In this paper, an adaptive RSSD(reduced-state sequence detection) receiver is proposed for the purpose of reducing the complexity and decision delay of the adaptive MLSD(maximum-likelihood sequence detection) receiver in the mobile satellite channel. The RSSD receiver reconstructs the trellis with a reduced number of states. The performance degradation due to the reduced states is compensated by modifying the branch metric calculation which uses the symbols in each path memory to estimate the residual ISI(intersymbol interference) terms. The structure of the proposed adaptive RSSD is a modified RSSD utilizing a per-survivor processing as well as the symbol-aided method and a channel estimation using the tentative data sequences. The complexity and performance of the proposed adaptive RSSD are controlled by the number of system states and ISI cancelers and the inserting period of the known symbols. In spite of a suboptimal alternative receiver compared to the adaptive MLSD receiver, the proposed adaptive RSSD receiver is able to reduce the complexity significantly and track the time-varying channel fast and reliably.

Data dissemination using either flooding or legacy ad-hoc routing protocol is not realistic approach in the wireless sensor networks, which are composed of sensor nodes with very weak computing power, small memory and limited battery. In this paper, we propose the ELF(Energy-efficient Localized Flooding) protocol. The ELF is energy-efficient data dissemination protocol for wireless sensor networks. In the ELF protocol, there are two data delivery phases between fixed source and mobile sink node. The first phase, before the tracking zone, sensing data are forwarded by unicasting. After that, within the tracking zone, sensing data are delivered by localized flooding. Namely, the ELF Properly combines advantages from both unicasting and flooding. According to evaluation results by simulation, the proposed ELF protocol maintains very high data delivery ratio with using a little energy. Also, the property of average delay is better than others. From our research results, the ELF is very effective data dissemination protocol for wireless sensor networks.

In this study, the basic purpose was to identify the characteristics of the perception response of the elements that have an influence on the information search process for an assessment of product preference. Also, the relationship between the characteristics and the preference of products were reviewed in terms of the experience of the use of products. For this, photos of mobile phones and proposal-type products were selected and the experimental stimulant and experiments were conducted in two steps. In the first experiment, observations were made on the photos of the proposed products and they were arranged in the order of preference. In the second experiment, the part with the first attention in the preference assessment was marked by using the product photos that were previously selected and ranking them from 1 to 10. Two conclusions were obtained from the results of the experiment. First, the experimental memory information with the experience of the use of the products activates an interpretational response to the various constitutional elements included in the object for conception in the process of a preference rating. Second, no product use experience induces the reaction that perceptually accepts the esthetical elements included in the object for perception, regardless of preference.

With mobile devices showing marked improvement in performance in the age of the Internet of Things (IoT), there is demand for rapid processing of the extensive amount of multimedia big data. However, because research on image searching is focused mainly on increasing accuracy despite environmental changes, the development of fast processing of high-resolution multimedia data queries is slow and inefficient. Hence, we suggest a new distributed image search algorithm that ensures both high accuracy and rapid response by using feature extraction of distributed images based on MapReduce, and solves the problem of memory scalability based on BIRCH indexing. In addition, we conducted an experiment on the accuracy, processing time, and scalability of this algorithm to confirm its excellent performance.

Audio Video Standard (AVS) is the audio and video compression standard that was developed for domestic video applications in China. AVS employs low complexity tools to minimize degradation of RD performance of the state-the-art video codec, H.264/AVC. The AVS video codec consists of $8{\times}8$ block prediction and the same size transform to improve compression efficiency for VGA and higher resolution sequences. Currently, the AVS has been adopted more and more for IPTV services and mobile applications in China. So, many consumer electronics companies and multimedia-related laboratories have been developing applications and chips for the AVS. In this paper, we implemented the AVS video decoder and optimize it on TI's Davinci EVM DSP board. For improving the decoding speed and clocks, we removed unnecessary memory operations and we also used high-speed VLD algorithm, linear assembly, intrinsic functions and so forth. Test results show that decoding speed of the optimized decoder is $5{\sim}7$ times faster than that of the reference software (RM 5.2J).

Recently portable mobile devices such as smart-phones and notebooks have rapidly increasing demands. Those devices consume more power because they are expected to offer more complex functionality including multimedia features. For these reasons engineering efforts are changing to focus on maximizing energy efficiency within a limited battery capacity instead of increasing computational performance. In this paper, we propose a battery management system using event driven programming technique on a embedded processor. We also show that the proposed system satisfies SBS (Smart Battery Specification) v1.1. The proposed system maintains minimum code size and memory size comparing to those of RTOSs. The proposed system can be also easily incorporated in the conventional RTOSs as a form of firmware.
