The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) will next be held in Seoul, Korea from August 13th to 21st 2014. The ICM, currently hosted by the International Mathematical Union, has a history spanning a period of one hundred years and is traditionally held every four years. Felix Klein has often been credited with formulating the concept of the ICM, however George Cantor not only initially propagated the idea of forming a mathematical society in Germany, but also proposed organizing an international mathematical union. This study has endeavored to investigate the early period of development of the ICM. Specifically, this paper has studied the development of early 20th century mathematics through changes in the formulaic language of the ICM, the number of participants, the number of presentations, the nationality of plenary speakers, and the changes in sessions.

A survey of the natural regeneration of the gallery forest at the Sao Bartolomeu river, Federal District - Brazil it was carry out. Plots of $100m^2$ let established the composition of the trees succession of one hectare. 4262 plants distributed in four classes according to the height were found. The phytosociological value of the classes was respectively 3,3 2,4 2,0 2,3 and through of them it was possible to identify the phytosociological position of the species. The results of the calculations of the relative index of the natural regeneration and value of importance shows that the most important species are Cheiloclinium cognatum A.C. Smith, Piptadenia communis Benth., Faramea cyanea M. Arg., Xylopia sericea St. Hil., Copeifera lansdorfii Desf., Cupania vernalis Camb., Matayba guianensis Aublet, Virola sebifera Aublet, Ocotea densiflora Meissn and Didimopanax morototoni (Aublet) Dcne et Pl.

Sign-language communication can be a useful way of exchanging message between people who using different languages. In this paper, we report an experimental survey on the construction of a Korean-Japanese sign-language communication system using 3D model. For real-time communication, we introduced an intelligent communication method and built the system as a client-server architecture on the Internet. A character model is stored previously in the clients and a series of animation parameters are sent instead of real image data. The input-sentence is converted into a series of parameters of Korean sign language or Japanese sign language at server. The parameters are transmitted to clients and used for generating the animation. We also employ the emotional expressions, variable frames allocation method, and a cubic spline interpolation for the purpose of enhancing the reality of animation. The proposed system is implemented with Visual $C^{++}$ and Open Inventor library on Windows platform. Experimental results show a possibility that the system could be used as a non-verbal communication means beyond the linguistic barrier.

In this paper, we propose an optimization scheme for a k-Nearest Neighbor(k-NN) query, which finds k objects closest to the query in the high dimensional feature vectors. The k-NN query is converted and processed into a range query based on the range that is likely to contain k data. In this paper, we propose an optimization scheme using DNN model to derive an optimal range that can reduce processing cost and accelerate search speed. The entire system of the proposed scheme is composed of online and offline modules. In the online module, a query is actually processed when it is issued from a client. In the offline module, an optimal range is derived for the query by using the DNN model and is delivered to the online module. It is shown through various performance evaluations that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing schemes.

For large scale VOD service, cluster servers are spotlighted to their high performance and low cost. A cluster server usually consists of a front-end node and multiple back-end nodes. Though increasing the number of back-end nodes can result in the more QoS streams for clients, the possibility of failures in back-end nodes is proportionally increased. The failure causes not only the stop of all streaming service but also the loss of the current playing positions. In this paper, when a back-end node becomes a failed state, the recovery mechanisms are studied to support the unceasing streaming service. For the actual VOD service environment, we implement a cluster-based VOD servers composed of general PCs and adopt the parallel processing for MPEG movies. From the implemented VOD server, a video block recovery mechanism is designed on parity algorithms. However, without considering the architecture of cluster-based VOD server, the application of the basic technique causes the performance bottleneck of the internal network for recovery and also results in the inefficiency CPU usage of back-end nodes. To address these problems, we propose a new failure recovery mechanism based on the pipeline computing concept.

A cluster server usually consists of a front end node and multiple backend nodes. Though increasing the number of bookend nodes can result in the more QoS(Quality of Service) streams for clients, the possibility of failures in backend nodes is proportionally increased. The failure causes not only the stop of all streaming service but also the loss of the current playing positions. In this paper, when a backend node becomes a failed state, the recovery mechanisms are studied to support the unceasing streaming service. The basic techniques are hewn as providing very high speed data transfer rates suitable for the video streaming. However, without considering the architecture of cluster-based VOD server, the application of these basic techniques causes the performance bottleneck of the internal network for recovery and also results in the inefficiency CPU usage of backend nodes. To resolve these problems, we propose a new failure recovery mechanism based on the pipeline computing concept.

Automatic transfer equipments of manufacturing and process line trend toward big size as LCD glass is big size, heavy weight. The conventional stocker uses rotational motor and mechanical power converter device as travel axis of stocker crane and then frequent maintenances by complex structure and mechanical friction are required. Also it has problem to minimize the particle generation. To solve these problems, this paper verified the performance of permanent magnet(PM) excited transverse flux linear motor(TFLM) that is big power density per unit volume applied for travel axis of 7 generation stocker that is being big size, high power, long distance by the experiment based on proposed control algorithm, controller and power converter device.

폴리아크릴로나트릴(PAN)계 탄소섬유 및 안정화 PAN섬유를 사용하여 제조한 페놀수지 복합재료의 열주기 산화저항성에 섬유표면의 인산코팅 유.무가 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 각 복합재료의 열주기 산화저항성은 열중량분석기의 원리를 응용하여, 공기중에서 hot zone과 cold zone을 주기적으로 반복이동하는 열충격조건에 노출되면서 초래되는 복합재료의 중량변화를 측정하여 비교하였다. 시험변수로는 hot zone에 노출된 온도, 시간 및 싸이클횟수를 선정하였다. 이 시험방법은 비교적 단순하며, 작은 크기의 시편으로도 가능하고, 중량변화가 온-라인 모니터에서 직접 감지되므로 데이타의 신뢰성이 \ulcorner다. 각 시험조건에서 인산코팅한 섬유를 사용한 복합재료가 그렇지 않은 재료보다 고온에서의 높은 산화저항성 때문에 우수한 열주기저항성을 보여 주었다. 또한 인산코팅의 존재 여부가 열주기시험 후의 탄소섬유-페놀수지 및 안정화 PAN섬유-페놀수지 복합재료의 미세구조에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.

Non-molding and welding line happen by the assembly of gas at the connector terminal. There is not good phenomenon of burr by increasing the over injection pressure, the temperatures of die and resin to prevent from them. Therefore, the connector mold to apply the vacuum molding system is developed in this study. The vacuum pressure is controlled systematically with the optimum conditions in the important ingredients of injection molding that are the temperatures of melting resin and die and cooling condition. The badness in charging is cleared by making a vacuum to non-charging part of the deep bottom part of each cavity. And the vacuum system to reduce the cycle time is applied as the study envelopment of molding work. So, the good product and the productivity improvement can be obtained in this study.

In this paper describes image enhancement technique using deconvolution processing for ultrasonic nondestructive testing. When flaws are detected fur B-scan or C-scan, blurring effect which is caused by the moving intervals of transducer degrades the quality of images. In addition, acquisited images suffer form speckle noise which is caused by the ultrasonic components reflected from the grain boundary of material (1,2). The deconvolution technique can restore sharp peak value or clean image from blurring signal or image. This processing is applied to C-scan image obtained from known specimen. Experimental results show that the deconvolution processing contributes to get improved the quality of C-scan images.
