매트릭스 컨버터는 출력 한 상에 대하여, 입력 3상이 교대로 연결되는 형태이다. 현재 사용하고 있는 개선된 벤츄리니 방법은 시비율과 캐리어를 사용하여 기존의 벤츄리니 구현 방법을 단순화 시켰지만 효율 측면에서만 본다면 불필요한 스위칭을 하고 있는 비효율적인 스위칭을 하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 기존 스위칭 패턴을 개선하여 스위칭 손실을 줄이고 효율을 개선하는 스위칭에 대해 제안해 본다. 기존의 비대칭 스위칭 패턴을 대칭된 스위칭 패턴으로 변화하여 특정한 섹터에서 추가적으로 발생되는 손실을 줄이고 해석적 손실의 정확도를 높일 수 있다. 제안된 방법에 대한 타당성을 입증하기 위해 실험을 수행하였다.

IMT-2000에서는 음성 트래픽뿐만 아니라 데이타, 화상, 비디오와 같은 멀티미디어 트래픽을 지원함으로서 더 많은 무선 대역폭이 요구된다. 특히 멀티미디어 데이타의 전송 중에 핸드오프가 발생한다면, 기지국은 멀티미디어 데이타의 QoS를 유지하기 위하여 효율적인 대역 할당 및 핸드오프 방안이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 IMT-2000 환경에서 이동체의 이동 방향을 추정하여 이를 근거로 대역폭을 예약하고, 멀티미디어 트래픽을 전송하는 핸드오프 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 섹터 추정과 존 추정으로 구성된 2 단계 추정에 근거하여 이동체의 위치와 이동 방향을 결정하고 이를 이용하여 대역폭을 예약한다.

In this paper, we consider a sectorized wireless powered sensor network (WPSN), wherein sensor nodes are clustered based on sectors and transmit data to the cluster head (CH) using energy harvested from a hybrid access point. We construct a system model for this sectorized WPSN and find optimal coordinates of CH that maximize the achievable transmission rate of sensing data. To obtain the optimal CH with low overhead, we perform an asymptotic geometric analysis (GA). Simulation results show that the proposed GA-based CH selection method is close to the optimal performance exhibited by exhaustive search with a low feedback overhead.

Recently, the flash memory consistently increases the storage capacity while the price of the memory is being cheap. This makes the mass storage SSD(Solid State Drive) popular. The flash memory, however, has a lot of defects. In order that these defects should be complimented, it is needed to use the FTL(Flash Translation Layer) as a special layer. To operate restrictions of the hardware efficiently, the FTL that is essential to work plays a role of transferring from the logical sector number of file systems to the physical sector number of the flash memory. Especially, the poor performance is attributed to Erase-Before-Write among the flash memory's restrictions, and even if there are lots of studies based on the log block, a few problems still exists in order for the mass storage flash memory to be operated. If the FAST based on Log Block-Based Flash often is generated in the wide locality causing the random writing, the merge operation will be occur as the sectors is not used in the data block. In other words, the block thrashing which is not effective occurs and then, the flash memory's performance get worse. If the log-block makes the overwriting caused, the log-block is executed like a cache and this technique contributes to developing the flash memory performance improvement. This study for the improvement of the random writing demonstrates that the log block is operated like not only the cache but also the entire flash memory so that the merge operation and the erase operation are diminished as there are a distinct mapping table called as the offset mapping table for the operation. The new FTL is to be defined as the XAST(extensively-Associative Sector Translation). The XAST manages the offset mapping table with efficiency based on the spatial locality and temporal locality.

We present a secondary camera optimization method that helps the user exploring 3D virtual environment to precisely observe possible collisions between objects. The first role of our secondary camera is to automatically detect the area with the greatest possible collision. The second role is to show the detected area from a new angle of view that the current main camera cannot show. However, as the shapes of target objects are complex, the shape of the empty space between objects is also complex and narrow. It means that the space for the secondary camera position is highly constrained and its optimization can be very difficult. To avoid this difficulty and increase the efficiency of the optimization, we first compute a bisector surface between two target objects. Then, we limit the domain of the secondary camera's position on the bisector surface in the optimization process. To verify the utility of our method, we built a demonstration program in which the user can explore in a 3D virtual world and interact with objects by using a hand motion recognition device and conducted a user study.

