High performance non-volatile memory system can mitigate the gap between main memory and storage. However, no single memory devices fulfill the requirements. Non-volatile Dual In-line Memory Module (NVDIMM) consisted of DRAMs and NAND Flashes has been proposed to achieve the performance and non-volatility simultaneously. When power outage occurs, data in DRAM is backed up into NAND Flash using a small-size external energy storage such as a supercapacitor. Backup and restore operations of NVDIMM do not cooperate with the operating system in the NVDIMM standard, thus there is room to optimize its operation. This paper analysis the operation of NVDIMM and proposes a method to reduce backup and restore time. Particularly, data compression is introduced to reduce the amount of data that to be backed up and restored. The simulation results show that the proposed method reduces up to 72.6% of backup and restore time.

Image data processing on the region of interest (ROI) for providing the primary information is needed the view of saving search time and bandwidth over image communications related to web browsing, image database, and telemedicine, etc. Hence, the issue on extracting the region of interest is drawing a plenty of attention for the communication environment with a relatively low bandwidth such as mobile internet. In this paper, we propose a improved standard Maxshift method. The proposed algorithm compress image that includes multiple ROI using Maxshift method in Part 1 of JPEG2000. Simulation results show that proposed method increases PSNR vs. compression ratio performance above the Maxshift method.

The displacement current measurement has been employed to study the dielectric properties of Langmuir films. A method for determining the dielectric relaxation time $\tau$ of floating monolayers on water surface is presented. The displacement current flowing across monolayers is analyzed using a rod-like molecular model. It's revealed that the dielectric relaxation time $\tau$ of monolayers in the isotropic polar orientational phase is determined using a liner relationship between the monolayers compression speed $\alpha$ and the molecular maximum area $A_{m}$. The compression speed $\alpha$ was about 30, 40, 50mm/minmm/min

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that shorten coding time maintaining image quality in JPEG2000, which is the standard, of still image compression. This method encodes only the bit plane selected as appropriate truncation point for output bitstream, obtained from estimation of frequency distribution for whole image. Wavelet characterized by multi-resolution has vertical, horizontal, and diagonal frequency components for each resolution. The frequency interrelation addressed above is maintained thorough whole level of resolution and represents the unique frequency characteristics for input image. Thus, using the frequency relation at highest level, we can pick the truncation point for the compression time decrease by estimating code bits at encoding each code block. Also, we reduced the encoding time using simply down sampling instead of low-pass filtering at low-levels which are not encoded in color component of lower energy than luminance component. From the proposed algorithm, we can reduce about 15~36% of encoding time maintaining PSNR 30$\pm$0.5㏈.

Recently, to reduce test cost by efficiently compressing test patterns for SOCs(System-on-a-chip), different compression techniques have been proposed including the FDR(Frequency-directed run-length) algorithm. FDR is extended to EFDR(Extended-FDR), SAFDR(Shifted-Alternate-FDR) and VPDFDR(Variable Prefix Dual-FDR) to improve the compression ratio. In this paper, a frequency-ordered modification is proposed to further augment the compression ratios of FDR, EFDR, SAFRD and VPDFDR. The compression ratio can be maximized by using frequency-ordered method and consequently the overall manufacturing test cost and time can be reduced significantly.

