  • This paper describes in detail the processing path leading to successful phase images stitching in digital holographic microscope for the extension of the field of view. It applies FIJI Grid/Collection Stitching Plugin, which is a general tool for images stitching, non-specific for phase images. The FIJI plugin is extensively supported by aberration and phase offset correction. Comparative analysis of different aberration correction methods and data processing strategies is presented, together with the critical analysis of their applicability. The proposed processing path provides good background for statistical phase analysis of cell cultures and digital phase pathology.

  • The Existing Protect schedulings are mathematical nodes upon which probability control is based. In fact, under the mechatronics environment in the new product design and development, statistical information is very poor or sometimes non-existent. Probabilistic PERT/CPM methods are not always satisfying because those methods suppose that it is possible to apply central- limit theorem and there exists a critical path which is much mart critical than all the other paths. Fuzzy project scheduling is possibility based scheduling. For this reason, the Fuzzy Project Scheduling essential to design, development and control the new product under the mechatranics environment. This paper deals with a modeling on the project scheduling which use fuzzy set theory. Fuzzy concepts in the project scheduling are shown to be very useful and easy to work with in the R & D system.

  • In a project schedule, it is possible to reduce the time required to complete a project by allocating extra resources for critical activities. However, accelerating a project causes additional expense. This issue is addressed by finding optimal set of time-cost alternatives and is known as the time-cost trade-off problem in the literature. The aim of this study is to identify the optimal set of time-cost alternatives using a multiobjective teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm integrated with the non-dominated sorting concept and is applied to successfully optimize the projects ranging from a small to medium large projects. Numerical simulations indicate that the utilized model searches and identifies optimal / near optimal trade-offs between project time and cost in construction engineering and management. Therefore, it is concluded that the developed TLBO-based multiobjective approach offers satisfactorily solutions for time-cost trade-off optimization problems.

  • This paper presents a complete S-shape feed rate scheduling approach (CSFA) with confined jerk, acceleration and command feed rate for parametric tool path. For a Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) tool path, the critical points of the tool path where the radius of curvature reaches extreme values are found firstly. Then, the NURBS curve is split into several NURBS sub-curves or blocks by the critical points. A bidirectional scanning strategy with the limitations of chord error, normal/tangential acceleration/jerk and command feed rate is employed to make the feed rate at the junctions between different NURBS blocks continuous. To improve the efficiency of the feed rate scheduling, the NURBS block is classified into three types: short block, medium block and long block. The feed rate profile corresponding to each NURBS block is generated according to the start/end feed rates and the arc length of the block and the limitations of tangential acceleration/jerk. In addition, two compensation strategies are proposed to make the feed rate more continuous and the arc increment more precise. Once the feed rate profile is determined, a second-order Taylor's expansion interpolation method is applied to generate the position commands. Finally, experiments with two free-form NURBS curves are conducted to verify the applicability and accuracy of the proposed method.

  • This study tried to examine how interdependence, communication, and the exercise of power in cosmetics distribution channel would affect satisfaction. In this study we investigated the effects of their communication and the exercise of noncoercive power of department store (or mart). We conducted with managers of the shops which were entered to department store (or mart). 131 copies were collected and 119 copies were used for analysis after the exclusion of 12 copies. Brand image and sales policy influenced satisfaction, but customers were not statistically significant. In addition, communication in distribution path had the moderating effect on the relationship between interdependence and satisfaction, and on the relationship between interdependence and noncoercive power. Sales policy and brand image in the relationship between department store(or mart) and the shops opened inside are critical factors for satisfaction, but customers are highly likely to become a factor with different meaning.

  • Flooding is known to be an effective routing mechanism not only in circuit switched networks but also packet switched networks since it minimizes the time required for up calls and does not have to maintain routing tables or distance tables by periodically intercommunicating among all the network nodes. However, one main drawback of it is the overhead on the control message signaling channels, In the paper, we propose an overlaying scheme on the existing mechanism that retains the desired properties of flooding, yet provides congestion control to the network. This is done by utilizing the wasted search messages to inform the network of the conditions of each path from one node to another. The overhead is to maintain a path table in each node. However, this overhead is not so critical. Also, this scheme can take advantages further by limiting the extent of message propagation through the network and by incorporating trunk reservation schemes additionally.

  • There are various research challenges in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) that need to be focused until an extensive deployment of it becomes conceivable. Design and development of a scalable routing algorithm for VANETs is one of the critical issue due to frequent path disruptions caused by the vehicle's mobility. This study aims to provide a novel road-aware routing protocol for vehicular networks named as Two-level hierarchical Hybrid Road-Aware (THERA) routing for vehicular ad hoc networks. The proposed protocol is designed explicitly for inter-vehicle communication. In THERA, roads are distributed into non-overlapping road segments to reduce the routing overhead. Unlike other protocols, discovery process does not flood the network with packet broadcasts. Instead, THERA uses the concept of Gateway Vehicles (GV) for the discovery process. In addition, a route between source and destination is flexible to changing topology, as THERA only requires road segment ID and destination ID for the communication. Furthermore, Road-Aware routing reduces the traffic congestion, bypasses the single point of failure, and facilitates the network management. Finally yet importantly, this paper also proposes a probabilistical model to estimate a path duration for each road segment using the highway mobility model. The flexibility of the proposed protocol is evaluated by performing extensive simulations in NS3. We have used SUMO simulator to generate real time vehicular traffic on the roads of Gangnam, South Korea. Comparative analysis of the results confirm that routing overhead for maintaining the network topology is smaller than few previously proposed routing algorithms.

  • Recently, research for Network-on-chip(NoC) is progressing. However, due to the increase of system complexity and demand on high performance, conventional copper-based electrical interconnect would be faced with the design limitation of performance, power, and bandwidth. As an alternative to these problems, combined use of Electrical Interconnects(EIs) and Optical Interconnects(OIs) has been introduced. In this paper we propose efficient routing optimization strategy and hybrid switch architecture, which use OIs for critical path and EIs for non-critical path. The proposed method shows up to 25% performance improvement and 38% power reduction.

  • Potential Energy Surface(PES)를 양자 계산을 통해 알아내는 것은 화학 반응을 이해하는 데에 큰 도움이 된다. 이를테면 Transition State(TS)의 configuration을 알 수 있고, 따라서 reaction path와 활성화 에너지 값을 예측하여, 진행시키고자 하는 화학반응의 이해를 도울 수 있다. 하지만 PES를 그리기 위해서는 해당 분자의 다양한 configuration에 대한 singlet point energy 계산이 필요하기 때문에, 계산적인 측면에서 많은 비용을 요구한다. 따라서 product와 reactant의 구조와 같은 critical point의 정보를 이용하여 최소한의 configuration을 sampling하여 전체 PES를 재구성하는 기계학습 알고리즘을 개발하여 다차원 PES 상에서의 화학반응의 예측을 가능하게 하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 Barbaralane의 두 안정화 된 구조의 critical point로 하여 이 주변을 random normal distribution하여, B3LYP/6-31G(d) level의 DFT 계산을 통해 relaxed scanning하여 구조와 에너지를 구하였으며, 이 정보를 Support Vector Regression(SVR) 알고리즘을 적용하여 PES를 재구현하였으며, 반응경로와 TS의 구조 그리고 활성화 에너지를 구하였다. 또한 본 기계학습 알고리즘을 바닥상태에서 일어나는 반응이 아닌, 들뜬 상태와 전자 구조가 변하는 화학반응, avoid crossing, conical intersection과 같은 Non-adiabatic frame에서 일어나는 현상에 적용 가능성을 논하고자 한다.
