Cutback control in a grid code is one of the functions of a wind power plant (WPP) that is required to support the system protection and frequency stability. When a cutback control command signal is delivered to the WPP from the system operator, the output of a WPP should be decreased to 20% of the rated power within 5 s. In this paper, we propose a dedicated cutback control algorithm of a WPP based on the ratio of the command power to the available power. If a cutback control signal is delivered, the algorithm determines the pitch angle for the cutback control and starts the pitch angle control. The proposed algorithm keeps the rotor speed at the speed before the start of the cutback control to quickly recover the previous output prior to the cutback control. The performance of the algorithm was validated for a 100 MW aggregated WPP based on a permanent magnet synchronous generator under various wind conditions using an EMTP-RV simulator. The results clearly shows that the proposed algorithm not only successfully reduces the output to the command power within 5 s by minimizing the fluctuation of the pitch angle, but also rapidly recovers to the output level before the cutback control.

SSD는 이미 할당된 페이지에 대한 제자리 덮어쓰기가 불가능하므로 쓰기 연산이 있을 때마다 새로운 클린 페이지로의 대체가 필요하다. 이 문제를 지원하기 위해 SSD는 운영체제의 파일시스템에서 관리하는 논리 페이지를 현재 할당된 물리 페이지로 매핑하는 플래시 변환 계층인 FTL을 내부에 둔다. 쓰기 연산으로 버려진 SSD 페이지는 초기화 작업을 거쳐 재활용되어야 하는데, 그 횟수에 제한이 있기 때문에 FTL은 기본인 페이지 매핑 기능 외에 쓰기 횟수를 줄일 수 있는 캐시 기능을 제공한다. 이 연구에서는 쓰기 횟수를 줄이기 위한 FTL의 캐시 방법론에 집중하여 관련된 알고리즘들을 분석하고, 쓰기 전용 캐시 전략을 제안한다. 시뮬레이터를 사용하여 쓰기 전용 캐시를 실험한 결과 최대 29%의 개선 효과를 보였다.

This study developed a comprehensive and easily applicable nuclear reactor control system evaluation method using reactor operators behavioral and mental workload database. A proposed control panel design cycle consists of the 5 steps: (1) finding out inconvenient, erroneous, and mentally stressful factors for the proposed design through evaluative experiments, (2) drafting improved design alternatives considering detective factors found out in the step (1), (3) comparative experiements for the design alternatives, (4) selecting a best design alternative, (5) returning to the step (1) and repeating the design cycle. Reactor operators behavioral and mental workload database collected from evaluative experiments in the step (1) and comparative experiments in the step (3) of the design cycle have a key roll in finding out defective factors and yielding the criteria for selection of the proposed reactor control systems. The behavioral database was designed to include the major informations about reactor operators' control behaviors: beginning time of operations, involved displays, classification of observational behaviors, dehaviors, decisions, involved control devices, classification of control behaviors, communications, emotional status, opinions for man-machine interface, and system event log. The database for mental workload scored from various physiological variables-EEG, EOG, ECG, and respir- ation pattern-was developed to indicate the most stressful situation during reactor control operations and to give hints for defective design factors. An experimental test for the evaluation method applied to the Compact Nuclear Simulator (CNS) installed in Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) suggested that some defective design factors of analog indicators should be improved and that automatization of power control to a target level would give relaxation to the subject operators in stressful situation.

