The Trellis Coded Modulation(TCM) allows the considerable achievements of coding gains compare with conventional multi-level modulation without compromising bandwidth efficiency. In this paper, we are presented a design of the parallel Viterbi decoder for 16-QAM TCM decoder with large constraint length (K=9), which can be applicable for the Digital Audio Broadcasting(DAB) receiver. As a mid-term result, a parallel Branch Metric Calculator (BMC)can compute 16 BMs within 3 clocks and a parallel 16 Add-Compare-Selects (ACS) unit can compute in a single clock. And also, two 256 Path Metric Memories (PMM) 32 Trace Back(TB) memories are specially designed with shuffle exchange switches for 16 parallel accesses. As a VHDL simulation, we can find the correctness of proposed model, which can be operated 16 S per symbol. Now, we are performing the hardware reduction for realtime operation and FPGA implementation.

This paper presents a systematic method to compute a reliability measure for a short term electrical load forecasting system using neuro-fuzzy models. It has been realized that the reliability computation is essential for a load forecasting system to be applied practically. The proposed method employs a local reliability measure in order to exploit the local representation characteristic of the neuro-fuzzy models. It, hence, estimates the reliability of each fuzzy rule learned. The design procedure of the proposed short term load forecasting system is as follows: (1) construct initial structures of neuro-fuzzy models, (2) store them in the initial structure bank, (3) train the neuro-fuzzy model using an appropriate initial structure, and (4) compute load prediction and its reliability. In order to demonstrate the viability of the proposed method, we develop an one hour ahead load forecasting system by using the real load data collected during 1996 and 1997 at KEPCO. Simulation results suggest that the proposed scheme extends the applicability of the load forecasting system with the reliably computed reliability measure.

본 논문에서는 DVB-S2 기반 LDPC 부호의 반복 복호횟수를 줄이기 위한 계산 복잡도가 줄어든 early stopping 방식을 제안한다. DVB-S2 기반 LDPC 복호기는 최대 64800 비트의 부호를 처리해야 되기 때문에 그 자체로 매우 높은 계산 복잡도를 가진다. 기존 early stopping 방식은 64800 비트의 DVB-S2 LDPC 코드를 이용하여 early stopping 기준치를 계산하는데 있어 높은 계산 복잡도를 가진다. 따라서 제안 방식은 LDPC 부호의 계층적 복호방식중 하나인 Horizontal Shuffling Scheduling 복호 방식에 early stopping 방식을 간단하게 적용함으로써 기존 방식 대비 최대 70%의 계산량 감소를 달성하였다. 실험 결과는 제안 방식을 적용한 LDPC 복호 알고리즘이 기존 방식 대비 Bit Error Rate 성능이 더 우수하다는 것을 보여준다.

e-마켓플레이스는 구매자들이 보다 신뢰할 수 있는 판매자와 거래할 수 있도록 평판 시스템(Reputation system)을 구축하여 예비 소비자들에게 판매자의 평판을 제공한다. 판매자의 평판은 소비자의 평점을 기반으로 산출되는데 이 때 소비자의 평가 요소로는 판매자의 행동에 대한 평가와 상품에 대한 평가가 있다. 기존의 평판 계산 방안들은 구매자의 평점이 두 가지의 평가가 혼합된 점수라는 것을 인지하지 못한 채로 판매자의 평판을 산출한다. 본 논문에서는 소비자 평점을 판매자 점수와 상품 점수로 분리한 후 오직 '판매자의 점수'만을 이용하는 평판 계산 방안을 제안한다. 제안하는 방안은 판매자의 점수만을 이용하여 판매자의 능력에 대한 평판만을 제공하는 방안으로 예비 소비자들이 빠른 배송과 친절한 서비스를 제공하는 판매자를 선택할 수 있도록 돕는다. 실험에서는 실제 e-마켓 플레이스의 현실성을 반영한 시뮬레이션 방안을 제안한다. 생성된 시뮬레이션 데이터를 기반으로 진행하는 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법의 우수성을 입증한다.

