In Video streaming environment, we must consider terminal and network characteristics, such as display resolution, frame rate, computational resource, network bandwidth, etc. The JVT (Joint Video Team) by ISO/IEC MPEG and ITU-TVCEG is currently standardizing Scalable Video Coding (SVC). This can represent video bitstreams in different sealable layers for flexible adaptation to terminal and network characteristics. This characteristic is very useful in video streaming applications. One fully scalable video can be extracted with specific target spatial resolution, temporal frame rate and quality level to match the requirements of terminals and networks. Besides, the extraction process is fast and consumes little computational resource, so it is possible to extract the partial video bitstream online to accommodate with changing network conditions etc. With all the advantages of SVC, we design and implement a network-adaptive SVC streaming system with an SVC extractor and a streamer to extract appropriate amounts of bitstreams to meet the required target bitrates and spatial resolutions. The proposed SVC extraction is designed to allow for flexible switching from layer to layer in SVC bitstreams online to cope with the change in network bandwidth. The extraction is made in every GOP unit. We present the implementation of our SVC streaming system with experimental results.

Recently, with the growing of social network sites, people's choice is also getting more and more. So the notion of loyalty has become an important construct within the Social Network framework because of member is easy switching on the social networking sites. Despite the increasing importance of social network sites loyalty question, there's very little research in this area. In electronic commerce, the website loyalty development process is based on both website satisfaction and website trust toward the net-enabled business. But how to target the members with high or low loyalty in the social network sites is still a question. In this paper we propose one improved RFM model to evaluate the member loyalty to find the potential members for improving the service quality of the social network site. In addition, an empirical case study is performed to demonstrate how this procedure works. Moreover, further applications of this research are provided for improved social network sites experiences and how to use the model to practice.

MSC는 ITU에 의해 표준화된, 병행 시스템의 명세를 기술하기 위한 그래픽 형태와 텍스트 형태를 제공하는 언어로서 실시간 시스템 특히 통신 교환 시스템의 특성을 기술하기 위해 자주 사용된다. 통신 시스템이 제대로 동작함을 보이기 위해서는 정형적인 방법을 사용하여 시스템 행위를 검증할 필요가 있다. 통신 소프트웨어를 검증하는 방법 중 하나의 방법으로 유한 상태를 기반으로 하는 방법이 있다. 유한 상태를 기반으로 하는 방법에서는 먼저 시스템 명세에 해당하는 전체 상태 전이 그래프를 생성한 후 이를 바탕으로 model-checking 등의 방법을 사용하여 시스템의 특성을 검증한다. 본 논문에서는 MSC로 기술된 통신 소프트웨어 명세로부터 전체 상태 전이 그래프를 생성하는 방법에 초점을 맞추었다. 시스템 명세에 해당하는 상태 전이 그래프를 생성하기 위해 보다 직관적으로 MSC의 의미론을 표현할 수 있고, 또한 쉽게 전체 상태 전이 그래프를 생성할 수 있는 행위 종속 그래프를 제안하였다. MSC 명세는 일단 행위 종속 그래프로 변환이 되고 이 행위 종속 그래프를 이용하여 전체 상태 전이 그래프가 생성된다.Abstract Message Sequence Chart (MSC) standardized by International Telecommunication Union is a graphical and textual language for describing the specification of concurrent systems. It is frequently used both formally and informally for specifying the behavior of real-time systems, in particular telecommunication switching systems. To ensure that a communication system operates properly, the verification process showing the correctness of system's behavior formally is necessary. One of the verification methods is a finite-state method. In the finite-state method, the global state transition graph (GSTG) is constructed and then safety and liveness properties of systems are verified through a well-known method such as model checking. In this paper, we forcus on the construction of GSTG from the specifications of telecommunication software written in MSC. We suggest Action Dependency Graph (ADG) which can present the semantics of MSC intuitively and also provide a GSTG construction method from ADG. MSC specifications are translated to ADGs and, in turns, the GSTGs are constructed by using these ADGs.

