The goal of this research is to study the spatial and temporal disjunctive composition of the movie 'Kill Bill part 1/2' and to lay a foundation for the future exploration of the topological relationship between contemporary architecture and cinema based upon the spatial and temporal multiplicity. Since the birth of cinema in early 20 century, architecture and cinema have a dynamic interdisciplinary relationship as Soviet director and theorist Sergei Eisenstein has called the Acropolis of Athens as 'one of the most ancient films' based upon its cinematic spatial sequence, and contemporary architect and theorist Bernard Tschumi has adopted cinematic montage technique to create his own disjunctive event-structure. As french philosopher Gilles Deleuze has traced the cinematic version of his 'disjunctive synthesis' from Eisentein's 'dialectic montage', Deleuzian 'disjunctive synthesis' can be discovered not only from the work and theory of Bernard Tschumi and Rem Koolhaas, but also from the 'Kill Bill's disjunctive composition where the heterogeneous spatial images and temporal images are under continuous interaction to create rhizomatic relationship between the cinema and viewers.

Aim of this article is to propose Micro-Genetic Simulated Annealing (${\mu}GSA$) as a hybrid metaheuristics approach to find the global optimum of nonlinear optimisation problems. This approach combines the features of modern metaheuristics such as micro-genetic algorithm (${\mu}GAs$) and simulated annealing (SA) with the general robustness of parallel exploration and asymptotic convergence, respectively. Therefore, ${\mu}GSA$ approach can help in avoiding the premature convergence and can search for better global solution, because of its wide spread applicability, global perspective and inherent parallelism. For the superior performance of the ${\mu}GSA$, the five well-know benchmark test functions that were tested and compared with the two global optimisation approaches: scatter search (SS) and hybrid scatter genetic tabu (HSGT) approach. A practical application to structural sandwich panel is also examined by optimism the weight function. From the simulation results, it has been concluded that the proposed ${\mu}GSA$ approach is an effective optimisation tool for soloing continuous nonlinear global optimisation problems in suitable computational time frame.

As arising concerns on environment, the social and institutional efforts have been made to establish green building in Korea. Even though the progress until now could not be underestimated, the education and information system of green architecture needs to be reconsidered. The system and the program of USGBC to cultivate green design and construction in the USA could be a good case to be explored. The results of exploration of USGBC programs are followed. First, USGBC is industry-led and consensus driven coalition and has diverse membership including building owners, architects, engineers, general contractors, government agencies and nonprofits. Second, various education programs are developed and provided not only for building industry practitioners but also for general people. Third, LEED Accredited Professionals who have detailed knowledge of LEED project certification requirements and processes are produced to make rating system go on smoothly and spread out. Forth, there are international conference and expo called "Greenbuild" and chapter events to interchange of information on green building industry. Lastly, there are incentives which are earning continuing education credits for other organizations such as AIA for attending a LEED workshop and earning a project one point towards LEED Certification. In view of above results, USGBC and its education program can be a good reference for developing ours on green building in Korea.

This study presents a modified scheme for the radar image simulation of sea waves. A simulated radar image was obtained by taking into account the dot product of the directed vector from the radar and the normal vector of the sea surface. Moreover, to calculate the radar image, we used the radar received power and radar cross section. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, the wave spectrum from field data was utilized to obtain the simulated sea waves. The radar image was simulated using numerically generated sea waves. The wave statistics from the simulation agrees comparatively with those of the original field data acquired by real radar measurements.

In this paper, we implement and evaluate the performance of a vector-based rasterization algorithm for 3D graphics by using a SIMD (single instruction multiple data) many-core processor architecture. In addition, we evaluate the impact of a data-per-processing elements (DPE) ratio that is defined as the amount of data directly mapped to each processing element (PE) within many-core in terms of performance, energy efficiency, and area efficiency. For the experiment, we utilize seven different PE configurations by varying the DPE ratio (or the number PEs), which are implemented in the same 130 nm CMOS technology with a 500 MHz clock frequency. Experimental results indicate that the optimal PE configuration is achieved as the DPE ratio is in the range from 16,384 to 256 (or the number of PEs is in the range from 16 and 1,024), which meets the requirements of mobile devices in terms of the optimal performance and efficiency.

