As it became possible to generate 3D sound on a PC environment due to the advances in computing performance and digital signal processing technology, 3D sound technology gains its focus in the multimedia area Specifically a two-channel based 3D sound technology is being studied by many researchers because of its space efficiency and economical structure. While the positional sound effect is simple in its implementation, the moving sound effect has many problems to be resolved as there are only discrete measured point of HRTF database. In this paper, we propose the method of generating smooth moving sound in a two-channel based 3D sound technique with respect to generating smooth trajectory, and the interpolation method of discrete measured HRTF data. We perform the tests in the PC environment and prove the utility of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose a new texture-based page segmentation and classification method in which table region, background region, image region and text region in a given document image are automatically identified. The proposed method for document images consists of two stages, document segmentation and contents classification. In the first stage, we segment the document image, and then, we classify contents of document in the second stage. The proposed classification method is based on a texture analysis. Each contents in the document are considered as regions with different textures. Thus the problem of classification contents of document can be posed as a texture segmentation and analysis problem. Two-dimensional Gabor filters are used to extract texture features for each of these regions. Our method does not assume any a priori knowledge about content or language of the document. As we can see experiment results, our method gives good performance in document segmentation and contents classification. The proposed system is expected to apply such as multimedia data searching, real-time image processing.

This paper proposes an algorithm of segmentation and title detection for document image. The automated title detection method that we have developed is composed of two phases, segmentation and title area detection. In the first phase, we extract and segment the document image. To perform this operation, the binary map is segmented by combination of morphological operation and CCA(connected component algorithm). The first phase provides segmented regions that would be detected as title area for the second stage. Candidate title areas are detected using geometric information, then we can extract the title region that is performed by removing non-title regions. After classification step that removes non-text regions, projection is performed to detect a title region. From the fact that usually the largest font is used for the title in the document, horizontal projection is performed within text areas. In this paper, we proposed a method of segmentation and title detection for various forms of document images using geometric features and projection profile analysis. The proposed system is expected to have various applications, such as document title recognition, multimedia data searching, real-time image processing and so on.

Better quality software can be made by eliminating the software product risk in the early stages. To achieve this task, a risk analysis system that can effectively track and manage risks that have severe effects on software quality is needed. The existing risk analysis systems have some weaknesses as they are applied to organizations. The major problems of those systems are that they require organizations to collect as much risk data at a time without providing a proper explanation and even without the support of a risk management process. This paper resolves those problems by developing a risk analysis system that offers methods of managing risks. In addition, the system provides the guidelines of which risks should be gathered for each step. The system also has functions to generate a range of strategy and analysis information on risks.

본 논문에서는 지상파 이동 멀티미디어 방송(Digital multimedia Broadcasting, DMB) 에서 비디오 영상과 데이터를 동기화 하는데 필요한 규약을 제안하고, 비디오와 데이터간의 동기화 규약을 생성하는 저작도구 구현을 기술한다. 기존의 아날로그 라디오 방송에서는 단순히 오디오만 청취할 수 있었던 것에 반해, DMB 방송에서는 비디오 영상과 관련된 정보들이 결합하여 시청자의 의견이 즉각 방송에 반영 가능한 인터랙티브 TV 프로그램을 시청 할 수 있게 되었다. 예를 들어, 퀴즈 쇼에서 출제된 문제(데이터)들이 비디오 영상과 동기를 맞추는 것이 가능해 짐에 따라 시청자도 퀴즈 쇼 출연자와 동시에 같은 문제를 풀 수도 있고 정답을 바로 응답할 수 있게 되는 것이다. 이때, 위와 같이 비디오 영상과 동기화된 데이터를 전송하기 위해서는 비디오와 데이터간의 동기를 이루어 낼 수 있는 기준 시간 즉 동기화 시간의 설정이 선행되어야 한다. 동기화 시간으로 사용 가능한 시간 값으로는 DMB의 한 서비스 형태인 Slide-Show Application 에서 사용되는 UTC를 이용하는 방법, 혹은 비디오 영상의 CTS를 이용하는 방법이 있다. 본 논문에서는 비디오와 데이터간의 동기화를 위해서는 UTC가 적합하지 않고 CTS를 사용해야 된다는 것을 보이고, CTS를 이용하는 동기화 규약을 생성하는 저작도구를 기술한다.

The Web is rich with various sources of information. It contains the contents of documents, multimedia data, shopping materials and so on. Due to the massive and heterogeneous web document collections, users want to find various types of target pages. We can classify user queries as three categories according to users'intent, content search, the site search, and the service search. In this paper, we present that different strategies are needed to meet the need of a user. Also we show the properties of content information, link information and URL information according to the class of a user query. In the content search, content information showed the good result. However, we lost the performance by combining link information and URL information. In the site search, we could increase the performance by combining link information and URL information.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of a multicode-CDMA system which have been proposed for the multimedia communications. The performance of a multicode-CDMA system, providing good spectrum efficiency as well as serving various bit rates, is analyzed with multipath, frequency selective, slowly fading Rayleigh channel. Also the proposed scheme adopting RAKE receiver with MRC(Maximal Ratio Combine) is advantageous to multipath channel. For a practical channel modeling, the JTC(Joint Technical Committee) recommended channel model(JTC(AIR) 23-065R6) is applied to simulation. The proposed schemehas serial-to-parallel convertor which splits input data stream of 2 Mits/s into 20 branches o 100 kbits/s. From the result of simulation, the case of RAKE receiver with 3 fingers to reduce the system complexity required the relatively large $E_{b}/N_O$ of 0 dB~1.5 dB, compared to the case of RAKE receiver with the number of path finger to keep the average error rate to be $1{\times}10^{-3}$ in channel A.

One of the most important topics of recent years is that a multimedia technology such as wireless ATM has been introduced in radio systems for video, voice and data transmission. A major problem in such systems is the occurrence of errors due to multipath fading or interference. To combat this problem, forward error correction (FEC) coding is commonly used as a means of eliminating these errors. This paper has analyzed theoretically the effect of fading to design effective wireless ATM system. The BER, CLR, and CER of wireless ATM system adopting FEC coding and diversity reception techniques have been derived in fading environment. Also, simulations of BER and CLR have been carried out and compared with the above theoretical results.

Digital Broadcast Service is being very popular and the delivery mechanism for digital broadcast content through IP network has progressed constantly, due to the advance of video and audio compression and network technologies. From these trends, in Korea, the commercial IPTV service starts in this year after the law related to IPTV is enacted last year. Since IPTV service, which integrates broadcast and communication services, can give an infrastructure for fusion of communication and interactive multimedia data service, IPTV service is attractive. Recently, by the advent of various wireless connection technologies and the mobile devices of high capability, Mobile IPTV, which has an advantage of not only IPTV but also mobile TV, has gained much interest. In this paper, we review a necessary ingredient for Mobile IPTV in the next generation wired/wireless convergence network environment which consists of heterogeneous wireless access networks. In addition, we propose the scheme for user mobility and service session mobility management using RTSP protocol and introduce the service gateway concept to guarantee the extension of IPTV service platform.
