Generally, since memory chips should be tested all, considering its volume, the reduction in test time for detecting faults plays an important role in reducing the overall production cost. The parallel testing of chips in one ATE is a competitive solution to solve it. In this paper, NOC is proposed as test interface architecture between DUTs and ATE. Because NOC can be extended freely, there is no limit on the number of DUTs tested at the same time. Thus, more memory can be tested with the same bandwidth of ATE. Furthermore, the proposed NOC-based parallel test method can increase the efficiency of channel usage by packet type data transmission.

본 연구에서는 Optical Flow Method의 추적 성능을 향상시키기 위한 전처리 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 Median Filter, Binarization, Morphology, Canny Edge, Contour Detecting 및 Approximation Method를 기반으로 개발되었다. Optical Flow 추적 성능 향상 여부를 평가하기 위해 Lucas-Kanade Optical Flow 알고리즘에 개발된 전처리 알고리즘을 적용하고, 전처리 알고리즘이 적용되지 않은 Optical Flow 영상과 추적 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 또한, Median Filter와 Histogram Equalization으로 구성된 기존 전처리 알고리즘과의 결과 비교를 통해, 개발된 전처리 알고리즘의 추적 성능 향상여부를 평가하였다. 실험결과, 전처리 알고리즘을 적용하지 않은 영상과 기존 전처리 알고리즘을 적용한 영상은 특징영역의 분할이 이루어지지 않아, Optical Flow의 추적 정확도가 매우 낮게 나타났다. 반면, 개발된 전처리 알고리즘을 적용한 영상에서는 외곽선이 내외부로 세분화되고, 외곽선 트리가 구성됨에 따라 Optical Flow의 추적 성능이 매우 높게 나타났다.

Cryptosporidium can cause gastrointestinal diseases worldwide, consequently posing public health problems and economic burden. Effective techniques for detecting contaminated oocysts in water are important to prevent and control the contamination. Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) method has been widely employed recently due to its efficiency, but, it is costly. Sucrose floatation technique is generally used for separating organisms by using their different specific gravity. It is effective and cheap but time consuming as well as requiring highly skilled personnel. Water turbidity and parasite load in water sample are additional factors affecting to the recovery rate of those 2 methods. We compared the efficiency of IMS and sucrose floatation methods to recover the spiked Cryptosporidium oocysts in various turbidity water samples. Cryptosporidium oocysts concentration at 1, $10^1$, $10^2$, and $10^3$ per $10{\mu}l$ were spiked into 3 sets of 10 ml-water turbidity (5, 50, and 500 NTU). The recovery rate of the 2 methods was not different. Oocyst load at the concentration < $10^2$ per 10 ml yielded unreliable results. Water turbidity at 500 NTU decreased the recovery rate of both techniques. The combination of sucrose floatation and immunofluorescense assay techniques (SF-FA) showed higher recovery rate than IMS and immunofluorescense assay (IMS-FA). We used this SF-FA to detect Cryptosporidium and Giardia from the river water samples and found 9 and 19 out of 30 (30% and 63.3%) positive, respectively. Our results favored sucrose floatation technique enhanced with immunofluorescense assay for detecting contaminated protozoa in water samples in general laboratories and in the real practical setting.

CZT detectors, which are compound semiconductors that have been widely used recently for gamma-ray detection purposes, are difficult to detect neutrons because direct interaction with them does not occur unlike gamma-rays. In this paper, a method of detecting and determining energy levels (fast neutrons and thermal neutrons) of neutrons, in addition of identifying energy and nuclide of gamma-rays, and evaluating gamma dose rates using a CZT semiconductor detector is described. Neutrons may be detected by a secondary photoelectric effect or compton scattering process with a characteristic gamma-ray of 558.6 keV generated by a capture reaction (¹¹³Cd + ¹n → ¹¹⁴Cd + 𝛾) with cadmium (Cd) in the CZT detector. However, in the case of fast neutrons, the probability of capture reaction with cadmium (Cd) is very low, so it must be moderated to thermal neutrons using a moderator and the material and thickness of moderator should be determined in consideration of the portability and detection efficiency of the equipment. Conversely, in the case of thermal neutrons, the detection efficiency decreases due to shielding effect of moderator itself, so additional CZT detector that do not contain moderator must be configured. The CZT detector that does not contain moderator can be used to evaluate energy, nuclide, and gamma dose-rate for gamma-rays. The technology proposed in this paper provides a method for detecting both neutrons and gamma-rays using a CZT detector.

