  • Black-box testing needs to prepare fitting test data, execute software, and examine the result. If we test software effectively, not only selecting test cases but also representing test cases are important. In static testing effectiveness of testing activities also depends on how to represent test cases and checklist to validate. This paper suggests a method for finding ineffective critical test cases and reengineering them. An experiment of reengineering digital set-top box software shows the process and results of checking effectiveness and conformance of current test cases and patching test cases. The result shows how much save the test time and improve test coverage by reengineering test cases. Methods of reuse and restructuring test cases are also studied to fit into embedded product-line software.

  • Models of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are still difficult to grasp from the view of a Western-cultural background. For proper integration into science and clinical research, it is vital to think "out of the box" of classical sciences. Modern sciences, such as quantum physics, system theory, and information theory offer new models, that reveal TCM as a method to process information. For this purpose, we apply concepts of information theory to propose a "Chinese black box model," that allows for a non-deterministic, bottom-up approach. Considering a patient as an undeterminable complex system, the process of getting information about an individual in Chinese diagnostics is compared to the input-process-output principle of information theory and quantum physics, which is further illustrated by Wheeler's "surprise 20 questions." In TCM, an observer uses a decision-making algorithm to qualify diagnostic information by the binary polarities of "yang" (latin activity) and "yin" (latin structivity) according to the so called "8 principles" (latin 8 guiding criteria). A systematic reconstruction of ancient Chinese terms and concepts illuminates a scattered scientific method, which is specified in a medical context by Latin terminology of the sinologist Porkert [definitions of the Latin terms are presented in Porkert's appendix [1] (cf. Limitations)].

  • Protocol conformance testing consists of procedures to observe an output and to check a transition state of the Implementation Under Test considered as a black box by applying an input. There are several methods to check the transition state such as Unique Input/Output(UIO) sequence. Distinguishing Sequence(DS) and Characterization Set(CS). Particularly, as a test method for a state having no UIO sequence, Partial UIO sequence method can be considered. In this paper, three properties which can be found among Partial UIO sequence and a modified algorithm using these properties are suggested.

  • For many industrial processes there are good static models used for process design and steady state operation. By using system identification techniques, it is possible to obtain black-box models with reasonable complexity that describe the system well in specific operating conditions [1]. But black-box models using inductive modeling(IM) is not suitable for model based control because they are only valid for specific operating conditions. Thus we need to use deductive modeling(DM) for a wide operating range. Furthermore, deductive modeling is several merits: First, the model is possible to be modularized. Second, we can increase and decrease the model complexity. Finally, we are able to use model for plant design. Power plant must be able to operate well at dramatic load change and consider safety and efficiency. This paper proposes a simplified nonlinear model of an industrial boiler, one of component parts of a power plant, by DM method and applies optimal control to the model.

  • 최근 들어 차량용 블랙박스의 급속한 보급으로 많은 분야에서 중요하게 사용되고 있다. 그러나 현재의 차량용 블랙박스 시스템은 제한된 메모리의 용량에 영상 파일을 저장하기 위해, 일정 용량이 저장되면 먼저 저장된 영상 파일을 순차적으로 삭제하여 새로운 영상 파일이 저장되도록 설계되어 있다. 이것은 장시간 주차 중에 발생할 수 있는 차량훼손을 분석하기 위해서는 제약사항이 아닐 수 없다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 FTP를 이용하여 주행 중 혹은 주차 중의 영상 파일을 삭제 없이 지속적으로 저장할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 차량용 블랙박스 뿐 아니라 제한된 용량에 영상 파일을 저장하는 수많은 시스템에 동시 적용할 수 있다.

