Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) is the core technology of communication, navigation and surveillance/air traffic management (CNS/ATM), automatically broadcasts its own position information using GNSS and has an advantage of lower geological constraints and faster update speed compared with legacy radar systems. EUROCONTROL defined all purpose structured eurocontrol surveillance information exchange (ASTERIX) CAT.021. ASTERIX CAT.021 is modified several times, but it has compatibility issues with previous version of it. In this paper, we have designed an efficient message processing module regardless of the version of ASTERIX CAT.021. This implemented module generates patterns to collect messages received from the network, after that, received messages are processed in the routine that is defined in accordance with the patterns.

International Maritime Organization (IMO) recommends the installation of an Automatic Identification System (AIS) according to requirements by SOLAS to avoid maritime collision. AIS provides traffic information of other ships that may be used for maritime traffic control, SAR (Search and Rescue) and collision avoidance to apply safety management. In this paper, preliminary results to implement an aeronautical surveillance transceiver using AIS transceiver based on ADS-B concepts are described. Although altitude information is not required for AIS since the AIS is operated at MSL (Mean Sea Level), altitude information can be extracted by a GPS (Global Positioning System) chip-set in the AIS transceiver. ADS-B transceiver is implemented by defining a surveillance message format including the altitude information and modifying SOTDMA (Self-Organizing Time Division Multiple Access) protocol. Ground tests and flight tests are performed to validate the implementation results.

As most of small fishing boats made of FRP have been constructed by experience in Korea, some structural safety problems have been occurred occasionally. To improve the structural strength and reduce the costs for construction and operation, optimum design for small fishing boat was carried out in this study. The weight of fishing boat and the main dimensions of structural members are chosen as objective function and design variables, respectively. By the combination of global and local search methods, a hybrid optimization algorithm was developed to escape the local minima and reduce CPU time in analysis procedure, and finite element analysis was performed to determine the constraint parameters at each iteration step in optimization loop. Optimization results were compared with the real existing fishing boat, and the effects of optimum design were examined from points of view; structural strength, material cost, etc.

XML is the most popular platform-independent data expression which is used to communicate between loosely coupled heterogeneous systems such as B2B Applications or Workflow systems. The powerful query language XQuery has been developed to support diverse needs for querying XML documents. XQuery is designed to configure results from diverse data sources into a uniquely structured query result. Therefore, it became the standard for the XML query language. Although the latest XQuery supports heavy search functions including iterations, the grouping mechanism for data is too primitive and makes the query expression difficult and complex. Therefore, this work is focused on supporting the groupby clause in the query expression to process XQuery grouping. We suggest it to be a more efficient way to process grouping for restructuring and aggregation functions on XML data. We propose an XQuery EBNF that includes the groupby clause and implemented an XQuery processing system with grouping functions based on the eXist Native XML Database.

In this paper, we design and implement an efficient bulk-loading algorithm for CIR-Tree. Bulk-loading techniques increase node utilization, improve query performance and reduce index construction time. The CIR-tree has variable size of internal node entries since it only maintains minimal dimensions to decriminate child nodes. This property increases fan-out of internal nodes and improves search performance. Even though several bulk-loading algorithms for multi/high-dimensional index structures have been proposed, we cannot apple them to CIR-tree because of the variable size of internal node entries. In this paper, we propose an efficient bulk- loading algorithm for CIR-tree that improves the existing bulk-loading algorithm and accomodates the property of CIR-tree. We also implement it on a storage system MiDAS-III and show superiority of our algorithm through various experiments.

For browsing, searching, and manipulating video documents, an indexing technique to describe video contents is required. Until now, the indexing process is mostly carried out by specialists who manually assign a few keywords to the video contents and thereby this work becomes an expensive and time consuming task. Therefore, automatic classification of video content is necessary. We propose a fully automatic and computationally efficient method for analysis and summarization of spots news video for 5 spots news video such as soccer, golf, baseball, basketball and volleyball. First of all, spots news videos are classified as anchor-person Shots, and the other shots are classified as news reports shots. Shot classification is based on image preprocessing and color features of the anchor-person shots. We then use the dominant color of the field and motion features for analysis of sports shots, Finally, sports shots are classified into five genre type. We achieved an overall average classification accuracy of 75% on sports news videos with 241 scenes. Therefore, the proposed method can be further used to search news video for individual sports news and sports highlights.

In IEEE 802.11b wireless network, stations synchronize themselves to the beacons periodically sent by the access point(AP) when they are running in low power mode. In case of missing beacon due to noise or traffic from neighboring wireless network stations must be awake until they get the next beacon, which causes energy consumption in stations. In this paper, we propose a scheme searching next beacon consuming little energy. The problems of missing beacon in low power mode of IEEE 802.11b wireless interface are described and a new method to reduce energy consumption is proposed. The proposed method is simulated with the network simulator, ns2, and compared with the low power mode of the IEEE 802.11b. The result measured in terms of station's wakeup time shows some enhancement in energy consumption when some errors occur in receiving frames.

The drone market in Korea is growing with a focus on the use of prevention, defense, exploration and surveying, search and rescue, video shooting, and facility management. However, the foreign dependence on drone's core technologies and components is high. Drone-powered countries such as the US and China are expanding the weaponization of drones, which can intensify trade wars between countries, such as strengthening import and export regulations and monopoly. Therefore, Korea should put R & D and localization of core technology, parts, and accessories of next generation drone first. For this, policy research and investment in infrastructure, equipment, and research personnel should be preceded. This study studied the evaluation of investment priorities by infrastructure sector (facility equipment, utilization field, and demand manpower) to foster small drone companies through literature studies. To this end, we expanded and reclassified e isting research, developed investment prioritization indicators through expert group interviews and reviews, derived future uncertainties, and selected investment priorities by infrastructure sector using AHP techniques. Finally, it proposed an infrastructure construction strategy to foster small drone companies in terms of drone development support, utilization support.

Question answering system (QA system) is a system that finds an actual answer to the question posed by a user, whereas a typical search engine would only find the links to the relevant documents. Recent works related to the open domain QA systems are receiving much attention in the fields of natural language processing, artificial intelligence, and data mining. However, the prior works on QA systems simply replace all words that are not in the training data with a single token, even though such unseen words are likely to play crucial roles in differentiating the candidate answers from the actual answers. In this paper, we propose a method to compute vectors of such unseen words by taking into account the context in which the words have occurred. Next, we also propose a model which utilizes inverse document frequencies (IDF) to efficiently process unseen words by expanding the system's vocabulary. Finally, we validate that the proposed method and model improve the performance of a QA system through experiments.
