The asymptotic convergence of a coupled dynamic system, which is motivated from infinite dimensional adaptive systems, is investigated. The convergence analysis is formulated in abstract Banch spaces and is shown to applicable to a broad class of infinite dimensional systems including adaptive identification and adaptive control. Particularly it is shown that if a uniquely existing solution is p-th power integrable, then the solution converges to zero asymptotically. The persistence of excitation(PE) of a signal which arises in an infinite dimensional adaptive system is investigated. The PE property is not completely known yet for infinite dimensional adaptive systems, however it should be investigated in relation to spatial variable, boundary conditions as well as time variable.

In this parer, an improved backoff algorithm is proposed by supplementing a multiple of persistence factor for IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN MAC. This algorithm is proposed to complement the shortcomings of the conventional BEB (Binary Exponential Backoff) algorithm which is used for retransmission to control a new contention window in DCF/EDCF MAC. In channel utilization, collision rate and Goodput viewpoint, we analysis the improved backoff algorithm and compared the result with that of the conventional algorithm In this result, we showed that the performance for PFA backoff algorithm is 10% higher than that for the conventional BEB algorithm when the number of station is 40.

통신 기술의 발달로 많은 통신기기들이 하나의 채널을 공유하여 사용하게 되었다 여러 통신기기가 채널을 공유하여 사용하므로 동시에 데이터를 전송하여 발생하는 충돌 가능성이 증가하였다 이러한 충돌로 인한 네트워크 성능의 저하를 방지하기 위하여 다양한 다중 접속(Multiple Access) 기술이 연구되고 있다. CSMA(Carrier Sense Multiple Access)는 다양한 다중 접속 기술의 기반이 되는 기술이다. CSMA는 nonpersistence, 1-persistence, p-persistence와 같이 다양한 전송 방식을 지원하기 때문에 여러 네트워크 환경에 널리 적용된다. 그러나 CSMA가 다양한 네트워크 환경에 적용이 가능하지만 네트워크의 빈번한 상태 변화를 고려하여 최적의 성능을 유지하지는 못한다. CSMA의 전송 방식들은 네트워크 환경에 따라 그 성능의 변화가 심하다 본 논문에서는 동적 네트워크 환경을 고려하여 성능을 향상시키기 위한 적응형 persistence 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, the model reference adaptive control (MRAC) of a flexible structure is investigated. Any mechanically flexible structure is inherently distributed parameter in nature, so that its dynamics are described by a partial, rather than ordinary, differential equation. The MRAC problem is formulated as an initial value problem of coupled partial and ordinary differential equations in weak form. The well-posedness of the initial value problem is proved. The control law is derived by using the Lyapunov redesign method on an infinite dimensional filbert space. Uniform asymptotic stability of the closed loop system is established, and asymptotic tracking, i. e., convergence of the state-error to zero, is obtained. With an additional persistence of excitation condition for the reference model, parameter-error convergence to zero is also shown. Numerical simulations are provided.

Displacement estimation is a crucial step in ultrasonic strain imaging. The displacement between a pre- and postcompression signal in the current data window is estimated by first shifting the postcompression signal by the displacement obtained in the previous data window to reduce their decorrelation and then determining the remaining part of the displacement through autocorrelation and conversion of phase difference into time delay. However, since strain image quality tends to vary with the amount of compression applied, we propose two new methods for enhancing strain image quality, i.e., displacement normalization and adaptive persistence. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments are carried out to acquire ultrasound data and produce strain images in real time under the application of quasi static compression. The experimental results demonstrate that the methods are quite effective in improving strain image quality and thus can be applied to implementing an ultrasound elasticity imaging system that operates in real time.

This paper deals with the robustness of a direct adaptive pole-placement control algorithm for continuous time plants with unmodeled dynamics. In this paper, least squares method is used for controller parameter adaptation and covariance matrix update equation is modified by normalizing signal to guarantee the boundedness of all signals in the closed loop system. In the proposed algorithm, no a priori knowledge is required and it is shown that persistence of excitation condition is required to ensure the stability of the closed loop system.

