We proposed a new system for the postural balance rehabilitation training. For the purpose, we used the virtual hiking system using virtual reality technology. We evaluated the system by measuring the parameters such as path deviation, path deviation velocity, cycling time, and head movement. From our results, we verified the usefulness of virtual reality technology in rehabilitation. Our results showed that this system was effective postural balance rehabilitation training device and might be useful as the clinical equipment.

Using nitrogen as the limiting nutrient, the default version of a microplankton-detritus model linked chlorophyll concentration to the autotroph nitrogen. However, phosphorus dynamics were added to simulate the results of a microcosm experiment. Using standard parameter values with a single value of microheterotroph fraction in the microplankton taken from the observed range, the best simulation successfully captured the main features of the time-courses of chlorophyll and particulate organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus, with root-mean-square error equivalent to 29% of particulate concentration. A standard version of microbiological model assumes complete internal cycling of nutrient elements; adding a term for ammonium and phosphate excretion by microheterotrophs did not significantly improve predictions. Relaxing the requirement for constant microheterotroph fraction resulted in an autotroph-heterotroph model AH, with dynamics resembling those of a Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system. AH fitted the microcosm data worse than did MP, justifying the suppression of Lotka-Volterra dynamics in MP. The paper concludes with a discussion of possible reasons for the success of the simple bulk dynamics of MP in simulating microplankton behaviour.

In this paper, we propose an energy efficient and multimedia traffic friendly MAC protocol (EEMF-MAC) that controls sender's wakeup period based on the data packet's transmission urgency and the receiver's wakeup periods based on the received data packet traffic loads. The protocol is useful for applications such as object tracking, real time data gathering, in which priority-based packet transmission is required. The basic idea of EEMF-MAC is that it uses the priority concept with transmission urgency of sender's data packet to reduce the transmission delay of the urgent data and it also uses duty cycling technique in order to achieve energy efficiency. EEMF-MAC showed a better performance in energy efficiency and packet transmission delay compared to existing protocols, RI-MAC and EE-RI-MAC.

Wireless sensor networks for forest monitoring are typically deployed in fields in which manual intervention cannot be easily accessed. An interesting approach to extending the lifetime of sensor nodes is the use of energy harvested from the environment. Design constraints are application-dependent and based on the monitored environment in which the energy harvesting takes place. To reduce energy consumption, we designed a power management scheme that combines dynamic duty cycle scheduling at the network layer to plan node duty time. The dynamic duty cycle scheduling is realized based on a tier structure in which the network is concentrically organized around the sink node. In addition, the multi-paths preserved in the tier structure can be used to deliver residual packets when a path failure occurs. Experimental results show that the proposed method has a better performance.

TCP is considered as one of the major candidate transport protocols even for constrained IoT networks..In our previous work, we investigated the congestion control mechanism of the uIP TCP. Since the uIP TCP sets the window size to one segment by default, managing the retransmission timer is the primary approach to congestion control. However, the original uIP TCP sets the retransmission timer based on the fixed RTO, it performs poorly when a radio duty cycling mechanism is enabled and the hidden terminal problem is severe. In our previous work, we proposed a TCP retransmission timer adjustment scheme for uIP TCP which adopts the notion of weak RTT estimation of CoCoA, exponential backoffs with variable limits, and dithering. Although our previous work showed that the proposed retransmission timer adjustment scheme can improve performance, we observe that the scheme often causes a node to set the retransmission timer for an excessively too long time period. In this work, we show that slightly modifying the dithering mechanism of the previous scheme is effective for improving TCP fairness.

In this paper, we propose the effective operating device in the container freight station by applying the RTLS (Real Time Location System) that provides information on the container's location in real time so that the performance of the port operating system can be improved. For this, we proposed the improved dual cycling method made with the new application of two types of container's location & yard tractor's location information. we applied the RTLS to the container freight station to send the container location data to the operating system in real time; we designed the data on the Yard Tractor's location to be received via the GPS receiver and then be sent to the operating system in real time via the CDMA module. According to the analysis and evaluation of the performance of the proposed method, up to 24% of performance improvement was shown compared with the existing methods, in aspect of evaluation of work time, work time deviation and performance. Therefore, we proved that the RTLS and the GPS receiver are essential elements for efficient port operation.

4-probe resistivity measurement technique was used to study kinetics of hydrogen absorption-desorption on Pd film($520{\AA}$ thick) at room temperature upto 1 bar. Kinetics data are fitted well to 1st order kinetics equation in ${\alpha}$ and ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ phases. In ${\alpha}+{\alpha}^{\prime}$ phase, absorption kinetics was very complicated, but it could be explained partially with nucleation and growth process. Ln(dR/dt) vs. time plot gives rate constant k value(R is resistance of sample, t is time). k value for absorption is $4^{-6}{\times}10^{-4}/sec$ in ${\alpha}$ phase. k is increasing upto $4^{\times}10^{-2}/sec$ as hydrogen pressure increasing in ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ phase. k is proportional to ln(Pop/Peq), where Peq is equilibrium plateau pressure and Pop is the opposing pressure. In contrast to bulk sample k value was decreasing with increasing number of A-D cycling in ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ phase absorption.

The effect of temperature on ACF thermocompression bonding for FPD assembly was investigated, It was found that Au bumps on driver IC's were not bonded to the glass substrate when the bonding temperature was below $140^{\circ}C$ so bonds were made at temperatures of $163^{\circ}C$, $178^{\circ}C$ and $199^{\circ}C$ for further testing. The bonding time and pressure were constant to 3 sec and 3.038 MPa. To test bond reliability, FPD assemblies were subjected to thermal shock storage tests ($-30^{\circ}C$, $1\;Hr\;{\leftrightarrow}80^{\circ}C$, 1 Hr, 10 Cycles) and func! tionality was verified by driver testing. It was found all of FPDs were functional after the thermal cycling. Additionally, Au bumps were bonded using ACF's with higher conductive particle densities at bonding temperatures above $163^{\circ}C$. From the experimental results, when the bonding temperature was increased from $163^{\circ}C$ to $199^{\circ}C$, the curing time could be reduced and more conductive particles were retained at the bonding interface between the Au bump and glass substrate.
