This study is to find out primary factors through the punch list in the large scale apartment housing complex, to prevent repeatedly occurring defects of construction and to gain quality management. The following are the findings of the research. (1) The positive strengthening of supervision for the workers can contribute to prevent defects of apartment construction and make better quality of the construction. (2) A solution should be made for the poor of surface join and the damage of work element showing a lot in the apart construction, which prevent defects and improve construction quality. (3) Indirect factors such as negligence and carelessness of the management should be improved to advance construction quality, and the caution and control strengthening of the management should be followed. It is revealed that hitch, omission, and heedlessness come from the defects, and the shortage of skill and checking appear as indirect factors. Therefore, to get quality improvement, the enhancement of the management factors, employment of excellent workers, and enhancement of working attitude and construction management are needed.

Multi-view video consists of a set of multiple video sequences from multiple viewpoints or view directions in the same scene. It contains extremely a large amount of data and some extra information to be stored or transmitted to the user. This paper presents inter-view correlations among video objects and the background to reduce the prediction complexity while achieving a high coding efficiency in multi-view video coding. Our proposed algorism is based on object-based segmentation scheme that utilizes video object information obtained from the coded base view. This set of data help us to predict disparity vectors and motion vectors in enhancement views by employing object registration, which leads to high compression and low-complexity coding scheme for enhancement views. An experimental results show that the superiority can provide an improvement of PSNR gain 2.5.3 dB compared to the simulcast.

We have made modulation doped SMQW-PBH-DFB-LD for high speed optical communications. The waveguide and barrier layers were doped by Zn with the concentration of $1.2 \times 10^{18}cm^{-1}$. Mean threshold current and slope efficiency were 24.88 mA (minimum 16 mA) and 0.197 mW/mA (maximum 0.275 mW/mA) respectively. Linewidth enhancement factor ($\alpha$) of MD-SMQW-PBH-DFB-LD was reduced than that of SMQW-PBH-DFB-LD. Linewidth enhancement factor of 1.8 owes to the large gain coefficient of modulation doped active layer. The resonance frequency was linearly increased with the square root of optical power. The resonance frequency in small signal modulation was measured as 8 GHz and -3 dB modulation bandwidth was 10 GHzat $46mA(I_{th}+30mA)$..

In this paper, a new MBHF(Morphology-Based Homomorphic filter) is presented to enhance contrast in mammographic images. The MBH filtering is performed based on the morphological sub-bands, in which an image is morphologically decomposed. The filter is designed to have optimal gain and structuring element in each sub-band through differential evolution. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the contrast in mammographic images such that an evaluation criterion, WPSNR(Weighted Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) which takes into account human visual system is increased compared with a wavelet-based Homomorphic filter.

Surface plasmon effect was considered importantly because of the enhancement of optical signals. It is important to detect weak optical signal in neuroscience and bio technology due to detect weaker image or signal. The height of silver can change the optical characteristic of plasmonic nano structure including transmittance and reflectance. In this paper, the optical characteristic of plasmonic nano structure were confirmed by the FDTD analysis method depending on the silver height and it was confirmed that energy was concentrated at the center of nano structure, and high far-field gain and current density in particular wavelength coule be obtained.

This paper introduces 3 type of OTAs with $0.35-{\mu}m$ standard CMOS technology for Low-Power, Low-Voltage. The first type is a two-stage OTA designed to operate with a 1-V VDD and it has $1.774{\mu}W$ low power consumption. All transistors are operating in strong inversion. It takes Gm-Enhancement techniques to compensate gm, which is lowered by Bulk-Driven technique and has an Wide swing current mirror for low voltage operation and a Class-A output. The second type is a Two-stage OTA designed to operate with a 0.8-V VDD and It has 52nW low power consumption and 112dB high gain. The current mirror uses Composite Transistor binding Gates of two MOSFET to raise Rout which is similar with cascode structure. The third type is a Two-stage OTA designed to operate with a 0.6-V VDD and It has 160nW low power consumption and 72dB high gain. It takes Level Shift technique by Common Gate structure to amplify signals without additional bias voltage at second stage.

The fuzzy self-tuning PID controller is a PID controller with a fuzzy logic mechanism for tuning its gains on-line. In this structure, the proportional, integral and derivative gains are tuned on-line with respect to the change of the output of system under control. This paper deals with two types of fuzzy self-tuning PID controllers, rule-based fuzzy PID controller and learning fuzzy PID controller. As a medical application of fuzzy PID controller, the proposed controllers were implemented and evaluated in a laparoscopic surgery robot system. The proposed fuzzy PID structures maintain similar performance as conventional PID controller, and enhance the position tracking performance over wide range of varying input. For precise approximation, the fuzzy PID controller was realized using the linear reasoning method, a type of product-sum-gravity method. The proposed controllers were compared with conventional PID controller without fuzzy gain tuning and was proved to have better performance in the experiment.

Recently, technical trend for machine tools is focused on enhancement of speed and accuracy. High speedy processing causes thermal and structural deformation of objects from the machine tools. Water cooler has to be applied to machine tools to reduce the thermal negative influence with accurate temperature controlling system. Existing On-Off control type can't control temperature accurately because compressor is operated and stopped repeatedly and causes increment of power consumption and decrement of the expected life of compressor. The goal of this study is to minimize temperature error in steady state. In addition, control period of an electronic expansion valve were considered to increment of lifetime of the machine tools and quality of product with a water cooler. PI controller is designed using type of hot-gas bypass for precise control of temperature. Gain of PI is decided easily by method of critical oscillation response, excellent performance of control is shown with 4.24% overshoot and ${\pm}0.2^{\circ}C$error of steady state. Also, error range of temperature is controlled within $0.2^{\circ}C$although disturbance occurs.

This paper reports a filtered velocity feedback(FVF) controller, which is an alternative to direct velocity feedback(DVFB) controller. The instability problems due to high frequency response under DVFB can be alleviated by the suggested FVF controller. The FVF controller is designed to filter out the unstable high frequency response. The FVF controller and the dynamics of clamped beams under forces and moments are first formulated. The effects of the design parameters(cut-off frequency, gain, and damping ratio) on the stability and the performance are then investigated. The cut-off frequency should be selected not to affect the system stability. The magnitude of the open loop transfer function(OLTF) at the cut-off frequency should be small. As increasing the gain of the FVF controller, the magnitude of the OLTF is increased, so that the closed loop response can be reduced more. The enhancement of the OLTF at the cut-off frequency is reduced but the phase behavior around the cut-off frequency is distorted, as the damping ratio is increased. The control performance is finally estimated for the clamped beam. More than 10 dB reductions in velocity response can be achieved at the modal frequencies from the first to eighth modes.
