Globalization and multi-culturalizm have put light on the importance of cultural identity. To find or establish cultural identity designers have made their effort in their practice. Understanding possible expressional method for cultural identity in this context koreanity, can be a basis to promote such activities. The propose of this study is to investigate expressional method of koreanity in interior design cases appeared which were introduced in major domestic periodical publications since 1995. 43 cases were analyzed by using the analysis frame of 4 expressional method , such as an indicative imitation method, a partial invoked method, a partial transformation method and a conceptual reception method. As result 47％ of total cases were used the partial transformation method. 16％ by the indicative imitation method, 7％ by the partial invoked method and 30％ by the conceptual reception method. This result indicated designers have had more active attitude in expressing koreanity with interpretation of traditional concept in a contemporary way, rather than simply introducing and immitating traditional object. Design examples were organized and explained according to expressional method types.

In recent years, better quality in power electric services is being required with the development of information industries and the improvement of living standards. Also, the small scaled dispersed storage and generation (DSG) systems are being interconnected with the distribution systems and customers by the influence of the recent issues such as deregulation and global environmental problems in power system. Under these circumstances, it is very important to maintain the customer voltages within allowable limits for the distribution system which is located at the most sensitive part in the power system. To overcome these problems, this paper shows the basic concepts of FRIENDS which is considered as one of the power delivery system in the near future and also presents an evaluation method on the impacts of customer voltages by operation models of FRIENDS. The FRIENDS can change the system configuration in a flexible manner by using the static switches and offer the different power qualities in power services through the power quality control centers which play the most important role in FRIENDS. Numerical examples are shown in order to indicate the efficiency of the proposed method.

Maps are one of the most complicated types of drawings. Drawing recognition technology is not yet sophisticated enough for automated map reading To automatically extract a road map directly from more complicated topographical maps, a very complicated algorithm is needed, since the image generally involves such complicated patterns as symbols, characters, residential sections, rivers, railroads, etc. This paper describes a new feature extraction method based on the human optical neural field. We apply this method to extract complete set of road segments from topographical maps. The proposed method successfully extract road segments from various areas.
