In this paper, we present a video rate control scheme for storage and delivery in which the time-varying viewing interests are controlled by human gaze. To track the gaze, the pupil's movement is detected using the three-step process : detecting face region, eye region, and pupil point. To control bit rates, the quantization parameter (QP) is changed by considering the static parameters, the video object priority derived from the pupil tracking, the target PSNR, and the weighted distortion value of the coder. As results, we achieved human interfaced visual model and corresponding region-of-interest rate control system.

Robust power delivery and distribution are considered one of the major challenges in electronic devices today. As a technology develops (i.e. frequency and complexity, increase and size decreases), both power density and power supply noise increase, and voltage supply margin decreases. In addition, thermal problem is induced due to high power and poor power distribution. Until now most of studies to improve power delivery and distribution have been focused on device circuit or system architecture designs. Interconnect process technologies to resolve power delivery issues have not greatly been explored so far, but recently it becomes of great interest as power increases and voltage specification decreases in a smaller chip size.

In the past, when the credit card was delivered to the customer, the postal agreement and receipt were signed by customer. The repossessed documents were sent back to the card company through the reorganization process. The card company checks the error by scanning and keeps it in the document storage room. This process is inefficient in cost and personnel due to delivery time, document print out, document sorting, image scanning, inspection work, and storage. Also, the risk of personal data spill is very high in the process of providing personal information. The proposed system is a service that receives a postal agreement and a receipt to a recipient when signing a credit card, signing the mobile image instead of paper, and automatically sending it to the card company server. We have designed a system that can protect the cost of paper documents, complicated work procedures, delivery times and personal information. In this study, we developed 'u-paperless' and secure credit card delivery system applying electronic document and security system.

Minimizing the cylinder wear and the consumption rate of cylinder oil in a large two-stroke diesel engine is of great economic importance. A motor-driven cylinder lubricator for Sulzer RT-flex large two-stroke diesel engines developed by authors is in need of modifying the lubricating system to lubricate cylinder parts optimally by an electronically controlled quill device according to changes of engine load and revolution speed. In order to apply the developed accumulating distributor to an integrated cylinder lubricator by the electronically controlled system as the third research stage, the lubricating system is improved in the electronically controlled quill device with a solenoid valve. In this study, the effects of lubricator revolution speed, driving pressure and cylinder back pressure on oil feed rate, maximum discharge and delivery pressures are experimentally investigated by using the integrated cylinder lubricator system with an accumulated distribution by the electronic control. It is found that the oil feed rate of the developed integral cylinder lubricator system is less than that of the motor-driven cylinder lubricator by the electronically controlled quill system equipped with an accumulating distributor because of the decrease of delivery speed by increasing the maximum delivery pressure in the same experimental condition.

Future mobile communications face enormous challenges as traditional voice services are replaced with increasing mobile multimedia and data services. To address the vast data traffic volume and the requirement of user Quality of Experience (QoE) in the next generation mobile networks, it is imperative to develop efficient content distribution technique, aiming at significantly reducing redundant data transmissions and improving content delivery performance. On the other hand, in recent years cloud computing as a promising new content-centric paradigm is exploited to fulfil the multimedia requirements by provisioning data and computing resources on demand. In this paper, we propose a cooperative caching framework which implements State based Content Distribution (SCD) algorithm for future mobile networks. In our proposed framework, cloud service providers deploy a plurality of cloudlets in the network forming a Distributed Cloud Service Network (DCSN), and pre-allocate content services in local cloudlets to avoid redundant content transmissions. We use content popularity and content state which is determined by content requests, editorial updates and new arrivals to formulate a content distribution optimization model. Data contents are deployed in local cloudlets according to the optimal solution to achieve the lowest average content delivery latency. We use simulation experiments to validate the effectiveness of our proposed framework. Numerical results show that the proposed framework can significantly improve content cache hit rate, reduce content delivery latency and outbound traffic volume in comparison with known existing caching strategies.

Recently, the weight of high-quality multimedia contents is explosively growing out of the network total traffic. This steep increase of media contents to require huge traffic does not contribute to the generation of revenue streams and it leads to the situation of dumb pipe to trouble network providers into the big burden of investment on the network expansion. Accordingly, the transfer to the smart network to enable the effective delivery of large-scale media is imminently challenging issue to the network providers to seek the profitable business. The smart network revolves around the technologies to enhance end-to-end quality and fair usage with network resources and to optimize the traffic for the contents delivery over the concept of Content-Centric Network. In this paper, we propose an architecture and fundamental functions suitable for the smart network and suggest improved test results through the construction of an experimental network.

The drone delivery service as a new important business is emerging worldwide. American DHL parcel service is already running the delivery business using drones, and the Google, Amazon, and china's Alibaba, Baidu are also preparing for the same business. However, there are some problems in security and safety since the heavy parcels flies over the people walking down streets, so many things must be considered. The problems can be solved by communicating among drones to avoid collision. Therefore, the efficient network performance is essential, and to resolve the problem, in this paper, an efficient routing protocol is suggested by the Opnet simulator. The drone intercommunication network of MANET is designed and simulated for the efficient routing protocol.

Many researchers worldwide have been making a lot of effort to find sustainable clean energy source to replace the current fossil fuels. However, solar energy is considered as the ultimate energy solution to supply the world total power consumption. Light can be used for lighting, heating, wired and wireless communications, etc. Moreover, even light-driven motors which can directly convert optical energy into kinetic energy are studied recently. In this paper, we analyze optical energy delivery through multi-core optical fibers. Our estimation shows that an optical power of 2 kW can be transmitted through a multi-core fiber and an optical power of >10 MW can be transmitted through a bundle of optical fibers with a diameter of several centimeters. It seems competitive compared with the electric power delivery through a copper cable.

Data delivery is very challenging in VANETs because of its unique characteristics, such as fast topology change, frequent disruptions, and rare contact opportunities. This paper tries to explore the scope of 3G-assisted data delivery in a VANET within a budget constraint of 3G traffic. It is started from the simple S_Random (Srand) and finally reached the 3GSDD, i.e., the proposed algorithm. The performance evaluation of different algorithms is done through the two metrics delivery ratio and average delay. A third function utility is created to reflect the above two metrics and is used to find out the best algorithm. A packet can either be delivered via multihop transmissions in the VANET or via 3G. The main challenge is to decide which set of packets should be selected for 3G transmissions and when to deliver them via 3G. The aim is to select and send those packets through 3G that are most sensitive and requiring immediate attention. Through appropriate communication mechanism, these sensitive information are delivered via VANET for 3G transmissions. This way the sensitive information which could not be transmitted through normal VANET will certainly find its destination through 3G transmission unconditionally and with top priority. The delivery ratio of the packets can also be maximized by this system.
