  • In this paper, a 1.5V 256kb eFlash memory IP with low area DC-DC converter is designed for battery application. Therefore, in this paper, 5V NMOS precharging transistor is used instead of cross-coupled 5V NMOS transistor, which is a circuit that precharges the voltage of the pumping node to VIN voltage in the unit charge pump circuit for the design of a low-area DC-DC converter. A 5V cross-coupled PMOS transistor is used as a transistor that transfers the boosted voltage to the VOUT node. In addition, the gate node of the 5V NMOS precharging transistor is made to swing between VIN voltage and VIN+VDD voltage using a boost-clock generator. Furthermore, to swing the clock signal, which is one node of the pumping capacitor, to full VDD during a small ring oscillation period in the multi-stage charge pump circuit, a local inverter is added to each unit charge pump circuit. And when exiting from erase mode and program mode and staying at stand-by state, HV NMOS transistor is used to precharge to VDD voltage instead of using a circuit that precharges the boosted voltage to VDD voltage. Since the proposed circuit is applied to the DC-DC converter circuit, the layout area of the 256kb eFLASH memory IP is reduced by about 6.5% compared to the case of using the conventional DC-DC converter circuit.

  • Most data parallel languages provide the block-cyclic distribution (cyclic(k)) that is one of the most general regular distributions. In order to generate local addresses for an array section A(l:h:s) with block-cyclic distribution, efficient compiling methods or run-time methods are required. In this paper, two local address generation methods for the block-cyclic distribution are presented. One is a simple scan method that is modified from the virtual-block scheme. The other is a linear-time ${\Delta}M$ table that contains the local memory access information construction method. This method is simpler than other algorithms for generating a ${\Delta}M$ table. Experimental results show that a simple that a simple scan method has poor performance but a linear-time ${\Delta}M$ table generation method is faster than other algorithms in ${\Delta}M$ table generation time and access time for 10,000 array elements.

  • In this paper, an efficient vehicle detection and tracking algorithm for detection incident in tunnel is proposed. The proposed algorithm consists of three steps. The first one is a step for background estimates, low computational complexity and memory consumption Running Gaussian Average (RGA) is used. The second step is vehicle detection step, Adaboost algorithm is applied to this step. In order to reduce false detection from a relatively remote location of the vehicles, local features according to height of vehicles are used to detect vehicles. If the local features of an object are more than the threshold value, the object is classified as a vehicle. The last step is a vehicle tracking step, the Kalman filter is applied to track moving objects. Through computer simulations, the proposed algorithm was found that useful to detect and track vehicles in the tunnel.

  • Linear constraint satisfaction optimization problem is a kind of combinatorial optimization problem involving linearly expressed objective function and complex constraints. Integer programming is known as a very effective technique for such problem but require very much time and memory until finding a suboptimal solution. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the search performance by integrating local search and integer programming. Basically, simple hill-climbing search, which is the simplest form of local search, is used to solve the given problem and integer programming is applied to generate a neighbor solution. In addition, constraint programming is used to generate an initial solution. Through the experimental results using N-Queens maximization problems, we confirmed that the proposed method can produce far better solutions than any other search methods.

  • Retrieving temporal information of encoded events is one of the core control processes in episodic memory. Despite much prior neuroimaging research on episodic retrieval, little is known about how large-scale connectivity patterns are involved in the retrieval of sequentially organized episodes. Task-related functional connectivity multivariate pattern analysis was used to distinguish the different sequential retrieval. In this study, participants performed temporal episodic memory tasks in which they were required to retrieve the encoded items in either the forward or backward direction. While separately parsed local networks did not yield substantial efficiency in classification performance, the large-scale patterns of interactivity across the cortical and sub-cortical brain regions implicated in both the cognitive control of memory and goal-directed cognitive processes encompassing lateral and medial prefrontal regions, inferior parietal lobules, middle temporal gyrus, and caudate yielded high discriminative power in classification of temporal retrieval processes. These findings demonstrate that mnemonic control processes across cortical and subcortical regions are recruited to re-experience temporally-linked series of memoranda in episodic memory and are mirrored in the qualitatively distinct global network patterns of functional connectivity.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze customers' behavior in using word-of-mouth(WOM) information about Korean local food restaurants. The questionnaire developed for this study was distributed to 500 customers living in Jeonbuk area and a total of 455 copies (91.0%) were used for analysis. The statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS Win(12.0). The results were summarized as follows. The recommendation of people experienced'($M=3.57{\pm}1.24$) and 'word-of-mouth through people around'($M=3.52{\pm}1.20$) were major word-of-mouth information sources of Korean local foods; 'taste of food'($M=4.16{\pm}1.15$) and 'service quality'($M=3.79{\pm}1.11$) were important attributes in word-of-mouth information. In addition, to the question about the reasons for recommending the restaurant to the people around, the most people replied that 'flavor, nutrition and quality of local foods can be kept only in the specific location' ($3.53{\pm}1.08$), followed by 'to keep the memory of the visit to the areas in mind through local foods'($3.51{\pm}1.03$). These results showed that people usually recommend a restaurant based on the quality of the food itself or local characteristics. As a result, it is deemed that word-of-mouth effect is an important factor for the spread of Korean local foods.

  • It is a known fact that the spread of multiplexes has contributed to movie industry flourish and extending public rights for enjoying movies. However, in terms of Urban Discourse, Multiplexes centered in new downtown have given rise to Doughnut Phenomena in old downtown. It is especially regrettable that the local theaters which have been symbolic cultural spaces storing the 'memory of life' of local communities are disappearing due to a recession of business zone in old downtown. Japan has long been worked in various activities spotlighting on movie/image contents as the major means of creative urban regeneration. Among them, the 'Community Cinema' has made a contribution to regional revitalization by improving movie screening environment of the local community through renewal of local theaters and further creating related culture and industry in the local area. In this study, I focus on 'Fukaya Cinema' which started from NPO(Non-Profit Organization) and reused a closed industrial facility to a movie theater in cooperation with local TMO(Town Management Organization). Fukaya Cinema, which operates in the form of a business community, plays important roles as the core cultural facility in the local community and is regarded as a significant case showing a possibility of urban regeneration using movie/image contents. I investigate the specific founding process and activities of Fukaya Cinema and intend to derive the implications from that. Through this, I aim to provide the basic urban regeneration data utilizing movie/media contents.
