Video on Demand (VOD) system is definitely one of main applications in upcoming multimedia era. In this research, we have designed and implemented a host-based scalable VOD system (SVOD) which is composed of low cost PC servers and runs on Linux kernel that is currently spotlighted in enterprise and research domains. Our contribution is as follows: first, the previous Ext2 file system was modified to efficiently support continuous media like MPEG stream. Second, the storage server features a host-based scalable architecture. Third, a software MPEG decoder was implemented using Microsoft's DirectShow$\circledR$COM. Finally, flow control between client and server is provided to suppress overflow and underflow of client circular buffer and supports FF VCR operation. We have known that it is possible to develop a thread-based and scalable VOD system on low cost PC servers and free Linux kernel.

Today, the scale of the computer software market has increased, and massive sized software has been developed to satisfy diverse requirements. In this context, software complexity is increasing and the quality of software is becoming more difficult to manage. In particular, software reuse is important for the improvement of the environments of legacy systems and new system development. In this paper, we propose a method to reuse modules that are certified by quality. Reusable levels are divided into code area (method, class, and component), project domain, and business levels. Based on the coupling and cohesion of software complexity, we propose a reusable module extraction mechanism with reusability metrics, which constructs a visualization of the "reusable module's chunk" based on the method and class levels. By applying reverse engineering to legacy projects, it is possible to identify reusable modules/objects/chunks. If these modules/objects/chunks are to be reused to develop an extension system or similar new system, we need to ensure software reliability in order to reduce the time and cost of software development.

The requesting a consultation of the farm manager is about the diagnosis and prevention of the breeding and extermination for diseases and insects in greenhouse, the managing problem for diseases and insects turn up a main issue. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a PDA based greenhouse, diseases and insects management system for mobile(GDIMS) uses as keeping up with ubiquitous time, which makes prediction and management for diseases and insects more efficiently checked at any time and anywhere you want to, and go well with the motto of ubiquitous. This system is using the environmental data from the greenhouse attached sensors provide the accurate diagnosis and recipes, which supports to product clean crops. There are no need to visit the greenhouse because our system is based on mobile devices that obtain the information in the greenhouse, which makes management in efficient with little number of people. This wort builds simply virtual greenhouse model that assembles system component of environmental sensor for performance analysis and offers a PDA view of the greenhouse status.

There has been proposed many simplification algorithms for effectively decreasing large-volumed polygonal surface data. These algorithms apply their own cost function for collapse to one of fundamental simplification unit, such as vertex, edge and triangle, and minimize the simplification error occurred in each simplification steps. Most of cost functions adopted in existing works use the error estimation method based on distance optimization. Unfortunately, it is hard to define the local characteristics of surface data using distance factor alone, which is basically scalar component. Therefore, the algorithms cannot preserve the characteristic features in surface areas with high curvature and, consequently, loss the detailed shape of original mesh in high simplification ratio. In this paper, we consider the vector component, such as surface orientation, as one of factors for cost function. The surface orientation is independent upon scalar component, distance value. This means that we can reconsider whether or not to preserve them as the amount of vector component, although they are elements with low scalar values. In addition, we develop a simplification algorithm based on half-edge collapse manner, which use the proposed cost function as the criterion for removing elements. In half-edge collapse, using one of endpoints in the edge represents a new vertex after collapse operation. The approach is memory efficient and effectively applicable to the rendering system requiring real-time transmission of large-volumed surface data.

Due to not only proven stability and reliability but a significant investment and years of accumulated -experience and knowledge, legacy systems have supported the core business applications of a number of organizations over many years. While the emergence of Web-based e-business environments requires externalizing core business processes to the Web. This is a competitive advantage in the new economy. Consequently, organizations now need to mine the business value buried in the legacy systems for reuse in new e-business applications. In this paper we suggest a systematic approach to mining components that perform specific business services and that consist of the legacy system's assets to be leveraged on the modem platform. The proposed activities are divided into several tasks. First, use cases that realize the business processes are captured. Secondly, a design model is constructed for each identified use case in order to integrate the use cases with the similar functionalities. Thirdly, we identify component candidates from the design model and then adjust the component candidates by considering common elements among the candidate components. And also business components are divided into three more fine-grained components to deploy them onto J2EE/EJB environments. finally, we define the interfaces of components which provide functionalities of the components as operations.

DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) is a new media service that can provide CD quality audio, various data service, interactive and high quality mobile communications through popular media such as terrestrial broadcasting, satellite, cable TV, and internet. In this paper, a new EPG(Electronic Program Guide) application model is proposed. The model is based on DAB and combines a DAB receiver and PCs so that it can take advantages of using various multimedia services and plenty of internet contents. The developed EPSD(EPG Provider System on DAB) has Web-based Server/Client structure and povides EPG functionalities to client PCs over internet. Therefore, the DAB receiver can be smaller and cheaper, and can develop abundant data services on internet. It can also provide high quality video services and be expected to become an important component in future home network systems.

Article-related product recommender system is an emerging e-commerce service which recommends items based on association in contexts between items and articles. Current services recommend based on the similarity between tags of articles and items, which is deficient not only due to the high cost in manual tagging but also low accuracies in recommendation. As a component of novel article-related item recommender system, we propose a new method for tagging item images based on pre-defined categories. We suggest a hypernetwork-based algorithm for learning association between images, which is represented by visual words, and categories of products. Learned hypernetwork are used to assign multiple tags to unlabeled item images. We show the ability of our method with a product set of real-world online shopping-mall including 1,251 product images with 10 categories. Experimental results not only show that the proposed method has competitive tagging performance compared with other classifiers but also present that the proposed multi-tagging method based on hypernetworks improves the accuracy of tagging.

Multivariate processes, such as large scale power plants or chemical processes are operated in very hazardous environment, which can lead to significant human and material losses if a fault occurs. On-line monitoring technology, therefore, is essential to detect system faults. In this paper, the ICA-based fault detection method is conducted using three different multivariate process data. Fault detection procedure based on ICA is divided into off-line and on-line processes. The off-line process determines a threshold for fault detection by using the obtained dataset when the system is normal. And the on-line process computes statistics of query vectors measured in real-time. The fault is detected by comparing computed statistics and previously defined threshold. For comparison, the PCA-based fault detection method is also implemented in this paper. Experimental results show that the ICA-based fault detection method detects the system faults earlier and better than the PCA-based method.

Although two-dimensional principal component analysis (2DPCA) has been shown to be successful in face recognition system, it is still very sensitive to illumination variations. To reduce the effect of these variations, texture-based techniques are used due to their robustness to these variations. In this paper, we explore several texture-based techniques and determine the most appropriate one to be used with 2DPCA-based techniques for face recognition. We also propose a new distance metric computation in 2DPCA called Row Assembled Matrix Distance (RowAMD). Experiments on Yale Face Database, Extended Yale Face Database B, AR Database and LFW Database reveal that the proposed RowAMD distance computation method outperforms other conventional distance metrics when Local Line Binary Pattern (LLBP) and Multi-scale Block Local Binary Pattern (MB-LBP) are used for face authentication and face identification, respectively. In addition to this, the results also demonstrate the robustness of the proposed RowAMD with several texture-based techniques.

A mesh node, a component of a mesh network, is connected with the network by dynamic routing using routing protocol and collects the information of adjacent or connected mesh nodes for its self-management and settings. Also, it relays packets between the mesh nodes and provides AP(Access Point) with its corresponding functions based on IEEE 802.11 a/b/g for clients' access to the network. In this paper, the study focused on the design and performance tests of Wireless Mesh Network(WMN) which is applied to the wireless communication network for the CBTC(Communications Based Train Control) system. The WMN was established on a K-AGT test-line (Kyeongsan city, Gyeongsangbuk-do), and to verify the applicability, its operation and performances are checked by measuring the data throughput, delay latency, quality measurements such as transmission loss, radio interference and path recovery and setup between the on-board and wayside.
