Digital signage in airport is used to provide the flight and airport information to the airport passenger. However, the current digital signage displays one type of contents to all of the airport customers without considering the type of the customer. Thus, the digital signage suffer from the inefficiency problem resulting in lower customer satisfaction. This problem can be solved if we adopt a smart digital signage which can recognize the type of the customer and provide the tailored contents. In this study, we report a smart digital signage using age recognition. Our smart digital signage can recognize the age of the customer in real-time, and provide the tailored contents to the customer. The smart digital signage can improve the airport customer satisfaction and the airport work efficiency by providing the information that is needed by the airport customers.

최근 급격한 경제성장과 고도 산업사회로의 전환에 따라 에너지 수요가 크게 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 석유, 가스 등 화석에너지의 소비량과 온실가스 배출량이 급격히 늘어나고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 화석에너지의 소비와 온실가스 배출을 저감시키기 위해 친환경적인 에너지를 이용하기 위한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 이와 같은 노력 중 하나가 바로 태양열에너지를 이용하는 방법이다. 태양열에너지는 자원 고갈의 우려가 없고, 에너지의 이용 과정에서 공해 물질을 배출하지 않아 대체 에너지원으로 각광을 받고 있다. 하지만 에너지 밀도가 낮고 에너지의 공급이 기상조건에 따라 큰 영향을 받으므로 태양열에너지를 이용하기 위해서는 효율적인 집열시스템이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우수한 열적특성을 가진 탄소나노유체를 히트파이프 작동유체에 적용하여, 태양열 집열기의 효율을 향상시키기 위해 탄소나노유체의 열전도도 및 점도특성을 비교분석하였다. 나노유체는 에탄올에 산화 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(Oxidized Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes, OMWCNTs)를 혼합하고, 초음파 분산하여 제조하였다. 에탄올-산화탄소나노유체의 열전도도와 점도는 저온($10^{\circ}C$), 상온($25^{\circ}C$), 고온($70^{\circ}C$)에서 측정하여 비교분석하였으며, 열전도도는 전기 전도성 유체의 비정상 열선법(Transient Hot-wire Method)을 이용하여 측정하였고, 점도는 회전형 디지털 점도계를 이용하였다. 실험 결과 0.1 vol%의 에탄올-산화탄소나노유체의 열전도도는 기본 유체 대비 33.72%($10^{\circ}C$), 33.14%($25^{\circ}C$), 32.26%($70^{\circ}C$)가 향상되었으며, 점도 또한 기본유체보다 크게 증가하지 않아 히트파이프 작동유체로서 우수한 효과를 나타낼 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 태양열 집열기 히트파이프의 효율 향상을 위한 기초자료로써 유용한 정보를 제공할 것이라 판단된다.

Organic solar cells (OSCs) have intensively studied in recent years due to their advantages such as cost effectiveness and possibility of applications in flexible devices. In spite of the high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 10 %, the OSCs still have a draw back of their low environmental stability due to the oxidization of aluminum cathode and etching of transparent conducting oxide as electrode. To solve these problems, the inverted structured OSCs (I-OSCs) having greatest potential for achieving an improvement of device performances are suggested. Therefore, there are a lot of studies to develope of interface layer based on organic/inorganic materials for the electron transport layer (ETL) and passivation layer, significant advancements in I-OSCs have driven the development of interface functional materials including electron transport layer. Recent efforts to employing 2D/3D zinc oxide (ZnO) based ETL into I-OSCs have produced OSCs with a power conversion efficiency level that matches the efficiency of ~9 %. In this review, the technical issues and recent progress of ZnO based ETL in I-OSCs to enhancement of device efficiency and stability in terms of materials, process and characterization have summarized.

Disease of patient who visited the hospital can cause different symptoms of the disease, depending on the environment and lifestyle. Recent medical services offered in patients has changed in the environment that can be selected for treatment by analyzing the patient according to the disease symptoms. In this paper, we propose an efficient method to manage disease control because the treatment method may change at any patients suffering from the disease according to the patient conditions by grouping the different treatments to patients for disease information. The proposed scheme has a feature that can be ingested by the patient big disease information, as well as to improve the treatment efficiency of the medical treatment the increase patient satisfaction. The proposed sheme can handle big data by clustering of disease information for patients suffering from diseases such as patient consent small groups. In addition, the proposed scheme has the advantage that can be conveniently accessed via a particular keyword, the treatment method according to patient disease information. The experimental results, the proposed method has been improved by 23% in terms of efficiency compared to conventional techniques, disease management time is gained 11.3% improved results. Medical service user satisfaction seen from the survey is to obtain a high 31.5% results.

