By feedback channel, the decoder reports the addresses of corrupted macroblocks induced by transmission errors back to the encoder With these negative acknowledgements, the encoder can make the next frame having propagated errors by using forward dependency based on GOBs and MBs of the frame happening transmission errors. The encoder can precisely calculate and track the propagated errors by examining the backward motion dependency for each of four comer pixels in the current encoding frame until before-mentioned the next frame. The error-propagation effects can be terminated completely by INTRA refreshing the affected macroblocks. Such a fast algorithm further reduce the computation and memory requirements. The advantages of the low computation complexity and the low memory requirement are Particularly suitable for real-time implementation.

Much recent attention on wireless technologies s put on topology-less wireless network, in which all nodes an be mobile and can communicate over wireless links, due to its ease of deployment, high flexibility and low expenses. One key in topology-less wireless network is mobile base stations (MBSs), which provides access points or mobile terminals (MTs) to wireless backbone network. MBSs can move to anywhere in accordance with changes in geographical distribution of MTs. They serve as dynamic odes. However, in order to utilize network resources and take full advantage of this topology-less network, MBSs must move to suitable position according to the current tate of network use. Moreover, MBSs have to consider the distance among them to avoid the crash and gap area of MBSs. Therefore, this paper proposes MBS movement algorithm by implementing push-pull method to fulfill the corporation of MBSs and considering the center of covered MTs or centroid to satisfy the MT coverage. From the simulation results, the proposed algorithm increases the performance of system when comparing with the centroid-based algoriom〔7〕, such as coverage area, MT coverage and call drops rate.

In this paper, we propose new methods to detect a scene cut and a dissolve region in compressed MPEG video sequences. The scene cut detection method uses edge images obtained using DCT AC coefficients and the dissolve detection method utilizes the macroblock type information of the MPEG stream. The proposed scene cut detection method is insensitive to brightness and can detect scene changes more precisely than the methods using DC coefficients since AC edge images can express original images more exactly than DC edge images do. The proposed dissolve detection method using the number of intra macroblocks(MBs) computationally efficient since it does not require the decoding process. Experimental results show that the proposed methods perform better in detection scene changes than conventional other methods.

This paper presents encryption techniques for digital right management solutions of MPEG-4 streams. MPEG-4 is a format for multimedia streaming and stored in the MPEG-4 file format. We designed three kinds of encryption methods, which encrypt macro blocks (MBs) or motion vectors (MVs) of I-, P-VOPs (Video Object Planes), extracted from the MPEG-4 file format. We used DES to encrypt MPEG-4 data Based on theses three methods, we designed and implemented a DRM solution for an Internet broadcasting service, which enabled a MPEG-4 data streaming, and then compared the results of decryption speed and quality of rendered video sequences to get an optimal encryption method.

Intensive computational complexity is an obstacle of enabling multiview video coding for real-time applications. In this paper, we present a fast macroblock (MB) mode selection algorithm for B frames which are based on the computational complexity analyses between the MB mode selection and reference frame selection. Three strategies are proposed to reduce the coding complexity jointly. First, the temporal correlation of MB modes between current MB and its temporal corresponding MBs is utilized to reduce computational complexity in determining the optimal MB mode. Secondly, Lagrangian cost of SKIP mode is compared with that of Inter $16{\times}16$ modes to early terminate the mode selection process. Thirdly, reference frame correlation among different Inter modes is exploited to reduce the number of reference frames. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can promote the encoding speed by 3.71~7.22 times with 0.08dB PSNR degradation and 2.03% bitrate increase on average compared with the joint multiview video model.

This study investigated and classified the various types of moderator band (MB) in relation to the anterior papillary muscle, with the aim of providing anatomical reference information and fundamental knowledge for use when repairing the congenital defects and understanding the conduction system. The study investigated 38 formalin-fixed human hearts of both sexes obtained from donors aged 38-90 years. The MB was evident in 36 of the 38 specimens (94.7%). The morphology of the MB and its connection with the APM took various forms. The MBs that had a distinct shape were classified into three types according to their shape: cylindrical column, long and thin column, and wide and flat column. Types 2 and 3 were the most common, appearing in 15 (41.7%) and 14 (38.9%) of the 36 specimens, respectively, while type 1 was observed in seven specimens (19.4%). Type 3 was divided into subtypes based on their length. The MB usually originated from a single root (91.7%), with the remainder exhibiting double roots. The pairs of roots in the latter cases had different shapes. The originating point of the MB ranged from the supraventricular crest to the apex of the ventricle. The most-common originating point was in the middle (25 of 36 specimens, 69.4%), followed by the upper third (13.9%), the lower third (11.1%), and the top fifth (5.6%) of the interventricular septum. This study has produced fundamental anatomical and clinical information that will be useful when designing cardiac surgical procedures.

