Geospatial research on emergency response in multi-level micro-spatial environments (e.g., multi-story buildings) that aims at understanding and analyzing human movements at the micro level has increased considerably since 9/11. Past research has shown that reducing the time rescuers needed to reach a disaster site within a building (e.g., a particular room) can have a significant impact on evacuation and rescue outcomes in this kind of disaster situations. With the purpose developing emergency response systems that are capable of using complex real-time geospatial information to generate fast-changing scenarios, this study develops a Spatiotemporal Optimal Route Algorithm (SORA) for guiding rescuers to move quickly from various entrances of a building to the disaster site (room) within the building. It identifies the optimal route and building evacuation bottlenecks within the network in real-time emergency situations. It is integrated with a Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) based tracking system in order to monitor dynamic geospatial entities, including the dynamic capacities and flow rates of hallways per time period. Because of the limited scope of this study, the simulated data were used to implement the SORA and evaluate its effectiveness for performing 3D topological analysis. The study shows that capabilities to take into account detailed dynamic geospatial data about emergency situations, including changes in evacuation status over time, are essential for emergency response systems.

실시간 시스템에서 정확한 응답 시간과 통신상의 지연이 최소화 될 것이 요구된다. 그러나, 현재의 SNMP 프로토콜은 주기적인 자료 요청을 하는데 많은 통신량을 유발하며, 네트워크 자원을 비효율적으로 사용한다. 본 논문은 현재 사용중인 SNMP에 시간적 제약 조건을 수용할 수 있도록 확장한 실시간 SNMP의 구현에 대한 논문이다. 실시간 SNMP는 기존에 사용하던 SNMP가 주기적 요구 (periodic request)를 수행할 때 발생하는 통신상의 비효율성을 개선하였다. 이를 위해서는, 기존의 SNMP의 서버/클라이언트 방식의 기법에 변화를 주지 않고, 관리국 (Management station)이 Real-Time SNMP PDU를 에이전트에게 전송하며, 실시간 SNMP 에이전트 측에서 관리국에서 요청한 MIB에 대한 정보를 주기적으로 관리국으로 정보를 제공할 수 있게 하였다. 이러한 설계를 바탕으로 관리국과 에이전트 사이의 요구에 대한 정확한 응답 시간(response time)을 제공할 수 있게 하여, 네트워크 관리의 효율을 높일 수 있는 방법을 본 논문에서는 제시하고, 실제 구현 환경에서의 실험을 통하여 성능이 개선됨을 보였다.

Time series of the dynamic response of a slender marine structure was predicted using quadratic Volterra series. The wave-structure interaction system was identified using the NARX(Nonlinear Autoregressive with Exogenous Input) technique, and the network parameters were determined through the supervised training with the prepared datasets. The dataset used for the network training was obtained by carrying out the nonlinear finite element analysis on the freely standing riser under random ocean waves of white noise. The nonlinearities involved in the analysis were both large deformation of the structure under consideration and the quadratic term of relative velocity between the water particle and structure in Morison formula. The linear and quadratic frequency response functions of the given system were extracted using the multi-tone harmonic probing method and the time series of response of the structure was predicted using the quadratic Volterra series. In order to check the applicability of the method, the response of structure under the realistic ocean wave environment with given significant wave height and modal period was predicted and compared with the nonlinear time domain simulation results. It turned out that the predicted time series of the response of structure with quadratic Volterra series successfully captures the slowly varying response with reasonably good accuracy. It is expected that the method can be used in predicting the response of the slender offshore structure exposed to the Morison type load without relying on the computationally expensive time domain analysis, especially for the screening purpose.

The Internet's low cost and ubiquity present an attractive option for real-time distributed control of processes on the factory floor. When integrated with the Internet, the LonWorks open control network can give ubiquitous accessibility with the distributed control nature of information on the factory floor. One of the most important points in real-time distributed control of processes is timely response. There are many processes on the factory floor that require timely response. However, the uncertain time delay inherent in the network makes it difficult to guarantee timely response in many cases. Especially, the transmission characteristics of the LonWorks/IP network show a highly stochastic nature. Therefore, the time delay problem has to be resolved to achieve high performance and quality of the real-time distributed control of the process in the LonWorks/IP Virtual Device Network (VDN). It should be properly predicted and compensated. In this paper, a new distributed control scheme that can compensate for the effects of the time delay in the network is proposed. It is based on the PID controller augmented with the Smith predictor and disturbance observer. Designing methods for output feedback filter and disturbance observer are also proposed. Tracking position control experiment of a geared DC Servo motor is performed using the proposed control method. The performance of the proposed controller is compared with that of the Internal Model Controller (IMC) with the Smith predictor. The result shows that the performance is improved and guaranteed by augmenting a PID controller with both the Smith predictor and disturbance observer under the stochastic time delay in the LonWorks/IP VDN.

