In this paper, we propose an efficient index mechanism for real-time main memory database systems. Existing main memory index structures based on the tree can effectively support range searches. However, it doesn't guarantee the real-time characteristic because difference between the access time of a node and an average access time can be high. The index structures based on the hash have always a regular random access time on the simple searches and that speed is very fast. However they do not support range searches. To solve such problems, we propose a new index mechanism called Hyper Tree-Hash (Hyper-TH) that combines ECBH (Extendible Chained Bucket Hashing) and T＊-tree. ECBH can be dynamically extended and has a very fast access time. T＊-tree effectively supports the range searches. We show through our experiments that the proposed mechanism outperforms existing other index structures.

This paper addresses the design and implementation of an Android application for real-time precise motion control. To provide stable real-time performance, we implemented the application in two parts: Android service in the form of a daemon process, which periodically transfers a set of position commands for all motors through a real-time fieldbus, and Android UI application, which generates and delivers the set of position commands to the Android service. To support such a real-time motion control application, we use multi-core partitioning, which partitions the processor cores into a real-time partition to be used by the real-time motion control service and a non-real-time partition to be used by the Android application, and set up a shared buffer between them for communication. Our experiments show that we can obtain a motion control period of 2 ms with 99% task activation jitters less than ${\pm}55{\mu}s$ for a configuration where each of the four threads controls two motors in a group.

This paper discusses the composition of the theory of reinforcement teaming, which is applied in real-time teaming, and evolutionary strategy, which proves its the superiority in the finding of the optimal solution at the off-line teaming method. The individuals are reduced in order to team the evolutionary strategy in real-time, and new method that guarantee the convergence of evolutionary mutations are proposed. It is possible to control the control object varied as time changes. As the state value of the control object is generated, applied evolutionary strategy each sampling time because of the teaming process of an estimation, selection, mutation in real-time. These algorithms can be applied, the people who do not have knowledge about the technical tuning of dynamic systems could design the controller or problems in which the characteristics of the system dynamics are slightly varied as time changes. In the future, studies are needed on the proof of the theory through experiments and the characteristic considerations of the robustness against the outside disturbances.

This paper analyses the performance of network system using the CAN(Controller Area Network) protocol. Given messages are assumed to be scheduled by the DMS(Deadline Monotonic Scheduling) algorithm. The mathematical models for time-delay that can be occurred between CAN nodes are defined. The effectiveness of modeling is shown by comparing the difference of time-delay between simulations and practical experiments. We analyse the results according to the variation of factors, such as the number of nodes, the transmission speed, the message size and the number of aperiodic messages through simulation and confirm the real-time performance of lower priority messages. We also investigate the real-time performance of periodic messages when aperiodic message generates.

In this paper, we quantitatively compare two different time-predictable multicore cache architectures, separate and statically-partitioned caches, through extensive simulation. Current research trends primarily focus on partitioned-cache architectures in order to achieve time predictability for hard real-time multicore based systems, and our experiments reveal that separate caches actually lead to much better performance and energy efficiency when compared to statically-partitioned caches, and both of them are adequate for timing analysis for real-time multicore applications.

We measured the time-dependent concentration of VOCs emitted from Ondol floor, furniture, and the wall made of various building materials. After obtaining results from the previous measurement, we developed the estimation equations of the concentration decay, and obtained the estimated graphs for the concentration decay under different air change rates and loading factor conditions by using the estimated equations. We conducted our tests by applying our measurements to real residences for 110 days in the case of furniture and for 40 days in the case of the floor. We also conducted experiments in the cases of various wall materials for 7 days which totaled 10 times. We used the GC/FID for experiments for real residences accord-ing to the specified procedures of the NIOSH 1501, and carried out experiments for wall materials according to the specified procedures of the ASTM 5116-97. When conducting experiments for wall materials, we set the temperature and relative humidity at $23^{\circ}C$ and $50\%$, respectively. We also set the air change rate and loading factor at 0.7/h and $1.617 m^2/m^3$, respectively. Our results showed that it is possible to predict proplrly the time-dependent concentration decay of VOCs by using logarithmic functions in both cases of experiments for real residences and for wall materials. Furthermore, we found that the concentration decay rate of VOCs increased rapidly as the air exchange rate increased while the concentration decay rate decreased as the loading factor increased.

The energy constraint is still a common issue for the practical application of wireless sensors, since they are usually powered by batteries which limit their lifetime. In this paper, a practical compound energy efficiency strategy is proposed and realized in the implementation of a real time wireless sensor platform. The platform is intended for wireless structural monitoring applications and consists of three parts, wireless sensing unit, base station and data acquisition and configuration software running in a computer within the Matlab environment. The high energy efficiency of the wireless sensor platform is achieved by a proposed adaptive radio transmission power control algorithm, and some straightforward methods, including adopting low power ICs and high efficient power management circuits, low duty cycle radio polling and switching off radio between two adjacent data packets' transmission. The adaptive transmission power control algorithm is based on the statistical average of the path loss estimations using a moving average filter. The algorithm is implemented in the wireless node and relies on the received signal strength feedback piggybacked in the ACK packet from the base station node to estimate the path loss. Therefore, it does not need any control packet overheads. Several experiments are carried out to investigate the link quality of radio channels, validate and evaluate the proposed adaptive transmission power control algorithm, including static and dynamic experiments.

Neural decoding is important to recognize the user's intention for controlling a neuro-prosthetic hand. This paper proposes a real-time decoding method for multi-channel peripheral neural activity. Peripheral nerve signals were measured from the median and radial nerves, and motion artifacts were removed based on locally fitted polynomials. Action potentials were then classified using a k-means algorithm. The firing rate of action potentials was extracted as a feature vector and its dimensionality was reduced by a self-organizing feature map. Finally, a multi-layer perceptron was used to classify hand motions. In monkey experiments, all processes were completed within a real-time constrain, and the hand motions were recognized with a high success rate.

This paper addresses issues associated with the real-time implementation of a wideband speech codec such as ITU-T G. 729. 1 on an ARM processor in order to provide an improved voice quality of a VoWiFi service. The real-time implementation features in optimizing the C-source code of G.729. 1 and replacing several parts of the codec algorithm with faster ones. The performance of the implementation is measured by the CPU time spent for G.729.1 on the ARM926EJ processor that is used for a VoWiFi phone. It is shown from the experiments that the G.729.1 codec works in real-time with better voice quality than G 729 codec that is conventionally used for VoIP or VoWiFi phones.

This paper presents a real-time implementation of a speaker independent speech recognition system based on a discrete hidden markov model(DHMM). This system is developed for a car navigation system to design on-chip VLSI system of speech recognition which is used by fixed point Oak DSP core of DSP GROUP LTD. We analyze recognition procedure with C language to implement fixed point real-time algorithms. Based on the analyses, we improve the algorithms which are possible to operate in real-time, and can verify the recognition result at the same time as speech ends, by processing all recognition routines within a frame. A car noise is the colored noise concentrated heavily on the low frequency segment under 400 Hz. For the noise robust processing, the high pass filtering and the liftering on the distance measure of feature vectors are applied to the recognition system. Recognition experiments on the twelve isolated command words were performed. The recognition rates of the baseline recognizer were 98.68% in a stopping situation and 80.7% in a running situation. Using the noise processing methods, the recognition rates were enhanced to 89.04% in a running situation.
