In this paper, we propose an agent negotiation algorithm of an intelligent agent system for an active and adaptive multimedia data services in the distributed environment. We describe theEARTS-II system that performs automatic job seeking and job offering operations using intelligentagents without user's intervention. EARTS-II offers best candidate lists as the results to usersthrough negotiation among agents considering conditions given by the users. And according to theresults, the EARTS-II supports real processes of employment, The negotiation algorithm tries tosatisfy all agents in the job market. To test the performance of the algorithm, simulation results arepresented.

유연성 있고 확장성 있는 분산 어플리케이션을 작성하기 위해서는 다음과 같은 요건을 만족하는 서비스 개발 및 관리를 위한 프레임워크이 필요하다. 첫 번째 서비스들은 외부적인 어떤 정책이나 어플리케이션 구동 시 다양한 제한 등의 요인으로 인하여 선택적으로 서비스 사용이 가능해야 한다. 둘째로 서비스에 대해서 초기화, 구동, 임시정지, 정지 등과 같은 제어를 중앙 집중형태로 관리 콘솔에서 관리 할 수 있어야 한다. 세 번째로 서비스를 제어할 때 각 서비스들 사이의 의존관계를 반영할 수 있어야 한다. 네 번째로 이러한 분산어플리케이션의 서비스에 대한 환경 설정 부분에 대한 변경을 실시간으로 탐지를 해서 이러한 변경과 관계가 있는 서비스에게 통지를 할 수 있어야 한다. 다섯 번째로 한 어플리케이션 안에서 구동되고 있는 의존관계가 있는 각 서비스들 사이의 이벤트 기반의 통신을 메커니즘이 필요하다. 여섯번째로 환경 설정 변경에 대해서 분산 상황에서 다른 어플리케이션과 동기화를 맞출 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문은 이러한 유연하고 확장성 있는 어플리케이션을 개발하는데 필요한 자바 기반의 동적 서비스 관리 프레임워크에 대한 설계와 구현을 제시한다.

Current P2P (Peer-to-Peer) applications have the limited functions such as file search and transfer between peers and have the limitations such as trust problem on search results, copyright problem, and profitable business model problem. For a P2P application to be used as a business platform for the distribution of various multimedia contents, this paper proposes an extended P2P application architecture and its prototype system including distributed collaborative filtering, automated price negotiation system, and payment mechanism.

The improvement of the social environment and the rapid development of medicine are making possible the age of 100. So a great number of countries including Korea are rapidly becoming the aged society or the super aged society. The elderly are accompanied by discomfort and disability. A variety of systems are developed and distributed to overcome them. The electric wheelchair is an electric motorized system for people who can not manipulate a manual wheelchair. In this paper, we propose an autonomous driving platform for an electric wheelchair. Here we use QR (Quick Response) code for self-localization. We also present real test results of the proposed system.

As power demand increases gradually, the call for underground transmission system increases. But it is very difficult and high in cost to construct new ducts and/or tunnels for power cables in metropolitan areas. HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) cable has the several useful characteristics such as increased power density. Therefore HTS cable can allow more power to be moved in existing ducts, which means very large economical and environmental benefits. In this paper, we carried out investigation for Application of 22kV class HTS cable in Korean utility networks. The results show that the HTS cable is applicable to replace IPB in pumping-up power plant, withdrawal line in distributed generation, withdrawal line in complex power plant, and conventional under ground cable. Finally, as the cost of HTS wire and refrigeration drops, the technical and economical potential of HTS cable is evaluated positively.

Progressive mesh representation and generation have become one of the most important issues in network-based computer graphics. However, current researches are mostly focused on triangular mesh models. On the other hand, solid models are widely used in industry and are applied to advanced applications such as product design and virtual assembly. Moreover, as the demand to share and transmit these solid models over the network is emerging, the generation and the transmission of progressive solid models depending on specific engineering needs and purpose are essential. In this paper, we present a Cellular Topology-based approach to generating and transmitting progressive solid models from a feature-based solid model for internet-based design and collaboration. The proposed approach introduces a new scheme for storing and transmitting solid models over the network. The Cellular Topology (CT) approach makes it possible to effectively generate progressive solid models and to efficiently transmit the models over the network with compact model size.

Bidirectional DC/DC converters allows transfer of power between two dc sources, in either direction. Due to their ability to reverse the direction of flow of power, they are being increasingly used in many applications such as battery charger/dischargers, dc uninterruptible power supplies, electrical vehicle motor drives, aerospace power systems, telecom power supplies, etc. This paper proposes a new bidirectional Sepic/zeta converter. It has low swicthing loss and low conduction loss due to auxiliary communicated circuit and synchronous rectifier operation, respectively. Because of positive and buck/boost-like DC voltage transfer function(M=D/1-D), the proposed converter is very desirable for use in distributed power system . The proposed converter also has both transformerless version and transformer one.

The data grid provides geographically distributed resources for large-scale applications. It generates a large set of data. The replication of this data in several sites of the grid is an effective solution for achieving good performance. In this paper we propose an approach of dynamic replication in a hierarchical grid that takes into account crash failures in the system. The replication decision is taken based on two parameters: the availability and popularity of the data. The administrator requires a minimum rate of availability for each piece of data according to its access history in previous periods, but this availability may increase if the demand is high on this data. We also proposed a strategy to keep the desired availability respected even in case of a failure or rarity (no-popularity) of the data. The simulation results show the effectiveness of our replication strategy in terms of response time, the unavailability of requests, and availability.

The simple motor construction and low cost, fault tolerant power electronic drive has made the switched reluctance drive a strong contender for many applications. But the switched reluctance drive does exhibit higher levels of vibration and acoustic noise than that of most competing drives. The main source of vibration in the switched reluctance drive is generated by rapid change of radial force when phase current is extinguished during commutation action. In this paper, a hybrid excitation method is proposed to reduce vibration and acoustic noise of the switched reluctance drive. The hybrid excitation has 2-phase excitation by long dwell angle as well as conventional 1-phase excitation. The vibration and acoustic noise are reduced because the scheme reduces abrupt change of excitation level by distributed and balanced excitation.

For chemical microsensors such as humidity and gas sensors, it is essential to obtain a single pore with a large inner surface and straight structure. In this paper, cylindrical macroporous silicon layers have been formed of p-silicon substrate by anodization in HF-ethanol-water solution with an applied current. The pores grew normal to the (100) surface and were uniformly distributed. The pore diameter was approximately $1.5~2{\mu}m$ with a depth of $20~30{\mu}m$ and the pores were not interconnected, which are in sharp contrast to the porous silicon reported previouly for similarly doped p-Si. Porous silicon diaphragms 18 to $200{\mu}m$ thick were formed by anistropic etching in TMAH solution and then anodization. The fabrication of macroporous silicon and free-standing diaphragms is expected to offer applications for microsensors, micromachining, and separators.
