Gamification can be more fun and interesting than boring and it can be used for variety of educational subjects. Through the fun and flow of the learner, the learner understands the meaning and context of the problem to be solved. It will be able to collect, analyze and creatively solve data in a way that computers understand. Training through gamification will be an effective and memorable coding education for the efficient learning of coding education among the newly designated compulsory education. It is considered to be highly useful as a convergence study to increase tourism experience. Currently, in the field of school, coding education is mainly conducted using entry and scratch, which are educational programming languages, and coding education using gamification is not extensively used in the current education field. It is also expected to be used to increase the tourism experience, and it can be used to enhance the learner's computational thinking ability and creativity.

An optical flow-based motion estimation algorithm is proposed for video coding. The algorithm uses block-matching motion estimation with an adaptive search region. The search region is computed from motion fields that are estimated based on the optical flow. The algorithm is based on the fact that true block-motion vectors have similar characteristics to optical flow vectors. Thereafter, the search region is computed using these optical flow vectors that include spatial relationships. In conventional block matching, the search region is fixed. In contrast, in the new method, the appropriate size and location of the search region are both decided by the proposed algorithm. The results obtained using test images show that the proposed algorithm can produce a significant improvement compared with previous block-matching algorithms.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify the role of digital shadow work(DSW) in the psychological mechanism that controls using and purchasing digital device accessories. More specifically, it is to reveal how the digital device user's perception of DSW is formed and how the formed DSW affects purchase and what results it will bring. Design/methodology/approach Ground theory method(GTM), one of qualitative appoaches, is adopted as research methodology. By interviewing total twenty five users, the data are analyzed by open coding amd axis coding. Two core codes are selected by selective coding and interpreted by DSW theory. Findings We find concern for potential DSW and generation of new DSW. Concern for potential DSW lead to the purchase of accessorie which would be supposed to reduce potential DSW. During purchasing accessories, quest type DSW, which provices flow experience and expertise, could be genterated. This means that there would be dynamics of DSW in the purchase process of digital device accessories.

We propose a new hierarchical motion estimator architecture that supports the advanced prediction mode of recent low bit-rate video coders such as H.263 and MPEG-4. In the proposed VLSI architecture, a basic searching unit (BSU) is commonly utilized for all hierarchical levels to make a systematic and small sized motion estimator. Since the memory bank of the proposed architecture provides scheduled data flow for calculating 8$\times$8 block-based sum of absolute difference (SAD), both a macroblock-based motion vector (MV) and four block-based MVs are simultaneously obtained for each macroblock in the advanced prediction mode. The proposed motion estimator gives similar coding performance compared with full search block matching algorithm (FSBMA) while achieving small size and satisfying the advanced prediction mode.

The power flow calculations(PFc) are the most important and powerful tools in power systems engineering. The conventional power flow problem is solved generally with numerical methods such as Newton-Raphson(NR). The conventional numerical method generally have some convergency problem, which is sensitive to initial value, and numerical stability problem concerned with jacobian matrix inversion. This paper presents a new PFc algorithm based on the improved genetic algorithm (IGA) which can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above. The parameters of GA, with dynamical hierarchy of the coding system, are improved to make GA a practical algorithm in the problem of real system. Some case studies with test bus system also present to show the performance of proposed algorithm. The results of proposed algorithm are compared with the results of PFc obtained using a conventional NR method.

Parametric study on the efficiency of Rotary Solid Dehumidifer are reported. Experi-ments have been performed by varying regeneration temperature, regeneration humidity, flow rate of regeneration air, angular velocity of dehumidifer rotor and regeneration angle. To improve the energy efficiency, MODE 2,3 where coding zone is constructed and MODE 4, 5 where recirculating zone is constructed, were studied through experimental method $\ldots$. These results show that economical operating ranges exist in regeneration temperature, flow rate of regeneration air, angular velocity of dehumidifier rotor and regeneration angle. MODE 2,3 where cooling zone is constructed between regeneration Bone and process zone, is far better than MODE 1 in view of energy effiency, and optimum cooling angle and flow rate of cooling air exist. But MODE 4 and MODE 5, where recirculating zone is constructed, are similar to MODE 1.

HEVC is a state-of-the-art video coding standard developed by JCT-VC. HEVC provides about 2 times higher subjective coding efficiency than H.264/AVC. One of the main goal of HEVC development is to efficiently coding UHD resolution video so that HEVC is expected to be widely used for coding UHD resolution video. Decoding such high resolution video generates a large number of memory accesses, so a decoding system needs high-bandwidth for memory system and/or internal communication architecture. In order to determine such requirements, this paper presents an analysis of the memory access complexity for HEVC decoder. we first estimate the amount of memory access performed by software HEVC decoder on an embedded system and a desktop computer. Then, we present the memory bandwidth models for HEVC decoder by analyzing the data flow of HEVC decoding tools. Experimental results show the software decoder produce 6.9-40.5 GB/s of DRAM accesses. also, the analysis reveals the hardware decoder requires 2.4 GB/s of DRAM bandwidth.
