The Quality of Experience (QoE) of next Generation wired/wireless network services based upon IP networking is becoming a popular issue in recent years. The user experience of Internet services such as IPTV, online game, web surfing and etc, are becoming the most desirable factors to service providers to improve service performance and customer's satisfaction. However, collecting user experience from customers and obtaining the QoE parameters from the Quality of Service (QoS) parameters such as bandwidth, delay, jitter or admission control algorithm, are difficult subjects because of the various service types and user characteristics. In this paper, we propose a framework which contains service classification, QoE analysis and service enhancement steps for a suitable QoE measurement and management protocol. We define the user satisfaction indicators of the Internet services, classify the categories of each type of services, and analyse the Key Performance Indicator (KPI) in each type of services to perform the QoS parameters and improving the service qualities.

In this paper, design problem of QFT-PSS using Genetic Algorithm(GA) is investigated for power systems with parameter variation and disturbance uncertainties. A robust controller for uncertain power systems can be designed automatically such that the cost of feedback is minimized and all robust stability and performance specifications are satisfied. It is shown that the proposed design method not only automates loop shaping but also improves design quality and improves the quality with a reduced order controller. The robustness of the proposed controller has been investigated on a single machine infinite bus model. The results are shown that the proposed QFT-PSS using GA is more robust tan conventional PSS.

The performance of an OMR (Optical Music Recognition) system is usually determined by the characterizing features of the input music score images. Low resolution is one of the main factors leading to degraded image quality. In this paper, we handle the low-resolution problem using the super-resolution technique. We propose the use of a deep neural network with instance normalization to improve the quality of music score images. We apply instance normalization which has proven to be beneficial in single image enhancement. It works better than batch normalization, which shows the effectiveness of shifting the mean and variance of deep features at the instance level. The proposed method provides an end-to-end mapping technique between the high and low-resolution images respectively. New images are then created, in which the resolution is four times higher than the resolution of the original images. Our model has been evaluated with the dataset "DeepScores" and shows that it outperforms other existing methods.

For the performance enhancement of communication system, high quality filters are required. Also a minimization of size of filter is required for the interation of devices in the limited area. Conventional metal filters made of copper can be substituted by high quality high temperature superconducting(HTS) films for better performance. Hairpin type filters have been designed with the center frequency 14 GHz for the size reduction. 3-pole and 4-pole filters centered at 14 GHz with the bandwidth of about 300 MHz were designed and fabricated. With the simulation results, the frequency responses showed low insertion loss and sharp skirts characteristics. The frequency response of HTS 14 GHz fi1ter was measured at 77 K and compared with the simulation results. We have compared YBCO filters and copper filters which were made with the same design rules. Simulated and measured frequency responses reveal that HTS YBCO hairpin type bandpass filters show better performance than copper filters.

In recent automotive industries there has been significant increase in applications of computer simulation to the manufacturing of stamping dies for inner and outer body panels which greatly affect durability and aesthetic quality of automobiles. Enhancement of die quality and reduction of total die manufacturing time and consequently manufacturing cost are the visible outcome. However to successfully apply the result of simulation by a commercial package to the die manufacturing development of an optimal die manufacturing process is required upon the completion of analysis of forte and shortcoming of available sheet metal forming softwares. Based on the results of numerical analysis of front door outer panel forming. this paper evaluates the applicability of simulation results to the real die manufacturing for automotive body panels. Also it attempts to select an optimal die manufacturing process including design machining and tryout. Lastly it discusses the expected effects by adopt-ing the selected process in a real stamping die manufacturing facility.

Peeled chestnuts were stored at different temperatures($-10^{\circ}C$ and $-20^{\circ}C$) and for different times(0, 10, and 20 min at $90^{\circ}C$) for blanching over a 6 month period. Analyses were conducted for moisture content, total sugar content, browning index, polyphenol compounds, PPO activity, and SEM. Moisture content and PPO activity were increased by storage time. The increments for the samples stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ were lower that for the samples stored at $-10^{\circ}C$. The Browning index was increased by storage time, and increments for the samples stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ were lower that for the samples stored at $-10^{\circ}C$. Scanning electronic microscopy(SEM) studies were performed on peeled chestnuts. Results showed that the wrinkle structure of the cell wall was enhanced by storage time, and the level of enhancement was higher at $-10^{\circ}C$ than at $-20^{\circ}C$.

The design of an efficient scaler to enhance the edge data is one of the most important issues in video signal applications, because the perceptual quality of the processed image is sensitively affected by the degradation of edge data. Various conventional scaling schemes have been proposed to enhance the edge data. In this paper, we propose an efficient scaling algorithm for this purpose. The proposed method is based on the discrete cosine transform-based interpolation filter (DCT-IF) because it outperforms other scaling algorithms in various configurations. The proposed DCT-IF incorporates weighting parameters that are optimized for training data. Simulation results show that the quality of the resized image produced by the proposed DCT-IF is much higher than that of those produced by the conventional schemes, although the proposed DCT-IF is more complex than other conventional scaling algorithms.

In modern society, people live in an environment with artificial or natural noise. Especially, the sound that corresponds to the artificial noise makes the noise itself and affects each other because many people live and work in the city. Sounds are generated by the activities and causes of various people, such as construction sites, aircraft, production machinery, or road traffic. These sounds are essential elements in human life and are recognized and judged by human auditory organs. Noise is a sound that you do not want to hear by subjective evaluation, and it is a loud sound that gives hearing damage or a sound that causes physical and mental harm. In this study, we introduce the method of stimulating the human hearing by finger vibration and explain the advantages of the proposed method in various kinds of a noise environment. And how to improve the sound quality to improve efficiency. In this paper, we propose a method to prevent the loss of hearing loss and the transmission of sound information based on proper signal to noise ratio when using portable IT equipment in various noise environments.

Field Emission display (FEDs) require enhancement in both driving methods and process techniques to improve the display image quality. However, from the point of view of manufacturing, it is difficult to find methods and techniques to realize low cost manufacturing. New and simple color phosphor screen designs were suggested with non-crossed electrode lines and full color anode panels for small area displays were demonstrated. To avoid unwanted reaction with gases produced from phosphors in a high vacuum glass container, a very thin polyimide layer was coated on the phosphor screen. Moreover, to improve the display image quality, black matrix composed of inorganic materials was fabricated. This paper describes the performance and characteristics of the new full color anode panels.
