Virtual reality technology has been widely used in the field of nuclear and radiation safety, dose rate computing in virtual environment is essential for optimizing radiation protection and planning the work in radioactive-controlled area. Because the CPU-based gamma dose rate computing takes up a large amount of time and computing power for voxelization of volumetric radioactive source, it is inefficient and limited in its applied scope. This study is to develop an efficient gamma dose rate computing code and apply into fast virtual simulation. To improve the computing efficiency of the point kernel algorithm in the reference (Li et al., 2020), we design a GPU-based computing framework for taking full advantage of computing power of virtual engine, propose a novel voxelization algorithm of volumetric radioactive source. According to the framework, we develop the GPPK(GPU-based point kernel gamma dose rate computing) code using GPU programming, to realize the fast dose rate computing in virtual world. The test results show that the GPPK code is play and plug for different scenarios of virtual simulation, has a better performance than CPU-based gamma dose rate computing code, especially on the voxelization of three-dimensional (3D) model. The accuracy of dose rates from the proposed method is in the acceptable range.

Sustainable computing is a rapidly expanding field of research covering the fields of multidisciplinary engineering. With the rapid adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, issues such as security, privacy, efficiency, and green computing infrastructure are increasing day by day. To achieve a sustainable computing ecosystem for future smart cities, it is important to take into account their entire life cycle from design and manufacturing to recycling and disposal as well as their wider impact on humans and the places around them. The energy efficiency aspects of the computing system range from electronic circuits to applications for systems covering small IoT devices up to large data centers. This editorial focuses on the security, privacy, and efficiency of sustainable computing for future smart cities. This issue accepted 17 articles after a rigorous review process.

일반적인 가상화 플랫폼에서는 가상화 소프트웨어가 소프트웨어적으로 에뮬레이션하여 제공하는 가상 I/O 장치들을 가상 플랫폼에서 사용한다. 소프트웨어 에뮬레이션 기반 I/O 장치들을 사용하는 가상 플랫폼들은 성능이 떨어지고 고사양의 응용 프로그램을 지원할 수 없는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 해당 문제점을 극복하기 위해 PCI 기반 하드웨어 장치들을 가상 플랫폼에 직접 할당하여 고품질의 가상 플랫폼을 제공하는 기술을 설계 및 구현한다.

Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) is an electroactive polymer (EAP) and a promising candidate actuator for various potential applications mainly due to its flexible, low voltage/power requirements, small and compact design, and lack of moving parts. Although widely used in industry, this material requires accurate numerical models and knowledge of optimal control methods. This paper presents State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) approach as one of rapidly emerging methodologies for designing nonlinear controllers. Additionally, the present paper describes a novel method of Multi HGO Observer design. In the proposed design, the calculated position of the IPMC strip accurately tracks the target position, which is illustrated by the experiments. Numerical results and comparison with experimental data are presented and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified in experiments.

This note addresses the problem of reliable (equation omitted) output-feedback control design for linear systems with actuator and/or sensor failures. An output feedback control design is proposed which stabilizes the plant and guarantees an (equation omitted)-norm bound on at-tenuation of augmented disturbances including all admissible actuator/sensor failures. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, the output- feedback controller design method is constructed by formulating to LMIs that cover all failure cases. Ef-fectiveness of this controller is validated via a numerical example.

The wind generators have been installed with high output power to increase the energy production and efficiency. Hence, Optimal design of the direct-driven PM wind generator, coupled with F.E.M(Finite Element Method) and Genetic Algorithm(GA), has been performed to maximize the Annual Energy Production(AEP) over the whole wind speed characterized by the statistical model of wind speed distribution. Particularly, the parallel computing via internet web service has been applied to loose excessive computing times for optimization. The results of the optimal design of Surface-Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator(SPMSG) are compared with each other candidates to verify the usefulness of the maximizing AEP model.

LMS algorithm has been used for plant identifier and noise cancellation. This algorithm has been researched for performance enhancement of filtering. The design and development of a reliable system has been becoming a key issue in industry field because the reliability of a system is considered as an important factor to perform the system's function successfully. And the computing with reliability and fault tolerance is a important factor in the case of aviation, system communication, and nuclear plant. This paper presents design of reliable adaptive filter with fault tolerance. Generally, redundancy is used for reliability. In this case it needs computing or circuit for voting mechanism, or fault detection. Therefore it has simple computing, and practicality for application. And in this paper, reliability of adaptive filter is analyzed. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive filter is demonstrated to the case studies of plant identifier and noise cancellation by using DSP.

Existing systems that support semistructured views do not maintain semantics during the process of designing the views. Thus, these systems do not guarantee the validity and reversibility of the views. In this paper, we propose an approach to address the issue of valid and reversible semistructured views, We design a set of view operators for designing semistructured views. These operators are select, drop, join and swap. For each operator, we develop a complete set of rules to maintain the semantics of the views. In particular, we maintain the evolution and integrity of relationships once an operator is applied. We also examine the reversible view problem under our operators and develop rules to guarantee that the designed views are reversible. Finally, we examine the changes in the participation constraints of relationship types during the view design process, and develop rules to ensure the correctness of the participation constraints.

At the present time the task of designing a highly integrated ZigBee radio frequency (RF) receiver with an excellent coexistence performance is still very demanding and challenging. This paper presents a number of system issues and design considerations for a ZigBee RF receiver, namely IEEE 802.15.4, for coexistence with wireless devices in the 2.4-GHz ISM-band. With regard to IEEE 802.15.4, the paper analyzes receiver performance requirements for; system noise figure (NF), system third-order intercept point (system-IIP3), local oscillator phase noise and selectivity. Based on some assumptions, the paper illustrates the relationship between minimum detectable signal (MDS) and various situations that involve the effects of electromagnetic interference generated by other wireless devices. We infer the necessity of much more stringent specification requirements than the published standard for various wireless communication field environments

가용 센서를 내장하고 있는 모바일 디바이스의 사용이 많아지고 자동화, 자율화, 사용자 맞춤식 서비스의 요구가 커짐에 따라 컨텍스트 인지 모바일 컴퓨팅 (Context-Aware Mobile Computing)의 필요성이 증대하고 있다. 하지만 추론 시스템 설계는 컨텍스트 분석, 인지하고자 하는 상황분석 등의 복잡한 과정을 요구한다. 또한 모바일 디바이스의 제한된 자원 때문에 컴퓨팅 파워가 높은 서버에 탑재된 추론 엔진을 통해 추론을 수행하는 것이 적합하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 과정을 간결하고 정확하게 표현하기 위한 컨텍스트-상황 추론 요소의 범용적 정형 모델을 제안하고 추론 요소들의 정형 모델을 실사례에 적용하여 본 논문에서 제안하고 있는 추론 요소들의 정형 모델이 실효성을 가지고 있으며 범용적임을 보여준다. 또한 제한한 추론 요소들을 컴퓨팅 환경에서 실현화하기 위해 제안한 정형 모델들을 기반으로 추론 엔진을 설계 및 구현하고 추론 실험을 통해 추론 엔진의 실효성과 재사용성을 검증한다.
