This paper presents a graphical windows-based software for the education and training of the transmission network use of system charge. The developed simulator consist of the main module(MMI,GUI), the power flow module(PF), the power flow tracing module(PFT) and management of usage cost DB module(UCD). Each module has a separate graphical and interactive interfacing window. To have effective education for transmission network use of system charge, the developed simulator are provided with two power system analysis methods. Input data of power system can use the format of PSS/E input data. Also calculation of power flow tracing are provided with four methods such as "Felix Wu","Modified Felix Wu", "DCLF ICRP" and "Reverse MW mile". Results of calculation for usage cost are shown on the window through the table or chart. Therefore user can confirm the detailed differences of results from each calculation method.

This paper presents an operator training simulator for power system restoration against massive black-out. The system is designed especially focused on the generality and convenient setting up for initial condition of simulation. The former is accomplished by using on line calculation methodology, and PSS/E data is used to define the initial situation. The proposed simulator consists of three major components - the Power flow(PF) module, data conversion(CONV) module and CUI subsystem. PF module calculates power flow, and then checks overvoltage of buses and overflow of lines. CONV module composes an Y-Bus array and a data base at each restoration action. The initial Y-Bus array is constructed from PSS/E data. The user friendly GUI module is developed including graphic editor and built-in operation manual. As a result, the maximum processing time for one step operation is 15 seconds, which is adequate for training purpose. Comparison with PSS/E simulation proves the accuracy and reliability of the training system.

In this paper, it is developed simulator system of 3 D.O.F parallel robot for educate of expertness. This simulator system is composed of three parts ? 3 D.O.F parallel robot, controller (hardware) and software. First, basic structure of the robot is 3 active rotary actuator that small geared step motor with fixed base. An input-link is connected to this actuator, and this input-link can connect two ball joints. Thus, two couplers can be connected to the input-link as a pair. An end-plate, which is jointed by a ball joint, can be connected to the opposite side of the coupler. A sub-link is produced and installed to the internal spring, and then this sub-link is connected to the upper and bottom side of the coupler in order to prevent a certain bending or deformation of the two couplers. The robot has the maximum diameter of 230 mm, 10 kg of weight (include the table), and maximum height of 300 mm. Hardware for control of the robot is composed of computer, micro controller, pulse generator, and motor driver. The PC used in the controller sends commands to the controller, and transform signals input by the user to the coordinate value of the robot by substituting it into equations of kinematics and inverse kinematics. A controller transfer the coordinate value calculated in the PC to a pulse generator by transforming it into signals. A pulse generator analyzes commands, which include the information received from the micro controller. A motor driver transfer the pulse received from the pulse generator to a step motor, and protects against the over-load of the motor Finally, software is a learning purposed control program, which presents the principle of a robot operation and actual implementation. The benefit of this program is that easy for a novice to use. Developed robot simulator system can be practically applied to understand the principle of parallel mechanism, motors, sensor, and various other parts.

The Bio-Inspired system is a computing model that emulates the objects in ecosystem which are evolving themselves and cooperate each other to perform some tasks. Since it could be used to solved the complex problems that have been very difficult to resolve with previous algorithms, there have been a lot of researches to develop an application based on the Bio-Inspired system. However, since this computing model requires the process of evolving and cooperating with a lot of objects and this process takes a lot of times, it has been very hard to develop an application based on this computing model. This paper presents a parallel simulator for a Bio-Inspired system that is designed and implemented with OMNeT++ on PC clusters, and proves its usefulness by showing its simulation performance for a couple of applications. In the proposed parallel simulator, the functions required in the ERS platform for evolving and cooperating between objects (called Ecogent) are mapped onto the functions of OMNeT++, and they are simulated on PC clusters simultaneously to reduce the total simulation time. The simulation results could be monitored with a GUI In realtime, and they are also recorded into DBMS for systematic analyses afterward. This paper shows the usefulness of the proposed system by analyzing its performances for simulating various applications based on Bio-Inspired system on PC clusters with 4 PCs.

In this paper, we report 3D-simulations of a plasma etching process by employing cell-removal algorithm takes into account the mask shadow effect os well as spillover errors. The developed simulator haas an input interface to take not only an analytic form but a Monte Carlo distribution of the ions. The graphic user interface(GUI) was also built into the simulator for UNIX environment. To demonstrate the capability of 3D-SURFILER(SURface proFILER), we have simulated for a typical contact hole structure with 36,000($30{\times}40{\times}30$) cells, which takes about 20 minutes with 10 Mbytes memory on sun ultra sparc 1. as an exemplary case, we calculated the etch profile during the reactive ion etching(RIE) of a contact hole wherein the aspect ratio is 1.57. Furthermore, we also simulated the dependence of a damage parameter and the evolution of topography as a function of the chamber pressure and the incident ion flux.

A power plant simulation tool ('PowerSim') has been developed with 10 years experience from the development of a plant simulator for efficient modeling of a power plant. PowerSim is the first developed tool in Korea for plant simulation with various plant component models, instructor station function and the Graphic Model Builder (GMB). PowerSim is composed of a graphic editor using general purpose design software, a netlist converter, component models, the scheduler, Instructor Station and an executive. The graphic editor generates a netlist that shows the connection status of the various plant components from the Simdiagram, which is drawn by Icon Drag method supported by GUI environment of the PowerSim. Netlist Converter normalizes the connection status of the components. Scheduler makes scheduling for the execution of the device models according to the netlist. Therefore, the user makes Simdiagram based on the plant Pipe and Instrument Drawing (P&ID) and inputs the plant data for automatic simulating execution. This paper introduces Graphic Model Builder (GMB), instructor station, executive and the detailed introduction of thermal-hydraulic modeling. This paper will also introduce basic ideas on how the simulation Diagram, based on netlist generated from general purpose design software, is made and how the system is organized. The developed tool has been verified through the simulation of a real power plant.

In this paper, we present a systematic method of extracting the input parameters of poly-Si TFT(Thin-Film Transistor) for Spice simulations. This method has been applied to two different types of poly-Si TFTs such as ELA (Excimer Laser Annealing) and SMC (Silicide Mediated Crystallization) with good fitting results to experimental data. Among the Spice circuit simulators, the PSpice has the GUI(graphic user interface) feature making the composition of complicated circuits easier. We added successfully the poly-Si TFT model of AIM-Spice to the PSpice simulator, and analyzed easily to compare the electrical characteristics of pixels without or with the line RC delay. In the comparative results, the ELA poly-Si TFT is superior to the SMC poly-Si TFT in the charging time and the kickback voltage for the TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display).
