이고 crosstalk는 -18.9dB였다. 이 스위치 element로 구성된 1$\times$4 매트릭스 스위치는 스위칭 전압을 세 개의 전극에 적절한 조합으로 인가함으로써 한 입력 도파로에 결합된 광이 내개의 출력 도파로중 한 도파로에 스위칭 된다. 한편 수치계산의 결과를 실험적으로 확인하기 위해 스위치 element와 1$\times$4 매트릭스 스위치를 z-cut의 LinbO3 결정에 Ti을 열확산시켜 제작한 소자의 스위칭 특성을 발표할 예정이다.

Location-Based Services(LBS) has been varied and expanded rapidly in local and overseas markets due to technology developments and expanded applications of wireless internet. Location Based Alert Service(LBA) capable of automatically furnishing data when entering or outing a specific location is expected to become one of the most important services in LBS. For LBA operation, it is essential to periodically get location information about moving object. However, this can cause a serious system load because system should continuously and largely receive location information of many moving objects. Existing and current methods for location polling of moving object are not suitable for an efficient location acquisition and a search structure required for LBA. In this study, to acquire large-scaled location information for LBA, a MDR moving object location polling algorithm will be suggested to reduce unnecessary location information and decrease system load by using mobility patterns of moving object.

본 논문은 현재 국내 외적으로 널리 공급되고 있는 유리식(glass) 진공관형 태양열 집열기를 대체할 수 있는 비유리식(non-glass) 진공관형 태양열 집열기의 설계 및 제작에 관한 실험적 내용을 소개하고 있다. 비유리식 진공관형 태양열 집열기는 유리식에 비해 그 내구성이 탁월할 뿐 아니라 적용성도 뛰어나지만 비유리식 집열기는 유리식 집열기와 달리 외부공기 입자의 진공관 내부로의 확산을 억제하거나 그 내부의 진공도 유지를 위해 특수 설계를 하여야 하며 아울러 소재의 특성을 최대한 살릴 수 있는 응용 기술의 개발을 필요로 한다. 이를 위하여 진공관 내부의 일정한 진공도 유지를 위해 집열기와 별도로 설치된 Vacuum Chamber를 진공관과 튜브(vacuum connector)로 연결하여 진공관 내의 outgasing이 가능하도록 할 수도 있으며, 진공관 외피에 공기의 침투를 억제하기 위한 gas barrier coating을 고려할 수도 있다. 본 논문에서 소개하는 비유리식(non-glass) 진공관형 태양열 집열기는 기계, 화공, 재료 등 다양한 분야의 원천 기술을 복합적으로 적용한 것으로 기존의 유리식에 비해 설계 및 제작에 있어서 다소 복잡한 양상을 띠고 있다.

The present study proposed a method that dissolves ultrasonographic images into multiple resolutions using wavelet conversion and a boundary detection filter and improves the quality of ultrasonographic images through boundary detection filtering. In order to reduce noises and strengthen edges, the proposed method adjusted selectivity coefficient by area step by step from a low resolution image obtained from wavelet converted images to a high resolution image and performed edge filtering in consideration of direction. Through this method, we generated a selective low pass filtering effect in areas except edges by decreasing the wavelet coefficient for pixels in spot areas, improved continuity by smoothing edges in the tangential direction, and enhanced contrast by thinning in the normal direction. Through an experiment, we compared the filtering method using a non linear anisotropic expansion model and the filtering method using wavelet contraction structure in single resolution.

SiC fiber can be used up to $1800^{\circ}C$ in both inert and air atmosphere without any problems such as melting and oxidation. SiC fibers can be applied to dust filtering processes as a bag filter at a high temperature above $700^{\circ}C$, which is far beyond the temperature range of currently available industrial bag filter. However the studies for the degradation of SiC fibers were still lacked in the harsh environment of steel industries and thermoelectric power plants. In this study, SiC fibers were reacted with steel dust and thermal power plant dust at a high temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ or higher, and the degraded shape of the fiber surface was observed by SEM. Also the degree of oxygen diffusion on the surface and inside of SiC fiber was analyzed by EDS.

In this paper, we propose a feature extraction method for iris recognition using wavelet transforms. The wavelet transform is fast and has a good localization characteristic. In particular, the low frequency band can be used as an effective feature vector. In iris recognition, the noise caused by eyelid the eyebrow, glint, etc may be included in iris. The iris pattern is distorted by noises by itself, and a feature extraction algorithm based on filter such as Wavelets, Gabor transform spreads noises into whole iris region. Namely, such noises degrade the performance of iris recognition systems a major problem. This kind of noise has adverse effect on performance. In order to solve these problems, we propose to divide the iris image into a number of sub-region and apply the wavelet transform to each sub-region. Experimental results show that the performance of proposed method is comparable to existing methods using Gabor transform and region division noticeably improves recognition performance. However, it is noted that the processing time of the wavelet transform is much faster than that of the existing methods.
