In this paper, a distributed evacuation system based on the positioning information of subway passengers is proposed. Recently, the subway station is becoming complicated by combining with shopping malls, and movie theaters. Compared to the increasing complexity of subway stations, evacuation systems are less complex. Subway passengers in each cell were estimated to use the access point in the subway cells and statistics information. The evacuation route is provided through a direction indicator and push alarm of a smart phone based on estimated the number of passengers and exit information of the subway station. Based on this schemes, a quick and safe evacuation system of subway passengers was proposed. The number of connection passengers was estimated using AP with OpenWrt embedded OS installed. The average error rate of the number of passenger was confirmed to be 15%, 17% and 23% at the confidence parameter of $1{\sigma}$, $2{\sigma}$, and $3{\sigma}$, respectively, through a simulation. The possibility of the system through a simple experiment was examined.

This paper describes the development of a network-based passenger information system(PIS) which provides the convenience of the passenger of the train and heightens the effect of the subtitle service, the advertising and the shelter guidance broadcasting against the urgent event. The existing system uses VGA signal distributor in order to broadcast information with image and subtitle and voice guidance. In this paper we improve the existing system by applying the UDP and TCP/IP protocol and use a reference clock to solve a data loss and synchronization problem which occurs in this case. We also developed an XML-based subtitle authoring tool which can edit and play the subtitles with various 3D to improve the automatic guidance broadcasting and advertisement effect according to the operation schedule of the train. The system performance was evaluated through a simulation.

여객선의 안전은 인명의 안전과 직결되므로 이에 발맞추어 국제해사기구 (International Maritime Organization, IMO)는 빈번히 발생하는 선박의 전복 사고로 인한 인명 피해를 최소화하기 위하여 승객탈출분석 (Passenger Evacuation Analysis) 적용 지침을 꾸준히 개정 및 보완하고 있다. 승객탈출분석의 목적은 설계 단계에서의 탈출 설비의 배치 적합성 판단 및 배치된 탈출 설비를 이용하여 지침 상 규정하는 최대허용탈출시간 (Maximum allowable evacuation duration) 내에 탈출이 가능한 지를 분석하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 승객탈출분석에 관한 지침의 개정 동향 및 최근 개정된 승객탈출분석 지침 (MSC.1/Circ.1533)의 개정 방향에 대하여 소개하고자 한다. 또한 탈출 해석 관점 한국해양과학기술원에서 개발 중인 인명대피안내시스템의 유효성을 검증하기 위하여 2016년 10월 수행 된 인명대피실험과 지침 상 규정하는 고도화 알고리즘 (Advanced algorithm) 기반 승객탈출 시뮬레이션 (Maritime EXODUS)의 비교 결과를 바탕으로 해당 지침 적용 시 고려사항에 대하여 고찰하고자 한다.

Some subway passengers may want to have their fresh vegetables purchased through internet at a service facility within the subway station of the Metropolitan Seoul subway system on the way to home, which raises further questions about which stations are chosen to locate service facilities and how many passengers can use the facilities. This problem is well known as the pickup problem, and it can be solved on a traffic network with traffic flows which should be identified from origin stations to destination stations. Since flows of the subway passengers can be found from the smart card transaction database of the Metropolitan Seoul smart card system, the pickup problem in the Metropolitan Seoul subway system is to select subway stations for the service facilities such that captured passenger flows are maximized. In this paper, we have formulated a model of the pickup problem on the Metropolitan Seoul subway system with subway passenger flows, and have proposed a fast heuristic algorithm to select pickup stations which can capture the most passenger flows in each step from an origin-destination matrix which represents the passenger flows. We have applied the heuristic algorithm to select the pickup stations from a large volume of traffic network, the Metropolitan Seoul subway system, with about 400 subway stations and five millions passenger transactions daily. We have obtained not only the experimental results in fast response time, but also displayed the top 10 pickup stations in a subway guide map. In addition, we have shown that the resulting solution is nearly optimal by a few more supplementary experiments.

It is critical that passengers should be given timely and correct escape or evacuation guidance from captain and crews when there are hazardous situations in a ship. Otherwise the consequences could be disastrous as "SEWOL Ferry" the South Korean passenger ship which sank in southern coastal area on 16th April 2014. Due to the captain's delayed evacuation decision and lack of sufficient number of crews to guide passengers' evacuation, the accident recorded many casualties, most of whom were high school students (302 passengers sank down with the ship while 172 rescued). Building a passenger ship with well-designed physical escape routes is one thing and guiding passengers to those escape routes in real disaster situation is another. Passengers get panic and move to a wrong direction, bottleneck makes situation worse, and even crews get panic also - passive static escape route signage and small number of trained crews might not be enough to take care of them. SESS (Smart Escape Support System) is being developed sponsored by South Korea Ministry of Ocean and Fisheries starting from 2016 with 4 years of roadmap. SESS comprises multiple active dynamic signage devices which communicate with real-time escape routing server software via LoRa (Long Range) proprietary wireless network.

In this paper, we utilize a service provided by the existing bus information system. To improve the limitations of the bus information system the information provided to the passenger using the bus. By applying the IoT sensor network system. congestion information of the bus provided to customer. Provides information in addition to the existing bus congestion information to passengers wishing to use public transport from the smartphone app with an existing information system. The bus congestion information in addition to the existing information to passengers who want to use public transport provided in the existing information system and smartphone apps. Prevent accidents that might occur due to congestion in the bus, efficient and convenient way to propose an improved bus information system for public transport. Developed a prototype system using the IOT sensor network verified the proposed method.

According to multi-functionalizing the faculty of EMU and installing up-to-date convenient facilities in EMU additionally and individually, it make many problems, such as space insufficiency of driver cab, interface inharmony and functional overlapping of device. So it is necessary to unify broadcasting equipment, display equipment and CCTV installed individually.

The Public Address and Passenger Information System of Rolling Stock should be able to perform automatic announcements in connection with TCMS(Train Control and Monitoring System), common announcements and emergency announcements for safe operation and the passengers. CCTV(Closed Circuit Television) System also should be able to watch passenger compartment for safety. Those equipments are very important thing for train service and safety. but the installation of equipment is restricted by space, weight, modulation. therefore, Passenger Information Intergrated System(PIIS) is required to consider economical efficiency, technical trend, expansion and space insufficiency. and system based on IP network has to be considered as new PIIS. so PIIS could meet economical efficiency and expansion. and it could go further and share network with TCMS and others.
