  • In this paper the real life operation of ULCS (Ultra Large Container Ships) is presented from the point of view of shipmasters. The paper provides interpretation of results of questionnaire filled by masters of large container ships during Tools for Ultra Large Container Ships (TULC) EUI FP7 project. This is done in a way that results of questionnaire are further reviewed and commented by experienced master of ULCS. Following phenomena are subject of questionnaire and further discussed in the paper: parametric rolling, slamming, whipping, springing, green water and rogue waves. Special attention is given to the definition of rough sea states as well as to measures that ship masters take to avoid them as well as to the manoeuvring in heavy seas. The role of the wave forecast and weather routing software is also discussed.

  • In real-time embedded systems, the responsibility is the most important thing because it is related to human life. Context switching is a part of which can slow down the responsibility. We therefore should minimize the amount of state that needs to be saved during context switching. In this paper, we introduce a new architecture (Register Farm) for context switching which can exchange two contexts in one cycle time. Although it might increase the cost of MCU design and the complexity of circuit, it cannot miss any interrupt during context switching. Consequently, Register Farm architecture can make embedded systems spread out in human life because it can increase reliability and responsibility in real time embedded systems.

  • Mathematical modeling has been observed in the way of a possibility to contribute in improving students' problem solving abilities. One of the important views of real life problem context could be described such as a useful ways to interpret the real life leading to children's abstraction process. The problem contexts for the grade 6 with mathematical modeling perspectives were developed by reviewing the current 7th National Mathematics Curriculum of Korea. Those include the 5 content areas such as number & operation, geometry, measurement, probability & statistics, and pattern & problem solving. One of problem contexts, "Space", specially designed for pattern & problem solving area, was applied to the grade 6 students and analyzed in detail to understand student's mathematical modeling progress.

  • Today, our city structure is being complicated from the development of industry. Invisible losses, life and fortune loss caused by arson is embossed in our society. The preparation of counter plan about increasing factors of fire damage is not easy. With respect to mankind life, however, it is very important. Therefore, the focus of this research examine refuge degree in each smoke density level when a fire break out in the space. I evaluated auditory guide facility thorough real scale test. In this thesis, I will propose the efficient refuge deriving facilities.

  • This paper introduces a LED CUBE tool interacting with a distance sensor to solve real life problems in the physical computing field. Students can experience interactive education and intuitively understand the cubic operations with 3-dimensional animations obtained from a $3{\times}3{\times}3$ LED CUBE and a distance sensor connecting to Arduino. If the proposed LED CUBE is applied in physical computing section of the Information curriculum of middle school, students are expected to improve their computational thinking ability to solve problems in real life and other areas creatively and efficiently.

  • Since it is common to have touch-screen devices, it is less challenging to draw sketches anywhere and save them in vector form. Current research on sketches considers coordinate sequence data and adopts sequential models for learning sketch representation in sketch understanding. In the sketch dataset, it has become customary that the dataset is in vector coordinate format. Moreover, the popular dataset does not consider real-life sketches, sketches from pencil, pen, and paper. Art psychology uses real-life sketches to analyze patients. ETRI presents a unique sketch dataset for sketch recognition of autism spectrum disorder in pixel format. We present a method to formulate the dataset for better generalization of sketch data. Through experiments, we show that pixel-based models can produce a good performance.

  • This research was intended to delve into the diversity of life phenomenon and its characteristics. First of all, this research gave real examples to compare the differences in men's health, disease, and longevity in order to confirm the existence of diversity of life phenomenon. In addition, it also studied the process and mechanism of manifestation of life phenomenon, as well as the influence and problems of existing studies' results and implications. The results are as follow. 1. Differences in health, diseases, and longevity were very big and diverse in researches on different races, nations, ages, socioeconomic status, positions, and even (monozygotic) twins. 2. The basic foundation of all organisms is DNA, and environmental factors change DNA methylation and the structure of chromatin by constantly influencing DNA. Due to this, the manifestation, control, and phenotype of DNA change, resulting in diversified life phenomenon. Therefore, it is the environmental factors, not DNA, that has more influence on the diversity of life. 3. Looking at available studies, the most reasonable perspective on human requires focusing on the diversity of life phenomenon, holistic thinking, and reversible change instead of irreversible determinism. Considerable differences in life phenomenon between entities require a change in malformed perspective on life. Public health and medicine deals with live human beings, a more precise and accurate perspective on life is very important. Because management methods of health and disease, such as structure and approaches of medical research, prevention and cure, must be different by life perspectives.

  • Full scale durability test in the laboratory is an essential of any fatigue life evaluation of components or structures of the automotive vehicle. Component testing is particularly important in today's highly competitive industries where the design to reduce weight and production costs must be balanced with the necessity to avoid expensive service failure. Generally, Hydraulic road simulator is used to carry out the fatigue test and the vibration test. In this paper, the algorithm and software to realize the real road profile are developed. The operation software for simultaneously controlled multi-axial simulator is developed and the input and output data are displayed window based PC controller in real time. The software to generate the real road profile are developed. This paper developed a road profile reappearance software and simultaneously apply 3-axial actuator to white noise, so we verified the propriety of reappearance software through accomplishes an real test.

  • With the increasing number of vehicles in use in our daily life and the rise of traffic congestion problems, many methods and models have been developed for real time optimisation of traffic lights. Nevertheless, most methods which consider real time physical queue sizes of vehicles waiting for green lights overestimate the optimal cycle length for such real traffic control. This paper deals with the development of a generic hybrid model describing both physical traffic flows and control of signalised intersections. The firing times assigned to the transitions of the control part are considered dynamic and are calculated by a simplified optimisation method. This method is based on splitting green times proportionally to the predicted queue sizes through input links for each new cycle time. The proposed model can be easily translated into a control code for implementation in a real time control system.
