The current paper presents an effective deblocking algorithm for block-based coded images using singularity detection in Mallat wavelet transform. In block-based coded images. The local maxima of the wavelet transform modulus detect all singularities, including blocking artifacts, from multiscale edges. Accordingly, the current study discriminates between blocking artifacts and edges by estimating the Lipschitz regularity of the local maxima and removing the wavelet transform modulus of blocking artifacts. Experimental results showed that the performance of the proposed algorithm was objectively and subjectively superior.

An atomic commitment protocol ensures that distributed transcations terminate consistently at participating sites. An atomic commitment protocol is said to be non-blocking if it permits transaction termination to proceed at correct participants despite of failure in the coordinator site and communication. It is well known that the famous two phase commit(2PC) is a blocking protocol, whereas the three phase commit(3PC) protocol is a non-blocking. In this paper, we propose a non-blocking two phase commit(NB-2PC) protocol reducing the blocking problem than propose non-blocking protocols. The NB-2PC protocol can be obtained through modifications of the 2PC protocol. After receiving Prepare message from coordinator in the NB-2PC protocol, participants respond to the coordinator and several participants in voting phase. While participants wait for decision message from the coordinator, the blocking occurs due to the failure of the coordinator site, participants elect new coordinator among several participants receive response message. Despite of the coordinator site failures, participants consult new coordinator and follow termination protocols and achieve non-blocking property. We propose a basic structure of NB-2PC protocol and termination protocol and new coordinator election protocol. The NB-2PC protocol has non-blocking property and reduces processing time of commit protocol than the 3PC protocol. Also, through simulation experiments, we propose the NB-2PC protocol exhibits better performance of processing time of commit protocol than 3PC protocol.

ATM packet switching technologies for the purpose of the B-ISDN service are focused on high performance which represents good qualities on throughput, packet loss, and packet delay. ATM switch designs on a class of parallel interconnection network have been researched. But these are based on the self-routing function of it. It leads to conflict with each other, and to lose the packets. Therefore, this paper proposes the method based on Sort-Banyan network should be adopted for optimal routing algorithm. It is difficult to expect good hardware complexity. For good performance, a switch design based on the development of new routing algorithm is required. For the design of switch network, the packet distributor and multiplane are proposed. They prevent each packet from blocking as being transmitted selectively by two step distributed decision algorithm. This switch will be proved to be a good performance switch network that internal blocking caused from self-routing function is removed. Also, it is expected to minimize the packet loss and decrease the packet delay according to packet transmission.

Flash memory is suitable for real time systems because of its consistent performance for random access, low power consumption and shock resistance. However, flash memory needs blocking time to perform a garbage collection to reclaim invalidated pages. Moreover, the worst-case garbage collection time is significantly longer than the best-case garbage collection time. In this paper, we propose a FTL (Flash Translation Layer) mapping scheme called KAST (K-Associative Sector Translation). In the KAST scheme, user can control the maximum association of the log block to limit the worst-case garbage collection time. Performance evaluation using simulation shows that not only KAST completes the garbage collection within the specified time but also provides about 10~15% better average performance than existing FTL schemes.

As many studies on the harmfulness of fine dust have been reported, awareness of its seriousness is spreading. Recently, interest in indoor air quality as well as air pollution is increasing, and research on measures to block fine dust flowing into the room from the outside is being conducted. The clothing company is launching functional clothing to prevent fine dust attached to clothing from entering the room through outdoor activities. However, it is difficult to confirm whether there is actually fine-dust blocking performance, and there is no evaluation standard. In this study, the contamination rate caused by fine dust was quantitatively compared through image processing after contamination of the outer fabric for 4 types of commercially available functional clothing with fine-dust blocking effect. The difference in particle contamination according to the material of the outer fabric was analyzed by comparing the surface resistance, and it was found that the higher the surface resistance of the outer fabric material, the more fine dust was attached. The analysis method of this study is expected to be able to quantitatively compare and evaluate the fine-dust blocking performance of functional clothing.

Perceptual Ad-Blocking is a new advertising blocking technique that detects online advertising by using an artificial intelligence-based advertising image classification model. A recent study has shown that these Perceptual Ad-Blocking models are vulnerable to adversarial attacks using adversarial examples to add noise to images that cause them to be misclassified. In this paper, we prove that existing perceptual Ad-Blocking technique has a weakness for several adversarial example and that Defense-GAN and MagNet who performed well for MNIST dataset and CIFAR-10 dataset are good to advertising dataset. Through this, using Defense-GAN and MagNet techniques, it presents a robust new advertising image classification model for adversarial attacks. According to the results of experiments using various existing adversarial attack techniques, the techniques proposed in this paper were able to secure the accuracy and performance through the robust image classification techniques, and furthermore, they were able to defend a certain level against white-box attacks by attackers who knew the details of defense techniques.

Although line production systems with finite buffers have been studied over several decades, except for some special cases there are no explicit expressions for system performances such as waiting times(or response time) and blocking probability. Recently, a max-plus algebraic approach for buffer-sharing systems with constant processing times was introduced and it can lead to analytic expressions for (higher) moment and tail probability of stationary waiting. Theoretically this approach can be applied to general processing times, but it cannot give a proper way for computing performance measures. To this end, in this study we developed simulation models using @RISK software and the expressions derived from max-plus algebra, and computed and compared blocking probability, waiting time (or response time) with respect to two blocking policies: communication(BBS: Blocking Before Service) and production(BAS: Blocking After Service). Moreover, an optimization problem which determines the minimum shared-buffer capacity satisfying a predetermined QoS(quality of service) is also considered.

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) can be expected to provide improved network performance because it transmits data through multiple paths. However, Bufferbloat, which unexpectedly occurs in the transmission path, degrades not only the performance of the corresponding path but also the performance of other paths, so that the performance is worse than that of a single TCP. In this paper, we propose the transmission status monitoring method at the sender's MPTCP level and also HoL packets retransmission algorithm in order to solve the Bufferbloat problem. The proposed algorithm enables Bufferbloat detection by the sender side independently, and it can resolve the HoL blocking problem by identifying the HoL packet in the proposed transmission status monitoring buffer and retransmitting it to the normal path. Simulation results based on NS-3 show that the proposed algorithm achieves the improved throughput performance up to 22.8% compared to the existing MPTCP, and the average number of queued packets in the sender and receiver's buffers is decreased to 44.3% and 9.2%, respectively.

This paper deals with the design rule and performance results of the transient voltage blocking devices (TBD) for low-voltage mains on shipboard. The proposed TBD consists of metal oxide varistors (MOV) and L-C filter to improve noise-elimination performance. Three kinds of TBDs are fabricated and tested by using a combination surge generator which can produce the standard impulse current of 8/20${\mu}$s 2.1kA. As a reults, the proposed TBD with series L-C filter has more excellent transient blocking and noise reduction performance than the conventional TBDs.
