Currently, reticulocyte experimental calculation technology used in clinical laboratories are divided two types: manual and automated. Manual reticulocyte counting using a microscopy lacks accuracy due particularly to its low reproducibility, affecting the accuracy of manual reticulocyte count. Moreover, Automatic blood corpuscle analyzer flow cytometry is difficult to be used in underdeveloped countries and small scale laboratories due to relatively high cost. Therefore, this study tried to find a new method to complement these drawbacks. The aim of this study was to compare the stained reticulocytes count by spectrophotometer and also to analyze the statistics of spectrophotometer and flow cytometer. The same 8 EDTA samples were repeated 36 times to compare the agreement between spectrophotometer and flow cytometer. This study measured the specimen diluted 600 times at 700~780 nm by 10 differences. Wavelength between 710 to 730 by absorbance showed a positive correlation between standard data and test data (r=0.967, p<0.01), presenting a correlation between variables. Statistical analyses of regression for test and standard parametric data, the optimal dilution factor was 600 times. Therefore, this study tried to technical utilizes such as contributing economical for the reticulocyte absorbance apply from the auto spectrophotometer, a monitoring system for the reticulocyte relation anemia, etc. Therefore, more extensive studies, including an auto chemical analyzer application, will be needed.

The reliability of the results of LCC analysis is determined by accurate analytical procedures and energy data from which the uncertainty is removed. Until now, systems that can automatically measure these energy data and produce databases have not been commercialized. Therefore this paper proposes a concept model of an S-LCC platform that can automatically collect and analyze electric energy consumption data of equipment systems using the IOT, which is the core tool in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and operates the equipment system efficiently using the analyzed results. The proposed concept model was developed by the convergence of existing BLCS and IOT and was comprised of five modules: Facility Control Module, LCC Analysis Module, Energy Consumption Control Module, Efficiency Analysis Module, and Maintenance Standard Reestablishment Module. Using the results of LCC analysis deduced from this system, the deterioration condition of an equipment system can be identified in real-time. The results can be used as the baseline data to re-establish standards for the maintenance factor, replacement frequency, and lifetime of existing equipment, and establish new maintenance standards for new equipment. If the S-LCC platform is established, it would increase the reliability of LCC analysis, reduce the labor force for entering data and improve accuracy, and would also change disregarded data into big data with high potential.

On processing of the shipbuilding, Various steel plates are used as the important material in many fields including the shell plate, a structure, etc. Therefore, the proper steel plate management system like a warehousing, pile, delivery is very important. Presently Operators manage the steel plate by using the software program, but they manage many parts manually, so many problems are generated on the steel plate check, management, and operator safety. In order to solve this problem, we developed Auto Steel-Plate Piling System. Also this system automatically manages and traces the steel-plate from warehousing to delivery.

As Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are increasingly used to implement safety critical systems such as nuclear instrumentation & control system, formal verification for PLC based programs is becoming essential. This paper proposes a formal verification technique for PLC program implemented with function block diagram (FBD). In order to verify an FBD program, we translate an FBD program into a Verilog model and perform model checking using SMV model checker We developed a tool, FBD Verifier, which translates FBD programs into Verilog models automatically and supports efficient and intuitive visual analysis of a counterexample. With the proposed approach and the tool, we verified large FBD programs implementing reactor protection system of Korea Nuclear Instrumentation and Control System R&D Center (KNICS) successfully.

Although navigation systems and automatic identification technologies are in use for nautical safety of ocean vessels, ship collisions are increasing due to the growing number of overseas transportations. Since these accidents are mostly caused by the watch officers and crews' human mistakes, it is essential to develop a new set of systems to prevent such misfortunes. Therefore, we suggest a control and management system which monitors crews in order to conduct secure on-board navigation and nautical safety. We also materialized a mobile terminal system and portable device for the crews to check the status of the ship, and we designed a platform for an integrated surveillance system to assure a harmless voyage. Lastly, we attested the mutual connections of integrated safety-related data.

For the purpose of maintenance and prevention of earth fill dams against damage from natural hazards, automatic monitoring through various measuring instruments and resistivity survey has been carried out. Reservoirs and embankments have the structural vulnerability on the agricultural usages since most of them were built more than thirty years ago. The main aim to use monitoring method is to verify the safety and integrity of the dam. Resistivity survey can detect potential weaknesses, such as defective zones, anomalous seepages or internal erosion processes. Permanent resistivity monitoring systems were installed at a reservoir, which daily measurements have been taken every 6 hour. Using monitoring data for one year, anomalous seepage and structural defects were clarified for dam safety. Annual water level fluctuations are around 10 m. During their operation, reservoir dams are subject to a never-ending hydraulic load from the reservoir, which over the years may cause changes in the properties of the inner parts of the dam construction. Detailed analysis of the monitoring results was performed and showed that resistivities at most locations have been very stable over the full monitoring period excluding the effects of water fluctuation and seasons. To investigate the detectability of weak zone using the DC resistivity monitoring, numerical modeling with a simplified model for the drainage at a reservoir dam was also performed. The results showed that the seepage zone near drainage in a reservoir dam could be detected by resistivity response change.

Optical fiber cable, as a sensor, was installed on the wall of KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) Underground Research Tunnel(KURT) in order to monitor the physical stability of the tunnel, which was constructed for technical development and demonstration of radioactive waste disposal. This monitoring system has two simultaneous measurements of temperature and strain over time using Brillouin backscatter. According to the results of the monitoring from Jan. 2008 to Nov. 2009, there is no significant displacement or movement at the tunnel wall However, the cumulative volume of total strain increased slightly as time passes with the comparison of the reference observation, which was measured in Jan. 2008. The change in cumulative volume of total strain indicates that the strain level had been affected by saturation and de-saturation phenomena due to groundwater fluctuation at several points at KURT. This system is based on the distributed sensing technique concept, not point sensing. By using this system, a displacement can be detected with the range from $20{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ to $28,000{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ every 1m interval in minimum. A temperature variation can be monitored at every 0.5m interval with the resolution of 0.01 in minimum. Based on the study, this monitoring system is potentially applicable to long term monitoring systems for radioactive waste disposal project as well as other structures and underground openings.
