This paper proposes a control-based approach for duty cycle adaptation in wireless sensor networks. The proposed method, QCon, controls duty cycle through queue management in order to achieve high performance under variable traffic rates. To minimize energy consumption while meeting delay requirement, we design a feedback controller, which adapts the sleeping time according to dynamically changing traffic by constraining the queue length at a predetermined value. Based on control theory, we analyze the adaptive behavior of QCon and derive conditions for system stability. Results from asymptotic analysis and simulations indicate that QCon outperforms existing scheduling protocol by achieving more energy savings while satisfying delay requirement.

In the vision of ubiquitous computing environment, smart objects would communicate each other and provide many kinds of information about user and their surroundings in the home. This information enables smart objects to recognize context and to provide active and convenient services to the customers. However in most cases, context-aware services are available only with expert systems. In this paper, we present generalized activity recognition application in the smart home based on a naive Bayesian network(BN) and fuzzy clustering. We quantize continuous sensor data with fuzzy c-means clustering to simplify and reduce BN's conditional probability table size. And we apply mutual information to learn the BN structure efficiently. We show that this system can recognize user activities about 80% accuracy in the web based virtual smart home.

This paper proposes a two dimensional behavior analysis method for fish in a water tank based on the ARX method and the Kalman filter algorithm using image processing technology. In modeling the behavior of fish, the input is denoted as the environmental change and uses M-sequence. The output is expressed by the partnership between fish. The behavior model of individual fish is identified by the ARX method. It is then estimated by the Kalman filter algorithm. Finally, the fish behavior is analyzed by FFT. To prove the effectiveness of the pro-posed algorithm, it is applied to two tilapias in a water tank with dimensions of 100cm$\times$100cm$\times$50cm. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through ARX identification, estimation of Kalman filter, and FFT analysis.

In a park or street, we can see many people jogging or walking with their dogs tracking their masters. In this study, an entertainment robot that imitates a dog's behavior is created. The robot's task is tracking a moving target that is recognized as the master. In order to design the robot, the ecological approach. in which the robot's goals and surroundings heavily influence its design, is used. A three-wheel type locomotion system is designed as the robot's physical structure which can follow a human jogging in outdoor space like a park. A sensor system which can detect the position of a master for the robot in the outdoor space, is developed. This sensor system consists of a signal transmitter which is at the hand of a master and some sensors which are mounted on the robot. The transmitter emits RF(radio frequency) and ultrasonic signals and the sensors detect the direction and distance from the robot to the transmitter by using the received signals. For the control architecture of the robot, a purely reactive behavior-based method is used in order to increase speed of response. The developed robot is evaluated through experiments conducted in indoor and outdoor environments.

복수 무인기의 동시 운용을 통하여 임무 수행 효율성 제고를 꾀할 수 있으며 이를 위해서는 확장성이 용이한 제어 알고리듬을 필요로 하게 되는데 유연성, 강건성, 분산형 제어 및 자기조직화의 특징을 갖는 행동모델 기반의 무리 지능이 현실적인 대안으로 각광받고 있다. 그러나 논리적으로 행동규칙을 설계하기 어렵다는 단점을 극복하기 위하여 최근 진화로봇공학이 무인기 제어에 적용되기 시작하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 제한된 영역을 복수의 무인기로 탐색하는 임무를 진화로봇공학을 적용하여 진화시킨 신경망제어기로 수행한 결과, 직관에 의지하여 설계된 행동모델 기반의 신경망제어기에 비하여 우수한 성능을 보임을 제시하였다.

Policies are collections of general principles specifying the desired behavior and state of a system. Network management is mainly carried out by following policies about the behavior of the resources in the network. Policy-based (PB) network management supports to manage distributed system in a flexible and dynamic way. This paper focuses on configuration management based on Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards. Network security approaches include the usage of intrusion detection system to detect the intrusion, building firewall to protect the internal systems and network. This paper presents how the policy-based framework is collaborated among the network security systems (intrusion detection system, firewall) and intrusion detection systems are cooperated to detect the intrusions.

This paper presents the principles for design of autonomous systems whose behavior is based on models that support the various tasks that must be performed. We propose a model-based architecture aimed at reducing the computational demands required to integrate high level symbolic models with low level dynamic models. Model construction methods are illustrated to outfit such an architecture with the models needed to meet given objectives.

We designed a family of completely autonomous mobile robots with local intelligence. Each robot has a number of on-board sensors, including vision, and does not rely on global positioning systems The on-board embedded controller is sufficient to analyze several low-resolution color images per second. This enables our robots to perform several complex tasks such as navigation, map generation, or providing intelligent group behavior. Not being limited to playing the game of soccer and being completely autonomous, we are also looking at a number of other interesting scenarios. The robots can communicate with each other, e.g. for exchanging positions, information about objects or just the local states they are currently in (e.g. sharing their current objectives with other robots in the group). We are particularly interested in the differences between a behavior-based approach versus a traditional control algorithm at this still very low level of action.

A new evolutionary computation technique, called particle swarm optimization(PSO), has been proposed and introduced recently. PSO has been inspired by the social behavior of flocking organisms, such as swarms of birds and fish schools and PSO is an algorithm that follows a collaborative population-based search model. Each particle of swarm flies around in a multidimensional search space looking for the optimal solution. Then, Particles adjust their position according to their own and their neighboring-particles experience. In this paper, characteristics of PSO such as mentioned are reviewed and compared with GA which is based on the evolutionary mechanism in natural selection. Also dimensionalities of PSO and GA are compared throughout numeric experimental studies. The comparative studies demonstrate that PSO is characterized as simple in concept, easy to implement, and computationally efficient and can generate a high-quality solution and stable convergence characteristic than GA.

An adaptive predictive level control of waste heat steam boiler was studied by using mathematical models considering the inverse response. The simulation experiments of the model identification were performed by using linear and bilinear models. From the results of simulations it was found that the bilinear model represented the actual dynamic behavior of steam boiler very well. ARMA model was used in the model identification and the adaptive predictive controller. To verify the performance and effectiveness of the adaptive predictive controller used in this study the simulation results of the adaptive predictive level control for waste heat steam boiler based on bilinear model were compared to those of P, PI and PID controller. The results of simulations showed that the adaptive predictive controller provides the fast arrival to setpoint of liquid level.
