Researches on unused energy are being continued because of the limited fossil fuel and the destruction of environment. Therefore this study was peformed as follows. The collectable amount of exhausted heat for an air-conditioning was calculated by the subway thermal environment prediction program. And the electric power needed by conventional heat source equipments was compared with one by unused heat source equipments when the exhausted heat was used by heat pump in heating and hot water supplying. The results are summarized as follows; 1) Forced ventilation should be conducted to keep optimal temperature in subway tunnel in summer as well as in winter. According to the simulation, temperature in tunnel was higher than that on the ground in summer when the forced ventilation was conducted only in winter. 2) Ventilating time should be calculated out to the optimal condition for not only saving power of ventilation fan but reusing exhausted heat. By the simulation, it is certain that the exhausted heat should be eliminated in air-conditioning time. 3) The use of exhausted heat source heat pump could save 8% of electric power per hour in comparison with existing heat pump. It was based on a present heat generation and traffic for ventilating time of general air-conditioning, but could be different by ventilating time. 4) As the traffic increases up to 1.5 or 2 times, electric power consumption of the conventional heat pump increases to 11% or 13.5% per mean hour in comparison with that of the exhausted heat source heat pump, though all-day ventilation.

Upcoming ground-breaking applications for always-on tiny interconnected devices steadily demand two-fold features of processor cores: aggressively low power consumption and enhanced performance. We propose implementation of a novel superscalar low-power processor core with a low supply voltage. The core implements intra-core low-power microarchitecture with minimal performance degradation in instruction fetch, branch prediction, scheduling, and execution units. The inter-core lockstep not only detects malfunctions during low-voltage operation but also carries out software-based recovery. The chip incorporates a pair of cores, high-speed memory, and peripheral interfaces to be implemented with a 65nm node. The processor core consumes only 24mW at 350MHz and 0.68V, resulting in power efficiency of $80{\mu}W/MHz$. The operating frequency of the core reaches 850MHz at 1.2V.

With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the amount of energy used in buildings has been increasing due to changes in the energy use structure caused by the massive spread of information-oriented equipment, climate change and greenhouse gas emissions. For the efficient use of energy, it is necessary to have a plan that can predict and reduce the amount of energy use according to the type of energy source and the use of buildings. To address such issues, this study presents a model embedded in a digital twin that predicts energy use in buildings. The digital twin is a system that can support a solution of urban problems through the process of simulations and analyses based on the data collected via sensors in real-time. To develop the energy use prediction model, energy-related data such as actual room use, power use and gas use were collected. Factors that significantly affect energy use were identified through a correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis based on the collected data. The proof-of-concept prototype was developed with an exhibition facility for performance evaluation and validation. The test results confirm that the error rate of the energy consumption prediction model decreases, and the prediction performance improves as the data is accumulated by comparing the error rates of the model. The energy use prediction model thus predicts future energy use and supports formulating a systematic energy management plan in consideration of characteristics of building spaces such as the purpose and the occupancy time of each room. It is suggested to collect and analyze data from other facilities in the future to develop a general-purpose energy use prediction model.

본 논문에서는 OpenRISC 프로세서의 성능 및 전력 소모 개선을 위해 동적 분기예측 기법, 사원 집합연관 캐시 구조, ODC를 이용한 클럭 게이팅 기법을 제안한다. 동적 분기 예측 기법은 분기 명령에 대해 다음에 실행될 명령에 대한 예측 주소를 저장하는 BTB를 사용하였다. 사원 집합연관 캐시는 네 개의 메모리 블록을 한 개의 캐시 블록에 사상되는 구조로 되어있어 직접사상 캐시에 비해 접근 실패율이 낮다. ODC를 이용한 클럭게이팅 기법은 논리합성 개념인 무관조건의 입출력 ODC조건을 찾아 클럭 게이팅 로직을 삽입함으로써 동적 소비전력을 줄일 수 있다. 테스트 프로그램을 이용하여 제안한 기법들을 적용한 OpenRISC 프로세서의 성능을 측정한 결과, 기존 프로세서 대비실행시간이 8.9% 향상 되었고, 삼성 $0.18{\mu}m$ 라이브러리를 이용하여 동적 전력을 측정한 결과, 기존 프로세서 대비 소비전력을 13.9% 이상 감소하였다.

