  • TPSN(Timing-sync Protocol for Sensor Networks), the representative of time synchronization protocol, has been already developed to provide time synchronization among nodes in wireless sensor networks. Even though the TPSN's method has been referenced by so many other time synchronization schemes for resource-constrained networks like wireless sensor networks or low power personal area networks, it has some inefficiency in terms of power consumption and network-wide synchronization time (or called convergence time). The main reason is that each node in TPSN needs waiting delay to solve the collision problem due to simultaneous transmission among competing nodes, which causes more power consumption and longer network convergence time for a network-wide synchronization. In this paper an improved scheme is proposed by changing message exchange method among nodes. The proposed scheme not only shortens network-wide synchronization time, but also reduce collision traffic which lead to needless power consumption. The proposed scheme's performance has been evaluated and compared with an original scheme by simulation. The results are shown to be better than the original algorithm used in TPSN.

  • This paper analyzes the host cache effectiveness in full virtualization, particularly associated with journaling of guests. We observe that the journal access of guests degrades cache performance significantly due to the write-once access pattern and the frequent sync operations. To remedy this problem, we design and implement a novel caching policy, called PDC (Pollution Defensive Caching), that detects the journal accesses and prevents them from entering the host cache. The proposed PDC is implemented in QEMU-KVM 2.1 on Linux 4.14 and provides 3-32% performance improvement for various file and I/O benchmarks.

  • If you ask many Stereographers how to make a good S3D and you will get all different answers. There are several 3D knowledges and opinions that were not always in agreement. we have to choose which advice to follow and find our own way. But there will be no durable screening of S3D films without a minimal viewing comfort of all the audience whatever the differences of their vision. First of all, We always consider several factors to get an appropriate S3D shot before moving on to production. This is intended to provide a practical example on S3D film production. I hope that this article will encourage further research on this topic.

  • This paper presents the design and implementation of a receiver operating between a rotary machine encoder and DSP. The receiver connects with the encoder using 1 bit serial data and DSP using 16 bits bus line. The receiver and encoder use the different operating frequency each other. We suggest a new apparatus and method of synchronized code for header detection in 1bit serial communication. The system operating frequency can be changed into 20MHz or 60MHz by using the external port such as 'clk_select'.

  • The application for PDA as a new wireless Internet device is variously developed to improve the function of PDA, and the application software must be installed to PDAs. In addition. when the power supply of PDA becomes fully discharged, all data stored in the RAM (Random Access Memory) could be vanished, and then the application programs should be reinstalled. This paper presents an automatic installation system of application program, PAIS (PDA Automatic Installation System). It is designed to solve the problem of PDA that PDA's users have to install the application programs on their PDA themselves. When this engine is applied, PDA users can save the time and effort for installation. It's convenient for the PDA users. The PDA and application software company can save the cost to create materials to explain the installation process.

  • In this paper, we propose a media processor to provide interactive services in mobile multimedia broadcasting environments. The proposed system Is designed to support various functionalities, such as generation of MPEG-4 IOD (Initial Object Descriptor)/OD(Object Descriptor)/BIFS (Binary Format for Scene) data, encapsulation of MPEG-4 AVC (Advanced Video Coding)/BSAC (Bit Sliced Arithmetic Coding) stream and generated IOD/OD/BIFS data into SL (Sync Layer) packet, packetization of SL packet into TS (Transport Stream) packet and multiplexing. The proposed media processor can provide MPEG-4 based interactive services for users.

  • Ghost cancelers need to accurately estimate the distortions suffered by transmitted signals on their way to receivers by capturing ghost canceling reference signals in the vertical blanking interval. As ghosts become much severer, sync separation tends to malfunction, making it impossible to acquire measurement data for channel estimation. This paper presents a robust method of acquiring ghost data using their correlation properties, and evaluates its performance through computer simulation. The reference signals are inserted in such a manner that the polarity alternates from one frame to another to remove color bursts and sync signals, and to increase the signal-to-noise ratio as well. As a result, however, they are prone to timing jitters. So a simple yet effective method is proposed that can correct for even fractional time delays. The timing errors are found to be less than about 4% of the sample spacing.

  • We developed the interface system between D-SCAN TV system and the Teletext system to reduce the effect of interline flick. At first, horizontal and vertical signal is separated from the composite signal. The stable vertical sync and horizontal sync is applied to the conventional Teletext system and the its output has R.G.B signal form and the output of the Teletext system. This signal is converted into composite signal and is switched at the video selector system in TV to process the signal by progressive method.

  • S-MAC은 전송 지연을 희생하고 전체 센서 노드의 동작 수영을 연장하기 위한 무선 센서 네트워크에 특화된 MAC(Medium Access Control) 프로토콜이다. IEEE 802.11을 수정하여 만들어진 S-MAC은 주기적인 Listen and Sleep 스케줄방식을 사용하여 무선 센서 네트워크에서 발생하는 에너지 소모를 줄였다. S-MAC을 사용하는 무선 센서 네트워크에서 초기에 수행하는 것이 자신의 동작 주기를 결정하고 알리는 것이다. 이 과정에서 무작위(randomization)로 선택된 시간을 사용하여 스케줄한 결과 다원화된 스케줄이 발생된다. 결국 서로 다른 스케줄 클러스터가 만들어지고 이 클러스터 경계에 있는 노드는 어긋난 Listen시간으로 인해 서로 통신을 하지 못한다. S-MAC 에서는 서로 다른 스케줄을 수용하는 경계 노드(border node)를 두어 해결하고 있다. 하지만, 경계 노드는 다른 노드에 비해 에너지 소모가 높고 브로드캐스트 형식의 데이터 전송 효율이 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 S-MAC의 다원화된 스케줄 방식의 문제점을 해결하는 H-SYNC(Heartbeat-SYNC) 스케줄 일원화 방안을 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능비교 및 평가를 실시한 결과 낮은 에너지 소모를 달성하였다.

  • This paper presented future power system protection technologies through the HW/SW integration platform with IEC 61850 and IEEE c37.238 standards. To determine the implementation performance of the integrated platform, an example of EVM (Evaluation Module) was constructed to satisfy the standards. The platform has been identified as a future power system integrated IED(Intelligent Electronic Device) HW/SW technology that meets the level of error required by the time sync standard and the level of delay required by protecting the power system.
