In this paper, we introduce a novel mobility model for mobile sinks in which the sinks move towards randomly distributed destinations, where each destination is associated with a mission. The novel mobility model is termed the random mobility with destinations. There have been many studies on mobile sinks; however, they merely support two extreme cases of sink mobility. The first case features the most common and general mobility, with the sinks moving randomly, unpredictably, and inartificially. The other case takes into account mobility only along predefined or determined paths such that the sinks can gather data from sensor nodes with minimum overhead. Unfortunately, these studies for the common mobility and predefined path mobility might not suit for supporting the random mobility with destinations. In order to support random mobility with destination, we propose a new protocol, in which the source nodes send their data to the next movement path of a mobile sink. To implement the proposed protocol, we first present a mechanism for predicting the next movement path of a mobile sink based on its previous movement path. With the information about predicted movement path included in a query packet, we further present a mechanism that source nodes send energy-efficiently their data along the next movement path before arriving of the mobile sink. Last, we present mechanisms for compensating the difference between the predicted movement path and the real movement path and for relaying the delayed data after arriving of the mobile sink on the next movement path, respectively. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol achieves better performance than the existing protocols.

For the determination of instantaneous centre of rotation in the mandibular movement, the habitual opening path was recorded on the sagittal tracing plate by a Gnathorecorder attached on the lower anterior teeth which was designed for this study. The opening path was demonstrated mathematically and the instantaneous centre of rotation in the opening path were calculated and plotted by computer programs, and then a computer graphic movement of the mandible was obtained according to the opening path. The hinge path of posterior border movement was graphied by the Gnathorecorder as well and demonstated mathematically. This hinge path was compared with the same obtained by Visitrainer to prove a reliability of the Gnathorecorder. The results obtained from this study were as follows. 1. The habitual opening path and hinge path obtained from the Gnathorecorder movement were expressed mathematically as follows: $y=0.11x^2-0.66x+3.09$ (equation of opening path), $y=0.04x^2+0.21x+3.71$ (equation of hinge path), and a kinematic hinge axis was not shown in the equation of kings path. 2. The early habitual opening movement of the mandible demonstrated almost a straight opening path or an arc motion with the larger radius and it's centre of rotation moved parallelly in the more rear and lower position than a kinematic hinge axis. 3. Instantaneous centre of rotation occured along with the translation of the condyle, and mandible was rotated around an axis in the close to the maximum opening and then moved toward the forward and upward position. 4. There were some similarities between the articular eminence and the movement pattern of a special point which was the kinematic hinge axis.

The purpose of this study was to improve limitations and disadvantages of the mechanical pantograph and the Visi-Trainer, and to design the reliable and reproducible device mandibular movement tracking device (MMTD) that is more simple, convenient and save the chair time than the mechanical pantograph and Visi-Trainer. MMTD was consist of head frame, horizontal bar, condylar path tracking stylus holders, anterior path tracking stylus holder, two condylar path plastic recording plates, one anterior path plastic recording plate, toggles and open occlusal clutch. To prove the reliability and reproducibility of MMTD, a five adults were selected and mandibular condylar movement was recorded one time by the mechanical pantographic tracing and MMTD. The border movement recording of the mandibular incisor (frontal, sagittal and horizontal) was also recorded by Visi-Trainer and the MMTD. The obtained results were as follows; 1. The condylar movement path (sagittal, horizontal) of the MMTD was not coincidence with that of mechanical pantograph. 2. Measurements of the angulation which established between working and balancing path records by use of the mechanical pantograph and MMTD, there was no significance. 3. In a view of MMTD's reproducibility, there was revealed almost similar recording pattern. 4. The border movement recording of the mandibular incisor by the MMTD and the Visi-Trainer showed almost same reliability and reproducibility. 5. The subjects were able to his original mandibular movements by use of open occlusal clutch in the MMTD.

A mouse is an important input device that is used in most of all computer works. A mouse control time prediction model was proposed in this study. Especially, the model described the time of mouse control that made a cursor to move within path constraints. The model was developed by a laboratory experiment. Cursor movement times were measured in 36 task conditions; 3 levels of path length, 3 levels of path width and 4 levels of target's width. 12 subjects participated in all conditions. The time of cursor movement with path constraints could be better explained by the combination of Fitts' law with steering law($r^2=0.947$) than by the other models; Fitts' law($r^2=0.740$), Steering law($r^2=0.633$) and Crossman's model($r^2=0.897$). The proposed model is expected to be used in menu design or computer game design.

In this paper, we present a path search scheme for the safe movement of the swarm of unmanned systems in unknown dangerous areas. Some of the swarm searches for the primary and secondary paths before the majority of swarm move through dangerous areas. In terms of rapid movement from the dangerous area and preparation for an accident, the primary path is searched first in the destination's direction. The secondary path is searched by considering the distance between the paths to guarantee a safe distance. The computer simulations show that the proposed scheme is suitable for the swarm of unmanned systems.

There have been many homing navigation algorithms for robotic system. In this paper, we suggest a bio-inspired navigation model. It builds path integration based on optical flow. We consider two factors on robot movements, translational movement and rotational movement. For each movement, we found distinguishable optical flows. Based on optical flow, we estimate ego-centric robot movement and integrate the path optimally. We can determine the homing direction and distance. We test this algorithm and evaluate the performance of homing navigation for robotic system.

In this paper, we propose the adaptation filtering for correcting the movement path of the recognized object by the depth information. When we recognize the object by the depth information, the path error should be occurred because of the noises in the depth information. The path error is corrected by appling the lowpass filtering, but the lowpass filtering is not efficient when the changes of the object's movement are rapid. In this paper, we apply the adaptation filtering that it gives weights adaptively as the difference between the predicted location and the measured location. To apply the adaptation filtering, we can see that the proposed method can correct accurately the path error of the radical change from simulation results.

This study attempts to understand the arrangement and spatial requisites of art pieces by materializing the visitors' path of movement in the exhibition space, as well as researching their behavior. The purpose of the research is to the guideline for planning the exhibition layout and visitors' circulation can be derived in order to correspond to the visitors' characteristic of movement and circulation-path choice. Although such guideline may have limited use, it is still significant enough to be studied. Taking three Korean art galleries as the subjects of research, this study observes the arrangement of art pieces, movement path of visitors, characteristics of the visitors' behavior and the duration time a visitor takes to view an art piece without moving around in order to understand the arrangement and spatial requisites of art pieces which correspond to the visitors' behavior. The following results have been drawn in this research and analysis; First, when there is an island type exhibition other than the ordinary on-the-wall display in the exhibition space, the visitors' choice of path changes. In short, an island type exhibition seems to be a factor that changes the visitors' path. Second, in the entrance of an exhibition space unit, most of the visitors seem to choose a path which moves counter-clockwise. Third, it is considered that well-known art pieces or art pieces with a big size shall not be displayed on the comer of the exhibition room.

In this paper, as a positioning technology for predicting the movement path of a moving object using a recurrent neural network (RNN) model, which is a deep learning network, in an indoor environment, continuous location information is used to predict the path of a moving vehicle within a local path. We propose a movement path generation technique that can reduce decision errors. In the case of an indoor environment where GPS information is not available, the data set must be continuous and sequential in order to apply the RNN model. However, Wi-Fi radio fingerprint data cannot be used as RNN data because continuity is not guaranteed as characteristic information about a specific location at the time of collection. Therefore, we propose a movement path generation technique for a vehicle moving a local path in an indoor environment by giving the necessary sequential location continuity to the RNN model.
