  • This study aims to develop a truck priority on left-turn algorithm that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing heavy duty truck's stops at signalized intersection. The signal priority is granted for a left-turn phase, because heavy duty trucks can deteriorate left-turn traffic flow due to the low acceleration or deceleration rate and large turn radius. Truck priority allows to provide the stable speed control for heavy duty truck, and reduces emissions at the signal intersection. Also, two signal recovery strategies are compared for various traffic conditions. This study analyzes the effectiveness of truck priority such as greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumption reduction, and total travel time saving using the PARAMICS and Comprehensive Modal Emissions Model (CMEM). The results show that signal priority for heavy duty trucks has an effect on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumptions at non-peak hour. Also, it shows decreasing total travel time due to reducing truck stops.

  • The performance of peripheral devices is improving rapidly to meet the needs of users for multimedia data. Therefore, the peripheral interface with wide bandwidth and high transmission rate becomes necessary to handle large amounts of data in real time for multiple high-performance devices. PCI Express is a fast serial interface with the use of packets that are compatible with previous PCI and PCI-X. In this paper, we design and verify general peripheral interface using serial link. It includes two kinds of traffic class (TC) labels which are mapped to virtual channels (VC). The design adopts TC/VC mapping and the scheme of arbitration by priority. The design uses a packet which can be transmitted through up to four transmission lanes. The design of general peripheral interface is described in Verilog HDL and verified using ModelSim. For FPGA verification, Xilinx ISE and SPARTAN XC3S400 are used.We used Synopsys Design Compiler as a synthesis tool and the used library was MagnaChip 0.35um technology.

  • The number of pedestrians is considered essential information which can be used to control a person who makes a entrance or a exit into a building. The number of pedestrians, also, can be used to help to manage pedestrian traffic and the volume of pedestrian flow within the building. Due to the fact there is incorrect detection by occluded, shadows, and illumination, however, difficulty can arise in existing system which is for detection and counts of a person who makes a entrance or a exit into a building. In this paper, it is minimized that the change of illumination and the effect of shadow through the transmitted image from camera which is created and processed with great adaptability. The accuracy of the calculations can be increase as well by using Kalman Filter and Mean-Shift Algorithm in order to avoid overlapped counts. As a result of the test, it is proved that the count method that shows the accuracy of 95.4% should be effective for detection and counts.

  • ATM forum defined several ATM oriented services such as ABR, VBR, CBR, UBR, and others. Among them, ABR service is considered as one of the most appropriate ones in the LAN environment. ABR controls network traffic by using RM cells according to ATM forum standard. In particular, the point-to-multipoint ABR service in general uses consolidation algorithms to solve feedback implosion at the branch point. Consolidation algorithms alleviate propagation delay and network congestion problem: thus, the efficiency of consolidation algorithm is closely related to the network performance. In this paper, we describe the limitation of existing consolidation algorithms based on thorough analysis, and then propose an algorithm that performs better than the existing algorithms. We show that the proposed algorithm improves network performance through a parametric simulation, In our simulation the performance measure is the cell rate which is controlled by exploiting the congestion depth. We also found that the proposed algorithm not only improves efficiency of network, but also eliminates the consolidation noise.

  • Algorithm design is needed to optimized bandwidth which satisfy quality of service(QoS) requirements of vary traffic classes for Multimedia service in ATM networks. The diverse flow characteristics e.g., burstiness, bit rate and burst length, have to guarantee the different quality of service(QoS) requirements in Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM). The QoS parameter may be measured in terms of cell loss probability and maximum cell dely. In this paper, we consider the ATM networks which the virtual path(vip) concept is implemented by applying the Markov Modulated Deterministic Process method. We develop an efficient algorithm to computer the minimum capacity required to satisfy all the QoS requirements when multiple classes of on-off source are multiplexed on single VP. Using above the result, we propose a simple algorithm to determine the VP combination to achieve the near optimum of total capacity required for satisfying the individual QoS requirements. Numerical results are also presented to demonstrate the performance of the algorithm, when compared to the optimal total capacity required.