Increase of hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP)-based video popularity causes that broadband and Internet service providers' links transmit mainly multimedia content. Network planning, traffic engineering or congestion control requires understanding of the statistical properties of network traffic; therefore, it is desirable to investigate the characteristic of traffic traces generated, among others, by systems which employ adaptive bit-rate streaming. In our work, we investigate traffic originating from 120 client-server pairs, situated in an emulated laboratory environment, and multiplexed onto a single network link. We show that the structure of the traffic is distinct from the structure generated by first and second generation of HTTP video systems, and furthermore, not similar to the structure of general Internet traffic. The obtained traffic exhibits negative correlations, anti-persistence, and its distribution function is skewed to the right. Furthermore, we show that the traffic generated by clients employing the same or similar play-out strategies is positively correlated and synchronised (clustered), whereas traffic originated from different play-out strategies shows negative or no correlations.

In school PC labs or other educational purpose PC labs with a few dozens of PCs, computers are configured in a distributed architecture so that they are set up, maintained and upgraded separately. As an alternative to the distributed architecture, we can consider a thin-client computing environment. In a thin-client computing environment, client side devices provide mainly I/O functions with user friendly GUI and multimedia processing support whereas remote servers called terminal server provide computing power. In order to support many clients in the environment, a cluster of terminal servers can be configured. In this architecture, it is difficult due to the characteristics of terminal session persistence and different pattern of computing usage of users so that the utilization of terminal server resources becomes low. To overcome this disadvantage, we propose an adaptive terminal cluster where terminal servers ,ire partitioned into groups and a terminal server in a light-loaded group can be dynamically reassigned to a heavy-loaded group at run time. The proposed adaptive scheme is compared with a generic terminal service cluster and a group based non-adaptive terminal server cluster. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Recently, large-scale enterprise information systems are commonly based on the multi-tiered middleware or frameworks to support such requirements as functional reuse, heterogeneous system resources, and multiple platforms. However, these multi-tiered or distributed multi-platform architecture incurs the interoperability issue of the components and metadata among the middleware. This paper introduces the Simple Object Application Framework (SOAF) which supports heterogeneous resources and platform-independent component-based development, with the abstract programming style of the object-oriented frameworks and the XML-SOAP based component persistence mechanism.

Objectives : Illness behavior is defined as the persistence of an adaptive/maladaptive mode of perceiving, evaluating and responding to health status and symptoms according to the status. In a cognitive aspect, somatizing symptoms are regarded as being originated from distortions, including magnification and/or amplification, of perceiving, evaluating and responding to symptoms such as bodily sensations. That is somatization may be explained by maladaptive illness behavior. In this study, we tried to investigate differences of illness behavior in depressive patient according to the presence of somatization. Methods : We divided 45 patients who were diagnosed as depression with ICD-10 diagnostic criteria into two groups(somatizing and non-somatizing group) according to the somatization subscale of Korean Depression Scale and compared two groups in the differences of illness behavior using the Illness Behavior Questionnaire. Results : Somatizing group showed significantly higher scores than non-somatizing group on the disease affirmation subscale($6.79{\pm}2.08$ vs. 4.76, p=0.003) and the denial subscale($3.25{\pm}1.22$ vs. $2.10{\pm}1.41$, p=0.006). There were no significant differences between two groups on the general hypochondriasis subscale and the affective unstability subscale. In a logistic regression analysis, somatizing group also showed higher odds ratio (OR) scores on the disease affirmation subscale(OR=1.418, p=0.089) and the denial subscale(OR=1.880, p=0.083). Conclusion : The disease affirmation and denial may be a discriminative mechanism of somatization in depressive patients. These subscales of Illness Behavior Questionnare could be useful markers, and psychiatric illnesses with somatizing and depressive symptoms may be differentially diagnosed and be predicted through these subscales.
