The objective of this paper is to accommodate the existing motion-capture-based animation to small memories and low computing powers of mobile embedded systems. To use efficiently memories, we propose a paradigm in which a motion capture database is compressed on a PC and so-compressed motion capture database is decompressed little by little on mobile embedded systems and the decompressed data are eliminated right after used. As a compression method for this paradigm we propose an approach that compresses captured motion rendering parameters using a polynomial function fitting method. To enhance its performance we also propose an optimization method for the degree of the polynomial fitting function. Using so-obtained compression method we demonstrate motion-capture-based animation on commercial mobile embedded systems.

In this paper, we developed an XML Document Data Synchronization System for java(XDS4j) based on both SyncML(Synchronization Markup Language) framework Sync4j and embedded database system Berkeley DB XML. Because most existing data synchronization systems are based on file systems, data synchronization times at Fast Sync in those systems are very delayed. In the XDS4j, however, XML documents data produced at SyncML client and SyncML server are managed by embedded database system, and also synchronization time at Fast Sync is reduced because only partial elements are accessed by applying to XPath.

The importance of XML data and their database supports in a mobile terminal system is on the increase. It leads to active research for embedded XML database systems. In order to handle in documents, DOM API should be supported. The existing DOM API is not suitable for the embedded system with limited resource because the DOM tree requires a large space on main memory. Considering poor resource of embedded systems, we present persistent DOM which is implemented on Berkeley DB and DOMdbm which manages it.

Embedded database systems (EDBMS) based on NAND flash memories are widely adopted for logging data on sensor nodes. Since write and erase operations of a flash memory are time consuming compared to read operations and wear memory cells, it is important to reduce these operations to enhance the EDBMS performance and to extend the memory life. In this paper, we propose a delayed write scheme to archive this goal. Proposed scheme stores updated parts of database pages into delayed write records to reduce the database page writes. By doing that, it decreases write and erase operations on a flash memory. Therefore, the proposed scheme enhances the logging performance of a write-intensive EDBMS on a sensor node and extends the flash memory life.

Most traditional database systems exploit a record-oriented model where the attributes of a record are placed contiguously in a hard disk to achieve high performance writes. However, for read-mostly data warehouse systems, the column-oriented database has become a proper model because of its superior read performance. Today, flash memory is largely recognized as the preferred storage media for high-speed database systems. In this paper, we introduce a column-oriented database model based on flash memory and then propose a new column-aware flash indexing scheme for the high-speed column-oriented data warehouse systems. Our index management scheme, which uses an enhanced $B^+$-Tree, achieves superior search performance by indexing an embedded segment and packing an unused space in internal and leaf nodes. Based on the performance results of two test databases, we concluded that the column-aware flash index management outperforms the traditional scheme in the respect of the mixed operation throughput and its response time.

The DBMS are widely used in embedded systems. The flash memory is used as a storage device of a embedded system. The optimizer of existing database system assumes that the storage device is disk. There is overhead to overwrite on flash memory unlike disk. The block of flash memory should be erased before write. Due to this reason, query optimization model based on disk does not adequate for flash-aware database. Especially embedded system should minimize the consumption of energy, but consumes more energy because of excessive erase operations. This paper proposes new energy based cost model of embedded database and shows the comparison between disk based cost model and energy based cost model.

Today, most of all the query processors in the world generally use the 'Pipelining' method to acquire fast response time (first record latency) and less memory usage. Each of the operator nodes in the Query Execution Plan (QEP) provides Open(), Next(), and Close() functions for their interface to facilitate the iterator mechanism. However, the embedded database systems for the mobile devices, based on the FLASH memory, usually require a function like Previous(), which returns the previous records from current position. It is because that, in the embedded environment, the mobile devices cannot fully provide it main memory to store all the query results. So, whenever needed the previously read records the user (program) should re-fetch the previous records using the Previous() function: the BACKWARD data fetch. In this paper, I introduce the 'Direction Switching Problem' caused by the Previous() function and suggest 'Block-wise Skipping' method to fully utilize the benefits of the block-based data transfer mechanism, which is widely accepted by most of the today's relational database management systems.

With embedded computing technology makes progress , various applications have been developing in PDA. And information exchanging through U document is underway actively between applications in internet environment. But most of the embedded system has Poor hardware resource. And embedded system uses own file system for XML document management. For reason of, it occurs to many of difficulties of data share and information exchange among other systems. Therefore, an importance of the XML Document Database Management System is on the rise in the embedded system. In this Paper, we design and implement Embedded XML Document Database Management System(EXDMS) for efficiently management of XML document and supporting data sharing and information exchanging through XML document in embedded system. As compared with file system, EXDMS shows results that more excellent performance about expandability and compatibility of application. Also, EXDMS has an excellent data Processing performance in poor system environment.

In this paper, we proposed Wireless LAN (WLAN) localization method that enhances database construction based on weighting factor and analyse the characteristic of the WLAN received signals. The weighting factor plays a key role as it determines the importance of Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) value from number of received signals (frequency). The fingerprint method is the most widely used method in WLAN-based positioning methods because it has high location accuracy compare to other indoor positioning methods. The fingerprint method has different location accuracies which depend on training phase and positioning phase. In training phase, intensity of RSSI is measured under the various. Conventional systems adapt average of RSSI samples in a database construction, which is not quite accurate due to variety of RSSI samples. In this paper, we analyse WLAN RSSI characteristic from anechoic chamber test, and analyze the causes of various distributions of RSSI and its influence on location accuracy in indoor environments. In addition, we proposed enhanced weighting factor algorithm for accurate database construction and compare location accuracy of proposed algorithm with conventional algorithm by computer simulations and tests.

Each ADS must have a validation and evaluation scenario for ODD. This requires a large number of scenarios, so a scenario library must be developed. In order to effectively utilize the scenario library, a system that supports testing in the ODD of the user's choice is required. In other words, in order to develop a scenario library, it is necessary to build a database on actual driving road conditions (geometry, etc.). Accordingly, in this study, we establish a domestic driving environment database based on HD-Map for driving safety testing, design a system that can search test target sections in connection with the ODD of the scenario, and present the implementation results. In the future, it is expected that the domestic driving environment database will be able to create scenarios through linking with the scenario library and directly utilize them for scenario-based evaluation of various demand sources.
