In this paper, a study on a portable hydrogen alarm system based on the palladium coated single mode fiber sensor has been reported. The fabricated hydrogen sensor exhibited 0.14 dB, 0.41 dB and 0.54 dB optical intensity variation when it was exposed by the nitrogen and hydrogen mixed gas containing 0.5 %, 1 % and 4 % of the hydrogen concentration, respectively. The fabricated sensor exhibited 20 second of response time and 120 second of recovery time for 4 % hydrogen containing gas. The fiber optics layout and software algorithm for detection of hydrogen leakage have been presented. The implanted portable hydrogen alarm system successfully generated an alarm signal when a 4 % hydrogen containing gas was leaked out.

This study investigated the development of a fire alarm system with evacuation lighting and voice alarm functions. The performance of a fire detector and system with independently built-in evacuation lighting and voice alarm functions was confirmed for early recognition of fire and to allow visibility of the evacuation route in the event of fire. This new system satisfied model recognition and product testing technological standards with 1.62 lx average illumination, 89.7 dB average sound and 86.1 dB average voice. From additionally testing the evacuation performance of this new system, it was confirmed that the evacuation time decreased by 63.08% to 67.82% under the experimental conditions compared to conventional systems. The new system can minimize fire damage by setting off voice alarms to prevent failure of fire recognition and by flashing emergency lighting to secure the minimum required visibility range for evacuation. Therefore, it is considered that it will be utilized as a fire alarm system with appropriateness and usefulness by considering people with hearing or visual impairment.

These-days technology related to IoT (Internet of Thing) is widely used and there are many types of smart system based IoT like smart health, smart building and so on. In smart health system, it is possible to check someone's health by analyzing data from wearable IoT device like smart watch. Smart building system aims to collect data from sensor such as humidity, temperature, human counter like that and control the building for energy efficiency, security, safety and so forth. Furthermore, smart city system can comprise several smart systems like smart building, smart health, smart mobility, smart energy and etc. In this paper, we propose multimedia IoT based intelligent emergency alarm system for smart city. In existing IoT based smart system, it communicates lightweight data like text data. In the past, due to network's limitations lightweight IoT protocol was proposed for communicating data between things but now network technology develops, problem which is to communicate heavy data is solving. The proposed system obtains video from IP cameras/CCTVs, analyses the video by exploiting AI algorithm for detecting emergencies and prevents them which cause damage or death. If emergency is detected, the proposed system sends warning message that emergency may occur to people or agencies. We built prototype of the intelligent emergency alarm system based on MQTT and assured that the system detected dangerous situation and sent alarm messages. From the test results, it is expected that the system can prevent damages of people, nature and save human life from emergency.

The purpose of this study is to develop a pulsatile drowsiness detection system that can compensate the limitations of existing camera - based or breathing pressure sensor based Drowsiness driving prevention systems. A heart rate sensor mounted on the driver's finger and an alarm system that sounds when drowsiness is detected. The heart rate sensor was used to measure pulse changes in the wrist, and an alarm system based on the Arduino, which works in conjunction with the laptop, generates an audible alarm in the event of drowsiness. In this paper, we assume that the pulse rate of the drowsy state is 60 ~ 65 times / minute, which is the middle between the awake state and the sleep state. As a result of the experiment, the alarm sounded when the driver's pulse rate was in the drowsy pulse rate range. Based on these experiments, the drowsiness detection system was able to detect the drowsiness of the driver successfully in real time. A more effective drowsiness prevention system can be developed in the future by incorporating the results of the present study on a pulse-based drowsiness prevention system in an existing drowsiness prevention system.

최근 급속한 네트워크 기술의 발달로 이들에 대한 관리의 필요성이 제기되었고 이를 위해 SNMP와 CMIP등과 같은 표준이 등장하여 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 점점 더 다양하고 복잡한 네트워크가 형성되자 이들에 대한 효율적인 관리가 필요하게 되었다. 현재, TMN은 개념에 있어서 보편성 및 가장 일반화된 관리개념이며 최종적으로 도달할 네트워크 관리 개념을 포함하고 있다. CORBA는 분산환경에서 응용프로그램을 쉽게 구현할 수 있는 기반을 제공하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 두 가지 기술을 접목한 CORBA와 TMN을 통합하고자 하는 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재의 CORBA/TMN 통합에 대한 연구를 바탕으로 효율적인 네트워크 통합 관리 구조를 정의하고 TMN의 기능중 Alarm Surveillance를 구조에 맞춰 구현하였다. 구현된 Alarm Surveillance System은 다양한 대리자들로부터 보고되는 여러 형태의 Alarm 정보에 대해, 처리 및 운용자에 대한 보고수행 등을 일관성 있게 처리하고 있는 것을 보여주고 있다. 따라서 제시된 Alarm Surveillance System은 사용자에게 일관성 있는 관리행위를 제공함으로써 다양한 관리구조가 적용된 복잡한 네트워크 관리를 제공할 수 있다. 또한 전체 네트워크로부터 필요한 통계분석을 위한 자료 수집 등의 편의를 제공할 것이다.Abstract Recently, due to the rapid development of network technology, the need for the network management appeared. So two representative standardards, SNMP and CMIP, have been applied to many network management system. But the more complex and vaious network are constructed, the demand for more efficient network management technology grew bigger. Currently, TMN technology is beginning to be widely applied to the management of networks. CORBA has been widely adopted for developing distributed systems in many areas of information technology. CORBA provides the infrastructure for the interoperability of various object-oriented management applications in a distributed environment, and, recently there have been world-wide research for the integration of CORBA within a TMN framework. Many attempts have been made to enable network management using CORBA techonology and some are working on already. This paper defines the architecture for integrated network management based on current CORBA/TMN integration technologies and then presents the design and implementation for alarm surveillance system which was applied to the defined architecture. The prototype implementation was done using IONA orbix. The proposed integrated network management framework will provide users with consistent management operations and ability to manage complex and various networks and to gather statistical data from those networks.

Alarm flood due to abnormality propagation is the most difficult alarm overloading problem in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Root-cause analysis is suggested to help operators in understand emergency events and plant status. Multilevel Flow Modeling (MFM) has been extensively applied in alarm management by virtue of the capability of explaining causal dependencies among alarms. However, there has never been a technique that can identify the actual root cause for complex alarm situations. This paper presents an automated root-cause analysis system based on MFM. The causal reasoning algorithm is first applied to identify several possible root causes that can lead to massive alarms. A novel root-cause ranking algorithm can subsequently be used to isolate the most likely faults from the other root-cause candidates. The proposed method is validated on a pressurized water reactor (PWR) simulator at HAMMLAB. The results show that the actual root cause is accurately identified for every tested operating scenario. The automation of root-cause identification and ranking affords the opportunity of real-time alarm analysis. It is believed that the study can further improve the situation awareness of operators in the alarm flooding situation.
