This paper proposes a new power flow method for distribution system analysis by modifying the conventional back/forward sweep method using symmetrical components. Since the proposed method backward and forward sweeps with the variables expressed by symmetrical components, this method reduces computation time for matrix calculations; therefore, it is able to reduce the computational burden for real-time distribution network analysis. The proposed method was also developed to effectively analyze the unbalanced distribution system installing AVR(Auto Voltage Regulator), shunt capacitors. The proposed algorithm was compared with the conventional Back/forward Sweep method by applying both methods to three phase unbalanced distribution system of IEEE 123-bus model, and the test results showed that the proposed method would outperformed the conventional method in real-time distribution system analysis.

As the network technologies advance, the control systems progress from a centralized architecture to a distributed one. However, these control systems were designed mostly based on the general-purpose operating systems(OS) and have many problems for assurance of a real-time property required for plant processing fields. Therefore, the control systems far a plant process upon real-time OS hare been increased gradually. In this paper, the real-time OS emphasizes on the realization of real-time processing capability, reliability of real-time response, and multi-processing functionality which are prerequisites for a distributed control system. And on the basis of this OS, the number of executable loop and logic, the functions of main plant processing, was analyzed and its validity was also evaluated. The system in this paper was designed not to effect on processing data while online, and the time spent on switching was measured.

Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is a communication pathway between devices (computers) and human brain. It treats brain signals in real-time basis and discriminates some information of what human brain is doing. In this work, we develop a EEG BCI system using a feature extraction such as common spatial pattern (CSP) and a classifier using Fisher linear discriminant analysis (FLDA). Two-class EEG motor imagery movement datasets with both cued and uncued are tested to verify its feasibility.

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), transmitted exclusively by the whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) in a circulative manner is one of the most important virus in tomato. Since the first report of TYLCV incidence in Korea in 2008, the virus has rapidly spread nationwide. TYLCV currently causes serious economic losses in tomato production in Korea. Early detection of TYLCV is one of the most important methods to allow rouging of infected tomato plants to minimize the spread of TYLCV disease. We have developed an ultra-rapid and sensitive real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using a new designed real-time PCR system, GenSpectorTM TMC-1000 that is a small and portable real-time PCR machine requiring only a $5{\mu}l$ reaction volume on microchips. The new system provides ultra-high speed reaction (30 cycles in less than 15 minutes) and melting curve analysis for amplified TYLCV products. These results suggest that the short reaction time and ultra sensitivity of the GenSpector$^{TM}$-based real-time PCR technique is suitable for monitoring epidemics and pre-pandemic TYLCV disease. This is the first report for plant virus detection using an ultra-rapid real-time PCR system.

ATIS(Advanced Traveler Information System) is the system to offer a real-time traffic information or traffic situation for the benefit of the client. One of traffic information collection methods for ATIS research is the method of image analysis. The method is divided into two : one is the method to set two loop detectors at the area and the other is the method detecting the vehicle through an image analysis. In this paper, we propose a real-time traffic information collection system to mix two methods. The system installs multiple virtual detection lines and traces the location of the vehicle. Use of multiple virtual detection lines supplements the defect of the method of loop detectors. And we drew a representative pixels in the detecting area and used it for image analysis. This is to solve the problem of time delay which increases as the image size increases. We gathered traffic images and experimented using the system and got 92.32% of detection accuracy.

In this study, a numerical analysis was performed as part of an international joint research project to reproduce a real cable tray fire that occurred in the heater bay area of the turbine building of a nuclear power plant. A sensitivity analysis was performed on various input parameters to derive results consistent with the sprinkler activation time obtained from the fire event analysis. For all sensitive parameters, the normalized sprinkler activation time correlated well with the power function of the normalized sprinkler height. A correlation equation was developed to identify the sprinkler activation time at any location when determining the slope or fire growth rate under the conditions assuming a linear or t-squared heat release rate (HRR) time curve. Various cable fire growth assumptions were used to determine which assumption was better to provide the prediction coincident with the information given from the fire event analysis in terms of the sprinkler activation time and total energy generated from cables damaged by fire. In the comprehensive analysis of all the sensitive parameters, the standard deviation of the input parameters increased as the sprinkler height decreased. Within the range of the sensitivity parameter values given in this study, when considering all sprinkler heights, the standard deviation of the cable model change was the largest and that of the overhang position change was the smallest.

This paper proposes a real-time application of rationalized Haar transform which is based on the local rationalized Haar transform, local operational matrix and local delay operational matrix. This approach let a general sampling time be used by introducing a scaling factor. In the existing method of orthogonal functions, a major disadvantage is that process signals need to be recorded prior to obtaining their expansions. This paper proposes a novel method of rationalized Haar transform to overcome this shortcoming. And the proposed method is suitable for the analysis of linear systems. The proposed method is expected to the applicable to the adaptive control which demanded to the real-time applications.

The object of the thermal error compensation system in machine tools is improving the accuracy of a machine tool through real time error compensation. The accuracy of the machine tool totally depends on the accuracy of thermal error model. A thermal error model can be obtained by appropriate combination of temperature variables. The proposed method for optimal variable selection in the thermal error model is based on correlation grouping and successive regression analysis. Collinearity matter is improved with the correlation grouping and the judgment function which minimizes residual mean square is used. The linear model is more robust against measurement noises than an engineering judgement model that includes the higher order terms of variables. The proposed method is more effective for the applications in real time error compensation because of the reduction in computational time, sufficient model accuracy, and the robustness.

In this paper, we propose a system to detect various damage automatically inflicted on road pavement by collecting and analyzing data from acceleration and camera sensors in real time. The proposed system sends the collected images, acceleration signals, and GPS coordinates to the road manager and the database in the remote server, shortly after detecting the damage to the road pavement. Our study makes three key contributions. The proposed system 1) enables road managers to maintain road conditions quickly, accurately, and conveniently; 2) allows road mangers to take care of various kinds of damage to the road pavement at the initial stage; and finally 3) even makes it possible to track the damage, which suggests that the integration of a high-level decision support function becomes affordable. We tested the sensitivity and precision of the proposed system against real-time data obtained from the vehicles driving on the highway at an average speed of 100 km/h. With ten iterations, the proposed system achieved an average sensitivity of 74% and an average precision of 84% in road pavement damage detection, which is comparable with the best competing schemes.
