In this paper, we implemented a real-time system which displays 3-dimensional (3D) stereoscopic image with stereo camera. The system consists of a set of stereo camera, FPGA board, and 3D stereoscopic LCD. Two CMOS image sensor were used for the stereo camera. FPGA which processes video data was designed with Verilog-HDL, and it can accommodate various resolutional videos. The stereoscopic image is configured by two methods which are side-by-side and up-down image configuration. After the left and right images are converted to the type for the stereoscopic display, they are stored into SDRAM. When the next frame is inputted into FPGA from two CMOS image sensors, the previous video data is output to the DA converter for displaying it. From this pipeline operation, the real-time operation is possible. After the proposed system was implemented into hardware, we verified that it operated exactly.

This paper proposes a framework to construct the synthetic battlefield based aviation engagement simulation model for the distributed system. The proposed framework has the synthetic battlefield in the HLA (High Level Architecture)/RTI (Run-Time Infrastructure) based distributed system to reflect environmental effects into the aviation engagement simulation model. In an aviation engagement, the environment affects weapon systems such as detection and movement. Therefore, environmental effects are required to be reflected in the simulation. However, former researches are inadequate for complex operations of weapon systems that are requirements of the engagement simulation. Thus, the construction of the engagement simulation system of which reflects environmental effects based on environmental data is still difficult. The main objective of this paper is to propose a framework to solve the difficulty and constructs an example system based on the proposed framework.

This paper proposers a preprocessing approach to improving the quality of the music produced by the EVRC(enhanced variable rate codec) which is one of the CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) voice codecs. Since the EVRC is optimized only for speech signals, it can deteriorate the quality of the music passed through it. One of the problems with the EVRC-coded music is time-clipping, which usually occurs when subsequent frames are encoded at Rate l/8. Since the EVRC determines the bit rate for an input frame based on the long-term prediction gain, we increase the long-term prediction gain in order for the most of the frames to be encoded at Rate 1 or Rate 1/2. Experimental results show that the approach works well on music signals and the number of time-clipped frames is considerably reduced.

This paper presents implementation of two types of the 802.11 MAC engine for the next generation WLAN, 802.11n. The first version of MAC engine consists of hardwired logic and embedded firmware. Hardwired logic includes Tx block, Rx block, Backoff block, and ChannelManage block. Embedded firmware contains Protocol Control block, MLME block, and MSDU processing block. The first version has a time-critical fault during the atomic transmission caused by software overhead, so it can not be applied to 802.11n MAC. For that reason, the second version has additional blocks with hardwired logic modules to reduce software overhead of the first version. This enhanced version has 73Mbps throughput and it is expected to be further improved up to 129 Mbps with frame aggregation which is one of the key additional features of 802.11n. As a result, the second version of MAC engine can be applied to 802.11n MAC.

For the improvement of coding efficiency, the H.264 standard uses new coding tools. Using these coding tools, H.264 has achieved significant improvements from rate-distortion point of view. The adoption of these tools enables a macroblock in H.264 to have more information, sixteen motion vectors, four reference frames and a macroblock mode. In this paper, we present an efficient temporal error concealment algorithm by using not only motion vectors and reference frames but also macroblock mode of neighbor macroblocks. Our algorithm conceals the macroblock error with variable sizes, $16{\times}16,\;16{\times}8,\;8{\times}16,\;8{\times}8$ depending on the macroblock modes of neighbor macroblocks. Simulation results show that the proposed method increase the objective quality regardless of bit-rate and block error rate.

In general, an ordinary CCTV camera has equipped with 24 frames per second. This camera is not capable of capturing an image of bullet trace which has speed about 1km per second. In spite of these difficulties, by means of the stereographical projection, a long distance trace is able to be contained in one image. Currently, to capture a series of image of an object with high speed, it is usual to use one of the complicated camera with high shutter speed or computerized devices with capability of controlling shutter timing with slightly different capture time. This paper proposed a monitoring tracer bullet single camera system equipped convex mirror trying to see whether or not a normal set of camera and convex mirror is capable of shooting on target located in as far as 250m.

This paper addresses the kinematic study for the structural analysis of the S60ME-C multi-cylinder vessel engine. The load conditions such as the lateral force and the reaction force by the crank-shaft are required for the FEM analysis. The driving parts in vessel engine are assumed to be in frictionless rigid plane motion. We analytically derive dynamic forces for a single cylinder by using the dynamic force equilibrium. But, for the structural analysis for a single cylinder block, we use the loading conditions of two neighboring cylinders. Meanwhile, we use the single cylinder's loading condition to calculate the multi-cylinder's loading conditions, because each cylinder shows a cyclic loading pattern with respect to the crank arm's rotation angle.

Quasi-static tests such as monotonic tension and loading/unloading tension were performed to investigate the bond characteristics and the failure processes for the T-joint specimens made from fiber/epoxy composite material. Two types of specimens, each consists of two components, e. g. skin and frame. were manufactured by co-curing and secondary bonding. During the monotonic tension test, AE instrument was used to predict AE signal at the initial and middle stage of the damage propagation. The damage initiation and progression were monitored optically using m (Charge Coupled Device) camera. And the internal crack front profile was examined using ultrasonic C-scan. The results indicate that the loads representing the abrupt increase of the AE signal are within the error range of 5 percent comparing to the loads shown in the load-time curve. Also it is shown that the initiation of crack occurred in the noodle region for both co-cured and secondarily bonded specimen. The final failure occurred in the noodle region for the co-cured specimen. but at the skin/frame termination point for the secondarily bonded specimen. Based on the results, it was found that two kinds of specimen show different failure modes depending on the manufacturing methods.

To make stacked chip packages far high-density packaging of memory chips used in workstations or PC severs, several lead-frames are to be connected vertically. Fer this purpose. Sn or Sn/Ag were electrochemically deposited on Cu lead-frames and their microstructures were examined by XRD and SEM. Then, two specimens were annealed at $250^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. and pressed to be joined. The shear stresses of joined lead-frames were measured fur comparison. In the case of Sn only, $Cu_3Sn$ was formed by the reaction of Sn and Cu lead-frames. In the case of Sn/Ag, besides $Cu_3Sn$. $Ag_3Sn$ was formed by the reaction of Sn and Ag. Compared to joined specimens made from Sn only, those made from Sn/Ag showed 1.2 times higher shear stress. This was attributed to the $Ag_3Sn$ phase formed at the joined interface.

Despite the growing need for customized operating system kernels for embedded devices, kernel development continues to suffer from insufficient reliability and high testing cost for several reasons such as the high complexity of the kernel code. To alleviate these difficulties, this study proposes the MOdel-based KERnel Testing (MOKERT) framework for detection of concurrency bugs in the kernel. MOKERT translates a given C program into a corresponding Promela model, and then tries to find a counter example with regard to a given requirement property, If found, MOKERT executes that counter example on the real kernel code to check whether the counter example is a false alarm or not, The MOKERT framework was applied to the Linux proc file system and confirmed that the bug reported in a ChangeLog actually caused a data race problem, In addition, a new data race bug in the Linux proc file system was found, which causes kernel panic.
