We study the page replacement algorithms for demand paging, called CFLRU/C, CFLRU/E and DL-CFLRU/E, that reduce the number of erase operations and improve the wear-leveling degree of flash memory. Under the CFLRU/C and CFLRU/E algorithms, the victim page is the least recently used dean page within the pre-specified window. However, when there is not any dean page within the window, the CFLRU/C evicts the dirty page with the lowest frequency while the CFLRU/E evicts the dirty page with the highest number of erase operations. The DL-CFLRU/E algorithm maintains two page lists called the dean page list and the dirty page list, and first finds the page within the dean page list when it selects a victim. However, when it can not find any dean page within the dean page list, it evicts the dirty page with the highest number of erase operations within the window of the dirty page list. In this thesis, we show through simulation that the proposed schemes reduce the number of erase operations and improve the wear-leveling than the existing schemes like LRU.

The objective of this work was to develop a methodology for geodetic monitoring on onshore wind towers, to ascertain the existence of displacements from object points located in the tower and at the foundation's base. The geodesic auscultation was carried out in the Gravatá 01 and 02 wind towers of the Eólica Gravatá wind farm, located in the Brazilian municipality of Gravatá-PE, using a stable Measurement Reference System. To verify the existence of displacements, pins were implanted, with semi-spherical surfaces, at the bases of the towers being monitored, measured by means of high-precision geometric leveling and around the Gravatá 02 tower, concrete landmarks, iron rods and reflective sheets were implanted, observed using geodetic/topographic methods: GNSS survey, transverse with forced centering, three-dimensional irradiation, edge measurement method and trigonometric leveling of unilateral views. It was found that in the Gravatá 02 tower the average rays of the circular sections of the transverse welds (ST) were 1.8431 m ± 0.0005 m (ST01) and 1.6994 m ± 0.0268 m of ST22, where, 01 and 22 represent the serial number of the transverse welds along the tower. The average calculation of the deflection between the coordinates of the center of the circular section of the ST22 and the vertical reference alignment of the ST1 was 0°2'39.22" ± 2.83" in the Northwest direction and an average linear difference of 0.0878 m ± 0.0078 m. The top deflection angle was 0°8'44.88" and a linear difference of ± 0.2590 m, defined from a non-linear function adjusted by Least Squares Method (LSM).

In recent days, vibration isolation system is mostly required in precise measurement and manufacturing system to reduce vibration due to external disturbances and internal actuators. Among all the vibration isolation systems, air spring is widely used because of its low resonant frequency and high damping ratio. In this study, we first analyze the passive air-spring system using leveling valve, and then design the active vibration isolation system. Because the non-linearity of pneumatic characteristics, we try to design the fuzzy controller which is better than PID controller at complex and non-linear system, and then compare them both in experiment and simulation.

Flash memory, which replaces hard disk recently, has different physical characteristics with hard disk. For the performance of flash memory based storage system, many researches over OS and file system layers has been doing. In this paper, we propose the architecture of flash memory based storage which uses information of page invalidation when file deletion occurs from upper layer. Also, we evaluate the performance of proposed system. Proposed system effectively increases IO performance by using page invalidation information to block merge and wear leveling algorithms.

The flash memory has many advantages such as low power consumption, strong shock resistance, fast I/O and non-volatility. And it is increasingly used in the mobile storage device. Many researchers are studying the YAFFS, NAND flash file system, which is widely used in the embedded device. However, the existing YAFFS has two problems. First, it takes long time to mount the YAFFS file system because it scans whole spare areas in all pages. Second, the cleaning policy of the YAFFS does not consider the wear-leveling so that it cannot guarantee the duration of data completely. In order to solve these problems, this paper proposes a new content-based YAFFS that consists of a mounting time reduction technique and a content-cleaning policy by using content-based block management. The proposed method only scans partial spare areas of some special pages and provides the block swapping which enables the wear-leveling of data blocks. We performed experiments to compare the performance of the proposed method with those of the JFFS2 system and YAFFS system. Experimental results show that the proposed method reduces the average mounting time by 82.2% comparing with JFFS2 and 42.9% comparing with YAFFS. Besides, it increases the life time of the flash memory by 35% comparing with the existing YAFFS whereas no overheat is added.

Abstract: In teleoperation field robotic system such as hydraulically actuated robotic excavator, the maneuverability and convenience is the most important part in the operation of robotic excavator. Particularly the force information is important in dealing with digging and leveling operation in the teleoperated excavator. Excavators are also subject to a wide variation of soil-tool interaction forces. This paper presents a new force reflecting joystick in a velocity-force type bilateral teleoperation system. The master system is electrical joystick and the slave system IS hydraulically actuated cylinder with linear position sensor. Particularly Pneumatic motor is used newly in the master joystick for force reflection and the information of the pressure of salve cylinder is measured and utilized as the force feedback signal. Also force-reflection gain greatly affects the excavation performance of a hydraulically actuated robotic system and it is very difficult to determine it appropriately since slave excavator contacts with various environments such as from soft soil to rock. To overcome this, this paper proposes a force-reflection gain selecting algorithm based on artificial neural network and fuzzy logic.

The geothermal heat pump systems were installed for heating and cooling of public buildings in Jincheon Eco-friendly Energy town. The heat pump system was operated at night to save on operational costs, and the cold heat was stored in thermal energy storage (TES). In this study, the performance of geothermal heat pump systems with the TES during the summer season was analyzed, and the operational costs with and without the TES were compared. The electric chiller model was used to simulate a heat pump applied without the TES system. Electric rates of each system were measured to calculate operational costs. When the TES is used in the air conditioning system, the electric load (30.4 MWh) calculated in the daytime can move to off-peak load time, and the operational cost is reduced by 36~54%.
