With recent development in information technology, IT convergence has been achieved ubiquitously in all areas of industry. In particular, there have been a lot of changes in medical IT conversion sector in terms of user service. In this regard, this paper attempts to propose an environment in which the existing paper prescription can be transferred in the form of QR codes using mobile handsets as one of practices from the perspective of user service. QR codes can minimize the burden resulting from the process of the output, delivery and storage of paper prescriptions. In addition, they can utilize the representation of the information in a wide variety of ways, and they are considered to be media that can minimize the risk of personal information exposure and falsification due to the restoration and encryption of the information. Accordingly, the application of QR codes to the medical field is expected to improve confidentiality ad storage capability of the information, along with users' convenience.

Curriculum can represent the identity of University as an important factor, and especially university has sole power to design and manage his curriculum. So, the information literacy curriculum which teach students to create, store, communicate their knowledge is very important position in the liberal arts curriculum. Thus, this study designs the reference model as 3-dimensional cubic model for information literacy curriculum to help curriculum designers design, manage, and evaluate it. For developing this model, I researched many books and web sites about some of domestic and U.S. universities' curriculums, and made up some questionnaires about students' satisfaction and the direction of information literacy education. An information literacy curriculum was designed using this reference model and lots of students are satisfied with this curriculum after activating in this class. Designed cubic reference model which has a characteristic to expose flexible and systematic context representation in the university curriculum can guide researchers to design, manage, and evaluate information literacy curriculum.

All learners have to improve problem-solving abilities based on the principles of Computer Science and Computational Concepts as well as enhance their information technology fluency for living in the 21st century. However, there are no clear answers for fundamental questions such as 'What is Computer Science?' or 'What is the nature of Informatics education?'. Informatics education is threatened by the terminological confusion and misleading external images of Computer Science or Informatics education. Therefore, in this study, we closely reviewed perspectives on the nature and necessity of Informatics education and suggested a perspective to improve Informatics education. First, we examined how the definition of Computer Science has changed and pointed out that the Computer Science curriculum has operated differently from country to country because of the different viewpoints about Computer Science. Moreover, we presented evidence to assert that Informatics education should be considered as an independent science subject that is for all students. Finally, we suggested essential elements to insist that Informatics is a discipline to improve computational thinking. Essential elements consisted of 'Representations', 'Processes', 'Machines', 'Relationships' and 'Construction'. We suggested that the concept of Informatics should be extended based on these five elements.

PID 제어는 50년의 역사를 갖기 때문에 현장의 사용자는 이 제어방식에 익숙해져 있으며, 제어장치의 구성이 간단하며 제어기의 최적동조가 가능하므로 많은 분야에서 사용되고 있다[1]. 그러나 PID 제어기에 의해서 얻은 결과에 대하여 만족하기 위해서는 많은 시행착오를 겪어야 한다. 또한 만족하는 결과를 얻었다고 할지라도 외란, 플랜트의 동특성이 바뀌는 경우 시스템을 추종하지 못하기 때문에 파라미터를 재조정하여야 한다. 유전 알고리즘은 자연세계의 진화 현상에 기초한 계산모델로서 John Holland에 의해서 1975년에 개발된 전역적인 최적화 알고리즘이며[1][2], 비선형 고차원, 불연속, 다중모드, 노이즈 함수 등에 대하여 강건함을 보여주고, 복잡한 탐색 공간에서 최적 값을 스스로 발견하는 학습 능력을 갖는다. 이 방법은 재생산, 교배, 돌연변이를 통하여 최적해를 찾은 방법으로 1989년에 D. E. Goldgerg에 의해서 체계적으로 정리된 후 여러 분야에서 응용되고 있다[3][4]. 그러나 유전 알고리즘은 목적함수만을 이용하여 해집단을 탐색하기 때문에 숙련운전자가 원하는 제어 특성 명세인 상승시간, 정착시간, 초과량(oveshoot) 둥을 구체적으로 명시하여 제어에 반영할 수 없다. 또한, 유전 알고리즘은 입력 값이 크게 바뀔 경우 다른 시스템으로 인식하여 새로운 탐색을 수행하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 첫째, 기준모델을 도입하여 플랜트의 성능을 기준모델로 표현하여 플랜트가 요구하는 성능지표를 정량적으로 규정하는 것이 가능하였다. 또한, 이것은 미지 플랜트 동특성을 식별하기 위한 신호로 사용되어, 플랜트의 정보를 얻는데 이용되었다. 즉, 기준모델과 플랜트 출력사이의 추종 오차 정보가 적응기구인 PID 유전제어기의 입력으로 사용되며, 구형파 입력의 경우에도 기준모델과 플랜트의 출력차는 크게 변하지 않는다. 따라서, 유전 알고리즘의 목적함수에 기준 모델을 제안 적용하여 안정적이고, 세밀한 제어를 수행하였다. 둘째, PID의 간단하면서 확실한 제어가 가능하다는 점과 전역적인 최적값을 찾을 수 있는 유전 알고리즘을 적용하여 고속제어를 요하는 직류 서보 모터(DC Servo Motor) 운전 시 실시간 파라미터 동조에 적용하였다.

