As the weight of embedded memory within Systems-On-Chips(SoC) rapidly increases to 80-90% of the number of total transistors, the importance of testing embedded memory in SoC increases. This paper proposes IEEE std. 1500 wrapper based Programmable Memory Built-In Self-Test(PMBIST) architecture which can support various kinds of test algorithm. The proposed PMBIST guarantees high flexibility, programmability and fault coverage using not only March algorithms but also non-March algorithms such as Walking and Galloping. The PMBIST has an optimal hardware overhead by an optimum program instruction set and a smaller program memory. Furthermore, the proposed fault information processing scheme guarantees improvement of the memory yield by effectively supporting three types of the diagnostic methods for repair and diagnosis.

This paper describes the design and implementation of the kWebAnywhere system based on WebAnywhere, which assists people with severely diminished eye sight and the blind people to access Internet information through Web interfaces. The WebAnywhere is a server-based web reader which reads aloud the web contents using TTS(text-to-speech) technology on the Internet without installing any software on the client's system. The system can be used in general web browsers using a built-in audio function, for blind users who are unable to afford to use a screen reader and for web developers to design web accessibility. However, the WebAnywhere is limited to supporting only a single language and cannot be applied to Korean web contents directly. Thus, in this paper, we modified the WebAnywhere to serve multiple language contents written in both English and Korean texts. The modified WebAnywhere system is called kWebAnywhere to differentiate it with the original system. The kWebAnywhere system is modified to support the Korean TTS system, VoiceText$^{TM}$, and to include user interface to control the parameters of the TTS system. Because the VoiceText$^{TM}$ system does not support the Festival API used in the WebAnywhere, we developed the Festival Wrapper to transform the VoiceText$^{TM}$'s private APIs to the Festival APIs in order to communicate with the WebAnywhere engine. We expect that the developed system can help people with severely diminished eye sight and the blind people to access the internet contents easily.

Purpose: This paper presents an appropriate wrapping method by analyzing the pressure distribution applied to a bale surface, along with the change in pressure according to an increase in the number of film layers in rice straw bales, which account for 74% of the total bulky feed supply in Korea. Methods: A model with the shape of an actual bale was fabricated to analyze the distribution of surface pressure in bale wrapping, and the pressure was measured. Experiments were conducted to analyze the pressure using eight different layer numbers (2, 4, 6, 8 10, 12, 14, and 16 layers) at five wrapping speeds (27, 29, 31, 33, and 35 rpm). Results: The maximum pressure applied to a circular bale by the film occurred at the center of the end of the bale, whereas the minimum pressure occurred at the center of the bale side. An extreme value ratio between the minimum and maximum pressures was distributed as 8.5-56.6%, which was improved with an increase in rotation speed. The an uneven pressure distribution occurred because the number of film overlaps was 8.24-times greater at the center of the bale's end than at the center of the ba le side. At a level 5 rotation speed, the minimum pressure was $P_{LV5-M1}=0.0625{\sigma}^2+36.173{\sigma}-36.753$ ($R^2=0.9845$) at $M_1$, and the maximum pressure was $P_{LV5-M6}=5.5552{\sigma}^2+41.05{\sigma}-39.071$ at $M_2$, revealing a correlation of $R^2=0.9983$. Conclusions: To replace four layers with six layers, 2-4 layers were added only to the side of the bale, and the minimum pressure at $M_1$ was then improved from that at four layers to that at six layers, and the amount of film consumed for 4-6 layers was reduced by 84.6%.

This study is to suggest versatile chair designs that are organically shaped to take individual orientation. This study intends to provide design method to ensure the face of the chair that contacts the body of its user is transformed flexibly to support the body. The movement of human body is not just a behavior but the ways and tools that reflexively express against external stimuli that are sensed and identified by the person. The versatile chair whose users' sitting position is fixed is made by covering the lump form with a piece of cloth ensuring that the content is firmly fixed and by placing the beads-woven wood fabric according to the shape. And then, it is covered with the external cover. The proposed versatile chair designs assume specific forms as follows: First, it is a versatile chair whose user's sitting position can fix. The organically-shaped form that can accept varying postures is made as a mass, which changes into different shapes when human body touches the form so that users can lie down or sit. Due to such transformation, body posture is determined and individual differences in shape changing are all acceptable. Second, it is a versatile chair that reflects the user's position in a fixed chair, where a cloth-wrapper feature is applied to the form a sifit wrapped postures so that a variety of body postures can be accepted. Finally, a versatile chair that reflects the user's position by changing the shape of is covered with forms so that it will be transformed and used in accordance with situations and chair shapes and reflect multiple shapes including round or square ones.