Purpose: The object of this study was to compare the educational effect about self-efficacy and the quality of chest compressions of Hands-only CPR and Basic CPR. Methods: It's a nonequivalent control group pre-post repeated quasi-experiment study conducted with entire fifth grade students belong to one school in H city. The study participants are 68 persons, and data were collected from December 2, 2013 to February 7, 2014. Self-efficacy was measured by 10 items, and the quality of chest compressions was measured by 5 variables which are average compression depth(mm), average rate (n/min), average count per minutes (n), abnormal placement (n), compression accuracy (%). Results: Self-efficacy of the experimental group and control group showed no significant difference but showed significant difference over time and was the highest at posttest 1 (immediately after education), the lowest at pretest (before education), middle at posttest 2 (8weeks after education) (p<.001). Experimental group was significantly higher than control group in average rate per minute. At posttest 1, experimental group was $130.0{\pm}9.38$ times, control group was $95.1{\pm}11.82$ times. At posttest2, experimental group was $124.0{\pm}14.89$ times, control group was $90.8{\pm}14.89$ times.(p<.001). Average rate (n/min) was significantly declined at control group in the quality of chest compressions over time (t=-2.400, p=.022). Average count per minute and compression accuracy were declined significantly so it were not maintained to posttest2. Conclusion: We need continuous CPR education because self-efficacy of CPR getting lower significantly over time. Hands-only CPR can't be seen as a way to increase the CPR ability of elementary school students having difficulty to perform artificial breathing. And, because the effect of education is not maintained 8wks after training, the technique centered repeated training is needed and a method which can increase compression accuracy is also needed.

Numerical studies were carried out to investigate the long-term behavior of late plates in basement, subjected to combined in-plane compressive and transverse loads. For the numerical studies, a computer program of nonlinear finite element analysis was modified by adding function of creep and shrinkage analysis. This numerical method was verified by comparison with the existing experiments. Parametric studies were performed to investigate the strength variations of flat plates with three parameters; 1) loading sequence of floor load, compression and time 2) uniaxial an biaxial compression and 3) the ratio of dead to live load.

The diagnostic medical images(CT, MRI) in PACS require large storage and long transmission time. A simple and cheap way of overcoming these limitations is to increase the compression ratio. However, this requires a clinical validation for accurate diagnostic applications. The aim of this paper is to improve the compression efficiency of lossless JPEG2000 for diagnostic CT images by performing a visual-Iossless threshold filtering in high frequency subband. A proposed method, based on 5/3 reversible DWT, provides different subband-threshold values according to the compression ratio and gives the high subjective quality to reconstructed diagnostic CT images.

The large scaled field test by prefabricated vertical drains was performed to evaluate the superiority of vertical discharge capacity for drain materials through compare and analyze the time-settlement behavior with drain spacing and the compression index and consolidation coefficient obtained by laboratory experiments and field monitoring system 1. The relation of measurement settlement( $S_{m}$) versus design settlement( $S_{t}$) and measurement consolidation ratio( $U_{m}$) versus design consolidation ratio( $U_{t}$) were shown $S_{m}$=(1.0~l.1) $S_{t}$, $U_{m}$=(1.13~l.17) $U_{t}$, at 1.0m drain spacing and $S_{m}$=(0.7~0.8) $S_{t}$, $U_{m}$=(0.92~0.99) $U_{t}$ at 1.5m drain spacing, respectively. 2. The relation of field compression index( $C_{cfield}$) and virgin compression index( $V_{cclab}$) was shown $C_{cfield}$=(1.0~1.2) $V_{cclab}$, But it was nearly same value when considered the error with determination method of virgin compression index and prediction method of total settlement. 3. field consolidation coefficient was larger than laboratory consolidation coefficient, and the consolidation coefficient ratio( $C_{h}$/ $C_{v}$) were $C_{h}$=(2.4 ~ 3.0) $C_{v}$. $C_{h}$=(3.5 ~ 4.3) $C_{v}$ at 1.0m and 1.5m drain spacing and increased with increasing of drain spacingngasing of drain spacingng spacingng

H.264/AVC for DMB is the most advanced video compression standard which provides a high compression rate and a video quality by adopting new technologies. However, these new technologies prevent us from applying some conventional algorithms directly to the H.264/AVC compression domain. For example, we need to study new image resizing schemes in the compressed bit-stream. So, in this paper, we propose a new thumbnail extraction method which can be applied to H.264. The proposed method shows that it can extract a 1/16 size thumbnail video, saving the operation time up to 50% to 70%.
