In a warehouse, because there exist frequent changes of stock status and the quality of some contents are influenced by the environment such as temperature, fast and accurate management of the warehouse's environment is very important for Warehouse Management Systems (WMS). However, due to the absence of a unified standard for the communication protocol between RFID nodes, the connection between RFID nodes can be broken in case of movement of a RFID reader to a region with a different protocol. Moreover, centralized MAC schemes for RFID communications in previous studies have severe problems. For an example, if a cluster header disappears from the cluster due to the cluster header's movement or bad channel conditions, the RFID member nodes of the cluster waste lots of time and energy to re-elect a new cluster header. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a WiMedia Distributed MAC (D-MAC) scheme for RFID communications and its cooperative relay transmission scheme for WMS applications Simulation results show performance improvement at the RFID node by using the proposed cooperative relay transmission scheme.

In ATM networks CBR data traffic is sent in constant bit rate, and VBR data traffic in variable bit rate. Therefore unused bandwidth at network capacity may exist. To avoid waste of network resourcesm, ABR traffic utilizes the unused bandwidth to the utmost after CBR and VBR data traffic being first served. In this paper, a transfer rate-based congestion control algorithm is proposed for efficient ABR service in ATM networks. In the proposed algorithm the ATM switch first calculates bandwidth according to variable cell transfer rate in an ABR source. records this value in ER field in a RM cell, and then transmits a RM Cell to an ABR source. In this way the proposed algorithm dynamically allocates bandwidth to each ABR source, and the switch also can rapidly adapt to a change of a transfer rate of an source. The performance simulation of the proposed algorithm has batter performance in terms of source condition and link utilization.

The purpose of this study is to review and criticize the articles that analyzed Frozen by using the semiotic method of Greimas. The study also aims to apply the semiotic method of Greimas correctly to find the deep structure of the narrative of Frozen. The results of the narrative analysis based on the actantial model and the semiotic square show that Frozen is not Elsa's heroic narrative but Anna's one. Because Elsa and Anna are the opposing elements in this narrative, the success of Anna is the failure of Elsa. Frozen does not convey the subversive message about the gender roles by representing an independent and active woman who resists the patriarchal discourse. Instead, Frozen reproduces the conformist ideology by saying that love is the most valuable thing and that everyone should accept the role given to him/her by the community.

In the digital media era, coded and non-coded communication are used to convey the message. As the computer interface has been adopted human communication methods, non-coded communication has bee used in the computer interface as well. The changes of message structure in the computer interface have an effect on shifting the way of user's message acceptance from passive to active. The recently developed computer user interfaces are for user to experience diverse visual effect The communication conveyed with this visual effects could be vague but user can conceive strong impact. This experience is understood not only through the visual experience from a monitor screen but also with a sense of tactile. The meaning of sensual and spectacle motion image could be ambiguous. However in the experience of using an interface, it plentifully expands the human sense by giving a visual experience on a whim. The sensually extemporaneous and splendid visual effect that has vague meaning has been very common happening in digital media environment.

In general, noise measurement results show larger random ripple than those of the network analyzer. The reason for the lager random ripple of the noise measurements is considered that the general noise measurements uses absolute measured noise powers, while the network analyzer measures using a ratio of the measured powers. In this paper, a novel measurement method of noise correlation matrix using relative noise ratios is proposed. Proposed method measures the five noise powers of DUT for the five input impedance variations and the four relative noise ratios are formed using the five measured noise powers. The four noise ratios are used to compute the noise correlation matrix and noise parameters. The resulting noise parameters for a 0.5 dB attenuator show good agreements with theoretical values calculated by S-parameters. Also, the noise parameters of an active DUT with a noise figure of less than 1 dB are measured and the measured results show a small random ripple as expected and their values are physically acceptable. In conclusion, the proposed method can be applied to the noise parameter measurements for DUT with a noise figure below 1 dB.

