In spite of the various techniques on the testing of embedded software, operation failures of embedded systems such as robot or satellite applications, are occurred frequently. The critical reason of these failures is due to the fact that software is embedded into a target system with inherent faults. Therefore, in order to prevent the failure owing to such faults, it needs a technique to test the embedded software which operates in real environment. In this paper, we propose a testing technique, aspect-based On-the-Fly testing that is to test the functionality and performance at real operation time. Our proposed technique gives some benefits of real test of unexpected input conditions, prevention of software malfunction, and reusability of aspect components for the testing.

This paper introduce a quiz game contents based on gesture interface. We analyzed the off-line quiz games, extracted its presiding components, and digitalized them so that the proposed game contents is able to substitute for the off-line quiz games. We used the Kinect camera to obtain the depth images and performed the preprocessing including vertical human segmentation, head detection and tracking and hand detection, and gesture recognition for hand-up, hand vertical movement, fist shape, pass and fist-and-attraction. Especially, we defined the interface gestures designed as a metaphor for natural gestures in real world so that users are able to feel abstract concept of movement, selection and confirmation tangibly. Compared to our previous work, we added the card compensation process for completeness, improved the vertical hand movement and the fist shape recognition methods for the example selection and presented an organized test to measure the recognition performance. The implemented quiz application program was tested in real time and showed very satisfactory gesture recognition results.

The electro-optical payload of a low-earth orbit satellite is thermally decoupled with the bus, which supports a payload for a mission operation. The payload has a cooling unit of FPA(Focal Plane Assembly) which has a thermal behavior increasing its temperature instantly during an operation in order to dissipate a waste heat into the space. The FPA cooling unit should include a radiator and heatpipes with a sufficient performance in worst hot condition, and a heater design to maintain its temperature above a minimum allowable temperature in the worst cold condition. In this paper, we analyzed the thermal requirements and the heater design constraints from the thermal analysis results for the current thermal design of the FPA cooling unit and the design elements of the better heater design were found.

Line heating is a method widely used in forming ship hull surface. From the viewpoint of mechanics it is large deformation thermal elasto-plastic problem of arbitrary shaped plate. Many researches have been carried out to resolve this problem. Especially, Jang et al.[1] proposed a simplified thermal elasto-plastic analysis method to predict effectively the deformation of plate due to line heating. In this paper, we improved the method of Jang et al.[1] by considering tension yielding in temperature decreasing stage and verified with experimental results. FEA program using MITC4 degenerated shell element was made to deal with elastic large deformation problem. The newly proposed method can be used in the simulation and control of forming hull surface for higher productivity with simplicity and efficiency.

본 연구는 미래 물 관리를 위한 기후변화 대응방안 도출 연구의 사전연구로서 금강유역의 과거 기상 수문요소의 특성변화 분석을 수행하였다. 기상자료로 금강유역 기상관측소 8개소의 37개년(1973~2009)의 기온, 강수량, 상대습도 자료를 수집하였다. 하천수위자료는 수위자료와 수위-유량관계곡선의 신뢰성 문제, 이후 수행될 장기유출분석을 고려하여 최종적으로 공주, 규암 수위관측소의 36개년(1973~2008)의 자료를 이용하였고, 지하수위자료는 강우관측소와 근접하게 위치해 있으면서 과거 자료를 최대한 많이 보유하고 있는 6개 관측소의 10개년(1999~2008)의 자료를 이용하였다. 수집된 자료의 평균, 표준편차, 왜곡도, 변동계수를 산출하여 연 계절별로 수문기상인자의 경년변화를 파악한 결과 기상인자 중 강수량의 변동성이 가장 크게 나타나 경년별 변화가 큰 것으로 분석되었고 하천수위보다는 지하수위가 경년별 변동이 적은 것으로 분석되었다. 수문학적 지속성 분석을 위해 Run 검정, Turning Point 검정, Anderson Exact검정을 이용하여 시계열자료에 주기성이 있는지 분석한 결과 기온과 강수는 무작위성, 상대습도, 하천수위는 지속성을 가지는 인자로 분석되었고 지하수위는 관측소별, 기간별로 무작위성과 지속성이 혼재되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 경향성 분석을 위해 단순 선형 회귀분석과 Mann-Kendall 검정을 이용하였다. 그 결과 기온은 연 계절 모두 증가경향이 나타났고, 강수량은 여름에만 증가경향이 나타났으며, 상대습도는 뚜렷한 감소경향을 보였다. 또한 하천수위는 감소경향이 나타났으며 지하수위는 유의수준 범위에서 경향성은 보이지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과는 기후변화로 인해 발생될 수 있는 수자원의 영향을 평가하고 미래 물 관리 적응기술 개발 및 계획 수립을 위한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

MANET has many security vulnerabilities because it consists of only mobile nodes using wireless. In particular, it is a very important factor determining network performance that excludes the participation of malicious nodes through accurate reliability measurements and authentication of nodes participating in the network. In this paper, we proposed a technique applied with blockchain technology in order to prevent forgery of authentication information for nodes participating in the network. And, an area-based hierarchical structure was applied to increase the efficiency of authentication for nodes and apply the optimal technique of block generation and exchange protocol. In addition, four data payloads were added to the block header in order to add authentication information for nodes in block. To improve the reliability by applying the blockchain technique to the hop-by-hop data transfer method between mobile nodes, blockchain exchange protocol through transaction creation, block packaging and verification processes were implemented. We performed the comparative experiment with the existing methods to evaluate the performance of the proposed method and confirmed the excellent performance by the experiment results.

Energy Storage System(ESS) is a system that maximizes energy efficiency by selectively storing and using the generated power when needed. Therefore, energy must be able to be charged or supplied at any time, and non-operating time should be minimized even in the case of failure or maintenance. However, current large-capacity energy storage systems must be shut down during maintenance due to structural problems. In this paper, we propose a PCS for 1MW ESS by configuring modular for large capacity ESS in parallel and verified of the hot swap technology that can replace, change, and repair the components that make up the system while keeping the system operating.
