Tungsten and tungsten heavy alloys have widespread application as radiation shielding devices and heavy duty electrical contacts. High density and good room temperature mechanical properties have generated interest in evaluating tungsten and tungsten alloys as kinetic energy penetrators against armor. Nowdays ultra fine-grained tungsten powders are in great interest because higly dense structures can be obtained at low temperature, pressure and lower sintering time. Several physical md chemical methods are available for the synthesis of nanometric metal Powders: ball milling, laser abalation, vapor condensation, chemical precipitation, metallic wire explosion i.e. However production rates of the above mentioned methods are low and further efforts are needed to find out large-scale synthesis methods. From this point of view solid state combustion method ( known as SHS) represents undoubted interest.

With the increasing performance and density of VLSI scircuits as well as the popularity of portable devices such as personal digital assitance, power consumption has emerged as an important issue in the design of electronic systems. Low power design techniqeus have been pursued at all design levels. However, it is more effective to attempt to reduce power dissipation at higher levels of abstraction which allow wider view. In this paper, we propose a simultaneous scheduling and binding scheme which increases the correlation between cosecutive inputs to an operation so that the switched capacitance of execution units is reduced in datapath-dominated circuits. The proposed method is implemented and integrated into the scheduling and assignment part of HYPER synthesis environment. Compared with original HYPER synthesis system, average power saving of 23.0% in execution units and 14.2% in the whole circuits, ar eobtained for a set of benchmark examples.

By considering low power design at higher levels of abstraction rather than at lower levels of abstraction, we can apply various transformation techniques to a system design with wider view and obtain much more effective power reduction with less cost and effort. In this paper, a transformation technique, called power - conscious loop folding is proposed for high level synthesis of a low power system.Our work is focused on reducing the power consumed by functional units in adata path dominated circuit through the decrease of switching activity. Te transformation algorithm has been implemented and integrated into HYPER, a high level synthesis system for experiments. In our experiments, we could achieve a pwoer reduction of up to 50% for data path dominated circuits.

Multi-view 영상 DB의 surround view 입체 화상을 재현하기 위해서는 영상 정보를 효과적으로 합성, 보간하는 방법이 필연적으로 요구된다. 다시점 입체 영상의 표시 기능을 구현하기 위해서 이론적으로는 충분한 개수의 카메라를 상하 좌우로 배치하여 영상을 획득하고 보는 이의 위치에 가장 적합한 영상을 선택하여 표현하면 된다. 이 경우 많은 수의 카메라로부터 입력되는 방대한 영상 데이터의 저장, 처리, 전송, 설치 문제 등 현실적으로 많은 제약점이 존재한다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 기존의 블록 매칭과 같은 3D 구조 추정에 기초하여 블록 단위의 깊이 정보와 텍스쳐 정보의 추출, 다시점 영상 set의 가장 왼쪽 영상으로부터 시작하여 차례로 한 줄씩 쌓아서 얻어진 EPI(Epipolar Plane Image)에 기초한 유사 영상 값의 자취선 탐색 방법에 의한 시차와 텍스쳐 정보 추출로 전체 다안화상을 다해상도로 표현하여 전송하는 방식을 제안한다. 다해상도의 영상 표현과 점진적 전송 방법을 통해 다시점 영상 검색 시스템의 성능향상을 위한 네트워크 모델링을 제안하고자 한다.

In stereoscopic television, there is a trade-off between visual comfort and 3-dimensional (3D) impact with respect to the baseline-stretch of a 3DTV camera. It is necessary to adjust the baseline-stretch at an appropriate the distance depending on the contents of a scene if we want to obtain a subjectively optimal quality of an image. However, it is very hard to obtain a small baseline-stretch using commercially available cameras of broadcasting quality where the sizes of the lens and CCD module are large. In order to overcome this limitation, we attempt to freely control the baseline-stretch of a stereoscopic camera by synthesizing the virtual views at the desired location of interval between two cameras. This proposed technique is based on the stereo matching and view synthesis techniques. We first obtain a dense disparity map using a hierarchical stereo matching with the edge-adaptive multiple shifted windows. Then, we synthesize the virtual views using the disparity map. Simulation results with various stereoscopic images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

In this paper. we generate a virtual right image corresponding to the input left image by using given RGB texture data and 8 bit gray scale depth data. We first transform the depth data to disparity data and then produce the virtual right image with this disparity. We also proposed a stereo image synthesis algorithm which is adaptable to a viewer's position and an real-time processing algorithm with a fast LUT(look up table) method. Finally, we could synthesize a total of eleven stereo images with different view points for SD quality of a texture image with 8 bit depth information in a real time.

Pre-processing is one of image processing techniques to enhance image quality or appropriately convert a given image into another form for a specific purpose. An 8 bit depth map obtained by a depth camera usually contains a lot of noisy components caused by the characteristics of depth camera and edges are also more distorted by the quality of a source object and illumination condition comparing with edges in RGB texture image. To reduce this distortion, we use noise removing filters, but they are only able to reduce noise components, so that distorted edges of depth map can not be properly recovered. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can reduce noise components and also enhance the quality of edges of depth map by using edges in RGB texture. Consequently, we can reduce errors in multi-view stereo image synthesis process.

Since the stereoscopic 3-dimensional (3D) video that provides users with a realistic multimedia service requires twice as much data as 2-dimensional (2D) video, it is difficult to construct the fast system. In this paper, we propose a fast stereoscopic 3D broadcasting system based on the depth information. Before the transmission, we encode the input 2D+depth video using x264, an open source H.264/AVC fast encoder to reduce the size of the data. At the receiver, we decode the transmitted bitstream in real time using a compute unified device architecture (CUDA) video decoder API on NVIDIA graphics processing unit (GPU). Then, we apply a fast view synthesis method that generates the virtual view using GPU. The proposed system can display the output video in both 2DTV and 3DTV. From the experiment, we verified that the proposed system can service the stereoscopic 3D contents in 24 frames per second at most.
