Since construction projects are large and complex, it is especially important to provide concurrent construction process to BIM models with construction automation. In particular, the schematic Quantity Take-Off (QTO) estimation on the BIM models is a strategy, which can be used to assist decision making in just minutes, because 70-80% of construction costs are determined by designers' decisions in the early design stage. This paper suggests a QTO process and a QTO prototype system within the building frame of Open BIM to improve the low reliability of estimation in the early design stage. The research consists of the following four steps: (1) analyzing Level of Detail (LOD) at the early design stage to apply to the QTO process and system, (2) BIM modeling for Open BIM based QTO, (3) checking the quality of the BIM model based on the checklist for applying to QTO and improving constructability, and (4) developing and verifying a QTO prototype system. The proposed QTO system is useful for improving the reliability of schematic estimation through decreasing risk factors and shortening time required.

The present study applied wavelet transform and artificial neural networks (ANNs) for the prediction of daily TOC data. TOC data were transformed into denoised data by the wavelet transform and the noise-reduced data were used for the prediction model by artificial neural networks. For the application of wavelet transform, Daubechies wavelet of order 10 ('db10') was used as a basis function and decomposed the TOC data up to fifth level with five detail components and one approximation component. ANNs were calibrated with the input data of the segregated TOC data corresponding to the details from second to fifth level and the approximation. Consequently, the ANNs model for the prediction of daily TOC data showed the best result when it had seventeen hidden nodes in its layer.

The BIM techniques which manages information over the life cycle of construction project based on the 3-dimensional model are developing in the direction of integrated construction management including planning, design, analysis, estimation, 3D simulation and so on. The estimation model based on the BIM has different detail level and model information. In this study, the LOD of estimation model is catched for the bridge structures. The library classes are defined with construction information classification system, and the quantities of resources are calculated by class parameter using Microstation API. Finally, the automated estimation system using BIM based library is verified by the integrated model for adjustments of level of detail.

In terrain visualization, the quadtree is the most frequently used data structure for progressive mesh generation. The quadtree provides an efficient level-of-detail selection and view frustum culling. However, most applications using quadtrees are performed by the CPU, since the hierarchical data structure cannot be manipulated in a programmable rendering pipeline. For this reason, quadtree-based methods show lower performance and higher dependancy of CPU in comparison to GPU-based methods. We present a quadtree-based terrain-rendering method for GPU execution that uses vertex multiplication. It offers higher performance than previous CPU-based quadtree methods, without loss of image quality.

The Windows registry is a hierarchical database where the configuration data of a system or application programs is stored. In this paper, we presented and implemented a registry virtualization algorithm and measured its performance. The registry virtualization algorithm presented in the paper is called Copy-One-level On Write-Open(COOWO) that is a modified version of general Copy On Whte(COW) method to make it suitable for registry virtualization. In this paper, we implemented the proposed algorithm as a dynamically loadable library in Windows and applied it to many Windows application programs. This paper is meaningful since we described a registry virtualization algorithm in detail in situation where we can not find papers that describe the registry virtualization in detail, and we could find the performance of the algorithm can be used in the real applications.

본 논문에서는 서로 다른 개수의 정점을 가지는 두 다면체 사이의 점진적 다면체 모델 표현(Progressive Mesh Representation)을 계산하는 휴리스틱 방법을 제시한다. 정점의 개수가 각각 n, k개 인 두 다면체 모델 $M^n$, $M^k$ (n > k)에 대하여 $M^n$에서 서로 다른 k개의 정점을 선택한다. 선택된 k개의 정점을 기준으로 $M^n$의 모든 정점에 대한 클러스터링을 수행하여 k개의 정점군(Vertex Set)을 생성한다. $M^n$을 간략화하여 k개의 정점만을 가지는 모델 $M^{k'}$의 위상정보(Topology)를 $M^k$와 동일하게 유지하기 위하여 $M^n$ 정점군들의 위상정보를 수정한다. 수정 생성된 정점군 내에서 선분병합(Edge Collapse)을 수행하면, 위상정보를 유지하면서 $M^n$에서 $M^k$로 변화하는 점진적 다면체 모델 표현을 얻을 수 있다. $M^{k'}$과 $M^k$의 정점간의 기하학적 위치차이를 선형보간하여 선분병합이 일어날때 마다 반영하면 $M^n$에서 $M^k$로 기하정보를 부드럽게 유지하면서 변화하는 점진적 다면체 모델 표현을 얻을 수 있다. 본 논문의 연구결과는 기존의 DLoD(Discrete Level of Detail)를 지원하는 게임을 CLoD(Continuous Level of Detail)를 지원하는 게임으로 확장하는 등의 다양한 컴퓨터 그래픽스 응용문제에 사용할 수 있다.

This paper describes a multi-level simulation technique and its implementation, which accurately solve voltages and currents of circuits descreibed at mixed levels of abstractions. A metho to form a tightly coupled simulation environment is proposed and, starting from a description of a circuit, simulation set-up and analysis procedure of the multi-level simulator for a transient response are presented. Circuit and behavioral simulation techniques and their implementations composing the multi-level simulation are explained in detail. Most of the algorithms implemented in the simulation are based upon the standard simulation techniques in order to obtain the reliability and accuracy of conventinoal simulators. Simulation examples show that the multi-level simulator can analyze circuits containing highly nonlinear behavioral models without loss of accuracy provided the behavioral models are accurate enough.

Three-level PWM rectifiers applied in medium voltage applications usually operate at low switching frequency to keep the dynamic losses under permitted level. However, low switching frequency brings a heavy cross-coupling between the current components $i_d$ and $i_q$ with a poor dynamic system performance and a harmonic distortion in the grid-connecting current. To overcome these problems, a mathematical model based on complex variables of the three-level voltage source PWM rectifier is firstly established, and the reasons of above issues resulted from low switching frequency have been analyzed using modern control theory. Then, a novel control strategy suitable for the current decoupling control based on the complex variables for $i_d$ and $i_q$ is designed here. The comparisons between this kind of control strategy and the normal PI method have been carried out. MATLAB and experimental results are given in detail.
