This paper proposes an algorithm to improve the compression performance of the adaptive multi-rate (AMR) speech coding using the context tree weighting (CTW) method. AMR is the voice encoding standard adopted by IMT-2000, and supports 8 transmission rates from 4.75 kbit/s to 12.2 kbit/s to cope with changes in the channel condition. CTW as a kind of the arithmetic coding, uses a variable-order Markov model. Considering that CTW operates bit by bit, we propose an algorithm that re-orders AMR data and compresses them with CTW. To verify the validity of the proposed algorithm, an experiment is conducted to compare the proposed algorithm with existing compression methods including ZIP in terms of compression ratio. Experimental results indicate that the average additional compression rate in AMR data is about 3.21% with ZIP and about 9.10% with the proposed algorithm. Thus our algorithm improves the compression performance of AMR data by about 5.89%.

6LoWPAN (IPv6 over Low Power Wireless Sensor Network) standardized by IETF does not support the mobility of wireless sensor nodes. Since the wireless sensor node, subject to a lot of constraints in the CPU, memory, a battery is not easy to apply to existing protocols such as Mobile IPv6. In this paper, we propose a novel mobility management architecture and methods to work with 6LoWPAN based on the analysis on FPMIPv6 (Fast PMIPv6) the host is not a handover procedure performed in order to support the mobility of such sensor nodes. It was suggested the use of a dispatch code pattern that is not currently used in 6LoWPAN for inter-working, MAG and MAC, MAC in order to reduce packet loss caused as the authentication delay in the handover process to minimize the power consumption of a sensor node that is caused by the re-transmission the new concept of temporary guarantee (temporary guarantee) and trust relationships (trust relationship) between AAA and introduced.

Reliability based design and assessment (RBDA) methodology is one of the newest directions of natural gas pipeline design method. Reliability targets are used to ensure that safety levels are met relevant limit states in the stage of design and maintenance. The target reliability for ultimate limit states such as large leak and rupture were developed using tolerable risk criteria for individual and societal risk. This paper shows the reliability target can be met through the implementation of periodic maintenance measures during the life cycle of the pipelines. The case study involves the calculation of the failure probability due to equipment impact, the calculation of the failure probability due to corrosion, and the estimation the re-inspection interval for domestic natural gas transmission pipelines.

In this paper, we propose a synchronous reservation protocol that is efficient for supporting variable sized messages in a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) based local network using a passive star topology. A. control channel is used to coordinate transmission on data channels. Time is slotted with fixed-sized slots. The network can accommodate a variable number of nodes, and can operate independently of the change of the number of nodes. So, any 'new' node can join the network anytime without network re-initialization. Moreover, with the protocol, we can avoid data channel and destination conflicts. We analyze the performance by using EPA method according to the variation of the end to end propagation delay with respect to one slot time, and validate the results by simulation.

It is widely accepted that the coverage with high user densities in mobile multimedia environments can only be achieved with small cell such as micro- and pico-cell. The smaller cell size causes frequent handovers between cells and a decrease in the permissible handover processing delay. This may result in the handover failure, in addition to the loss of some packets during the handover. In these cases, re-transmission is needed in order to compensate errors, which triggers a rapid degradation of throughput. In this paper, we propose a new handover scheme in the next generation mobile communication systems, in which the handover setup process is done in advance before a handover request by predicting the handover cell based on mobile terminal's current position and moving direction. Simulation is focused on the handover failure rate and packet loss rate. The simulation results show that our proposed method provides a better performance than the conventional method.

CRC features have been added to increase the reliability of the data in memory products for high-speed operation, such as DDR4. High-speed memory products in a shortage of internal timing margin increases for the CRC calculation. Because the existing CRC requires many additional circuit area and delay time. In this paper, we show that the matrix-type CRC and a new XOR/XNOR gate could be improved the circuit area and delay time. Proposed matrix-type CRC can detect all odd-bit errors and can detect even number of bit errors, except for multiples of four bits. In addition, a single error in the error correction can reduce the burden of re-transmission of data between memory products and systems due to CRC errors. In addition, the additional circuit area, compared to existing methods can be improved by 57%. The proposed XOR gate which is consists of six transistors, it can reduce the area overhead of 35% compared to the existing CRC, 50% of the gate delay can be reduced.

Microelectronic devices의 접촉저항의 향상을 위해 Metal silicides의 형성 mechanism과 전기적 특성에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 지난 수십년에 걸쳐, Ti silicide, Co silicide, Ni silicide 등에 대한 개발이 이루어져 왔으나, 계속적인 저저항 접촉 소재에 대한 요구에 의해 최근에는 Rare earth silicide에 관한 연구가 시작되고 있다. Rare-earth silicide는 저온에서 silicides를 형성하고, n-type Si과 낮은 schottky barrier contact (~0.3 eV)를 이룬다. 또한, 비교적 낮은 resistivity와 hexagonal AlB2 crystal structure에 의해 Si과 좋은 lattice match를 가져 Si wafer에서 high quality silicide thin film을 성장시킬 수 있다. Rare earth silicides 중에서 ytterbium silicide는 가장 낮은 electric work function을 갖고 있어 낮은 schottky barrier 응용에서 쓰이고 있다. 이로 인해, n-channel schottky barrier MOSFETs의 source/drain으로써 주목받고 있다. 특히 ytterbium과 molybdenum co-deposition을 하여 증착할 경우 thin film 형성에 있어 안정적인 morphology를 나타낸다. 또한, ytterbium silicide와 마찬가지로 낮은 면저항과 electric work function을 갖는다. 그러나 ytterbium silicide에 molybdenum을 화합물로써 높은 농도로 포함할 경우 높은 schottky barrier를 형성하고 epitaxial growth를 방해하여 silicide film의 quality 저하를 야기할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 ytterbium과 molybdenum의 co-deposition에 따른 silicide 형성과 전기적 특성 변화에 대한 자세한 분석을 TEM, 4-probe point 등의 다양한 분석 도구를 이용하여 진행하였다. Ytterbium과 molybdenum을 co-deposition하기 위하여 기판으로 $1{\sim}0{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$의 비저항을 갖는 low doped n-type Si (100) bulk wafer를 사용하였다. Native oxide layer를 제거하기 위해 1%의 hydrofluoric (HF) acid solution에 wafer를 세정하였다. 그리고 고진공에서 RF sputtering 법을 이용하여 Ytterbium과 molybdenum을 동시에 증착하였다. RE metal의 경우 oxygen과 높은 반응성을 가지므로 oxidation을 막기 위해 그 위에 capping layer로 100 nm 두께의 TiN을 증착하였다. 증착 후, 진공 분위기에서 rapid thermal anneal(RTA)을 이용하여 $300{\sim}700^{\circ}C$에서 각각 1분간 열처리하여 ytterbium silicides를 형성하였다. 전기적 특성 평가를 위한 sheet resistance 측정은 4-point probe를 사용하였고, Mo doped ytterbium silicide와 Si interface의 atomic scale의 미세 구조를 통한 Mo doped ytterbium silicide의 형성 mechanism 분석을 위하여 trasmission electron microscopy (JEM-2100F)를 이용하였다.
