A wireless sensor network consisting of a large number of nodes with limited battery power should minimize energy consumption at each node to prolong the network lifetime. To improve the sensitivity of wireless sensor networks, an efficient scheduling algorithm and energy management technology for minimizing the energy consumption at each node is desired. ill this paper, we propose energy-aware routing mechanism for maximum lifetime and to optimize the solution quality for sensor network maintenance and to relay node from its adjacent cluster heads according to the node"s residual energy and its distance to the base station. Proposed protocol may minimize the energy consumption at each node, thus prolong the lifetime of the system regardless of where the sink is located outside or inside the cluster. Simulation results of proposed scheme show that our mechanism balances the energy consumption well among all sensor nodes and achieves an obvious improvement on the network lifetime. To verify propriety using NS-2, proposed scheme constructs sensor networks adapt to current model and evaluate consumption of total energy, energy consumption of cluster head, average energy dissipation over varying network areas with HEED and LEACH-C.

When constructing various mobile networks including sensor networks, the problem of finding the layout or graph to interconnect the terminals or nodes of the network may come up. Providing a common scheme that can be applied to the kind of problems, and formulating the bounds of the run time and the result of the algorithm from the scheme, one may evaluate precisely the plan of constructing analogous network systems. This paper, dealing with EMST(Euclidean Minimum Spanning Tree) that represents such problems, provides the scheme for constructing EMST by parallel processing over distributed environments, and the ground for determining the maximum difference of the layout or the graph produced from the scheme: the difference from EMST. In addition, it provides the upper bound of the run time of the algorithm from the scheme.

Typical image features such as color, shape, and texture are used in content based image retrieved. Retrieval which uses only one image feature has little performance in case that the content of image is complex or database contains many images. So, many approaches for integrating these features have been studied. However, the problem of these approaches is how to appropriately weight the image features at query time. In this paper, we propose a new retrieval method using automatically weighted image features. We perform computer simulations in test database which consists of various kinds of images. The experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance than previous works, which use fixed weight for each feature mostly, in respect to several performance cvaluations such as precision vs recall, retrieval efficiency, and ranking measure.

This paper describes a novel internal clock generator, called duty cycle-corrected analog synchronous mirror delay (DCC-ASMD). The proposed circuit is well suited for dual edge-triggered systems such as double data-rate synchronous DRAM since it can achieve clock synchronization within two clock cycles with accurate duty cycle correction. To evaluate the performance of the proposed circuit, DCC-ASMD was designed using a $0.35\mu$m CMOS process technology. Simulation results show that the proposed circuit generates an internal clock having $50\%$ duty ratio within two clock cycles from the external clock having duty ratio range of $40\;\~\;60$.

To analyze influences under faults caused by a stator winding short and to evaluate an effectiveness of a diagnostic algorithm a faulty model for an inverter-driven permanent magnet synchronous motor is presented. Even though the conventional dq motor model obtained through the transformation of phase voltage model is widely used to analyze and control the motor, it can not be used in the analysis of a faulty motor since the 3-phase balanced condition is no longer hold under the fault caused by a stator winding short, and thus, it is very difficult to obtain motor input voltages from the pole voltage of an inverter. To overcome this problem, a faulty model for an inverter-driven permanent magnet synchronous motor is proposed by considering the line voltage of 3-phase variables. The effectiveness of the proposed faulty model is verified through comparative simulations and experiments using DSP TMS320F28335 and motor built to allow a partial short of inter-turn.

With the development of IT convergence technology and the construction of infrastructure for water leakage detection, the detection technology of damaged pileline's location and size is being spotlighted. The exhaustion of water resource due to the leakage of water supply facilities renders it urgent to detect water leakage effectively. In this paper, we proposed the water leakage detection monitoring simulation using the power spectrum analysis. We measured the reflected wave signal by the proposed water leakage detection monitoring simulation. The rate variability is calculated form the acquired reflected wave signal. And the power spectrum analysis using the Fast Fourier Transform is evaluated the correlation between the water leakage's size and the reflected wave. Ultimately, this paper suggests empirical simulation to verify the adequacy and the validity. Accordingly, the satisfaction and the quality of services will be improved the efficient management by supporting the real-time water leakage detection.

In Korea, riverbank filtration has drawn attention since 1990's as an alternative having potential to stably meet the ever-increasing water demand. Some cities located in the Nak-dong River Basin are currently supplying water through riverbank filtration. This research is on the application of riverbank filtration for stable water quality in Seoul. For this purpose, we have evaluated developable amount of water with riverbank filtration for the Han River. This paper focuses on the Kwangnaru site, which was selected through a systematic analysis in the companion paper. We have conducted groundwater modeling for a proposed system of wells and an artificial lake. In the Kwangnaru district, the river length to constitute a well system was identified to be about 1,200m, due to the topography and the field condition such as ecosystem preservation zone. After many design changes, it was found that the maximum developable amount of $23.36\;million\;m^3$/year could be obtained, when 16 pumping wells were built in every 80 meters along with an artificial lake upstream.

전국 주요 산단 지역에서 현재 유통되고 있는 화학물질의 스크리닝 수준에서의 생태 위해성 평가를 수행하고 체계적인 위해도 분석 시스템을 구축하기 위한 생태 위해성 예측 모형을 개발하였으며, 모형의 분석과 모니터링을 통하여 모형을 검증하고 수정, 보완하는 연구를 수행하였다. 전국 118개 공단중에서 10개의 산단 (시화반월, 전주, 대전, 대구, 청주, 울산, 구미, 여천, 대구 성서, 신평장림공단)을 대상 지역으로 하였고 이들 공단에서 사용되고 있는 약 1900 여종의 화학물질들의 물리화학적 특성 자료와 생태 독성값의 문헌치, 추정치를 포함한 database를 구축하였다. 모형 결과의 정확성을 높이기 위해서는 배출량의 정확한 산출이 필요하므로 본 연구에서는 유럽의 우선순위 선정 프로그램인 EURAM의 방법에 근거하여 화학물질의 산업 및 용도별 분류로부터 각각의 배출계수를 적용하여 사용량을 배출량으로 산출하는 방법을 이용하였다 구축된 database를 활용하여 산단별, 화학물질별 생태 위해도를 비교한 결과 어류 급성의 위해도는 울산>여천>대전의 순이었고, 물벼룩 급성의 위해도는 울산>여천>시화반월>청주의 순이었다. 울산을 제외한 대부분의 지역의 위해도는 1이하로 나타나 스크리닝 수준에서의 오염은 우려할 정도가 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 생태 위해성 프로그램의 validation을 위하여 대구 지역을 대상으로 문헌치 독성값을 위주로 하는 RQ가 0.1 이상인 물질들의 검출 가능성과 화학물질들의 특성을 파악하였고, Butylacrylate, Xylene, N,N-Dimethylformamlde, 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid dibutylester, 2-Amino-4-methylphenol, Toluene, 2,2-Oxybisethanol의 7가지 물질들을 분석대상물질로 선정하여 분석을 수행할 예정이다. 본 연구에서는 분석 대상 지역을 확대하여 모형의 신뢰성과 타당성을 확인하고 모형을 수정, 보완하여 생태 위해성 예측 프로그램의 신뢰도를 높이고자 한다.
