In this paper, a new handover procedure for OFDM-based multi-hop relay systems is proposed to reduce the handover overhead by distinguishing inter-cell handover event from intra-cell handover event at the level of physical layer using a hierarchical design concept of preamble. A Subcell ID concept for identifying RS in a cell is proposed in the design of hierarchical manner, in addition to the existing Cell ID for identifying BS. The decision on either inter-cell handover or intra-cell handover is made by the signal quality measure of CBINR(Carrier of BS to Interference and Noise Ratio) and CRINR(Carrier of RS to Interference and Noise Ratio), provided by the hierarchical preamble. The proposed handover procedure can simplify scanning procedure and skip/simplify network re-entry procedure (capability negotiation, authorization, registration), resulting in a significant reduction of handover overhead.

To promote information service and to encourage active participation from the group categorized as the alienated class(group of people) this study suggests the basic concepts and strategy for the information services to alienated class who does not have full public library services. The paper classifies three separate groups of alienated groups, handicapped. poor(economically unfortunate group) and elderly group. The service shall consider their needs from their own Point of concern and interests. There are three distinctive considerations, infra structure(facility building, space. place). administrative consideration, and equipments. Infra-structure includes the planning of the space to facilitate the equipments and reference materials which will be control)ed and moderated by a librarian. Administrative service includes the development for the educational system between the end users and external experts. It also includes the individualized education system for each group Material and equipment consideration should include the each group's specific needs such as the infra-structures which is provided for the handicapped person.

최근의 에이전트 시스템 연구는 간단한 작업을 처리하는 단일 에이전트들이 모여 하나의 서비스를 제공하는 멀티 에이전트 시스템 분야에서 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 멀티 에이전트 시스템에서는 요구된 서비스를 구성원들이 효율적으로 협동하여 제공하기 위해 이들을 통합하고 실행순서 등을 조정하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 계획, 그룹, 작업의 세가지 단계로 구분되는 규칙과 ECA 규칙을 사용하여 계층적 작업흐름을 정의하고 이를 통하여 에이전트들을 조정하는 방법을 제안한다. 계층적 작업흐름의 사용으로 기존의 방법과 달리 에이전트를 계층화하여 새로운 서비스를 구성할 경우 세부적인 수행사항에 대한 언급없이 상위 단계의 계획 규칙만을 지정하여 구성할 수 있는 장점이 있다.

This study examines the acceptability of nuclear facilities using the latent class analysis. Even though, nuclear power is useful in terms of economic and energy security aspects, it is very difficult to expand the existing nuclear power plants or build a new one. Many studies analysed the cause of unacceptability of nuclear facilities but it has not been focused how large portion of people are divided pro and con. It is very important to know the distribution of people by the attitude toward nuclear facilities in order to meet the long term National Energy Plan. Through the latent class analysis with 1,025 respondents, people are classified into three groups(favor-class, support-class, opposition-class). The favor-class is the largest group which has moderate good attitudes toward the nuclear facilities in terms of economy, cleanness. and necessity but concerns a little about safety. The second largest group is the support-class which comprises 1/4 portion of people. The people in the class show the aggressive support for the nuclear facilities. 15% of the respondents belong to the opposition-class which show the negative attitudes to expansion of neclear facilities. In order to increase the acceptability of nuclear faculties, the most urgent work for the government to do is to less people's concern about nuclear safety.

The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyse the revised contents of the history class in the Korean Decimal Classification(KDC), 5th edition, and then identify problems and propose the revised contents for the KDC, 6the edition. Major analysed areas are divided into four. First, geographic area table is discussed. It includes extension of the geographic area table, emphasis of hierarchical structure in the geographical area, revision of North Korean geographical names, extension of subgeographical structure of major nations in the world, and revision of nations in the central and west Asia. Second, Korean time period is extended. Third, the notes of entries of the Chinese and Japanese history areas are shorten. Fourth, the geographical and personal names are changed their native pronunciation, specially Chinese and Japanese. For the revision of the KDC, 6th edition, four areas are discussed: first, Korean geographic areas would be categorized by broaden area, second, the areas are arranged from the capital of the nation to others, third, foreign geographical names would be used their native names, and last, time period would be categorized by years.

This paper proposes a design of efficient hierarchy structure in the tile based rasterizer. The proposed hierarchy structure avoids unnecessary calls of low level tile at which a calculation is not required. A low level tile is classified into three categories based on its maximum, minimum position, and inside outside test. The necessity of calculations on the corresponding low level tile can be determined by its classification. The overall amount of computations for graphic processing can be reduced by not calling for the low level tile with no calculation. The proposed hierarchy structure can reduce an execution time of graphic processing. It shows higher efficiency with the more vertex density of formulating 3D model.

In this paper, a semi-automatic approach is adopted to extract a semantic object from real-world video sequences human-aided segmentation for the first frame and automatic tracking for the remaining frames. The proposed algorithm has a hierarchical structure using watershed algorithm. Each hierarchy consists of 3 basic steps: First, seeds are extracted from the simplified current frame. Second, region growing bv a modified watershed algorithm is performed to get over-segmented regions. Finally, the segmented regions are classified into 3 categories, i.e., inside, outside or uncertain regions according to region probability values, which are acquired by the probability map calculated from an estimated motion-vector field. Then, for the remaining uncertain regions, the above 3 steps are repeated at lower hierarchies with less simplified frames until every region is classified into a certain region. The proposed algorithm provides prospective results in studio-quality sequences such as 'Claire', 'Miss America', 'Akiyo', and 'Mother and daughter'.

This study examined the patterns of coping strategies among Koreans during the early stage of the COVID-19 pandemic, explored the influence of demographic information (gender, age, economic level, household type), along with the unusual experiences due to COVID-19 (fear, stress of COVID, constraints of routine, income risk) on the classification of subclasses, and analyzed the latent profile differences in psychological wellbeing (life satisfaction, depression, and anxiety). An online survey was conducted among Korean Adults(n=600) between April 13, 2020 and 21, when WHO declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and Daegu as well as Gyeongsangbuk-do was nominated as a special disaster zone. First, Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was used to identify subclasses of coping strategies and results suggested that the 4-class model had the best fit. Second, Class memberships were predicted by gender, age, economic level, as well as fear, stress, constraints of routine, and income risk, among the unusual experiences due to COVID-19. Finally, there are differences in psychological wellbeing among latent profiles. 'High level of adaptive coping group 3' showed the highest level of life satisfaction, 'Adaptive-maladaptive coping group 4' showed the highest level of depression, anxiety. Implications and suggestions are discussed based on the study results.
