Nursing students who play a role as future nursing professions are provided with education through various teaching and learning methods in order to develop necessary competencies. The purpose of this study is to confirm the effect of nursing practice education using multimedia. A quasi experimental study with a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used, and the participants of the study were students from two nursing colleges, who received an educational intervention using multimedia as the experimental group and those without education were selected as the control group. Data collection was conducted immediately before and after educational intervention, and data analysis was performed using the SPSS 21.0 program by x²-test, Fisher's exact probability, and t-test. As a result of the study, the experimental group was statistically significant in self-efficacy (t=3.402, p=0.015), resilience (t=2.047, p=0.045) and performance confidence (t=2.128, p=0.018) compared to the control group. Through these results, we could confirm that multi-media practical education is effective educational method for enhancing nursing students' self-efficacy, resilience, and performance confidence. Therefore, in order to establish a systematization of the nursing profession, it is essential and should be continued for nursing students to use structured multimedia and core fundamental nursing skills.

Multimedia services in the cloud have become a popular trend in the big data environment. However, how to efficiently schedule a large number of multimedia services in the cloud is still an open and challengeable problem. Current cloud-based scheduling algorithms exist the following problems: 1) the content of the multimedia is ignored, and 2) the cloud platform is a known parameter, which makes current solutions are difficult to utilize practically. To resolve the above issues completely, in this work, we propose a novel distributed multimedia scheduling to satisfy the objectives: 1) Develop a general cloud-based multimedia scheduling model which is able to apply to different multimedia applications and service platforms; 2) Design a distributed scheduling algorithm in which each user makes a decision based on its local information without knowing the others' information; 3) The computational complexity of the proposed scheduling algorithm is low and it is asymptotically optimal in any case. Numerous simulations have demonstrated that the proposed scheduling can work well in all the cloud service environments.

As the use of mobile multimedia devices is increasing in the recent year, the needs for high-performance multimedia processors are increasing. In this regard, we propose a SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) based parallel processor that supports high-performance multimedia applications with low energy consumption. The proposed parallel processor consists of 16 processing elements(PEs) and operates on a 3-stage pipelining. Experimental results for the JPEG encoding algorithm indicate that the proposed parallel processor outperforms conventional parallel processors in terms of performance and energy efficiency. In addition, the proposed parallel processor architecture was developed and verified with verilog HDL and a FPGA prototype system.

Nowadays, as digital technologies are rapidly developed and requirements for the various types of broadband multimedia services increases, the radio broadcasting is moving to digitalization. DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting), as an alternation of existing analog radio broadcasting, is a new type of multimedia broadcasting system. DAB supports not only high-quality audio broadcasting but also various types of multimedia data services. In this paper, we investigate the performance optimization method of MOT Protocol, as the standard for additional services, to support the multimedia services in the DAB network. Because the performance of the MOT protocol is dependent on various parameters such as segment size, segment repetition and so on, we find those by simulation for performance optimization. According to simulation results, the suitable segment size is about 2Kbyte and segment repetition is 4 times for performance optimization.

In this paper, the performance analysis for multimedia video codec(MPEG-4, H.264) on on-chip network communication architecture is presented. The On-Chip Network (OCN) is the new communication architecture of multimedia SoC design that overcomes the limits of On-Chip Bus architecture by providing higher data traffic bandwidth, reusability and higher scalability. We compared the performance of MPEG-4, H.264 decoder based on-chip network and AMBA on-chip bus. Experimental results show that the performance of MPEG-4, H.264 based on on-chip network is improved over 33~56% compared to the design based on AMBA on-chip bus.

Multimedia streaming data is very large in size and accessed sequentially, making the LRU(Least Recently Used) algorithm widely used to improve I/O performance in traditional caching environments ineffective. Experimental analysis of this has shown the superiority of interval-based caching over LRU, but the theoretical basis has not been proven. In this paper, we design a cache performance model to analyze the optimality of caching for multimedia streaming environments and design a theoretically optimal caching algorithm based on interval caching. Then, we show that the algorithm we design is an optimal algorithm that minimizes cache misses of streaming data based on the proposed model.

Mobile devices, such as PDAs, portable multimedia players, are more likely to encompass large storage devices with prevalance of high-quality multimedia contents. This paper proposes an object-based multimedia contents storage architecture that employs the object-based storage device model and the iSCSI protocol. It also provides a multimedia content player that operates directly with the proposed storage architecture. We implement both the proposed storage architecture and the multimedia content player upon the Linux environment. Performance evaluation by playing MP3 multimedia contents reveals that the proposed storage architecture reduces the total power consumption by 9%, compared with an existing networked storage. This enhancement is mainly contributed to the fact that a large portion of the file system is moved into the object-based multimedia contents storage from the mobile device.

This paper studies the Internet stream server which serves multimedia stream services such as VoD and MoD. The Internet multimedia stream server is developed to provide 50 users with continuous multimedia stream contents simultaneously. This paper focuses on introducing design concepts, operation details and on evaluating system performance and doing sensitivity analysis with respect to the change of the system components. The performance evaluation is performed using simulation in order to identify the system component that mostly affects the system performance. The sensitivity analysis shows the service delay rates of the multimedia stream server depending on the user's service request pattern. Also, the analysis is made on the utilization rates of the core system components such as the PCI bus and the Ethernet card, and on the system performance change by adding more system components.
