In general, multiple mobile hosts (MH) access at a base station (BS) that terminates the wired link and relays data flow to the wireless link in wired and wireless heterogeneous network. In this network, the BS is tend to be a bottleneck and to degrade a network performance. Many studies have been done throughout several protocol layers. Especially on the transport layer, many techniques were studied to enhance TCP performance. But most of them are concerned to enhance TCP throughput and TCP fairness is hardly considered. In this paper, an algorithm for enhancing TCP fairness is proposed and its performance is verified by ns-2 simulation.

A numerical method to efficiently secure necessary design informations of the hydraulic characteristics of rubble mound breakwater was attempted here. The method combines the exterior wave field with the interior wave field which is formulated incorporating porous media flow inside the breakwaters. An approximate method based on the long wave assumption was used for the exterior wave field while a boundary element method was used for the interior wave field. A hydraulic experiment was also performed to verify the validity of the numerical analysis. The numerical results were compared with experimental data and results from existing formulae. They generally agreed in both reflection and transmission coefficients. The calculated pore pressures also showed a similar pattern with experimental data, even if they gave some significant differences in their values fur some cases. The main cause of such differences can be attributed to the strongly nonlinear wave field occurring on the frontal slope of the breakwater. The direct input of dynamic pressures(measured from hydraulic experiment) into the numerical method was suggested as a promising method to enhance the predictability of pore pressures.

In previous paper Pseudomonas sp. Ks-96 isolated from the bioconversion into pyrogallol from gallic acid . Continuous bioconversion of pyrogallol was carried out using rotatory disc contactor immobilized Pseudomonas sp. Ks-96 . Enzyme activity of gallate decarboxylase released from Pseudomonas sp. Ks-96 were shown at the highest activity on 24h incubation. Culture media containing gallic acid supplied on the flow rate of 20m${\ell}$/h until thickness of cells wall reached steady state. Bioconversion rate of pyrogallol from gallic acid showed at highest level ranging from 18hr to 36h according to time courses. Continuous bioconversion of pyrogallol using rotating disc contactor was about 82% and 80% between 6 and 8 days at the feeding rate of 300m${\ell}$ per hour in the medium containing 15g/${\ell}$ gallic acid.

최근 전 세계적으로 심각해지는 물 부족 현상과 수질오염으로 대량의 원수를 빠른 시간 내에 여과하기 위한 여과장치의 개발 및 효율성 향상을 위한 연구의 필요성이 증가되고 있다. 특히 여과필터의 내부구조에 의해 유동이 편중되는 현상이 발생하면 여과효율 및 여과필터 유지관리에 문제가 발생되기 때문에 최적의 여과필터를 설계하는 것이 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수리모형실험으로 검토하기에 어려움이 있는 여과기 내부구조에 대한 유동특성을 수치해석을 이용하여 검토하였다. 수치해석은 유한요소법 기반의 수치모형으로 여과기 내부를 상세하게 모의할 수 없기 때문에 유한체적법 기반인 ANSYS CFX 모형을 이용하였다. 여과기 내 여과필터는 두께 2.0 mm, 공극율 25%로 가정하고 다공성 기법(porous media)을 적용하였다. 검토를 위한 경계조건은 유입부에 목표 취수량, 유출부에 대기압 조건을 적용하였으며, 여과기에 비해 매우 작게 구성된 여과필터 내부의 유동특성을 검토하기 위해 여과기는 최소 3.0 mm, 여과필터는 1.0 mm의 격자를 적용하였다. 현재 실제 여과시설에 적용되고 있는 여과기 제품 형상을 기준으로 여과기 내부 흐름공간의 크기 및 각도 조정에 따른 유동특성을 검토하여 여과효율을 비교하였으며 통과유량, 유속, 유속벡터 등을 검토하여 균등한 유량과 유속이 발생되는 최적의 여과장치 구조를 도출하였다. 본 연구에서 여과기 내부 구조 변경에 따른 유동특성 검토를 통해 도출된 최적의 여과기 내부크기 및 각도에 대한 설계인자는 여과기 내 여과필터의 효율을 증가시킬 뿐만 아니라 내구성 증진에 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다.

