In most of the recent research literature, network performance is expressed in terms of network engineering measures such as delay or loss. These performance measures are important to network owners and operators, but it is believed that user preferences should be the primary consideration which drives the resource allocation scheme. A network is only as valuable as its users perceive it to be. Therefore, it is advocated that the users themselves determine relative traffic priorities. This paper describes the role of feedback in network resource allocation, which could be part of a user-oriented framework for network operation and control. Feedback mechanism can also be used to improve the two types of efficiency in the network; network efficiency and economic efficiency.

A hybrid structural design and optimization methodology that combines the strengths of genetic algorithms, local search techniques, and parallel computing is developed to evolve optimal truss systems in this research effort. The primary objective that is met in evolving near-optimal or optimal structural systems using this approach is the capability of satisfying user-defined design criteria while minimizing the computational time required. The application of genetic algorithms to the design and optimization of truss systems supports conceptual design by facilitating the exploration of new design alternatives. In addition, final shape optimization of the evolved designs is supported through the refinement of member sizes using local search techniques for further improvement. The use of the hybrid approach, therefore, enhances the overall process of structural design. Parallel computing is implemented to reduce the total computation time required to obtain near-optimal designs. The support of human-computer interaction during layout optimization and local optimization is also discussed since it assists in evolving optimal truss systems that better satisfy a user's design requirements and design preferences.

Wii Remote is the primary controller for Nintendo's Wii console. A main feature of the Wii Remote is its motion sensing capability, which allows the user to interact with and manipulate items on screen via movement and pointing through the use of accelerometer and optical sensor technology. Another feature is its expandability through the use of Bluetooth. In this Study, use of motion sensors and Bluetooth capabilities. The user holding the remote on the screen, pointing to receive information about the values of the coordinates on the screen indicating the drawing of the implementation.

미래의 고속 및 광대역 서비스에 대한 수요 증가로, 부족한 스펙트럼을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있는 스펙트럼 관리(spectrum management) 방법의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 또한, 트래픽 폭증 및 멀티미디어 제공 등 서비스 확대에 대응할 수 있는 유연한 스펙트럼 접속(spectrum access) 기술, 공유(sharing)에 대한 필요성도 증대되고 있다. 이러한 중요성 및 필요성에 기인해, 효율적으로 스펙트럼을 공유할 수 있는 방법으로 언더레이, 오버레이 방식 등이 제안되었고, UWB 및 인지무선(cognitive radio)과 같은 공유 기술 등이 발전하게 되었다. 본 고에서는 효율적 주파수 이용을 위한 스펙트럼 관리 방법 및 주파수 공유 기술로 기존의 주파수 대역에서 충분히 낮은 출력으로 전파를 송출하는 언더레이 방식, 기회주의적인 오버레이 동적접속 기술, 면허권자인 1차 우선 사용자(primary user)와 2차 면허권자(secondary user) 간의 동적접속 기술에 대한 국내 외 기술동향을 상세히 소개하고자 한다.

Mobile service is highly becoming in the limelight on information society by offering infringement problem about individual privacy or information by political and scientific interest This study is focusing on primary LBS application Mobile service that emphasize position confirmation, especially, looking for friends. The aim at this study grasps user productivity factor of LBS application Mobile service, and analyses whether some have relations with value and action determination of LBS application Mobile service. According to result, Mobile service applying position service is supported with usefulness and system quality, adaptedness. On the other hand, Usability and social effect, privacy weren't embossed by leading person. Mobile service applying position service is changed with a person who have experience looking for friend. This study has systematically analysed about LBS application service by leading person

The primary purpose of this research is to identify effects of the complexity levels of visual factors on user's communication in the web-sites. In this study, six complexity levels of visual factors were manipulated with four items(graphics, moving graphics, size and links) to test communication effects. As a result, user's communication was influenced by the complexity of illustration. This result shows that web sites with moderate levels of illustration complexity are more preferred than with complex or simple levels of visual complexity.

In this paper, we investigate joint power allocation and relay selection (PARS) schemes in non-orthogonal cooperative protocol (NOCP) based cognitive relay networks. Generally, NOCP outperforms the orthogonal cooperative protocol (OCP), since it can provide more transmit diversity. However, most existing PARS schemes in cognitive relay networks focus on OCP, which are not suitable for NOCP. In the context of NOCP, we first derive the joint constraints of transmit power limit for secondary user (SU) and interference constraint for primary user (PU). Then we formulate optimization problems under the aforementioned constraints to maximize the capacity of SU in amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forward (DF) modes, respectively. Correspondingly, we derive the closed form solutions with respect to different parameters. Numerical results are provided to verify the performance improvement of the proposed PARS schemes.

The purpose of this study is to research and analyse the end user's satisfactions concerning the architecture, design, format, terminology, query formulation, hits, that is, the primary factors of the search mechanism in digital libraries. and then, to present its improvements. The search mechanism of National Digital Library in Korea is decided as the sample, and the 80 students who majored in the library and information science are selected as subjects. The end user's satisfactions are measured by questionnaire.

In this paper, we propose the improved energy detector using adaptive thresholds in cognitive radio system, in order to compensate the weak points of the existing energy detector in the distorted communication environment. In addition, by investigating the several parameters we analyze its performance. The numerical results show the proposed method may get the performance gain, when the mobile speed is slow (3 km/h) as well as the false alarm probability is low ($P_f=10^{-1}$).

Usability has become a primary factor in determining the acceptability and consequent success of consumer product. It is common that the product usability is evaluated by objective performance measures and/or subjective user preference measures. This study is concerned with objective evaluation of the product usability using 3-dimensional motion analysis. We evaluated car-audio position using 3-dimensional motion analysis. The parameters investigated in this experiment were height of car-audio, left-right angle, and front-end angle. The experimental results showed that the usability evaluation method using motion analysis was consistent with user's subjective assessment. This objective method can be applied to not only car-audio position evaluation but also various consumer products'usability evaluation.