The error diffusion method is one of the digital halftoning processes that transforms the continuous-tone image to the binary image and the method has the excellent reproduction ability. However the error diffusion method using the permanent threshold has difficulty in proper binarization, so the method has the periodic pattern and is unpleasant to the eye. In this paper, to reduce defects and to binarize properly, we propose the error diffusion method using the adaptive threshold. Depending on the intensity distribution of the input gray scale image, we decided on the adaptive threshold with the average of the intensities. The error diffusion method with the adaptive threshold has the better performance than the existing method and is evaluated with experiments and comparisons.

Caption information in news videos can be useful for video indexing and retrieval since it usually suggests or implies the contents of the video very well. In this paper, a new algorithm for extracting and recognizing characters from news video is proposed, without a priori knowledge such as font type, color, size of character. In the process of text region extraction, in order to improve the recognition rate for videos with complex background at low resolution, continuous frames with identical text regions are automatically detected to compose an average frame. The image of the averaged frame is projected to horizontal and vertical direction, and we apply region filling to remove backgrounds to produce the character. Then, K-means color clustering is applied to remove remaining backgrounds to produce the final text image. In the process of character recognition, simple features such as white run and zero-one transition from the center, are extracted from unknown characters. These feature are compared with the pre-composed character feature set to recognize the characters. Experimental results tested on various news videos show that the proposed method is superior in terms of caption extraction ability and character recognition rate.

호흡기 바이러스 감염은 모든 연령층의 천식에 상당한 영향을 미치는 데 영아에서 RSV는 천명을 야기하고 대부분 일시적이나 재발성 일수도 있다. 어릴 때 바이러스 감염은 면역체계 형성에 영향를 미쳐 알러지와 천식의 위험을 완하할 수있다고 한다. 또한 소아와 성인 천식에서 RV같은 감기 바이러스는 천식의 급성 증상을 유발한다. 호흡기 바이러스 감염에 대한 면역반응이, 기관지로 부터 바이러스 제거 기능외에 기도수축과 호흡기 증상에 관여한다고 한다. 이러한 변화가 일어나는 기전은 호흡기 바이러스가 proinflammatory 사이토카인과 매개체 생성을 유도하는 능력과 연관성이 있는 것 같고 이들이 상하기도 호흡기 증상 및 기도반응 변화에 관여하는 것으로 생각된다. 호흡기 바이러스 감염에 대한 면역반응을 요약하면 바이러스 감염으로 상피세포, 내피세포, 과립백혈구가 활성화되며, 상피세포는 사이토카인, 키모카인, 매개체들을 분비하여 항 면역 반응를 주도하다. 이와 같은 상피세포와 다른 기관지 세포들의 조기 활성화로 내피 세포에 유착분자 표현을 증가시켜 백혈구 동원 증가 및 혈관 투과성을 증가시켜 부종과 분비물을 증가시킨다. 바이러스 또는 바이러스 유발 사이토카인에 의해 활성화된 과립 백혈구, 대식세포, T세포들도 기도염증 증가, 기도폐쇄를 야기하고 기도반응을 증가시킨다. 세포독성 임파구에 의한 바이러스 감염세포의 분해, TGF-$\beta$ IL-10 같은 사이토카인에 의해 부분적으로 염증억제, 기도 remoldeling에 의한 기도구조의 재생등이 바이러스 감염후 기관지 기능의 지속적 변화를 결정한다. 끝으로 천식환자에서 RV 감염의 병인에 관한 기본적 문제는 RV감염이 정상인에서는 경한 증상을 나타내는 데 천식환자에서는 왜 심한 임상증상을 나타내는지 아직 완전히 밝혀지지 않았다. 항 바이러스에 대한 면역반응이 천식환자에서 손상되었는지 또는 천식환자에서 RV감염에 의한 중증의 임상증상은 어떤 다른 세포가 관여하는지? 이들에 대한 답은 기도염증이 천식에서 어떻게 조절되는지 또한 바이러스 감염에 의한 악화된 증상을 어떻게 치료할 것인가에 대한 방향을 제시해줄 것이다.

The Test and Evaluation (T&E) system became more important due to its advancement and complexity of the weapon system. Time and cost saving T&E related studies are in progress mainly with advanced countries. By utilizing the Modeling and Simulation (M&S) technology recently, we may save time and money. Also, overcome security and safety limitations. There are many M&S based research activities in South Korea but it is way behind of the system that some countries already have developed. i.e.; United States. This area of study requires new way of developing strategies in the T&E system of Korea. This study is to design the Operational T&E system for weapon systems based on modeling of processes. And we modeled the processes of operational performance evaluation through utilizing resources and performance modules of weapon systems and combined it with the simulation engine for 3D visualization. Through this, we propose the Operational T&E system for weapon systems based on modeling of processes that represent operational performances visually.

Linked Data is about using the web to link related data that wasn't linked previously. To publish linked data, people should be able to represent, share, and link pieces of data, information, and knowledge by using URIs and RDF. However, building linked data is not easy for the common users who do not know the knowledge or skill about using URIs and RDF. In this paper, we present a system that the common users can create linked data by connecting data originated from different RDFs. They build linked data by adding new links to connect between RDF data saved in their computers or searched from Swoogle. We can apply the proposed system to creating educational contents. For example, teachers can develop various learning contents by building linked data that connects different data suited to the learning level of their students.
