This paper introduces a novel and fast synthesizing method for 3D motions of quadrupedal animals that uses only a small set of motion capture data. Unlike human motions, animal motions are relatively difficult to capture. Also, it is a challenge to synthesize continuously changing animal motions in real time because animals have various gait types according to their speed. The algorithm proposed herein, however, is able to synthesize continuously varying motions with proper limb configuration by using only one single cyclic animal motion per gait type based on the biologically driven Froude number. During the synthesis process, each gait type is automatically determined by its speed parameter, and the transition motions, which have not been entered as input, are synthesized accordingly by the optimized asynchronous motion blending technique. At the start time, given the user's control input, the motion path and spinal joints for turning are adjusted first and then the motion is stitched at any speed with proper transition motions to synthesize a long stream of motions.

This paper presents a hybrid pulse width modulation (PWM) method under low switching frequency conditions based on space vector PWM (SVPWM) and selective harmonic eliminated PWM (SHEPWM), which use asynchronous carrier modulation SVPWM at low frequency, and SHEPWM at high frequency, a square wave after rated conditions. A transitive strategy is proposed to realize a smooth transition of individual modes including SVPWM, SHEPWM and square waves. Experimental results confirm this hybrid modulation method and their transition are reasonable and proper.

A visual concurrent programming environment, called ESTGVP is designed and implemented, which is easy to understand, highly portable, and can represent parallel behaviors. For our purpose, a conventional state transition graph is extended so as to enable both of synchronous and asynchronous parallel operations. We call it extended state transition graph (ESTG). ESTGVP uses the ESTG and texts for programming, and makes it easy programming sequential and parallel behaviors. Also, it is easy to understand the control structure of a program because ESTGVP is a visual programming environment based on the graph. ESTGVP is written in Tel language and thus it is highly portable on various operating systems. It consists of three major components; edition, transformation and execution. If necessary, ESTG can be transformed into C or Tel language, and its execution is based on Tel.

3D human pose estimation is widely applied in various fields, including action recognition, sports analysis, and human-computer interaction. 3D human pose estimation has achieved significant progress with the introduction of convolutional neural network (CNN). Recently, several researches have proposed the use of multiview approaches to avoid occlusions in single-view approaches. However, as the number of cameras increases, a 3D pose estimation system relying on a CNN may lack in computational resources. In addition, when a single host system uses multiple cameras, the data transition speed becomes inadequate owing to bandwidth limitations. To address this problem, we propose a distributed real-time 3D pose estimation framework based on asynchronous multiple cameras. The proposed framework comprises a central server and multiple edge devices. Each multiple-edge device estimates a 2D human pose from its view and sendsit to the central server. Subsequently, the central server synchronizes the received 2D human pose data based on the timestamps. Finally, the central server reconstructs a 3D human pose using geometrical triangulation. We demonstrate that the proposed framework increases the percentage of detected joints and successfully estimates 3D human poses in real-time.

There are no standard language for the specification of speed-independent circuits because existing specification methods are designed appropriately to each synthesis methodology. This paper suggests a method of using VHDL, a standard hardware description language, for the specification and synthesis of speed-independent circuits. Because VHDL is a multi-purpose language, we define a subset of VHDL which can be used for the synthesis. We transform the VHDL description into a signal transition graph and then synthesize speed-independent circuits by using a previous synthesis algorithm which uses a signal transition graph as the specification method. We suggest a systematic transformation method which transforms each VHDL statement into a partial signal transition graph and then merges them into a signal transition graph. This work is a step towards to the development of an integrated framework in which we can utilizes the existing CAD tools based on VHDL. Also, this work will enable a easier migration of the current circuit designers into asynchronous circuit design.

