An economic and efficient system for measuring drop sizes was developed. Pattern recognition technique was used with conventional oil-bath sampling and photographic method. The system was designed to measure and count relatively large number of drops in a very short time, and also to filter out abnormal images such as drops in contact or overlap as well as odd-shaped foreign materials. In this measuring system, most important error originates from the process of converting the original image to the binary image. If the photograph contains a large number of spray drops, the relative size of the pixel to the drops is not infinitesimally small; thus the proper choice of threshold level to convert the original image to the binary image becomes very important. In present case, most of the images lay in one of the two separate bands of brightness level and the arithmetic mean of the most popular brightness levels from each band was chosen as the threshold level. Present image processing system reduces the subjective error by the observers in counting and measuring drops and turns out to be substantially effective. The processing time can be further reduced by improving the hardware system concerned with the digital image coding.

An SDR (Software Defined Radio) system based on general purpose computing platform has benefits of ease of software development process, high degree of software compatibility, and cost-effectiveness of general purpose processors. This paper discusses design and implementation of a dual-mode SDR system that supports both cordless phone and walkie-talky system running on Linux-based general purpose computing platform. For this purpose, we designed modulation and demodulation software on open source-based GNU radio middleware. We also designed a customized RF front-end hardware which performs frequency conversion between RF and IF. The proposed SDR system successfully exhibited its ability to operate both cordless phone and walkie-talky communication on Intel processor-based general purpose computing platform. But experience with the prototype SDR system shows that further research is required for run-time software reconfiguration and efficient integration with conventional TCP/IP protocol stacks.

A firing test of the 75 tonf-class liquid rocket engine to be used as the first and second stage engines of the KSLV-II was carried out at the rocket engine test facility(RETF). Since this engine uses liquid oxygen as the oxidizer, which is a cryogenic fluid, it is essential that the chill down of the supply pipe line and engine proceed for the firing test; thus, the given inlet requirements must be met. Moreover, it is important to understand the chill down characteristics of the facility and the engine and the amount of liquid oxygen consumed in the chill down process for efficient test operation in the future. In this paper, chill down characteristics of the supply pipe and the engine were evaluated through the investigation of the chill down process of the 75 tonf-class liquid rocket engine at each stage before and after run tank pressurization. In addition, the amount of liquid oxygen consumed was also evaluated.

Recently, there is a demand for efficient program development of an IoT application support frameworks considering heterogeneous hardware characteristics. In addition, the scope of hardware support is expanding with the development of neuromorphic architecture that mimics the human brain to learn on their own and enables autonomous computing. However, most existing IoT IDE(Integrated Development Environment), it is difficult to support AI(Artificial Intelligence) or to support services combined with various hardware such as neuromorphic architectures. In this paper, we design an AI component abstract model that supports the second-generation ANN(Artificial Neural Network) and the third-generation SNN(Spiking Neural Network), and implemented an autonomous IoT IDE based on the proposed model. IoT developers can automatically create AI components through the proposed technique without knowledge of AI and SNN. The proposed technique is flexible in code conversion according to runtime, so development productivity is high. Through experimentation of the proposed method, it was confirmed that the conversion delay time due to the VCL(Virtual Component Layer) may occur, but the difference is not significant.

In this paper, we propose an on-line mechanism that simultaneously detects cracks and profiling pavement blocks to detect the displacement of ground surface adjacent to the excavation in the urban area. The proposed method utilizes a 2D laser to profile the information about pavement blocks including the depth and distance among them. In particular, it is designed to enable the detection of cracks and portholes at runtime. For the experiment, real data was collected through Gocator, and trainng was carried out using Faster R-CNN. The performance evaluation shows that our detection precision and recall are more than 90% and the pavement blocks are profiled at the same time. Our proposed mechanism can be used for monitoring management to quantitatively detect the level of excavation risk before a large-scale ground collapse occurs.

DEX file and share objects (also known as the SO file) are important components that define the behaviors of an Android application. DEX file is implemented in Java code, whereas SO file under ELF file format is implemented in native code(C/C++). The two layers - Java and native can communicate with each other at runtime. Malicious applications have become more and more prevalent in mobile world, they are equipped with different evasion techniques to avoid being detected by anti-malware product. To avoid static analysis, some applications may perform malicious behavior in native code that is difficult to analyze. Existing researches fail to extract the call relationship which includes both Java code and native code, or can not analyze multi-DEX application. In this study, we design and implement a system that effectively extracts the call relationship between Java code and native code by analyzing DEX file and SO file of Android application.

This study is a study on the factors of preference for mobile game characters whose intellectual property rights (IP) influence is great. There have been many cases in which user-side research has been conducted on the character's preference factors. However, it is largely macro-divided. Detailed analytical studies are needed because details are overlooked. By classifying the elements of the character, the five-point scale of the recorder also obtains the data through the survey. Detailed factors were analyzed according to the results. Prior studies and results were compared and factors consistent with prior studies were analyzed. Because this study analyzed detailed factors, unlike previous studies of macro view. It is expected to help develop characters in the future.

This paper presents the design of a JPEG-LS codec for lossless image compression from AR/VR device. The proposed JPEG-LS(: LosSless) codec is mainly composed of a context modeling block, a context update block, a pixel prediction block, a prediction error coding block, a data packetizer block, and a memory block. All operations are organized in a fully pipelined architecture for real time image processing and the LOCO-I compression algorithm using improved 2D approach to compliant with the SBT coding. Compared with a similar study in JPEG-LS, the Block-RAM size of proposed STB-FLC architecture is reduced to 1/3 compact and the parallel design of the predication block could improved the processing speed.

OSGi enables services to be dynamically discovered through its service registry for fostering interactions among themselves, positioning itself as one of the most prominent SOA technologies. Web Services also provide a mature technical base of open business services being employed over the Internet and allow more value-added applications to be built up from component services. In this paper, we propose a new architecture, built on the concept of dynamic service binding, to support interbred service compositions of OSGi and Web Services. Web Services are imported into OSGi domains, and the compositions are described in WS-BPEL language. The support for crossbred compositions of OSGi services and Web Services opens up a new opportunity of a wider range of applications beyond their respective traditional target domains of home gateways in LAN environments and business applications in global Internet environments.

In Logic Bomb, the conditions of branch statements that trigger malicious behavior cannot be detected in advance, making Android malicious app analysis difficult. Various studies have been conducted to detect potentially suspicious branch statements that can be logic bombs and triggers, but suspicious branch statements cannot be properly detected in apps that contain information determined at runtime, such as reflection. In this paper, we propose a tool that can detect suspicious branch statements even when reflection is used in Android apps. It works through recording app execution logs and analyzing the recorded log). The proposed tool can check the relationship between the called method and the branch statement by recording and analyzing the user-defined methods, Java APIs called and method information called through reflection, and branch information in the log while the Android app is running. Experimental results show that suspicious branch statements can be detected even in apps where reflection is used.
