In this paper, we construct the infrastructure for the teleoperating system of mobile robots. For the stable teleoperating system, we develope an algorithm that measure communication time delay on real-time. We propose the force-reflected teleoperation method that control the stiffness of joystick according to VFH(Vector Field Histogram). Also, an obstacle avoidance method using VFH is presented for the mobile robot to move to the indicated direction without collision. Experiments are conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed methods.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of irrational beliefs on teacher burnout. Four-hundred twenty-two school teachers participated in this study. Maslach Burnout Inventory and Irrational Belief Test were used to collect data. Collected data were analyzed using stepwise multiple regression. Irrational beliefs significantly predicted teacher burnout. High self-expectation, helplessness, problem avoidance, anxious over-concern and frustration reactivity were significant predictors of teacher burnout. Influence of irrational beliefs on teacher burnout differed according to stages of teacher development and school grade of teacher. The implications of this study on education and counseling for teacher were discussed. Finally future research questions were recommended with the limitations of this study.

There come various types of robot with researches for mobile robot. This paper introduces the multi-joint snake robot having 16 degree of freedom and composing of eight-axis. The biological snake robot uses the forward movement friction and the proposed artificial snake robot uses the un-powered wheel instead of the body of snake. To determine the enable joint angle of each joint, the controller inputs are considered such as color and distance using PC Camera and ultra-sonic sensor module, respectively. The movement method of snake robot is sequential moving from head to tail through body. The target for movement direction is decided by a certain article be displayed in the PC Camera. In moving toward that target, if there is any obstacle then the snake robot can avoid by itself. In this paper, we show the method of snake robot for tracing the target with experiment.

We consider cooperative opportunistic beamforming that can mitigate the other cell interference (OCI) in correlated multi-user multiple-input single-output (MISO) cellular environments. By only exploiting the spatial channel information of adjacent cells, the proposed scheme generates the cooperative random beam that statistically avoids the OCI from adjacent cells. Each cell selects a user in an opportunistic manner. Thus, the proposed scheme can simultaneously achieve the multi-user diversity (MUD) gain and the OCI avoidance gain.

본 논문에서는 다수의 AGV를 운용하는 물류자동화창고에서 최단경로가 배정된 AGV의 주행도중 발생하는 충돌 및 교착 상태를 예측하고 이를 회피하는 알고리즘을 개발하고자 한다. 충돌 및 교착 상태는 최단 경로와 경로 점유시간을 비교함으로써 예측하고 이를 경로 선입에 따른 우선권 및 지연시간에 따른 우선권에 따라 회피할 AGV를 선정함으로써 충돌 회피에 따른 AGV의 총 운행시간을 최소화한다.

For developing 5-axis laser cutting systems, many problems such as rotating of laser head or table, 5-axis tool path generation and collision avoidance between laser head and product should be solved. In this paper, a five-axis laser cutting machine with table swivel and rotary type configuration is developed. The five axes (X,Y,Z,A,B) are controlled and interfaced to PC via MMC board. Two kinds of CAM S/W such as commercial 5-axis CAM S/W(Euclid) and UG-API are engaged to generate NC code for the developed 5-axis laser cutting machine.

The IEEE 802.15.4 standard not only provides a maximum of seven guaranteed time slots (GTSs) for allocation within a superframe to support time-critical traffic, but also achieves ultralow complexity, cost, and power in low-rate and short-distance wireless personal area networks (WPANs). Real-time wireless body area sensor networks (WBASNs), as a special purpose WPAN, can perfectly use the IEEE 802. 15. 4 standard for its wireless connection. In this paper, we propose an adaptive GTS allocation scheme for real-time WBASN data transmissions with different priorities in consideration of low latency, fairness, and bandwidth utilization. The proposed GTS allocation scheme combines a weight-based priority assignment algorithm with an innovative starvation avoidance scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms the existing GTS implementation for the traditional IEEE 802.15.4 in terms of average delay, contention free period bandwidth utilization, and fairness.

Food allergy is an important public health problem affecting 5% of infants and children in Korea. Food allergy is defined as an immune response triggered by food proteins. Food allergy is highly associated with atopic dermatitis and is one of the most common triggers of potentially fatal anaphylaxis in the community. Sensitization to food allergens can occur in the gastrointestinal tract (class 1 food allergy) or as a consequence of cross reactivity to structurally homologous inhalant allergens (class 2 food allergy). Allergenicity of food is largely determined by structural aspects, including cross-reactivity and reduced or enhanced allergenicity with cooking that convey allergenic characteristics to food. Management of food allergy currently focuses on dietary avoidance of the offending foods, prompt recognition and treatment of allergic reactions, and nutritional support. This review includes definitions and examines the prevalence and management of food allergies and the characteristics of food allergens.

The objective of this paper is, based upon the principles of artificial life, to induce emergent behaviors of multiple autonomous mobile robots which form from simple local rules to complex global intelligence. Here, we propose an architecture of neural network learing with reinforcement signals which perceives the neighborhood information and decides the direction and the velocity of movement as mobile robots navigates in a group. As results of the simulations, the optimum weights are obtained in real time, which not only prevent from the collisions between agents and obstacles in the dynamic environment, but also have the mobile robots move and keep in various patterns.

IEEE 802.15.4 low-rate Wireless Personal Area Networks(WPAN) are expected to provide ubiquitous networking between small personal/home devices and sensors with low power consumption and low cost features. The technology employs special CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/collision Avoidance) to save power consumption for small or portable WPAN-enabled devices. In this paper, we simulation the slotted CSMA/CA of IEEE 802.15.4 MAC and evaluate its performance limit in order to grasp the characteristics of Medium Access Control (MAC) of IEEE 802.15.4 WPAN.
