Owing to the improved wireless communication technologies, it is possible to provide streaming service of multimedia with PDAs and mobile phones in addition to desktop PCs. Since mobile client devices have low computing power and low network bandwidth due to wireless network, the transcoding technology to adapt media for mobile client devices considering their characteristics is necessary. However, since mobile clients use wireless network and the wireless network have less stable bandwidth according to distance from AP and environments, it is hard to support stable QoS to mobile clients. In this paper, we propose a dynamic bit rate control method for transcoding in order to supprot stable QoS of streaming media service to mobile clients via wireless network. The proposed method is shown to serve seamless streaming media service with adaptive bit rate control according to state of wireless network in real time and to reduce transmission failure from experiment.

Following the recent trends of reducing the size of multimedia devices, we tried for the development of a compact-sized speaker to produce low-frequency sounds efficiently. For this work, equivalent-circuit analysis was used to get fundamental resonant frequency and then the structure of speaker components has been changed appropriately. As a result, an 80mm small-sized speaker was developed. The performance test showed that the resonant frequency of our system is 79 Hz while that of numerical analysis was 81Hz. At a distance of 1m from our speaker, the frequency ranges 80 Hz to 15kHz and the average sound pressure was found to be 84±2 dB. The second (at 400 Hz) and the third (at 100 Hz) high-frequency distortions of our system were 0.5% and 1.8% respectively, which is to be compared with the distortions of 0.9% and 6% in conventional speakers.

Portable embedded systems have recently become smaller in size and offer a variety of junctions for users. These systems require high performance processors to handle the many functions and also a small battery to fit inside the system. However, due to its size, the battery life has become a major issue. It is important to have both efficient power design and management for each function, while optimizing processor voltage and clock frequency in order to extend the battery life of the system. In this paper, we calculated the efficiency of power in optimizing power rail. This system has two microprocessors. One is used to play music and movie files while the other is for DMB. In order to reduce power consumption, the DMB microprocessor is turned of while music or videos are played. Lastly, DVFS is applied to the processor in the system to reduce power consumption. Experimental results of the implemented system have resulted in reduced power consumption.

The increasing demand on the use of multimedia video contents drives more mobile embedded systems to incorporate H.264/AVC decoding capability. An H.264/AVC decoder often requires high computation bandwidth during its decoding phase. Depending upon processor computation capability and multimedia contents complexity, the decoder can be implemented either in hardware or software. However, without a thorough analysis on the Performance and resource requirements, it is difficult to choose a cost-effective methodology of implementing this codec. This paper presents both hardware and software implementation of H.264/AVC decoding subsystem in mobile embedded systems, and quantitatively analyses the performance and resource requirements. It also shows the methodology to identify performance bottleneck in Linux-based mobile embedded systems, which is in turn used to select feasible and efficient implementation methodology.

The existing emergency medical systems are unable to obtain accurate clinical information, so most of the specialized first aid is being done within the hospital. In this paper, designed medical information transfer structure based on medical information standards HL7 for accurate first aid is proposed. The designed system can share clinical information and emergency medical information in terms of standard HL7 messages. Therefore, the correct first aid is available in steps taken by the hospital. In addition, the system of this paper has been implemented based on the OSGi service platform for the efficient integration with other health-related services.

With the rapid development of multimedia applications and wireless communication networks, consumer demand for video-over-wireless capability on mobile computing systems is growing rapidly. In this regard, this paper introduces YUV-aware instructions that enhance the performance and efficiency in the processing of color image and video. Traditional multimedia extensions (e.g., MMX, SSE, VIS, and AltiVec) depend solely on generic subword parallelism whereas the proposed YUV-aware instructions support parallel operations on two-packed 16-bit YUV (6-bit Y, 5-bits U, V) values in a 32-bit datapath architecture, providing greater concurrency and efficiency for color image and video processing. Moreover, the ability to reduce data format size reduces system cost. Experiment results on a representative dynamically scheduled embedded superscalar processor show that YUV-aware instructions achieve an average speedup of 3.9x over the baseline superscalar performance. This is in contrast to MMX (a representative Intel#s multimedia extension), which achieves a speedup of only 2.1x over the same baseline superscalar processor. In addition, YUV-aware instructions outperform MMX instructions in energy reduction (75.8% reduction with YUV-aware instructions, but only 54.8% reduction with MMX instructions over the baseline).

The XMT standard is MPEG-4 Scene Description of textual format. It can be utilized to edit the audio/video media for broadcasting and develop the user oriented media contents. This paper proposes XMT authoring system that supports exchange among contents in various presentation environment. The XMT authoring system creates two levels of textual syntax and semantics: XMT-$\alpha$ format and XMT-$\Omega$ format. Because XMT-$\alpha$ and XMT-$\Omega$ have different expression method about an object, the authoring tool offers interface for them. the authoring tool offers interface for them. Also, it defines interior data structure that can support two file formats, and offers the function that transforms XMT-$\alpha$ into BIFS and transforms XMT-$\Omega$ into SMIL or XMT-$\alpha$. It offers interoperability among multimedia data in various environment that is XMT's characteristic.

On multimedia teleconferencing system existing a number of participants, face of the participants can beperceived by visual image. However, differentiation of each participant's voice and spaciousness sense are very hard since voice of all participants is processed with one dimensional data. In this paper, we implemented three dimensional audio rendering system using the HRTF(Head Related Transfer Function) and distance sense reproduction method and determined the optimal location of the participants for teleconferencing system. In the results of the listening test using elevation and azimuth angle, we showed that directional perception of the azimuth angles were better than that of the elevation angles. Specially, we showed that participant location using the HRTFS of the azimuth angle 10" , 90" , 270" and350" was efficient in teleconferencing system existing four participants. We also proposed that distance cue was used for enhancement of the reality and location of many participants more than five.ipants more than five.
