In this paper, an efficiency improvement method in the wireless power transfer system based on magnetic resonance is proposed. A combined helical-spiral structure is adopted for self-resonant coil and source and device coils are designed using circular loop structure. The proposed resonator utilizing combined helical-spiral structure yields 13 % efficiency improvement over that of an existing helical type resonator when the transmitting and receiving coils are separated by 120 mm. In addition, the size can be reduced by 33 % comparing to the previous resonator.

Topological maps have drawn more attention recently because they are compact, provide natural interfaces, and are applicable to path planning easily. To build a topological map incrementally, Voronoi diagram was used by many researchers. The Voronoi diagram, however, has difficulty in applying to arbitrarily shaped objects and needs long computation time. In this paper, we present a new method for global topological map from the local topological maps incrementally. The local topological maps are created through a thinning algorithm from a local grid map, which is built based on the sensor information at the current robot position. A thinning method requires simpler computation than the Voronoi diagram. Localization based on the topological map is usually difficult, but additional nodes created by the thinning method can improve localization performance. A series of experiments have been conducted using a two-wheeled mobile robot equipped with a laser scanner. It is shown that the proposed scheme can create satisfactory topological maps.

In recent years, social awareness and concern about the SNS is getting a lot and many researches on the social impact of the SNS and variety strategies using SNS have emerged one after another. In this paper, we explain the method of interlocking between SNS and variety sensors in physical computing environment. Especially we propose that interlocking technology between sensors and twitter in Arduino platform(open source environment) can be used for the handicapped people. We design a way to send message via twitter for handicapped people using values from various sensors.

The artificial intelligence, robot technology, Internet of things, and life sciences that create added value while dramatically transforming human life have been highlighted in the fourth industrial revolution, the next industrial revolution. In order to adapt to the 4th industry, it is necessary to educate students to develop fusion thinking and computing thinking ability. Therefore, in this study, we developed a digital Yut Playing system based on physical computing, reflecting STEAM and decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithm design, which are components of computing thinking. By experiencing the developed system and applying it to education, it raised interest and interest in programming education and improved programming lesson for fusion thinking and computing thinking ability.

This current study employs multi-year design-based research to design and implement a course in teacher education in Korea. Specifically this paper reports our first attempt to work with 3 primary in-service teachers majoring in computer education. We have incorporated design thinking (DT) into the course design and investigated how primary teachers appreciate the role of DT and recognize the connection between teaching computational thinking and DT. This qualitative study reports the course design, its progression, reflections, and learning outcomes.

컴퓨팅 환경이 무선과 휴대용 시스템으로 변화하면서, 전력효율이 점점 중요해지고 있다. 특히 내장형 시스템일 경우에 더욱 그러한데 이중 메모리에서 소모되는 전력이 전체 전력소모의 두 번째 큰 요소가 되고 있다. 메모리 시스템에서의 전력소모를 줄이기 위해서 DRAM의 저전력 모드인 냅모드(nap mode)를 활용할 수 있다. 냅모드는 액티브 모드(active mode)일 때의 $28\%$의 전력만을 소모한다. 하지만 하드웨어 컨트롤러는 운영체제가 협조하지 않으면 이 기능을 효율적으로 활용하지 못한다. 이 논문에서는 DRAM의 액티브 유닛(active unit)의 수를 최소화하는 방법에 초점을 맞춘다. 운영체제는 참조되지 않는 메모리를 냅모드에 놓음으로써 최소한의 유닛들만을 액티브 모드에 놓아 프로그램이 수행될 수 있도록 피지컬(physical) 페이지들을 할당한다. 이것은 PAVM(Power Aware Virtual Memory) 연구의 일반화된 시스템 전반에 대한 연구라고 할 수 있다. 우리는 모든 피지컬 메모리를 고려하고 있으며, 특히 평균적으로 전체 메모리의 절반을 사용하는 버퍼 캐시를 고려하고 있다. 버퍼 캐시의 용량과 그 중요성 때문에 PAVM 방식은 버퍼 캐시를 고려하지 않고는 완전한 해법이 되지 못한다. 이 논문에서 우리는 메모리의 사용처를 분석하고 저전력 페이지 할당 정책을 제안한다. 특히 프로세스의 주소공간에 매핑(mapping)된 페이지들과 버퍼 캐시가 고려된다. 이 두 종류의 페이지들간의 상호작용과 그 관계를 분석하고 저전력을 위해 이러한 관계를 이용한다.

The purpose of this study is to explore ways to improve the quality of real-time video lectures in a non-face-to-face environment using IPA (Importance-Performance Analysis). Recently, due to the impact of COVID-19 in universities, all remote classes are being implemented, so research is needed to raise learner awareness. Accordingly, factor analysis, mean analysis, correspondence analysis, and IPA analysis were performed based on the data of 632 students who responded from March 21 to June 30, 2021 for learners of K University in Chungbuk. First, overall satisfaction was low compared to importance, and the difference in system perception was the largest. Second, the difference in learner perception of real-time video lectures through the IPA matrix showed that the system error and screen cutoff were the largest. Third, the difficulty of lecture content, task and test feedback, etc. are classified. Accordingly, the satisfaction of real-time video lectures in non-face-to-face environments is low, suggesting that school-level support for quality improvement to improve learner satisfaction in non-face-to-face environments and the role of instructors are needed to improve learners' academic achievement.

More and more universities are enforcing SW education for non-major undergraduates. However, they are experiencing difficulties in educating non-major students to understand computational thinking processes. In this paper, we did not use the mathematical operation problem to solve this problem. And we proposed a basic problem-solving process teaching method based on computational thinking using simple physical devices. In the proposed educational method, we teach a LED circuit using an Arduino board as an example. And it explains the problem-solving process with computational thinking. Through this, students learn core computational thinking processes such as abstraction, problem decomposition, pattern recognition and algorithms. By applying the proposed methodology, students can gain the concept and necessity of computational thinking processes without difficulty in understanding and analyzing the given problem.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships among self-leadership, communication and team efficacy of nursing students participating in integrated simulation training courses. Methods: Participants were 124 nursing students from the two different schools. Data were collected from December 2018 through January of 2019 and analyzed using t-test, ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficients. Results: Self-leadership, communication and team efficacy were significantly different according to satisfaction of major, satisfaction of simulation course and satisfaction of leadership. Also significant correlations were found among self-leadership, communication and team efficacy. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that education programs based on simulation courses should be developed to promote self-leadership, communication and team efficacy of nursing students. A diverse simulation curriculum to improve the practical skills of nursing students needs to be developed.

This study analyzed the effects on system quality, learning commitment, and satisfaction in a mobile environment. A survey was conducted on 192 students enrolled in K University, and the research results are as follows. first, it was found that usefulness had an effect on learning commitment, but connectivity and reliability did not affect learning commitment. second, it was found that the usefulness and connectivity of the system quality had a significant effect on the satisfaction of use. third, the intermediary effect of learning immersion was verified as the connectivity, reliability, and usefulness of the system quality influence the satisfaction of use. connectivity and reliability had no mediating effect of learning commitment, and usefulness was found to play a partial mediating role in affecting user satisfaction. This study is meaningful in that it can provide a plan for improving the quality management of mobile learning and improving the learning effect by analyzing the effects on mobile learning from multiple perspectives.
