In this paper, we implement and verify performance monitor for parallel signal processing system, using DSP Starter Kit(DSK) of which the basic Processor is TMS302C6711 chip. The key ideas of this performance monitor is, using Real Time Data Exchange(RTDX) for the Purpose of real-time data transfer and function of DSP/BIOS, the ability to measure the Performance measure like DSP workload, memory usage, and bridge traffic. In the simulation, FFT, 2D FFT, Matrix Multiplication, and Fir Filter, which are widely used DSP algorithms, have been employed. Using performance monitor and Code Composer Studio from Texas Instrument(Tl) , the result has been recorded according to different frequencies, data sizes, and buffer sizes for a single wave file. The accuracy of our performance monitor has been verified by comparing those recorded results.

Product designers sketch various ideas of foreground figures(detail design) onto background figures(basic form) and evaluate numerous combinations of them in the late stages of design process. Designers have to test their ideas elaborately with a high-fidelity physical model that looks like a real product. However, due to the requirements of time and expense in making high-fidelity design models, it is impossible to evaluate such a number of combinatorial solutions of background and foreground figures. Contrary to digital models, physical design models are not easily modifiable and so designers cannot easily develope ideas through iterative design-evaluation process. To address these problems, we proposed a new concept 'Augmented Plasticity' that gives morphological editability to a rigid physical object using Augmented Reality technology and implemented the idea as Digital Skin system. Digital Skin system figures out the position and orientation of object surface with ARToolKit visual marker and superimposes a deformed surface image seamlessly using differential rendering method. We tried to apply Digital Skin system to detail design, redesign of product, and material exploration task. In consequence, it was found that Digital Skin system has potential to allow designers to implement and test their ideas very efficiently in the late stages of design process.

In these days, most countries effort is to raise competitive people for increasing creativity. Korea also decided human character "Global Creative Person" and prepare for the future. Therefore many universities and laboratories suggest various educational model for increasing creativity. One of the educational model for increasing creativity is Computer Education. That is good at increasing creativity, especially programming education because it is a more effective education. Thus, this research suggests that program for increasing creativity through developing "SRD Program". SRD Program is for increasing creativity and it applies to Scratch Programming, Robot Programming, and Digital Kit. Furthermore, SRD Program is developed and is based on Bruner's Spiral curriculum. Therefore, this research suggests increasing diverse programs for enhancing creativity and there are expectation for raising "Global Creative Person" through SRD Program.

In this paper, we would like to share our ongoing research on global population and demographic shifts and the corresponding need for diverse responses. As population growth varies worldwide, the pressing issue is the current global housing shortage. The USA alone lacks 4 million homes, underlining the urgency for new construction and renewal of existing. Our focus is primarily on new building processes, which must also incorporate elements of renewal for future sustainability. Our research addresses several key questions: How will roles for construction professionals change? What should be the primary goal of the design process? What types of technologies are currently available, and which aspects of the process can be enhanced with AI? A significant part of our study is exploring sustainable building methods that reduce embodied carbon and increase speed of construction. Our goal is to extend the transition from smart homes to cities, analyzing the evolution towards smart communities and cities. A critical aspect of our research is the 'kit of parts concept, involving prefabrication and modular construction. This approach is essential for both rebuilding and new projects, potentially lowering costs in manufacturing and design for long term. Lastly, we present a detailed comparison of the construction industry with manufacturing.

In this study, to prevent accidents in underground facilities during excavation, we developed a Lv.3 automated control system that can be configured as an electronic control system without changing the existing hydraulic system in a general excavator and utilized digital map information of underground facilities. We aimed to develop a strategy to prevent accidents caused by operator error. To implement this, a real-time excavator bucket end position recognition and control system was developed through angle measurement of the boom, arm, and bucket using an electronic joystick, RTK-GPS, and angle sensors. In addition, excavators are large, machine-based equipment, and it is difficult to control overshoot due to inertia with feedback control using position recognition information of the bucket tip. Therefore, feed-forward control is used to calculate the moving speed of the bucket tip in real-time to determine the target position. We developed a technology that can converge and verified the performance of the developed system through actual vehicle installation and field tests.

본 논문에서는 블루투스 4.0(BLE) 기반의 비콘을 이용하여, 공항에서 물건을 찾을 때, 물건(가방)에 비콘을 장착하고 비콘의 신호를 받아 알림(Notification)을 주는 System으로써, 사용자의 편리성을 위하여 안드로이드 4.3이상 버전의 스마트 폰 Application으로 개발하였다. 스마트 폰과 비콘 사이에는 블루투스를 기술을 이용하여 통신하며, 비콘은 신호를 송신, 스마트 폰에서는 수신한다. 이러한 기능으로 Estimote사의 공개된 Software Development Kit(이하 SDK)를 바탕으로 개발을 진행하였다. SDK의 대표적인 기능으로 비콘의 정보와 연결 상태를 관리하는 객체, 그리고 Listener를 통해 범위 내 비콘을 탐색하는 기능을 정의할 수 있다. 또한 User Interface를 고려하여 사용자의 편이성과 접근성에 중점을 두어, 화면 구성에 많은 노력을 기울였다. 따라서 사용자의 배경지식, 연령대를 고려하더라도 쉽게 이용이 가능하도록 개발하였다.

Elderly people living alone need smart care for independent living. Recent advances in artificial intelligence have allowed for easier interaction by a computer-controlled virtual human. This technology can realize services such as medicine intake guide for the elderly living alone. In this paper, we suggest an intelligent virtual human and present our virtual human toolkit for controlling virtual humans for a senior citizen living alone. To make the virtual human motion, we suggest our authoring toolkit to map gestures, emotions, voices of virtual humans. The toolkit configured to create virtual human interactions allows the response of a suitable virtual human with facial expressions, gestures, and voice.

As high quality digital cameras become readily available, digital cameras are being used not only for simple picture recording but also as information storing media in various fields. However, due to the fact that the spectral responses of the camera sensors are different from color matching functions of the CIE standard observer, the color can not be measured using these cameras. This study shows a method for converting camera image to sRGB image, in which color information is preserved. The transfer matrix between camera output signals and CIE stimulus values was determined using a multiple regression method with Macbeth ColorChecker as target colors. The CIE stimulus values for camera output signals can be mapped with a transfer matrix, and these values are converted to sRGB signals. As the result of testing a Kodak DC220 digital camera, the average color difference of Macbeth ColorChecker between true and displayed colors was 2.1 $\Delta$ $E_{ab}$ $^{*}$.$^{*}$.

A frequency in electrical power system changes by the load fluctuation in utility grid, has an influence on a connected generator, and ultimately brings a big trouble in the power system. Therefore, a quick measurement of system frequency and governor control of power system is a very important factor in the reliability and the economic feasibility. Electromagnetic frequency relays in the past had the large power consumption and the difficulty of accurate measurement. After Researched and developed digital relays are very affected by the noise and the distortion, and the recently developed Microprocessor relays have problems of expensive device and time when measuring the frequency at 50[ms]. In this study, An improve algorithm that measures the power system frequency quickly and accurately is suggested, simulated by using Matlab and programmed using C code through DSP6713 KIT. This algorithm is tested to the arbitrary voltage waveform input. The results show that the suggested algorithm is effective in the accurate and quick frequency measurements.
