With rapid development of graphic hardware, researches on Virtual Reality and 3D Games have received more attention than before. For more realistic 3D graphic scene, objects were to be presented with lots of polygons and the number of objects shown in a scene was remarkably increased. Therefore, for effective visualization of large polygon models like this, view-frustum culling method, that visualizes only objects shown in the screen, has been widely used. In general, the bounding boxes that include objects are generated firstly, and the boxes are intersected with view-frustum to check whether object is in the visible area or not. Recently, an algorithm that can check in-out test of objects using OpenGL's selection mode, which is originally used to select the objects in the screen, is suggested. This algorithm is fast because it can use hardware acceleration. In this study, by implementing and applying this algorithm to large polygon models, we showed the efficiency of OpenGL assisted View-Frustum Culling algorithm. If this algorithm is applied to 3D games that have to process more complicated characters and landscapes, performance improvement can be expected.

The voltage-source inverters (VSI) supplying a motor drive are prone to open transistor faults. To address this issue in fault-tolerant drives applicable to electric vehicles, a new open transistor fault diagnosis (FD) method is presented in this paper. According to the proposed method, in order to define the FD index, the phase angle of the converter output current is estimated by a simple trigonometric function. The proposed FD method is adaptable, simple, capable of detecting multiple open switch faults and robust to load operational variations. Keeping the FD in mind as a mandatory part of the fault tolerant control algorithm, the FD block is applied to a five-phase converter supplying a multiphase fault-tolerant PM motor drive with non-sinusoidal unbalanced current waveforms. To investigate the performance of the FD technique, the fault-tolerant sliding mode control (SMC) of a five-phase brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is developed in this paper with the embedded FD block. Once the theory is explained, experimental waveforms are obtained from a five-phase BLDC motor to show the effectiveness of the proposed FD method. The FD algorithm is implemented on a field programmable gate array (FPGA).

Based on its simplicity and user-friendly characteristics, OpenMP has become the standard model for programming on shared-memory architectures. Checkpointing-aided parallel execution (CAPE) is an approach that utilizes the discontinuous incremental checkpointing technique (DICKPT) to translate and execute OpenMP programs on distributed-memory architectures automatically. Currently, CAPE implements the OpenMP execution model by utilizing the DICKPT to distribute parallel jobs and their data to slave machines, and then collects the results after executing these distributed jobs. Although this model has been proven to be effective in terms of performance and compatibility with OpenMP on distributed-memory systems, it cannot fully exploit the capabilities of multicore processors. This paper presents a novel execution model for CAPE that utilizes two levels of parallelism. In the proposed model, we add another level of parallelism in the form of multithreaded processes on slave machines with the goal of better exploiting their multicore CPUs. Initial experimental results presented near the end of this paper demonstrate that this model provides significantly enhanced CAPE performance.

Objective : The goal of this study is to present whether endoscopic release(ER) is superior to open release(OR) for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome(CTS). Method and Material : Fifty-nine wrists in 43 patients who had clnical signs and symptoms consistent with CTS, not responded to non-operative management, were entered into the study. Authors retrospectively compared 27 wrists treated with ER(February 1999-June 1999) with 32 wrists treated with OR(October 1997-March 1999). We performed conventional open surgery in 25 patients(mean age ; 46 years) and Brown's two-portal technique in 18 patients(mean age ; 53 years) under intravenous regional block or general anesthesia. Results : Sixteen patients had CTS on both hands and left hands were affected more frequently than right hand, 34 and 25 respectively. Successful and poor results of ER were similar to those of OR. For patients in OR group, mean duration of symptoms was 5 years(range 1 month-30 years), and postoperative outcome was good in 27(84.4%) of wrists and poor in 5(15.6%). For patients in ER group, mean duration of symptoms was 7 months (range 2 months-25 years), outcome was good in 23(85.2%) of wrists and poor in 4(14.8%). The average time for complete relief of pain was 1.3 weeks and 7.6 weeks, respectively for OR and ER groups. No complication was noted in either group. Conclusion : This preliminary analysis suggests that faster relief of pain was achieved when the endoscopic method was used, although there were no significant differences in their efficacies regarding the improvement of symptoms.

This paper presents a high-performance software-hardware dehazing system based on a dedicated hardware accelerator for the haze removal. In the proposed system, the dedicated hardware accelerator performs the dark-channel-prior-based dehazing process, and the software performs the other control processes. For this purpose, the dehazing process is realized as an OpenCL kernel by finding the inherent parallelism in the algorithm and is synthesized into a hardware by employing a high-level-synthesis technique. The proposed system executes the dehazing process much faster than the previous software-only dehazing system: the performance improvement is up to 96.3% in terms of the execution time.

This paper presents an automatic system to detect variety of faults from fine pitch COF(chip-on-film) which is less than $30{\mu}m$. Developed system contains circuits and technique to detect fast various faults such as hard open, hard short, soft open and soft short from fine pattern. Basic principle for fault detection is to monitor fine differential voltage from pattern resistance differences between fault-free and faulty cases. The technique uses also radio frequency resonator arrays for easy detection to amplify fine differential voltage. We anticipate that proposed system is to be an alternative for conventional COF test systems since it can fast and accurately detect variety of faults from fine pattern COF test process.

The relationship between education and work is of the greatest concern to individuals and society because they are the key drivers of growth and development. In the context of Industry 4.0, labor and educators are facing the challenges of big changes in the workplace. How to prepare undergraduate students for the world of employment has become the most important mission of higher education providers. This paper explored the competency gap in the labor market in Vietnam from the perspective of employees who have been dissatisfied with the current status. First, a qualitative method with the Delphi technique was applied to confirm this consensus in an employees' competency model. Then, the satisfaction level for each competency criterion was explored by applying the advance quantitative method, namely, best non-fuzzy performance approach. Lifelong learning was ranked first, followed by creativity and innovation, foreign languages, expertise and digitalization, adaptability, and finally, organizing and managing ability. Critical thinking and problem-solving were perceived to have the biggest gap. The order of competency satisfaction is useful in explaining the mismatch between education quality and labor market demand. The findings provide valuable guidelines for education managers who seek to bridge the competency gap and improve education quality.
