다양한 과학 분야와 공학 분야에서는 그들이 다루고 있는 특정한 주제의 정보를 좀 더 신속하고, 명확하게 사용자에게 전달하기 위해서 여러 가지 정보 가시화(information visualization) 기법을 사용한다. 정보를 가시화 할 때는 기본적으로 세 가지 과정을 거치는데, 원천 데이터(raw data)로부터 데이터 모델(data model)로 변환하고, 변환된 데이터 모델을 가시화 구조상(visual structure)에 매핑(mapping)시킨 후 정보화 모델(information model)로 변환하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 특정 행사가 진행되고 있는 건물내부에서 발생하는 시간, 공간적인 정보를 정리한 도표 메타포(table metaphor)를 토대로, 해당 데이터 모델로부터 추출한 다양한 정보를 3 차원 지도로 구성된 정보화 모델 상에 반영하기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 또한, 정보를 단순히 공간상에 반영하기 보다는 사용자의 관심영역(interest area)에 따른 정보의 공간적 의미에 중점을 두어 3차원 공간상에 표현하였다.

An object tracking system, which uses an omni-directional camera, is proposed in this work. First, we construct a mapping table, which describes the relationships between image coordinates and omni-directional angles Then, we develop a surveillance system to detect unexpected objects automatically from omni-directional images. Finally, we generate perspective views for detected objects by using the mapping table. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides efficient performances.

Video data compression is a major key technology in the field of multimedia applications. Variable-length coding is the most popular data compression technique which has been used in many data compression standards, such as JPEG, MPEG and image data compression standards, etc. In this paper, we present memory efficient VLC decoder architecture for MPEG-2 application which can achieve small memory space and higher throughput. To reduce the memory size, we propose a new grouping, remainder generation method and merged lookup table (LUT) for variable length decoders (VLD's). In the MPEG-2, the discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficient table zero and one are mapped onto one memory whose space requirement has been minimized by using efficient memory mapping strategy The proposed memory size is only 256 words in spite of mapping two DCT coefficient tables.

We present a flash memory system with low cost and high performance for solid-state disk. The proposed flash system is constructed as a SLC with hot blocks and a MLC with cold blocks. Either the SLC or the MLC is selectively accessed on the basis of a position bit in a mapping table. Our results show that the system enables the SLC size to be reduced by about 80% relative to a conventional SLC while maintaining similar performance. And also, our system can improve a performance by above 60% comparing with a conventional MLC.

As a kind of 2D spatial coordinate transform, image warping is a basic image processing technique utilized in various applications. Though image warping algorithm is composed of relatively simple operations such as memory accesses and computations of weighted average, real-time implementations on embedded vision systems suffer from limited computational power because the simple operations are iterated as many times as the number of pixels. This paper presents a real-time implementation of a look-up table(LUT)-based image warping using an FPGA. In order to ensure sufficient data transfer rate from memories storing mapping LUT and image data, appropriate memory devices are selected by analyzing memory access patterns in an LUT-based image warping using backward mapping. In addition, hardware structure of a parallel and pipelined architecture is proposed for fast computation of bilinear interpolation using fixed-point operations. Accuracy of the implemented hardware is verified using a synthesized test image, and an application to real-time lens distortion correction is exemplified.

This paper describes two algorithms for technology mapping of multiple output functions into interesting and popular FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) that lise look-up table memories. For improvement of technology mapping for FPGA, we use the functional decomposition method for multiple output functions. Two algorithms are proposed. The one is the Roth-Karp algorithm extended for multiple output functions. The other is the novel and efficient algorithm which looks for common decomposition functions through the decomposition procedure. The cost function is used to minimize the number of CLBs and nets and to improve performance of the network. Finally we compare our new algorithm with previous logic design technique. Experimental results show significant reduction in the number of CLBs and nets.

The CMS(color management system) software was to enable consistent color reproduction from original to reproduction. The CMS was to create RGB monitor and printer characterization profiles and then use the profiles for device independent color transformation. The implemented CMM(color management module) used the CIELAB color space for the profile connection. Various monitor characterization model was evaluated for proper color transformation. To construct output device profile, SLI(sequential linear interpolation) method was used for the color conversion from CMYK device color to device independent CIELAB color space and tetrahedral interpolation method was used for backward transformation. UCR(under color removal) based black generation algorithm was used to construct CIELAB to CMYK LUT(lookup table). When transforming the CIE Lab colour space to CMYK, it was possible to involve the gray revision method regularized in the brightness into colour transformation process and optimize the colour transformation by black generation method based on UCR technique. For soft copy colour proofing, evaluating several monitor specialism methods showed that LUT algorithm was useful. And it was possible to simplify colour gamut mapping by constructing both the look-up table and the colour gamut mapping algorithm to a reference table.

The structural model of midship section is within the scope of STEP AP218. It supports to represent the ship structure, but most of shipyards and classification societies exchange the information using 2D drawings at the present. To translate the 2D information into the ship structure model of STEP AP218, we analyze the 2D midship section information of KR-TRAS of Korean Register of shipping, and include the transverse members information with the 3D model. We also define the mapping table and the mapping relationships between two data structures. With this mapping table we develop the translator for the midship section, and visualize the translated ship structure model using a STEP viewer. The ship structure model can be used to exchange information between design departments, and through the lifecycle of design, analysis, and maintenance.

This paper proposes the method that design CLUT(color look-up table) simultaneously processing gamut mapping and color space conversion using only CLUT without complex computation. After CLUT is constructed using scanner gamut and printer gamut, the scanner gamut is extended to include original scanner gamut. This extended scanner gamut is used as input CIE $L^{*}$ $a^{*}$ $b^{*}$ values for CLUT. Then CMY values are computed by using gamut mapping. Input RGB image of scanner is converted into CIE $L^{*}$ $a^{*}$ $b^{*}$ by using regression function. CIE $L^{*}$ $a^{*}$ $b^{*}$ values of scanner are converted into CMY values without computation of additional gamut mapping using the proposed CLUT. In the experiments, the proposed method resulted in the similar color difference, but reduced the complexity computation than the direct computing method to process gamut mapping and color space conversion respectively.espectively.ively.

Recently e-business such as online financial trade and online shopping using mobile computes are widely spread. Most of mobile computers use NAND flash memory-based storage devices for storing data. Flash memory storage devices use a software called flash translation layer to translate logical address from a file system to physical address of flash memory by using mapping tables. The legacy FTLs have a problem that they must maintain very large mapping tables in the RAM. In order to address this issues, in this paper, we proposed a new caching scheme of mapping tables. We showed through the trace-driven simulations that the proposed caching scheme reduces the space overhead dramatically but does not increase the time overhead. In the case of online transaction workload in e-business environment, in particular, the proposed scheme manifests better performance in reducing the space overhead.
