In this paper, we propose an efficient policing mechanism for Markov model-based traffic descriptors of VBR MPEG video traffic. A VBR video sequence is described by a set of traffic descriptors using a scene-basedMarkov model to the network for the effective resource allocation and accurate QoS prediction. The networkmonitors the input traffic from the source using a proposed new policing method. for policing the steady statetransition probability of scene states, we define two representative monitoring parameters (mean holding andrecurrence time) for each state. For frame level cell rate policing of each scene state, accumulated average cellrates for the frame types are compared with the model parameters. We propose an exponential bounding functionto accommodate dynanic behaviors during the transient period. Our simulation results show that the proposedpolicing mechanism for Markovian traffic descriptors monitors the sophisticated traffic such as MPEG videoeffectively and well protects network resources from the nalicious or misbehaved traffic.

The accumulated displacements and fatigues of rock are increased by the stress-hysteresis, induced from repeated frost-thawing. Also the shear strength is decreased by them continuously. The stress-hysteresis is affected by the atmospheric temperature changes, whose behavior is visco-elasticity, usually. Therefore, to do ideal body analysis, Kelvin model could be used to analyze the frost-thawing behavior in winter. In general, rock slope failure occurs by the deterioration of rocks, which is caused by the repetition of freezing-thawing process. In order to keep the safety of such rock mass structures the deterioration process of rock needs to be described quantitatively using some meaningful parameters. In this work, the deterioration process in freezing-thawing cycle of tuff, which is a famous soft porous rock, is investigated through laboratory tests and successfully described as a differential equation for the change of porosity. And then, the deterioration of the mechanical properties of rock, such as Young's modulus and uniaxial compressive strength, are quantitatively described as a function of the porosity.

During recent 5 years, it was recorded that 20% of total accident frequency and 30% of total number of death have been occurred due to drowsy driving. Drowsy driving accident is result from the loss of driving ability due to driver's accumulated fatigue. Continuous driving time can be measured as a surrogate variable to quantify the level of fatigue. The main purpose of this research is to investigate statistical correlation between the proportion of continuous driving vehicle (more than 2 hours) and the number of drowsy accidents. To carry this out, continuous driving time was measured using GPS route-guidance trajectory data. Also, accident frequency, traffic volume and segment length were collected to estimate safety performance function (SPF) for Jungbunearuk expressway in Korea. Through various types of estimated SPFs, statistical correlation was analyzed based on estimated statistical indices. This research can provide theoretical background for enforcement to regulate commercial vehicle driver's continuous driving time. In addition, throughout the trajectory data expansion, it is expected that strategy for anti-drowsy driving facilities installation can be established based on the suggested methodology.

The scaling properties on the length distribution of microcrack populations from Tertiary crystalline tuff are investigated. From the distribution charts showing length range with 15 directional angles and five groups(I~V), a systematic variation appears in the mean length with microcrack orientation. The distribution charts are distinguished by the bilaterally symmetrical pattern to nearly N-S direction. The whole domain of the length-cumulative frequency diagram for microcrack populations can be divided into three sections in terms of phases of the distribution of related curves. Especially, the linear middle section of each diagram of five groups represents a power-law distribution. The frequency ratio of linear middle sections of five groups ranges from 46.6% to 67.8%. Meanwhile, the slope of linear middle section of each group shows the order: group V($N60{\sim}90^{\circ}E$, -2.02) > group IV($N20{\sim}60^{\circ}E$, -1.55) > group I($N60{\sim}90^{\circ}W$, -1.48), group II($N10{\sim}60^{\circ}W$, -1.48) > group III($N10^{\circ}W{\sim}N20^{\circ}E$, -1.06). Five sub-populations(five groups) that closely follow the power-law length distribution show a wide range in exponents( -1.06 - -2.02). These differences in exponent among live groups emphasizes the importance of orientation effect. In addition, breaks in slope in the lower parts of the related curves represent the abrupt development of longer lengths, which is reflected in the decrease in the power-law exponent. Especially, such a distribution pattern can be seen from the diagram with $N10{\sim}20^{\circ}E,\;N10{\sim}20^{\circ}W$ and $N60{\sim}70^{\circ}W$ directional angles. These three directional angles correspond with main directions of faults developed around the study area. The distribution chart showing the individual characteristics of the length-cumulative frequency diagrams for 15 directional angles were made. By arraying above diagrams according to the categories of three groups(A, B and C), the differences in length-frequency distributions among these groups can be easily derived. The distribution chart illustrates the importance of analysing microcrack sets separately. From the related chart, the occurrence frequency of shorter microcracks shows the order: group A > group B > group C. These three types of distribution patterns could reveal important information on the processes occurred during microcrack growth.

