Recently the rapid growth of Internet and the construction of high speed networks make many kinds of multimedia services possible. But most of current multimedia services are designed being by client/server model, which incurs high load of central server. In order to solve this problem, we propose a peer-to-peer network-based discovery mechanism for multimedia services. In the proposed scheme, mobile agents that have autonomy and mobility are used to search the location of resources. Use of mobile agents can solve the loss problem of the search result that occurs when the network is unsettled in pure peer-to-peer network. It also supports interoperability in heterogeneous system environments. In the proposed scheme, each host maintains the location information of resources which are locally requested or recently requested by other hosts. So, the proposed scheme has faster response time than the pre-existing mechanisms in pure peer-to-peer network environments.

This paper proposes fault tolerant control laws using sliding mode control and adaptation laws for a satellite with reaction wheel faults. Considering system parameter errors and faults uncertainties in the dynamics of satellite, the control laws were designed. It was assumed that only reaction wheel failures occurred as faults. The reaction wheel faults were reflected in the multiply form. Because the proposed control laws satisfy the Lyapunov stability theorem, the stability is guaranteed. Through computer simulation, it was assured that the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller has a better performance than the existing sliding mode controller under unstable angular rates.

Harmonic drives have been widely used in combination with joint torque sensors in order to facilitate accurate manipulator control. A harmonic drive causes a torque ripple because of its structural characteristics, and this torque ripple tends to deteriorate the performance of a controller or observer that uses torque sensors. This paper proposes a switching notch filter for reducing the torque ripple caused by a harmonic drive in a joint torque sensor; the functioning of this filter is based on the relationship between the frequency components of the torque ripple and the rotational velocity of the harmonic drive. The proposed switching notch filter is advantageous in that it requires less computational load and does not necessitate additional circuits or structures. Various experiments demonstrate that the proposed filter has good filtering performance, fast response, and good switching stability.

In this study, mesoporous tin oxide was synthesized by sol-gel method using $C_{16}TMABr$ surfactant as a template in a basic condition. The optimum conditions for the synthesis of mesoporous $SnO_2$ were investigated and the obtained samples were characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption and TEM analysis. A mesoporous and nanostructured $SnO_2$ gas sensor with Au electrode and Pt heater has been fabricated on alumina substrate as one unit via a screen printing process. Sensing abilities of fabricated sensors were examined for CO and $CH_4$ gases, respectively, at $350^{\circ}C$ in the concentration range of 1~10,000 ppm. Influence of loading amount of palladium impregnated on $SnO_2$ was also tested in detection of those gases. High sensitivity to detecting gases and the fast response speed with stability were obtained with the mesoporous tin oxide sensor as compared to a non-porous one under the same detection conditions.

As demand for efficiency in handling dynamic XML data grows, new dynamic XML labeling schemes have been researched. The key idea of the dynamic XML labeling scheme is to find ancestor-descendent-sibling relationships and to minimize memory space to store total label, response time and range of relabeling incurred by update operations. The prime number labeling scheme is a representative scheme which supports dynamic XML documents. It determines the ancestor-descendant relationships between two elements by a simple divisibility test of labels. When a new element is inserted into the XML data using this scheme, it does not change the label values of existing nodes. However, since each prime number must be used exclusively, labels can become significantly large. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce a novel technique to effectively reduce the problem of label overflow. The suggested idea is based on tree decomposition. When label overflow occurs, the full tree is divided into several sub-trees, and nodes in each sub-tree are separately labeled. Through experiments, we show the effectiveness of our scheme.

A low-cost and flexible potassium ion (K⁺) sensor was fabricated through a screen-printed process. Uniform and conformal coating of conductive inks was verified by scanning electron microscopy and optical microscopy measurements. The K⁺-sensors showed a high sensitivity, fast response time, and low detection limit. The sensitivity of K⁺-sensor was similar to that of both mechanically normal and bent states. The K⁺-sensor exhibited a good reproducibility with no hysteresis effect and excellent long term stability. In addition, the K⁺-sensor showed an excellent selectivity for K⁺ concentrations in the presence of other interfering cation ions. Successful measurements of K⁺ concentrations in sports drink samples were demonstrated by comparing K⁺ concentration values from K⁺-sensor to those of using a commercial K⁺-meter.

In this paper, a methodology for the automatic design of the optimal systolic arrays is proposed. Algorithm transformation is the main mathematical tool on which this methodology is based. Also, technique for partitioning algorithm into systolic arrays is presented. Algorithm partitioning is essential when the size of the computational problem is larger than the size of the array. This study results in (a) reduction of the design time of systolic arrays for given algorithms, (b) CRT display of the structures of systolic arrays, and (c) automatic designing of the optimal systolic array by the criteria such as the number of processing elements, bands, and communication paths. The procedure for these results was programmed using HP BASIC language on HP-9836 computer.

In this paper, we implemented a Ka-band frequency synthesizer for millimeter wave seeker. we designed for high frequency resolution and frequency hopping response time in the digital synthesis method which uses DDS(Direct Digital Synthesizer). but frequency bandwidth was limited low frequency because DDS output frequency was limited 1/2 by system clock. thus, frequency synthesizer was converted to Ka-band using the frequency multiplier ${\times}4$ and local oscillator. proposed frequency synthesizer was bandwidth 500MHz, frequency switching time was $0.7{\mu}s$, spurious level was suppressed below -52dBc. phase noise was -99dBc/Hz at offset 100kHz and flatness was ${\pm}1dB$.

Recently, as WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) becomes the necessary feature in IoT (Internet of Things) devices, the importance of data security also hugely increases. In this paper, we present the low-complexity 128-bit AES-$CCM^*$ hardware IP for IEEE 802.15.4 standard. For low-cost and low-power implementation which is essentially required in IoT devices, we propose two optimization methods. First, the folded AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) processing core with 8-bit datapath is presented where composite field arithmetic is adopted for reduced hardware complexity. In addition, to support $CCM^*$ mode defined in IEEE 802.15.4, we propose the mode-toggling architecture which requires less hardware resources and processing time. With the proposed methods, the gate count of the proposed AES-$CCM^*$ IP can be lowered up to 57% compared to the conventional architecture.

In this paper, the operating stiffness of a parallel robot used to handle heavy packages is optimized. Because the studied model, called a "pick and place robot," is applied for packaging logistics, it is important for the robot to be lightweight so that it may respond rapidly and have high stiffness to allow sufficient operating precision. However, these two requirements of low weight and high stiffness are mutually exclusive. Thus, the dynamic characteristics of the robot are analyzed through multibody dynamics analysis, and topology optimization is conducted to achieve this exclusive performance. Lastly, the reliability of the topology optimization is verified by applying the optimized design to the parallel robot.
