  • 모바일폰, MP3 플레이어, PDA와 같은 개인 휴대용 임베디드 기기가 다양해지면서, 각 기기의 부팅 시간은 제품 경쟁력을 위해 개발자가 고려해야할 중요한 이슈가 되었다. 이를 위해 Disable Console[1], Kernel XIP[2], IDENoProbe[3] 등의 기술이 제안되었지만, 부팅 시간의 80%를 차지하는 디바이스 초기화와 드라이버 등록에 대한 고려가 부족하다는 점에서 한계를 가진다. 본 연구에서는 부팅 시에 불필요한 IDE나 다른 인터페이스 채널의 초기화 과정 및 디바이스 드라이버의 등록과정을 생략하고, 그 과정을 부팅이 완료된 후로 지연시킴으로써 부팅 시간을 단축시키는 방법을 제안한다. 본 연구를 이용할 경우 부팅 시에 불필요한 IDE 인터페이스 채널의 초기화를 생략함으로써 기존 시스템의 부팅 시간에 비해 약 7초 정도 (일반 리눅스 부팅 시간의 약 14.15% 개선)의 성능 향상을 기대할 수 있으며, 나아가 부팅 과정의 80% 정도를 차지하는 디바이스 드라이버의 등록 과정의 일부를 생략하여 부팅 성능을 개선할 수 있는 실험적 근거를 제시하였다.

  • Because the brightness of an AMOLED is determined by the flowing current, each pixel of AMOLED operates via A current driving method. Therefore, it is necessary to supply power to adjust the amount of current according to THE user's requirement for AMOLED driving. In this study, an IP driver block was designed and a simulation was conducted for an AMOLED display, which supplies power as selected by users. The IP driver design focused on regulating the output power due to the OLED characteristics for the diode electric current according to the voltage to be activated by pulse-skipping mode (PSM) under low loads, and 1.5 MHz pulse-width modulation (PWM) for medium/high loads. The IP driver was designed to eliminate the ringing effects appearing from the dis-continue mode (DCM) of the step-up converter. The ringing effects destroy the power switch within the IC, or increase the EMI to the surrounding elements. The IP driver design minimized this through a ringing killer circuit. Mobile applications were considered to enable true shut-down capability by designing the standby current to fall below $1{\mu}A$ to disable it. The driver proposed in this paper can be applied effectively to the same system as the AMOLED display dual power management circuit.

  • In this paper, a 256Kb EEPROM IP aimed at battery applications using a single supply of 1.5V which is embedded into an MCU is designed. In the conventional cross-coupled VPP (boosted voltage) charge pump using a body-potential biasing circuit, cross-coupled PMOS devices of 5V in it can be broken by the junction or gate oxide breakdown due to a high voltage of 8.53V applied to them in exiting the program or erase mode. Since each pumping node is precharged to the input voltage of the pumping stage at the same time that the output node is precharged to VDD in the cross-coupled charge pump, a high voltage of above 5.5V is prevented from being applied to them and thus the breakdown does not occur. Also, all erase, even program, odd program, and all program modes are supported to reduce the times of erasing and programming 256 kilo bits of cells. Furthermore, disturbance test time is also reduced since disturbance is applied to all the 256 kilo bits of EEPROM cells at once in the cell disturb test modes to reduce the cell disturbance testing time. Lastly, a CG driver with a short disable time to meet the cycle time of 40ns in the erase-verify-read mode is newly proposed.

  • There is a growing awareness that physical barriers affect the level of independence of people with disabilities. Many researchers insist that barrier free design could influence independence living and quality of life of the disabled. The purpose of this study is to find out the effects of accessible design features of house and public facilities on quality of life of disabled people. A total of 189 questionnaires from the disabled who visited public welfare facilities was analyzed. In order to find out what variables among accessible features in housing and public spaces impact quality of life, multiple regression analysis was carried using SPSS 14. The results showed that accessible designs significantly influence quality of life of the disable. The main reason in which the disabled have difficulties when they move outside is a lack of accessible amenities and facilities. Particularly in house design, accessible main entrance route and accessible main entrance door, and removal of floor level significantly affects quality of life of the disabled. For public spaces, accessible main entrance and installation of ramp or removal of floor levels of main entrance and corridor increase quality of life people with disabilities. This paper suggested that the improvement in housing and public space, in which regulation or bylaws do not specify, should be made to increase accessibility for life quality of the disabled.

  • In wireless networks, cooperation is necessary for many protocols, such as routing, clock synchronization, and security. It is known that cooperator nodes suffer greatly from problems such as increasing energy consumption. Therefore, rational nodes have no incentive to cooperatively forward traffic for others. A rational node is different from a malicious node. It is a node that makes the best decision in each state (cooperate or non-cooperate). In this paper, game theory is used to analyze the cooperation between nodes. An evolutionary game has been investigated using two nodes, and their strategies have been compared to find the best one. Subsequently, two approaches, one based on a genetic algorithm (GA) and the other on learning automata (LA), are presented to incite nodes for cooperating in a noisy environment. As you will see later, the GA strategy is able to disable the effect of noise by using a big enough chromosome; however, it cannot persuade nodes to cooperate in a noisefree environment. Unlike the GA strategy, the LA strategy shows good results in a noise-free environment because it has good agreement in cooperation-based strategies in both types of environment (noise-free and noisy).

  • A 512-bit Task Programmable ROM has been designed and fabricated using PMOS technology. The content of the memory was written through the gate pattern during the fabrication process, and was checked by displaying the output of the chip on an oscilloscope with 512(32$\times$16) matrix points. The operation of the chip was surcessful with operating voltage from -6V to -l2V, The power consumption and propagation delay time have been measured to be 3mW and 13 $\mu$sec, respectively at -6 Volt. The power consunption increased to 27mW and propagation delay time decreased to 3$\mu$sec at -12V. The output of the chip was capable of driving the input of a TTL gate directly and retained a high impedence state when the chip solect function disabled the output.

  • This paper first presents two supply chain design problems: 1) a factory location setting and factory selection problem, and 2) a factory location setting and factory/supplier selection problem. The first involves a number of location known retailers choosing one factory to supply their demands from a number of factories whose locations are to be determined. The goal is to minimize the transportation and manufacturing cost to satisfy the demands. The problem is then augmented into the second problem, where the procurement cost of the raw materials from a chosen material supplier (from a number of suppliers) is considered for each factory. Economic beneficial is taken into account in the cost evaluation. Therefore, the partner selections will influence the cost of the supply chain significantly. To solve these problems, an agent gaming and genetic algorithm hybrid method (AGGAHM) is proposed. The AGGAHM consecutively and alternatively enable and disable the advancement of agent gaming and the evolution of genetic computation. Computation results on solving a number of examples by the AGGAHM were compared with those from methods of a general genetic algorithm and a mutual frozen genetic algorithm. Results showed that the AGGAHM outperforms the methods solely using genetic algorithms. In addition, various parameter settings are tested and discussed to facilitate the supply chain designs.
