  • Over the past few years, smart devices, including smartphones, have been continuously required by users based on portability. The performance is improving. Ubiquitous computing environment and sensor network are also improved. Due to various network connection technologies, mobile terminals are widely used. Smart terminals need technology to make energy monitoring more detailed for more stable operation during use. The smart terminal which is light in small size generates the power shortage problem due to the various multimedia task among the terminal operation. Various estimation hardwares have been developed to prevent such situation in advance and to operate stable terminals. However, the method and performance of estimating the remaining amount are not relatively good. In this paper, we propose a method for estimating the remaining amount of smart terminals. The Capacity Estimation of lithium ion cells for stable operation was estimated based on machine learning. Learning the characteristics of lithium ion cells in use, not the existing hardware estimation method, through a map learning algorithm using machine learning technique The optimized results are estimated and applied.

  • Illuminating Japanese Fisharena Development Policy, we tried to find out some implications on the utilization of fishing port facilities as a way to accommodate uprising marine leisure demands of Korea. The major findings of this study are concentrated in the following three points. First, Japanese Fisharena Development Policy can be functionalized in Korea as a means of policy, but for the intervening difference of demand situation, precise forecasting on the marine leisure demands has to be preceded and Fisharena should be prepared as a supply buffer. Second, in the development stage of Fisharena, Software side is important as well as Hardware side. On the development and operation, utilizing civil organizations is necessary to bring down the wharfage of Fisharena to not suppress the marine leisure demands. Third, selection of the fishing port and decision of the development scale are additional important points. In particular, preferential consideration of utilizing inner-city fishing ports as small-scale Fisherinas to address the marine leisure demands would be desirable in Korea.

  • Home networking has been noticed as a key technology for the home automation because it is possible to remotely monitor and control the in-house appliances and devices through the network. Wireless home networking method is easily applied to the conventional houses compared to the wired home networking method because of low cost and small effort due to no extra wired works. Especially, home networking using the ZigBee protocol is one of the most attractive technologies in the wireless networking area because of its low cost and low power consumption characteristics. However, there are a lot of practical problems to be solved in implementing the ZigBee module and constructing the wireless network. In this paper, one of the practical structures of the hardware and software modules for implementing the ZigBee protocol is proposed. Moreover, problems in constructing the home networking with the proposed ZigBee module are introduced, and the effective solutions to solve these problems are described through various tests.

  • The efficient Viterbi decoder that supports full data-rate output of DAB system was proposed. Viterbi decoder consumes lots of computational load and should be designed to be fast specific hardware. In this paper, SST scheme was adopted for Viterbi decoder with puncturing to reduced the power consumption. Puncturing vector tables are modified and re-arranged to be designed by a hardwired logic to save the system area. New re-scaling scheme which uses the fact that the difference of the maximum and minimum of the path metric values is bounded is proposed. The proposed re-scaling scheme optimizes the wordlength of path metric memory and greatly reduces the computational load for re-scaling by controlling MSB of path metric memory. Another saving of computation is done by proposed algorithm for branch metric calculation, which makes use of pre-calculated metric values. The designed Viterbi decoder was synthesized using SAMSUNG 0.35$\mu$ standard cell library and occupied small area and showed lower power consumption.

  • The Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering (KRISO), the ocean engineering branch of KORDI, has designed and manufactured a model of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to test underwater docking. This paper introduces the AUV model, ASUM, equipped with a visual servo control system to dock into an underwater station with a camera and motion sensors. To make a visual servoing AUV, this paper implemented the visual servo control system designed with an augmented state equation, which was composed of the optical flow model of a camera and the equation of the AUV's motion. The system design and the hardware configuration of ASUM are presented in this paper. A small long baseline acoustic positioning system was developed to monitor and record the AUV's position for the experiment in the Ocean Engineering Basin of KRISO, KORDI. ASUM recognizes the target position by processing the captured image for the lights, which are installed around the end of the cone-type entrance of the duct. Unfortunately, experiments are not yet conducted when we write this article. The authors will present the results for the docking test of the AUV in near future.

  • This paper deals with how to improve the performance of Python language with various libraries when developing a model using big data. The Python language uses the Pandas library for processing spreadsheet-format data such as Excel. In processing data, Python operates on an in-memory basis. There is no performance issue when processing small scale of data. However, performance issues occur when processing large scale of data. Therefore, this paper introduces a method for distributed processing of execution tasks in a single cluster and multiple clusters by using a Dask library that can be used with Pandas when processing data. The experiment compares the speed of processing a simple exponential model using only Pandas on the same specification hardware and the speed of processing using a dask together. This paper presents a method to develop a model by distributing a large scale of data by CPU cores in terms of performance while maintaining that python's advantage of using various libraries is easy.

  • WSN is composed of a lot of small sensors with the limited hardware resources. In WSN, at the initial stage, sensor nodes are randomly deployed over the region of interest, and self-configure the clustered networks by grouping a bunch of sensor nodes and selecting a cluster header among them. In this paper, we propose a self-configuration routing protocol for WSN, which consists of step-wise ripple routing algorithm for initial deployment, effective joining of sensor nodes. RRA is search node in RF-coverage of each node, which result in fast network connection, reducing overall power consumption, and extending the lifetime of network.

  • Multiprocessor architecture becomes increasingly common on real-time systems as computer hardware technology rapidly progresses and the workload of real-time systems increases. However, efficient solutions for many real-time multiprocessor scheduling problems are not known. Hence many researchers apply uniprocessor scheduling algorithms to multiprocessor scheduling or devise new algorithms based on these algorithms. Such algorithms are EDF (Earliest Deadline First), LLF (Least Laxity First), EDF-US[m/(2m-1)], and EDZL (Earliest Deadline Zero Laxity), and comparative studies on them are necessary. In this paper, we show the dominance relation of these algorithms with respect to schedulability, and we prove EDZL strictly dominates EDF. The simulation results show that EDZL has high processor utilization and it causes a small number of preemptions.

  • NUMA systems have remote access caches(RAC) in each local node to reduce the overhead for repeated remote memory accesses. By this RAC, memory latency and network traffic can be reduced and the performance of the multiprocessor system can be improved. Until now, several cache replacement policies have been proposed in recent years, and there also is cache replacement policy for multiprocessor systems. In this paper, we propose a cache replacement policy which is based on cache line coherence information. In this policy, the cache line that does not have an ownership is replaced first with respect to cache line that has an ownership. Like this way, the overhead to transfer ownership is avoided and the memory latency can be decreased. We also propose “Keeping-Ownership replacement policy with MRU (KOM)” and “Keeping-Ownership replacement policy with Reference Bit(KORB)” to reduce the frequent replacement penalty of the ownership-lacking cache line. We compare and analyze these with LRU and Pseudo LRU(PLRU). The simulation shows that KOM outperforms the PLRU by 25%, and KORB outperforms the PLRU by 13%. Although the hardware cost of KOM is very small, the performance of KOM is nearly equal to that of the LRU.
