Product Line Engineering(PLE) is a software reuse paradigm that core assets are defined using common features in a domain and are instantiated in various applications. To apply the core asset effectively, variants which satisfy application requirements are extracted and the core asset should be also instantiated based on the variants. For the work, variability on architecture and components should be extracted exactly and an instantiation process and guidelines should be defined based on this variability In this paper, we define variability types depending on core assets elements and describe artifact templates related to tile variability. We also propose a systematic process which uses defined core assets including variability and verify practicability of the proposed process and variability expression through doing ease study. If utilizing with the proposed process in PLE, it can be feasible to model concrete core asset and variability and to utilize practical application engineering.

In general, the flexible forming die that has been used in the flexible forming process has the identical punch size; hence, its flexibility is relatively low because the range of allowable curvature radii is limited due to the uniform punch tip radius. Hence, a conceptual design of a sectional flexible die is presented for enhancing the flexibility of the forming process. Two punches of different sizes are used to configure the arbitrary forming surface. For a forming region with a relatively large curvature radius, a large punch array block is used; on the other hand, for the forming regions with small curvature radii, a small punch block is used. The cross-sectional profiles are compared with the target shape for evaluating the effectiveness of the process. Consequently, it is confirmed that the sectional flexible die can be used along with a combination of punch blocks of different sizes for manufacturing objective surfaces of complex shapes.

In this work, a high tunable capacitor using a multi-layer dielectric of BZN/BST/BZN is designed and characterized for reconfigurable RF applications. By utilizing a high tunable BST ferroelectric and a low-loss BZN paraelectric thin film, a multi-layer dielectric of BZN/BST/BZN obtained a tunability of 47 % and $tan{\delta}$ of 0.005. The fabricated tunable capacitor on a quartz wafer using this multi-layer dielectric achieved a Q-factor of 10 and tunability of 60 % at 800 MHz and 15 V. Its size is $327{\times}642{\mu}m2$.

In this paper, a dynamic variable window-based topographical classification method is proposed which has the changeable classification units depending on topographical properties. In the proposed scheme, to im prove the classification efficiency, the unit of topographical classification can be changeable dynamically according to the topographical properties and repeated patterns. Also, in this paper, the classification efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are analyzed in order to find an optimal maximum decision window-size through the experiment. According to the experiment results, the proposed dynamic variable window-based topographical classification method maintains similar accuracy but remarkably reduce computing time than that of a fixed window-size based one, respectively.

In this paper, we present a variable dimension vector quantization for spectral magnitudes. Espectially, spectral magnitudes of the Harmonic coder, need variable dimension quantizer because those are not fixed dimension. So, this paper present efficient quantization methods. These methods use variable Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT) for spectral magnitude parameters and NSTVQ which is combined odd/even, split and multi-stage structure, proposed quantization methods use Spectral Distortion(SD) for performance measure. Consequently, Multi-Stage Nonsquare Transform Vector Quantization(MSNSTVQ) is the best in performance measure.

볼륨 데이터에 대한 압축 기법의 필요성은 데이터 용량의 증가와 네트워크 사용량의 증가와 함께 더불어 증가해 왔다. 현재에는 다양한 압축 기법이 개발돼 있으며, 사용자는 데이터 유형이나 응용 분야에 맞춰 압축 기법을 선택, 적용할 수 있다. 그러나 최근에는 응용 과학자들로부터 생성되는 데이터의 용량이 기하급수적으로 증가했는데, 이렇게 응용과학 분야에서 생성되는 데이터는 대부분 3차원 볼륨 데이터다. 2차원 이미지나 3차원 동영상 데이터의 경우에는 다양한 표준 압축 방식을 사용할 수 있지만 3차원 볼륨 데이터에 적용할 수 있는 방법은 한정돼 있으며, 특히 시간가변(time-varying) 볼륨 데이터에 대한 압축 표준은 거의 존재하지 않는다고 볼 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 시간가변 볼륨 데이터에 대한 압축 방식을 제안한다. 이 방식은 가시화를 목적으로 하는 시간가변 볼륨 데이터의 인코딩을 목적으로 하며, MPEG의 I-프레임과 P-프레임 개념을 사용해서 압축률을 높인다. 본 방식은 시간가변 부동 소수점 데이터(single precision floating-point data)로 구성된 시간가변 볼륨 데이터를 대상으로 하는데, 한 블록 단위의 무작위 복원을 지원하며 Daubechies 웨이블릿 필터와 프레임간의 상관 관계를 사용, 대형 시간가변 볼륨 데이터를 이미지 화질을 보존한다.

Reversible lanes in urban intersections is used to efficiently control vehicles, reduce traffic congestion and increase the capacity of a roadway. But by far traffic control systems in urban intersections are simple and manually operated by police officers. In this study, we present a hybrid algorithm that intelligently resolve the moving direction of reversible lanes to efficiently manage the flow of traffic at intersection. The proposed algorithm consists of three stages:(i) fuzzy inference method to get the efficiency of moving direction, (ii) a provisional decision whether to change the reversible lane to different direction, (iii) a final evaluation criterion for changing the directions of the reversible lanes. The fuzzy inference results of efficiency are shown by using matlab application.

A design and implementation method for the UHF-band(800MHz) variable attenuator using the 3dB coupler is proposed. The 90 degree, 3-dB Coupler is used for the variable attenuator. The principal theory for the 3-dB coupler is introduced. The 3-dB Coupler is designed by the mathematical analysis and a computer simulation tool. A PIN diode is used for the variable resistor at UHF-band. The variable attenuator using the 3-dB coupler and the PIN diode is designed and implemented. The measured results for the variable attenuator by a network analyzer show that the insertion loss is below -l0dB, and the continuous variable attenuation range is about 10dB.

In recent years, variable stiffness actuation has attracted much attention because interaction between a robot and the environment is increasingly required for various robot tasks. Several variable stiffness actuators (VSAs) have been developed; however, they find limited applications owing to their size and weight. For realizing their widespread use, we developed a compact and lightweight mini-VSA. The mini-VSA consists of a control module based on an adjustable moment arm mechanism and a drive module with two motors. By controlling the relative motion of cams in the control module, the position and stiffness can be simultaneously controlled. Experimental results are presented to show its ability to change stiffness.

This paper suggests the variable structure controller with a new variable boundary layer for the accurate tracking control of the variable structure systems. Up to now, variable structure controller (VSC) applying the variable boundary layer did not remove chattering from an arbitrary initial state of the system trajectory because VSC has the limited initial state according to the fixed sliding surface. But, by using the linear time-varying sliding surfaces, the scheme has the robustness against chattering from all states. The suggested method can be applied to the second-order nonlinear systems with parameter uncertainty and extraneous disturbances, and has better tracking performance than the conventional method. To demonstrate the advantages of the proposed algorithm, it is applied to a two-link manipulator.