When multi-user MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) systems utilize a sum-rate maximization (SRM) scheduler, the throughput of the systems can be enhanced. However, fairness problems may arise because users located near cell edge or experiencing poor channel conditions are less likely to be selected by the SRM scheduler. In this paper, a weighted sum-rate maximization (WSRM) scheduler is used to enhance the fairness performance of the MIMO systems. Closed-form expressions for the optimal transmit power allocation of WSRM and corresponding weighted sum-rate (WSR) are derived in the 6-sector collaborative transmission system. Using the derived results, we propose an algorithm which searches the optimal power allocation for WSRM in the 3-sector collaborative transmission system. Based on the derived closed-form expressions and the proposed algorithm, we perform computer simulations to compare performance of the WSRM scheduler and the SRM scheduler with respect to the sum-rate and the log-sum-of-average rates. We further verify that the WSRM scheduler efficiently improves fairness performance by showing the enhanced performance of average transmission rates in low percentile region.

Flash memory has penetrated our life in various forms. For example, flash memory is important storage component of ubiquitous computing or mobile products such as cell phone, MP3 player, PDA, and portable storage kits. Behind of the wide acceptance as memory is many advantages of flash memory: for instances, low power consumption, nonvolatile, stability and portability. In addition to mentioned strengths, the recent development of gigabyte range capacity flash memory makes a careful prediction that the flash memory might replace some of storage area dominated by hard disks. In order to have overwriting function, one block must be erased before overwriting is performed. This difference results in the cost of reading, writing and erasing in flash memory[1][5][6]. Since this difference has not been considered in traditional buffer replacement technologies adopted in system software such as OS and DBMS, a new buffer replacement strategy becomes necessary. In this paper, a new buffer replacement strategy, reflecting difference I/O cost and applicable to flash memory, suggest and compares with other buffer replacement strategies using workloads as Zipfian distribution and real data.

The intelligent disk can improve the overall performance of the I/O subsystem by processing the I/O operations in the disk side. At present time, however, realizing the intelligent disk seems to be impossible because of the limitation of the I/O subsystem and the lack of the backward compatibility with the traditional I/O interface scheme. In this paper, we proposed new model for the intelligent disk that dynamically optimizes the I/O subsystem using the information that is only related to the physical sector. In this way, the proposed model does not break the compatibility with the traditional I/O interface scheme. For these works, the boosting algorithm that upgrades a weak learner by repeating teaming is used. If the last learner classifies a recent I/O workload as the multimedia workload, the disk reads more sectors. Also, by embedding this functionality as a firmware or a embedded OS within the disk, the overall I/O subsystem can be operated more efficiently without the additional workload.

The main purpose of this research is to figure out systematically the total amount of social welfare resources in Korea. For the stated purpose, this research (1) defines the concept of social welfare resource, (2) develops basic framework for measuring total amount of resources, (3) estimates total amount of social welfare resources based on the year of 2004, and (4) presents some implications of findings. Social welfare resource is defined as any valuable things, material or immaterial, that one can put into instrumental use in order to meet social needs or to resolve problems in the interaction process between human and the environment. Institutional sectors of social welfare resource consist the following 5 major areas derived from resource providers: The government, enterprise, market, the third sector (religion & welfare institutions, fundraising agencies, and NPOs), and community (families, relatives, and neighborhoods). For the estimation of the total amount of social welfare resources, this research takes advantages of both the major methods of provider centered approach and the intermediary agent centered approach. Based on the compromised method estimation, the total amount of social welfare resources in Korea in the year of 2004 is 147 trillion won (approximately, 148 billion dollars and 19% of GDP). Among them, central and local governments provide 52 trillion won. The private sector expends a total of 109 trillion won, which contains 44 trillion from enterprise, 54.3 trillion from market, 3.0 trillion from the third sector, and 8.3 trillion from the community. The enterprise and market share of welfare resources exceeds 66% of the total expenditure, and the market is expected to increase gradually in the near future.
