This paper proposes a novel adaptive header-based power gating structure to compensate for the performance loss and the increased wake-up time of the power gating structures induced by the negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) effect. The proposed structure consists of variable width footers based on the two-pass power gating and a new NBTI sensing circuit for an adaptive control. The simulation results of the proposed structure are compared to those of power gating without the adaptive control and show that both the circuit-delay and wake-up time dependence of the power gating structure on the NBTI stress is minimized with only 3% and 4% increase, respectively while keeping small leakage power and rush-current. In this paper, a 45 nm CMOS technology and predictive NBTI model have been used to implement the proposed circuits.

The arc-fault occurring in the customer system becomes the direct cause of electric fire. However, it is very difficult to identify the arc-fault using the existing fault detection mechanism because the magnitude of the fault current is very small. Accordingly, this paper analyzes the causes of arc fault and designs the basic detection mechanism of arc fault. And then, it proposes an signal processing-based arc-fault determination methodology which can enhance the of accuracy of the arc-fault determination by applying DFT/DWT to the voltage and current waveform. Finally, this paper showed the application methodology of the proposed signal processing based fault determination method by applying and analyzing DFT/DWT to an high voltage in-rush current waveform.

To promote the inclusion of quality of life (QOL) end-points In clinical research on cancer, the National Cancer Institute (USA) sponsored a workshop on QOL assessment In cancer clinical trials In July, 1990. Experts In clinical trials and QOL research formed four working groups to Identify current areas of cancer treatment In which QOL end-points are most Important; to discuss methodologic problems In QOL assessment; to address common problems In Implementing clinical studies with QOL end-points; and to consider statistical Issues In design, Implementation, and data analysis. Recommendations made by the working groups are summarized in this paper.

전자식 안정기의 초기구동 시, 발생되는 입력단의 높은 돌입전류는 전자식 안정기 내의 전파정류다이오드 및 능동 역률보상회로의 파손원인이 되며, 제품의 신뢰성을 감소시키는 큰 요인으로 지목된다. 따라서 안정기의 입력에서 발생되는 돌입전류를 분석하고 제한하는 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문은 250W CDM(Ceramic Discharge Metal-halide) 램프용 DBI(Dual Buck Inverter) 구조의 전자식 안정기에서 초기 구동 시 높은 돌입전류가 발생되는 원인을 분석하고, 해결책을 제시하였다.

Vessel traffic safety management means the managerial technical measures for improving the marine traffic safety in general terms. The main flow of vessel traffic safety management is that: 1) Traffic Survey, 2) Replay by Marine Traffic Flow Simulation, 3) Quantitative Assessment, 4) Policy Alternatives, 5) Prediction·Verification. In the management of vessel traffic safety, it is most important to establish assessment models that can numerically estimate the current safety level and quantitatively predict the correlation between the measures to be taken and the improvement of safety and the reduction of ship handling difficulties imposed on mariners. In this paper, the replay model for traffic flow simulation was made using marine traffic survey data, and the present traffic situation became replay in the computer. An attempt was made to rate the current safety of ports and waterways by applying the Environmental Stress model. And, as a countermeasure for traffic management, by taking of, the promotion of total traffic congestion in early morning rush hour, the correlation between traffic control rate and the reduction in ship handling difficulties imposed on mariners was predicted quantitatively.

Conflicts and interruptions caused by resource failures and rush orders require a nonlinear dynamic production management. Generally the PP&C systems used in industry presently do not meet these requirements because of their rigid concepts. Starting with the grasp of the disadvantages of current approaches, this paper presents a control structure that enables system to react to various malfunctions using a planning tolerance concept. Also, production processes are modeled by using Fuzzy-Petri-Net modeling tool in other to handle the complexity of job allocation and the existence of many disparities. On the basis of this model the developed system support the short-term shop control by rule based decision.

The world at the end of the $20^{th}$ Century has become "blue" Indeed, this past decade has witnessed a "blue rush" towards the development of violet-blue-green light emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs) based on wide bandgap III-Nitride semiconductors. And the hard work has culminated with, first, the demonstration of commercial high brightness blue and green LEDs and of commercial violet LDs, at the very end of this decade. Thanks to their extraordinary properties, these semiconductor materials have generated a plethora of activity in semiconductor science and technology. Novel approaches are explored daily to improve the current optoelectronics state-of-the-art. Such improvements will extend the usage and the efficiency of new light sources (e.g. white LEDs), support the rising information technology age (e.g. high density optical data storage), and enhance the environmental awareness capabilities of humans (ultraviolet and visible photon detectors and sensors). Such opportunities and many others will be reviewed in this presentation.

Sensitive issues are both common and problematic for health care providers because sensitive issues may interfere with the future provider-client relationship and effective care. Most current training for providers focuses on a particular issue, but this is inadequate because many issues may be sensitive, and which issues will be sensitive is unpredictable. We argue that issues become sensitive when they activate one or more of three common triggers, fear, stigma, and taboo. A cycle of negative internal and interpersonal responses to the sensitive issue often leads to unresolved health issues for clients and stress and feelings of inadequacy for providers. We recommend integrated pre-service and in-service skill building to help individual health care providers respond appropriately to a wide variety of sensitive issues. We also identify specific policies and procedures to strengthen organizational support for caregivers so that providers can address these sensitive issues effectively with their clients.

In this paper, the characteristics of LCL set-up parameters for the satellite load distribution are analyzed under the electrical system environment, implemented the LCL circuits and evaluated the performance and its behaviour. Recently, it is implemented the load distribution circuit by latching current limiter(LCL) rather than conventional fuse and relay for the protection of the satellite power system from a fault load. The LCL circuit is composed of the electrical components, not mechanical parts with the fuse and relay. When detected the over current on a fault load, it is activated to maintain the trip-off level for set-up time and then cut-off the load power by the active control. It is more flexible and provided a chance to reuse of the load in case of temporarily event, but the fuse and relay can't be used again after activating due to the physical disconnection. However, for implementation of LCL circuit, it should be carefully considered the behavior of the LCL circuit under the worst electrical system environment and applied it to define the set-up parameters related with over-current inhibition.

This paper is presents a initial starting of SST with high voltage level source. Rush current flowing as difference between capacitor level and grid level can crush the whole system. Thus, industries have used initial constituted by resistance and relay. However the initial circuit used in industries can't apply high voltage application due to isolation and economic feasible problems. Therefore many countries study method can charge capacitor with another voltage sources. Also this paper introduce method charging primary side capacitor efficiently.
