The main problem with existing edge detection techniques is that they have many limitations in detecting edges for complex and diverse images that exist in the real world. This is because only edges of a defined shape are discovered based on an accurate definition of the edge. One of the methods to solve this problem is the cost minimization method. In the cost minimization method, cost elements and cost functions are defined and used. The cost function calculates the cost for the candidate edge model generated according to the candidate edge generation strategy, and if the cost is found to be satisfactory, the candidate edge model becomes the edge for the image. In this study, we proposed an enhanced candidate edge generation strategy to discover edges for more diverse types of images in order to improve the shortcoming of the cost minimization method, which is that it only discovers edges of a defined type. As a result, improved edge detection results were confirmed.

엣지 컴퓨팅(Edge Computing)은 인공지능(AI)을 데이터 소스와 근접한 환경에서 수행함으로써 IoT/CPS 기기를 클라우드에 통합하는데 발생하는 네트워크 대역폭 소모로 인한 비용 문제와 전송 지연 등의 문제 해결의 방안으로 주목받고 있다. 엣지 컴퓨팅 기기는 실 세계에 위치하여 인공지능 구현 기술을 구동 가능한 수준의 향상된 연산과 네트워크 연결을 제공하므로, 인적/물적 피해를 발생할 수 있는 사이버 테러에 악용되지 않도록 어플리케이션 무결성에 대한 고려가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 인공지능 구현 시 활용되는 파이썬(python) 과 같이 변조에 취약한 스크립트 언어로 구현된 엣지 컴퓨팅 어플리케이션을 컨테이너 이미지로 구성 후 전자서명을 하여 무결성을 보호하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 오픈소스 컨테이너 기술에서 제공하는 무결성 보호기술 (Docker Contents Trust)를 기반으로하며, 엣지 컴퓨팅 기기에서 허용된 컨테이너만 구동 가능하도록 컨테이너 서명 정보에 대한 화이트리스트와 Docker Client를 개선하여 적용하는 기법을 제시한다.

With the development of computing technology, the convergence of ICT with existing traditional industries is being attempted. In particular, with the recent advent of 5G, connectivity with numerous AuT (autonomous Things) in the real world as well as simple mobile terminals has increased. As more devices are deployed in the real world, the need for technology for devices to learn and act autonomously to communicate with humans has begun to emerge. This article introduces "Device to the Edge," a new computing paradigm that enables various devices in smart spaces (e.g., factories, metaverse, shipyards, and city centers) to perform ultra-reliable, low-latency and high-speed processing regardless of the limitations of capability and performance. The proposed technology, referred to as EdgeCPS, can link devices to augmented virtual resources of edge servers to support complex artificial intelligence tasks and ultra-proximity services from low-specification/low-resource devices to high-performance devices.

Heterogeneous computing is a technology that utilizes different types of processors to perform parallel processing. It maximizes task processing and energy efficiency by leveraging various computing resources such as CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. On the other hand, edge computing has developed with IoT and 5G technologies. It is a distributed computing that utilizes computing resources close to clients, thereby offloading the central server. It has evolved to intelligent edge computing combined with artificial intelligence. Intelligent edge computing enables total data processing, such as context awareness, prediction, control, and simple processing for the data collected on the edge. If heterogeneous computing can be successfully applied in the edge, it is expected to maximize job processing efficiency while minimizing dependence on the central server. In this paper, experiments were conducted to verify the feasibility of various parallel programming models on high-end and low-end edge devices by using benchmark applications. We analyzed the performance of five parallel programming models on the Raspberry Pi 4 and Jetson Orin Nano as low-end and high-end devices, respectively. In the experiment, OpenACC showed the best performance on the low-end edge device and OpenSYCL on the high-end device due to the stability and optimization of system libraries.

With the advancement of artificial intelligence and its various use cases, accessing it through edge computing environments is gaining traction. However, due to the nature of edge computing environments, efficient management and optimization of clusters distributed in different geographical locations is considered a major challenge. To address these issues, this paper proposes a centralization and automation tool called KubEVC-Agent based on Kubernetes. KubEVC-Agent centralizes the deployment, operation, and management of edge clusters and presents a use case of the data transformation for optimizing intra-cluster communication. This paper describes the components of KubEVC-Agent, its working principle, and experimental results to verify its effectiveness.

To be the design method supporting aesthetic ability of human, CAAD system should essentially recognize architectural form in the same way of human. In this study, visual perception process of human was analyzed to search proper computational method performing similar step of perception of it. Through the analysis of visual perception, vision was separated to low-level vision and high-level vision. Edge detection and neural network were selected to model after low-level vision and high-level vision. The 24 images of building, tree and landscape were processed by edge detection and trained by neural network. And 24 new images were used to test trained network. The test shows that trained network gives right perception result toward each images with low error rate. This study is on the meaning of artificial intelligence in design process rather than on the design automation strategy through artificial intelligence.

스마트 컨트랙트는 블록체인 상에서 실행되는 프로그램으로 복잡한 비즈니스 논리를 처리할 수 있다. 그러나 블록체인의 무결성과 조건에 따라 실행되는 특성을 이용한 악의적 사용으로 인하여 블록체인 보안에서 시급한 문제가 되고있다. 따라서 스마트 컨트랙트 취약성 탐지문제는 최근 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 기존 연구의 대부분이 단일 유형의 취약성 여부에 대한 탐지에만 초점이 맞춰져 있어 여러 유형의 취약성에 대한 동시 식별이 어렵다. 이 문제를 해결하고자 본 연구에서는 스마트 컨트랙트 소스코드 제어 흐름 그래프를 기반으로 그래프의 forward edge와 backward edge를 고려한 신경망으로 그래프 구조를 학습한 후 그래프 multi-label classification을 진행하여 다중 취약성을 탐지할 수 있는 모델을 제안한다.

Internet of Things (IoT) is a growing technology along with artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Recently, increasing cases of developing knowledge services using information collected from sensor data have been reported. Communication is required to connect the IoT and AI, and 5G mobile networks have been widely spread recently. IoT, AI services, and 5G mobile networks can be configured and used as sensor-mobile edge-server. The sensor does not send data directly to the server. Instead, the sensor sends data to the mobile edge for quick processing. Subsequently, mobile edge enables the immediate processing of data based on AI technology or by sending data to the server for processing. 5G mobile network technology is used for this data transmission. Therefore, this study examines the challenges, opportunities, and solutions used in each type of technology. To this end, this study addresses clustering, Hyperledger Fabric, data, security, machine vision, convolutional neural network, IoT technology, and resource management of 5G mobile networks.

Recently, studies have been conducted on intelligent transportation systems (ITS) that provide safety and convenience to humans. Systems that compose the ITS adopt architectures that applied the cloud computing which consists of a high-performance general-purpose processor or graphics processing unit. However, an architecture that only used the cloud computing requires a high network bandwidth and consumes much power. Therefore, applying edge computing to ITS is essential for solving these problems. In this paper, we propose an edge artificial intelligence (AI) device based ITS. Edge AI which is applicable to various systems in ITS has been applied to license plate recognition. We implemented edge AI on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The accuracy of the edge AI for license plate recognition was 0.94. Finally, we synthesized the edge AI logic with Magnachip/Hynix 180nm CMOS technology and the power consumption measured using the Synopsys's design compiler tool was 482.583mW.
