The earthquake resistant design concept allows the nonlinear behavior of structures under the design earthquake. Therefore the response spectrum method provided in most codes introduces the response modification factors to consider the nonlinear behavior in the design process. For bridges, the response modification factors are given according to the ductility as well as the redundancy of piers. In this study, among influence factors on the nonlinear seismic behavior, the randomness of artificial accelerograms simulated with different durations, the pier ductility represented by the inelastic behavior characteristic curve and the regularity represented by pier heights are selected. The influence of such factor on the seismic behavior is investigated by comparing response modification factors calculated with the nonlinear time step analysis.

본 논문에서는 DC 억압능력이 없거나 부족한 코드에 만족할 만한 DC 억압능력을 갖도록 하기 위한 멀티모드코드 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 멀티모드코드는 데이터열의 다중화를 위해 Pseudo Scrambling Technique를 사용하며, 다중화 된 데이터열의 변조를 위해 DC-free RLL(d, k) Code를 사용하는 특징을 가진다. 제안한 방법에서는 Sync 코드워드의 패리티를 다중화 정보로 사용하여 입력데이터를 2개의 데이터 열로 다중화하고, 2개로 다중화 된 데이터 열에 대해 DC-free RLL(d, k) Code를 사용하여 코드워드로 변환하며, 코드워드로 변환된 2 개의 코드워드 열에 대해 DC 성분이 적은 코드워드 열 하나를 선택하여 변조 스트림으로 출력한다. 본 논문에서는 Sync 코드워드의 패리티를 다중화 정보로 사용하여 별도의 Redundancy를 부가하지 않고 DC 억압성능을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

In speech communication systems where two different speech codecs are interoperated, transcoding algorithm is a good approach because of its low complexity and improved synthesized speech quality. This paper proposes an efficient method to further improve the performance of transcoding algorithms as well as to reduce the complexity. In the conventional transcoding algorithms. a post-filter and a perceptual weighting filter should be operated sequentially because both decoding and encoding processes are needed. This results in the redundancy of the processing in terms of complexity and perceptual quality. Using the fact that their filter structures are similar, we replaced the two filters with one. The proposed algorithm requires 72.8% lower complexity than the conventional transcoding algorithm when we compare only the complexity of the filtering processes. The results of both objective and subjective tests verify that the proposed algorithm has slightly better quality than the conventional one.

현재 HEVC의 AMVP(Adaptive Motion Vector Prediction) 모드에서는 공간적, 시간적 후보를 고려하여 최종 후보 2개를 결정 한 후 어떤 후보를 사용하였는지 MVP flag를 이용하여 디코더로 알려준다. 이때, 최종 2개의 후보가 동일하다면 AMVP의 성능이 저하 될 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 그러한 경우를 고려하여 개선된 알고리즘을 제안한다. 실험결과는 휘도 기준 최대 -0.5%의 성능이 나오며 제안된 알고리즘이 효율적임을 보여준다.

This paper proposes an efficient motion compensation algorithm for video sequences with brightness variations. In the proposed algorithm, the brightness variation parameters are estimated and local motions are compensated. To detect the frame with large brightness variations. we employ the frame classification based on the cross entropy between histograms of two successive frames, which can reduce the computational redundancy. Simulation results show that the proposed method yields a higher peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) than the conventional methods, with a low computational load, when the video scene contains large brightness changes.

As more and more critical commercial applications move on the Internet, providing highly available servers becomes increasingly important. One of the advantages of a clustered system is that it has hardware and software redundancy. High availability can be provided by detecting node or daemon failure and reconfiguring the system appropriately so that the workload can be taken over bi the remaining nodes in the cluster. This paper presents how to provide the guaranteeing high availability of clustering web server. The load balancer becomes a single failure point of the whole system. In order to prevent the failure of the load balancer, we setup a backup server using heartbeat, fake, mon, and checkpointing fault-tolerance method. For high availability of file servers in the cluster, we setup coda file system. Coda is a advanced network fault-tolerance distributed file system.

The communicative behaviors in Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs) can be characterized by two different types: routing and broadcasting. The broadcasting is used for effective route discoveries and packet delivery. However, broadcasting shorten the network lifetime due to the energy overconsumption by redundant transmissions. In this paper, we proposed a algorithm that remove redundant forward nodes based on Dominant Pruning method using 2-hop neighbors knowledge. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm appears superior performance in respect of the number of forward nodes and the network lifetime.

This paper introduces a mixture of background subtraction technique and K-Means clustering algorithm for removing shadows from video sequences. Lighting conditions cause an issue with segmentation. The proposed method can successfully eradicate artifacts associated with lighting changes such as highlight and reflection, and cast shadows of moving object from segmentation. In this paper, K-Means clustering algorithm is applied to the foreground, which is initially fragmented by background subtraction technique. The estimated shadow region is then superimposed on the background to eliminate the effects that cause redundancy in object detection. Simulation results depict that the proposed approach is capable of removing shadows and reflections from moving objects with an accuracy of more than 95% in every cases considered.

This paper describes an effective knowledge acquisition method in the fault diagnosis expert system for the electronic switching system TDX-1A. The knowledge acquisition procedure consists of the knowledge collection, the fault diagnosis modeling and the knowledge representation. Furthermore, to improve the performance of the knowledge bases with rule and frame representation, we showed the knowledge base checking methodlogy by using redundancy and inconsistency check algorithm.

In order to use mBIZ code as the practical transmission code, the information block length have to be determined. If the information block length is short, timing information disapperance is reduced, but transmission speed is increased as the result of inserted redundancy bit. While, if the information block length is long, timing information disapperance and jitter are caused. So it is very important to determine the optimal timing information block length. Therefore, in this paper, we determined the optimal information block length using S/X endurance method.
