We present a relevance feedback approach based on multi-class support vector machine (SVM) learning and cluster-merging which can significantly improve the retrieval performance in region-based image retrieval. Semantically relevant images may exhibit various visual characteristics and may be scattered in several classes in the feature space due to the semantic gap between low-level features and high-level semantics in the user's mind. To find the semantic classes through relevance feedback, the proposed method reduces the burden of completely re-clustering the classes at iterations and classifies multiple classes. Experimental results show that the proposed method is more effective and efficient than the two-class SVM and multi-class relevance feedback methods.

This study participated in educational programs for young designers and received trainings in sewing technology through government and local government-supported projects led by a from a skilled craftsman. These initiatives aim to revitalize the Dongdaemun fashion cluster, which is currently experiencing stagnation. Our goal is to develop denim brands that reflect the unique regional characteristics stemming from the skilled sewing techniques and denim processes of the Changsin·Sungin regions, the production hubs supporting Dongdaemun, to discover solutions for revitalizing the local industry. For the research method, we collected data by actively participating in support projects related to the Dongdaemun fashion cluster. Additionally, we gathered data by conducting a theoretical review of the sewing industry in the Changsin·Sungin regions and the Dongdaemun fashion cluster. The research results include developing a denim brand collection-eight denim products-based on Changsin-dong's unique denim sewing technology and various denim washing processes acquired through the support project and regional characteristics. Overall, this study is meaningful in presenting a sustainable plan to revitalize the domestic sewing and manufacturing industry, focusing on the Dongdaemun fashion cluster. We achieved this by developing a denim brand that leverages the sewing and washing process technology and the unique regional characteristics of Changsin-dong.

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are infrastructure-less and stand-alone wireless networks with dynamic topologies. To support user's safety in MANETs, fundamental and various security services should be supported. Especially in mobile commercial market, one of the major concerns regarding security is user privacy. Recently, researches about security system to protect user privacy in cluster-based MANETs have been introduced. This paper propose a cluster reconfiguration protocol under anonymous cluster-based MANETs to enhance the network stability. The improved anonymous cluster-based MANETs can recover the network structure against abnormal states of clutserheads.

Sweden's regional innovation system is built mainly on innovative clusters, several of them - in automobile, steel, new materials, information and telecommunication, and bioscience - world-class. Most successful clusters were developed at local bases imbued with local history. In fact, a cluster's competitiveness is intimately related to its closeness of fit with its local environment. Geographically dispersed clusters in Sweden - some national, others local, and some local but deemed members of a national cluster as well - have already created many new competitive products and services. In 2001, Sweden has eight national and nine regional clusters, and envisioned eleven national and five regional clusters more. The experience of Swedish clusters indicate several elements that determine the ability of cluster policies to promote and strengthen regional economic growth. Cluster policies require strong public sector support, particularly in the form of providing basic national conditions. Regional cluster policies place new demands on national and regional industrial policies. All policies must be closely interwoven without compromising their primary allegiance to their respective areas.

This paper deals with the consideration of mathematical models with regards to growth of cluster and firms by reviewing the Metcalf and Breuner's articles. prior studies have been argued the phenomenon of local industrial clusters and districts. Several concepts have been adopted to support the success of and changes to these clusters and firm growth. Through the review of two papers, evolution of both cluster and firm growth may be achieved in terms of utilizations of the different local aspects and mechanisms. This paper supports the theoretical back bone with regards to the regional cluster policy implementing in Korea for the purpose of regional developments. In particular, a mathematical model that, on a more abstract level, captures the fundamental dynamic structure of all the observed mechanisms. On the basis of this model, the emergence and evolution of local clusters can be described. Also this model has given that the knowledge sharing between firms has an important role to firms and cluster' growth.

