As more DSP functionalities are integrated into an embedded mobile device, power consumption and device reliability have emerged as crucial issues. As the complexity of mobile embedded designs increases very rapidly, verifying the functionality of the mobile devices has become extremely difficult. Therefore, designs with error (fault) tolerance are often required since these capabilities will enable the design to operate properly even with some existence of errors. However, designs with fault tolerance may suffer from significant power overhead since fault tolerance is often achieved by resource replication. In this paper, we propose a low power and fault tolerant MAC (multiply-and-accumulate) design. The proposed MAC design is based on multiple barrel shifters since MAC designs with barrel-shifters and adders are known to be excellent in terms of power consumption.

장미과(Rosaceae)에 속하는 딸기(Fragaria ananassa Duch.)는 비타민 C가 풍부하고 독특한 향기를 갖는 과채류로서 겨울에서 봄까지의 기간 동안 대부분 생식으로 소비되고 있다. 국내에서 재배되는 품종으로는 설향, 매향, 장희 등이 있으며 품종에 따라 성분과 함량이 다양하지만 일반적으로 유기산이 많아서 신맛과 단맛이 조화로운 특징이 있다. 소비자들이 딸기를 구입할 때 딸기가 포장된 상자에 모양이 일정하고 붉은 색상이 선명한 딸기에 호감을 갖게 된다. 딸기는 품종에 따라 기준이 되는 모양이 다르기 때문에 숙련된 선별사에 의해서 대부분 육안으로 선별되고 있는 실정이다. 하지만 개인적인 선별 능력의 차이와 주관적인 판단으로 인해 규격을 벗어난 딸기가 혼입되어 전체적인 품질 등급을 떨어뜨리는 경우가 종종 발생하기도 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 품종별로 기준이 되는 표준 형상과 비정상적인 모양의 기형 딸기를 객관적으로 판별하여 선별할 수 있는 영상 시스템을 구축하기 위해 수행되었으며 표준이 되는 딸기의 3차원 형상을 구축하기 위해 2차원 레이저 변위 센서를 이용하여 딸기의 입체 영상을 구축하고자 하였다. 실험을 위해 사용된 딸기는 시중에서 구입한 설향 품종이었으며 2차원 레이저 변위 센서는 라인 스캔 방식으로 1회 프로파일 스캔에 1,280개의 데이터 포인터를 획득할 수 있으며 분해능은 0.095~0.17 mm이었다. 상부에 부착된 2차원 레이저 변위 센서와 하부에 놓인 딸기의 거리는 100 mm였다. 획득한 딸기의 2차원 영상은 높이 차이를 이용하여 색상 농도로 표현하였으며 이 영상을 다시 3차원 영상으로 구축하였다.

Ubiquitous Sensor Network(USN) , the core technology for the Ubiquitous environments ,must be operated in the restrictive battery capacity and computing. From this cause, USN needs the lightweight design for low electric energy and the minimum computing. The previous mutual authentication. based on J$\emptyset$sang's trust model, in USN has a character that makes the lightweight mutual authentication possible in conformity with minimum computing. But, it has an imperfection at the components of representing the trust from a lightweight point of view. In this paper, we improve on the J$\emptyset$sang's trust model to apply a lightweight mutual authentication in USN. The proposed trust model in USN defines the trust information with the only degree of trust-entity(x)'s belief. The defined trust information has a superiority over the J$\emptyset$sang's trust model from a computing Point of view. because it computes information by Probability and logic operation(AND).

In contrast to the machineries using rolling element bearings, systems with journal bearings generally operate in large scale and under severe loading condition such as steam generator turbines and internal combustion engines. Failure of the bearings in these machineries can result in the system breakdown. To avoid the time consuming repair and considerable economic loss, the detection of incipient failure in journal bearings becomes very important. In this experimental approach, acoustic emission monitoring is applied to the detection of incipient failure caused by several types of abnormal operating condition most probable in the journal bearing systems. It has been known that the intervention of foreign materials, insufficient lubrication and misassembly etc. are principal factors to cause bearing failure and distress. The experiment was conducted under such designed conditions as hard particles in the lubrication layer, insufficient lubrication, and metallic contact in the simulated journal bearing system. The results showed that acoustic emission could be an effective tool to detect the incipient failure in journal bearings.

Embedded systems require intensively complex and high power dissipating modules that have the capability of real-time high performance data processing, wide bandwidth communication, and low power consumption. However, the current battery technology has not been developed as much as meeting the requirements of portable embedded systems for long system lifetime. In this paper, new approach that operates with low energy consumption is proposed to overcome the situation while guaranteeing detection accuracy. The designed method associates a variety of detection algorithms hierarchically to detect events happening around the system. The Change for energy consumption characteristics is shown with change for probabilistic characteristics and those relationships are analytically explained from experiments. Furthermore, several techniques to consume low energy and achieve high detection accuracy are described, depending on the event static or dynamic characteristics.

Technologies of the 4th industrial revolution have been unknowingly seeping into our lives. Many IoT based home security systems are using the convolutional neural network(CNN) as good biometrics to recognize a face and protect home and family from intruders since CNN has demonstrated its excellent ability in image recognition. In this paper, three layouts of CNN for 2D and 2.5D image of small dataset with various input image size and filter size are explored. The simulation results show that the layout of CNN with 50*50 input size of 2.5D image, 2 convolution and max pooling layer, and 3*3 filter size for small dataset of 2.5D image is optimal for a home security system with recognition accuracy of 0.966. In addition, the longest CPU time consumption for one input image is 0.057S. The proposed layout of CNN for a face recognition is suitable to control the actuators in the home security system because a home security system requires good face recognition and short recognition time.

In this paper, dependence of subthreshold current has been analyzed for doping distribution and channel structure of double gate(DG) MOSFET. The charge distribution of Gaussian function validated in previous researches has been used to obtain potential distribution in Poisson equation. Since DGMOSFETs have reduced short channel effects with improvement of current controllability by gate voltages, subthreshold characteristics have been enhanced. The control of current in subthreshold region is very important factor related with power consumption for ultra large scaled integration. The deviation of threshold voltage has been qualitatively analyzed using the changes of subthreshold current for gate voltages. Subthreshold current has been influenced by doping distribution and channel dimension. In this study, the influence of channel length and thickness on current has been analyzed according to intensity and distribution of doping.

Excessive heat may be generated during the semiconductor manufacturing process. Therefore, precise control of temperature is required to maintain a constant ambient temperature and wafer temperature in the chamber. Compared to an industrial chiller, a semiconductor chiller's power consumption is high because it is in continuous operation for a year. Because of this high power consumption, it is necessary to develop an energy-efficient chiller by optimizing the operation. The competitiveness of domestic products is low because of the high energy consumption. We experimentally investigated a domestic semiconductor by conducting load change, temperature rise and fall, and control precision experiments. The experimental study showed that the chiller had 2.1-3.9 kW of cooling capacity and 0.56-0.93 of EER. The control precisions were ${\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and ${\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ when the setting temperatures were $0^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$ respectively.