  • As our society turns into the information age from the industrial one, the ministry of information and communication has set up functional software standards for electronic approval systems Several software houses have developed such systems in the client/server environment and subsequently for the intranet. Although electronic approval systems for the intranet have the advantages of less costly implementation and ease of use, they create heavy network traffic, and have a poor document processing functionality resulting from the lack of document processor in web environments. This paper describes a system design that web browsers utilize the resources of clients by adopting the ActiveX technique in order to improve such mallets mentions above. In other words, to use the Hangul word processor as a document processor, the ActiveX control and the Hangul DDE API have been implemented in the form of the DDE server/client, which is capable of mutual communication, and the flow of electronic approve system has been controled by connecting. As a result of running the implemented system lot three months through a real company in multi-server environment, it shows the high usage of electronic approval system as the tate roaches 75%-93% for some departments.

  • WAVE(Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments) is a representative V2V communication protocol and its standards of MAC and PHY parts except for security were published. In order to control traffic flow and ensure driver's safety using V2V communication, various projects are conducting. In particular, safety application has been researched. Therefore, in this paper, we designed the safety application algorithm, which informs a driver of the dangerous status when driver tries to turn left in an intersection and we also implemented the algorithm. Proposed algorithm configures a model for a host vehicle and a vehicle coming in opposite lane and in case that there is collision hazard it provides warning message to driver by using HMI. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm's performance, we configured the test bed using test vehicles and we tested the algorithm on proving ground with the composed test scenarios. As test results, our system showed excellent performance. If the infrastructures for V2I communications are constructed, we will optimize our system more precisely and stably.

  • E-PON supports efficiently the increased Internet data traffic and efficient bandwidth assignment function by which the shared upstream bandwidth in the broadband access networks. In this paper, when different types of incoming sources are mapped into QoS-aware source and Best-Effort(BE) source, we propose the Dual-GPS schedulaer in E-PON that has the characteristics to provide delay and delay-constraint application, and maximizes the bandwidth to best-effort service. When transmit upstream data in E-PON, The proposed scheme supports the control capabilities of delay and delay-variation for required QoS flow through the novel bandwidth assignment scheme. Simulation results show our scheme outperforms the conventional bandwidth allocation scheme in controlling the delay and delay-variation of E-PON system.

  • Nowadays, the combined land navigation system using GPS(Global Positioning System) and DR(Deduced Reckoning), etc. has been used. Although GPS is popular with the land navigation system, this is not useful for the kinematic positioning of the vehicles in the urban canyon because of its few satellites. Thus, this study deals with the kinematic positioning of the vehicles with the combined GPS/GLONASS(GLObal Navigation Satellite System) to compliment the drawbacks of GPS. So the kinematic positioning of the vehicles can be performed constantly by the combined GPS/GLONASS based on the high acquisition rate of data with the help of GLONASS despite of many obstacles and few satellites tracked in the test sites. Consequently, the combined GPS/GLONASS can be applicable to the control of traffic flow and the effective management of read system.

  • It is necessary to grasp the characteristics of traffic flow passing through a specific road section and the topological structure of the road in advance in order to quickly prepare a movement management strategy in the event of a disaster or disaster. It is because it can be an essential basis for road managers to assess vulnerabilities by microscopic road units and then establish appropriate monitoring and management measures for disasters or disaster situations. Therefore, this study presented spatial density, time occupancy, and betweenness centrality index to evaluate vulnerabilities by road link in the city department and defined spatial-temporal and topological vulnerabilities by clustering analysis based on distance and density. From the results of this study, road administrators can manage vulnerabilities by characterizing each road link group. It is expected to be used as primary data for selecting priority control points and presenting optimal routes in the event of a disaster or disaster.
