  • 인터넷의 비약적인 발달은 제어시스템의 설계 및 운영에도 많은 영향을 미치게 되어 지금까지와는 전혀 다른 시스템 구현이 가능한 환경으로 만들어 가고 있다. 이와 같은 배경에서 본 연구에서는 LabVIEW를 이용한 복합 공정의 제어 및 모니터링을 Web을 기반으로 한 새로운 방법의 원격제어 시스템을 사용하여 가상실험실을 구현하였다. LS산전의 GLOFA-GM3와 미쓰비시의 MELSEC-Q PLC를 각각 TCP/IP와 RS-232C통신을 사용하여 복합공정 제어 시스템을 구현하였다. NI사의 LabVIEW 프로그램에서 지원하는 Web 출판 기능을 사용하여 웹상에서 50대의 Clint PC의 접속을 가능하게 하여 원격으로 접속, 학습이 가능하도록 가상실험실을 구현하였으며 학습자들은 원격으로 복합 제어공정을 실시간으로 학습할 수 있게 되었다. 나아가 Web 상에서 원격제어의 가능성을 활용하여 산업체에서의 활용범위를 넓히고, 가상 교육환경의 가능성을 열었다.

  • The focus of this paper is on the development and implementation of a methodology for automated design of discrete structural systems. The research is aimed at utilizing Genetic Algorithms (GA) as an automated design tool. Several key enhancements are made to the simple GA in order to increase the efficiency, reliability and accuracy of the methodology for code-based design of structures. The AISC-ASD design code is used to illustrate the design methodology. Small as well as large-scale problems are solved. Simultaneous sizing, shape and topology optimal designs of structural framed systems subjected to static and dynamic loads are considered. Comparisons with results from prior publications and solution to new problems show that the enhancements made to the GA do indeed make the design system more efficient and robust.

  • Software has become an integral part of almost any system, triggered by the ever-growing demand for automation and artificial intelligent throughout engineering domains. The complexities of software-centric systems are also increasing, which make software test efforts become essential in software development projects. In this study, we applied systems engineering methodology in generating software test cases. We found out the similarities between requirements analysis and traceability concept of systems engineering and test specification contents of software test. In terms of acceptance test, software test cases could be considered as validation requirements. We also suggested a method to determine test order using a SysML modeling tool.

  • Crawler-type hydraulic devices facilitate forward and backward driving of construction equipment by converting power into mechanical energy. The existing hydraulic device performance test process is time- and labor-intensive. This study aims to improve efficiency and productivity by automating the hydraulic device production performance test processes, which have been separately conducted so far. We also used SolidWorksⓇ, a 3D modeling program, and ANSYSⓇ, a structural analysis tool, for structural analysis and to verify the suitability of fixing pins required for connecting a hydraulic device to performance test equipment. Our results that employing an automated hydraulic device performance test process improves efficiency.

  • Industry 4.0 is continuous automation by applying the latest smart technologies to traditional manufacturing industries. It means that large-scale M2M (Machine-to-Machine) communication and IoT (Internet of Things) technologies are well integrated to build efficient production systems by analyzing and diagnosing various issues without human intervention. Edge computing is widely used for M2M services that handle real-time interactions between devices at industrial machinery tool sites. Here, secure data transmission is required while interacting. Thus, this paper focused on a method of creating and maintaining secret key and security tag used for message authentication between end-devices and edge-device.

  • 현재 사회적 문제로 잘못된 자원 재활용 방법 및 경비 노동자 근로 환경 개선 필요성이 지속해서 대두되고 있으며, 최근 발생한 코로나바이러스로 인하여 배달 음식의 수요가 증가하여 각 가정에서 배출되는 쓰레기의 양이 매우 증가하였다. 이러한 사회적 문제를 효율적으로 대처하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 분리수거가 가능한 사물을 인식하여 AI 모듈로 객체 정보를 전송하고 전송된 정보에 따라 적절한 분리수거를 수행하는 스마트 분리수거 자동화 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서는 잘못된 객체 정보 전송을 최소화하고, 객체 인식률의 정확도를 높이기 위하여 많은 종류의 Custom dataset을 Yolo_Mark, Scaling Annoter Tool을 이용하여 직접 라벨링 하였으며 K-means Clustering 알고리즘을 적용하여 더욱 정확한 분리수거 자동화 시스템을 구현하였다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 불필요한 자원과 인력 낭비를 줄일 수 있으며, 인간이 아닌 시스템에 의해 통제되므로 더욱 정확한 분리수거가 가능하다.

  • With the advancement of artificial intelligence and its various use cases, accessing it through edge computing environments is gaining traction. However, due to the nature of edge computing environments, efficient management and optimization of clusters distributed in different geographical locations is considered a major challenge. To address these issues, this paper proposes a centralization and automation tool called KubEVC-Agent based on Kubernetes. KubEVC-Agent centralizes the deployment, operation, and management of edge clusters and presents a use case of the data transformation for optimizing intra-cluster communication. This paper describes the components of KubEVC-Agent, its working principle, and experimental results to verify its effectiveness.

  • 모바일 어플리케이션 소프트웨어의 GUI는 눈으로 보고 교감하는 것에 끝나지 않고 나날이 발전하여 소프트웨어의 성공여부를 결정하는 경우로 많이 부각되고 있다. 소프트웨어의 성공에 중요한 요소로 자리 잡히고 있으므로 소프트웨어의 성공을 위한 GUI 테스트가 요구되나 GUI 테스트는 많은 노력과 시간이 투자되는 테스트 분야이다. 이러한 자원의 소비의 줄이기 위해서 GUI 테스트의 자동화가 필요하리라 본다.

  • As a useful tool for embedded system codesign approach, it's necessary to make a custom-built interpreter for the system description verification. Usually, designers need to write their program to simulate the environment their system works in. Sometimes making the simulation environment consumes designers more time and energy than describing their embedded system. The interpreter saves the cost that is spent on making such an environment. In this paper, the necessity and motivation of the interpreter will be introduced first, and then the details about each part of it will be illuminated.