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a technology that attracts attention as a next-generation digital circuit design technology, and several digital circuits have been proposed in the QCA environment. Content-addressable memory (CAM) is a storage device that conducts a search based on information stored therein and provides fast speed in a special process such as network switching. Existing CAM cell circuits proposed in the QCA environment have a disadvantage in that a required area and energy dissipation are large. The CAM cell is composed of a memory unit that stores information and a match unit that determines whether or not the search is successful, and this study proposes an improved QCA CAM cell by designing the memory unit in a multi-layer structure. The proposed circuit uses simulation to verify the operation and compares and analyzes with the existing circuit.

A smart phone and the number of wireless terminals are mobile-to the nature of the AP mobility are many call transfer between wireless terminals and AP (Access Point). Each wireless terminal that is the call processing process for each is relatively large to cause the wireless traffic, and a factor that inhibits the efficient use of the radio band on the AP. In this paper, we use the power intensity threshold and threshold timer of the AP received by the mobile station to reduce the amount of switching traffic between the AP's cause and traffic generation factors between the wireless device and the AP that can effectively utilize the radio traffic from the AP the measures proposed. The proposed method and the conventional method is improved by simulation to handle the amount of radio traffic from the AP it was confirmed that it is possible to effectively utilize the whole of the radio band.

In this paper, a switch sizing method is proposed in order to prevent the cross-regulation in the TM type SIDO DC-DC buck converter. In TM type SIDO DC-DC buck converter, a DCM operation is required. In the DCM operation, the inductor peak current is larger than that in the CCM. Because of the larger inductor peak current and the added switch resistance, the voltage drop is increased, resulting in possible cross-regulation. To solve this problem, the switch resistance must be considered in sizing the switch. To simplify the calculation of the resistance, the inductor current was replaced by the average load current. Using the proposed method, TM type SIDO DC-DC buck converter for camera module was designed to provide two independent supply voltage(2.8 V and 1.8 V). The designed circuit was fabricated in a standard $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process. At a switching frequency of 1 MHz and a load current of 200 mA, a power effciency of 80.7% was achieved.

The accuracy of MR sensor-based electronic compass is influenced by the temperature drift and DC offset of the MR sensor and the OP-amp, the magnetic distortion of nearby magnetic materials, and the compass tilt We design the 3-axis MR sensor and accelerometers-based electronic compass which is compensated by the set/reset pulse switching method on the temperature drift and DC offset, by the execution of hard-iron calibration routine on the magnetic distortion, and by the execution of the Euler rotational equation on the compass tilt. We qualitatively analyze the measured azimuth error on the execution of sensitivity calibration routine which is the normalization process on the different sensitivity of each MR sensor and the different gain of each op-amps. This compensation and analytic result make us design the one degree accuracy electronic compass.

This paper presents a fully-integrated buck converter equipped with packaging inductors. These inductors include parasitic inductances of the bonding wires and lead frames in the package. They have significantly better Q factors than the best on-chip inductors implemented on silicon. This paper also proposes a low-swing gate driver for efficient regulation of high-frequency switching converters. The low-swing driver uses the voltage drop of a diode-connect transistor. The proposed converter is designed and fabricated using a $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The fully-integrated buck converter achieves 68.7% and 86.6% efficiency for 3.3 V/2.0 V and 2.8 V/2.3 V conversions, respectively.

PCB design technology for high-speed transmission line has been developed continuously. Adapting to the high capacity of the communication system, switch fabric interface used for backplane is being standardized to accommodate more than 10Gbps serial interface. In this paper, various computer simulations are performed to compare the performance of each transmission line per length according to PCB material, and also to analyze the effect from via stub length and crosstalk, for the purpose of applying 11.5Gbps serial interface as a switch fabric interface in tera-bit switching system. As a result of the simulation, important design issues, such as PCB material of each board supporting 8dB improvement in transmission loss using low loss PCB, maximum available stub length on transmission line via, whether or not to apply the backdrill process to the via, and the clearance of the differential pair between transmission lines, are determined. The most efficient system architecture which could be applied 11.5Gbps serial interface in all switch fabric interfaces is defined from the simulation results.