이 연구의 목적은 소비자의 구매의도를 자극하고, 판매를 촉진시켜주는 구매시점광고(POP Ad: Point Of Purchase Advertising)의 소매판매 유통점 활용영역에서 정보전달형태 변화에 따른 광고효과 차이가 있는지를 연구하는데 있다. 연구의 배경과 방법은 통상의 구매시점광고가 정보전달 방법에 있어서 소비자 구매활동 장소 내 외에서 단순 비치, 설치된 상태로서 기능과 역할을 수행하고 있음을 착안, 광고소구형태를 시각, 청각 그리고 인적판매원이 관여된 혼합(시각, 청각)형으로 분류하여 정보를 전달 한 후 소비자의 태도 및 매출 비교를 위해 실증적 실험을 했다. 본 연구의 핵심 가설은 '인적판매원이 개입된 혼합형(시각, 청각) 구매시점광고가 소비자 태도(신뢰도/호감도/구매의도) 및 매출( + / -)영향도가 더욱 높게 나타날 것이다'이다. 이는 소비자에게 시각, 청각이 동시에 전달되는 혼합소구유형은 정보전달력이 우수하고, 광고 효과성이 높을 것이다를 검증하기 위한 것이다. 본격 연구 전에 실시한 1차 사전적 실증 실험결과 소비자가 지각하는 관점에 따라 시각형(광고의 정보내용을 인쇄물로 제공), 청각형(광고의 정보내용을 소리전달형태로 제공), 시각, 청각 혼합형(인적판매원이 시각형 정보를 활용 광고내용을 직접 전달)분류한 3가지 유형간 정보전달 효과의 차이는 없는 것으로 나왔다. 하지만, 본 연구는 생계형 소매유통 창업현장에서 활동하고 있는 소상공인들이 구매시점광고를 광고의 활용측면에서 능동형 마케팅 활동 도구로 사용할 수 있는지에 대한 실증적 사례 분석을 했다는 것에 의의를 두고자 한다. 업종별 차이는 있지만 대부분의 소상공인들의 마케팅 환경은 열악하다. 마케팅 전담 인력의 부재, 마케팅 지식의 부족, 전방위적 마케팅 전개 시간의 한계 등으로 인해 체계적으로 마케팅활동을 펼 칠 수 없는게 현실이다. 이에 현장 활용성이 높은 효율적이고 효과적인 구매시점광고의 광고정보전달 연구 및 개발이 요구된다고 보며, 이에 관한 지속적인 후행적 연구와 노력이 필요하다고 사료된다.

This paper presents an approach to define an optimal piezoactuator length to actively control structural vibration. The optimal ratio of the piezoactuator length against beam length when a pair of piezoceramic actuator and accelerometer is used to suppress unwanted vibration with direct velocity feedback (DVFB) control strategy is not clearly defined so far. It is well known that direct velocity feedback (DVFB) control can be very useful when a pair of sensor and actuator is collocated on structures with a high gain and excellent stability. It is considered that three different collocated pairs of piezoelectric actuators (20, 50 and 100 mm) and accelerometers installed on three identical clamped-clamped beams (300 * 20 * 1 mm). The response of each sensor-actuator pair requires strictly positive real (SPR) property to apply a high feedback gain. However the length of the piezoactuator affects SPR property of the sensor-actuator response. Intensive simulation and experiment shows the effect of the actuator length variation is strongly related with the frequency range of SPR property. A shorter actuator gave a wider SPR frequency range as a longer one had a narrower range. The shorter actuator showed limited control performance in spite of a higher gain was applied because the actuation force was relatively small. Thus an optimal length ratio (actuator length/beam length) was suggested to obtain relevant performance with good stability with DVFB strategy. The result of this investigation could give important information in the design of active control system to suppress unwanted vibration of smart structures with piezoelectric actuators and accelerometers.

The advertisement market is an industry that is heavily influenced by media changes. As the digital broadcasting has settled, TV, a typical advertisement medium, has evolved from a passive content consuming medium into a platform for operating various data services as well as broadcasting programs. These changes mean that viewers are able to actively consume TV contents including advertisement, so the broadcasting industry needs to consider about the growth strategies that link the advertisement market with data services. This study designed a digital broadcasting data service that provides supplementary information of ID advertisement with short exposure time (less than 10 seconds) and insufficient space (less than 1/4 of TV screen). Specifically, we designed the user scenario and user interface of the data service, defined representative types of ID advertisement and the supplementary information for each type, developed a method, based on the international digital broadcasting standard DVB, for providing the supplementary information to the data service.

Non-intrusive methods based on active remote IR illumination for eye tracking is important for many applications of vision-based man-machine interaction. One problem that has plagued those methods is their sensitivity to lighting condition change. This tends to significantly limit their scope of application. In this paper, we present a new real-time eye detection and tracking methodology that works under variable and realistic lighting conditions. eased on combining the bright-pupil effect resulted from IR light and the conventional appearance-based object recognition technique, our method can robustly track eyes when the pupils are not very bright due to significant external illumination interferences. The appearance model is incorporated in both eyes detection and tracking via the use of support vector machine and the mean shift tracking. Additional improvement is achieved from modifying the image acquisition apparatus including the illuminator and the camera.
