  • In this paper, we propose a QoS (Quality of Service)-aware and cooperative resource reservation scheme using cross-layer link adaptation for wireless high definition video transmission through UWB (Ultra Wide Band) network with D-MAC (Distributed Medium Access Control). A wireless high definition video transmission system usually requires stable high throughput even without line-of-sight, e.g., a destination device in another room separated by a wall. Since the WiMedia D-MAC supporting DRP (Distributed Reservation Protocol) scheme causes lots of DRP resource reservation conflicts due to failure of beacon detection in wireless channel environment, overall performances of the WiMedia D-MAC can be deteriorated. And the current WiMedia MAC standard has not considered QoS provisioning even though QoS parameters such as a range of service rates are provided to each traffic stream. Therefore, we propose Relay DRP protocol with QoS-based relay node selection criterion, which makes a relay path to avoid DRP resource reservation conflicts and guarantee QoS more stably through cross-layer link adaptation of cooperative relay transmission scheme and is compliant with the current WiMedia D-MAC protocol. Simulation results demonstrate performance improvements of the proposed method for throughput and QoS provisioning.

  • 예비 슬라이스(Redundant picture)는 에러가 발생하기 쉬운 환경에서 비디오가 전송될 때 에러를 보상하기 위한 H.264/AVC 부호화 표준의 도구들 중에 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 예비 슬라이스의 삽입으로 인해 발생하는 오버헤드 비트와 손실률을 고려한 LA-RDO(Loss-aware rate-distortion optimization) 모델을 제시하며 제안하는 모델에 기초해서 예비 슬라이스의 삽입 여부를 결정한다. 실험결과는 제안하는 방법이 참조 소프트웨어(JM: Joint Model)에 있는 HRP(Hierarchical redundant picture)와 비교했을 때 평균 0.5dB의 PSNR이 증가함을 보였다. 특별히 낮은 비트율에서 상대적으로 높은 성능을 보이므로 비디오 화상 회의와 같이 낮은 비트의 영상을 요구하는 무선 전송 환경에 적합할 것으로 보인다.

  • The general Wi-Fi network connection structure is that a number of IoT (Internet of Things) sensor nodes are directly connected to one AP (Access Point) node. In this structure, the range of the network that can be established within the specified specifications such as the range of signal strength (RSSI) to which the AP node can connect and the maximum connection capacity is limited. To overcome these limitations, multiple middleware bridge technologies for dynamic scalability and load balancing were studied. However, these network expansion technologies have difficulties in terms of the rules and conditions of AP nodes installed during the initial network deployment phase In this paper, an intelligent edge computing IoT device is developed for constructing an intelligent autonomous cluster edge computing network and applying it to real-time road danger context aware and notification system through an intelligent risk situation recognition algorithm.

  • Recent advances in WSN and the wide use of social sensing technologies have been changing our daily lives. In the process of creating intertwining connections and interconnections greatly influencing on the way we communicate with other people, WSN and social communication media have a number of important capabilities that support their utilization in distress broadcast during emergency situations. This paper proposes a system model that makes better utilization of WSN and social sensing capabilities in sending out distress messages to the intended recipients more efficiently and effectively.

  • Recently, NAND-type flash memory has been regarded to be new promising storage media for large-scale database systems. For flash memory to be employed for that purpose, we need to reduce its expensive update cost caused by the inablity of in-place updates. To remedy such a drawback in flash memory, we propose a new flash-aware buffering scheme that enables virtual flushing of dirty pages. To this end, we slightly alter the tradional algorithms used for the logging scheme and buffer management scheme. By using the mechanism of virtual flushing, our proposed buffering scheme can efficiently prevent the frequenct occureces of page updates in flash storage. Besides the advantage of reduced page updates, the proposed viurtual flushing mechanism works favorably for shorneing a recocery time in the presense of failure. This is because it can reduce the time for redo actions during a recovry process. Owing to those two benefits, we can say that our scheme couble be very profitable when it is incorporated into cutting-edge flash-based database systems.

