Home Gateway is always on for continuous services of home networks. Ubiquitous home networks are extended. so power consumption of home gateways increases by geometric progression. Our algorithm is for home gateway to sleep, listen or wakeup according to network traffic adaptively, as well as to keep always-on service. To do this, it traces the accumulated average of previous sleep periods. In addition to this basic algorithm, we make the profiles for user's living pattern per the day to reflect network usages in detail and adaptively. As the simulation results by comparing with overall accumulated average and per-day accumulated average, in case of the overall accumulated average, the difference the estimation and real value is distributed from 0.43% to 4%. In contrast of this, in case of the per-day accumulated average is distributed from 0.06% to 2%. From this results, we know the profiling of per-day usage pattern can help reduce the difference of the real sleep period and the estimated sleep period.

In this study, the effect of corrugation angle on thermal performance of corrugated plate is numerically investigated with an aim to develop humidifying element. Numerical analysis was conducted for a range of corrugation angle (from $0^{\circ}/0^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}/60^{\circ}$ for equal angle and from $15^{\circ}/0^{\circ}$ to $15^{\circ}/60^{\circ}$ for unequal angle). Results revealed that both j and f factor increased as corrugation angle increased. Especially, f factor increased significantly at high corrugation angles. j and f factors of unequal angle plates and those of equal angle (obtained by averaging unequal angles) plates were approximately the same. The largest $j/f^{1/3}$, which implies the largest heat transfer rate per consumed power, was obtained at $15^{\circ}/15^{\circ}$. Existing correlations under- or over-predicted the present numerical results.

This study reports the relationship between rollingstock weight and acceleration performance for HEMU-430X, the first electric multiple unit developed in Korea. While maintaining the consumed power, the total train weight was deliberately varied by 2%, by adding and removing weights, and the it was shown that the lighter train was found to have higher acceleration performance and hence better suited for maximum speed tests below the speed of 413km/h. According to the power consumption analysis based on the velocity data collected per 0.1 second, the balanced speed, when the traction force and air resistance become equal, was determined to be 419km/h for HEMU-430X, which is in agreement with tested result. It is expected that the analyses in this study will be utilized for the speed tests in the future.

Occurrence of powdery mildew was found on Japanese plum (Prunus salicina) growing in private gardens in Yanggu, Hongcheon, Hoengseong, and Gapyeong of central Korea, in 2011. Despite of extensive survey, however, there was no powdery mildew infection in commercial orchards of Japanese plum in Korea. The initial symptoms included white, evanescent mycelia and irregular patches on leaves and young stems. Infected leaves later showed partial distortion and diffuse red-purple discoloration. Based on morphological characteristics of holomorph and phylogenetic analysis, the causal fungus was identified as Podosphaera tridactyla. This is the first report of powdery mildew on Japanese plum in Korea.

Geocasting, a variant of the conventional multicasting problem, is one of communication type in which the data packets are delivered to a group of all nodes within a specified geographical region (i.e., the geocasting region) and is called location-based multicasting(LBM)(l). An Ad-hoc network is a dynamically reconfigurable and temporary wireless network where all mobile devices using batteries as energy resources cooperatively maintain network connectivity without central administration or the assistance of base stations. Consequently, the technique to efficiently consume the limited amounts of energy resources is an important problem so that the system lifetime is maximized. In this paper, we propose a LBPA(Location-Based Power Aware) geocasting algorithm that selects energy-aware neighbor to route a packet towards the target region In Ad-hoc network environments. The method Is such that the energy consumption is balanced among the nodes in proportion to their energy reserves. Through the simulations, the proposed LBPA algorithm shows better results, that is, as good as 40% on the average over the conventional LBM algorithm in terms of the network lifetime.

In real system application, the 3-D obstacle avoidance system for the autonomous control of the underwater flight vehicle (UFV) operates with the following problems: the sonar offers the range/bearing information of obstacles in a local detection area, it requires the system that has reduced acoustic noise and power consumption in terms of the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), it has the UFV operation constraints such as maximum pitch and depth, and it requires an easy design procedure in terms of its structures and parameters. To solve these problems, an intelligent 3-D obstacle avoidance algorithm using the evolution strategy (ES) and the fuzzy logic controller (FLC), is proposed. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, the 3-D obstacle avoidance of UFV is performed. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm effectively solves the problems in the real system application.

In real system application, the obstacle avoidance system for the autonomous control of the underwater flight vehicle (UFV) operates with the following problems: it has local information because the sonar can only offer the obstacle information in a local detection area, it requires a continuous control input because the system that has reduced acoustic noise and power consumption is necessary, and further, it requires an easy design procedure in terms of its structures and parameters. To solve these problems, an intelligent obstacle avoidance algorithm using the evolution strategy (ES) and the fuzzy logic controller (FLC), is proposed. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, the obstacle avoidance of UFV is performed.

An experimental study was performed for the combustion-field visualization of the burner which burns the liquid hydrocarbon fuel atomized by an ultrasonic oscillator. Configurations of the flame and temperature gradient were caught by both high-speed camera and thermo-graphic camera, and those images were analyzed in detail through a post-processing. In addition, the fuel consumption was measured using the balance during the combustion reaction. As a result, the consumption of atomized fuel increased with the increasing flow-rate of carrier-gas, but any correlation between the air/fuel ratio and carrier-gas flow-rate was not found at the low flow-rate condition. Also, the combustion-field grew and reaction-temperature rose due to the strengthening of combustion reaction with the increasing flow-rate of carrier-gas and power consumption of ultrasonic oscillator.

The study of the computer architecture has shown that major improvements in price-to-energy performance stems from domain-specific hardware development. This paper analyzes the tensor processing unit (TPU) ASIC which can accelerate the reasoning of the artificial neural network (NN). The core device of the TPU is a MAC matrix multiplier capable of high-speed operation and software-managed on-chip memory. The execution model of the TPU can meet the reaction time requirements of the artificial neural network better than the existing CPU and the GPU execution models, with the small area and the low power consumption even though it has many MAC and large memory. Utilizing the TPU for the tensor flow benchmark framework, it can achieve higher performance and better power efficiency than the CPU or CPU. In this paper, we analyze TPU, simulate the Python modeled OpenTPU, and synthesize the matrix multiplication unit, which is the key hardware.
