An intelligent accurate sun tracking controller for solar lighting system was developed. This controller can detect the faulty sensor and correct the error signal based on Principle Component Analysis theory. A fuzzy controller was developed to control the tracker by using the collected sensor signal for precise position control. Also a multiple range searching sensor module for sun tracking was designed. To show the validity of the developed system, some experiments in the field were illustrated.

New trends such as electronic commerce, virtual organizations, e-business applications, etc. increase the dependence of production management on information software systems and contribute to the needs for global, distributed object systems. This paper presents a component based approach for production management systems under the multi-tier distributed information system architecture using UML(Unified Modeling Language), CORBA(Common Object Request Broker Architecture) and XML(eXtensible Markup Language) technologies, and propose rules for mapping a UML class diagram to a XML DTD (Document Type Definition). And we adapt it to the prototype system implementation. The components are implemented by CORBA and we use XML messages for the information exchange between components.

This paper presents a structural health monitoring method of aircraft reciprocating engine using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) which analyzes vibration expressed by Averaged Normalized Power Spectral Density (ANPSD). Because ANPSD of the rotating shaft is sensitive to the rotating speed, this paper proposes to use a post-processing method of ANPSD is used to reduce the sensitivity. The PCA extracts compressed information from the post-processed ANPSDs and the information means the difference between current and normal cases of the engine. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method to detect abnormal cases of the engine.

In this paper, we show how such enhancement of Farwell-Donchin BCI enables a fresh, inexperienced user to achieve quickly an accurate BCI control with a high information transfer rate. This paper presents the results of a BCI experiment where the participant, who had no previous BCI experience, obtained, in about 20 min, a highly reliable and fast control over the BCI spelling device based on the Farwell-Donchin paradigm. Offline analysis showed that the high performance of the BCI was, to a high extent, due to the use of the ERP component N1, in addition to component P300, which has been considered the only ERP component important for the prediction of user's choice in the Farwell-Donchin paradigm in many publications.

To quickly determine the effect of the substitute component on the machine's performance is very important in the design and manufacturing processes. And minimizing machine cost and maximizing machine quality mandate predictability of machine accuracy. In this study, in order to evaluate the effects of the component's geometric errors and dimensions on the machining accuracy of gantry-type 5-axis machining centers, a geometric error analysis and virtual manufacturing system are developed based on the mathematical model for the shape generation motion of machine tool considering the component's geometric errors and dimensions, the solid modeling techniques and so on.

We propose a template matching method for component inspection of SMD assembly system. To discriminate wrong assembled components, the input image of component is matched with its standard image by template matching algorithm. For a fast inspection system, the calculation time of matching algorithm should be reduced. Since the standard images of all components located in a PCB are stored in computer, it is desirable to reduce the memory size of standard image. We apply the discrete wavelet transformation to reduce the image size as well as the calculation time. Only 7% memory of the BMP image is used to discriminate goodness or badness of components assembly. Comparative results are presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed method.

Recently, the component model based on the Exogenous Connector has been proposed in which controls are separated from computation by managing the beginning and result of method calls in the connector. Although it could be loosely coupled between components, it has a problem that is a potential preponderance of element objects of the system by increasing the number of connectors and connection levels. In this paper we propose the Tree Component Model with the Hybrid Message Passing that combines direct and indirect message passing. In our model, components are wrapped by interfaces and controls are separated from computation by only using their interface references. There is a unique feature that the composition structure of components becomes the tree always. As a result of demonstration and comparison, it is found that the Tree Component Model is applicable practically and decreases objects to mediate message passing and build the system.

An OLAP system is a decision support tool with which a user can analyze the information interactively in the various aspects. Applying CBD(Component-based Development), which treats software as components, to implement an OLAP system has limitation in the flexibility and reusability. To overcome those limitations, we propose a method of CBD(template-based CBD) which integrates the concept of template and CBD. Through the implementation of an OLAP system with the proposed TCBD, we show that our proposal is more efficient in flexibility and reusability than CBD and decreases the period of time for the development, test, and debug.

An analysis was conducted to predict technical trends for the highly efficient absorption refrigeration system. The study was based on submitted patent during January 1981 and December 2000 in Korea, Japan and U.S.A. The analysis are divided with two categories as component technology and refrigeration type technology. The analysis was focused on component technologies rather than the absorption cycle or system technologies.

Recently, trends of information technology development include offerings of service for personalization, intelligence, and convergence. The research suggested a new tour system that tourists can make their tour packages by applying Semantic Web technology. The system includes ontologies and inference rules for offering intelligent and personalized service. Our system called MYT (Make Your Tour-package) was successfully demonstrated by employing realistic scenarios. Current version of the MYT system needs manager's intervention to link and integrate automatically ontology subsystem and Web service. In further study, the MYT will be extended to the system including a component integrating automatically subsystems and a component capturing and processing context data from RFID/USN.
