Settlement at reclamation area caused by secondary compression should be considered using spatial evaluating method because the thickness of consolidation layer varies at every location. Probabilistic method can be implemented to evaluate uncertainty of spatial distribution of secondary compression. This study spatially evaluated mean and standard deviation of secondary compression in the overall analyzing region using spatial distribution of consolidation thickness estimated by ordinary kriging method and statistical values of soil properties. And then, the area where secondary compression exceeds a design criterion at the specific time was evaluated using probabilistic method. It was observed that the area exceeding the design criterion increased as the variability of $C_{\alpha}/(1+e_o)$ increased or the probabilistic design criterion 0: decreased. It is considered that the probabilistic method can be used for the geotechnical design of soft ground when a probabilistic design criterion is established in the specification.

H.264/AVC 비디오 압축 표준은 압축 효율을 높이기 위해 다양한 크기의 블록을 사용하여 화면 사이의 움직임 예측을 수행한다. 세밀한 움직임 예측으로 인해 기존의 동영상 표준보다 압축 효율을 높일 수 있었지만, 복잡도도 증가하는 단점이 있다. 따라서, H.264/AVC의 고속 움직임 추정 기법은 필수적이다. H.264/AVC에서 사용하는 움직임 예측 방법은 고정된 탐색 영역 안에서 모든 정수 화소 단위로 최적의 움직임 벡터를 계산한다. 불필요한 정수 화소까지 움직임을 예측하므로 계산양이 증가한다. 본 논문에서는 움직임 벡터의 시간적 상관도와 공간적 상관도를 이용하여 가변적으로 탐색 영역의 크기를 조절하는 방법과 적응적인 초기 시작점 결정 방법을 제안했다. 현재 매크로블록과 참조 화면 사이의 거리를 고려하여 시간적 상관도와 공간적 상관도의 탐색 영역 비중을 가변적으로 조절했다. 또한 참조 화면과 현재 매크로블록 사이의 거리가 멀어질수록 초기 시작점의 정확도를 높이기 위해 초기 시작점을 예측 움직임 벡터와 이전 참조 화면에서 결정된 최적의 움직임 벡터의 평균으로 결정했다. 제안하는 방법은 기존의 전 영역 탐색 방법과 유사한 부호화 성능을 보이면서 움직임 예측 시간이 평균 53.98% 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

This study carried out to evaluate the quality deviation according to Premixed and Non-Premixed cement for normal and high strength concrete using blast furnace slag and fly ash. The results of experiment are founded that concrete using premixed cement have more performance than non-premixed cement at a point of view for the quality deviations both strength and Chloride ion diffusion. Therefore, it is desirable that premixed cement should be used to decrease strength deviation in high strength concrete and durability deviation in normal strength concrete.

There are loss of lives and properties in many areas of the basin of the Nak-Dong river by the unusual weather and the localized heavy rain recently, and many difficulties of levee construction for prevention of disasters by acquisition of material and expensive transportation. In this research, The factors and causes which affect the strength through laboratory tests about the cemented sand that is mixed a few portland cement and sand of Nak-Dong river bed was researched closely. For providing the fundamental data which is needed in design and analysis of levee material, the compaction test and the standard triaxial compression test etc was conducted., analyzed compression strength and characteristic of stress-strain behavior in which the influence of cement content.

As the computing and network technique move rm and spread widly, the usage of multimedia application becomes in general while the usage of text based application becomes low. Especially the application which treats the streaming media such as video or movie, one of multimedia data, holds a majority in the usage of computing. MPEG, one of the typical compression standard of streaming media, provides very high compression ratio so that general users could be close to the streaming media with easy usage. However, the encoding of MPEG requires lots of computing power and time. In the paper, we design and implement a parallel MPEG encoder with MPI in cluster envrionment to reduce the encoding time of MPEG.

최근 컴퓨터와 네트워크 기술이 빠르게 발전하고 널리 보급되면서 텍스트 위주로 작업을 하던 어플리케이션들의 비중이 낮아지고 멀티미디어 데이터를 처리하는 어플리케이션들의 비중이 점차 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 다양한 멀티미디어들 중에서 영화같은 동영상 멀티미디어를 다루는 프로그램들은 멀티미디어 응용 어플리케이션들 중에서 큰 비중을 차지하고 있으며 실생활에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 대표적인 동영상 압축 표준인 MPEG의 경우 매우 높은 압축률을 제공하여 일반 사용자들도 손쉽게 동영상 데이터를 접하고 사용할 수 있는 기회를 제공한다. 하지만 MPEG 인코딩은 매우 많은 컴퓨팅 자원과 시간을 요하는 작업이다. 본 연구에서는 동영상 데이터를 인코딩 하는데 소요되는 시간과 자원을 감소시키기 위해 클러스터환경에서 MPI를 이용하여 동영상 압축 표준인 MPEG-2 기반의 Parallel Encoder를 설계 및 구현하였다.

In this paper, we introduce a novel entropy coding method to improve the JPEG image compression standard. JPEG is one of the most widely used image compression methods due to its high visual quality for the compression ratio, and especially because of its high efficiency. Based on the observation that the blocks of data fed to the entropy coder usually contain consecutive sequences of numbers with small magnitudes including 0, 1, and -1, we separate those sequences from the data and encode them using a method dedicated to those values. We further improve the compression ratio based on the fact that this separation makes the lengths of blocks much shorter. In our experiment, we show that the proposed method can outperform the JPEG standard preserving its visual characteristics.

It is necessary to study more integrated and objective method of urban compactness evaluation. Accordingly, the author examined precedent study and references related to the theory of compact city with the aim of deducing the urban planning factors from them. And then, these factors are objectified through the survey and interview with experts, and each of the factors is given a weighting by the AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) Method. Based on these evaluation model, the urban compactness of Korean Metropolitan Cities such as Busan, Incheon, Daegu, Gwangju, Daejeon, Ulsan, are analyzed their relative gap. The result of this study, as a foundational data for decision-making on the urban policy, could be useful for compact city planning such as regeneration of old town center etc.

When JPEG, a standard of stopped image compression, is high compressed, the image is severely blocked. Since JPEG performs compression after taking DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform). It has a defect that the quality of image becomes low with aliasing in the case of high compression. Though transformation cipher method can have high compression rate, flame nay happen to quality of image by transformation and reverse transformation. In this paper, we use wavelet transform and fractal theory in order to solve these problems. After we apply these two methods to stopped image, we can get some good results, improvement of speed and compression rate, and elimination of blocking appearance. Besides, we show quality of restoration image is better than established one.

V.42bis, a type of LZW(Lempel-Ziv-Welch) code, is well-known as theinter national standard is asynchronous data compression. In this paper, we analyze several undesirable phenomena arising from the application of v.42bis to high speed data transmission, and we propose a modified technique to overcome them. the proposed technique determines the proper size of the dictionary, one of important factors affecting the compression ratio, and improves the method of dictionary generation for a higher compression ratio. Furthermore, we analyze the problem of excessive mode changes and solve it to a certain degree by adjusting the threshold for mode change. By doing this, we can achieve smiller variation of the compression ratio in time. This improvement chtributes to easier and better design and control of the buffer in high speed data transmission.