This paper presents a significant contribution to aided design by conducting an analytical examination of geometric links with the aim of establishing criteria for assessing an analogy measure of the extrinsic geometric and kinematic characteristics of the Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) engine with a Geared Mechanism (GBCM) in comparison to the existing Fixed Compression Ratio (FCR) engine with a Standard-Reciprocating Crankshaft configuration. Employing a mechanical approach grounded in projective computational methods, a parametric study has been conducted to analyze the kinematic behavior and geometric transformations of the moving links. The findings indicate that in order to ensure equivalent extrinsic behavior and maintain consistent input-output performance between both engine types, precise adjustments of intrinsic geometric parameters are necessary. Specifically, for a VCR configuration compared to an FCR configuration, regardless of compression ratio and gearwheel radius, for the same crankshaft ratios and stroke lengths, it is imperative to halve lengths of connecting rods, and crank radius. These insights underscore the importance of meticulous parameter adjustment in achieving comparable performance across different engine configurations, offering valuable implications for design optimization.

Staphylococcus aureus integrated with mecA gene, which codes for penicillin-binding protein 2a, is resistant to all penicillins and other beta-lactam antibiotics, resulting in poor treatment expectations in skin and soft tissue infections. The development of a simple, sensitive and portable biosensor for mecA gene analysis in S. aureus is urgently needed. Herein, we propose a dual-toehold-probe (sensing probe)-mediated exonuclease-III (Exo-III)-assisted signal recycling for portable detection of the mecA gene in S. aureus. When the target mecA gene is present, it hybridizes with the sensing probe, initiating Exo III-assisted dual signal recycles, which in turn release numerous "3" sequences. The released "3" sequences initiate catalytic hairpin amplification, resulting in the fixation of a sucrase-labeled H2 probe on the surface of magnetic beads (MBs). After magnet-based enrichment of an MB-H1-H2-sucrase complex and removal of a liquid supernatant containing free sucrase, the complex is then used to catalyze sucrose to glucose, which can be quantitatively detected by a personal glucose meter. With a limit of detection of 4.36 fM for mecA gene, the developed strategy exhibits high sensitivity. In addition, good selectivity and anti-interference capability were also attained with this method, making it promising for antibiotic tolerance analysis at the point-of-care.

In the frame of Koreasat Project, it has been identified the task to implement a pilot satellite network module to provide LAN-to-LAn in ground system for satellite links. The pilot network will support an experiment to verify the performances of the considered applications through a satellite.This paper proposes a satellite-LAN interconnecting architecture making full use of satellite benefits and counteracting satellite demerits. The architectureprovides high quality data transmission and high perfrmance for satellite bit errors by using a connection- oriented satellite protocol which can establish multiple logical links between two nodes. As a protocol conversion method, router-type interconnection was selected to guard against problems. Based on this architecture, a satellite LAN interconnecting system has been designed, which includes a 1.8 meter antenna with a 4 watt transceiver, a satellite modem and the developed satellite network interface. The system can support high speed transmission rates of up to 1.544 Mbs and superior network management as well.

When the golf club hits the ground prior to making contact with the golf ball, we define it as 'fat shot'. The aim of this research was to investigate the difference between normal shot and fat shot in golf. Five candidates playing as recreational golfer participated in this research and they were all right-handed people. Time phase between each event, wrist cocking angle, elbow extension-flexion angle, backswing height, pelvis angle, thorax angle, L-GRF, R-GRF, pelvis linear velocity, pelvis angular velocity and COG path were calculated. For statistical analysis the paired T-test was used. An early un-cocking, an early right elbow extension and impact with leaving their weight behind foot were not reasons of fat shot. Backswing height, X-Factor, pelvis angle and thorax rotation angle were not different between normal shot and fat shot. But we could find a pattern of abrupt pelvic movement and weight shift to target direction just before impact in case of fat shot. In addition fat shot showed time-delayed and small value of pelvis linear velocity pattern to upward during downswing phase as against normal shot.
