This paper presents an efficient heuristic algorithm to avoid crosstalk which effects to delay of CMOS digital circuit by downsizing and upsizing of Gate. The proposed algorithm divide into two step, step1 performs downsizing of gate, step2 performs upsizing, so that avoid adjacent aggressor to critical path in series. The proposed algorithm has been verified on LGSynth91 benchmark circuits and Experimental results show an average 8.64% Crosstalk Avoidance effect. This result proved new potential of proposed algorithm.

Cached data management of clients is required to guarantee the correctness of client's applications. There are two categories of cache consistency algorithms : detection-based and avoidance-based cache consistency algorithm. Detection?.based schemes allow stale data access and then check the validity of any cached data before they ran be allowed to commit. In contrast, under avoidance-based algorithms, transactions never have the opportunity to access stale data. In this paper, we propose a new avoidance-based cache consistency algorithm make use of version. The proposed method maintains the two versions at clients and servers, so it has no callback message and it can be reduced abort ratio of transactions compare with the single-versioned algorithms. In addition to, the proposed method can be decreased cache miss using by mixed invalidation and propagation for remote update action.

Among drone autonomous flight technologies, obstacle avoidance is a very important technology that can prevent damage to drones or surrounding environments and prevent danger. Although the LiDAR sensor-based obstacle avoidance method shows relatively high accuracy and is widely used in recent studies, it has disadvantages of high unit price and limited processing capacity for visual information. Therefore, this paper proposes an obstacle avoidance algorithm for drones using camera-based PPO(Proximal Policy Optimization) reinforcement learning, which is relatively inexpensive and highly scalable using visual information. Drone, obstacles, target points, etc. are randomly located in a learning environment in the three-dimensional space, stereo images are obtained using a Unity camera, and then YOLov4Tiny object detection is performed. Next, the distance between the drone and the detected object is measured through triangulation of the stereo camera. Based on this distance, the presence or absence of obstacles is determined. Penalties are set if they are obstacles and rewards are given if they are target points. The experimennt of this method shows that a camera-based obstacle avoidance algorithm can be a sufficiently similar level of accuracy and average target point arrival time compared to a LiDAR-based obstacle avoidance algorithm, so it is highly likely to be used.

In this paper, we will introduce the system that can control multiple vehicles on the road through Single Board Computers and V2I (Vehicle-To-Infrastructure). Also, we will propose the group evasive maneuver decision algorithm, which plays a critical role in deciding whether the vehicles in the system have to conduct evasive maneuvers to avoid obstacles on the road. In order to test this system, we have utilized Wi-Fi and TCP/IP for establishing the communication between multiple vehicles and the relay server, and observed their driving states on the road with obstacles. During the experiments, we have discovered that our original decision algorithm possesses high failure rate when there is frequency interference in ISM (Industrial Scientific Medical) band. In order to reduce this failure rate, we have implemented the data transition detector. This paper will focus on how the use of data transition detector can affect the reliability of the system under the frequency interference of ISM band. If this technology is improved and applied in the field, we will effectively deal with such dangerous situations as multiple collision accidents through vehicle-to-vehicle communication or vehicle-to-infrastructure communication. Furthermore, this can be applied to the autonomous driving technologies. This can be used as the reference data for the development of the similar system.

In this paper, we present a navigation control algorithm for mobile robots that move in environments having static and moving obstacles. The algorithm includes a global and a local path-planning algorithm that uses $D^*$ search algorithm, a fuzzy logic for determining the immediate level of danger due to collision, and a fuzzy logic for evaluating the required wheel velocities of the mobile robot. To apply the $D^*$ search algorithm, the two-dimensional space that the robot moves in is decomposed into small rectangular cells. The algorithm is verified by performing simulations using the Python programming language as well as by using the dynamic equations for a two-wheeled mobile robot. The simulation results show that the algorithm can be used to move the robot successfully to reach the goal position, while avoiding moving and unknown static obstacles.

로봇의 실시간 장애물 회피 방법은 연구되어 왔고 실행되어 왔다. 이러한 방법을 vector field histogram(VFH)라 하며 이러한 방법은 알려져 있지 않는 장애물의 발견과 장애물과의 충돌을 피하는 동시에 목표점으로의 로봇의 이동을 위한 알고리즘이다. The vector field histogram(VFH)방법은 world model로 이차원 Cartesian histogram grid를 이용하였다. VFH 방법은 Vehicle을 원하는 데로 컨트롤하기 위한 과정으로 두 단계 데이터 줄이는 과정이다. Histogram grid 의 첫 번째 단계는 로봇의 순간위치를 구성하기 위한 일 차원 polar histogram에 포함된 각 섹터의 값은 polar obstacle density(POD)로 방향을 표시한다.(중략)

This paper presents a new robot motion planning method for moving obstacle avoidance. To consider the mobility of a moving obstacle, we define virtual distance function(VDF) between the robot and the obstacle. At each sampling time, we use the VDF to construct an artificial potential, considering the motion of obstacles. The robot moves according to the repulsive and attractive force vector induced by the artificial potential function. The proposed algorithm can be driven the robot to avoid moving obstacles in real time. Some simulation studies show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

USNs (Ubiquitous Sensor Networks) such as IEEE 802.15.4 ZigBee network share ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) frequency band with WiFi networks. Once both networks operate in a region, packet collision may happen because of frequency overlapping. To assure this possibility, we conducted experiments where WiFi and ZigBee communication networks had been installed in an area. As a result of the test, successful data transmission rate were reduced due to the frequency overlapping between a WiFi communication channel and a ZigBee communication band. To cope with this problem, we propose a collision avoidance algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, if frequency collision is sensed, new communication channel with different frequency band is allocated to each node. Performance of the proposed frequency collision avoidance algorithm was tested and the results were described.
