This paper suggests a congestion control scheme for CL (ConnectionLess) overlay network using the feedback loops between CL user and CL server, between CL servers, and between end-to-end CL users, and the header translation table of CL server. The CL overlay network for CBDS(Connectionless Broadhand Data Service) defined by ITU-T((International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication) consists of CL servers which route frames and links which connect between CL user and CL server or between CL servers. In the CL overlay network, two kinds of congestion, CL link congestion and CL server congestion, may occur. We considered the schemes to solve the congestion. link-by-link method[18] has used the ABR feedback loops of ATM layer between CL user and CL server or between CL servers, and the congestion table using header translation table of CL server. As in congestion of output virtual channel this method has an effect on all the traffic transmitting through the link, then it has an effect on the traffic that has not caused the congestion. As a result, the link utilization of output virtual channel that does not bring the congestion and outputs the traffic is decreased. To overcome this drawback of link-by-link, we proposed the hybrid method that are using the ABR feedback loops of link-by-link method, the feedback loop between CL users in end-to-end, the congestion table using and the header translation table. This scheme deals with teh congestion immediately by link-by-link loops and the header translation table, and then regulates the sending rate of CL user that causes the congestion by end-to-end loop.

Recently, LTE is preparing to make a new leap forward LTE-A all over the world. As LTE privides high speed service, the role of mobile phones seems to change from voice to data service. According to Cisco, global mobile data traffic will increase nearly 11-fold between 2013 and 2018. Mobile video traffic will reach 75% by 2018 from 66% in 2013 in Korea. However, voice service is still the most important role of mobile phones. Thus, controllability of throughput and low BLER is indispensable for high-quality VoIP service among various type of traffic. Although the maximum AMR-WB, 23.85 Kbps is sufficient to a VoIP call, it is difficult for the LTE which can provide tens to hundreds of MB/s may not keep the certain level VoIP QoS especially in the cell-edge area. This paper proposes a new scheduling algorithm in order to improve VoIP performance after analyzing various scheduling algorithms. The proposal is the technology which applies more priority processing for VoIP than other applications in cell-edge area based on two-tier scheduling algorithm. The simulation result shows the improvement of VoIP performance in the view point of throughput and BLER.

Currently, the quality measurement of the work is carried out by the supervisor's visual inspection, as the workers individually judge the number of resolutions, thickness, speed and vibration. After work, we are conducting follow-up work through traditional spot test, which is less representative. Therefore, it is impossible to check the results of the resolution, and there is always the possibility that problems will arise due to poor construction. This study demonstrates the feasibility of using the continuous compaction strength measurement method by comparing the continuous compaction strength measurement method and the conventional compaction strength measurement method after performing the compaction in the actual field scale in various test conditions. The validity is verified by analyzing the Compaction Meter Value of an Intelligent Compaction roller composed of a Global Positioning System and an accelerometer, Based on the proven results, a full range of quality can be confirmed without a single test. The quality confirmation is visualized in the compaction control program developed in this study, This enables the field manager to perform real-time quality monitoring at the same time as compaction.

