This paper proposes a new power minimization technique for the frame-based multimedia signal processing. The derivation of the technique is based on the newly proposed microscopic DVS(Dynamic Voltage Scaling) method, where, the operating frequency and the supply voltage levels are dynamically controlled according to the processing requirement for each frame of multimedia data. The multimedia signal processing algorithms are also redesigned and optimized to maximize the power saving efficiency of the microscopic DVS technology. The characterization of the mean/variance distribution of the processing load in the frame-based multimedia signal processing provides the major basis not only for the optimized application of the microscopic DVS technology but also for the optimization of the multimedia algorithms. The power saying efficiency of the proposed DVS approach is experimentally tested with the algorithms of MPEG-2 video decoder and MPEG-2 AAC audio encoder on the ARM9 RISC processor. The experimental results with the diverse MPEG-2 video and audio files show The average power saving efficiencies of 50$\%$ and 30$\%$, respectively. The results also agree very well with those of the analytic derivations.

In the context of Daesoon Jinrihoe's The Canonical Scripture, 'Saving Lives' consists of one 44 verse-long chapter. The content covers Kang Jeungsan's authority and foreknowledge, and most of the passages are about the treatment of diseases. Other passages are about relief from natural disasters, the resolution of conflicts in personnel affairs, and wisdom as applied to saving lives. The treatment of diseases focuses on solving the ailments faced by lower classes during that time period. Kang Jeungsan relieved the damage suffered by the people from natural phenomena as caused by the three disasters which resulted from water, fire, and wind. He also worked to solve other difficulties experienced in human society. In addition, the definition of 'wisdom' here is one of being high-seeing and far-thinking in Saving Lives. That is the foundation upon which wisdom can save oneself and others. After comparing each chapter of The Canonical Scripture with the parallel verses from the 6th edition of Daesoon Jeongyeong, the results of this study can be summarized as follows: first, saving lives as performed by Kang Jeungsan became an unprecedented and absolute act of relieving the common people during a time when they were suffering from great harms, hardships, and difficulties in their daily lives during the late Joseon Dynasty. Second, the verses were distributed into seven parts to achieve the purpose indicated by the titles of each section which related to specific powers exhibited by Kang Jeungsan in his interactions with Heaven, Earth and Humanity. Third, the second chapter of 'Saving Lives' includes not only treatment of disease, natural disasters, and hardships, but also relief meant to lessen the burdens people experienced in their daily lives while living within the boundaries of society. This is different from the respective section from the 6th edition of Daesoon Jeongyeong which, by way of contrast, only contained verses concerning the treatment of disease. The contents of 'Saving Lives' in The Canonical Scripture deals with the relief in a wide range of applications and is thereby different from the chapter on healing from the Daesoon Jeongyeong, which merely dealt with the healing of diseases. Therefore, this broader range of meanings can be taken to be a unique feature of The Canonical Scripture.

This paper presents an application of SR drives for LSEV's(Low Speed Electric Vehicles) which are used for golf and leisure. Two types of 5[HP] SRM's and its drive system are designed and tested. In order to be energy saving and have effective braking during deceleration, a multi-level inverter is proposed. For the precise switching angle control, a new type of analog encoder is proposed. A current control is adopted for soft starting and an angle control is adopted at high speed to increase efficiency. Drive characteristics and performance are shown with test results.

데이터 센터의 수가 증가하고 대형화됨에 따라 데이터 센터에서의 전력 소비는 급격하게 증가하고 있으며, 이를 해결하기 위해서 전력변환효율을 증대시키거나 소비 전력이 적은 서버를 개발하는 등의 접근이 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 전력관리를 통해서 소비전력을 줄이기 위한 그린전력관리시스템을 제안한다. 전형적인 서버의 경우에는 Idle 상태에서는 사용 중인 소비 전력의 약 60% 정도를 소비하고, 데이터 센터에서는 서버의 응답시간을 줄이기 위해서 약 5~20%을 효율로 서버를 운용하고 있으며, 평균적으로 약 10%의 서버가 사용되지 않고 있다. 이러한 이유로 동적으로 서버를 관리하여 데이터센터에서 낭비되는 서버의 소비 전력을 줄이고자 한다.

This paper proposes a new hybrid five-level voltage-source inverter topology, based on the conventional five-level active neutral-point-clamped topology (5L-ANPC), where the lower number of switching devices is required, resulting in saving the cost. The operating principle and control method of the proposed topology is described. The comparison of THD, power losses, loss distribution, and cost of components are evaluated among the proposed topology, the 5L-ANPC and 5L-DCI (diode-clamped inverters) topology.

In this paper, a finite element formulation using dynamic-explicit time integration scheme is used for numerical analysis of Hydro-forming processes. The lumping scheme is employed for the diagonal mass matrix and dynamic explicit formulation. Hydro-forming process for auto-body panel forming is analyzed by using dynamic-explicit finite element method. Further, the simulated results of the Hydro-forming processes are shown and discussed. Its application is being increased especially in the automotive industrial area for the cost reduction, weight saving, and improvement of strength.

In this study, computer simulation works using PRO/II with PROVISION V10.2 have been performed for a cascade refrigeration cycle using methane, ethylene and propane as refrigerants. LNG cold heat was also utilized in order to save the compression powers for the ethylene and propane refrigeration cycles. It was concluded that about 77% of compression power can be saved by using LNG cold heat through the exchanging heat with refrigerants. We could also know that the cold heat price contained in 1 ton of LNG is 16,155 won.

무선 통신의 발전으로 사용자가 휴대용 장치를 사용하여, 그들의 물리적인 위치에 상관없이 통신을 할 수 있는 이동 컴퓨팅이라는 새로운 패러다임이 생겨났다. 이러한 이등 컴퓨팅은 비연결성, 낮은 대역, 높은 대역의 가변성, 이질망의 연결, 보안성, 저 전력, 적은 저장 공간 등의 제약성을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 제약 중 하나인 저 전력성을 극복하기 위하여 두 노드간의 거리에 따른 전력을 다르게 하는 방식인 전력 조절 기범(Power Adaption Scheme)에 기법에 실시간성을 고려하였다. 기존의 방식에서 전력 소비를 줄이기 위해 중간에 거쳐야 할 노드의 수가 증가하는 만큼 전송 시간이 늘어나기 때문에 시간 제약을 갖는 응용에 적절하지 못하다. 본 논문에서는 실시간성을 갖는 데이터 전송에서 소비전력을 최소화하는 라우팅 기법을 제시하였고 성능을 비교하였다.

Transplanting process during the tissue culture of potato seedlings is costly, since the cost of highly skilled labor working in the sanitary environment takes up about 60-70% of the production cost. The objective of this study was to develop a soft gripper of a transplanting robot system for the labor-saving tissue culture. The prototype of the soft gripper was consisted of power-transmitting part finger and plant contacts. The power transmitting part transformed the rotating motion of a step motor to the reciprocating motion of the finger. Plant stems used in the test were potato seedlings cultured for six weeks. The dimensional characteristics of cultured seedlings, the compressive strengths of the stems, the extractive force from the culture medium and the gripping force of the finger were measured. A proper gripping force was found to be 0.343N at the extractive force of 0.41N when the plant contacts were made of silicon. Sixteen plants out of 70 trials were tangled with others, resulting in the success rate of 77.1%.
