Digital Broadcast Service is being very popular and the delivery mechanism for digital broadcast content through IP network has progressed constantly, due to the advance of video and audio compression and network technologies. From these trends, in Korea, the commercial IPTV service starts in this year after the law related to IPTV is enacted last year. Since IPTV service, which integrates broadcast and communication services, can give an infrastructure for fusion of communication and interactive multimedia data service, IPTV service is attractive. Recently, by the advent of various wireless connection technologies and the mobile devices of high capability, Mobile IPTV, which has an advantage of not only IPTV but also mobile TV, has gained much interest. In this paper, we review a necessary ingredient for Mobile IPTV in the next generation wired/wireless convergence network environment which consists of heterogeneous wireless access networks. In addition, we propose the scheme for user mobility and service session mobility management using RTSP protocol and introduce the service gateway concept to guarantee the extension of IPTV service platform.

Digital watermarking has drawn extensive attention for protecting digital contents from unauthorized copying. This paper proposes a new watermarking scheme in frequency domain for copyright protection of digital audio. In our proposed watermarking system, the original audio is segmented into non-overlapping frames. Watermarks are then embedded into the selected prominent peaks in the magnitude spectrum of each frame. Watermarks are extracted by performing the inverse operation of watermark embedding process. Simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme is robust against various kinds of attacks such as noise addition, cropping, resampling, re-quantization, MP3 compression, and low pass filtering. Our proposed watermarking system outperforms Cox's method in terms of imperceptibility, while keeping comparable robustness with the Cox's method. Our proposed system achieves SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) values ranging from 20 dB to 28 dB. This is in contrast to Cox's method which achieves SNR values ranging from only 14 dB to 23 dB.

Har dmaterials such as cemented carbides with or without coated layer, cermets, ceramics and diamond or c-BN high pressure sintered compact are used for cutting tools, wear -resistant parts, rock drilling bits and/or high pressure vessels. These hardmaterials contain not only hard phase, but also second consituent as the element for forming ductile phase and/or sintering aid, and the mechanical properties of each material depend on (1) the amount of the second constituent as well as (2) the grain size of the hard phase. The hardness of each material mainly depends on these two factors. The fracture strength, however, largely depends on other microstructur a1 factors as well as the above two factors. For all hardmaterials, the fracture strength is consider ably affected by (3) the size of microstructur a1 defect which acts as the fracture source. In cemented carbides, the following factors which are generated mainly due to the addition of the second constituent are also important; (4) the variation of the carbon content in the normal phase region free from V-phase and graphite phase, (5) the precipitation of $Co_3$ during heating at about $800^{\circ}C$,(6) the domain size of binder phase, and (7) the formation of ${\beta}$-free layer or Co-rich layer near the surface of sintered compacts. For cemented carbides coated with thin hard substance, the important factors are as follows; (8) the kind of coated substance, (9) the formation of ${\eta}$-phase layer at the interface between coated layer and substrate, (10) the type of residual stress (tension or compression) in the coated layer which depends on the kind of coating method (CVD or PVD), and (11) the properties of the substrate, and (12) the combination, coherency and periodicity of multi-layers. In the lecture, the details of these factors and their effect on the strength will be explained.

Images coded by DCT based compression contain several quality degradations by quantization process. Among them contrast distortion is the important one because human eyes are sensitive to contrast. In case of low bit-rate coded image, we can not get an image having good quality due to quantization error. In this paper, we suggest a new scheme to enhance image's contrast in DCT domain. Proposed method enhances only edge regions. Homogeneous regions are not considered in this method. $8{\times}8$ DCT coefficient blocks are decomposed to $4{\times}4$ sub-blocks for detail edge region discrimination. we could apply this scheme to real-time application because proposed scheme is DCT based method.

