In this paper, we developed placement algorithm for drafting logic schmeatics. The algorithm of this system is to base placement on signal flow as opposed to connectivity. The key idea of this algorithm is that by dividing the schematic into simpler acyclic, uni-directional graphs, called tree. Then the components of tree and their interconnections have the characteristics that they can be laid out symmetrically without any crossovers. The interconnectivity between the trees are analyzed and a placement scheme is determined for them. Also, the trees are expended into their respective components. This algorithm is divided into four main phases: Initiate, Divide, Merge, Placement.

In this paper, we propose an efficient parallelization technique of PU-level motion estimation (ME) in the next generation video coding standard, high efficiency video coding (HEVC) to reduce the time complexity of video encoding. It is difficult to encode video in real-time because ME has significant complexity (i.e., 80 percent at the encoder). In order to solve this problem, various techniques have been studied, and among them is the parallelization, which is carefully concerned in algorithm-level ME design. In this regard, merge estimation method using merge estimation region (MER) that enables ME to be designed in parallel has been proposed; but, parallel ME based on MER has still unconsidered problems to be implemented ideally in HEVC test model (HM). Therefore, we propose two strategies to implement stable parallel ME using MER in HM. Through experimental results, the excellence of our proposed methods is shown; the encoding time using the proposed method is reduced by 25.64 percent on average of that of HM which uses sequential ME.

Predictive watershed transform is a popular object segmentation algorithm which achieves a speed-up by identifying image regions that are different from the previous frame and performing object segmentation only for those regions. However, incorrect segmentation is often generated by the predictive watershed transform which uses only local information in merge-split decision on boundary regions. This paper improves the predictive watershed transform to increase the accuracy of segmentation results by using the additional information about the root of boundary regions. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is processed in a block-based manner such that an image frame is decomposed into blocks and each block is processed independently of the other blocks. The block-based approach makes it easy to implement the algorithm in hardware and also permits an extension for parallel execution. Experimental results show that the proposed watershed transform produces more accurate segmentation results than the predictive watershed transform.

This paper proposes a bit allocation algorithm using adaptive bandwidth for ADSL that uses the DMT technology. In certain cases for high attenuation loops the conventional algorithms are unable to assign data bits to the higher frequency tones, due to the power spectrum mask limitation recommended by ANSI Standard, even if the total power budget is not expended. In the proposed bit allocation algorithm, adjacent empty tones that would not be used merge into single tone, then additional bits is assigned to the merged empty tones. Because additional bits is allocated, most of the available power is used. The proposed algorithm show that total bit increase in about 2~9% bits more than about conventional "water-filling" and "bit removal" algorithms and that is able to use about 93% of the available budget Power

In this paper, we proposed a method extracting an object from background of the satellite image. The image segmentation techniques have been widely studied for the technology to segment image and to synthesis segment object with other images. Proposed algorithm is to perform the edge detection of a selected object using genetic algorithm. We segment region of object based on detection edge using watershed algorithm. We separated background and object in indefinite region using gradual region merge from segment object. And, we make GUI for the application of the proposed algorithm to various tests. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, several analysis on the satellite images are performed.

This paper describes an algorithm that can efficiently analyze the multichannel ECG signal using the frame. The input is a set of significant features (points) which have been extracted from an original sampled signal by using the split-and-merge algorithm. A signal from each channel can be hierarchical ADN/OR graph on the basis of the priori knowledge for ECG signal. The search mechanisms with some heuristics and the mixed paradigms of data-driven hypothesis formation are used as the major control mechanisms. The mutual relations among features are also considered by evaluating a score based on the relational spectrum. For recognition of morphologies corresponding to OR nodes, an hypothesis modification strategy is used. Other techniques such as instance, priority update of prototypes, and template matching facility are also used. This algorithm exactly recognized the primary points and supporting points from the multichannel ECG signals.

Image segmentation is widely used in the pre-processing stage of image analysis and, therefore, the accuracy of image segmentation is important for performance of an image-based analysis system. An efficient image segmentation method is proposed, including a filtering process for super-pixels, improved saliency map information, and a merge process. The proposed algorithm removes areas that are not equal or of small size based on comparison of the area of smoothed superpixels in order to maintain generation of a similar size super pixel area. In addition, application of a bilateral filter to an existing saliency map that represents human visual attention allows improvement of separation between objects and background. Finally, a segmented result is obtained based on the suggested merging process without any prior knowledge or information. Performance of the proposed algorithm is verified experimentally.

This paper proposes a solution for storage and retrieval problems for Resource Description Framework (RDF) data utilizing a key-value Solid State Device (SSD), considering storage, retrieval performance, and security. We propose a two-step compression algorithm to separate logical relationship and true values from RDF data-sets using the key-value SSD. This improves not only compression and storage efficiency but also storage security. We also propose a hybrid retrieval structure based on R∗-tree to enhance retrieval efficiency and implement a sort-merge join algorithm, and discuss factors affecting R∗-tree retrieval efficiency. Finally, we show the proposed approach is superior to current compression, storage, and retrieval approaches, obtaining target results faster while requiring less space, and competitive in terms of versatility, flexibility and security.

This paper proposes a new pattern matching module to overcome the increased runtime of previous algorithm using RAM, which was designed to overcome cost limitation of hash-based algorithm using CAM (Content Addressable Memory). By adopting Merge FSM algorithm to reduce the number of state, the proposed module contains state block and entry block to use in RAM. In the proposed module, one input string is compared with multiple entry strings simultaneously using entry block. The effectiveness of the proposed pattern matching unit is verified by executing Snort 2.9 rule set. Experimental results show that the number of memory reads has decreased by 15.8%, throughput has increased by 47.1%, while memory usage has increased by 2.6%, when compared to previous methods.

The tiled-display system provides a high resolution display which can be used in different applications in co-working area. The systems used in the co-working field usually save the user logs, and these log information not only makes the maintenance of the tiled-display system easier, but also can be used to check the progress of the co-working. There are three main steps in the proposed tiled display log recorder. The first step is to capture the screen shots of the tiles and send them for merging. The second step is to merge the captured tile images to form a single screen shot of the tiled-display. The final step is to encode the merged tile images to make a compressed video stream. This video stream could be stored for the logs of co-working or be streamed to remote users. Since there could be differences in capturing time of tile images, the quality of merged tiled-display could be degraded. This paper proposes a time stamp-based metric to evaluate the quality of the video stream, and a merging algorithm that could upgrade the quality of the video stream with respect to the proposed quality metrics.
