This paper investigates the textile negotiations between Korea and the U.S. which Korea, as a weaker party in the bilateral trade negotiation, was recognized as making a good performance by Odell(1985). Using the documents of Korean governments at the time - Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce and Industry - telegrams and reports from various sources the paper picks a leveling factor during the negotiations. In the paper, we used a dynamic concept of power for describing the negotiating power, and showed Korea succeeded in making the negotiation symmetric using the Special Cooperative Relationship(SCR) as one of the most conspicuous leveling factors during the textile negotiations with the U.S. The paper contributes to finding the factors that can be used in the negotiations with power asymmetry as a leveling factor for weaker country. Also, based on the findings from the paper, future negotiators can get insights on which factors be used, and how to use those factors for leveling the negotiations with a stronger counterpart.

As augmented reality technology becomes more common and prevelant, marker-based AR contents are applied in various ways. However AR contents are still hardly utilized due to the low recognition rate of marker images. In order to increase the recognition rate of AR marker images, this paper experiment and analyzed how much the recognition rate of markers could be improved when image correction and design changes was applied. The experimental result shows that the image correction task could significantly improve the number of image characteristics and the recognition grade if the image was modified in a way its saturation value is increased. Moreover, the recognition rate was improved even more when regular pattern design was added to the original marker image. In conclusion, it was possible to make the marker well recognized through proper correction of the image and additional process of pattern design in the process of producing the marker image.

Go has a history of more than 2,500 years, and the life-and-death problems in Go is a fundamental problem domain that must be solved when implementing a computer Go. We attempted to determine the numbers of prototypical eye shapes with 3, 4, 5, and 6 eyes that are directly related to the life-and-death problems, and to classify the prototypical eye shapes represented in 4-tuple forms. Experiment was conducted by Monte-Carlo method and point pattern matching. According to the experimental results, the numbers of prototypical eye shapes were 2 for 3-eye, 5 for 4-eye, 12 for 5-eye, and 35 for 6-eye shapes. Further, using a 4-tuple form, we classified prototypical eye shapes into 1 for 3-eye, 3 for 4-eye, 4 for 5-eye, and 8 for 6-eye shapes.

In this paper, we propseded the Youngwoo keyboard to help the communication disorders experienced by patients with dysarthria. Existing methods for communication by patients with dysarthria include a letter board with consonants and vowels, a mouse using eye tracking, and communication assistance applications. However, there was a delay of more than 5 minutes per sentence, so there were many difficulties in communication. However, unlike the existing method, the proposed method has been improved so that the patient with dysarthria can communicate by completing the sentences with eye movements. In the conclusion and future work of this paper, the educational use value for Yeongwoo keyboard was analyzed, and it was shown that this training can be of great help to families with ALS patients. The proposed keyboard will be able to improve the difficulties of families by facilitating communication of patients with dysarthria.

COVID-19 provided visitors with new online concerts that gradually increased in many ways. The disadvantage of current online concerts is that cannot make full use of the interaction with others. We hope to provide online concert audiences with the same experience as offline. This study was conducted under the condition that the audience watched online concerts and movies individually or group. Experimental results confirm that watching online concerts collectively will increase the sense of immersion. It can be used as a design guide for the virtual public viewing environment in the future.

This paper is on the research result for analyzing the performance of GLORY(GLobal Resource management sYstem) used for Web Server Cluster system, which was developed at ETRI(Electronic and Telecommunication Research Institute). The paper includes the definition of Web Server Cluster System, the characteristics of the system, user oriented system performance, current performance enhancement methods, computer simulation model for GLORY and its experimental results for the performance of GLORY. GLORY is composed of 2048~1,000,000 units of PCs, and is used for Internet servers. From the results of the simulation experiments, we notice that GLORY has enough capacity to fully serve the appropriate level of Internet services. Also, the results show that Web server service time is longer than that for network transmission time but requires more DNS than expected, and that 100Mbps LAN is good enough for directly connecting Internet to the Web servers while not affecting the total system performance.

Brain-Machine Interfaces(BMI) are interfaces that control machines by decoding brainwaves, which are electrical signals generated from neural activities. Although BMIs can be applied in various fields, their widespread usage is hindered by the low portability of the hardware required for brainwave measurement and decoding. To address this issue, previous research proposed a brain-machine interface system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) using cloud computing. In this study, we developed and tested an application that uses brainwaves to control the Pong game, demonstrating the real-time usability of the system. The results showed that users of the proposed BMI achieved scores comparable to optimal control artificial intelligence in real-time Pong game matches. Thus, this research suggests that IoT-based brain-machine interfaces can be utilized in a variety of real-time applications in everyday life.