The flow in the draft tube cone of Francis turbines operated at partial discharge is a complex hydrodynamic phenomenon where an incoming steady axisymmetric swirling flow evolves into a three-dimensional unsteady flow field with precessing helical vortex (also called vortex rope) and associated pressure fluctuations. The paper addresses the following fundamental question: is it possible to compute the circumferentially averaged flow field induced by the precessing vortex rope by using an axisymmetric turbulent swirling flow model? In other words, instead of averaging the measured or computed 3D velocity and pressure fields we would like to solve directly the circumferentially averaged governing equations. As a result, one could use a 2D axi-symmetric model instead of the full 3D flow simulation, with huge savings in both computing time and resources. In order to answer this question we first compute the axisymmetric turbulent swirling flow using available solvers by introducing a stagnant region model (SRM), essentially enforcing a unidirectional circumferentially averaged meridian flow as suggested by the experimental data. Numerical results obtained with both models are compared against measured axial and circumferential velocity profiles, as well as for the vortex rope location. Although the circumferentially averaged flow field cannot capture the unsteadiness of the 3D flow, it can be reliably used for further stability analysis, as well as for assessing and optimizing various techniques to stabilize the swirling flow. In particular, the methodology presented and validated in this paper is particularly useful in optimizing the blade design in order to reduce the stagnant region extent, thus mitigating the vortex rope and expending the operating range for Francis turbines.

This paper presents the effect of data-hold methods on stability of haptic system with a virtual wall. When a human operator interacts with virtual wall, the lager the stiffness of the virtual wall is, the more realistic the operator feels that the virtual wall is. However, if the stiffness of the virtual wall becomes extremely large, the system may be unstable. When a virtual wall is designed, it is necessary to analyze the maximum available stiffness to guarantee a stable haptic interaction. The simulation model in this paper is developed based on the haptic device model, sampler, a virtual wall model, and data hold methods to compute the maximum stiffness for stability. The effectiveness of the simulation is evaluated through comparing the results of previous studies with the results of this simulation. In addition, the effects of two data hold methods, that is, zero-order hold (ZOH) and first-order hold (FOH) on the stability are analyzed and the values of the maximum available stiffness are compared through the simulation.

플라즈마(Plasma) 공정 시뮬레이션에서 가장 중요한 요소는 식각(Etching) 과정으로 특성 정보 프로파일(Feature Profile)에 의존하는 식각 비율(Etch Rate)을 계산하는 것이다. 식각 비율을 결정 요소는 이온 플럭스(Ion Flux), 뉴트럴 플럭스(Neutral Flux), 가스 종 온도 등 다양하지만 본 논문에서는 이온 플럭스(Ion Flux)에 한정하여 고속으로 이온 플럭스를 계산하기 위한 스캔 방법을 제안했다. 그리고 일반적으로 많이 사용되어지는 몬테카를로(Monte Carlo) 방법과 제안 방법을 가우시안 분포 및 코사인 분포를 이용하여 실험하고 서로 비교 분석하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법이 몬테카를로 방법과 비교 했을 때 보다 효율적으로 정확한 이온 플럭스를 계산 할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the validity of the digital ergonomic simulation (DES) method as a prospective alternative to the ergonomic analyses conducted by experts. The DES method utilizes commercial digital manufacturing software, and can compute the RULA scores continuously throughout the simulated work cycle. It was shown in a case study that the accuracy and objectivity of the DES method are superior to those obtained by experts. Also, it was demonstrated that the DES method has a distinct capability to simulate and validate a proposed work plan. Major limitations of the current DES method lie in the extensive time and efforts required for accurate digital simulation, which may be overcome through an automatic module for RULA data acquisition and a motion capture system.

The purpose of this study is modelling of system air-conditioner for TRNSYS. System air-conditioner is operated by a variable capacity compressor and accommodated by multiple evaporators. By reason of these feature, realizing performance of system air-conditioner for TRNSYS was incomplete. In this study performance data of system air-conditioner and control logics are used to make system air-conditioner module for TRNSYS. Performance data contains total capacity, power input and capacity index of system air-conditioner. The simulation was carried out in a mode of temperature level control using TRNSYS 16. The simulation shows that the system air-conditioner model operate variable capacity and can compute capacity index and power input of system.

To achieve high-speed communication and to improve QoS characteristics, ATM is now being used as underlying transfer mechanism of Internet protocols, or TCP/IP. When TCP uses the ABR service in ATM networks, the ABR service control is important to improve the performance of TCP/IP traffic as long as there is no interaction between ABR rate control and TCP flow control. In such environment, the interoperability of EFCI and ER switches becomes unavoidable in order to more effectively control ABR traffic in ATM network. In this paper, we use the model of mixed EFCI-ER environment and discuss the performance issues, e.g., the fairness of bandwidth allocation, drop rate, throughput by using various ER switch algorithms. Among various ERSwitch algorithms, we present one algorithm that have a less network topology and allocate the fair share of VC bandwidth by simulation results.
