Flash memory has been studied as a storage medium in order to improve the performance of the system using its high computing speed in the DBMS field where frequent data access is needed. The most difficulty using the flash memory is the performance degradation and the life span shortening of flash memory coming from inefficient in-place update. Log based approaches have been studied to solve inefficient in-place update problem in the DBMS where write operations occur in smaller size of data than page frequently. However the existing log based approaches suffer from the frequent merging operations, which are the principal cause of performance deterioration. Thus is because their fixed log area management can not guarantee a sufficient space for logs. In this paper, we propose non-fixed log area management technique that can minimize the occurrence of the merging operations by promising an enough space for logs. We also suggest the cost calculation model of the optimal log sector number minimizing the system operation cost in a block. In experiment, we show that our non-fixed log area management technique can have the improved performance compared to existing approaches.

In this paper, real-time image scanning system using linescan cameras is designed. The system is specially designed to diagnose and analyse the conditions of tunnels such as crack widths through the captured images. The system consists of two major parts, the image acquisition system and the image merging system. To save scanned image data into storage media in real-time, the image acquisition system has been designed with two different control and management modules. The control modules are in charge of controlling the hardware device and the management modules handle system resources so that the scanned images are safely saved to the magnetic storage devices. The system can be mounted to various kinds of vehicles. After taking images, the image merging system generates extended images by combining saved images. Several tests are conducted in laboratory as well as in the field. In the laboratory simulation, both systems are tested several times and upgraded. In the field-testing, the image acquisition system is mounted to a specially designed vehicle and images of the interior surface of the tunnel are captured. The system is successfully tested in a real tunnel with a vehicle at the speed of 20 km/h. The captured images of the tunnel condition including cracks are vivid enough for an expert to diagnose the state of the tunnel using images instead of seeing through his/her eyes.

The DISCOVER Project (${\underline{D}}istributed$ ${\underline{I}}nformation$ ${\underline{S}}ervices$ for ${\underline{C}}limate$ and ${\underline{O}}cean$ products and ${\underline{V}}isualizations$ for ${\underline{E}}arth$ ${\underline{R}}esearch$) is a NASA funded Earth Science REASoN project that strives to provide highly accurate, carefully calibrated, long-term climate data records and near-real-time ocean products suitable for the most demanding Earth research applications via easy-to-use display and data access tools. A key element of DISCOVER is the merging of data from the multiple sensors on multiple platforms into geophysical data sets consistent in both time and space. The project is a follow-on to the SSM/I Pathfinder and Passive Microwave ESIP projects which pioneered the simultaneous retrieval of sea surface temperature, surface wind speed, columnar water vapor, cloud liquid water content, and rain rate from SSM/I and TMI observations. The ocean products available through DISCOVER are derived from multi-sensor observations combined into daily products and a consistent multi-decadal climate time series. The DISCOVER team has a strong track record in identifying and removing unexpected sources of systematic error in radiometric measurements, including misspecification of SSM/I pointing geometry, the slightly emissive TMI antenna, and problems with the hot calibration source on AMSR-E. This in-depth experience with inter-calibration is absolutely essential for achieving our objective of merging multi-sensor observations into consistent data sets. Extreme care in satellite inter-calibration and commonality of geophysical algorithms is applied to all sensors. This presentation will introduce the DISCOVER products currently available from the web site, http://www.discover-earth.org and provide examples of the scientific application of both the diurnally corrected optimally interpolated global sea surface temperature product and the 4x-daily global microwave water vapor product.

This paper introduces novel functionally integrated logic elements which are conceptuallized for large scale integrated circuits. Efforts are made to minimize the gate size as well as to reduce the operational voltage, without sacrificing the speed performance of the gates. The process used was a rather conventional collector diffusion isolation(CDI) process. New gate structures are formed by merging several transistors of a gate in the silicon substrate. Thested elements are CML(Current Mode Logic) and EECL (Emitter-to-Emitter Coupled Logic)gates. The obtained experimental results are power-delay product of 6~11pJ and delay time/gate of 1.6~1.8 ns, confirming the possibility of these novel gate structures as a VLSI-candidate.

In this paper, a novel parallel Viterbi decoding scheme is proposed to decrease the decoding latency and power consumption for the software-defined radio (SDR) system. It implements a divide-and-conquer approach by first dividing a block into a series of subblocks, then performing independent Viterbi decoding for each subsequence, and finally merging the surviving subpaths into the final path. Moreover, a network-on-chip-based SDR platform is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed parallel Viterbi decoding scheme. The experiment results show that our scheme can speed up the Viterbi decoding process without increasing the BER, and it performs better than the current state-of-the-art methods.

Decision tree algorithms are used extensively for data mining in many domains such as retail target marketing, fraud dection, data reduction and variable screening, interaction effect identification, category merging and discretizing continuous variable, etc. CHAID(Chi-square Automatic Interaction Detector), is an exploratory method used to study the relationship between a dependent variable and a series of predictor variables. CHAID modeling selects a set of predictors and their interactions that optimally predict the dependent measure. In this paper we explore CHAID algorithm in view of accuracy and speed by sampling proportion.

A virtual vessel traffic control system is introduced to contribute to prevent a marine accident such as collision and stranding from happening. Existing VTS has its limit. The virtual vessel traffic control system consists of both data acquisition by satellite remote sensing and a simulation of traffic environment stress based on the satellite data, remotely sensed data And it could be used to provide timely and detailed information about the marine safety, including the location, speed and direction of ships, and help us operate vessels safely and efficiently. If environmental stress values are simulated for the ship information derived from satellite data, proper actions can be taken to prevent accidents. Since optical sensor has a high spatial resolution, JERS satellite data are used to track ships and extract their information. We present an algorithm of automatic identification of ship size and velocity. It lastly is shown that based on ship information extracted from JERS data, a qualitative evaluation method of environmental stress is introduced.

In the area of data clustering in high dimensional space, one of the difficulties is the time-consuming process for computing vector similarities. It becomes worse in the case of the agglomerative algorithm with the group-average link and mean centroid method, because the cluster similarity must be recomputed whenever the cluster center moves after the merging step. As a solution of this problem, we present an incremental method of similarity computation, which substitutes the scalar calculation for the time-consuming calculation of vector similarity with several measures such as the squared distance, inner product, cosine, and minimum variance. Experimental results show that it makes clustering speed significantly fast for very high dimensional data.

The decision tree approach is most useful in classification problems and to divide the search space into rectangular regions. Decision tree algorithms are used extensively for data mining in many domains such as retail target marketing, fraud dection, data reduction and variable screening, category merging, etc. CHAID(Chi-square Automatic Interaction Detector) uses the chi-squired statistic to determine splitting and is an exploratory method used to study the relationship between a dependent variable and a series of predictor variables. In this paper we propose CHAID algorithm by cube-based proportional sampling and explore CHAID algorithm in view of accuracy and speed by the number of variables.
