Driving is a complex psychomotor task often interrupted by secondary activities that increase cognitive workload and divert attention away from the roadway. The risk of inattentive driving is known to vary with age. To assess the characteristics of advancing age on driver's cognitive workload under dual task condition, we evaluate the performance of 96 drivers divided into three age groups: 20's, 40's, and 60's. This study considers driver's cognitive workload in the context of urban and highway driving. Error rate & Dual task cost are used to measure driver's cognitive workload. Results indicate that age impacts cognitive workload during dual task driving conditions.

One of the components that constitute the simulation models is the state variables whose values are determined by the time related simulation process. Embedding rule-based expert systems into the simulation models should provide a systematic way of handling these time-dependent variables without distracting the essential problem solving capabilities of the expert systems which are well suited for expressing the decision making function of complex cases. The expert system, however, is inefficient in dealing with the time elapsing characteristics of target system compare to the simulation models. To solve the problem, this paper provides an interruptible inference engine whose inferencing process can be interrupted when the variables' value, which are used as the parameters of the rules, are not yet determined due to the time dependent nature of the state variables. The process is resumed when the variables are ready. The elapse of time is calculated by time-advance function of the simulation model to which the expert system has been embedded. The example modeling shown exploits the embedded interruptible inferencing capability for the controlling and monitoring of metal grating process.

When repolarization of neuronal action potential does not decline monotonically but interrupted by additional depolarization, this prolonged depolarization phase is referred to afterdepolarization(ADP). ADP is considered to playa crucial role in the modulation of neuronal excitability, since it contributes to burst firing. We studied the ionic mechanisms underlying ADP in the soma of dentate granule cells, using rat hippocampal slice (300${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in thickness) prepared from 3- to 3-week-old SD rats.(omitted)

광대역 종합정보 통신망의 핵심요소라 할 수 있는 ATM 스위치의 성능척도 중 가장 중요하게 다루어지고 있는 것은 셀 손실확률과 셀 전달지연시간이다. 이 중에서도 샐 손실확률기 추정에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는데, ATM 스위치는 손실에 민감한 트래픽까지도 제대로 다루기 위하여 정도까지의 샐 손실확률을 보장할 수 있어야 한다. 이와같은 희소사건(rare event)의 확률 추정에 있어 원하는 정도의 precision을 가능한한 적은비용으로 얻어내기 위한 분산축소기법은 필수적이라 할 수 있다. Homogeneous 입력원을 갖는 ATM 스위치의 셀 손실확률 추정에 관련된 이전의 연구결과는 시뮬레이션과 분석적기법을 혼합시켜 얻어지는 새로운 개념의 추정치, 즉 hybrid 시뮬레이션 추정치의 도입을 통하여 상당한 정도의 분산축소 효과를 거둘 수 있음을 나타내주고 있다. 본 연구는 이에 대한 확장으로, 각각의 도착 프로세스가 서로 다른heterogeneous 입력원을 갖는 ATM 스위치의 셀 손실화률 추정에 적용될 수 있는 hybrid 시뮬레이션 기법을 개발하고자 한다. 사용된 모델은 이산시간대기모델()로 각입력원의 도착 프로세스는 Interrupted Bernoulli Process로 가정하였으며, 분석적 기법의 적용을 위한 입력원 통합(aggregation) 알고리듬과 실제 시뮬레이션 방법 등을 제시하였다. 또한 제시된 기법의 성능은 기존의 일반적인 시뮬레이션 추정치를 이용하여 얻어진 결과와의 비교를 통하여 분석되었다.

TDM-PON에서는 ONU 중 한 개가 고장을 일으켜 신호를 계속 전송한다면 PON 전체의 통신이 불가능하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이런 환경에서 고장 위치를 찾아내는 방식을 제안하였다. 고장 ONU가 계속하여 신호를 전송하면 TDM 신호전송이 불가능하게 되므로 본 연구에서는 잡음에 강한 CDMA 전송을 이용하여 정상동작 ONU와 고장 ONU를 분리하는 방법을 제안하고, 이를 위한 알고리즘을 검증하였다.

Most forecasting models often fail to produce appropriate forecasts because we build a model based on the assumption of the data being generated from the only one stochastic process. However, in many real problems, the time series data are generated from one stochastic process for a while and then abruptly undergo certain structural changes. In this paper, we assume the basic underlying process is the simple state-space model with random level and deterministic drift but interrupted by three types of exogenous shocks: level shift, drift change, outlier. A Bayesian procedure to detect, estimate and adapt to the structural changes is developed and compared with simple, double and adaptive exponential smoothing using simulated data and the U.S. leading composite index.

We proposed a new experimental method which is required to easily observe the growth behavior of fatigue cracks. In the proposed method, the image data of cracks were stored into the computer while the cyclic loading was interrupted. After testing, crack length was determined using an image processing software which was developed by authors. By comparing the data measured by the image processing system with those by the manual measurement with a microscope, the effectiveness of the image processing system was established. If the proposed method is used to monitor and observe the crack growth behavior automatically, the time and efforts for fatigue test could be dramatically reduced.

The arcing contact wear of circuit breakers can be the major cause for the maintenance requirement. The control of arcing times as short as possible but larger than the given minimum arcing time may be the effective way to mitigate the contact wear and to lessen the expenditure of a maintenance. In this paper the method for minimizing the arcing time is described. The basic concept used in the proposed method is the estimation of the current interruption instant from the informations such as the phase angle at the instant of trip commands and the magnitude of interrupted currents.

Charge-pump high voltage inverter for Plasma backlight with CIM(Current Injection Method) is proposed in this paper. Adoption of ERC is a new attempt in high voltage inverter so that it is not only energy recovery but also improvement of discharge stability and system unstability which is interrupted by noise. Using a charge-pump technique enables low voltage switches to be usable, the cost can be reduce. CIM is adopted to achieve high speed energy recovery in proposed circuit. Operations of the proposed circuit are analyzed for each mode. The proposed circuit is verified to be applicable on a 32 inch plasma backlight panel by experimental results.

In Korea, although the damage from disaster (flood and storm) is increasing, the early stage warning and countermeasure are not in operation rapidly. The research areas of transportation engineering arenot diverse, so once the road is flooded and interrupted, drivers, the system operators and managers are in panic, and nearby roads are in terrible traffic congestion. In case of Korea, the research of evacuation is highly needed, because it is very necessary and easy to apply in real field. In this paper, we establish the concept of transportation disaster prevention system and suggest the directions of it. In addition, based on this research, we choose one example of disasters and establish an example of the transportation disaster prevention system. Our goal is to make steps; prevention, preparation, countermeasure and restoration in the view of minimizing on social chaos and damages emphasizing aspect of transportation countermeasure. This research will be the good precedent of approach, analysis and countermeasure when the disasters are occurred, and a basis of transportation disaster prevention system and manual in Korea.