  • 최근 자동차 급발진 문제가 사회적 이슈가 되고 있다. 기본 장착품으로 자리잡은 블랙박스에 찍힌 동영상이 유포되면서 급발진으로 의심되는 영상이 속속히 등장하고 있다. 지금까지 모든 급발진은 대부분 운전자의 실수로 판결났다. 미국에서도 자동차 결함을 인정하지 않으면서도 도의상 일부 보상해준 사례가 있으나 결론에는 차이가 없었다. 본 논문에서는 기존 블랙박스 영상만으로 차량 급발진 사고유무 분석이 어려웠던 부분을 OBD-II(Onboar Diagnostic-II)에 소형블랙박스를 장착하여 운전자가 패달을 밟았는지의 유무를 판단하고, 메모리카드가 장착이 됨으로써 OBD-II의 차량 정보 및 GPS를 이용한 현재 시간, 영상 정보를 저장하여 정확한 판단을 하기위해 OBD-II 내의 블랙박스를 적용한 시스템을 제안한다.

  • In this paper, we propose a traffic light detection and recognition (TLDR) algorithm in the daytime. The proposed algorithm utilizes the color and shape information for the TLDR. At first, a traffic light is detected and recognized based on its shape information. Then, the color range of the detected traffic light is investigated in HSV color space. The input data of the proposed TLDR algorithm is the color image captured using the black box camera during driving. Our simulations demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve a high detection and recognition performance for the images including traffic lights.

  • 컴퓨터 시스템을 기반으로 이루어지는 범죄 행위로부터 법적인 보호를 받기 위해 관련 법안이 개정되고 이를 수용하기 위한 컴퓨터 포렌식 지원 기술이 다각도로 연구되고 있다. 그러나 시스템 침해자의 시스템 공격 후 본인 흔적을 지우고 나가는 경우 침해자 추출이 어렵다. 또한 휘발성 정보의 손실이 발생하며 디스크에 저장된 비휘발성 정보의 경우 파일의 삭제 및 생성에 의해 디스크 저장영역의 중복된 사용으로 완전한 정보를 추출하는데 문제를 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 시스템 침해자의 공격 형태 및 상황, 환경을 유추하기 위해 행위자를 중심으로 휘발성의 정보를 수집하여 공격 당시의 시나리오의 재현이 가능한 컴퓨터시스템 블랙박스를 설계하였다.

  • In this paper, we are dealing with the problem of controlling unknown nonlinear dynamical system by using neural networks. A novel error self-recurrent(ESR) neural model is presented to perform black-box identification. Through the various outcome of the experiment, a new neural network is seen to be considerably faster than the BP algorithm and has advantages of being less affected by poor initial weights and learning rate. These characteristics make it flexible to design the controller in real-time based on neural networks model. In addition, we design an adaptive PID controller that Keyser suggested by using ESR neural networks, and present a method on the implementation of adaptive controller based on neural network for practical applications. We obtained good results in the case of robot manipulator experiment.

  • Paired box protein, PAX7, is a key molecule for the specification, maintenance and skeletal muscle regeneration of muscle satellite cells. In this study, we identified and characterized the cDNA and amino acid sequences of PAX7 from black sea bream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii) via molecular cloning and sequence analysis. A. schlegelii PAX7 cDNA was comprised of 1,524 bp encoding 507 amino acids and multiple sequence alignment analysis of the translated amino acids showed that it contained three domains including paired DNA-binding domain, homeobox domain and OAR domain which were well conserved across various animal species investigated. Pairwise Sequence Alignment indicated that A. schlegelii PAX7 had the same amino acid sequences with that of yellowfin seabream (A. latus) and 99.8% identity and similarity with that of gilt-head bream (Sparus aurata). Molecular phylogenetic analysis confirmed that A. schlegelii PAX7 formed a monophyletic group with those of teleost and most closely related with those of the fish that belong to Sparidae family including A. latus and S. aurata. In the investigation of its tissue specific mRNA expression, the expression was specifically identified in skeletal muscle tissue and a weak expression was also shown in gonad tissue. The cultured cells derived from skeletal muscle tissues expressed PAX7 mRNA at early passage but the expression was not observed after several times of subculture.
