In the current RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) middleware systems based on the EPCglobal standard, the tag data received by multiple readers are processed sequentially in FIFO (First In First Out) order. Considering the priority of RFID reader makes the RFID system more flexible and improve the data transaction throughput in the service environment where important tag data with high priority for a specific reader. In this study, we propose a new RFID middleware system architecture supporting priority service with the Buffer Management Component. Our proposals are compliant with the EPCglobal ALE (Application Level Events) standard interface for middleware systems and their clients. To verify the efficiency of this proposed system, simulation is used for evaluation.

A truss-braced wing (TBW) aircraft has recently received increasing attention due to higher aerodynamic efficiency compared to conventional cantilever wing aircraft. For conceptual TBW aircraft design, we developed a propulsion-and-airframe integrated design environment by replacing a semi-empirical turbofan engine model with a thermodynamic cycle-based one built upon the numerical propulsion system simulation (NPSS). The constructed NPSS model benefitted TBW aircraft design study, as it could handle engine installation effects influencing engine fuel efficiency. The NPSS model also contributed to broadening TBW aircraft design space, for it provided turbofan engine design variables involving a technology factor reflecting progress in propulsion technology. To effectively consolidate the NPSS propulsion model with the TBW airframe model, we devised a rapid, approximate substitute of the NPSS model by reduced-order modeling (ROM) to resolve difficulties in model integration. In addition, we formed an artificial neural network (ANN) that associates engine component attributes evaluated by object-oriented weight analysis of turbine engine (WATE++) with engine design variables to determine engine weight and size, both of which bring together the propulsion and airframe system models. Through propulsion-andairframe design space exploration, we optimized TBW aircraft design for fuel saving and revealed that a simple engine model neglecting engine installation effects may overestimate TBW aircraft performance.

This paper overviews the design details of the cluster file system $\textrm{SANique}^{TM}$ on the SAN environment. $\textrm{SANique}^{TM}$ has the capability of transferring user data from shared SAN disk to client application without control of centralized file server. We, especially, focus on the characteristics and functions of recovery manager CRM of $\textrm{SANique}^{TM}$. The process component for failure detection and its overall procedure are described. We define the split-brain problem that cannot be easily detected in cluster file systems and also propose the recovery management method based on SAN disk in order to detect and solve the split-brain situation.

In this paper, a sensor network system for providing u-health services is suggested and is implemented. It steadily collects biological data of resident people and automatically detects emergency situations. LEID (Lighting Embedded Information Device) nodes are the most essential component of the sensor network. They embed sensor network technology into lightening devices which are indispensable to most living spaces. To verify practicality of the proposed u-health system, a prototypical system is realized in the Smart Home Industrialization Support Center at Kookmin University, and is tested within many practical circumstances. The proposed u-health system can be used at various places where many patients are continuously cared.

There werer many researches on the switch system for high speed netowrk such as B-ISDN and the server system for the multimedia services respectively. But, in case of simple connection of these two systems, we have to suffer the bottlenck problem of data transmission, and pay the wasteful expenditure because of duplicated architecture of both systems such as interconnecting network at the switch and the server. Therefore, we propse the unified architecture of switehces and servers, which can be used as switches and servers simultaneously. This is based on the hybercube structure. The links are used iterconnection network of switch system, and each node has the subscriber subsystem and the server subsystem. The proposed architecure has the benifits as follows; the easy espansion of capacity due to the scalability,the simple system development and maintenance because of the equivalance of each nodes, the high reliability against the fault of nodes and links due to the existence of the many alternative links between nodes, the easy flow and QoS managment due to the non-blocking data transmission between any two nodes, the flexible adaptation for additional new services owing to simple insertion server board to node. In this paper, we present overal configuration and node component of proposed architecture, and the procesing flow for the various services.

The CCDs are widely used in astronomical observations either in direct imaging use or spectroscopic mode. However, the areas of available sensors are too small for large imaging format. One possibility to obtain large detection area is to assemble mosaics of CCD, and drive them simultaneously. Parallel driving of many CCDs together rules out the possibility of individual tuning; however, such optimisation is very important, when the ultimate low light level performance is required, particularly for new, or mixed devices. In this work, a new concept is explored for an entirely novel approach, where the drive waveforms are multiplexed and interleaved. This simultaneously reduces the number of leadout connections and permits individual optimisation efficiently. The digital controller can be designed within a single EPLD (Erasable Programmable Logic Device) chip produced by a CAD software package, where most of the digital controller circuits are integrated. This method can minimise the component. count., and improve the system efficiency greatly, based on earlier works by Han et a1. (1996, 1994). The system software has an open architecture to permit convenient modification by the user, to fit their specific purposes. Some variable system control parameters can be selected by a user with a wider range of choice. The digital controller design concept allows great flexibility of system parameters by the software, specifically for the compatibility to deal with any number of mixed CCDs, and in any format, within the practical limit.
