Recently, many studies are being conducted to realize high quality polishing technology, but because of high dependence on field experience and insufficient research for ultra-precision polishing technology, it is difficult to establish standardization of polishing conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine high-efficiency superfinishing conditions which are applicable in the field of machining. To achieve this, we have a developed a superfinishing device and conducted a series of polishing experiments for mechanical materials such as SM45C, Brass, Al7075, and Ti, from the perspective of oscillation speed, the rotational speed of the workpiece, contact roller hardness, contact pressure, and feed rate. From the experimental results, it was confirmed that the polishable superfinishing conditions range and efficient feed rate of polishing film can be determined.

In this paper, we propose an efficient architecture for a high-speed cell concentrator/distributor(HCCD) in an ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) switch and by analyzeing the simulation results evaluate the performance of the proposed architecuture. The proposed HCCD distributes cells from a switch link to local processors, or concentrates cells from local processor s to a switch link. This design is to guarntee a high throughput for the IPC (inter-processor communication) link in a distributed ATM switching system. The HCCD is designed in a moudlar architecture to provide the extensibility and the flexibility. The main characteristics of the HCCD are 1) Adaption of a local CPU in HCCD for improving flexibility of the system, 2) A cell-baced statistical multiplexing function for efficient multiplexing, 3) A cell distribution function based on VPI(Virtual Path Identifier), 4) A bypassing capability for IPC between processor attached to the same HCCD, 5) A multicasting capability for point-to-multipoint communication, 6) A VPI table updating function for the efficient management of links, 7) A self-testing function for detecting system fault.

Network management and anomaly detection are challenges in high-speed networks due to the high volume of packets that has to be analysed. Flow-based analysis is a scalable method which reduces the high volume of network traffic by dividing it into flows. As sampling methods are extensively used in flow generators such as NetFlow, the impact of sampling on the performance of flow-based analysis needs to be investigated. Monitoring using sampled traffic is a well-studied research area, however, the impact of sampling on flow-based anomaly detection is a poorly researched area. This paper investigates flow sampling methods and shows that these methods have negative impact on flow-based anomaly detection. Therefore, we propose an efficient probabilistic flow sampling method that can preserve flow traffic distribution. The proposed sampling method takes into account two flow features: Destination IP address and octet. The destination IP addresses are sampled based on the number of received bytes. Our method provides efficient sampled traffic which has the required traffic features for both flow-based anomaly detection and monitoring. The proposed sampling method is evaluated using a number of generated flow-based datasets. The results show improvement in preserved malicious flows.

Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM) offers the advantages of simple and robust motor construction, high speed and high efficiency over a wide operating range of torque and speed, excellent controllability. However SRM has the disadvantages of high current harmonics, and low power factor because the required output of speed and torque is produced by the discontinuous and loss of power system, and brings about the incorrect operation of electronic system. This paper deals with an energy efficient converter fed SRM system with the reduced harmonics and improved power factor. The validity of the proposed scheme is verified via experiments. We are implemented the proposed control system using 80C196KC micro-controller.

This paper proposes an adaptive RRT (Rapidly-exploring Random Tree) for path planning of high DOF multibody robotic system. For an efficient path planning in high-dimensional configuration space, the proposed algorithm adaptively selects the robot bodies depending on the complexity of path planning. Then, the RRT grows only using the DOFs corresponding with the selected bodies. Since the RRT is extended in the configuration space with adaptive dimensionality, the RRT can grow in the lower dimensional configuration space. Thus the adaptive RRT method executes a faster path planning and smaller DOF for a robot. We implement our algorithm for path planning of 19 DOF robot, AMIRO. The results from our simulations show that the adaptive RRT-based path planner is more efficient than the basic RRT-based path planner.

Nacre is an organic-inorganic composite material; it is composed of $CaCO_3$ platelet and protein. The microstructure of nacre is a matrix that is similar to bricks and mortar. Technology inspired by nature is called biomimetic technology. In this study, to make high thermal conducting ceramic composite materials using biomimetic technology, a porous green body was prepared with BN platelets. PMMA was infiltrated into the porous green body to make a composite. The microstructure of the composite was observed with FESEM, and the thermal properties were measured. The thermal conductivity of the prepared organic-inorganic composite was 4.19 $W/m{\cdot}K$.

Photoacoustic generation of ultrasound is an effective approach for development of high-frequency and high-amplitude ultrasound transmitters. This requires an efficient energy converter from optical input to acoustic output. For such photoacoustic conversion, various light-absorbing materials have been used such as metallic coating, dye-doped polymer composite, and nanostructure composite. These transmitters absorb laser pulses with 5-10 ns widths for generation of tens-of-MHz frequency ultrasound. The short optical pulse leads to rapid heating of the irradiated region and therefore fast thermal expansion before significant heat diffusion occurs to the surrounding. In this purpose, nanocomposite thin films containing gold nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), or carbon nanofibers have been recently proposed for high optical absorption, efficient thermoacosutic transfer, and mechanical robustness. These properties are necessary to produce a high-amplitude ultrasonic output under a low-energy optical input. Here, we investigate carbon nanotube (CNT)-polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composite transmitters and their nanostructure-originated characteristics enabling extraordinary energy conversion. We explain a thermoelastic energy conversion mechanism within the nanocomposite and examine nanostructures by using a scanning electron microscopy. Then, we measure laser-induced damage threshold of the transmitters against pulsed laser ablation. Particularly, laser-induced damage threshold has been largely overlooked so far in the development of photoacoustic transmitters. Higher damage threshold means that transmitters can withstand optical irradiation with higher laser energy and produce higher pressure output proportional to such optical input. We discuss an optimal design of CNT-PDMS composite transmitter for high-amplitude pressure generation (e.g. focused ultrasound transmitter) useful for therapeutic applications. It is fabricated using a focal structure (spherically concave substrate) that is coated with a CNT-PDMS composite layer. We also introduce some application examples of the high-amplitude focused transmitter based on the CNT-PDMS composite film.

Recently, high-dimensional index structures have been required for similarity search in such database applications s multimedia database and data warehousing. In this paper, we propose a new cell-based signature tree, called CS-tree, which supports efficient storage and retrieval on high-dimensional feature vectors. The proposed CS-tree partitions a high-dimensional feature space into a group of cells and represents a feature vector as its corresponding cell signature. By using cell signatures rather than real feature vectors, it is possible to reduce the height of our CS-tree, leading to efficient retrieval performance. In addition, we present a similarity search algorithm for efficiently pruning the search space based on cells. Finally, we compare the performance of our CS-tree with that of the X-tree being considered as an efficient high-dimensional index structure, in terms of insertion time, retrieval time for a k-nearest neighbor query, and storage overhead. It is shown from experimental results that our CS-tree is better on retrieval performance than the X-tree.

As the volume visualization has been applied to render medical datasets, there has been a requirement to produce high quality images. Even though nice images can be generated by using previous linear filter, high order filter is required for better images. However, it takes much time for high order resampling, so that, overall rendering time is increased. In this paper, we perform high quality volume visualization using the cardinal interpolation. By enabling the empty space leaping which reduces the number of resampling, we achieve the efficient visualization. In detail, we divide the volume data into small blocks and leap empty blocks by referring the upper and lower bound value for each block. We propose a new method to estimate upper and lower bound value of for each block. As the result, we noticeably accelerated high quality volume visualization.
