Context-aware mobile computing has become the primary approach to realize automatic, autonomous, and user-centric computing in the context of largely increasing the amount of mobile devices used that embed available sensors. However, designing an inference engine nonetheless requires the tasks of analyzing contexts, situations that can be inferred, etc. Moreover, a mobile device has limited resources and limited computation capability, which results in recognizing the common sense of its unsuitable environment for processing inference. Hence, we propose context-situation reasoning elements and their formal models in this paper, and we verify the formal models' applicability by applying them to an example. Finally, we design and implement an inference engine that realize the context-situation inference elements in computing environment, and we experiment an example by using the proposed inference engine to verify applicability and reusability of the inference engine.

We have designed and fabricated ASK modulator MMIC operating at 5.8GHz for OBE used in AGPS (Automatic Gate Passing System). ASK modulator MMIC was designed to apply a sing1e supply voltage of 3V to the drain in order to decrease ACP (Adjacent Channel Power). The measurement result of this chip exhibits on/off characteristic over 30dB. The design parameters are optimized through ADS simulation tool. The layouts and fabrication o( ASK Modulator MMIC were designed and fabricated by using ETRI 0.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ MESFET library. The chip sizes were 1mm $\times$1mm. The performance analysis of the implemented ASK Modulator based on the design parameters is accomplished.

The flexural strength of circular concrete-filled tubes (CCFT) can be estimated by several codes such as ACI, AISC, and Eurocode 4. In AISC and Eurocode, two methods are recommended, which are the strain compatibility method (SCM) and the plastic stress distribution method (PSDM). The SCM of AISC is almost the same as the SCM of the ACI method, while the SCM of Eurocode is similar to the ACI method. Only the assumption of the compressive stress of concrete is different. The PSDM of Eurocode approach is also similar to the PSDM of AISC, but they have different definitions of material strength. The PSDM of AISC is relatively easier to use, because AISC provides closed-form equations for calculating the flexural strength. However, due to the complexity of calculation of circular shapes, it is quite difficult to determine the flexural strength of CCFT following other methods. Furthermore, all these methods give different estimations. In this study, an effort is made to review and compare the codes to identify their differences. The study also develops a computing program for the flexural strength of circular concrete filled tubes under pure bending that is in accordance with the codes. Finally, the developed computing algorithm, which is programmed in MATLAB, is used to generate design aid graphs for various steel grades and a variety of strengths of steel and concrete. These design aid graphs for CCFT beams can be used as a preliminary design tool.

Arduino makes it easy to connect objects and computers. As a result, programming learning using physical computing has been proposed as an effective alternative to SW training for beginners. In this paper, we propose an Arduino-based physical computing education method that can be applied to basic programming subjects. To this end, we propose a basic programming training method based on Arduino analog signals. Currently, physical computing courses focus on digital control when connecting input sensors and output devices in Arduino. However, the contents of programming education using analog signals of Arduino boards are insufficient. In this paper, we proposed and tested the teaching method used for programming education using low-cost materials used for Arduino analog signal-based computing.

We must solve problems caused by mobile computing environments for supporting efficient mobile computing services. The problem is the use of wireless medium having high error rates and low bandwidth, and the sudden network disconnection to reduce the power consumption of a mobile host and the cost of the network connection. For these problems, we proposed the architecture of the partial connection manager and designed and implemented that in this paper. In particular, The partial connection manager creates the limited number of mobile agents according to priority and sends them in parallel to server systems and combines results of them process rapidly the user request. By applying the proposed partial connection manager to the mobile computing services called cybermarket, we knew that the mobile agent technique could be suited to the mobile computing environment and overcome the partial connection problem caused by eh mobile computing environment.

The purposes of the study were to investigate the participation of artists in paper circuit computing learning and to conduct an in-depth study on the formation and development of practical knowledge. To do this, we selected as research participants six artists who participated in the learning program of an art museum, and used various methods such as pre-open questionnaires, participation observation, and individual interviews to collect data. The collected data were analyzed based on community of practice theory. Results showed that the artists participated in the learning based on a desire to use new technology or find a new work production method for interacting with their audiences. In addition, the artists actively formed practical knowledge in the curriculum and tried to apply paper circuit computing to their works. To continuously develop the research, participants formed a study group or set up a practical goal through planned exhibitions. The results of this study can provide implications for practical approaches to, and utilization of, paper circuit computing.

Modem soft computing methods, such as neural networks, evolutionary models and fuzzy logic, are mainly inspired by the problem solving strategies the biological systems use in nature. As such, the soft computing methods are fundamentally different from the conventional engineering problem solving methods, which are based on mathematics. In the author's opinion, these fundamental differences are the key to the full understanding of the soft computing methods and in the realization of their full potential in engineering applications. The main theme of this paper is to discuss the fundamental differences between the soft computing methods and the mathematically based conventional methods in engineering problems, and to explore the potential of soft computing methods in new ways of formulating and solving the otherwise intractable engineering problems. Inverse problems are identified as a class of particularly difficult engineering problems, and the special capabilities of the soft computing methods in inverse problems are discussed. Soft computing methods are especially suited for engineering design, which can be considered as a special class of inverse problems. Several examples from the research work of the author and his co-workers are presented and discussed to illustrate the main points raised in this paper.

In the field of computing service, there is a copernican revolution indebted to development of network & computer technology. Computer system, which is set to mainframe in the 1960's, is advancing torwards to the paradigm of server based computing, so-called thin-client. In thin-client computing, network is the platform which is responsible for transfer of application, so that client execute application installed on server. It is also possible that each system share the computing resource connected with network. In this parer, we suggest component & distributed computing technology as a measn for the implementation of thin-client architecture hence, make the best use of COM(Component Object Model and PYRO(PYthon Remote Objects). We talk about the concept and mechanism of thin-client at the beginning, and propose the design of network architecture for the implementation thin-client.