Stommel(1948)은 서안경계류의 원인이 베타효과($\beta$-effect)라 일컫는 코리올리 파라미터(f)의 위도 변화 때문인 것을 밝혔다. 서안경계류는 고등학교나 대학 교양에서 중요하게 다뤄지고 있다. 학생들은 보통 이론 수업만으로 서안경계류의 발생 과정, 이에 관련된 코리올리 힘, 베타효과 등을 이해해야 한다. 때문에 서안경계류와 관련된 실험이 있다면 이를 이해하는 데 큰 도움이 될 것이다. 또한 연구에서 검토한 6종의 고등학교 지구과학 2 교과서는 서안경계류를 본문과 더불어 삽화로 설명하고 있다. 그러나 이 중 3종의 교과서 삽화에서는 서안경계류의 발생 원인을 코리올리 힘만으로 지적하고 있다. 따라서 일부 학생은 서안경계류의 원인을 코리올리 힘으로 오해 할 수 있다. 위와 같은 이유로 우리는 서안경계류가 코리올리 힘의 작용과 베타효과에 의해 나타나는 것을 쉽게 확인 할 수 있는 실험 장치와 다양한 실험 방법을 개발하였다. 개발한 실험 장치는 직육면체의 수조와 회전 속도를 조절할 수 있는 테이블로 구성된다. (Fig. 1) 이와 같은 회전수조는 대기와 해양의 움직임을 실험실에서 모사하기 위해 자주 사용되었다(Beardsely 1969, 소선섭 등 1995; 1997). 우리의 수조는 경사진 바닥과 평평한 바닥으로 두종류를 제작하였다. 바닥이 경사진 수조는 베타효과를 구현하기 위한 것이다. 반시계 방향으로 회전하는 테이블은 중위도 어떤 위도에 접하는 가상의 평면이 지구 자전에 의해 회전하는 것을 나타낸다. 그리고 수조 상부에는 회전원판을 물에 접하여 시계방향으로 회전시킨다. 회전원판은 북반구 중위도 해양에 작용하는 바람 응력을 나타낸다. 우리는 테이블의 회전유무와 바닥의 경사유무에 따라 4개 실험을 수행하였다(Table. 1). 각 실험에서 물을 채운 수조를 원판에 올려놓고, 회전원판을 작동시킨 후 20분 동안 그대로 두어 수조안의 미세규모의 운동을 최소화 시킨 후 잉크를 떨어뜨리고 관찰하였다. 그 결과 실험 SB_f1은 베타효과와 코리올리 힘이 존재하여 서쪽 경계에서 좁고 빠른 흐름을 만들고 수조의 중간 부근에서 경계를 벗어나 동쪽으로 향하고 있다. 이 모습은 실제 해양의 서안경계류의 분리 현상과 비슷하다. FB_f1은 코리올리 힘만 존재하여 서쪽 경계에서 좁고 빠른 순환과 경계를 벗어나 동쪽으로 분리되는 흐름이 나타나지 않으며 전반적으로 크게 회전하는 모습을 보인다. SB_f0은 바람의 응력만 존재하는 경우로 잉크가 확산하는 모습을 보이며 나선팔의 모양으로 회전하면서 넓게 퍼져나간다. FB_f0의 모양도 이와 비슷하게 나타난다. 실험 SB_f1과 FB_f1을 비교하여 서안경계류는 코리올리 힘의 위도변화 효과인 베타효과가 있을 때 발생한다는 것을 알 수 있다(Fig. 2). 이 결과는 "단순히 코리올리 효과에 의해 서안경계류가 발생한다"는 생각을 바꾸게 할 것이다. 덧붙여 서안경계류 분리와 수조 바닥의 경사의 관계를 살펴보기 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 경사가 더 급하면 ($\alpha=20^{\circ}$) 서쪽 경계를 벗어나는 지점이 좀 더 북쪽에 나타났다. 현재 서안경계류는 개발한 실험 장치와 방법을 학교 현장에 적용하여 그 교육적 활용 가치를 평가하는 연구를 진행하고 있다.

Graphics rendering pipeline (application, geometry, and rasterizer) is the core of real-time graphics which is the most important functionality for computer games. Usually this rendering process is completed by both the CPU and the GPU, and a bottleneck can be located either in the CPU or the GPU. This paper focuses on reducing the bottleneck between the CPU and the GPU. We are proposing a method for improving the performance of parallel processing for real-time graphics rendering by separating the CPU operations (usually performed using a thread) into two parts: pure CPU operations and operations related to the GPU, and let them operate in parallel. This allows for maximizing the parallelism in processing the communication between the CPU and the GPU. Some experiments lead us to confirm that our method proposed in this paper can allow for faster graphics rendering. In addition to our method of using a dedicated thread for GPU related operations, we are also proposing an algorithm for balancing the graphics pipeline using the idle time due to the bottleneck. We have implemented the two methods proposed in this paper in our networked 3D game engine and verified that our methods are effective in real systems.

Recently, many researches for making more comfortable input device based on gaze detection have been vigorously performed in human computer interaction. However, these previous researches are difficult to be used in IPTV environment because these methods need additional wearing devices or do not work at a distance. To overcome these problems, we propose a new way of controlling IPTV interface by using a detected face and eye positions in single static camera. And although face or eyes are not detected successfully by using Adaboost algorithm, we can control IPTV interface by using motion vectors calculated by pyramidal KLT (Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi) feature tracker. These are two novelties of our research compared to previous works. This research has following advantages. Different from previous research, the proposed method can be used at a distance about 2m. Since the proposed method does not require a user to wear additional equipments, there is no limitation of face movement and it has high convenience. Experimental results showed that the proposed method could be operated at real-time speed of 15 frames per second. Wd confirmed that the previous input device could be sufficiently replaced by the proposed method.

