With the increasing use of high-performance mobile devices such as smartphones, users have been able to connect to the Internet anywhere, anytime, so that Location Based Services(LBSes) have been popular among the users in order to obtain personalized information associated with their locations. The services have advanced to provide the information realistically and intuitively by adopting Augmented Reality(AR) technology, where the technology utilizes various sensors embedded in the mobile devices. However, the services have inherent problems due to the small screen size of the mobile devices and the complexity of the real world environment. Overlapping contents on a small screen and user's possible movement should be taken into consideration in displaying the icons on objects that block user's environment such as trees and buildings. The problems mainly happen when the services use only user's location and sensor data to calculate the position of the displayed information. In order to solve the problems, this paper proposes a method that applies street data extracted from a digital map. The method uses the street data as well as the location and direction data to determine contents that are placed on both sides of a virtual street which augments the real street. With scrolling the virtual street, which means a virtual movement, some information far away from the location of the user can be identified without user's actual movement. Also the proposed method is implemented for region "Aenigol", and the efficiency and usefulness of the method is verified.

By the advent of an era of digital convergence, the user-friendly DTV graphic user interface (GUI) techniques become very important because of the explosive consumption of DTV receiving modules. This paper describes the design and implementation of GUI of menu-driven type for the operation of HDTV MPEG module. The designed GUI is convenient and user-friendly. Main menu is created by forming a new window and is located on the top area of the window in the structure of 1 by 3 matrix. Thus main menu, sub-manu, and lower-level menu can be displayed on a screen. The menu-driven DTV GUI was acomplished by using new styles and icons.

High Altitude Platform network systems utilize Unmanned Aerial Vehicle as routers for ground node communication. For this purpose, geographical clustering of ground nodes must be required. In this paper, we assume mobile ground nodes over wide area and the clusters composed of ground nodes are identified. UAVs can be positioned at the point of centroid of clusters. The number of UAVs are derived from the area size and the number of ground nodes deployed in that area. From the simulation and application of clustering algorithms, we showed visual clustering results with dynamic variance of number of ground nodes.

This research studies and analyzes the current trends and the frequency allocation bands for digital cordless phone(DCP) in other county. From these results, we propose 1.7GHz & 2.4GHz as a effective candidate frequency band for domestic DCP. A proposed 1.7GHz is expected to introduce DECT system of Europe. Therefore it is necessary to make an analysis of interference between 1.7GHz band and an adjacent IMT-2000 band. In this paper, we proposed the allocation of channel for 1.7GHz on the basis of the analysis of frequency interference between 1.7GHz band and an adjacent IMT-2000 band.

In conversion of web pages for mobile devices, since existing web conversion systems eliminate unnecessary objects indiscriminately or only convert the layout of a page, the original intention of a web designer is spoiled. In spite of great advances in device technology, there still remain the problems of limited display sire and insufficient CPU power. In this paper, we propose an adaptation method that minimizes the loss of information and preserves the original intention of a web designer from the visual aspect. In image conversion, the proposed method extracts meaningful information from the background against conventional resizing methods, and performs layout-based conversion for the arrangement of image components. Experimental results show the efficiency of the method on the accuracy and the usability in comparison with existing methods.

We propose an optimization method for PCB assembly lines including multiple surface mounters. To increase the productivity of PCB assembly line, the component allocation, feeder assignment, and assembly sequence of each surface mounter should be optimized. The optimization Problem is formulated as an integer programming problem. We divide the overall problem into two hierarchical sub-problems: forward-path problem and backward-path problem. The clustering algorithm and branch-and-bound algorithm are applied to solve the forward-path problem. The assignment algorithm and connection algorithm are applied to solve the backward-path problem. Simulation results are presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed method.

In the AV system, stereophonic system has been studied to produce a realistic sound effect. The width of stereo AV system speakers is narrow, to have the spatial impression of sound effect, widening the sound image is necessary. The direction of sound image depends on the phase delay and the sound pressure level difference between two channels. In this paper, we analyze the relationship between the phase delay and the direction of the sound image relating to the frequency of sound source. Also we experimented to directionally localize the sound image of the pure tone with shifting phases and controling sound pressure love between two channels when the sound is reproduced by two speakers to make a spatial impression of sound effect.

Most stage directors and designers make use of controling and moving lots of stage set or device as a large automation device or machine to achieve dramatic effect in their performances. Specially, it is very important to use a programmable multi-chain hoist system which is able to move high speed as well as to lift heavy loads. This paper proposes a multi chain hoist servo system to lift or lower a heavy load of about l ton for public performances' stage. It is automatically operated, electrically driven by a control console with a PTP trajectory generation algorithm, a realtime network control algorithm, and 4 step sequential safety algorithm. The efficiency and performance of the developed system are verified through a series of experiments.

For teaching Advertisement Drawings practically, knowledge of Outdoor Advertisement Practice must be ahead of drawing practices. For understanding and practicing of various materials, treatments, manufacturing process and arrangement on drawings, it is desirable understanding outdoor manufacturing process, and making use of a mock-up. Actually, technical books about outdoor advertisement are very insufficient. As a teaching media based on the actual field for advertisement drawings, snapshots of the field and actual process and a mock-up of a signboard was prepared for practical application.

In this research, a design of mobile web magazine based on Kansei engineering is studied. Following the procedure of Kansei engineering, we executed user survey to discover latent emotion elements in mobile web magazine, which were 'attractive', 'open', and 'unique'. Corresponding design elements were found to be slide design, text layout, and proportion of image. The methodology of universal design was adopted to improves on those design elements so that the proposed design can be applicable to wide range of users. We could verify the potential of the proposed design method through expert interviews on the developed prototype mobile web magazine.
