Coverage problem is a research hot spot in directional sensor networks (DSNs). However, the major problem affecting the performance of the current coverage-enhancing strategies is that they just optimize the coverage of networks, but ignore the maximum number of sleep sensors to save more energy. Aiming to find an approximate optimal method that can cover maximum area with minimum number of active sensors, in this paper, a new scheduling algorithm based on learning automata is proposed to enhance area coverage, and shut off redundant sensors as many as possible. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, several experiments are conducted. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm have effective performance in terms of coverage enhancement and sleeping sensors compared to the existing algorithms.

In the current analysis, we examine news coverage data widely used in media studies. News coverage data is usually time series data to capture the volume or the tone of the news media's coverage of a topic. We first describe the distributional properties of autoregressive conditionally heteroscadestic(ARCH) effects and compare two major American newspaper's coverage of U.S.-North Korea relations. Subsequently, we propose a change point detection model and apply it to the detection of major change points in the tone of American newspaper coverage of U.S.-North Korea relations.

In order to control the non-point source pollution, a vegetative filter strips (VFS) was set up and the site-monitoring was performed. The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of the plant coverage on treatment efficiency of total nitrogen (T-N) and total phosphorus (T-P) using vegetative filter strips. According to the results, it seemed that the treatment efficiencies of T-N and T-P were closely related with the plant coverage ratio. The results showed that treatment efficiency of T-P average 50% at higher than 50% of the plant coverage and 20~23% at lower than 50% of the plant coverage. Also, the treatment efficiency of T-N increased with the increase of the plant coverage ratio.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop an optimal combine scheduling program using Max-Coverage algorithm which derives the maximum efficiency for a specific location in harvest seasons. Methods: The combine scheduling program was operated with information about combine specification and farmland. Four operating types (Max-Coverage algorithm type, Boustrophedon path type, max quality value type, and max area type) were selected to compare quality and working capacity. Result: The working time of Max-Coverage algorithm type was shorter than others, and the total quality value of Max-Coverage algorithm and max quality value type were higher than others. Conclusion: The developed combine scheduling program using Max-Coverage algorithm will provide optimal operation and maximum quality in a limited area and time.

The concept of the coverage has been played an important role in the area of reliability evaluation of a system. The widely used measures of reliability include the m time between failures, the availability and so on. In this paper, we propose an estimator of the coverage probability in a redundant system with a control unit and investigate some moments of the proposed estimator. And assuming exponential distribution of all units, we conduct a simulation study for calculating the estimates of the coverage probability and its confidence bounds. An example of evaluating the availability of an optical transportation system is illustrated.

Using three existing trade bibliographies, the catalog database of the National Central Library was evaluated. A total of 8,901 books sampled are used as the basis for the measurement. Results indicate about 70% coverage for the in print books, 80% coverage for the books published in 1993, and 40% coverage for the books published in 1994. The coverage analysis according to time lag ranged from 18% to 54%. In the subjects of generalities and linguistics. low coverage was found consistently. Areas for future research are briefly examined.

This paper describes a VHDL code coverage checker for If design and verification. Applying the verification coverage to IP design is a methodology rapidly gaining popularity. This enables the designers to improve the IP design quality and reduces the time-to-market by providing the Quantitative measure of simulation completeness and test benches. To support this methodology, a VHDL code coverage model was defined and the measurement tool was developed.

This research explores the empirical confirmation of the Internet development including from the period of innovation to the time of social-cultural use in today. The research focused on how tradition news media rover about the Internet developed from early to today, and understanding the media characteristics on the each stages from news frame. The research Is designed to conduit content analysis from 1989 to 2004, then this research is divided four(4) stages of the Internet development: innovation, diffusion, commercial usage, social-cultural usage. The results shows that there are significant different coverage by the stages. First of all, the news coverage pattern shift from technology focused on early stages to social usage focused on the later stages. This research confirms that the ratio of the seriation(technology) coverage defined when social usage is increased, on the other hand skeumorphs(social usage and content) coverage is increased in the commercial and social usage stages. This coverage pattern among news media does not such a big different and there is no competitive coverage. Moreover, the news coverage shifted from thematic coverage on early stages to episodic coverage while the number of usage increasing. In addition, the tone of coverage has not been changed significantly.

We are trying to evaluate usefulness of Wide Coverage Volume Axial Mode by comparing and analyzing for exposure doses to patients and video quality extracted from two materials. First material is a computer tomography scanning of paediatric cardiac made by using High Pitch Mode, which is designed for diagnosing Congenital cardiac diseases. Second material is computer tomography scanning of paediatric cardiac made by using Wide Coverage Volume Axial Mode. When we did computer tomography scanning of paediatric cardiac, we used High Pitch Mode and Wide Coverage Volume Axial Mode to 50 patients of each, overall 100 patients. Also, we compared exposure doses to patients using videos got from each protocol. Then we compared video quality by calculating SNR and CNR by setting ROI of each. Not only exposure doses to patients were reduced by 13.07 %, but also SNR and CNR were improved when testing used Wide Coverage Volume Axial Mode rather than using High Pitch Mode. Wide Coverage Volume Axial Mode reduced testing time by using high-speed scanner. Furthermore, we can find out that Wide Coverage Volume Axial Mode is an useful method through improving video quality and reducing exposure doses to patients than using High Pitch Mode from ASiR-V, which is low-dose technology.

This study examines coverage and coverage overlap of the three major Korean web directories, Naver, Yahoo Korea, and Empas. This study also suggests a methodology for collecting and processing web sites provided by these web directories. A method for napping main categories was developed. Each directory provided registered web pages in a slightly different way. Reference links had a significant influence on the coverage of each web directory. The overlap of pages among three directories was quite low, It is expected that this study could contribute to the field of web research by providing insights to how directories provide web pages and suggesting a methodology for the analysis of directory coverage.
