The applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are progressively adopting for various smart home services such as home automation, controlling smart home household appliances, constrained application services in a smart home, etc. However, enabling a seamless and ubiquitous WSN communication between the smart home appliances is still a challenging job. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a smart home control system using an Actuator based ZigBee networking (AZNET). The working of the proposed system is further divided into three phases, 1) an interference avoidance system is adopted to mitigate the effect of interference caused due to the co-existence of IEEE 802.11x based wireless local area networks (WLAN) and WSN, 2) a sensor-based smart light control system is used to fulfill the light requirement in the smart home using the sunlight with light source, and 3) an autonomous home management system is used to regulate the usage time of the electronic appliances in the smart home. The smart is tested in real time environment to use the sunlight with light sources in a various time of the day. Similarly, the performance of the proposed smart home is verified through simulation using C# programming language. The results and analysis revealed that the proposed smart home is less affected by the interference and efficient in reducing the energy consumption of the appliances available in the smart home scenario.

현재까지 개발되어 있는 많은 이동에이전트 시스템들이 웹과의 연동을 고려하고 있으며, 웹서버들 또한 향후에 이동에이전트를 지원할 것을 고려하고 있다. 그러나 현재로서는 근본적으로 클라이언트/서버 구조를 가지고 있는 웹프로그래밍과 프로그램 코드의 자치적인 이동이라는 특징을 가진 이동에이전트 프로그래밍을 통합하여 정보시스템을 개발하는 방법이 명확히 정립되어 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 첫째, 청상의 이동에이전트 프로그래밍 모델을 제시하므로서 웹프로그래밍과 이동에이전트 프로그래밍을 통합할 수 있는 방법을 명확히 하였다. 둘째, 웹프로그래밍과 이동에이전트 프로그래밍 모두에 많이 쓰이고 있는 자바언어의 API를 개발하므로서, 웹상의 이동에이전트 프로그래밍에 사용할 수 있도록 하였다. 셋째, W3C에서 자바로 개발한 Jigsaw 웹서버에 이동에이전트의 실행환경을 제공하기 위한 모듈을 추가하고 테스트하므로서 제안하는 모델의 유용성을 보였다.

In 1964, Susumu Ohno, an evolutionary biologist, hypothesized that the size of X chromosome was conserved in mammalian evolution, and that this was based on chromosomal length. Today, unlike Ohno's method which was based on estimated lengths, we know the exact lengths of some mammalian sequences. The aim of this study was to reanalyze Ohno's hypothesis. In mammalian species, variation in the length of the X chromosome is greater than in the autosomes; however, this variation is not statistically significant. This means that differences in chromosomal length occur equally in the X chromosome and in the autosomes. Interspersed nuclear elements and genetic rearrangements were analyzed to maintain the same variance between the length of the X chromosome and the autosomes. The X chromosome contained fewer short interspersed elements (SINEs) (0.90 on average); however, it did contain more long interspersed elements (LINEs) than did autosomes (1.56 on average). An overall correlation of LINEs and SINEs with genetic rearrangements was observed; however, synteny breaks were more closely associated with LINEs in the autosomes, and with SINEs in the X chromosome. These results suggest that the chromosome-specific activities of LINEs and SINEs result in the same variance between the lengths of the X chromosome and the autosomes. This is based on the function of interspersed nuclear elements, such as LINEs, which can inactivate the X chromosome and the reliance of non-autonomous SINEs on LINEs for transposition.

In order to evlauate feasibility of the gene tagging by the maize transposable element Ac in heterologous plant systems, we have investigated physical distances and directions of transposition of the element in Arabidopsis thaliana and tobacco cultured cell line BY-2. We prepared a T-DNA construct that carried a non-autonomous derivative of Ac with a site for cleavage by endonuclease I-Scel (designated dAc-I-RS element). Another cleavage site was also introduced into the T-DNA region outside dAc-I-RS. A number of transgenic Arabidopsis plants were generated, each of which had a single copy of the T-DNA at a different chromosomal location. To examine the pattern of transposition, three out of these transgenic plants were crossed with the Arabidopsis plant that carried the gene for Ac transposase and progeny in which dAc-I-RS had been transposed were isolated. After digestion of the genomic DNA of these progeny with I-SceI, sizes of segment of DNA were determined byd pulse-field gel electrophoresis. We also performed linkage analysis for the transposed elements and sites of mutations near the elements. Our results with three transgenic lines showed that 50% of all transposition events had occurred within 1,700 kilo-base pairs (kb) on the same chromosome, with 35% within 200 kb, and that the elements transposed in both directions on the chromosome with roughly equal probability. The data thus indicate that the Ac-Ds system is most useful for tagging of genes that are present within 200 kb of the chromosomal site of Ac in Arabidopsis. In addition, determination of the precise localization of the transposed dAc-I-RS element should definitely assist in map-based cloning of genes around insertion sites. In the present paper, we report typical examples of such gene isolation studies.

