This paper explains the hardware structure of SURF(Speeded Up Robust Feature) based feature point extractor and its FPGA verification result. SURF algorithm produces novel scale- and rotation-invariant feature point and descriptor which can be used for object recognition, creation of panorama image, 3D Image restoration. But the feature point extraction processing takes approximately 7,200msec for VGA-resolution in embedded environment using ARM11(667Mhz) processor and 128Mbytes DDR memory, hence its real-time operation is not guaranteed. We analyzed integral image memory access pattern which is a key component of SURF algorithm to reduce memory access and memory usage to operate in c real-time. We assure feature extraction that using a Vertex-5 FPGA gives 60frame/sec of VGA image at 100Mhz.

Remediation technology becomes an issue in environmental engineering. The vibro-recovery technique is one of popular means to remove pollutants from contaminated soils and groundwater. Using Ultrasonic excitation in soil-fluid medium, it was found that removal efficiency in a mechanical effects was significant. In this paper, therefore, laboratory experiments were conducted on clayey sand soil columns using a probe-type ultrasonic processor. Ultrasonic treatment with simultaneous pumping enhances dislodgement of clay particles, and ultrasonic excitation reduced the proportions of finer particles and thus result in increased hydraulic conductivity significantly. Also, the results provided the changes in grain size distribution curve of the soil due to ultrasonic excitation. The results indicated that the maximum size of particles mobilized by Ultrasonic is about 0.004mm and particles in the size range from 0.04mm to 1.0mm were subjected to fracturing. The economic feasibility of Ultrasonic implementation is considered in power requirement of the generator and maintenance of the horn. At a specified amplitude of vibrations, the power requirement of the generator depends on overburden pressure of the horn, temperature and viscosity of fluid in the soil medium. For comparisons, the requirement of a one inch and two inch diameter horn sonicators are compared with the power required for pumping water from different depths.

Information is very important for modern consumers, and the factors that have a great influence on product purchasing. Accordingly, elucidating factors affecting the retrieval process of information is an important. This study identifies factors that affect tourism information retrieval activities. First, it was carried out the meta analysis of tourism information, repurchase intention, attitude toward technology, and information utilization. Through the meta analysis, hypothesis model about each factor of information retrieval and repurchase of tourism products was suggested. The hypothesis model was verified by a survey of Korean and Japanese tourists. As a result, it is confirmed the relationship between the above factors. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of a tourists' information usage model in the future.

Temperature-dependent development model is an essential component for forecasting models of insect pests as well as for insect population models. This study reviewed the nonlinear models which explain the relationship between temperature and development rate of insects. In the present study, the types of models were classified largely into empirical and biophysical model, and the groups were subdivided into subgroups according to the similarity of mathematical equations or the connection with original idea. Empirical models that apply analytical functions describing the suitable shape of development curve were subdivided into multiple subgroups as Stinner-based types, Logan-based types, performance models and Beta distribution types. Biophysical models based on enzyme kinetic reaction were grouped as monophyletic group leading to Eyring-model, SM-model, SS-mode, and SSI-model. Finally, we described the historical development and characteristics of non-linear development models and discussed the availability of models.

In the virtualized server systems, a scheduler in a hypervisor is responsible to assign physical resources for virtual machines. However, the traditional scheduler is hard to provide optimized resource allocation considering the amount of I/O requests. Especially, the drawback hinders performance of software load balancer which runs on virtual machines to distribute I/O requests from the clients. In this paper, we propose a new architecture to improve the performance of software load balancer using multiprocess. Our architecture aims to improve hardware resource utilization and overall performance of the server systems which utilize virtualization technology. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed architecture for the various cases.

There has been a revolutionary growth and advancement in the area of online game, though the history of online games is shorter than that of the other genre. Among the elements consisting of a game, the character customizing system has advanced poorly when compared with the other elements of a game system. The poor computer graphics technology hindered the emergence of a good quality of a character customizing system. However the need of users for the rich facial expressions together with the rapid advancement of the computer graphic technology have driven the customizing system to provide a high degree of freedom to the extent that items for the face assembly could generate new profits. This paper analyzed the Aion Customizing System based on the art of physiognomy where the facial features of people are studied and analyzed, in order to make various personalized characters to the extent of increased freedom. According to our design, the more sophisticated and complex and subtle character customization system can be devised following the proposed design.
