In this paper, an efficient dynamic analysis method of a building structure with viscoelastic dampers is proposed. Viscoelastic dampers are used for the purpose of controlling vibration of buildings. The matrix condensation technlque based on the rigid diaphragm assumption is not readily applicable for building structures with viscoelastic dampers. An improved procedure for damping matrix condensation is employed in the proposed method to increase the efficiency of analysis. Efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are verified through analysis of an example structure.

The performance of communication systems should be tested against a set of requirements. To this end, noise generation systems are used to generate noise signals with specified characteristics. In this paper, we proposed the area-efficient noise generation system based on DCT method. It is shown that the proposed structure results in area reduction of non-DCT block by 40 ∼ 45%. Also, the proposed structure can reduce power consumption by eliminating unnecessary operations in some blocks of noise generation system.

This paper presents an efficient VLSI architecture for transposing matris in high speed. In the case of transposing N*N matrix, N$^{2}$ numbers of transposition cells are configured as regular and spuare shaped structure, and pipeline structure for operating each transposition cell in paralle. Transposition cell consists of register and input data selector. The characteristic of this architecture is that the data to be transposed are divided into several bundles of bits, then processed serially. Using the serial transposition of divided input data, hardware complexity of transpositioncell can be reduced, and routing between adjacent transposition cells can be simple. the proposed architecture is designed and implemented with 0.5 .mu.m VLSI library. As a result, it shows stable operation in 200 MHz and less hardware complexity than conventional architectures.

The optical performance of the reflective polarizer was investigated over three kinds of direct-lit backlights and/or different configurations of the optical sheets. The optical gain factor achieved by using the reflective polarizer increased as the diffuse nature of the optical sheet was enhanced, because of the more efficient polarization conversion. In addition, the gain factor decreased substantially in flat-lamp backlights compared to tubular-lamp backlights, which was ascribed to the high loss factor during the polarization recycling process due to the complex structure and large area of flat lamps. All these results suggested that reducing the loss factor of the backlight is very important for efficient polarization conversion and thus high optical gain of the reflective polarizer.

The modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) and its inverse transform (IMDCT) are employed in subband/transform coding schemes as the analysis/synthesis filter bank based on time domain aliasing cancellation (TDAC). And they are the most computational intensive operations in layer III of the MPEG audio coding standard. In this paper, we propose a new efficient algorithm for the MDCT/IMDCT computation. It is based on the MDCT/IMDCT computation algorithm using the discrete cosine transforms (DCTs), and it employs two discrete cosine transform of type II(DCT-II) to compute the MDCT/IMDCT. In addition to, it takes advantage of ability in calculating the MDCT/IMDCT computation, where the length of a data block is divisible by 4. The proposed algorithm in this paper requires less calculation complexity than the existing methods. Also, it can be implemented by the parallel structure,, and its structure is particularly suitable for VLSI realization.

Interpolation filters are widely used in symbol timing recovery systems to interpolate new sample values at arbitrary points between the existing discrete-time samples. Polynomial interpolation is interpolated by coefficient made inputted information. This paper presents an efficient way to implement polynomial base interpolation filters using support filter changing input. By an example, it is shown that the proposed structure out performs the conventional interpolation structure with less hardware cost.

In this paper, an efficient moment-method technique is proposed for analyzing rectangular waveguide E-plane filters. Techniques are presented for the fast evaluation of Green's function and for the efficient evaluation of integrals arising in the E-plane of the rectangular waveguide. The structure boundary is represented by the piecewise linear segments. Simple pulse-expansion and point-matching technique are used. The entire E-plane filter structure is simulated by the method of moments. Three representative cases of the E-plane filter are analyzed and compared with results by other researchers.

In this paper, we designed Interpolation FIR(Finite Impulse Response) filter and 1-bit SDM(Sigma- Delta Modulator) for small digital audio speaker, which has low power consumption and high output characteristics. In order to achieve high linearity and low distortion performance of the systems, we adopt Type I Chevychev FIR filter which has equiripple characteristics in the pass band and proposed high efficient FIR filter structure. SDM is the most efficient modulation technique among the noise shaping techniques. In this paper, we implemented SDM using CIFB(Cascade of Intergrators, Feed-Back) which is generally used in DAC of small digital audio speakers. The proposed SDM structure can achieve high SNR, high-efficiency characteristics and low power consumption in mobile devices. Also considering manufacture of SoC(System on Chip), we performed simulation with Matlab and Verilog HDL to obtain optimal number of operational bits and verified a good experimental results.

This paper deals with rule extraction from data using rough set theory. We construct the rule base in a hierarchical granulation structure by applying core as a classification criteria at each level. When more than one core exist, the coverage is used for the selection of an appropriate one among them to increase the classification rate and accuracy. In Addition, a probabilistic approach is suggested so that the partially useful information included in inconsistent data can be contributed to knowledge reduction in order to decrease the effect of the uncertainty or vagueness of data. As a result, the proposed method yields more proper and efficient rule base in compatability and size. The simulation result shows that it gives a good performance in spite of very simple rules and short conditionals.

In cost-only incentive contract the emphasis is the attainment of efficient and effective cost control. In contrast multiple incentives contract correlates contractor's profit motives with the generalized government objective function, the decision variables of which are performance or quality (technical progress), time or schedule (timely development and delivery) and the cost (efficient and effective cost control) Under multiple incentive structure, it is essential to formulate the trade-off curves between cost and performance, which are called iso-fee curves. Trade-off curves depict the combination of cost and performance achievement for which the contractor will be rewarded with the same fee. The basic function of trade-off curves is to show he the contractor will be motivated by incentive arragement to trade off or sacrifice the achievement in one incentive element for the acnievment in another.