As architectures have recently become high-risers and megastructured, stable high strength products have been ensured. Accordingly, use of precast concrete accouplement has been increased in order to facilitate air compression and rationalize construction. Since not only external heating but also internal temperature rise caused by the accumulation of cement hydration heat in manufacturing process, precast concrete members with large cross-section used for high-rise mega-structure's columns and beams may exhibit different temperature history compared to the precast concrete members for wall and sub-floor with relatively small cross-sections. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the characteristics of temperature history of mass concrete members cast with high-strength concrete for precast concrete application. In this study, large cross-sectional precast concrete mock-up, unit cement quantity, and temperature histories in manufacturing precast concrete member under different curing condition were inclusively investigated.

Presently means of utilizing sensors such as Piezoelectric(PZT) Element for evaluating the affect of oscillator, strain gauge for analyzing physical changes and use of Fiber Bragg Grating(FBG) Sensor are widely practiced in the field. In this study, PZT and FBG sensors were used to tearing damage of cable systems in these sensors. Cable systems are a construction of elements carrying only tension and no compression or bending in membrane structure. But damage detection of cable systems by using existing safety diagnosis is difficult to detect the characteristic change of overall structural action. If cable snaps are occurred to cable release and tear in tension structures, these are set up a vibration. So, we used piezo-electric materials and result of experiment using this was compared with result of experiment using FBG sensors The purpose of this research is to develop of damage detection method of cable system in tensile stress.

In this paper, we proposed the improved Advanced Detail Enhancement algorithm that improve the blurring by the lossy compression with CODEC and reduce the ringing artifacts in restoration. The conventional algorithm needs much amount of the process by the use of RGB color space. To improve this, we only used the luminance value in YCbCr color space. We verified that the performance of the improved algorithm with Y color value, the luminance value, is equal to the conventional algorithm with RGB color value and that the operation time of the improved is shorter about 24% than the conventional through the measurement of the operation time with Kodak standard images.

Compressive sensing has proved that a signal can be restored from less samples than the Nyquist rate. Reducing the required data rate is essential for a variety of fields including compression, transmission, and storage. It has been made lots of attempt to apply the compressive sensing theory into data intensive fields, such as image processing which needs to cover 4K and 8K pictures. In this paper, an image acquisition algorithm based on compressive sensing is proposed. It combines DCT, which can compact the energy of a image into a few coefficients, and the Noiselet transform, which is incoherent with DCT. The DCT coefficients represent the coarse structure of the images while the Noiselet information holds the fine details. Performance experiments with several images show that the proposed image acquisition algorithm not only outperforms the previous results, but also improves the reconstruction quality faster as the number of measurements increases.

The rapid progress of the software has enabled individuals to copy and remake digital contents, which was only done by professionals. However, this rapid growth of software has brought many other defects. As a solution to the problems, contents producer needs to have certification and inspection of its contents text and hold the proprietary rights. In this paper, the new video watermarking scheme is proposed which is appropriate for the requirements mentioned for digital video contents and it is applied to MPEG-2 video encoder and decoder. In order to insert watermark sequence for digital video data, watermarking used blocks reordering algorithm and SCL(secret code list). It is satisfied two properties of cryptography that confidentiality and integrity. We test the proposed algorithm to see its performance in terms of watermark capacity, compression robustness and visual quality impact. According to the experiment of proposed watermarking algorithm, we obtained satisfactory results that watermark can still be extracted after MPEG-2 re-encoding at lower bit rates. It is important property for data hiding and user authentication in video data.

The dynamic behavior of fatty acid monolayers at the air-water interface was investigated using a displacement current-measuring technique coupled with the so-called Langmuir film technique and also the dipole moment of the acids was determined. The displacement current flowing though a short circuit wan generated only when induced charges on an electrode flowing though suspended in air was changed by monolayer compression. The displacement current measurement was found to be a very sensitive method used for a better understanding of the relationship between the structure and function of the monolayers placed on the water surface and it was also found to be a very useful method for detecting the dynamic motion of molecules in the entire range from the so-called gaseous state to solid state at the same time. In the paper investigate fatty monolayer dynamic state and electric property character. As result. Displacement current generate higher nearly distance electrodel and water surface. Also, Molecule behavior was found pocess active higher thermal.
