  • Eye gaze as a form of input was primarily developed for users who are unable to use usual interaction devices such as keyboard and the mouse; however, with the increasing accuracy in eye gaze detection with decreasing cost of development, it tends to be a practical interaction method for able-bodied users in soon future as well. This paper explores a low-cost, robust, rotation and illumination independent eye gaze system for gaze enhanced user interfaces. We introduce two brand-new algorithms for fast and sub-pixel precise pupil center detection and 2D Eye Gaze estimation by means of deformable template matching methodology. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm based on the deformable angular integral search algorithm based on minimum intensity value to localize eyeball (iris outer boundary) in gray scale eye region images. Basically, it finds the center of the pupil in order to use it in our second proposed algorithm which is about 2D eye gaze tracking. First, we detect the eye regions by means of Intel OpenCV AdaBoost Haar cascade classifiers and assign the approximate size of eyeball depending on the eye region size. Secondly, using DAISMI (Deformable Angular Integral Search by Minimum Intensity) algorithm, pupil center is detected. Then, by using the percentage of black pixels over eyeball circle area, we convert the image into binary (Black and white color) for being used in the next part: DTBGE (Deformable Template based 2D Gaze Estimation) algorithm. Finally, using DTBGE algorithm, initial pupil center coordinates are assigned and DTBGE creates new pupil center coordinates and estimates the final gaze directions and eyeball size. We have performed extensive experiments and achieved very encouraging results. Finally, we discuss the effectiveness of the proposed method through several experimental results.

  • Using a reference slurry, ammonium dodecyl sulfate (ADS), an anionic and environmentally friendly surfactant, was investigated as an alternative to BTA for its inhibition and lubrication characteristics. Results demonstrated that the inhibition efficiency of ADS was superior to that of BTA. Coefficient of friction (COF) was the lowest when the slurry contained ADS. This suggested that adsorbed ADS on the surface provided lubricating action thereby reducing the wear between the contacting surfaces. Temperature results were consistent with the COF and removal rate data. ADS showed the lowest temperature rise again confirming the softening effect of the adsorbed surfactant layer and less energy dissipation due to friction. Spectral analysis of shear force showed that increasing the pad-wafer sliding velocity at constant wafer pressure shifted the high frequency spectral peaks to lower frequencies while increasing the variance of the frictional force. Addition of ADS reduced the fluctuating component of the shear force and the extent of the pre-existing stick-slip phenomena caused by the kinematics of the process and collision event between pad asperities with the wafer. By contrast, in the case of BTA, there were no such observed benefits but instead undesirable effects were seen at some polishing conditions. This work underscored the importance of real-time force spectroscopy in elucidating the adsorption, lubrication and inhibition of additives in slurries in CMP.

  • SPEC CPU2000 is an widely used benchmark program, both in industry and in academy, for measuring compute-intensive performance of computer systems with various architectures. However, there has been little effort to investigate its characteristics with respect to hardware components. This paper presents the performance scalability of SPEC CPU2000 benchmark over CPU clock speed. For an Intel x86-based system running at various clock speed, we measure the performance of SPEC CPU2000 benchmark, and analyze the characteristic of SPEC CPU2000 in a system aspect. In the experiment, we found that the overall performance of SPEC CPU2000 increases monotonically and linearly as the CPU clock speed increases and that the scale efficiencies of SPEC CPU2000 component benchmarks are quite evenly distributed.

  • A modified technique of the transient hot wire method to measure the thermal conductivity of fluid has been described in this paper. The thermal conductivity of fluid can be obtained by acquiring wire temperature as a function of time. Multiplication of the inverse slope of the temperature versus logarithm of time by an instrumental constant gives the thermal conductivity. The constant voltage was applied to Wheatstone bridge circuit. The wire temperature can be measured as a function of time precisely with the aid of the data acquisition system composed of a microprocessor and an analog-digital converter. The thermal conductivity of the electrically conducting fluid has been measured with the insulated hot wire coated by electrically non-conducting material. The effect of the coated insulation layer on the thermal conductivity has been examined, in which it is confirmed that the thermal conductivity of electrically conducting liquid can be determined by the transient coated hot wire method. Thermal conductivities of methanol, carbontetrachrolide, Freon-22 and glycerin have been measured at room temperature in the pressure from 0.1MPa to 35.1MPa. The experiment has been performed to compare the data from the bare and the coated wires, and the results are satisfactory.

  • An embedded sensor is significantly influenced by its spatial environment, such as barriers or distance, through low power and signal strength. Due to these causes, noise data frequently occur in an embedded sensor. Because the information acquired from the embedded sensor exists in a time series, it is hard to detect an error which continuously takes place in the time series information on a realtime basis. In this paper, we proposes an error detection method based on time-series prediction that detects error signals of embedded sensors in real time in consideration of the physical characteristics of embedded devices. The error detection method based on time-series prediction proposed in this paper determines errors in generated embedded device signals using a stable distance function. When detecting errors by monitoring signals from an embedded device, the stable distance function can detect error signals effectively by applying error weight to the latest signals. When detecting errors by monitoring signals from an embedded device, the stable distance function can detect error signals effectively by applying error weight to the latest signals.

  • In this paper, we present a design of a hash processor for data security systems. Two standard hash algorithms, Sha-1(American) and HAS-1600(Korean), are implemented on a single hash engine to support real time processing of the algorithms. The hash processor can also be used as a PRNG(Pseudo-random number generator) by utilizing SHA-1 hash iterations, which is being used in the Intel software library. Because both SHA-1 and HAS-160 have the same step operation, we could reduce hardware complexity by sharing the computation unit. Due to precomputation of message variables and two-stage pipelined structure, the critical path of the processor was shortened and overall performance was increased. We estimate performance of the hash processor about 624 Mbps for SHA-1 and HAS-160, and 195 Mbps for pseudo-random number generation, both at 100 MHz clock, based on Samsung 0.5um CMOS standard cell library. To our knowledge, this gives the best performance for processing the hash algorithms.

  • Recently with the explosive growth of Internet applications, the attacks of hackers on network are increasing rapidly and becoming more seriously. Thus information security is emerging as a critical factor in designing a network system and much attention is paid to Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS), which detects hackers' attacks on network and handles them properly However, the performance of current intrusion detection system cannot catch the increasing rate of the Internet speed because most of the NIDSs are implemented by software. In this paper, we propose a new high performance network intrusion using Network Processor. To achieve fast packet processing and dynamic adaptation of intrusion patterns that are continuously added, a new high performance network intrusion detection system using Intel's network processor, IXP1200, is proposed. Unlike traditional intrusion detection engines, which have been implemented by either software or hardware so far, we design an optimized architecture and algorithms, exploiting the features of network processor. In addition, for more efficient detection engine scheduling, we proposed task allocation methods on multi-processing processors. Through implementation and performance evaluation, we show the proprieties of the proposed approach.

  • A finger-gesture game controller using the single camera is implemented in this paper, which is based on the recognition of the number of fingers and the index finger moving direction. Proposed method uses the CAMShift algorithm to trace the end-point of index finger effectively. The number of finger is recognized by using a double circle tracing method. Then, HSI color mode transformation is performed for the CAMShift algorithm, and YCbCr color model is used in the double circle tracing method. Also, all processing tasks are implemented by using the Intel OpenCV library and C++ language. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we developed a shooting game simulator and validated the proposed method. The proposed method showed the average recognition ratio of more than 90% for each of the game command-mode.