A simplified and effective space vector pulse-width modulation (SVPWM) algorithm with two and three levels for three-phase voltage-source converters is proposed in this study. The proposed SVPWM algorithm only uses several linear calculations on three-phase modulated voltages without any complicated trigonometric calculations adopted by conventional SVPWM. This simplified SVPWM also avoids choosing the vector sector required by conventional SVPWM. A two-level overmodulation scheme is integrated into the proposed two-level SVPMW to generate the output voltage that increases from a linear region to a six-step state with a smoothly linear transition characteristic and a simple overmodulation process without a lookup table and complicated nonlinear functions. The three-level SVPWM with a proportional-integral controller effectively balances the neutral point potential of the neutral point clamped converter. Results from the simulation in MATLAB/Simulink and the experiment based on a digital signal processor are provided to clearly demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed strategies.

We have performed quantum mechanical calculations to study the geometries and binding energies of biologically important, cyclic hydrogen-bonded complexes, such as formic acid + $H_2O$, formamidine + $H_2O$, formamide + $H_2O$, formic acid dimer, formamidine dimer, formamide dimer, formic acid + formamide, formic acid + formamidine, formamide + formamidine, and barrier heights for the double proton transfer in these complexes. Various ab initio, density functional theory, multilevel methods have been used. Geometries and energies depend very much on the level of theory. In particular, the transition state symmetry of the proton transfer in formamidine dimer varies greatly depending on the level of theory, so very high level of theory must be used to get any reasonable results.

Recently, the telecommunication network is in a transition toward the BcN (Broadband convergence Networks) that integrates the Internet, the telecommunication and the broadcasting. The BcN makes it possible to provide of 4he third-party application by using the Open API The Parlay X API is an example of the Open API and the Parlay X API is grafted in the Web Service and is abstracted from the Parlay API. So, the Parlay X API does not only have advantages of a Web Service, but also disadvantages of the Web Service. The main disadvantage of the Web Service is that it does not support the any QoS mechanism. In this paper, we propose the architecture that solves the reliability among the QoS issues for the Web Service. The proposed mechanism adopts the Asynchronous architecture for the reliable Web Service and improves the performance of the retransmission between the client and the server using the expected response time. We perform the performance evaluation through the simulation in older to compare with the existing mechanism. Consequently, we can confirm that the performance of the proposed mechanism performs better than the existing mechanism.

Broadband network based on the Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM) concept are becoming the target technology for the emerging Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network(B-ISDN). Since B-ISDN is very complex and requites a great amount of investment, optimum design and performance analysis of such systems are very important. Simulation can be widely used to analyze and examine the broadband network behavior. However, for the complicated system like broadband networks it is extremely difficult and time-consuming to develop a complete model for simulation. In this paper, an object-oriented modeling approach for the broadband network simulation is presented for the effective and efficient modeling. Object-oriented approaches can provide a good structuring capability for complicated simulation models and facilitate the development of reusable and extensible simulation models. We have developed an object-oriented model which consists of object model and behavior model. In the object mode., the components of the broadband network and both constant bit rate(CBR) and variable bit rate(VBR) traffic types of call level, burst level, and cell level are modeled as object classes. In the behavior model, the dynamic features for each object class are represented using the state transition diagram. It has been shown by illustration that objectoriented modeling is an effective tool for modeling the complicated B-ISDN.

This paper proposes an efficient channel assignment method for real-time service in the IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN system, and analyzes the supportability to real-time service and the channel utilzation of that through computer simulations. The improved MAC(Medium Access Control) protocol employing the proposed channel assignment method achieved good throughput over contention period as well as contention-free period by making real-time terminals transmit the information about their desiring value before starts of data transmissions. For performance evaluation of the proposed method, a simulation analyzing the variation of allocated bandwidths to terminals using real-time service and their buffer sizes wasexecuted. Real-time data traffics was modeled s 7-stae transition VBR sources, and asynchronous data traffics modeled as Poisson processes. In the simulation, the proposed method showed smaller variation of the bandwidth of each terminal and samller buffer size than the existing method, and also recorded good throughput over contention period.