As a result of experimenting the temperature characteristics of origination voltage in Al/$AL_1,O_3/PI (nL)/Au, the sample of polyimide LB film and AI/$AL_1,O_3/Cls TCNQ(lOL)/Al, the difference of work function is found between upper and lower electrodes. If polyimide LB film is accumulated with Z type or becomes imide, the polarization of the film is not made. And AI/$AL_2,O_3/C-{15}TCNQ( IOL)/ AI which is the CI5 TCNQ LB film sample doesn't show the difference of work function because it has the same upper and lower electrode and the polarization is found on the film. As a result of experiment with MIM element of LB ultra thin film, Direct current more than hun¬dreds of m V is generated and it can be used for industrial power resources in the area of electricity, electronics and information communication.

Cause-specific hazard model (Prentice et al., 1978) and subdistribution hazard model (Fine and Gray, 1999) are mostly used for the right censored survival data with competing risks. Some other models for survival data with competing risks have been subsequently introduced; however, those models have not been popularly used because the models cannot provide reliable statistical estimation methods or those are overly difficult to compute. We introduce simple and reliable competing risk regression models which have been recently proposed as well as compare their methodologies. We show how to use SAS and R for the data with competing risks. In addition, we analyze survival data with two competing risks using five different models.

본 논문에서는 효율적인 다시점 비디오 부호화를 위해 히스토그램(histogram)을 이용한 다시점 비디오의 휘도(luminance)와 색차(chrominance)성분 보상 기법을 제안한다. 다시점 비디오는 카메라의 기하학적인 위치 차이와 여러 대의 카메라가 동일한 특성을 가지도록 완벽히 조정되지 못함으로 인해 동일한 시간대에 촬영된 인접한 시점 영상 간에 휘도와 색상의 차이가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 특성은 인접한 카메라로부터 획득된 영상을 참조하여 시점간 움직임 예측 시에 오정합의 원인이 되어 부호화 효율을 떨어뜨리게 된다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 다시점 비디오 부호화를 위해 시점간의 히스토그램을 비교하여 정합하는 휘도 및 색차 보상 기법을 수행한다. 일정한 시간 대역(time interval)에서 다시점 비디오의 평균 누적 히스토그램을 이용하여 참조 영상을 생성하고 각 시점별로 정합 함수를 통해 다시점 영상 간의 휘도와 색상의 불일치성을 보상한다. 제안하는 조명 보상 기법을 통하여 다시점 비디오 부호화 효율을 높일 수 있었다.

Data points obtained by conducting repetitive experiments under identical environmental conditions are, theoretically, required to correspond. However, experimental data often display variations due to generated errors or noise resulting from various factors and inherent uncertainties. In this study, an algorithm aiming to determine valid bounds of input variables, representing uncertainties, was developed using probabilistic and statistical methods. Furthermore, a reliability assessment was performed to verify and validate applications of this algorithm using bolt-fastening friction coefficient data in a sample application.

In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant QoS routing scheme based on interference awareness for providing both high throughput and minimum end-to-end delay for wireless sensor networks. With the proposed algorithm, it is feasible to find out the optimal transmission path between sensor nodes to the sink node by using cumulative path metric where real-time delivery, high energy efficiency and less interference are considered as in path selection. Finally, simulation results show that network throughput and delay can be improved by using the proposed routing scheme.

The feedback interference channels are those made through the multipaths that are built by moving and stationary objects around transmit and receive antennas mounted at the same point. This paper describes the method to measure the feedback interference channels in the rural regions and sides of highways and the analysis on channel characteristic parameters. Using the measured samples, we estimated scattering functions, delay power spectra, and Doppler power spectra, and we analyzed the channels using eight parameters including coherence bandwidth, coherence time, maximum excess delay, average excess delay, rms delay spread, Doppler shift, Doppler spread, and spread factor, and delay and Doppler cumulative distributions. Even though many observations are made, note that the feedback signals of high Doppler frequencies and large energy are observed in the sides of highways due to high speed vehicles while low Doppler frequencies occurred in the rural region due to rare traffic.