In this paper, solar-powered, multi-scale, vibration-impedance sensor node on Imote2 platform is presented for hybrid structural health monitoring (SHM) in cable-stayed bridge. In order to achieve the objective, the following approaches are proposed. Firstly, vibration- and impedance-based hybrid SHM methods are briefly described. Secondly, the multi-scale vibration and impedance sensor node on Imote2-platform is presented on the design of hardware components and embedded software for vibration- and impedance-based SHM. In this approach, a solar-powered energy harvesting is implemented for autonomous operation of the smart sensor nodes. Finally, the feasibility and practicality of the smart sensor-based SHM system is evaluated on a full-scale cable-stayed bridge, Hwamyung Bridge in Korea. Successful level of wireless communication and solar-power supply for smart sensor nodes are verified. Also, vibration and impedance responses measured from the target bridge which experiences various weather conditions are examined for the robust long-term monitoring capability of the smart sensor system.

This paper describes the plan and procedure of a development test and evaluation that will be performed to verify the performance and technology of multi-mission unmanned surface vehicles (MMUSVs). In order to verify the design requirement of MMUSVs, we designed and manufactured the common platform of MMUSVs, which have an overall length of8.4 m, a displacement of 3,100 kg, and a speed of more than35 kts. The platform is equipped with several sub-systems, including radar and an EOTS/IRS. The EOTS/IRS, along with the search radar, is used for effective detection, identification, and targeting. The core technologies of MMUSV for DT&E will be investigated. The common platform design technologies, remote operating and control system technologies, autonomous navigation technologies, and unmanned operational technology of sensors and equipment will be studied for the development of the MMUSV's core technologies. The system will be able to make precise observations and track targets both manually and automatically during day and night conditions. Currently, the verification tests for each of the technologies and for the integrated system are in the pipeline for DT&E, which will be performed next year. Also, software reliability and life tests will be performed.

MANET(Mobile Ad hoc Network)에서는 이동 단말들이 기존에 설치된 구조물이나 운영자의 노력없이 스스로 임시망을 구성하여 통신을 하게 된다. ad hoc 망에서의 라우팅은 이동성이 많은 단말들이 임시로 망을 구성하기 때문에 망 자체가 유기적으로 자주 변하며, 이로 인해 잦은 연결실패로 인한 불안정한 환경이 조성되어 기존의 유선환경보다 좀 더 어려우며 유선망에서 쓰이던 라우팅 프로토콜들은 ad hoc 망에 적합하지 않게 된다. 본 논문에서는 ad hoc 망에 대한 전반적인 이해와 더불어 ad hoc 망에서 사용되는 여러 라우팅 프로토콜에 대해 알아보고, 그 중 hybrid 기법을 사용하는 ZRP(Zone Routing Protocol)의 성능을 분석하였다. ZRP 프로토콜의 경우 효율적인 사용을 위해선 최적의 존 반경을 사용하는 것이 필수적이다. 그렇지 않을 경우 IARP 또는 IERP 트래픽의 급증으로 인하여 패킷의 전송을 위해 필요로 하는 ZRP 트래픽의 오버헤드를 크게 증가시켜 전체적인 망의 성능이 저하됨을 모의실험을 통하여 확인하였다. 또한 ad hoc 망에서의 QoS 라우팅을 위한 in-band 시그널을 이용한 QoS 경로를 찾는 과정을 제시하였으며 QoS를 보장한 경로에 한하여 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스 등을 가능하게 하는 경로를 보장할 수 있었다.

수중 음향통신 환경에서는 지상 RF 통신에 비하여 제한된 대역폭, 높은 페이딩효과, 높은 수중음파 전달지연과 같은 제약이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 수중 음향통신의 제약을 극복하여 효과적인 대규모 수중감시시스템의 구축을 가능케 하는 계층적 네트워크 구조를 제안한다. 제안하는 네트워크구조는 수중센서, 클러스터헤드, 수중/해상 싱크 및 수중무인기를 포함하며, 패킷의 전송성공률을 최대화하고 센서노드의 전력소모를 최소화시키기 위하여 복수의 수중무인기를 이용한 하이브리드 형태의 데이터라우팅을 제공한다. 즉, 클러스터 내부에서 클러스터멤버들은 Tree구조기반 라우팅을 사용하여 클러스터헤드에게 데이터를 전송하며, 궤도 이동을 하는 수중무인기는 클러스터헤드로부터 병합된 센싱데이터를 수집하고 Store-carry-forward 방식으로 싱크노드에게 데이터를 전달한다. 수중무인기의 최장 궤도이동 시간을 최소화하기 위하여 Integer Linear Programming 기반의 알고리즘이 사용된다. 시뮬레이션을 이용한 성능분석을 통하여 제안하는 수중센서네트워크 구조가 기존의 Gradient 기반 라우팅과 Geographical Forwarding 방식에 비해 높은 전송성공율과 낮은 전력소모를 획득할 수 있음을 보인다.
