  • In existing middleware for body sensor networks, energy limitations, hardware heterogeneity, increases in node temperature, and the absence of software reusability are major problems. In this paper, we propose an event-based grid middleware component that solves these problems using distributed resources in in vivo sensor nodes. In our multi-hop communication, we use a lightweight rendezvous routing algorithm in a publish/subscribe system of event-based communication. To facilitate software reuse and application development, a modified open services gateway initiative has been implemented in our middleware architecture. We evaluated our grid middleware in a cancer treatment scenario with combined hyperthermia, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy procedures, using in vivo sensors.

  • Cognitive radio is a paradigm for wireless communication in which either network of wireless node itself changes particular transmission or reception parameters to execute its tasks efficiently without interfering with the licensed users. This paper represents a performance of the cognitive radio technology on dual polarized MIMO system using six-port receiver. Six-port technology is well known direct conversion receiver. In this paper, a six-port phase discriminator based polarization signal separation is shown. That is, the SER(Symbol Error Rate) performance is improved using polarization separator and simple receiver architecture is proposed applying six-port receiver. The six-port technology has priority to adapt changeable frequency system and variable environments for cognitive radio. In general, dual polarized MIMO system has good capacity and quality using polarization separator [1].

  • 하드웨어와 소프트웨어의 발전과 함께 컴퓨터에서 처리 해야 할 데이터량이 크게 증가하고 있다. 클러스터 내의 node들 사이에서 이런 대용량의 데이터들을 보다 빠르게 전송하기 위해서 Lightweight Messaging 기법이 등장하였으며, 대표적으로 AM, FM, U-Net, VIA등이 있다. 이 중에서 VIA는 커널 수준에서 구현된 TCP/IP를 대신해서 사용자 수준에서 커널을 거치지 않고 네트워크 장치와 직접적으로 통신을 할 수 있게 하여 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있으며, 새로운 프로토콜의 표준으로 자리를 잡아가고 있다. 그러나 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 프로그래밍의 난이성 때문에 제대로 숙지하기 가지는 많은 시간의 투자가 필요한 것이 사실이다. 이에 이 논문에서는 EVIL(Easy-to-use Virtual Interface Library)이라는, 개발자들이 좀더 쉽게 접근할 수 있는 라이브러리를 제안하였다 그리고 EVIL. Native VIA TCP/IP로 각각 같은 역할을 하는 프로그램을 작성하여 기존의 프로토콜들과 성능을 비교하였다.

  • This paper investigates the noise transmission performance of industrial mufflers widely used in ships based on the CAE modeling and simulation. Since the industrial mufflers have very complicated internal structures, the conventional Transfer Matrix Method (TMM) is of limited use. The CAE modeling and simulation is therefore required to incorporate commercial softwares: CATIA for geometry modeling, MSC/PATRAN for FE meshing and LMS/SYSNOISE for analysis. Main sources of difficulties in this study are led by complicated arrangement of reactive elements, perforated walls and absorption materials. The reactive elements and absorbent materials are modeled by applying boundary conditions given by impedance. The perforated walls are modeled by applying the transfer impedance on the duplicated node mesh. The CAE approach presented in this paper is verified by comparing with the theoretical solution of a concentric-tube resonator and is applied for industrial mufflers.

  • In the process of exploring sustainable development, major cities in China are expanding metro systems as a strategy to reduce the negative environmental and social consequences of fast-paced motorization. A metro station is not only a transportation node, but also a place where diverse activities can be performed. Therefore, the realization of the spatial potential for human interaction is the essence of the strategy for integrated development in metro station areas. For this paper, 10 well-developed metro stations in Central Shanghai were selected to investigate the correlation between accessibility and spatial performance in station areas. The spatial performance in station areas is significantly affected by metro configuration. However, both vehicle and pedestrian accessibility show weak influence on spatial performance. A synergistic model was then developed to provide quantitative support for transit-oriented development in metro station areas.

  • In this paper, a new design methodology named FNNN(Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Network) algorithm is proposed to identify the structure and parameters of fuzzy model using PNN(Polynomial Neural Network) structure and a fuzzy inference method. The PNN is the extended structure of the GMDH(Group Method of Data Handling), and uses several types of polynomials such as linear, quadratic and modified quadratic besides the biquadratic polynomial used in the GMDH. The premise of fuzzy inference rules defines by triangular and gaussian type membership function. The fuzzy inference method uses simplified and regression polynomial inference method which is based on the consequence of fuzzy rule expressed with a polynomial such as linear, quadratic and modified quadratic equation are used. Each node of the FPNN is defined as fuzzy rules and its structure is a kind of neuro-fuzzy architecture Several numerical example are used to evaluate the performance of out proposed model. Also we used the training data and testing data set to obtain a balance between the approximation and generalization of proposed model.

  • This paper proposes the design of Vehicular Cyber-Physical Systems (called VCPS) based on vehicular cloud for smart road networks. Our VCPS realizes mobile cloud computing services where vehicles themselves or mobile devices (e.g., smartphones and tablets of drivers or passengers in vehicles) play a role of both cloud server and cloud client in the vehicular cloud. First, this paper describes the architecture of vehicular networks for VCPS and the delay modeling for the event prediction and data delivery, such as a mobile node's travel delay along its navigation path and the packet delivery delay in vehicular networks. Second, the paper explains two VCPS applications as smart road services for the driving efficiency and safety through the vehicular cloud, such as interactive navigation and pedestrian protection. Last, the paper discusses further research issues for VCPS for smart road networks.

  • A Fuzzy Hybrid-Multilayer Perceptron (FH-MLP) Structure is proposed in this paper. proposed FH-MLP is not a fixed architecture. that is to say. the number of layers and the number of nodes in each layer of FH-MLP can be generated to adapt to the changing environment. FH-MLP consists of two parts. one is fuzzy nodes which each node is operated as a small fuzzy system with fuzzy implication rules. and its fuzzy system operates with Gaussian or Triangular membership functions in premise part and constants or regression polynomial equation in consequence part. the other is polynomial nodes which several types of high-order polynomial such as linear. quadratic. and cubic form are used and is connected as various kinds of multi-variable inputs. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. time series data for gas furnace process has been applied.

  • The architecture in a differentiated services (DiffServ) network is based on a simple model that applies a per-class service in the core node of the network. However, because the network behavior is simple, the network structure and provisioning is complicated. If a service provider wants dynamic provisioning or a better bandwidth guarantee, the differentiated services network must use a signaling protocol with QoS parameters or an admission control method. Unfortunately, these methods increase the complexity. To overcome the problems with complexity, we investigated scalable dynamic provisioning for admission control in DiffServ networks. We propose a new scalable $qDPM^2$ mechanism based on a centralized bandwidth broker and distributed measurement-based admission control and movable boundary bandwidth management to support heterogeneous QoS requirements in DiffServ networks.
