본 논문은 교통 신호 제어 알고리즘들의 성능을 비교하기 위한 복수 교차로 시뮬레이터를 구현하였다. 기존의 교통 시뮬레이터들은 단일교차로를 대상으로 하거나 텍스트 모드로 동작하는 경우가 많았다. 논문의 시뮬레이터는 Visual C++의 MFC 라이브러리를 사용하여 n$\times$n 형태를 갖는 복수 교차로에 적합하도록 객체 지향적으로 구현되었으며, 성능 비교를 위하여 제어 알고리즘들을 별개의 윈도우에서 처리하기 쉽도록 MDI 방식을 사용하였다. 객체지향 프로그래밍 기술로 시뮬레이터를 설계하였기 때문에 편리할 뿐만 아니라 확장이나 수정이 용이하다는 장점을 갖는다.

The study on the left turning trajectory has not done many times in Korea. Because of this, there are a lot of intersections built without considering on turning trajectory of vehicles, in Korea, and we can see many conflicts, reduced capacity of turn, especially at small intersections. Even if left turn trajectory is designed well, it is not easy to mark exactly on the pavement according to the turn trajectory. This study suggests "drop Islands" which can be seen in Europe, and is introduced in Korea recently, to solve the problems of conflicts and reduced capacity of turning. It suggests a table of location of the stop line so that the engineers who design the intersection design appropriate left turn trajectory and marking of the stop line and turn trajectory is done more exactly. To evaluate the effect of "drop island", two intersections with and without drop island were compared on the turnning radii and location of stop line. Construction of "drop island" can increase the capacity of intersection and safety without additional land and construction expenses.

This research deals with the relations between intersection types and traffic accidents in the case of Korean expressways. The purpose of this research is to test the hypotheses that traffic accidents depend on intersection types and geometric design elements. The main research results are as follows. First, the accident comparisons that are drawn from junctions with interchanges, and trumpet interchanges with other types of interchanges respectively displays no significant meaning. However, the differences among four types of trumpet interchanges are found to be meaningful. In other words, the BO type trumpet interchanges seem to have far more traffic accidents than other types of trumpet interchanges. Second, hypothesis tests show that approximately 90 degree and one lane connection roads have lower accident rates. Based on this research, the following directions can be suggested for the safer types of intersections and geometric design elements in freeway construction. From a road safety point of view, it is advisable not to introduce BO type interchanges. It is also desirable that the intersection angle should be approximately 90 degrees. Furthermore, it would be wise to design one lane roads if the connection road has low traffic volumes.

The design goal of protocols in wireless sensor networks (WSN) is mainly energy efficiency because of their stringent resource and energy constraints. In this paper, we propose a simple cross-layered protocol for WSNs, so called EATD(Energy-Aware Tree based Delivery scheme). EATD is a tree-based energy aware data delivery algorithm by using a SYNC packet with link and node cost to maximize the network lifetime. Our simulation results show significant improvements compared with existing schemes in terms of energy efficiency and delay.

A traffic accident prediction model developed using various design variables(road design variables, geometric variables, and traffic environmental variables) is one of the most important factors to safety design evaluation system for roads. However, statistical accident models have a crucial problem not applicable for all intersections. To make up this problem, this study developed AMFs(Accident Modification Factors) through statistical modeling methods, historical accident databases, judgment from traffic experts, and literature review by considering design variable's characteristics, traffic accident rates, and traffic accident frequency. AMFs developed in this study include exclusive left-turn lane, exclusive right-turn lane, sight distance, and intersection angle. Predictabilities of the developed AMFs and the existing accident prediction models are compared with real accident historical data. The results showed that performances of the developed AMFs are superior to the existing statistical accident prediction models. These findings show that AMFs should be considered as a important process to develop safety design evaluation algorithms. Additionally, AMFs could be used as an index that can judge the impact of corresponding design variables on accidents in rural intersections.

Five and more leg intersections have been still in operation in many urban areas. The number of conflicts in five leg intersection is more than four leg intersection. The signal timing design in the five leg intersection should be performed not only to reduce delay but also to increase safety. This paper suggests safety enhanced signal phase sequence design of a rotary with five leg intersection such as phase sequence minimizing the number of conflict points at the rotary with five leg intersections and the phase-length-design procedure by utilizing the Traffic Network Study Tool(TRANSYT). Field data was collected from Gonguptap five leg intersection in Ulsan and TRANSYT-7F was applied for signal timing design model. Optimal signal phase length and sequence of TRANSYT-7F is rearranged based on the Principal of "two moving traffic flows per phase". In conclusion, proposed signal phase design increased delay by 6.2% compared with the optimal signal phase of TRANSYT-7F. However, it could decrease the number of conflict in the five leg intersection by 61.5%.

The focus of this study is on the elements of structure design that facilitate u user interaction with applications within cyberspace Structure design entails decisions regarding the optimal classification and hierarchical organization of information into s successively higher units. i.e .. the grouping of highly related information in the form of nodes of a site and the subsequent connection of nodes that are inter-related. The decisions are based on the designer's subjective classification framework. which is not always compatible with that of the user. We propose that the ensuing cognitive dissonance can be reduced via the employment of multiple hierarchies and cross-referencing links. Multiple hierarchies represent a single information space in terms of a number of single hierarchies. each of which represent a different perspective Cross-referencing refers to the inter-connection between the constituent hierarchies by providing a link to the alternate hierarchy for information that is most likely to be categorized in diverse manners by users with differing perspectives. In this study we conducted two empirical studies to gauge the effectiveness of multiple hierarchies and Cross-referencing links in the domain of cyber shopping malls. In the first phase. an experiment was conducted to determine how subjects classified given products with respect to two different perspectives for categorization. Experimental cyber malls were developed based on the results from the first phase to test the effectiveness of multiple hierarchies and cross-referencing links. Results show that the ease of navigation was higher for cyber malls that had implemented cross-referencing links are of greater value when used in conjunction with single hierarchical designs rather than multiple hierarchies. Users satisfaction with and ease of navigation was higher for cyber malls that had not implemented multiple hierarchies. This paper concludes with discussion of these results and their implications for designers of cyber malls.

In this paper, a narrow-band bandpass filter using microstrip open-loop resonators with coupled and crossing lines is designed and fabricated. This filter has many advantages such as compact in size, low weight and the characteristic of the elliptic-function narrow-band bandpass filtering. The configuration consists of two identical microstrip open loop resonators, coupled line and crossing line. By using open loop resonators, the size of the filter can be reduced about 50% compared with the ring resonators. A crossing line gives two notchs in the stopband, which have sharp selectivity in the passband. Centered at 2.455GHz, the calculated microstrip bandpass filter shows a bandwidth of 1.22%, which makes it very attractive for application in the wireless LAN. The filter is fabricated by photo-etching process. The fabricated bandpass filter shows that the bandwidth is 0.85% for 2.458GHz and the size is only $2.6cm\times1cm$.