The value of personal information is increasing with the digital transformation of the 4th Industrial Revolution. The purpose of this study is to analyze the efficiency of personal information protection efforts of 2,000 private companies. It uses a stochastic frontier approach (SFA), a parametric estimation method that measures the absolute efficiency of protective activities. In particular, the personal information activity index is used as an output variable for efficiency analysis, with the personal information protection budget and number of personnel utilized as input variables. As a result of the analysis, efficiency is found to range from a minimum of 0.466 to a maximum of 0.949, and overall average efficiency is 0.818 (81.8%). The main causes of inefficiency include non-fulfillment of personal information management measures, lack of system for promoting personal information protection education, and non-fulfillment of obligations related to CCTV. Policy support is needed to implement safety measures and perform personal information encryption, especially customized support for small and medium-sized enterprises.

투명전극인 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)는 높은 투과도와 낮은 면저항을 가지지만 brittle한 성질로 유연성이 떨어져 플렉서블한 디바이스에 적용하기에는 어려움이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 ITO를 대체할 수 있는 CNT, Graphene, AgNW, 전도성 고분자 투명전극이 연구되어지고 있다. 투명전극 중에서도 AgNW는 용액공정으로 제조 단가가 비교적 저렴하며, 높은 투과도와 전기전도 특성을 가지는 투명전극으로 주목받고 있는 차세대 투명전극이다. AgNW는 나노와이어가 네트워크를 형성하고 있어 높은 전도성과 광 투과도를 가지지만 내열성이 좋지 않아 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 손상된다. 또한 흡습성의 고분자 물질로 둘러싸여 있기 때문에 내환경성이 좋지 않다는 단점이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 AgNW전극에 플라즈마 처리를 통해서 $250^{\circ}C$ 까지 내열성을 향상시킬 수 있었으며 추가적으로 Overlayer를 형성하여 $300^{\circ}C$까지 열적 안전성을 확보하여 내열성을 향상시켰다. 습도 85%, 온도 $85^{\circ}C$에서 36일간 환경안정성테스트 결과, 기존 AgNW 전극은 저항이 164% 증가한 것에 비해 플라즈마 처리후 Overlayer를 형성한 AgNW는 49% 저항증가로 저항증가율이 3배 이상 감소하여 환경안정성이 향상된 것을 확인하였다. 이는 흡습성 고분자 물질이 플라즈마 처리에 의해 제거되고 Overlayer가 보호막 역할을 하여 산소와 반응하지 않았기 때문으로 판단된다. 플라즈마 처리와 Overlayer를 형성한 AgNW 전극을 적용하여 투명히터를 제작한 결과 유연 기판상 투명히터로 활용이 가능함을 확인하였고 내열성이 향상되어 높은 전압에서도 안정적인 구동을 보였다. 이를 투명히터 뿐만 아니라 다양한 디바이스에 적용한다면 보다 높은 효율을 기대할 수 있을 것이라 예상된다.

In the characteristics of CMMI architectures and components, there are many relations among CMMI practices. The organizations can be more efficiently improving their processes if they understand relationship among CMMI practices. However, there are no researches regarding this topic yet. In this paper we analyzed the relationship between Generic Practices and Specific Practices of each process areas in CMMI Maturity Level 2 by using Chi-square test of independence. As a result, we demonstrated that 10 Generic Practices in each process area are related 17 out of 48 Specific Practices (35% relationship). Using this result to improve the organization's processes, we achieved a significant improvement of 36.5% in CMMI appraisal result.

The purpose of this study is to estimate efficiency of agricultural business corporations using Data Envelopment Analysis. A proposed method employs a bootstrapping approach to generate efficiency estimates through Monte Carlo simulation re-sampling process. The technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency, and scale efficiency measure of the corporations is 0.749 0.790, 0.948 respectively. Among the 692 agricultural business corporations, the number of Increasing Returns to Scale (IRS)-type corporations was analyzed to be 539(77.9%). The number of Constant Returns to Scale (CRS)-type corporations was 108(15.6%), and that of Decreasing Returns to Scale (DRS)-type corporations was 45(6.5%). Since an increase in input is lower than an increase in output in IRS, an increase in input factors such as new investments is required. The Tobit model suggests that the type of corporation, capital level, and period of operation affect the efficiency score more than others. The positive coefficient of capital level and period of operation variable indicates that efficiency score increases as capital level and period of operation increases.