  • Privacy paradox is a paradoxical behavior that provides personal information even though you are concerned about privacy. Social media users are also often concerned about their personal information exposure. It is even reluctant to describe personal information in profile. However, some users describe their personal information in detail on their profile, provide it freely when others request it, or post their own personal information. The survey was conducted using Google Docs centered on Facebook users. Structural equation model analysis was used for hypothesis testing. As an independent variable, we use personal information infringement experiences. As a mediator, we use privacy indifference, privacy concern, and the relationship with the act of providing personal information. Social media users have become increasingly aware of the fact that they can not distinguish between the real world and online world by strengthening their image and enhancing their image in the process of strengthening ties, sharing lots of information and enjoying themselves through various relationships. Therefore, despite the high degree of privacy indifference and high degree of privacy concern, the phenomenon of privacy paradox is also present in social media.

  • Background: To assess women's awareness from diverse sections of society in Delhi regarding various aspects of breast cancer (BC) - perceptions, signs and symptoms, risk factors, prevention, screening and treatment. Materials and Methods: Community-level survey was undertaken in association with the Indian Cancer Society (ICS), Delhi during May 2013-March 2014. Women attending BC awareness workshops by ICS were given self-administered questionnaires before the workshop in the local language to assess BC literacy. Information provided by 2017 women was converted into awareness scores (aware=1) for analysis using SPSS. Awareness scores were dichotomized with median score=19 as cut off, create more aware and less aware categories. Bivariate and multivariate analysis provided P-values, odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Broadly, 53.4% women were aware about various aspects of BC. Notably, 49.1% women believed that BC was incurable and 73.9% women believed pain to be an initial BC symptom. Only 34.9% women performed breast self-examination (BSE) and 6.9% women had undergone clinical breast-examination/mammography. 40.5% women had higher awareness (awareness score > median score of 19), which was associated with education [graduates (OR=2.31; 95%CI=1.78, 3.16), post-graduates (OR=7.06; 95%CI=4.14, 12.05) compared to ${\leq}$ high school] and socio-economic status (SES) [low-middle (OR=4.20; 95%CI=2.72, 6.49), middle (OR=6.00; 95%CI=3.82, 9.42) and upper (OR=6.97; 95%CI=4.10, 11.84) compared to low SES]. Conclusions: BC awareness of women in Delhi was suboptimal and was associated with low SES and education. Awareness must be drastically increased via community outreach and use of media as a first step in the fight against BC.

  • This paper introduces the implementation of an user-aware system using a visible light communication and its operations. The user-aware system using a visible light communication consists of the transmitter based on the Android system and the receiver based on an open-source controller. In the transmitter, user's personal information data is encoded and converted to visible light signals by the Android camera interface. In the receiver, the photodiode module receives the incoming visible light signals and converts to electrical signals and the open-source controller, that is arduino processes the received data. The processing module finds the start bit of 0111 to determine the user information data from the packet for the burst-mode communication. According to the experimental results, the proposed system successfully transmits and receives visible light data with the manchester encoding.

  • 최근 컴퓨터 기술과 네트웍 기술의 급속한 발전과 보급으로 유선환경에서뿐만 아니라 무선환경에서도 이동단말기를 이용하여 네트웍에 접속하여 다양한 작업을 수행할 수 있게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 멀티미디어 스트리밍 서비스시에 이동단말기의 에너지 상태에 따라 단말기로 전송되는 프레임의 수를 조절하는 기법을 이용함으로써 적은 컴퓨팅 자원을 사용하면서 동적으로 스트리밍을 조절하는 기법을 제시한다. 이를 위해 기존의 연구에서 사용하던 트랜스코딩방식 대신 실시간 스트리밍 서비스를 위해 개발된 RTP를 이용하여 프레임율을 조절하는 시스템을 설계 및 구현하여 성능을 측정하였다.