Cluster systems have been widely used for solving problems in various application domains, and regarded as useful high performance computing resources. As the number of cluster system user is increasing, it is no less important to maintain stable operation than to improve cluster system performance. Although hardware preventive maintenance is important for keeping normal operation, the testing tool which can be used for general cluster systems during maintenance has received little attention. In this Paper, considering hardware Preventive maintenance, we suggest a testing tool for hardware of cluster system. The cluster system testing tool which is named CTS(Cluster system Test Suite) has two check routines; one for memory, and the other for NIC respectively. The CTS is designed to support the common features of general cluster systems and all the Jobs such as setting test conditions to querying the results can be done entirely within an integrated GUI environment. CTS is used as the testing tool for two kinds of cluster systems during maintenance, and the experimental results show that CTS reports useful information for cluster systems management.

The Korean Ministry of Environment and Daegu Metropolitan City are establishing the Korea Water Cluster, which will focus on promoting and escalating Korean water industries. The water industry, a future-oriented and promising business sector, is continuously growing each year worldwide, so the project is very timely. In reality, however, challenges still need to be addressed, such as accessibility, logistics systems, social infrastructures, and attracting good companies. For the Korea Water Cluster to be successful, those issues should be solved, but it is difficult to untangle the matters only with efforts of the Korean Ministry of Environment and Daegu Metropolitan City since some issues will require a great deal of both money and time. Therefore, it is important for the Korean federal government to administer support and finances for certain parts of the project, and for the Korean Ministry of Environment and Daegu Metropolitan City to take on other issues to ensure the Korea Water Cluster is successful long-term. The success of the Korea Water Cluster project will result in the Korea Water Cluster becoming a global hub for the future water industries.

Since sensor networks consist of sensor nodes with limited energy resources, so efficient energy use of sensor nodes is very important in the design of sensor networks. Sensor nodes consume a lot of energy for data transmission. Clustering technique is used to efficiently use energy in data transmission. Recently, mobile sink techniques have been proposed to reduce the energy load concentrated on the cluster header near a sink node. The CMS(Cluster-based Mobile sink) technique minimizes the generation of control messages by creating a data transmission path while creating clusters, and supports the inter-cluster one-hop transmission. But, there is a case where there is no connectivity between neighbor clusters, it causes a problem of having a long hop data transmission path regardless of local distance. In this paper, we propose a SCBC(Strong connection balancing cluster) to support the path of the minimum number of hops. The proposed scheme minimizes the number of hops in the data transmission path and supports efficient use of energy in the cluster header. This also minimizes a number of hops in data transmission paths even when the sink moves and establishes a new path, and it supports the effect of extending the life cycle of the entire sensor network.

This paper studies the R&D network of the Zhongguancun Cluster, the most representative innovative cluster of the high-tech industry in China at present. For this study, Zhongguancun Cluster was the first high-tech cluster to have been created in China, the current Zhongguancun Cluster has played a leading role in the development of the high-tech industry in China. In addition, the Zhongguancun Cluster has at helped elevate China as a key region in terms of research development in relation to the high-tech industry. In particular, companies evaluate the research development network culture of Zhongguancun cluster positively and this increases their tendency to approach the research development network with an open mind. The main contents in research development network are as follows; (1) joint or consigned research development and technology transfer in the case of research development network between companies, (2) joint or consigned research development, human resource support and employment, technical advice and consultant and technology transfer in the case of industrial-educational relationships (3) joint or consigned research development, technical advice and consultant and technology transfer in the case of industrial-research relationships, (4) financial support and participation in joint research development project held by government in the case of industrial and governmental relationships (5) financing for research development, utilization of research human resources, purchase of research development and use of research development equipment for mediators. The main difficulties in creating a research development network are 'lack of mutual trust', 'financial problems of companies' and 'lack of information'. Especially, the main key obstacles for the most important research development network between industry and government in the case of the Zhongguancun Cluster are 'complicated and strict procedures. Therefore, more accurate and detailed understanding of the conditions and the following institutional measures from government are required for research development among companies.