Currently, the tax - exempted vessel fuel is provided for commercial fishing in order to increase the competitive power of fishery production thorough the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives. The National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives should predict the exact amount of fuel consumption for fishing every year to request the fuel from the government. Unfortunately, there is no sophisticated model to predict the tax - exempted vessel fuel consumption. In 2003, the consumption of the tax- exempted vessel fuel was only $25.1\%$ of the estimation amount by the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives. This causes an inefficiency in the petroleum management. Moreover, we need some data such as the annual average fishing hours, fishing days and fishing behavior to adopt a new policy regarding fishing. Up to now, the data have been obtained by survey with response in the fishery field. In the most case, we have a small number of data because we spend so much time and money consuming for collecting fishing data. As a result, the level of confidence of the data is associated with the sample size and normally low. In order to achieve more accurate data, we need to develope an efficient method for collecting fishing data. In this research, we proposed a new method to predict the tax- exempted vessel fuel consumption more exactly. The prediction results from the proposed method has been compared with the results from the current method. According to the results in this research, the method proposed here produced much better accuracy than the current method. In addition, we also proposed in the paper for collecting fishing data of the annual average fishing hours using the tax - exempted vessel fuel consumption and the gasoline consumption of vessel engine. The fishing data obtained by using the method proposed in this research could be much more efficient and accurate because it doesn't need to estimate from survey sample data.

The supply voltage has been drop rapidly and the total length of the wire increased exponentially in the nanometer SoC design environment. The ideal supply voltage was dropped sharply by the resistance and parasitic devices which stayed on the kilometers-long wire length. Even worse, it could severely affect the functional behavior of the block of the design. To analyze the effects of the long wire of the SoC while maintaining the accuracy, the modeling of the current and the RC conversion of the parasitic techniques are researched and applied. By these modeling and conversion, the multi-million gates HDTV Chipset can be analyzed within a day. The benchmark analysis of the HDTV SoC showed the superiority to the conventional methods in performance and accuracy.

Solar energy forecasting is essential for (1) power system planning, management, and operation, requiring accurate predictions. It is crucial for (2) ensuring a continuous and sustainable power supply to customers and (3) optimizing the operation and control of renewable energy systems and the electricity market. Recently, research has been focusing on developing solar energy forecasting models that can provide daily plans for power usage and production and be verified in the electricity market. In these prediction models, various data, including solar energy generation and climate data, are chosen to be utilized in the forecasting process. The most commonly used climate data (such as temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, solar radiation, and wind speed) significantly influence the fluctuations in solar energy generation based on weather conditions. Therefore, this paper proposes a hybrid forecasting model by combining the strengths of the Prophet model and the GRU model, which exhibits excellent predictive performance. The forecasting periods for solar energy generation are tested in short-term (2 days, 7 days) and medium-term (15 days, 30 days) scenarios. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms the conventional Prophet model by more than twice in terms of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and surpasses the modified GRU model by more than 1.5 times, showcasing superior performance.

LDPC 부호는 4G 이동통신 시스템에 적합한 오류 정정 부호이다. 그러나 알고리듬의 특성상 좋은 BER 성능을 위해서는 반복 복호에 의한 많은 연산량이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 복호지연과 전력 소모에 대한 복호기의 성능을 증가시키기 위하여 반복 복호 횟수를 줄이는 알고리듬에 대하여 제안한다. 제안된 알고리듬은 현재 LLR 복호값과 이전 LLR 복호값 사이의 변화를 측정하고 변화 방향을 예측하며, 패리티 검사식을 만족시켜 수렴속도를 높이도록 LLR 값의 sign 비트를 반전시킨다. 실험결과, 제안한 방법은 BER 성능의 감소 없이 반복 복호 횟수를 약 33% 정도 줄이는 것이 가능하며 감소된 반복 복호 횟수에 비례하여 소모 전력도 감소시킬 수 있다.
