The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. In this paper, we propose a novel cooperative communication protocol adaptive to current UWB link transmission rate. The proposed cooperative communication protocol has compatibility with current WiMedia D-MAC and Wireless USB standard and is executed at each device according to a Relay Node Selection (RNS) criterion.

In this paper, an efficient technique for enhancing the QoS of multimedia service for an WiMedia network applying distributed cooperative medium access (D-MAC) protocol is proposed. D-MAC protocol has been proposed to support high-rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (HR-WPANs) by the WiMedia Alliance. Unlike the centralized IEEE 802.15.3 MAC, the D-MAC UWB specified by WiMedia supports all devices to be self-organized and removes the SOP (Simultaneous Operating Piconet) problem, i.e., packet collisions between overlapped piconets in the centralized IEEE 802.15.3 MAC. However the WiMedia D-MAC can't prevent reduce the throughput degradation occurred by mobile nodes with low data rate. Therefore, a distributed cooperative MAC protocol for multi-hop UWB network is proposed in this paper. The proposed technique can intelligently select the transmission path with higher data rate to provide real-time multimedia services with minimum delay, thus enhances QoS of multimedia service.

This paper proposes a 24-bit floating point multiply and accumulate(MAC) unit that can be used in geometry transformation process in 3D graphics. The MAC unit is composed of floating point multiplier and floating point accumulator. When separate multiplier and accumulator are used, matrix calculation, used in the transformation process, can't use continuous accumulation values. In the proposed MAC unit the accumulator can get continuous input from the multiplier and the calculation time is reduced. The MAC unit uses about 4,300 gates and can be operated at 150 MHz frequency.

The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. In this paper, firstly, a time slot reservation protocol for relay transmission is proposed. Furthermore, we propose a novel relay node selection algorithm adaptive to current UWB link transmission rate. The proposed relay node selection algorithm has compatibility with current WiMedia D-MAC standard and is executed at each device according to the SoQ as a QoS criterion.

The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC)/WUSB protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. In this paper, we propose a novel SoQ-based cooperative communication protocol adaptive to current UWB link transmission rate and QoS measure. The proposed SoQ-based cooperative communication protocol has compatibility with current WiMedia D-MAC/Wireless USB standard and is executed at each device according to a SoQ-based Relay Node Selection (RNS) criterion.

Purpose: This research has been carried out to find out correlation between test results of ABR-2000 and other diagnostic equipments to enhance significance of accurate diagnosis and clinical usage of ABR-2000. Methods: Duration of the 31 months from December 2012 to June 2015, records of 564 outpatients at gynecology department have been selected. The 564 patients were tested, using all 3 different test equipments of ABR-2000, DSOM, and 3D Blood Pressure Pulse Analyzer (3D-MAC) without test errors or mis-recordings. Correlation between 3D Blood pressure Pulse Analyzer, DSOM and ABR-2000 were analyzed by frequency & ratio factor of statistic data records of patients groups devided by 8 different disease symptom and by comparison of the groups in the form of Regulation and Graph presented on ABR-2000 equipment. Results: 1. The indicator L in all 1, 2, and 3 quadrant in the graph means the activity and reactivity of the upper body biodynamics detection rate is low and which result is very common symptom among gynecological patients. 2. The portion of patients with hypermenorrhea, endometritis, and menstrual pain symptom among the indicator L group in the reactivity 1-3 quadrantin is significantly high. 3. When 3D Mac analyzer indicates H, diastole decreases while systole increases and tachycardia increases then the blood circulation is expected to increase. In case of indication L, diastole increases and systole decreases then, the blood circulation is expected to decrease.

IEEE 802.15.3 is wireless Medium Access Control(MAC) and Physical Layer(PHY) specification for high rate WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network). IEEE 802.15.3 MAC Layer provides Qos with three kinds of acknowledgements; No acknowledgement, Immediate acknowledgement, and Delayed acknowledgement. This paper presents how to improve QoS with new acknowledgement method called Delayed Negative acknowledgement. This paper describes the method of using Delayed Negative acknowledgement and presents the calculation of QoS improvement by using Delayed Negative acknowledgement.

The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. The WiMedia D-MAC fundamentally removes the problems of the centralized MAC revealed at IEEE 802.15.3 MAC, by adopting a distributed architecture. However, there is no completely distributed method for allocating fair data rates to all traffic streams by considering each stream's QoS parameter. In this paper, a novel fair distributed QoS admission control method is proposed. The proposed method is a fair, adaptive QoS provisioning method, by allocating time slots to devices according to the current traffic load condition, through executing only a proposed single satisfaction of QoS (SoQ) algorithm at each device.

Objectives: This study was performed to observe the correlations between the results of ABR-2000 and DSOM / 3D-MAC to evaluate the feasibility of ABR-2000 as a oriental medical diagnostic criteria. Methods: We studied 547 women visiting ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ hospital from December 2012 to June 2015. The subjects were categorized in two groups, 'Hypotonia' and 'Non-Hypotonia' by the result of ABR-2000 and assessed the result of DSOM, 3D-MAC for each group. The differences of pulse wave factors by group also studied. Results: 1. There was no significant difference between two groups about the output frequency of pathogenic factors in DSOM while the result showed the higher correlation in Hypotonia group in terms of the companion tendency of pathogenic factors and syndromes formed by the combination of pathogenic factors. 2. The pulse waves of Hypotonia group were mostly slow, weak, tense and stiff than Non-Hypotonia group. Conclusions: 1. In Hypotonia group, yin deficiency (陰虛) factor was frequently accompanied and consumption (虛損) of various organs based on the yin deficiency (陰虛) was observed. It means chronic and severe condition of exhaustion syndrome (虛勞). 2. The result of 3D-MAC also means pathological feature of yin syndrome (陰 證) and consumption (虛損). Besides, lower scores of Body Surface Area (BSA), body weight, and Body Mass Index (BMI) were associated with body weakness (體瘦), a symptom of exhaustion syndrome (虛勞).

MacCormack's method is an explicit, second order finite difference scheme that is widely used in the solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. Apparently, however, it has shown entropy violations under small discontinuity. This non-physical shock grows fast and eventually all the meaningful information of the solution disappears. Some modifications of MacCormack's methods follow ideas of central schemes with an advantage of second order accuracy for space and conserve the high order accuracy for time step also. Numerical results are shown to perform well for the one-dimensional Burgers' equation and Euler equations gas dynamic.
