In this study, Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are investigated as a practical solution to the challenge of designing an optimal platform for implementing algorithms in a wireless sensing unit for structuralhealth monitoring. Inherent advantages, such as tremendous processing power, coupled with reconfigurable and flexible architecture render FPGAs a prime candidate for the processing core in an optimal wireless sensor unit, especially when handling Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and system identification algorithms. This paper presents an effort to create a proof-of-concept unit, wherein an off-the-shelf FPGA development board, available at a price comparable to a microprocessor development board, was adopted. Data processing functions, including windowing, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), and peak detection, were implemented in the FPGA using a Matlab Simulink-based high-level abstraction tool rather than hardware descriptive language. Simulations and laboratory tests were carried out to validate the design.

This paper presents an information collection and a novel inference technique for evaluation of power system operation state. In most developing countries, power demands are steadily increasing and consequently power systems are becoming larger and more complicated. In addition, power system deregulations further complicate the power system operational tasks, which are resulted in prevailing wide area blackouts worldwide. In this paper, we proposed an effective information collection and operating state evaluation methods using a knowledge-based system. The RTS-79 24 bus system is used as a test system. The power system model is composed with JESS templates and included in the knowledge-base as a part of fixed facts. Dynamic informations are collected from various analysis results and actual operational data. Inferences are performed with rules expressed with terms in different abstraction levels. Future research will be concentrated on intelligent contingency selections for preventing wide area blackouts.

This study proposes evaluation dimensions of object-oriented systems modelling tools and activities available in object-oriented systems development practices. The dimensions ale developed based on previous research in cognitive psychology, information systems modeling study, and object-oriented systems analysis arid design areas. The proposed dimension is composed of two dimensions. The one dimension includes abstraction levels of modelling and the other includes process and representation in modeling activities. Experts on object-oriented modeling were selected to evaluate the practical validity of the proposed dimensions and applications of major object-oriented modeling tools during systems development project. Most of the tools were observed to be used for representing objects rather than for modeling the process of related objects. The proposed modeling dimension will be evaluated for acquiring general validity in future empirical research.

Modern VLSI designs get increasingly complex and time-to-market constraints get tighter. Using high level languages is one of the most promising solutions for improving design productivity by raising the level of abstraction. In high level synthesis process, most important step is scheduling. In this paper, we propose fast and efficient scheduling method under timing constraint based on list scheduling. Experimental results on well known data path intensive designs show fast execution times (less than 0.5 sec) and similar results when compared to optimal solutions [1].

With the increasing performance and density of VLSI scircuits as well as the popularity of portable devices such as personal digital assitance, power consumption has emerged as an important issue in the design of electronic systems. Low power design techniqeus have been pursued at all design levels. However, it is more effective to attempt to reduce power dissipation at higher levels of abstraction which allow wider view. In this paper, we propose a simultaneous scheduling and binding scheme which increases the correlation between cosecutive inputs to an operation so that the switched capacitance of execution units is reduced in datapath-dominated circuits. The proposed method is implemented and integrated into the scheduling and assignment part of HYPER synthesis environment. Compared with original HYPER synthesis system, average power saving of 23.0% in execution units and 14.2% in the whole circuits, ar eobtained for a set of benchmark examples.

In recent years, one of deep learning models called Deep Belief Network (DBN) which formed by stacking restricted Boltzman machine in a greedy fashion has beed widely used for classification and recognition. With an ability to extracting features of high-level abstraction and deal with higher dimensional data structure, this model has ouperformed outstanding result on image and speech recognition. In this research, we assess the applicability of deep learning in dna classification level. Since the training phase of DBN is costly expensive, specially if deals with DNA sequence with thousand of variables, we introduce a new encoding method, using decimal-binary vector to represent the sequence as input to the model, thereafter compare with one-hot-vector encoding in two datasets. We evaluated our proposed model with different contrastive algorithms which achieved significant improvement for the training speed with comparable classification result. This result has shown a potential of using decimal-binary vector on DBN for DNA sequence to solve other sequence problem in bioinformatics.

To investigate groundwater variation characteristics in the Hancheon watershed, Jeju Island, an integrated hydrologic component analysis was carried out. For this purpose, SWAT-MODFLOW which is an integrated surface-groundwater model was applied to the watershed for continuous watershed hydrologic analysis as well as groundwater modeling. First, ephemeral stream characteristics of Hancheon watershed can be clearly simulated which is unlikely to be shown by a general watershed hydrologic model. Second, the temporally varied groundwater recharge can be properly obtained from SWAT and then spatially distributed groundwater recharge can be made by MODFLOW. Finally, the groundwater level variation was simulated with distributed groundwater pumping data. Since accurate recharge as well as abstraction can be reflected into the groundwater modeling, more realistic hydrologic component analysis and groundwater modeling could be possible.

본 논문에서는 자율 주행 로봇을 위한 계층화된 소프트웨어 구조 제안한다. 제안된 소프트웨어 구조에서는 데이터 종류를 추상화 단계에 따라 수치형 데이터, 명제형 데이터, 사실형 데이터로 분류했다. 그리고, 사용하는 데이터의 종류에 따라 계층을 분류해서, 실행 계층, 제어 계층, 추론 계층을 구성하고 각 계층의 기능을 정의했다. 또한 각 계층별 데이터 특성에 따른 고유의 데이터 처리 방법을 적용하였으며, 처리 결과에 대한 계층간 연동 구조에 대해서도 제안한다. 이러한 계층의 명확한 구분을 통하여 실시간 문제이면서도 복잡한 자료 처리 구조를 가지는 자율 주행 로봇의 소프트웨어 구조를 체계화하였고, 각 계층별 소프트웨어를 콤포넌화하여 재 사용성을 높이게 되었다.

In the new database applications such as office information systems, CAD/CAM, and AI, it is required to support not only fixed Is-A and Part-Of relationships but also various user-defined dynamic relationships including complicate constraints. However, existing object-oriented systems have many weaknesses in managing those complex relationships. This paper presents the Object-Oriented Relationship data Model (OORM) which is designed to provide facilities for modeling complex relationships into object oriented databases using abstraction concept. In the model, various integrity and consistency constraints related to the relationships can be also represented. And this paper presents a query language, ORSQL(Object Relationship SQL). ORSQL is a nonprocedural query language having similiar syntax to the standard SQL and supporting OORM's operations.

The present much information of internet has to exist for innumerable user so that couldn't satisfy there's a variety of demand. so they have a demerit that search unnecessary information. However Web service is different with other mass media because It is possible that enable Mass Customization for Personalization strategy. In The paper suggest reasoning system that detect user connection location by using indirect abstraction techniques a kind of Case-based reasoning techniques.
