The importance of combat drones has been highlighted through the recent outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war. The combat drones play a significant role as a a game changer that alters the conventional wisdom of traditional warfare. Many pundits expect the role of combat swarm drones would be more crucial in the future warfare. In this regard, this paper aims to analyze the development of artificial intelligence-enabled combat swarm drones. To transform the human-operated swarm drones into fully autonomous weaponry system our suggestions are as follows. Developments of (1) AI algorithms for optimized swarm drone operations, (2) decentralized command and control system, (3) inter-drones' mission analysis and allocation technology, (4) enhanced drone communication security and (5) set up of ethical guideline for the autonomous system. Specifically, we suggest the development of AI algorithms for drone collision avoidance and moving target attacks. Also, in order to adjust rapidly changing military environment, decentralized command and control system and mission analysis allocation technology are necessary. Lastly, cutting-edging secure communication technology and concrete ethical guidelines are essential for future AI-enabled combat swarm drones.

Evalution of counter drone systems is conducted in order to designate plausible countermeasues against possible drone threats, assess the level of safety of national major facilities and derive complementary measures for detected weakness. Recently drone threats by North Korea have heavily impacted ROK(Republic of Korea) people and it has been stronly stressed to build efficient counter drone system for make the society protected and secured against drone threats. The researchers has conducted field investigations for some of national major facilites. There is, however, no standardized evaluation checklist, so we have proposed an evaluation checklist for counter drone systems though thinking process of RMA(Revolution in Military Affairs). This paper is to introduce the evaluation checklist for properly diagnosing each counter drone system.

This paper aims to investigate the causal relationship between geopolitical risk and stock price volatility in the shipping industry. Given its international nature and dependence on global trade, this industry is exposed to various uncertainties and risk factors. This study specifically focuses on the impact of geopolitical risk, which has gained significant attention in recent years due to events such as the Russia-Ukraine War and the Israel-Hamas War. To analyze this relationship, the study utilizes vector autoregressive model-based causality tests. The research estimates the causal relationship between geopolitical risk indicators and the stock price volatility of five shipping companies listed on the Korea Exchange. The study covers the period from 2000 to 2023. The results indicate the following: Firstly, an increase in geopolitical risk leads to a rise in stock price volatility for shipping companies. Moreover, the impact of actual geopolitical events, rather than just diplomatic disputes, is statistically significant. Lastly, the impact of geopolitical risk is particularly significant in the bulk shipping sector.

In 2022, we can see the real estate market in Korea going down. Corona 19 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine are cited as the biggest causes for this. These two problems ignited the economic recession, causing prices to fall and subsequently raising exchange rates and interest rates. Due to the aforementioned problems in the previously active real estate market, the number of actual transactions has decreased, resulting in a decline in the real estate market due to high interest rates. Data provided by the public data portal, KOSIS, and the Seoul Metropolitan Government were collected through Logstash, transferred to Elasticsearch, and visualized inflation, exchange rates, and loan interest rates using the dashboard function provided by Kibana, to analyze causes and derive results. In addition, three specific apartments in Nowon-gu and Jongno-gu, which have the highest number of actual transactions in Seoul, are selected and the actual transaction prices that change every month are displayed in the Data Table.

Anti-drone (anti-drone) is at the center of the debate over the failure to shoot down a North Korean drone that invaded the metropolitan area at the end of 2022. Anti-drone is a means of detecting and restraining drone flights in unauthorized airspace. Anti-drone technology is a key defense system for drone technology that is essential in the current illegal situation of various drones. We must be alert in the war in Ukraine, where the role of drones has increased. Drone attacks, which are not easy to defend, may determine the victory or defeat of the war. Competition for anti-drone technology development in countries around the world will rise. When new anti-drone technology emerges, drones that go beyond it will be developed. This study presented the current status of anti-drone by analyzing the defense system of domestic drones.

Nation-state social engineering attacks are steadily being carried out as they are highly effective attacks, primarily to gain an advantage over secret information, diplomatic negotiations or future policy changes. As The Ukraine-Russia war prolongs, the activities of global hacking organizations are steadily increasing, and large-scale cyberattack attempts against major infrastructure or global companies continue, so a countermeasure strategy is needed. To this end, we determined that the social engineering attack cycle excluding physical contact among various social engineering models is the most suitable model, and analyzed the preferred social engineering attack method by comparing it with geopolitical tactics through case analysis. AS a result China favors phishing attacks, which prefer quantity over quality, such as man-made tactics, Russia prefers covert and complex spear phishing reminiscent of espionage warfare, and North Korea uses geopolitical tactics such as spear phishing and watering holes for attacks on the US and South Korea Most of the other countries aimed to secure funds with ransomware. Accordingly, a Clean Pass policy for China, periodic compulsory education in Russia, and international sanctions against North Korea were presented as countermeasure strategies.

최근 온실가스 감축과 기후변화 그리고 녹색성장에 대한 관심증대와 더불어 시멘트 분야의 연구 생산분야는 천연자원 사용량을 줄이고, 소성공정을 도입하지 않은 새로운 개념의 무기바인더가 다시 고개를 들고 있다. 다른 용어로는 비소성, 무시멘트 등으로 표현되기도 하는데, 광의의 개념으로 보면 알칼리 활성화제를 사용한 비소성 무기결합재인 지오폴리머가 바로 그것이다. 지오폴리머 결합재는 1957년 우크라이나의 토목공학회에서 개발한 알칼리 활성 슬래그시멘트에 기원을 두고 있고, 1970년대 말 프랑스의 다비도비치에 의해 지오폴리머라는 용어가 처음 사용되기 시작했다. 알칼리 활성 무기결합재(Alkali-activated inorganic binder)의 정의이다. Alkali-activated inorganic binder는 원래는 결합능력이 없던 재료에 대해서 Alkali-activating 용액을 첨가했을 때, 시멘트처럼 결합능력을 가지게 되는 모든 종류의 결합시스템을 말한다. 국내에도 이미 2000년 초부터 지오폴리머의 개념을 도입한 제품이 상업화되어 오랫동안 품질검증을 거쳐 안정성이 확인되고 있다. 최근에 다시 전남대가 그 동안의 연구성과를 발 빠르게 중소기업에 기술 이전하여 소위 무시멘트 시대에 진입하는 분위기이다. 지난 9월 동아에스텍(주)과 조인트벤처 설립을 위해 손을 잡았고, 사업화가 곧 진행될 것으로 보인다. 이를 계기로 국내에도 무시멘트회사가 본격적으로 등장하게 된 것이다. 따라서 본 고는 무시멘트의 개념을 잘 표현한 문헌으로 일본콘크리트공학 연차논문집, 2010년 1월호를 번역 요약 발췌한 것이다.

Witnessing current military conflicts in South China Sea and Eastern Europe, most defense analysts evaluate one of the most serious security threat toward the US is coming from the superpower competitions with Russia and China. The main means for such super power hegemonic competitions is military power and space power is a key enabler to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of military employment. Reflecting above circumstances, the space hegemonic competition between the Unites States and China is spreading into all aspects of national powers. Under such an environment, R.O.K needs to significantly develop national space power to preserve life and assets of people in space. On the other hand, the R.O.K has a lot of limitations in launching space assets into orbits by land-based space rockets due to its geographic locations. The limitation of rocket launching direction, the failure to secure a significant area enough to secure safety and the limitation to secure open area enough to build associated facilities are among them. On this paper, I will suggest the need to build the 2nd space rocket launching site after analyzing a lot of short-falls the current 'Naro' space center face, compared to those of advanced space powers around the world.
