This paper presents a floating point unit(FPU) with 3 stages for a 3D graphics shader engine. It targeted to accelerate 3D graphics in portable device environments. In order to design a balanced architecture for a shader engine, we analyzed shader assembly instructions and estimated the performance of FPU with the method we propose. The proposed unit handles 4-dimensional data through separated two paths that are lead to general operation module and special function module. The proposed FPU is compiled as a form of the cascade FPU with 3 stages to efficiently handle a matrix operation with relatively low hardware overhead. Except some complex instructions that are executed using macro instructions, all instructions complete an operation in a single instruction cycle at 100MHz frequency. A special function module performs all operations in a single clock cycle using the Newton Raphson method with the look-up table.

An experimental study in a recirculating water channel was carried out to investigate the effect of large coherent structures to the skin friction on a flat plate. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique was used to quantify characteristic features of coherent structures growing to the boundary layer. In the PIV measurement, it is difficult to calculate the friction velocity near the wall region due to laser deflection and uncertainty so that Clauser fitting method at the logarithmic region was adopted to compute the friction velocity and compared with the one directly measured by the dynamometer. With changing the free-stream velocity from 0.5 m/s to 1.0 m/s, the activity of coherent structures in the logarithmic region was increased over three times in terms of Reynolds stress. The flow field was separated by Variable Interval Time Averaging (VITA) technique into the weak and the strong structure case depending on the existence large coherent structures in order to validate its effectiveness. The stream-wise velocity fluctuation was scanned through at the boundary thickness whether it had a large deviation from background flow. With coherent structures connected from near-wall to the boundary layer, mean wall shear stress was higher than that of weak structure case. Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) analysis was also applied to compare the energy budget between them at each free-stream velocity.

본 논문에서는 고속, 저전력 8-비트 ADC를 설계하는 기법들을 제안하였다. 비교적 적은 전력 소모를 가지면서 고속으로 동작 시키기 위해 기존의 파이프라인 구조인 MDAC를 이용한 폐쇄형 구조 대신에 개방형 구조를 채택하였다. 또한 Distributed THA와 캐스캐이드 형태의 구조를 이용하여 높은 샘플링 속도에 최적화 하였다. 제안한 각 단의 크로싱 지점을 판별하는 기법은 증폭기의 개수를 줄일 수 있도록 함으로서 저전력과 좁은 면적의 ADC 구현을 가능하게 하였다. 모의 실험 결과 500-MHz의 샘플링 속도와 1.8V 전원 전압에서 테스트에 필요한 디지털 회로까지 포함, 210mW의 전력을 소비함을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 1.2Vpp(Differential) 입력 범위와 200-MHz까지의 입력 주파수에서 8-비트에 가까운 ENOB를 가짐을 볼 수 있었다. 설계된 ADC는 $0.18{\mu}m$ 6-Metal 1-Poly CMOS 공정을 이용, $900{\mu}m{\times}500{\mu}m$의 면적을 차지한다.

10 years ago, in Sijeon-ri, Dogo-myeon, Asan-si, the existing stream was repaired to develope Mt. Dogo trail and irrigation systems through road expansion pavement construction and small stream repair construction. The trees such as persimmon and willow are eliminated that rowed on both sides of the stream and dredging work to dig the rock and sand have been performed. As a result, wide asphalt road was built, also flood damage worries were reduced. 10 years passed and now, how did local residents think about the stream repaired before and after? Village residents, public officials, and the stream construction engineer were interviewed. Villagers indicated a problems that brook became a place where water peppers were taking over and water was stagnating due to the slow velocity so nothing could live and natural landscape like a wash place and the cascade disappeared, because rock and sand were taken out brought soil into the brook. Public officials and engineers were aware of the problems at the time of the stream. Now that construction is completed after 10 years, Both realistically and budgetary to restoration would be difficult. However, it is necessary to seek for waterfront space which can be restored or replaced by a part of the stream like similarly before. In addition, it is necessary to restore to the progression of a natural stream which connect with stairs(or slope) - small waterfalls - pools - wash place. In this paper, we hope to take a lesson from the Sijeon-ri model and make rural stream construction be prepared with consideration about not only distinct characteristics of specific area but also the opinion of local resident.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the actual conditions, to find problems, and to present an improvement plan of interior landscape in the subway stationis. Moreoiver, it will presume the possibilties to develop the subway and ways to utilie underground space effectively. The results are summarized as follows A light intensity was recorded 0-100 Lux as the lowest light and 500 Lux below as the highest in 61 subway stations. An average temperature of 12 $^{\circ}C$and an air humidity of 38% were recorded over a 4 month period from January to April, but includes a drastic variaton between -8.5$^{\circ}C$ and 21.5$^{\circ}C$. Soil acidity of pH 7 below and soil moisture of 1-2 wet degree were apeared in subway stations mostly. Plant forms consisted of artificial flower & flower. Plant species were recorded at a total of 54 species and appeared in the order of Araucaria heteropylla, Ophiophogon jaburan, Aspidistra elatior cv. 'Asahi' and Hedera helix. Plant height was, for the most part, below 0.5m. Plant species that was fined of conditions were Palm, Camellia japonica, Araucaria heterophylla as a high plant, dracaena fragrans, dracaena deremensis cv. Wakneckii as a middle plant, and Ophiopogon jaburan, Hedra helix, ytomium falcatum, Aspidistra elatior cv. Asahi as a low plant. It used to water materials such as small pool, small cascade, water cycles and natural materials such as natural rock, small rock, sand, bark and animal materials such as squirrels, birds, goldfish as an object for plants in the subway stations. From these actual conditions, First of all, It must make up physical environments such as light, temperature humidity, soil for plant growth, and is important to chooce suitable indoor plants and draw up systematic management in the subway environments. Also, it change plants frequently and uses variable objects for subway stationi individuatism, Moreover, indoor plants with strong environmental adaptation abities such as shade tolerance, drought tolerance and cold tolerance need to develope variable species possibly. If these improvements occur, utilization and amenity of subway stationis will increase, according to the use of interior landscape.