Recent molecular and genetic studies in rice, a short-day plant, have elucidated both conservation and divergence of photoperiod pathway genes and their regulators. However, the biological roles of rice genes that act within the autonomous pathway are still largely unknown. In order to better understand the function of the autonomous pathway genes in rice, we conducted molecular genetic analyses of OsFVE, a rice gene homologous to Arabidopsis FVE. OsFVE was found to be ubiquitously expressed in vegetative and reproductive organs. Overexpression of OsFVE could rescue the flowering time phenotype of the Arabidopsis fve mutants by up-regulating expression of the SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CO1 (SOC1) and down-regulating FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) expression. These results suggest that there may be a conserved function between OsFVE and FVE in the control of flowering time. However, OsFVE overexpression in the fve mutants did not rescue the flowering time phenotype in in relation to the response to intermittent cold treatment.

As many sensors and actuators are used in various automated systems, the application of network to real-time distributed control system is gaining acceptance in many industries. In order to take advantages of networking, however, the network should be carefully designed to satisfy real-time distributed control. This paper presents an implementation method of closed-loop control using Profibus-FMS. In order to implement a closed-loop control system, we used industrial computers with Profibus-FMS network cards and a DC servo motor. Through various experiments, the step response of the control system with network was compared with the reference response without network.

Variable wireless channel is a big challenge for real-time video applications, and the rate adaptation of realtime video streaming becomes a hot topic. Intra-video coding is important for high-quality video communication and industrial video applications. In this paper, we proposed a novel adaptive scheme for real-time video transmission with intra-only coding over a wireless network. The key idea of this scheme is to estimate the instantaneous remaining capacity of the network to adjust the quality of the next several video frames, which not only can keep low queuing delay and ensure video quality, but also can respond to bandwidth changes quickly. We compare our scheme with three different schemes in the video transmission system. The experimental results show that our scheme has higher bandwidth utilization and faster bandwidth change response, while maintaining low queuing delay.

본 논문에서는 표준망 관리 프로토콜인 CMIS/CMIP에서 M-Cancel-Get 서비스를 이용한 트래픽 제어방안을 제시하고 성능분석을 하였다. 복수응답 기능단위를 허용하는 M-Get 서비스는 피 관리시스템의 속성을 검색하는 서비스로서 관리 특성상 일상적이고 대량의 응답을 요구하는 서비스이다. 이때 관리응답은피관리시스템이 네트워크의 상황이나 관리시스템의 상황과 무관하게 전송하게 된다. 이에 대해 관리시스템은 자신이 발생시킨 M-Get 서비스의 취소를 알리는 M-Cancel-Get 서비스를 요청할 수 있다.M-Cancel-Get 서비스를 트래픽 제어를 위해 사용하는 경우, 복수응답 패킷수를 증가시키면서 관리응답 시간에 대해 시뮬레이션을 하여 적정 트래픽 제어 시점을 제안하였다. 그리고 그 결과를 백뷴율로 적용하면서 네트워크 부하에 따른 처리율과 일반 패킷의 평균 지연시간에 대해 분석하였다. 그 결과 본 논문에서 제시한 트래픽 제어변수가 처리율과 평균 지연시간에 있어서 우수함을 알 수 있으며, 특히 일반 트래픽이 차지하는 기본 트래픽 밀도가 증가할수록 성능이 향상 됨을 알 수 있다.

The Controller Area Network (CAN) is being widely used for real-time control application and small-scale distributed computer controller systems. When the stuff bits are generated by bit-stuffing mechanism in the CAN network, it causes jitter including variations in response time and delay. In order to eliminate this jitter, stuff bit must be controlled to minimize the response time and reduce the variation of data transmission time. At first, this paper shows that conventional CAN protocol causes the transmission time delay. Secondly, this paper proposes the method to reduce the stuff bits by restriction of available identifier. Finally, data manipulation method can be reduced the number of stuff-bits in the data field. The proposed restriction method of ID and manipulating data field are pretty useful to the real-time control strategy with respect to performance. These procedures are implemented in local controllers of the ISHURO (Inha Semyung Humanoid Robot).