Self-potential (SP) surveys measure naturally occurring differences in electrical potential in the absence of artificial sources and have been applied to various fields since the first application in mineral explorations. Among various causes of SP occurrences, streaming potential is generated by the flow of groundwater, and makes SP surveys suitable for the exploration of groundwater table fluctuation, fractures, sinkholes and landslide occurrences. Recently, there has been many studies that applied SP surveys to monitor water leakage through dikes and embankments. In this review paper, we first review the characteristics and theoretical backgrounds of streaming potential in saturated or unsaturated porous media to introduce it in the embankment among various application field. After the review of the background theory, we review the past cases of field SP surveys on dikes and embankments and also the characteristics of field streaming potential data in the surveys. Further, by analyzing past studies of qualitative as well as quantitative interpretation of SP survey data, we show the possibility of quantitative interpretation of streaming potential data obtained on dikes and embankments. Consequently, it is hope that this review paper helps researches on SP surveys on dikes and embankments, and provides basis for interpretation methods of the SP data to identify leaked area and further leakage rate (or permeability).

The story is formed by the flow of the development and resolution of the conflict between the characters. Namely, the story consists of conflict setting, development, and resolution. Character region is an important expression technique to describe the emotions or states of characters and the relationship between characters and the environment. The purpose of this paper is to propose a method for detecting the transition of conflict from the graph of character region's change. To this end, we present a method of generating a change graph of a character region in a movie by calculating the character region and a method of detecting a conflict transition scene from a graph of character region's change. To verify the performance of the proposed method, an experiment was conducted to extract conflict transition scenes for 7 movies, and performance evaluation results of 73.57% accuracy and 77.26% recall were obtained. This proves that it is possible to extract conflict transition scenes based on the character region.

As the number of videos uploaded on live streaming platforms rapidly increases, the demand for providing highlight videos is increasing to promote viewer experiences. In this paper, we present novel methods for predicting highlights using chat logs and audio data in videos. The proposed models employ bi-directional LSTMs to understand the contextual flow of a video. We also propose to use the features over various time-intervals to understand the mid-to-long term flows. The proposed Our methods are demonstrated on e-Sports and baseball videos collected from personal broadcasting platforms such as Twitch and Kakao TV. The results show that the information from multiple time-intervals is useful in predicting video highlights.

In installation of groundwater wells, grouting materials are injected between the groundwater borehole and the inner casing in order to prevent infiltration of contaminated groundwater from the top soil layers into wells. The injection device of grouting materials is commonly composed of an inlet head device with an expansion packer, a cylinder capable of storing the grouting materials, and an air cylinder. In this work, two types of common grouting materials, silicon and cement materials, were tested for their performances as grouting media. For silicon. silicon was mixed with clay or calcite, and tested for their tensile strength and underwater reactivity. Both silicon-clay and silicon-calcite mixtures had adequate flow and adhesiveness. For cement material, general cement, ultra-rapid harding cement, and natural cement were respectively mixed with three different soil types including coarse-grained granite, fine-grained granite, and gneiss, and direct shearing tests were conducted after hardening. Under grouting depth condition of 30 m, the minimum adhesive strength was greater for weathered gneiss than non-weathered gneiss with its maximum values obtained from the mixtures of ultra rapid-harding cement.

Hearing - impaired children who have difficulty hearing and hearing go through pronunciation training. The purpose of this study is to provide the pronunciation training system based on digital contents that can be used for repeated hearing training while maintaining interest in hearing - impaired children. For this purpose, we conducted an interview survey for users and experts. Based on the results, we developed a digital content based pronunciation training system. Finally, to verify the effect of the digital service implemented, the user test was conducted for the hearing - impaired children. As a result of the interview, repeated training and interest factors were found to be essential factors affecting pronunciation training. In implementing digital services, we have used fairy tales and a variety of interactive elements to derive children's interests and designed a user flow that can train multiple words and sentences for effective repetition training. As a result of the test, this digital content was evaluated positively.

Currently, as part of the ICT Smart City, the company is building C-ITS(Cooperative-Intelligent Transport Systems) for solving urban traffic problems. In order to realize autonomous driving service with C-ITS, the role of advanced road infrastructure is important. In addition to the study of mid- to long-term C-ITS and autonomous driving services, it is necessary to present more realistic solutions for road traffic safety in the short term. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a highway accident detection alarm system that can detect and analyze traffic flow and risk information, which are essential information of C-ITS, based on IoT guard rail and provide immediate alarm and remote control. Intelligent IoT guard rail is expected to be used as an intelligent advanced road infrastructure that provides data at actual road sites that are required by C-ITS and self-driving services in the long term.
