The use of shield TBM is gradually increasing due to the urbanization of social infrastructures. Reliable estimation of advance rate is very important for accurate construction period and cost. For this purpose, it is required to develop the prediction model of advance rate that can consider the ground properties reasonably. Based on the database collected from field, statistical prediction procedure for field penetration index (FPI) was modularized in this study to calculate penetration rate of shield TBM. As output parameter, FPI was selected and various systems were included in this module such as, procedure of eliminating abnormal dataset, preprocessing of dataset and ridge regression with best subset selection. And it was finally validated by using field dataset.

To guarantee QoS (Quality of Service), routers should determine routing paths satisfying service requirements, based on link state information as well as network topology. Link status database (LSD) in routers should be efficiently managed to effectively reflect the current state of all links. However, there is a trade off between the exact reflection of the current link status and its update cost. For exactly reflecting the current link status, each router immediately notifies its neighbors that link state information is changed. This may degrade performance of the router due to the processing of link state update messages. On the other side, if the current link state information is not updated appropriately, a route setup request can be rejected because of the discrepancy between the current link state information and previously updated link state information in LSD. In this paper, we propose a traffic variation based link state update algorithm for adaptively controlling the generation of link state update messages and compare its performance with those of four existing algorithms by intensive simulations.

In this paper, the IC(Integrated Circuit) for multi-channel synchronous communication was designed by using FPGA and VHDL language. The existing chips for synchronous communication that has been used commercially are composed for one to two channels. Therefore, when communication system with three channels or more is made, the cost becomes high and it becomes complicated for communication system to be realized and also has very little buffer, load that is placed into Microprocessor increases heavily in case of high speed communication or transmission of high-capacity data. The designed IC was improved the function and performance of communication system and reduced costs by designing 8 synchronous communication channels with only one IC, and it has the size of transmitter/receiver buffer with 1024 bytes respectively and consequently high speed communication became possible. It was designed with a communication signal of a form various encoding. To detect errors of communications, the CRC-ITU-T logic and channel MUX logic was designed with hardware logics so that the malfunction can be prevented and errors can be detected more easily and input/output port regarding each communication channel can be used flexibly and consequently the reliability of system was improved. In order to show the performance of designed IC, the test was conducted successfully in Quartus simulation and experiment and the excellence was compared with the 85C3016VSC of ZILOG company that are used widely as chips for synchronous communication.

This paper presents the structure of a $\mu$Spring package, its fabrication process and an analysis of its electrical characteristics compared to that of a $\mu$BGA. It was found that both $\mu$BGA and $\mu$Spring packages provide with outstanding high speed signal transmission characteristics due to their lower inductance of package interconnection lines, smaller than half of inductance of TSOP package lines. Even the worst case substrate trace of a Rambus DRAM $\mu$Spring package yields the line inductance of 2.9nH, which provides with 25% margin compared to the Rambus DRAM specification of 4nH. The fabrication cost of $\mu$Spring package is lower than that of $\mu$BGA by 50%, passes 1000 thermal cycles, meets JEDEC Level 1 specification whereas $\mu$BGA does not, and thereby yields high reliability and strong competing power.

In this paper, we propose a new optical switching system as a infrastructure of the BcN, in which the high traffic volume will be expected due to the multimedia service, like P2P services. Because the JET protocol, the most popular protocol in OBS (Optical Burst Switching) research area, has high blocking probability for burst, it prevents commercialization in real network for its low throughput in TCP layer. To improve high blocking rate in OBS network, we segment large network into small network and perform burst scheduling to avoid burst loss. By using proposed scheme, Internet provider can reduce network deployment cost in Metro network as well as large mesh core networks

In order to improve the productivity and the yield at assembling line of finished goods' manufacturers, it is necessary that the fabricated parts are supplied to the assembly line not only just in time (JIT) but also just in sequence (JIS). Parts that are not delivered just in time can cause assembly line to be delayed, and parts that are not delivered just in sequence can cause assembly line to be halted or defected products. For JIT and JIS implementation, in the paper we propose the smart pallet based just-in-sequence parts delivery system in which RFID and USN technologies are converged. Compared with the bar-code based just-in-sequence parts delivery system, the proposed system can reduce unnecessary time for confirming parts' type and sequence and unnecessary cost by bar-code labeling and sequence data' documenting. The proposed system also can overcome the drawbacks of the RFID based just-in-sequence parts delivery system such as transmission range limit and difficulties of confirming parts' type and sequence in real time. Finally, we show the implementation of the proposed system, and its practicality.

This paper addresses the system development that can transfer data and TDM signals simultaneously by adding TDM pseudowires functions to E-PON system. E-PON technology is one of many technologies which can realize FTTH, has raised as next generation access network solution having both low-cost Ethernet technology and optical infrastructure. TDM pseudowires service is the new voice/data conversion technology which can transfer the existing TDM circuit switched voice and data over packet switching network. In this paper, this system can provide both data and TDM service without deteriorating QoS by adding TDM pseudowires service module to E-PON, and then implementing QoS control function. Therefore, the competitive system which can transfer both data and TDM signal, can be installed.

We demonstrate herein the synthesis and modification of magnetic nanoparticles and its use in the immobilization of the lipase. Magnetic $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles (MNPs) were prepared by simple co-precipitation method in aqueous medium and then subsequently modified with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 3-aminopropyl triethylenesilane (APTES). Silanization magnetic nanoparticles (SMNP) and amino magnetic nanomicrosphere (AMNP) were synthesized successfully. The morphology, structure, magnetic property and chemical composition of the synthetic MNP and its derivatives were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis, X-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). All of these three nanoparticles exhibited good crystallization performance, apparent superparamagnetism, and the saturation magnetization of MNP, SMNP, AMNP were 47.9 emu/g, 33.0 emu/g and 19.5 emu/g, respectively. The amino content was 5.66%. The AMNP was used to immobilize lipase, and the maximum adsorption capacity of the protein was 26.3 mg/g. The maximum maintained activity (88 percent) was achieved while the amount of immobilized lipase was 23.7 mg $g^{-1}$. Immobilization of enzyme on the magnetic nanoparticles can facilitate the isolation of reaction products from reaction mixture and thus lowers the cost of enzyme application.

MIMO system generally requires more than one antenna at the communication device. However, many wireless devices are limited by size, cost or hardware complexity to one antenna. To overcome such restrictions, we used a new technique, called cooperative communication. We propose a new cooperative transmission strategy system using cross-layer coding method base on H-ARQ for optimal communication. Proposed cooperative H-ARQ system that can improve the above problems and can get the better performance. In proposed cooperative system with H-ARQ method, if the received signal from source node is satisfied by the destination preferentially, the destination transmit ACK message to both relay node and source node, and then recovers the received signal. In addition, if ARQ message indicates NACK message, relay node operates selective retransmission. Based on the simulation results in aspect to BER performance and throughput, the proposed method which combined cooperative system with H-ARQ based on cross-layer coding can improve spectral efficiency reliability of system compared with that of general one by one system.