Wire ropes are used in a myriad of various industrial applications such as elevator, mine hoist, construction machinery, lift, and suspension bridge. Especially, wire rope of crane is important component to container transfer. If it happens wire rope failures in operating, it may lead to safety accident, economic power loss by productivity decline, competitive power decline of container terminal and so on. To solve this problem, we developed wire rope fault detecting system as a portable instrument, and this system is consisted of 3 parts that fault detecting part using hall sensor, permanent magnets and analog unit, and digital signal processing part using data acquisition card, monitoring part using wavelet transform, denoising method. In this paper, a wire rope is scanned by this system after makes several broken parts on the surface of wire rope artificially. All detected signal has external noise or disturbance according to circumstances. So, we applied to discrete wavelet transform to extract a signal from noisy data that was used filter. In practical applications of denoising, it is shown that wavelet pursue it with little information loss and smooth signal display. It is verified that the detecting system by denoising has good efficiency for inspecting faults of wire ropes in service. As a result, by developing this system, container terminal could reduce expense because of extension of wire ropes exchange period and could competitive power. Also, this system is possible to apply in several fields like that elevator, lift and so on.

A variety of methods for detecting the location of an underground water pipeline are being used across the world; the current main methods used in South Korea, however, have the problems of low precision and efficiency and the limitations in actual application. On this, this study developed locator capable of detecting the location of a water pipe by the use of an IMU sensor, and technology for using the extended karman filter to correct error in location detection and to plot the location on the coordinate system. This study carried out a tract test and a road test as basic experiments to measure the performance of the developed technology and equipment. As a result of the straight line, circular and ellipse track tests, the 1750 IMU sensor showed the average error of 0.08-0.11%; and thus it was found that the developed locator can detect a location precisely. As a result of the 859.6-m road test, it was found that the error was 0.31 m in case the moving rate of the sensor was 0.3-0.6 m/s; and thus it was judged that the equipment developed by this study can be applied to long-distance water pipes of over 1 km sufficiently. It is planned to evaluate its field applicability in the future through an actual pipe network pilot test, and it is expected that locator capable of detecting the location of a water pipe more precisely will be developed through research for the enhancement of accuracy in the algorithm of location detection.

메시지전달 프로그램에서 발생하는 메시지경합은 프로그램의 비결정적 수행결과를 초래하므로 효과적인 디버깅을 위하여 탐지되어야 한다. 메시지경합을 탐지하는 기존의 도구는 임의의 메시지를 수신하는 모든 사건에서 경합이 발생한다고 보고한다. 그러나 메시지들이 전송되는 논리적인 통신채널이 서로 다르면 임의의 메시지를 수신하는 사건에서 경합이 발생하지 않을 수도 있으므로, 기존 도구의 부정확한 탐지정보는 프로그래머의 디버깅 작업을 더욱 어렵게 한다. 본 논문에서는 메시지 송수신 사건간의 병행성과 메시지들의 논리적 통신채널을 검사하여 보다 정확하게 메시지경합을 탐지하는 도구인 MPIRace-Check를 제안하다. 본 도구는 vector timestamp를 이용하여 프로그램 수행 중에 메시지를 전송하는 송수신 사건들간의 병행성을 검사하고, 메시지 부가정보를 이용하여 메시지들의 논리적인 통신채널이 동일한지를 검사하여 메시지경합을 탐지한다. 실험에서는 MPI_RTED와 벤치마크 프로그램을 이용하여 본 도구가 프로그램 수행 중에 효율적으로 모든 경합을 정확하게 탐지함을 보인다. 따라서 본 도구는 메시지경합을 정확하게 탐지하여 프로그래머의 디버깅 부담을 줄이고 신뢰성이 있는 병렬 프로그램의 개발을 가능하게 한다.

The widely used motors in HEV(Hybrid Electric Vehicles) are IPMSM(Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) which has no rotor heat, higher efficiency and advantageous in volume and weight comparing with other motors. For vector control of IPMSM, position information of rotor is required but Resolver is mainly used as the detecting sensor. However, the use of position sensors will reduce the system reliability of hybrid electric vehicles. In this paper, a way to control the motor by sensorless was proposed at the event of sensor failure. We also implemented IPMSM sensorless operation by the expanded EMF(Electro Motive Force) voltage way and harmonic voltage which is applying in the low speed area. And we proposed how to change with sensorless control by detecting the position sensors failure and verified it through experiments.
