The centennial of Alan Mathison Turing(23 June 1912 - 7 June 1954) is an appropriate occasion on which to assess his profound influence on the development of cognitive science. His contributions to and attitudes toward that field are discussed from the metamathematical perspective. This essay addresses (i)Turing's mathematical analysis of cognition, (ii)universal Turing machines, (iii)the limitations of universal Turing machines, (iv)oracle Turing machine beyond universal Turing machine, and (v)Turing test for cognitive science. Turing was a ground-breaker, eager to move on to new fields. He actually opened wider the scientific windows to the mind. The results show that first, by means of mathematical logic Turing discovered a new bridge between the mind and the physical world. Second, Turing gave a new formal analysis of operations of the mind. Third, Turing investigated oracle Turing machines and connectionist network machines as new models of minds beyond the limitations of his own universal machines. This paper explores why the cognitive scientist would be ever expecting a new Turing Test on the shoulder of Alan Turing.

For many years the development and verification of on-board flight software have been essentially performed on STB (Software Test Bed) environments which consist of real hardware in KARI. During development of on-board flight software on STB, we experienced many difficulties such as the late delivery of target hardware and limitation to access STB simultaneously by multiple developers. And it takes too much time and cost to build up multiple STBs. In order to successfully resolve this kind of problems, the software-based spacecraft simulator has been developed. The simulator emulates the on-board computer, I/O modules and power controller units and it supports the debugging and test facilities to software engineers for developing flight software. Also the flight software can be loaded without any modification and can be executed as pseudo real-time. This paper presents the architecture and design of software-based spacecraft simulator, and flight software development and verification under this environment.

The Streptomyces peucetius OIM (Overproducing Industrial Mutant) strain is a recursively-mutated and optimally-screened strain used for the industrial production of polyketide antibiotics, such as doxorubicin (DXR). Using the S. peucetius OIM mutant strain as a surrogate host, a model minimal polyketide pathway for aloesaponarin II, an actinorhodin shunt product, was cloned in a high-copy conjugative plasmid, followed by functional pathway expression and quantitative metabolite analysis. The level of aloesaponarin II production was noted as being significantly higher in the OIM strain than in the wild-type S. peucetius, as well as in the regulatory network-stimulated S. coelicolor mutant strain. Moreover, the aloesaponarin II production level was seen to be even higher in a down-regulator $wblA_{spe}$-deleted S. peucetius OIM strain, implying that the rationally-engineered S. peucetius OIM mutant strain could be used as an efficient surrogate host for the high expression of foreign polyketide pathways.

This paper illustrates a case study of PLC logic simulation in a car manufacturing system. It was developed to simulate and verify PLC control program for automobile panel AS/RS. Because car models become varied, the complexity of supply problem is increasing in the car manufacturing system. To cope with this problem, companies use the AS (automated storage) and RS (retrieval system) but it has logical complexity. Industrial automated process uses PLC code to control the AS/RS, however control information and control codes (PLC code) are difficult to understand. This paper suggests a PLC simulation environment, using 3D models and PLC code with realistic data. Data used in this simulation is based on realistic 3D model and I/O model, using actual size and PLC signals, respectively. The environment is similar to a real factory; users can verify and test the PLC code using this simulation before the implementation of AS/RS. Proposed simulation environment can be used for test run of AS/RS to reduce implementation time and cost.

In order to control thermal deformation of the machine origin of machine tools a empirical model and a compensation system have been developed, Prior to empirical modeling the volumetric error considering shape errors and joint errors of slides is formulated through the homogeneous transformation matrix (HTM) and kinematic chain. Simulation results of the HTM method show that the thermal error of the machine origin is more critical than position-dependent errors. In order to make a stable and effective software error compensation system the GMDH (Group Method of Data Handling) models are constructed to estimate the thermal deformation of the machine origin by measuring deformation data and temperature data. A test bar and gap sensors are used to measure the deformation data. In order to compensate the estimated error the work origin shift method is developed by implementing a digital I/O interface board between a CNC controller and an IBM PC. The method shifts the work origin as much as the amounts which are calculated by the pre-established thermal error model. The experiment results for a vertical machining center show that the thermal deformation of the machine origin is reduced within $\pm$5$mu extrm{m}$.

This paper proposes an imprecise compuitation model for DCT considering QOS of images and a two dimensional DCT architecture for imprecise computations. In case that many processes are scheduling in a hard real time system, the system resources are shared among them. Thus all processes can not be allocated enough system resources (such as processing power and communication bandwidth). The imprecise computtion model can be used to provide scheduling flexibility and various QOS(quality of service)levels, to enhance fault tolerance, and to ensure service continuity in rela time systems. The DCT(discrete cosine transform) is known as one of popular image data compression techniques and adopted in JPEG and MPEG algorithms since the DCT can remove the spatial redundancy of 2-D image data efficiently. Even though many commercial data compression VLSI chips include the DCST hardware, the DCT computation is still a very time-consuming process and a lot of hardware resources are required for the DCT implementation. In this paper the DCT procedure is re-analyzed to fit to imprecise computation model. The test image is simulated on teh base of this model, and the computation time and the quality of restored image are studied. The row-column algorithm is used ot fit the proposed imprecise computation DCT which supports pipeline operatiions by pixel unit, various QOS levels and low speed stroage devices. The architecture has reduced I/O bandwidth which could make its implementation feasible in VLSI. The architecture is proved using a VHDL simulator in architecture level.

An optimal Stabilization technique for a bilinear in duction model is introduced. This technique includes to o parts; the one is an stabilization control using Lyap unov Function which has the form of a sum of linear and quadratic function of the state variables, and the other is an optimal control using the performance index which depends on the choice of the elements of the Ly apunov matrices concerning both the state variables and the input variables. Therefore, induction motor is drived with the shorter transient time of the state variables and with the smaller overshoot of the ones, simulation results are obtained from a digital computer. Experimental ones are obtained from implementation of the optimizing controller using 8086 microprocessor kits and analog circuits are compared.

Tribological properties of a Magneto-Rheological(MR) fluid in a polishing process are studied. For this polishing process, abrasive wear model is proposed as a function of shear force, normal force and actual mean velocity of MR particles at workpiece surface. Experimental conditions are changed by varying the gap distance between workpiece and tool and the rotational speed of tool. From the experimental results, a modified Stribeck curve is obtained, and the friction coefficient turns out to have linear relationship with a modified Sommerfeld number. The validity of the wear model is supported by additional experiments performed for measuring material removal rates.

A Design of Experiments(DOE) approach to an experimental study of fuselage drag and stability characteristics of a helicopter configuration was applied to achieve an accuracy improvement in the wind tunnel testing. The impact of blocking the test was assessed by comparing the ANOVA table for the blocked and unblocked cases. For a second-order response model, the role of blocking resulted in a substantial increase in the accuracy of test results. These accuracy improvement could be achieved through randomization, blocking, and replication of the data points i.e. a re-ordering of the test sequence where the data were acquired.
