멀티미디어 데이터 처리나 암호화 알고리즘같은 계산량이 많고 마른 시간안에 처리되어야하는 어플리케이션들을 처리하기 위하여 최근의 컴퓨팅 환경은 재구성가능한 시스템과 일반적인 마이크로 프로세서가 결합된 시스템을 폭넓게 활용하고 있다. 이러한 시스템의 시장적응성을 높이기 위해서는 프로토타입을 제작하기 전에 설계변수에 따른 성능수치를 이미 예측하여 최소의 비용으로 시스템의 수행시간 및 자원제약사향을 만족할 수 있는 구조를 찾아내는 것이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 Y-chart 설계방법의 기본 개념을 Hybrid 시스템에 적용가능하도록 확장하여, 재구성 가능한 시뮬레이터를 개발하였고, 이를 기반으로 H.263 인코더 모델을 어플리케이션모델로 하고 FPGA와 일반적인 프로세서를 사용하는 가상의 시스템을 하드웨어 모델로하여 설계공간탐색을 진행하였다. 설계공간 탐색을 통한 시뮬레이션 결과는 시스템 설계자들에게 실제 포로토타입을 구축하지 않고 최적의 설계변수를 결정할 수 있게 하여 설계시간과 설계비용을 현저하게 줄여줄 것으로 기대된다.

In video coding systems, an effective rate control method is one of the most improtant issues for the good video quality. This paper presents an adaptive rate control scheme based on the buffer fullness, quantization, and buffer utilization for very low bit rate communication lines, such as 16kbit/s, 24bit/s, and so on. The strategy is implemented on H.263, whichis a vide coding algorithm for narrow band telecommunication channels up to 64kbit/s recommended by ITU-T SG15, to show the effectiveness. The simulation result shows that the suggested rate control scheme has better SNR performance and buffer utilization of source coder than those of linear and non-linear[9] buffer control strategies.

This paper proposes the use of wavelet packet transform in a transform based video coding scheme, which is mainly used in low/very low bit-rate video coding schemes i.e. H.263 standard. In the experiments, the discrete cosine transform in the video coding scheme is replaced by the wavelet packet transform, and the improved performance in term of peak signal to noise ratio is measured and compared with the results obtained from the coding scheme implementing the ordinary wavelet transform. The experimental results show an impressive improvement obtained from the use of wavelet packet transform.

In this paper, we present a design of mpeg-4 video codec chip to reduce the power consumption using frame level clock gating and motion estimation skip scheme. It performs 30 grames/s of codec (encoding and decoding) mode with quarter-common intermediate format(QCIF) at 27MHz. A novel low-power techniques were implemented in architectural level, which is 35% of the power dissipation for a conventional CMOS design. This chip performs MPEG-4 Simple Profile Level 2(Simple@L2) and H.263 base mode. Its contains 388,885 gates, 662k bits memory, and the chip size was 9.7 mm x 9.7 mm which was fabricated using 0.35 micron 3-layers metal CMOS technology.

The aerodynamic performance of a shrouded tail rotor in hover has been studied by using a compressible inviscid flow solver on unstructured meshes. The numerical method is based on a cell­centered finite-volume discretization and an implicit Gauss-Seidel time integration. The results show that the performance of an isolated rotor without shroud compares well with experiment. In the case of a shrouded rotor, correction of the collective pitch angle is made such that the overall performance matches with experiment to account for the uncertainties of the experimental model configuration. Details of the flow field compare well with the experiment confirming the validity of the present method.

A particle method recognized as one of the gridless methods has been developed to investigate the nonlinear free-surface motions interacting to the structures. The method is more feasible and effective than convectional grid methods for solving the non-linear free-surface motion with complicated boundary shapes. The right-handed side of the governing equations for incompressible fluid, which includes gradient, viscous and external force terms, can be replaced by the particle interaction models. In the present study, the developed method is applied to the dam-broken problem on dried- and wet-floor and its adequacy will be discussed by the comparison with the experimental results.

We propose a new hierarchical motion estimator architecture that supports the advanced prediction mode of recent low bit-rate video coders such as H.263 and MPEG-4. In the proposed VLSI architecture, a basic searching unit (BSU) is commonly utilized for all hierarchical levels to make a systematic and small sized motion estimator. Since the memory bank of the proposed architecture provides scheduled data flow for calculating 8$\times$8 block-based sum of absolute difference (SAD), both a macroblock-based motion vector (MV) and four block-based MVs are simultaneously obtained for each macroblock in the advanced prediction mode. The proposed motion estimator gives similar coding performance compared with full search block matching algorithm (FSBMA) while achieving small size and satisfying the advanced prediction mode.

A practical method of adaptive rate allocation to source and channel codings for an independent loss channel is proposed for Internet video. It is based on the observations that the values of residual loss probabilities at the optimal code rates for different packet loss probabilities are closely clustered to the average residual loss probability for a transmission frame size n in RS(n,k) code and for a total bit rate R. These observations aye then exploited to find the code rate for maximum PSNR. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a near-optimal bit-rate allocation in the joint source-channel coding of H.263 and RS(n,k) codings.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.263 등에서 블록정합을 위해 사용되는 움직임 추정(Motion Estimation) 기법에서 적응적 탐색 범위를 기존의 알고리듬에 적용시킴으로써 계산량을 줄이고 화질도 개선하는 방법을 제안한다 제안된 알고리듬은 먼저 이웃한 움직임 벡터(Motion Vector)의 위치를 이용하여 예상된 움직임 벡터를 찾고 이 예상된 움직임 벡터의 X, Y 값의 크기를 작은 값, 중간 값, 큰 값, 세 가지로 분류해서 탐색범위를 적응적으로 변화시켜 움직임 벡터가 있을 확률이 큰 범위를 집중적으로 찾는다 그리고 각 분류에서 작은 값일 때는 전역 탐색을 적용하고 큰 값일 때는 기존의 알고리듬을 적용시키고 중간 값 일 때는 3단계탐색 기법을 적용시켜 더 적합한 움직임 벡터를 찾도록 하였다. 그리고 작은 값 일 때 구해진 움직임 벡터의 SAD(Sum of Absolute Difference) 값과 이웃한 움직임 벡터의 SAD값을 비교해 국소점에 빠졌다고 판단이 되면 다시 탐색 범위를 조정해서 움직임 벡터를 구함으로써 국소점에 빠지는 경우를 줄였다.
