In this paper, a system that implementation of Access Control System Using Biometric System. Biometries is science which deals with verifying or recognizing using physiological or behavioral characteristic Access Control System uses Bionietric system to make an access control system. Biometrics goes under the study of bio-recognition or bio-measurement. It is a technology or study that identifies individuals using one's Biometric character. Access control system is a system used to identify one's entrance and exit, personal management, and security. Access control system can be joined with Biometric system to produce easier use and more sufficient effects. Access control system using Weigand (Data format) signal output, can replace earlier RF Card systems and make an access control (security) system. It uses RS-232, Rs-422 or TCP/IP type communication with the computer so an embedded system can be controlled using the software.

This paper investigates the issuance of medical records of patients and caregivers who have obtained medical records from the Medical Record Information Center of "a university" in Daejeon from January through March in 2006. According to the structural equation, "the time zone for issuance of medical records" was -0.01 as a path coefficient against "how medical records are issued" and +0.86 against "ordinary characteristics." As shown above, privacy and confidentiality are what really matters in the management of medical records. Therefore, they must be protected regardless of whether the medical records are hard or electronic copies.

Light is a basic force that functions in all the formative arts. Light (brightness) is an important subject of study in that it contains the force to control emotion and has much influence upon the shaping of a visual image and a feeling. If an artist systematizes the characteristics of brightness and creates an image, he or she can acquire a useful tool of expression. Because light is a powerful medium of expression of a visual image, a study on the characteristics of brightness for the emotional expression of an image in the contextual relationship with narratives seemingly has a crucial meaning. Emotion is influenced by a visual image very much, and a visual image is inevitably influenced by light. The brightness by light is basically classified into bright, dim, and dark. And the three basic stages of brightness specialize an image according to the setting of scope of maximal and minimal luminosity, and the image is further differentiated by the size of bright portion or dark portion. Since emotion is such a phenomenon as immaterial and psychological, it is difficult to break down it. Furthermore, clarifying the principle of an image in which the shade of light is associated is impossible. However, the width of luminosity and the change of size can give quite a change to a visual image, and the visual image has further influence upon man's emotion too. Although the influence of brightness upon a visual image varies with extents, circumstances, and personal tastes and interests, even the same image clearly changes with the adjustment of brightness.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the obesity rate in elementary school students in Daejeon and the relevant factors such as social-demographical factors, genetic factors, birth factors, diet factors and intelligence factors. Methods: For the research, 443 fourth grade students, 405 fifth grade students and 417 sixth grade students from six elementary schools in Daejeon Metropolitan City Participated in this study and classified into three groups: normal-weight group, mild obesity group, and moderate or severe obesity group. Results: The total obesity rate of the elementary school students in the school district of Daejeon Metropolitan City was 14.2%; the rate of mild obesity was 7.2%; the rate of moderate obesity was 5.5%; and the rate of severe obesity was 1.5%. The obesity rate of surveyed boys was 16.9%, and the obesity rate of girls was 11.1%. The significant factors for girls' obesity were fathers' EMI, mothers' EMI, living standards, constant demand of foods, preference for greasy foods, frequency of eating snacks, and daily walking hours. It was found that students' subjective mind and objective health index were related to obesity. In the case of obese students, they had more concern about their health and more stress from the dissatisfaction of their physical appearance than normal students. Conclusions: From the above evidences, it is apparent that the obesity of elementary school students has strong relations with eating habits rather than physical activities. It is to be hoped that obesity prevention programs such as effective meal guidance. parental guidance for watching TV, and intense physical activities will be included in the curriculums of health education for elementary school students.

This Study is to propose the resonable management for cancer patients by identifying correlation among the treatment, their length of hospital stay and medical charges. Research subjbject is 144 patient that breast cancer, uterine cancer and Family Medical patients of inpatients in K University Hospital in Korea during six month, from January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2010. The analysis shows that the emergecy is superior range thag outpatient because each of them has 97.9%, 2.1% by looking at the path to admission. And the age of 40-49 is the higest group by age. When matrix components of breast cancer patients, principal component is composed of two axes. Factors associated with the first component appeared correlations between all variables without the age. Following results, this study is considered similar types of disease or treatments are need to introduce the DRG.
