  • Extremophilic microorganisms have established a diversity of molecular strategies in order to survive in extreme conditions. Biocatalysts isolated by these organisms are termed extremozymes, and possess extraordinary properties of salt allowance, thermostability, and cold adaptivity. Extremozymes are very resistant to extreme conditions owing to their great solidity, and they pose new opportunities for biocatalysis and biotransformations, as well as for the development of the economy and new line of research, through their application. Thermophilic proteins, piezophilic proteins, acidophilic proteins, and halophilic proteins have been studied during the last few years. Amylases, proteases, lipases, pullulanases, cellulases, chitinases, xylanases, pectinases, isomerases, esterases, and dehydrogenases have great potential application for biotechnology, such as in agricultural, chemical, biomedical, and biotechnological processes. The study of extremozymes and their main applications have emerged during recent years.

  • Wide operating range and speed control is needed for wind power generating and a Doubly Fed Induction Generator(DFIG) has good adaptivity for that purpose. This paper deals with the speed and power control using the Grid connected DFIG in the super-synchronous speed regions, by controlling frequency and voltage fed to the rotor. Power flow of the DFIG and steady-state algebraic equations of the equivalent circuit are analyzed. For the speed control analysis, torque simulation is performed whereby the different slip between operating motor driving frequency and synchronous frequency of M-G system applied. To keep the output rating of the generator, the exciting frequency and voltage attenuation are applied.

  • In this paper, a fuzzy control technique using adjustable scale factors and Lyapunov Function for the precise position control of DC servo system is introduced. The suitable scale factors were selected and the stable control input using the stability theory of Lyapunov function cam be applied. Therefore, the controlled system have the robustness against disturbances and can be stabilized because of reinforced adaptivity. This proposed fuzzy controller is implemented on a 80586 micro-computer which have of fuzzy inference routine part, manipulating part of scale factors and DT-2801 data aquisition board.

  • The present work is concerned with the development of a procedure for adaptive computations of shear localization problems. The maximum jump of equivalent strain rates across element boundaries is proposed as a simple error indicator based on interpolation errors, and successfully implemented in the adaptive mesh refinement scheme. The time step is controlled by using a parameter related to the Lipschitz constant, and state variables in target elements for refinements are transferred by $L_2$-projection. Consistent tangent moduli with a proper updating scheme for state variables are used to improve the numerical stability in the formation of shear bands. It is observed that the present adaptive mesh refinement procedure shows an excellent performance in the simulation of shear localization problems.

  • In this paper, we propose a temporal adaptive tranform 3D SBC coder with motion compensation, exploiting redundancy in the temporal domain. We propose a temporal adaptivity measure, by which the R-D optimal temporal transform can be chaosen. The base temporal subband frame is coded using H.261-like MC-DCT coder, while the higher temporal subband frames are coded using the 2D adaptive wavelet packet bases, considering the various energy distribution which results from the temporal variation. In encoding the subbands, we employ adaptive scanning methods, uniform step-size quantization with VLC, and coded/not-coded flag reduction technique using the quadtree structure. From the simulation results, the proposed adaptive 3D subband coder shows about 0.29~3.14 dB gain over the H.261 and the fixed 3D subband coder techniques.

  • A multitude of overlay network designs for resilient routing, multicasting, quality of service, content distribution, storage, and object location have been proposed. Overlay networks offer several attractive features, including ease of deployment, flexibility, adaptivity, and an infrastructure for collaboration among hosts. In this paper, we explore cooperation among co-existing, possibly heterogeneous, overlay networks. We discuss a spectrum of cooperative forwarding and information sharing services, and investigate the associated scalability, heterogeneity, and security problems. Motivated by these services, we design Synergy, a utility-based overlay internetworking architecture that fosters overlay cooperation. Our architecture promotes fair peering relationships to achieve synergism. Results from Internet experiments with cooperative forwarding overlays indicate that our Synergy prototype improves delay, throughput, and loss performance, while maintaining the autonomy and heterogeneity of individual overlay networks.

  • The main drawback of “classical”fuzzy systems is the inability to design and maintain their database. To overcome this disadvantage many types of extensions adding the adaptivity property to those systems were designed. This paper deals with one of them a new hybrid adaptation structure, called gradient-incremental adaptive fuzzy controller connecting gradient-descent methods with the so-called self-organizing fuzzy logic controller designed by Procyk and Mamdani. The aim is to incorporate the advantages of both Principles. This controller was implemented and tested on the system of LEGO robots. The results and comparison to a ‘classical’(non-adaptive) fuzzy controller designed by a human operator are also shown here.

  • This paper presents a new classified vector quantization (VQ) technique using a neural network model in the transform domain. Prior to designing a codebook, the proposed approach extracts class features from a set of images using self-organizing feature map (SOFM) that has the pattern recognition characteristics and the same as VQ objective. Since we extract the class features from the training images unlike previous approaches, the reconstructed image quality is improved. Moreover, exploiting the adaptivity of the neural network model makes our approach be easily applied to designing a new vector quantizer when the processed image characteristics are changed. After the generalized BFOS algorithm allocates the given bits to each class, codebooks of each class are also generated using SOFM for the maximal reconstructed image quality. In experimental results using monochromatic images, we obtained a good visual quality in the reconstructed image. Also, PSNR is comparable to that of other classified VQ technique and is higher than that of JPEG baseline system.
