Most of the existing routing methods regard the whole node (i.e. pair of a router and a core) as faulty; therefore, depending on the fault distribution, many fault-free nodes may become unusable (i.e. unused node) for proper packet routing. To overcome this problem, the proposed method routes packets based on a new fault model called partial fault model. The basic concept of the proposed method is to treat faults on the components of routers as the failure of routing functions. Simulation result shows that the proposed method reduces the number of unused nodes and improves communication latency up to 60% and 66%, respectively, compared with the exiting methods.","PeriodicalId":416104,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 5th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics","volume":"212 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117297341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When developing circuit designs, the influence of circuit designs on the surrounding components and vice versa is a critical concern that must be considered. In addition, electromagnetic interference, video signal integrity, and zero video-quality interference are factors that must be addressed. In this study, a hardware circuit design architecture was introduced. Because the cameras were required to be set up in the air to take aerial videos, airline-related laws and near-field experiments related to the electromagnetic interference tests were compared. Which revealed that the system were in accordance with the aforementioned laws.","PeriodicalId":416104,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 5th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics","volume":"142 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114537449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though this has not changed for at least 10 years, we think UI sounds could be designed more useful and fascinated. This time we investigated what kinds of sound are used on recent CE UIs, and how users use and what they think of these sounds. As a result, users mostly understand the message when they hear the sound, which means the sound functions as a UI sound. However, users neither like nor dislike these sounds. We propose, therefore, to use UI sounds, which are melody, voice, and even synthetic tones (which means not only beeps but also various timbres.) This would enable us not only to express the messages intuitively but also to express the product's own unique images (including the branding image) and make it easier for users to distinguish between products.","PeriodicalId":416104,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 5th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics","volume":"795 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116138451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
