This paper deals with the design and implementation of a TCSC (Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor) simulator, which is a module for an analog type power system simulator. Principally, it presents configuration of controller hardware/software and its experimental results. An analog type power system simulator consists of numerous power system components, such as various types of generator models, scale-downed transmission line modules, transformer models, switches and FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission System) devices. It has been utilized for the verification of the control algorithm and the study of system characteristics analysis. This TCSC simulator is designed for 50% line compensation rate and considered for damping resister characteristic analysis. Its power rate is three phase 380V 20kVA. For hardware extendibility, its controller is designed with VMEBUS and its main CPU is TMS320C32 DSP (Digital Signal Processor). For real time control and communications, its controller is applied to the RTOS (Real Time Operation System) for multi-tasking. This RTOS is uC/OS-II. The experimental results of capacitive mode and inductive mode operations verify the fundamental operations of the TCSC.

내장형 시스템은 우리들의 생활에 커다란 변화를 가져왔으며, 많은 적용분야와 다양한 기능을 갖추고 있어서 일상 생활에 널리 사용되고 있다. 문제는 이러한 기기들이 마이크로 컨트롤러에 가해지는 전기적 잡음과 전자기 방해가 많은 환경에서 사용되어지고 있다는 점이다. 따라서 이러한 환경에서는 시스템의 안정적인 운영을 도울 수 있는 기술중의 하나인 Watchdog Timer(WDT)가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 WDT를 이용한 시스템 오류제어를 실시간 운영체제인 $UbiFOS^{TM}$에 적용하였다.

This paper proposes a new model by combining an infinite-server queueing model for multi-task processing software system with a perfect debugging model based on Markov process with two types of faults suggested by Lee et al. (2001). We apply this model for module and integration testing in the testing process. Also, we compute several measure, such as the expected number of tasks whose processes can be completed and the task completion probability are investigated under the proposed model.

This paper presents a hierarchical real-time operation control and monitoring scheme of the FMS/CIM center which has been implemented at the Automation and Systems Research Institute of Seoul National University. The hierarchical structure of the whole scheme consists of three lavers. The upper layer is in charge of on-line scheduling, computer network control, shop-floor monitoring and command generation for AGV dispatching, machining, assembly, inspection, set-up, etc. The middle layer has six modules, which are installed in the FMS host computer with the upper layer and run on the multi-tasking basis. Each module is connected to one of six cell controllers distributed in the FMS model plant and transfers operation command down to each cell controller through the Ethernet/TCP-IP local area network. The lower layer is comprised of six cell control software modules for machining cell, assembly cell, inspection cell, set-up stations. AS/RS and AGV. Each cell controller reports the status of the manufacturing facilites to the middle layer as well as ecxecuting the appropriate sequence control of the manufacturing processes.

전원 공급이 제한되거나 전원 공급이 불가능한 소형 요트, 작업선, 바지선 등에도 항해 안전을 위한 다양한 항법장치가 필요하고, 해양사고 발생 시 사고원인을 분석하기 위한 기능이 필요하다. 그러나 기존 상선 및 수상레저용 개별 항법 장치는 고가, 대용량 전원공급, 조작의 어려움, 넓은 설치 공간의 필요 등의 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 3축 반도체 가속도 센서와 3축 반도체 경사 센서 및 다양한 기상 측정 센서와 CCD 카메라, 방수 캡슐에 내장된 메모리 등을 이용한 소형 스마트 항법 장치(Multi-Tasking Integrated Navigation System, MINS)를 설계하였다. 기존에 개발된 다양한 기술과 상용 센서 등을 이용하면 MINS 개발이 가능함을 알았고, 이러한 MINS 개발에 필요한 시스템을 제안하였다.

As personal computers have been recently improved in performance, the multi tasking of running several applications at the same time has been generalized. Since only one task space is provided for performing such tasks on Windows operating system, a number of computer users feel inconvenient. In this paper, we propose a 3D Virtual Desktop System which can show a process of switching task spaces in 3D motion using DirectX. The proposed system can provide a computer user with more task spaces and the intuitive UI(User Interlace) such as Compiz of Linux.

The multimedia that is characterized by multi-media, multi-features, multi-representations, huge volume, and varieties, is rapidly spreading out due to the increasing of application domains. Thus, it is urgently needed to develop a multimedia information system that can retrieve the needed information rapidly and accurately from the huge amount of multimedia data. For the content-based retrieval of moving picture, picture information is generally used. It is generally used when video is segmented. Through that, it can be a structural video browsing. The tasking that divides video to shot is called video segmentation, and detecting the cut for video segmentation is called cut detection. The goal of this paper is to divide moving picture using HMMD(Hue-Mar-Min-Diff) color model and edge histogram descriptor among the MPEG-7 visual descriptors. HMMD color model is more familiar to human's perception than the other color spaces. Finally, the proposed retrieval system is implemented as hardware.

In this paper, we implemented the object scanning with nxtOSEK which is an open source platform. nxtOSEK consists of device driver of leJOS NXJ C/Assembly source code, TOPPERS/ATK(Automotive real time Kernel) and TOPPERS/JSP Real-Time Operating System source code that includes ARM7 specific porting part, and glue code make them work together. nxtOSEK can provide ANSI C by using GCC tool chain and C API and apply for real-time multi tasking features. We experimented the 3D scanning with ultra sonic and laser sensor which are made directly by laser module diode and experimented the measurement of scanning the object by knowing x, y, and z coordinates for every points that it scans. In this paper, the laser module is the dimension of $6{\times}10[mm]$ requiring 5volts/5[mW], and used the laser light of wavelength in the 650[nm] range. For detecting the object, we used the beacon detection algorithm and as the laser light swept the objects, the photodiode monitored the ambient light at interval of 10[ms] which is called a real time. We communicated the 3D scanning platform via bluetooth protocol with host platform and the results are displayed via DPlot graphic tool. And therefore we enhanced the functionality of the 3D scanner for identifying the image scanning with laser sensor modules compared to ultra sonic sensor.

RTOS in the embedded system is a powerful tool for the design of multi-tasking. However, previous RTOS has large proportion in the MCU with limited memory. So it is difficult to apply RTOS. In this paper, I removed less frequently used features from the traditional RTOS, and designed lightweight RTOS that schedules and manages the resources with minimal code. I used techniques to obtain user memory using sharing stack, and to reduce the overhead at context. Considering ratio of kernel and applications, the RTOS designed in this paper is available on the MCU with more than 4KB of program memory.

This paper presents an implementation method of Profibus interface software using FMS(Fieldbus Message Specification). The Profibus interface software is implemented on PC which is widely used as an industrial computer as well as a commercial embedded controller called IUC(Intelligent Universal Controller). In order to enable the Profibus interface software to handle many application tasks and communication services, two kinds of real-time/multi-tasking operating system, OS-9 and CTask, are utilized. We also develop an experimental model of Profibus-based automation system, and evaluate the performance of the Profibus network. Through experiments, the user layer level message latency is measured with respect to the change of message length, message generation interval and TRT(Target Rotation Time). The results of experiment are compared with those of a simulation model which comprises only the physical and data link layers of Profibus. The results of this study shows that the message latency in the user layer level occupies fairly a large part of the total message latency.
