본 논문에서는 홈 네트워킹을 통해 서비스를 수행하는 정보가전들을 하나의 그룹으로 관리하여, 가정 내에 산재한 정보가전들의 관리의 효율성 및 기기들의 확장성과 분산 투명성을 제공할 수 있는 그룹 관리 모델을 제안한다. 정보가전들의 그룹핑이 필요한 이유는 정보가전 기기들의 복잡한 상호작용을 하나의 그룹으로 관리하고, 향후 그룹으로 구성될 수 있는 기기들의 정보를 관리하여 다양한 통신 환경에서 사용자의 요청에 적합한 정보가전들의 수행 환경을 제공할 수 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 실시간 객체인 TMO(Time-triggered Message-triggered Object) 스키마를 기반으로 정보가전들을 구현하며, 이를 분산 객체그룹(Distributed Object Group)에 적용하여 분산 객체 관리 서비스와 실시간 서비스를 지원받도록 한다.마지막으로 이와 같은 그룹 서비스를 통해 가정 내 주거 환경을 유지하는 정보가전들의 수행성을 시뮬레이션하여, 본 그룹 모델이 지원하는 서비스를 통한 정보가전들의 동작과 상호작용의 정확성을 검증한다.

The Intelligent Space(ISpace) provides challenging research fields for surveillance, human-computer interfacing, networked camera conferencing, industrial monitoring or service and training applications. ISpace is the space where many intelligent devices, such as computers and sensors, are distributed. According to the cooperation of many intelligent devices, the environment, it is very important that the system knows the location information to offer the useful services. In order to achieve these goals, we present a method for representing, tracking and human Jollowing by fusing distributed multiple vision systems in ISpace, with application to pedestrian tracking in a crowd. This paper describes appearance based unknown object tracking with the distributed vision system in intelligent space. First, we discuss how object color information is obtained and how the color appearance based model is constructed from this data. Then, we discuss the global color model based on the local color information. The process of learning within global model and the experimental results are also presented.

As the range of sensor network's applicability is getting wider, it creates new application areas which is required real-time operation, such as military and detection of radioactivity. However, existing researches are focused on effective management for resources, existing sensor network operating system cannot support to real-time areas. In this paper, we propose the ${\mu}TMO$ model which is lightweight real-time distributed object model TMO. We design the real-time sensor network operation system ${\mu}TMO-NanoQ+$ which is based on ETRI's sensor network operation system Nano-Q+. We modify the Nano-Q+'s timer module to support high resolution and apply Context Switch Threshold, Power Aware scheduling techniques to realize lightweight scheduler which is based on EDF. We also implement channel based communication way ITC-Channel and periodic thread management module WTMT.

In this paper, we construct the traffic information database by using the acquired data from the traffic information devices installed in road network, and, by referring to this database, propose the intersection simulation system which can dynamically manage the real-time traffic flow for each section of road from the intersections, This system consists of hierarchical 3 parts, The lower layer is the physical layer where the traffic information is acquired on an actual road. The traffic flow control framework exists in the middle layer. The framework supports the grouping of intersection, the collection of real-time traffic flow information, and the remote monitoring and control by using the traffic information of the lower layer, This layer is designed by extending the distributed object group framework we developed. In upper layer, the intersection simulator applications controlling the traffic flow by grouping the intersections exist. The components of the intersection application in our system are composed of the implementing objects based on the Time-triggered Message-triggered Object(TMO) scheme, The intersection simulation system considers the each intersection on road as an application group, and can apply the control models of dynamic traffic flow by the road's status. At this time, we use the real-time traffic information collected through inter-communication among intersections. For constructing this system, we defined the system architecture and the interaction of components on the traffic flow control framework which supports the TMO scheme and the TMO Support Middleware(TMOSM), and designed the application simulator and the user interface to the monitoring and the controlling of traffic flow.