최근 국방 소프트웨어 산업은 다양한 무기체계 사업을 통해 모델링 및 시뮬레이션 기술을 적용한 시뮬레이션 시스템 개발을 늘리고 있으며, 특히 이기종 시뮬레이터 간 이식성 및 상호 연동성 확보를 위해서 분산 시뮬레이션 표준 프레임워크인 HLA(High Level Architecture)의 적용을 규정하고 있다. HLA는 분산 환경에서 시뮬레이터간 데이터 교환 및 순서화를 제공하기 위한 서비스를 정의하며, HLA 규칙, Federate 인터페이스 표준 그리고 객체 모델 템플릿의 주요 컴포넌트로 구성된다. RTI(Run-Time Infrastructure)는 Federate 인터페이스 표준을 구현한 소프트웨어로써 Federation 환경에 참여 중인 Federate들이 정보를 교환할 수 있도록 기능을 제공한다. RTI 기술은 워 게임, 가상 시뮬레이션, 훈련 및 무기체계 소프트웨어 연동과 같은 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 하지만 국내에서 개발된 사례가 없어 모두 외산 제품에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문은 국내에서 개발된 IEEE1516.1-2000 표준의 RTI 구현을 소개한다. 특히, Federate 간 데이터 교환 성능을 높이기 위해서 서버-클라이언트 방식과 단대단 방식을 혼합한 하이브리드 데이터 통신 방식의 적용 방법을 기술하고, 상용 RTI와 데이터 처리율 및 네트워크 지연 시간의 비교를 통해 성능이 개선되었음을 보인다.

Emergencies and disasters can happen any time without any warning, and things can change and escalate very quickly, and often it is swift and decisive actions that make all the difference. It is a responsibility of the building facility management to ensure that a proven evacuation plan in place to cover various worst scenario to handled automatically inside the facility. To mapping out optimal safe escape routes is a straightforward undertaking, but does not necessarily guarantee residents the highest level of protection. The emergency evacuation navigation approach is a state-of-the-art that designed to evacuate human livings during an emergencies based on real-time decisions using live sensory data with pre-defined optimum path finding algorithm. The poor decision on causalities and guidance may apparently end the evacuation process and cannot then be remedied. This paper propose a cloud connected emergency evacuation system model to react dynamically to changes in the environment in emergency for safest emergency evacuation using IoT based emergency exit sign system. In the previous researches shows that the performance of optimal routing algorithms for evacuation purposes are more sensitive to the initial distribution of evacuees, the occupancy levels, and the type and level of emergency situations. The heuristic-based evacuees routing algorithms have a problem with the choice of certain parameters which causes evacuation process in real-time. Therefore, this paper proposes an evacuee routing algorithm that optimizes evacuation by making using high computational power of cloud servers. The proposed algorithm is evaluated via a cloud-based simulator with different "simulated casualties" are then re-routed using a Dijkstra's algorithm to obtain new safe emergency evacuation paths against guiding evacuees with a predetermined routing algorithm for them to emergency exits. The performance of proposed approach can be iterated as long as corrective action is still possible and give safe evacuation paths and dynamically configure the emergency exit signs to react for real-time instantaneous safe evacuation guidance.

