In this paper, the real-time optical associative memory using multiple hologram which is generated with two angular multiplexed reference beams and Fourier transformed object beam in the $BaTiO_{3}$ crystal based on DFWM mechanism. When one image is recorded in the $BaTiO_{3}$ crystal, complete image can be recalled by 9 % partial input of the stored original image without any additional thresholding and optical feedback process. As an experimental result of multiple Fourier hologram which is recorded with two binary images, OHCHAS and PARKHK, we can obtain complete image recalled by 1/6 partial input of the stored image.

The practical design and construction of a Stewart Platform-based unilateral universal hand-controller is presented. It is also presented that such a design concept could be implemented by developing a technical method of determining the forward kinematics of a Stewart Platform in real time. In this work, the forward kinematics of a Stewart Platform has been determined in real time using three additional displacement sensors which eliminate the computational burden of solving the forward kinematics described in nonlinear simultaneous equations. The workspace of the Stewart Platform via inverse kinematics has been analyzed numerically and used as a design guide for the determination of the mechanism dimensions such as the sizes of the upper and base platforms and the minimum and maximum lengths of the legs. The hardware of the hand-controller has been constructed and tested to demonstrate the feasibility of the design concept.

The software running on avionic system is required to be highly reliable and productive. The air transport industry has developed ARINC Specification 653(ARINC653) as a standardized software requirement of avionics computers. The document specifies the interface boundary between avionics application software and the core executive software. Dependability in ARINC 653 is provided by spatial and temporal partitioning whilst fault-tolerance is provided by health monitoring mechanism. Legacy real-time operating systems are used to support ARINC653 health monitor on integrated modular avionics(IMA). However, legacy real-time operating systems are costly and difficult to modify the kernel. In this paper, we suggest a Linux-based ARINC653 health monitor. Functionalities to support ARINC653 health monitor are implemented as a Linux kernel module and its performance is evaluated.

This study is underway to develop a prediction model for formwork pressure exerted by self-compacting concrete(SCC). Three major mechanisms related to formwork evolution over time were found, and mathematical modelling of each mechanism was made. A calculation method for real formwork pressure by using the mathematical formulae was also established. To verify predictive capability of the prediction model, a parametric study on parameters used in the model was performed. It was confirmed that the proposed model include the essential parameters that can simulate the real formwork pressure evolution over time.

The problem of pricing for a telecommunication network is investigated with respect to the users' sensitivity to the pricing structure. A functional optimization problem is formulated, in order to compute price reallocations as functions of data collected in real time during the network evolution. No a-priori knowledge about the users' utility functions and the traffic demands is required, since adaptive reactions to the network conditions are sought in real time. To this aim, a neural approximation technique is studied to exploit an optimal pricing control law, able to counteract traffic changes with a small on-line computational effort. Owing to the generality of the mathematical framework under investigation, our control methodology can be generalized for other decision variables and cost functionals.

Low power consuming and highly responsive semiconductor-type microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) gas sensors are fabricated for real-time environmental monitoring applications. This subsystem is developed using a gas sensor module, a Bluetooth module, and a personal digital assistant (PDA) phone. The gas sensor module consists of a $NO_2$ or CO gas sensor and signal processing chips. The MEMS gas sensor is composed of a microheater, a sensing electrode, and sensing material. Metal oxide nanopowder is drop-coated onto a substrate using a microheater and integrated into the gas sensor module. The change in resistance of the metal oxide nanopowder from exposure to oxidizing or deoxidizing gases is utilized as the principle mechanism of this gas sensor operation. The variation detected in the gas sensor module is transferred to the PDA phone by way of the Bluetooth module.

As a promising and novel manufacturing technology, laser aided direct metal deposition (DMD) process produces near-net-shape functional metal parts directly from 3-D CAD models by repeating laser cladding layer by layer. The key of the build-up mechanism is the effective control of powder delivery and laser power to be irradiated into the melt-pool. A feedback control system using two sets of optical height sensors is designed for monitoring the melt-pool and real-time control of deposition dimension. With the feedback height control system, the dimensions of part can be controlled within designed tolerance maintaining real time control of each layer thickness. Clad nugget shapes reveal that the feedback control can affect the nugget size and morphology of microstructure. The pore/void level can be controlled by utilizing pulsed-mode laser and proper design of deposition tool-path. With the present configuration of the control system, it is believed that more innovation of the DMD process is possible to the deposition of layers in 3-D slice.

This paper proposes a MAC protocol for real-time VBR (rt-VBR) services in wireless ATM networks. The proposed protocol is characterized by a contention-based mechanism of the reservation request, a contention-free polling scheme for transferring the dynamic parameters, and a priority scheme of the slot allocation. The design objective of the proposed protocol is to guarantee the real-time constraint of rt-VBR traffic. The scheduling algorithm uses a priority scheme based on the maximum cell transfer delay parameter. The wireless terminal establishes an rt-VBR connection to the base station with a contention-based scheme. The base station scheduler allocates a dynamic parameter minislot to the wireless terminal for transferring the residual lifetime and the number of requesting slots as the dynamic parameters. Based on the received dynamic parameters, the scheduler allocates the uplink slots to the wireless terminal with the most stringent delay requirement. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol can guarantee the delay constraint of rt-VBR services along with its cell loss rate significantly reduced.

When a multicast video conference system utilizes RTP (Real Time Protocol) and RTCP (Real Time Control Protocol), the loss rate and the synchronization of transfer in RTCP affect the scalability of the system. The random delay technique introduced to resolve the problems is so simple that leads the network to meet some congestion in synchronizing feedback information when lots of people transfer the feedback information simultaneously, which reduces the scalability of system. In this paper, we propose a new feedback control algorithm that provides priority levels with the RTCP packet, which cuts down the feedback delay and increases the scalability. The criteria of providing priority Based on the decided priority level, Agent forced the session participants to provide much more RTCP packets, positively controlled, and the possible bandwidth can be measured. The simulation on this technique decreases the delay, and the feedback messages are equally distributed on a given time period.

Vibration control using a tuned mass damper (TMD) is an effective technique that has been verified using analytical methods and experiments. It has been applied in mechanical, automotive, and structural applications. However, the damping of a TMD cannot be adjusted in real time. An excessive mass damper stroke may be introduced when the mass damper is subjected to a seismic excitation whose frequency content is within its operation range. The semi-active tuned mass damper (SATMD) has been proposed to solve this problem. The parameters of an SATMD can be adjusted in real time based on the measured structural responses and an appropriate control law. In this study, a stiffness-controllable TMD, called a leverage-type stiffness-controllable mass damper (LSCMD), is proposed and fabricated to verify its feasibility. The LSCMD contains a simple leverage mechanism and its stiffness can be altered by adjusting the pivot position. To determine the pivot position of the LSCMD in real time, a discrete-time direct output-feedback active control law that considers delay time is implemented. Moreover, an identification test for the transfer function of the pivot driving and control systems is proposed. The identification results demonstrate the target displacement can be achieved by the pivot displacement in 0-2 Hz range and the control delay time is about 0.1 s. A shaking-table test has been conducted to verify the theory and feasibility of the LSCMD. The comparisons of experimental and theoretical results of the LSCMD system show good consistency. It is shown that dynamic behavior of the LSCMD can be simulated correctly by the theoretical model and that the stiffness can be properly adjusted by the pivot position. Comparisons of experimental results of the LSCMD and passive TMD show the LSCMD with less demand on the mass damper stroke than that for the passive TMD.