EJB(Enterprise JavaBeans) is the server-side component model and its purpose is to reduce the complexity of software development and to increase software reusability. Many concerns for development of EJB components have recently been raised. However, it is difficult to compose EJB components provided by third parties through the plug-and-play method. Therefore, the composition method by lego block styles is needed for EJB components. In this paper, we propose an approach to composition of EJB components using the C2 architectural style. In order to support EJB composition, we modified the general C2 architecture framework. We propose how to create EJB wrappers that can compose EJB components according to the C2 framework. Our approach also enables developers to create a new composite EJB that uses a C2 architecture which is composed of EJB components. To do this, we propose how to create a new composite EJB.

This study provides information for the design of pediatric inpatient uniforms with functionality and aesthetic beauty through a questionnaire-survey of the conditions of providing, wearing, preferences and improvement requirements for pediatric inpatient uniforms. As a result of the survey, intravenous injections were mostly given on the back of the hand, and the method of changing uniforms after intravenous injections was (in most cases) to pass the injection bottle through a sleeve or pant leg while the needle is inserted. The respondents answered that the sleeve length and pant length did not match. As a result of the preference of the pediatric inpatient design survey, respondents indicated they preferred pajama type, yellow color and medium size animal patterns. A similar ratio of set-in and raglan with no collar but with 3/4 length sleeve of round neck, front end, sleeve top opening, button closing and two pockets were preferred for shirts; however, a 3/4 length with rubber string on the waist, no opening and inner opening were preferred at the same ratio for pants. As for the method to adjust the length to assign functionality to pediatric inpatient uniforms, the most preferred sleeve was a roll-up sleeve with a strap and the most preferred pants were length adjusted pants that used a strap for both shirts and pants with a both sides strap. In addition, the majority of the respondents answered that a hand wrapper that protects the injection location during intravenous injections needs be developed. As for the development type, a half glove type and glove type were preferred in sequential order.

Tester Interface Software (TIS) provides all software functions that are necessary for a testing device to perform the test process on a memory semiconductor package from the time the device is put into the test equipment until the device is discharged from the equipment. TIS should perform the same work over all types of equipment regardless of their tester models. However, TIS has been developed and managed independently of the tester models because there are various equipment and computer models that are used in the test process. Therefore, more maintenance, time and cost are required for development, which adversely affects the quality of the software, and the problem becomes more serious when the new tester model is introduced. In this paper, we propose the Cross-platform Tester Interface Software (CTIS) framework, which can be integrated and operated on heterogeneous equipment and OSs.

Reusing IPs requires interface protocol related tasks such as writing test benches and designing interface protocol conversion circuits, e.g. wrappers for IPs. The results of those tasks usually include IPC(interface protocol component)s for the corresponding IPs, similar to bus protocol components of the bus functional models. This paper proposes a methodology for the interface circuit design using synthesizable In that can be re-used. IPC recognizes or executes transactions over the given interface ports. So we present a transaction-oriented interface protocol description language, and a method to convert the description into an IPC in synthesizable VHDL code. With experiments, we show that the interface design using IPC does not cause significant area overhead compared with the interface design without IPC. The proposed IPC-based approach can be employed to reduce the interface design time since the designers can reuse IPCs without understanding the detailed interface protocols.

As the degree of dependency and application of component increases, the need to strengthen security of component is also increased as well. The component gives an advantage to improve development productivity through its reusable software. Even with this advantage, vulnerability of component security limits its reuse. When the security level of a component is raised in order to improve this problem, the most problematic issue will be that it may extend its limitation on reusability. Therefore, a component model concerning its reusability and security at the same time should be supplied. We suggest a Separation of Concerns Security Model for Extension of Component Reuse which is integrated with a wrapper model and an aspect model and combined with a reuse model in order to extend its security and reusability by supplying information hiding and easy modification, and an appropriate application system to verify the model's compatibility is even constructed. This application model gives the extension of component function and easy modification through the separation of conceits, and it raise its security as doll as extends its reusability.
