In this paper, we propose a real-time video playback scheme for the N-Screen service based on Windows Azure. This scheme creates several playback blocks based on the performance of each node by non-uniform splitting of the original video. To reduce transcoding-time, it allocates the playback blocks to a corresponding node by transcoding the playback blocks. Through the simulation, we show that it is more effective to use real-time video playback for the N-screen service than the previous method. The proposed scheme splits an AVI format 300MB source video with non-uniform playback blocks. It allocates the playback blocks to the heterogeneous node of Windows Azure, the commercial cloud system and measures of transcoding-time by transcoding non-uniform playback blocks to mp4 and Flv format. As a result, the proposed scheme improves the performance of the N-screen service based on Windows Azure compared to the previous uniform split strategy.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a program to measure and to judge the accuracy of yoga postures using Azure Kinect. The program measures all joint positions of the user through Azure Kinect Camera and sensors. The measured values of joints are used as data to determine accuracy in two ways. The measured joint data are determined by trigonometry and Pythagoras theorem to determine the angle of the joint. In addition, the measured joint value is changed to relative position value. The calculated and obtained values are compared to the joint values and relative position values of the desired posture to determine the accuracy. Azure Kinect Camera organizes the screen so that users can check their posture and gives feedback on the user's posture accuracy to improve their posture.

본 논문에서는 Azure 클라우드 플랫폼의 가상서버 호스팅을 이용해 데이터 수집 환경을 구축하고, Azure에서 제공하는 자동화된 기계학습(Automated Machine Learning, AutoML)을 기반으로 데이터 분석 방법에 관한 연구를 수행했다. 가상 서버 호스팅 환경에 LAMP(Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP)를 설치하여 데이터 수집환경을 구축했으며, 수집된 데이터를 Azure AutoML에 적용하여 자동화된 기계학습을 수행했다. Azure AutoML은 소모적이고 반복적인 기계학습 모델 개발을 자동화하는 프로세스로써 기계학습 솔루션 구현하는데 시간과 자원(Resource)를 절약할 수 있다. 특히, AutoML은 수집된 데이터를 분류와 회귀 및 예측하는데 있어서 학습점수(Training Score)를 기반으로 보유한 데이터에 가장 적합한 기계학습 모델의 순위를 제공한다. 이는 데이터 분석에 필요한 기계학습 모델을 개발하는데 있어서 개발 초기 단계부터 코드를 설계하지 않아도 되며, 전체 기계학습 시스템을 개발 및 구현하기 전에 모델의 구성과 시스템을 설계해볼 수 있기 때문에 매우 효율적으로 활용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 NPU(Neural Processing Unit) 학습에 필요한 데이터 수집 환경에 관한 연구를 수행했으며, Azure AutoML을 기반으로 데이터 분류와 회귀 등 가장 효율적인 알고리즘 선정에 관한 연구를 수행했다.

The bioelectrochemical reduction of nitrate in the presence of various mediators including methyl viologen and azure A was studied using a 3-electrode voltammetric system. The catalytic potential for the reduction of the mediators was observed in the reactor, which for methyl viologen and azure A were -0.74 V and -0.32 V, respectively, with respect to the potential of Ag/AgCl reference electrode. This potential was then applied to a working electrode to reduce each mediator for enzymatic nitrate reduction. Nitrite, the product of the reaction, was measured to observe the enzymatic nitrate reduction in the reaction media. Methyl viologen was observed as the most efficient mediator among those tested, while azure A showed the highest electron efficiency at the intrinsic reduction potential when the mediated enzyme reactions were carried out with the freely solubilized mediator. The electron transfer of azure A with respect to time was due to the adhesion of azure A to the hydrophilic surface during the reduction. In addition, the use of the adsorbed mediator on conductive activated carbon was proposed to inhibit the change in the electron transfer rate during the reaction by maintaining a constant mediator concentration and active surface area of the electrode. Azure A showed better than nitrite formation than methyl viologen when used with activated carbon.

This paper deals with the process and requirements of a capstone design project performed by undergraduate students. We discuss about the preliminary study for the capstone design, the derivation of a subject, the level descriptor of the subject, and the system requirements. And then, we summarize the results of the capstone design project entitled as Microsoft Azure based IoT (Internet of Things) system which is performed by 4 undergraduate students during 10 months. This system is composed of a Zigbee sensor network, the TCP/IP Internet, an IoT server, and a smartphone application program, with which we can gather the sensor data and control actuators at the far away area.

The objective of this study was to develop a runoff analysis system of the Nakdong River watershed using the GRM (Grid-based Rainfall-runoff Model), a physically-based distributed rainfall-runoff model, and to assess the system run time performance according to Microsoft Azure VM (Virtual Machine) settings. Nakdong River watershed was divided into 20 sub-watersheds, and GRM model was constructed for each subwatershed. Runoff analysis of each watershed was calculated in separated CPU process that maintained the upstream and downstream topology. MoLIT (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport) real-time radar rainfall and dam discharge data were applied to the analysis. Runoff analysis system was run in Azure environment, and simulation results were displayed through web page. Based on this study, the Nakdong River real-time runoff analysis system, which consisted of a real-time data server, calculation node (Azure), and user PC, could be developed. The system performance was more dependent on the CPU than RAM. Disk I/O and calculation bottlenecks could be resolved by distributing disk I/O and calculation processes, respectively, and simulation runtime could thereby be decreased. The study results could be referenced to construct a large watershed runoff analysis system using a distributed model with high resolution spatial and hydrological data.

To investigate the bird's dieting behavior for several fruits in orchards, this study was carried out in 2008. Black-billed magpies (Pica pica), azure-winged magpies (Cyanopica cyanus), and brown-eared bulbuls (Hypsipetes amaurotis) made their unique marks on the surface of pear and apple fruits; black-billed magpies pecked fruits strongly and left round holes with perpendicular angle, whereas those of azure-winged magpies and brown-eared bulbuls were sack-shaped with narrow neck and marked unique stripes on the skin. For the fruits of pear and apple from bagging practices, the birds showed different foraging behavior; black-billed magpies could injure all kinds of fruits whether with paper bags or not, but azure-winged magpies and brown-eared bulbuls could not attack the fruits with paper bag. Azure-winged magpies and brown-eared bulbuls preferred pear fruits to those of apples and satsuma mandarins in the cage trials. To reduce the injuries by azure-winged magpies and brown-eared bulbuls on pear and apple fruit, wrapping bag should not be impaired. Introducing azure-winged magpies to Cheju should be prohibited for the potential citrus injury by them.