가상현실 치매체험 프로그램(EDuVR, Empathy for Dementia using Virtual Reality)은 환자가족, 조호자, 일반인들에게 치매환자에 대한 이해와 공감을 유도하기 위해 제주특별자치도 광역치매센터에서 개발한 360도 가상현실 콘텐츠이다. 치매에 대한 인식개선도구 개발의 필요성에 따라, 치매환자가 겪는 기억력, 지남력, 언어능력, 판단력과 같은 인지기능 저하와 이로 인한 일상생활의 어려움을 환자 일인칭 시점으로 체험하도록 하였다. 본 보고의 전반부에서는 EDuVR에 대하여 소개하였고 후반부에서는 EDuVR 체험이 인식개선에 미치는 효과를 기술하였다. 총 66명의 피험자를 EDuVR 집단(34명)과 교육집단(32명)에 할당한 후, 치매태도검사, 치매인식검사를 사전과 사후에 각각 측정하였다. EDuVR 집단은 추가적으로 VR 경험에 따른 멀미감과 현실감 수준을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 치매환자에 대한 태도 및 인식은 EDuVR의 체험에 따라 긍정적으로 변화하였으며, 이러한 변화는 치매교육의 효과와 다르지 않았다. EDuVR의 체험 후 유의한 수준으로 멀미를 느낀 사람은 1명에 불과하였다. 본 결과는 EDuVR은 짧은 체험시간만으로도 교육과 유사한 수준의 인식개선 및 태도변화를 일으키며, 멀미감이 크게 유발되지 않아 일반대중이 체험하기에 용이한 콘텐츠임을 시사한다. 즉, EDuVR은 치매에 대한 이해와 공감수준을 높이는 유용한 인식개선 도구이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the secondary tasks such as sending text message (STM) and searching navigation (SN) on skin conductance level (SCL) and driving performance of relatively aged and high-experienced drivers. The subjects included 26 taxi drivers; 12 males aged $56.3{\pm}4.4$ with $28.4{\pm}6.4$ years of driving experiences and 14 females aged $55.5{\pm}3.5$ with $19.4{\pm}5.0$ years of driving experiences. All subjects were instructed to keep a constant following distance (30m) from the car ahead and a given vehicle speed (80km/h or 100km/h) in a driving simulator. The relative change of SCL, vehicle velocity deviations, and average following distances were measured during driving only and driving with secondary tasks. The relative change of SCL, average following distance, and vehicle velocity deviation were more increased during the driving with secondary tasks than driving only. The relative change of SCL, vehicle velocity deviation, and average following distance were more affected by driving with 100km/hr than 80km/hr of a given vehicle speed. Secondary tasks increased a work load of drivers in term of SCL change, and decreased driving performance in terms of the vehicle velocity deviation and average following distance.

The network capability to accomplish its functions in a timely fashion under failures and attacks is known as survivability. Ad hoc routing protocols have been studied and extended to various domains, such as Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs), Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), underwater acoustic networks, and Internet of Things (IoT) focusing on different aspects, such as security, QoS, energy. The existing solutions proposed in this domain incur substantial overhead and eventually become burden on the network, especially when there are fewer attacks or no attack at all. There is a need that the effectiveness of these routing protocols be analyzed in the presence of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks without any intrusion detection or prevention system. This will enable us to establish and identify the inherently stable routing protocols that are capable to survive longer in the presence of these attacks. This work presents a DoS attack case study to perform theoretical analysis of survivability on node and network level in the presence of DoS attacks. We evaluate the performance of reactive and proactive routing protocols and analyse their survivability. For experimentation, we use NS-2 simulator without detection or prevention capabilities. Results show that proactive protocols perform better in terms of throughput, overhead and packet drop.

PURPOSE. This study was conducted to evaluate clinical validity of a zirconia full-coverage crown by comparing zirconia's wear capacity over antagonistic teeth with that of feldspathic dental porcelain. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The subject groups were divided into three groups: the polished feldspathic dental porcelain group (Group 1), the polished zirconia group (Group 2), and the polished zirconia with glazing group (Group 3). Twenty specimens were prepared from each group. Each procedure such as plasticity, condensation, and glazing was conducted according to the manufacturer's manual. A wear test was conducted with 240,000 chewing cycles using a dual-axis chewing simulator. The degree of wear of the antagonistic teeth was calculated by measuring the volume loss using a three-dimensional profiling system and ANSUR 3D software. The statistical significance of the measured degree of wear was tested with a significant level of 5% using one-way ANOVA and the Tukey test. RESULTS. The degrees of wear of the antagonistic teeth were $0.119{\pm}0.059\;mm^3$ in Group 1, $0.078{\pm}0.063\;mm^3$ in Group 3, and $0.031{\pm}0.033\;mm^3$ in Group 2. Statistical significance was found between Group 1 and Groups 2 and between Group 2 and 3, whereas no statistical significance was found between Group 1 and Group 3. CONCLUSION. Despite the limitations of this study on the evaluation of antagonistic teeth wear, the degree of antagonistic tooth wear was less in zirconia than feldspathic dental porcelain, representing that the zirconia may be more beneficial in terms of antagonistic tooth wear.