This paper proposes a parallel architecture of random signal-based learning (PRSL), merged with simulated annealing (SA), to optimize the fuzzy logic controller (FLC). Random signal-based learning (RSL) finds the local optima very well, whereas it can not finds the global optimum in a very complex search space because of its serial nature. To overcome these difficulties, PRSL, which consists of serial RSL as a population, is considered. Moreover, SA is added to RSL to help the exploration. The validity of the proposed algorithm is conformed by applying it to the optimization of a FLC for the inverted pendulum.

This work examines discourse on uses of computer technology and its transformation during the last thirty years effecting Korea landscape architecture. First, in the 1990s landscape architects begun to use computers as a new technology for landscape architecture, programming computer software utilities suitable for landscape research, planning, and design. The landscape architects, acting as computer programmers, tried to explore various techniques for landscape analysis and design with a piece of software, and various experts within the field of landscape architecture collaborated with each other. However, landscape architects mainly used computer technology as a tool as a substitute for hands-on cases. Since around the 2000s, the discourse on mapping and diagrammatic techniques as a visualization technique for landscaping processes have begun. Also, realistic representations for perspective drawings using graphic software have been increasingly important. The landscape architects, acting as graphic designers, focused on the specific visualization techniques for landscape planning and design. However, computer technology has been mainly used to produce realistic visuals aids for final presentations instead of creative exploration to generate landforms. Additionally, recent landscape architects have been using landscape performance modeling and parametric modeling for landform and landscape furniture design. The landscape architects as spatial designers are actively using computer modeling as creative form-generating tools during the design process.

An experimental investigation on the behaviour of concrete beams reinforced with various reinforcement, including ordinary steel bars, CFRP bars and CFRP prestressed concrete prisms(PCP). The main variable in the test program was the level of prestress and the cross section of PCP.The modes of failure and the crack width were observed. The results of load-deflection and load-crack width characteristics were discussed. The results showed that the CFRP prestressed concrete prisms as flexural reinforcement of concrete beams could limit deflection and crack width under service load and PCP can overcome the serviceability problems associated with the low elastic modulus/strength ratio of CFRP.

SCA(Software Communications Architecture)는 SDR(Software Defined Radio)를 위한 표준 플랫폼으로, 어떤 플랫폼에서도 SCA 표준을 이용하여 구현된 시스템이라면 SCA 규격을 지켜 작성된 소프트웨어 모듈을 실행할 수 있도록 하고 있다. SDR은 기존의 하드웨어로 구현하였던 무선 통신 시스템을 모두 소프트웨어로 구현하고자 하는 기술이지만, 임베디드 시스템의 경우에는 프로세서의 성능이 현저히 떨어지기 때문에 실시간 신호 처리를 보장할 수가 없다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 무선통신의 성능을 보장하기 위해서는 범용 프로세서와 함께 DSP나 FPGA와 같은 특화된 하드웨어의 사용이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 경우에는 웨이브폼 어플리케이션 작성을 위해서 하드웨어와 소프트웨어의 파티셔닝도 고려해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 SCA 플랫폼에서의 웨이브폼 어플리케이션을 빠르게 생성하는 방법을 제안하여 다양한 하드웨어를 사용하는 플랫폼에서의 최종 웨이브폼 어플리케이션을 위한 설계 공간 탐색(Design space exploration)을 도와, 내장형 시스템에서도 효율적으로 실행 가능한 웨이브폼 어플리케이션을 개발할 수 있도록 한다.

In this paper, we present a soft IP compiler for the Reed-Solomon decoder that generates a fully synthesizable VHDL core exploiting characteristic parameters and design constraints that we newly classify for the soft IP. It produces a structural design with an estimable regular architecture based on a finite state machine with a datapath (FSMD). Since characteristic parameters provide different design points on the design space, using one of two simple procedures called the constructive search with area increment (CSAI) and constructive search with speed decrement (CSSD) for design space exploration, the core compiler makes it possible for an IP user to create the Reed-Solomon decoder with appropriate sub-architectures without synthesizing many models. Experimental results show that the IP compiler can apply to several industry standards.
