This paper is study on the voice dialing using HMM and post processing of the connected digits. HMM algorithm is widely used in the speech recognition with a good result. But, the maximum likelihood estimation of HMM(Hidden Markov Model) training in the speech recognition does not lead to values which maximize recognition rate. To solve the problem, we applied the post processing to segmental K-means procedure are in the recognition experiment. Korea connected digits are influenced by the prolongation more than English connected digits. To decrease the segmentation error in the level building algorithm some word models which can be produced by the prolongation are added. Some rules for the added models are applied to the recognition result and it is updated. The recognition system was implemented with DSP board having a TMS320C30 processor and IBM PC. The reference patterns were made by 3 male speakers in the noisy laboratory. The recognition experiment was performed for 21 sort of telephone number, 252 data. The recognition rate was $6\%$ in the speaker dependent, and $80.5\%$ in the speaker independent recognition test.

Despite its flexibility to complex geometry, three-dimensional (3D) electromagnetic(EM) modeling schemes using finite element method (FEM) have been faced to practical limitation due to the resulting large system of equations to be solved. An efficient 3D FEM modeling scheme has been developed, which can adopt either direct or iterative solver depending on the problems. The direct solver PARDISO can reduce the computing time remarkably by incorporating parallel computing on multi-core processor systems, which is appropriate for single frequency multi-source configurations. When limited memory, the iterative solver BiCGSTAB(1) can provide fast and stable convergence. Efficient 3D simulations can be performed by choosing an optimum solver depending on the computing environment and the problems to be solved. This modeling includes various types of controlled-sources and can be exploited as an efficient engine for 3D inversion.

Focusing on the factors related to the amount of contact between young married women and their noncoresident parents and their noncoresident parents-in-law, the study hypothesized two scenarios. (1) filial piety scenario which predicts that the contact with one set of parents is not affected by accessibility of other set of parents, and (2) competition scenario which predicts that ease of contact with one set of parents inhibits contact with other set of parents. These scenarios were tested against the data from National Fertility and Family Health Survey in 1994. The regression analysis of intergenerational visits appeared to support the competition scenario : The parents-in-law and the parents seem to bs in competition for visits by young married women - distance from the parents from one side has a parallel relationship to more frequent visits with the other set of parents. This is a much more equal footing for both sides of the family than attention to filial piety would predict. although the level of support from the young generation may keep declining.

Numerous operational anomalies and satellite failures have been reported since the beginnings of the "space age". Space weather effects on modern spacecraft systems have been emphasized more and more as increasing their complexity and capability. Energetic particles potentially can destroy and degrade electronic components in satellites. We analyzed the geostationary (GEO) satellite anomalies during 1997-2009 to search possible influences of space weather on the satellite anomalies like power problem, control processor problem, attitude control problem, etc. For this we use particle data from GOES and LANL satellites to investigate space weather effects on the GEO satellites' anomalies depending on Kp index, local time, seasonal variation, and high-energy electron contribution. As results, we obtained following results: (1) there is a good correlation between geomagnetic index(Kp) and anomaly occurrences of the GEO satellite; (2) especially during the solar minimum, occurrence of the satellite anomalies are related to electron flux increase due to high speed solar wind; (3) satellite anomalies occurred more preferentially in the midnight and dawn sector than noon and dusk sector; (4) and the anomalies occurred twice more in Spring and Fall than Summer and Winter; (5) the electron with the lowest energy channel (50-75keV) has the highest correlation (cc=0.758) with the anomalies. High association between the anomalies and the low energy electrons could be understand by the facts that electron fluxes in the spring and fall are stronger than those in the summer and winter, and low-energy electron flux is more concentrated in the dawn sector where the GEO satellite anomalies occurred more frequently than high-energy electron flux. While we could not identify what cause such local time dependences, our results shows that low-energy electrons (~100keV) could be main source of the satellite anomaly, which should be carefully taken into account of operating satellites.

This paper presents a Cluster Oriented Multistage Interconnection Network called COMR. COMR can be constructed suitable for the parallel application with localized communication by providing the shortcut path inside the processor-memory cluster which has frequent data communication. We evaluate the performance of COMR with respect to probability of acceptance, bandwidth, cost-effectiveness and average distance under varying degrees of localized communication. According to the result of analysis for performance evaluation, COMR shows higher performance than the regular MINs of the same network size in the highly localized communication. In the worst case, the diameter of an N$\times$N COMR is only n+1 which has only one stage more as compared the MIN with the same network size. Therefore COMR can be used as an attractive interconnection network for parallel applications with not only the localized communication distribution but also the uniform distribution in shared-memory multiprocessor system.

This paper presents a tag emulator for a UHF band RFID system. The tag emulator supports the 1800-6C and EPC global class 1 generation 2 standards. The transmitted signal from a reader is generated using the PIE coding and ASK modulation methods. Signals of a tag are from the FM0 coding and ASK modulation methods. The ARM7 processor carries out the overall control of the system and signal analysis of incoming data. The verification of the tag emulator employs the application platform implemented in C++. Users can define parameter values for protocol during the application run. The tag emulator presented in this paper allows evaluating various design alternatives of the target RFID system in real applications.

This paper describes a prototype of 3-phase 3.3kV/220V 6kVA modular semiconductor transformer developed in the lab for feasibility study. The developed prototype is composed of three single-phase units coupled in Y-connection. Each single-phase unit with a rating of 1.9kV/127V 2kVA consists of a high-voltage high-frequency resonant AC-DC converter, a low-voltage hybrid-switching DC-DC converter, and a low-voltage hybrid-switching DC-AC converter. Also each single-phase unit has two DSP controllers to control converter operation and to acquire monitoring data. Monitoring system was developed based on LabView by using CAN communication link between the DSP controller and PC. Through various experimental analyses it was verified that the prototype operates with proper performance under normal and sag condition. The system efficiency can be improved by adopting optimal design and replacing the IGBT switch with the SiC MOSFET switch. The developed prototype confirms a possibility to build a commercial high-voltage high-power semiconductor transformer by increasing the number of series-connected converter modules in high-voltage side and improving the performance of switching element.

OpenMP is becoming more and more useful as a simple parallel processing paradigm on SMP (Shared Memory Multi-Processors) computing environment with the development of multi-core processors. However, very few data is available publically regarding the OpenMP performance in CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). In the present study a CFD test suite is prepared for the performance evaluation of OpenMP on various multi-core systems. The test suite is composed of two-dimensional numerical simulations for inviscid/viscous and reacting/non-reacting flows using three different levels of grid systems. One to five test runs were carried out on various systems from dual-core dual threads to 16-core 32-threads systems by changing the number of threads engaged for each test up to 80. The results exhibit some interesting results and the lessons learned from the tests would be quite helpful for the further use of OpenMP for CFD studies using multi-core processor systems.
