지금까지의 정보통신 서비스는 사용자에게 필요한 정보를 제공하거나 사용자와 사용자를 연결해주는 통로로서의 서비스를 제공하여 왔으나, 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅과 유비쿼터스 네트워크 기술을 기반으로 한 유비쿼터스 서비스는 사용자가 처한 상황에 기반하여 정보 제공은 물론 필요한 행위까지도 제공하여 사용자의 욕구에 가장 근접한 서비스 제공에 초점을 두는 컨시어지형 서비스가 될 것이다. 이러한 서비스는 사용자의 기호 및 상태, 또는 상황 등의 다양한 정보에 근거하여 서비스를 제공할 수 있어야 하며, 이를 위한 효과적인 접근 방법으로는 사용자의 다양한 정보를 각각의 대리자에게 처리를 하게 하는 멀티 에이전트 기술일 것이다. 본 연구에서는 음악이나 그림을 활용하여 신체적, 정신적 질환을 치료하는 음악 치료나 그림 치료인 Art-Therapy를 유비쿼터스 서비스의 구현 사례로 기술한다. 사용자의 신체적 또는 정신적 상태 및 환경 정보를 센서를 활용하여 측정하고 그 측정된 데이터에 근거하여 사용자의 상태를 판단하고 이에 따라 음악 및 미술 작품을 시청각으로 제공함으로써 치료 효과를 얻는다. 본 연구에서의 Art-Therapy 서비스는 FIPA에서 제안한 멀티 에이전트 기반 구조인 에이전트 플랫폼을 기반으로 구현하였다.

오늘날의 정보통신 환경은 유비쿼터스 IT기술의 시대로 진입하고 있다. 유비쿼터스는 사용자가 컴퓨터나 네트워크를 의식하지 않은 상태에서 시간과 장소에 구애받지 않고 자유롭게 네트워크에 접속 할 수 있는 정보와 환경을 의미한다. u-Health(Ubiquitous-Health)는 의료 및 국민 복지에서 떠오르는 분야이며 기존의 의료서비스와는 달리 사용자가 간편하고 언제 어디서나 사용될 수 있는 시스템이다. 기존 u-Health 시스템은 사용자가 착용한 센서로부터 신체 데이터를 제공받고, 제공 받은 데이터로 사용자가 현재 어떠한 상태인지를 파악한다. 그러나 센서로부터 제공받은 신체데이터는 무선통신으로 인한 데이터의 손실 및 오류가 발생하게 된다. 이러한 단점을 극복하고 정확한 환자의 상태를 판단하기 위한 방법으로 온톨로지 기반의 상황인식을 적용하여 기존의 u-Health 시스템 보다 더욱 신뢰성 있는 u-Health 시스템을 구축하고자 한다.

We present a new interactive technique for directing the motion sequences of an animated character by dragging its specific body part to a desired location in the three-dimensional virtual environment via a hand motion tracking device. The motion sequences of our character is synthesized by reordering subsequences of captured motion data based on a well-known graph representation. For each new input location, our system samples the space of possible future states by unrolling the graph into a spatial search tree, and retrieves one of the states at which the dragged body part of the character gets closer to the input location. We minimize the difference between each pair of successively retrieved states, so that the user is able to anticipate which states will be found by varying the input location, and resultantly, to quickly reach the desired states. The usefulness of our method is demonstrated through experiments with breakdance, boxing, and basketball motion data.

This study tried to identify the factors that affect the participation of national pension beneficiaries in economic activities. Data from the 8th KReIs main survey were used for the study subjects, and the number of subjects was 919. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and regression analysis were performed using SPSS 20.0. As a result, gender, age, marital status, residential area, physical health status, and mental health status showed differences in economic activity participation. Participation in economic activities was correlated with gender, age, marital status, physical health status, and psychological health status. As factors influencing the participation in economic activities of national pension recipients, it was found that gender, age, education level, residential area, and physical health had an effect on economic activity participation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of physical health status and social support on depression and quality of life among the elderly in G City. This is a descriptive research study of 497 elderly residents in 45 senior citizen centers in G city; the data were collected from March 5 to 30, 2018. Data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS/win 24.0 program by t-test, ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. In physical health status, the chronic disease score was $1.35{\pm}0.91$, the functional status score was $1.80{\pm}4.45$, and the subjective health score was $3.14{\pm}1.13$. The average score for social support in the emotional network was $5.71{\pm}1.13$. In the sub-region of the social network, the score for frequency of contact with relatives was $2.92{\pm}1.31$, that for contact with friends was $3.18{\pm}0.98$, and that for social participation was $0.68{\pm}0.82$. In the multiple regression analysis of factors affecting depression and quality of life, the explanatory power of physical health status and quality of life was 45.5% and 21.1%, respectively. The explanatory power of depression based on social support and quality of life was 46.7% and 27.5%, respectively. This study indicates that physical health status and social support affect depression and quality of life. Therefore, programs should be developed to increase the physical health status and social support and thus improve the quality of life of the elderly in the community.

This study was conducted to compare and analyse work-related injuries, physical and mental health status of nurses according to working environment. The subjects were 192 nurses working at a university hospital in Seoul. After analyzing each categories of health status by working environment and work-related injuries, meaningful differences were found physical and mental health status. And shift work was significantly related to work-related injuries compared to non-shift work. In addition, it was confirmed that nurses have negative influences from night work in physical and mental health compared to other work pattern. Thus, it would be necessary to improve working system with considering their health problems caused by working environment and work-related injuries. And we will have to be a study for effective night work and additional support for night workers.

The purpose of this study is to analyse the satisfaction level and psychological status of senior students of "Silver College," or seniors' college. For the analysis, questionnaire survey was conducted to senior students of Silver Colleges of B and K University in Busan from May 1 through 31, 2013. The analysis methods used are SPSS Win 18.0 program on analysis of frequency, one-way analysis of variance, a correlation analysis, simple regression analysis and multiple regression analysis, with analysis of actual proof for 5% significance level. The result of analysis indicates that the senior students' satisfaction level rose and serious physical symptoms improved after taking silver college programs from before. This study is significant in that it provides theoretical grounds for increasing the number of silver colleges with professional and socially-renowned professors as faculty, and developing further programs and policies for the solution of aggravating physical and mental problems more and more senior people are faced with in this fast aging society.

Using complex sample design, this article analyzes the difference between sex and age groups of mental health, physical activity, suffering lifestyle diseases, drinking, and smoking using the fifth Korea national health and nutrition examination survey data (2011-2012), and then analyzes the effect of mental health, physical activity, suffering lifestyle diseases, drinking, and smoking on EQ-5D, a measure of health-related quality of life. The results show that mental health, physical activity, suffering lifestyle diseases, drinking and smoking are statistically different among gender and age groups, and that age group, education level, suffering diabetes, recognizing stress, thinking suicide are statistically influential on EQ-5D.