On mobile devices, image sequences are widely used for multimedia applications such as computer vision, video enhancement, and augmented reality. However, the real-time processing of mobile devices is still a challenge because of constraints and demands for higher resolution images. Recently, heterogeneous computing methods that utilize both a central processing unit (CPU) and a graphics processing unit (GPU) have been researched to accelerate the image sequence processing. This paper deals with various optimizing techniques such as parallel processing by the CPU and GPU, distributed processing on the CPU, frame buffer object, and double buffering for parallel and/or distributed tasks. Using the optimizing techniques both individually and combined, several heterogeneous computing structures were implemented and their effectiveness were analyzed. The experimental results show that the heterogeneous computing facilitates executions up to 3.5 times faster than CPU-only processing.

RTLS used to track the location of object or person in real time. However, if there are a lot of tags and readers, the conventional single RTLS server may fail to estimate location of tags. And if the server cannot receive the tags signal due to pass-loss or NLOS from more than three readers, the server fail to estimate location of tags. In this paper, we propose a special reader which embeds RTLS location engine for distributed RTLS. And by using multi-directional antenna, alleviating multi-path effect and allowing estimate tag's location only using two readers. We also implement the system, we can reduce server packet 16times and get the all results of location estimate in single second. We achieved the location error within 1m.

The aim of this paper is to develop a collaborative design system that can facilitate remote modification and control of a 3D solid model through the Internet. It enables the users to resolve conflicting viewpoints about an issue and collaborate to design a tangible object within a given set of constraints. In order to optimize the collaborative design system, we focus on the results obtained by using the collaborative design method for the real-time modification of a 3D solid model in a distributed environment. It also provides the method of managing the consistency between design entities. The efficiency of the system is verified by implementing it in a distributed environment.

TMO (Tim-triggered Message-triggered Object) 는 분산환경에서의 정시보장 컴퓨팅을 목표로 제안된 실시간 객체 모델이다. TMO는 객체 자료저장소(object data store), 주기와 데드라인에 의해 구동되는 쓰레드와 이벤트 메시지 전달에 의해 데드라인 방식으로 구동되는 쓰레드로 구성된다. 이러한 TMO 의 수행을 위해, 윈도우 운영체제상의 WTMOS, 리눅스 상의 LTMOS 와 리눅스 커널 내부에서 TMO를 제공하기 위한 TMO-Linux등의 엔진들이 개발되었다. 이러한 엔진들은 서로 다른 플랫폼을 가진 네트워크 환경에서 논리적 멀티캐스트 채널 방식의 분산 IPC 를 기반으로 TMO 의 분산 컴퓨팅을 지원한다 단, 기존의 분산 IPC 는 UDP 기반의 브로드캐스트 방식을 사용하기 때문에 같은 서브 네트워크에 속한 노드들로만 분산 환경을 구축할 수 있고, 특정 채널을 사용하지 않는 노드에도 메시지를 전달하는 브로드캐스팅 오버혜드가 발생하며, UDP 의 특성에 기인한 신뢰성 저하의 문제를 갖고 있다 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해, TMO 엔진의 분산 IPC 모델에 Channel Binding을 통한 그룹 커뮤니케이션 기법을 도입하고 이를 TCP 기반으로 확장하였다.

This paper proposes CORBA-based visual servoing system of humanoid robot. To effectively control the humanoid robot which is connected to network, it needs to define necessary services for visual servoing as distribution object, and realize them in the middleware. For realizing it following services should be addressed. Naming service for searching a necessary service with unique name assigned to each object, image service for supplying image obtained from stereo camera. In the experiment, we show the result of balloon tracking and bursting that the robot tracks balloons as target objects in the real time, and if a balloon stop for a certain time, then the robot bursts the balloon.

This paper presents a scalable multiple camera collaboration strategy for active tracking applications in large areas. The proposed approach is based on distributed mechanism but emulates the master-slave mechanism. The master and slave cameras are not designated but adaptively determined depending on the object dynamic and density distribution. Moreover, the number of cameras emulating the master is not fixed. The collaboration among the cameras utilizes global and local sectors in which the visual correspondences among different cameras are determined. The proposed method combines the local information to construct the global information for emulating the master-slave operations. Based on the global information, the load balancing of active tracking operations is performed to maximize active tracking coverage of the highly dynamic objects. The dynamics of all objects visible in the local camera views are estimated for effective coverage scheduling of the cameras. The active tracking synchronization timing information is chosen to maximize the overall monitoring time for general surveillance operations while minimizing the active tracking miss. The real-time simulation result demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.