GacS and GacA proteins form a two component signal transduction system in bacteria. Here, Tn5 transposon gacS and gacA (Gac) mutants of Pseudomonas sp. KL28, an alkylphenol degrader, were isolated by selecting for smooth colonies of strain KL28. The mutants exhibited reduced ability to migrate on a solid surface. This surface motility does not require the action of flagella unlike the well-studied swarming motility of other Pseudomonas sp. The Gac mutants also showed reduced levels of biofilm and pellicle formation in liquid culture. In addition, compared to the wild type KL28 strain, these mutants were more resistant to high concentrations of m-cresol but were more sensitive to $H_2O_2$, which are characteristics that they share with an rpoS mutant. These results indicate that the Gac regulatory cascade in strain KL28 positively controls wrinkling morphology, biofilm formation, surface translocation and $H_2O_2$ resistance, which are important traits for its capacity to survive in particular niches.

This paper describes a high-radix crossbar switch design with low latency and power dissipation for Network-on-Chip (NoC) applications. The reduction in latency and power is achieved by employing a folded-clos topology, implementing the switch organized as three stages of low-radix switches connected in cascade. In addition, to facilitate the uniform placement of wires among the sub-switch stages, this paper proposes a Mux-Matrix-Mux structure, which implements the first and third switch stages as multiplexer-based crossbars and the second stage as a matrix-type crossbar. The proposed 256-radix, 8-bit crossbar switch designed in a 65nm CMOS has the simulated power dissipation of 1.92-W and worst-case propagation delay of 0.991-ns while operating at 1.2-V supply and 500-MHz frequency. Compared with the state-of-the-art designs in literature, the proposed crossbar switch achieves the best energy-delay-area efficiency of $0.73-fJ/cycle{\cdot}ns{\cdot}{\lambda}^2$.

목표물 탐지 및 인식은 신경망의 적용이 활발한 하나의 분야로서, 일반적인 형태인식 문제들의 요구 사항에 추가적으로 translation invariance와 실시간 처리를 요구한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 요구 사항을 만족하는 새로운 신경망의 구조를 소개하고, 이의 효과적인 학습 방법을 설명한다. 제안된 신경망은 특징 추출 단계와 형태 인식 단계가 연속(Cascade)된 가중치 공유 신경망(Shared-weight Neural Network)을 기본으로하여 이를 확장한 형태이다. 이 신경망의 특징 추출 단계는 입력에 가중치 창(weight kernel)으로 코릴레이션 형태의 연산을 수행하며, 신경망 전체를 하나의 2차원 비선형 코릴레이션 필터로 볼 수 있다. 따라서, 신경망의 최종 출력은 목표물 위치에 첨예(peak)값을 갖는 코릴레이션 평면이다. 이 신경망이 갖는 구조는 병렬 또는 분산 처리 컴퓨터로의 구현에 매우 적합하며, 이러한 사실은 실시간 처리가 중요한 요인이 되는 문제에 적용할 수 있음을 의미한다. 목표물과 비목표물간의 숫자상 불균형으로 인하여 초래되는 오경보(false alarm) 발생의 문제를 극복하기 위한 새로운 학습 방법도 소개한다. 성능 검증을 위하여 제안된 신경망을 주차장내에서 이동하는 특정 차량의 탐지 및 인식 문제에 적용하였다. 그 결과 오경보 발생이 없었으며, 중형급 컴퓨터를 이용하여 약 190Km로 이동하는 차량의 추적이 가능한 정도의 빠른 처리 결과를 보여 주었다.
