  • In this paper, solute transport in heterogeneous aquifers using a modified Fokker-Planck equation (MFPE) is investigated. This newly developed mathematical model is characterised with a time-, scale-dependent dispersivity. A two-dimensional finite volume quadrilateral mesh method (FVQMM) based on a quadrilateral background interpolation mesh is developed for analysing the model. The FVQMM transforms the coupled non-linear partial differential equations into a system of differential equations, which is solved using backward differentiation formulae of order one through five in order to advance the solution in time. Three examples are presented to demonstrate the model verification and utility. Henry's classic benchmark problem is used to show that the MFPE captures significant features of transport phenomena in heterogeneous porous media including enhanced transport of salt in the upper layer due to its parameters that represent the dependence of transport processes on scale and time. The time and scale effects are investigated. Numerical results are compared with published results on the some problems.

  • Recently as the studies on the combined delivery over multiple transmission media are progressed, studies using MMT which is next-generation multimedia transport standard are underway. They are about transmitting video data layered by SHVC through broadcasting network and communication network based on MMT. However, it is difficult to serve synchronized UHD contents in heterogeneous network environment based on MMT, because MMT standard doesn't fully specify the information to indicate the relationship between media. Also, the service that we want to propose in this paper is a broadcasting-based service such as terrestrial broadcasting. Therefore the user must be able to watch various contents continuously. However, the MMT PI(Presentation Information) that controls the spatio-temporal layout of a content has been described as providing only one content. In this paper, we propose the structure of MXD document and MMT PI to provide continuous UHD contents service based on heterogeneous network.

  • In this paper, we propose a new functionality to Scalable Video Coding (SVC), which is the support of multiple ROIs for heterogeneous display resolution. Scalable video coding is targeted at giving temporal, spatial, and quality scalability for the encoded bit stream. Region of interest (ROI) is an area that is semantically important to a particular user, especially users with heterogeneous display resolutions. The bitstream containing the ROIs could to be extracted without any transcoding operations, which may be one of way to satisfy QoS. To define multiple ROI in SVC, we adapted FMO, a tool defined in H.264, and based on it, we propose a way to encode and decode ROIs. The proposed method is implemented on the JSVM1.0 and the functionality is verified using it.

  • In this paper, heat and mass transfer characteristics through experimental and numerical study are extensively investigated in steam reform ins reactor under given operating conditions. In order to get simulated data at outlet of the reformer, heterogeneous reactor model is incorporated. As the reaction also takes place in porous media, two medium approach is used to take into account thermally non-equilibrium phenomena between catalyst and bulk gas. In steam reforming reaction, heat transfer issue is so significant that geometrical configuration study is also conducted.

  • In this paper, we propose the fast wakeup and connection mechanisms for various energy saving schemes in order to improve QoS. First, we offer the interconnection of heterogeneous access networks via the Media Independent Information Server/Service (MIIS). Then, we propose the fast wakeup and connection mechanism for multi-interface communication systems. The proposed novel mechanism focuses on the fast provision of incoming service destined to the interface currently in energy saving mode by using MIIS-assisted interconnection. We further evaluate the performance of proposed mechanism through the numerical and experimental analysis.

  • In a centralized database system, all system components reside at a single platform. In recent years there has been a rapid trend toward the integration of information systems over multiple sites that are interconnected via a communication network, and users' needs are changed to integration of multiple information sites. Multi database System is one of solutions for integrating distributed heterogeneous databases. However the problems in multi database system are restriction in distributed environment support, limitation in integrating heterogeneous media type data, static integration, and data-only of integration. In order to solve these problems, we propose a hybrid database integration model, HyDIM. HyDIM is used for the integrating legacy multimedia data, adopting CORBA, MDS, and mediator. We demonstrate a prototype system far PDM application domain.

  • The solute transport in a two-dimensional heterogeneous porous medium is numerically studied by using a random walk particle tracking (RWPT) method. Lognormally isotropic hydraulic conductivity fields are generated by using the turning band methods with mean zero and four different values of standard deviation. The numerical transport experiments are carried out to investigate the large time and spatial effects of the variable pore velocity field on solute plumes. The behavior of the solute plume through numerical simulations is presented in terms of longitudinal and transverse spatial moments: displacement of center-of-mass, plume spread variance and skewness coefficient. It was observed that the dispersive behavior of the solute plume is strongly affected by the degree of heterogeneity in the flow domain.

  • Seamless mobility is one of the most crucial feature of telecommunication industry. Researches are going on in full swing to deal with this feature in most efficient manner. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is seen as the next generation paradigm which can facilitate seamless mobility across heterogeneous networks by segregating the control plane and data plane functionalities, and logically centralizing the control plane. In this paper, we propose a simplified Layer 2 handover mechanism for enterprise wireless networks, based on SDN framework. We present a network assisted L2 handover method using the IEEE 802.21 Media Independent Handover (MIH) protocol and SDN concepts, to achieve seamless mobility across heterogeneous networks.

  • The elastic wave equation is solved using the finite-difference method in 3D space to simulate the seismic wave propagation. It is based on the velocity-stress formulation of the equation of motion on a staggered grid. The nonreflecting boundary conditions are used to attenuate the wave field close to the numerical boundary. To satisfy the stress-free conditions at the free-surface boundary, a new formulation combining the zero-stress formalism with the vacuum one is applied. The effective media parameters are employed to satisfy the traction continuity condition across the media interface. With use of the moment-tensor components, the wide range of source mechanism parameters can be specified. The numerical experiments are carried out in order to test the applicability and accuracy of this scheme and to understand the fundamental features of the wave propagation under the generalized elastic media structure. Computational results show that the scheme is sufficiently accurate for modeling wave propagation in 3D elastic media and generates all the possible phases appropriately in under the given heterogeneous velocity structure. Also the characteristics of the ground motion in an sedimentary basin such as the amplification, trapping, and focusing of the elastic wave energy are well represented. These results demonstrate the use of this simulation method will be helpful for modeling the ground motion of seismological and engineering purpose like earthquake hazard assessment, seismic design, city planning, and etc..

  • In this paper, we propose a new framework for scalable media object to adapt the various QoS requirements in the heterogeneous networking environment. An MPEG-2 video is split into a set of scalable media objects in terms of temporal scaling and fidelity scaling. The portion of the scalable media objects is selectively delivered to adapt the QoS requirement. This framework can satisfy the various QoS requirements on bandwidth, even though the clients share a multipoint channel. By analysis on the rate-distortion characteristics of scalable media object framework, we shows our approach is feasible to support the various QoS requirements.