The development methods which utilize OSSs have been tried as new alternative to solve limits of the previous software developments such as the quality of software, and time and cost of developments. Especially, small and medium companies are suffering from difficulty in applying large-scale development methodology whenever they develop softwares. Therefore, in the current situation that demand for small-scale development methodology is increasing, the methods of utilizing OSSs can become an efficient way to save costs and reduce a development period. Accordingly, analysis of open-source is no fixed procedure or method to utilize open-source for software developments in the field. In this thesis, to solve such problems, we propose the procedures and methods for identifying and selecting suitable open-source, and effective methods for improvement and integration through least modification on the basis of synthesis of existing researches and experiences in development projects. For selection of OSSs, we did identify correct requirements for the software to be developed, investigate the open-source just matching with such requirements, draw a candidate index, establish assessment criteria, and the consequently present a method to select OSSs. And, we deduced the validity and improvement of each detailed activity from practical application to an actual project and assessment.

Korea's overseas construction industry has been rather depressed by the weakened profitability as well as the sharp decrease of the market shares due to the lack of international competitiveness and the declined international market. There exist a lot of various risks in performing the overseas construction, and especially EPC projects, which entail complicated process from different parts, also require a sophisticated procurement and management skill. Subsequently, to survive in the competitive international market, we need to establish strategies to select potentially profitable projects at the initial stage of bidding process and to mitigate the high degree of risk exposure through contract negotiation and its adjustment. This research discusses the trend of environment in international construction markets. Then, it identifies the key factors that affect the profitability significantly through the structured surveys from 59 actual overseas projects, and it analyzes the key factors by using statistical methods. This research provides the profitability evaluation bases, with which overseas construction participants can forecast and analyze the risk more systematically, by eliciting profit-influencing factors using the result of statistical analysis, literature review and structuring their cause-and-effect relationships. The profitability casual hierarchy structure describes the profitability factors' hierarchy in details and their interrelationships. It also enables us to find out critical factors directly related to profitability aggravation through a qualitative and quantitative analysis. Ultimately, with this hierarchy structure as the base, the research will suggest how to develop the quantitative profitability forecasting model.

As the competition between companies are deepened, the number of companies adopting six sigma principles, which is one of the innovative management strategies, are increasing. According to this trend, the changes in both strategies and methodologies of six sigma are continuous. However, the evaluations and the management principles included in the process after the six sigma applications are insufficient, and the cooperation between the parties in the company is also not enough because the application process of six sigma is too complex and not efficient. In order to solve this problem, a research for developing the methodology which can learn about and do six sigma applications is so necessary, specifically for expanding the six sigma applications and introducing the participation of all company members. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to develop and present more efficient Six Sigma applied process by reducing the existing unnecessary steps in improvement one, by applying the examination method of wasteful elements on the potential factors, through analyzing the Six Sigma DMAIC applied case in the construction industry. The result of those application showed that the detection of potential factors using wasting elements was possible in measurement step and that it was possible for the improved process with reduced steps compared to existing process while to remain the outcomes. It is considered that the performance rate of Six Sigma project will be improved significantly because the reduction in the improvement step does not affect the improvement effect within the whole Six Sigma project.

The aim of this study is finding the optimal design parameters and the optimal operation variables of a reactive distillation column. Different from steady state optimization, dynamic optimization makes it possible considering operation ability as well as design problems at process design step. For performing dynamic optimization, dynamic simulation should be done first. If dynamic simulation is already finished, dynamic optimization can be performed with less effort than that of dynamic simulation.Reactive distillation systems involving reaction and separation in a single unit have the potential to reduce capital and operating costs, particularly when reaction have conversion constraint or when azeotropes exist making conventional separation difficult and expensive. This study here present work on the continuous distillation process, the homogeneous catalyzed esterification of methanol and acetic acid, the synthesis of methyl acetate. Based on an equilibrium stage model of a reactive distillation column a dynamic optimization problem was formulated and solved. And the results were verified by performing dynamic simulation and showing the variation of conversion and purity as the variation of the operation variables. As the results of dynamic optimization, this study found optimal feed ratio, reflux ratio and reboiler duty of this system. And as this study applied it to dynamic simulations the dynamic characteristics of a reactive distillation column are showed under optimal operating condition.
