For vehicle safety-related services using wireless communications, reliable collection of various driving informations transmitted periodically by neighbor vehicles is the most important. Every host vehicle analyses them to estimate a potential dangerous situation in a very short time and warns drivers to prevent an accident. However tremendous amount of periodic messages can cause the wireless communication in chaos and the services not in safe. In this paper, we propose a time-division broadcasting protocol to mitigate the communication congestion. It utilizes the received information of vehicle velocity and location, i.e. vehicle traffic density on a road to adjust the number of time slots in a given broadcasting period, and transmission power. The simulation results show that message reception ratio is changed to approximately 40% and channel access time also decreased from 10ms to 0.23ms.

The expansion of the scope of product liability is necessary because the industrial environment has changed following the enactment of the Product Liability Act. Unlike human-coded algorithms, artificial intelligence is black-boxed according to machine learning, and even developers cannot explain the results. In particular, since the cause of the problem by artificial intelligence is unknown, the responsibility is unclear, and compensation for victims is not easy. This is because software or artificial intelligence is a non-object, and its productivity is not recognized under the Product Liability Act, which is limited to movable property. As a desperate measure, productivity may be recognized if it is stored or embedded in the medium. However, it is not reasonable to apply differently depending on the medium. The EU revise the product liability guidelines that recognize product liability when artificial intelligence is included. Although compensation for victims is the value pursued by the Product Liability Act, the essence has been overlooked by focusing on productivity. Even if an accident occurs using an artificial intelligence-adopted service, however, it is desirable to present standards according to practical risks instead of unconditionally holding product responsibility.

Many security threats are occurring around the world due to the characteristics of industrial control systems that can cause serious damage in the event of a security incident including major national infrastructure. Therefore, the industrial control system network traffic should be analyzed so that it can identify the attack in advance or perform incident response after the accident. In this paper, we research the visualization technique as network forensics to enable reasonable suspicion of all possible attacks on DNP3 control system protocol, and define normal action based rules and derive visualization requirements. As a result, we developed a visualization tool that can detect sudden network traffic changes such as DDoS and attacks that contain anormal behavior from captured packet files on industrial control system network. The suspicious behavior in the industrial control system network can be found using visualization tool with Digital Bond packet.

Various type of pavement deterioration such as crack, bumpy, pothole is rapidly increasing according to the accelerated environmental changes like heavy rainfall, frequent snowing, difference temperature, etc. Accident related to pothole that cause fatal traffic accidents has been increased more than five times over the next five years starting from 2008. As direct or indirect damage by pothole which caused injuries and car damages increases every year, quicker and more efficient management measures are necessary. This study presents the algorithm for materials quantity take-off. The algorithm was suggested by correlation in pothole size and area. Suggested algorithm were confirmed the validity through the 15 field survey in capital area. According to the results of survey, usually the residual materials at which 5~7 kg was generated decreased to 1~2 kg. It showed that automatic pothole detection system is expected not only to reduce materials and resources, but also to contribute to quality improvements of pavement through more accurate material take-off from the situation of constructing rely on their own judgement.

The construction industry is a labor-oriented and quality, cost, and schedule performance is effected by technicians. However, the construction industry have faced a labor shortage problem. Therefore, technician graying and no new workers inflow cause labor shortage and decline of worker's skill level. The utilization of foreign technicians instead of domestic technicians has been increased in the construction industry. This paper performed questionnaire survey for 43 managers on 14 project fields to determine the current status and problems of construction technicians and to propose a improvement plan. As a result, most foreign technicians are carpenters and iron workers, but the skill levels are generally lower than domestics. The major problems for foreign technicians are communication and non-skilled. Then, labor productivity and accident rates of foreign technicians are higher than domestics. This paper proposes that skill training programs, language lessons, and multi-cultural programs are effective to improve foreign workers' problems.

According to the Fire Services Act revised in 2005, it has been required to set up sprinkler systems to all floors to the newly builded apartments having above 11 floors. But, according to the Fire Services Act before 2005, it had been required to set up sprinkler systems from 16 floors to the top floors to the apartments having above 16 floors. This case is the accident that a victim was dead by the fire which is inferred as an accidental fire by a cigarette butt in a 17th floor apartment unit in an apartment having 17th floors and that the bereaved family called in question why the sprinklers non worked at the fire. Through the field investigation, we checked that the sprinklers worked well when the fire detectors at the 16th floor of the apartment were operated and that the sprinklers non worked when the fire detectors at the 17th floor of the apartment were operated. We made clear that the cause of the sprinkler non-working at the 17th floor is the programming error of the sprinkler controller.

Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula is usually considered as a subset of congenital anomalies or acquired causes which can produce a variety of conditions such as dyspnea, cyanosis, and pulmonary vascular bruit. The diagnostic methods can be diverse such as arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA), chest X-ray, chest CT and pulmonary angiogram but the most accurate diagnostic modality is thought to be the pulmonary angiogram. The complications of this disease are a rupture that can cause hemothorax, brain abscess, and cardiovascular accident, and the treatment options are either segmental resection or therapeutic embolization. A twenty-six year old female developed sudden dyspnea and visited our emergency room. The patient was diagnosed as having pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (size; 4${\times}$4${\times}$3 cm) in the superior segment of the right lower lobe, evidenced by chest CT and pulmonary angiogram. Consequently, she underwent an emergency right lower lobectomy. We report this rare case of combined hemothorax that we have experienced, from diagnosis to treatment.

This paper is concerned with automatic telemetering system which reads the consumed quantity of electricity, gas, and piped water. The existing metering method such that a meterman visits households and directly reads meters can cause several problems, including violation of privacy and the possibility of criminal accident, as well the inefficiency in viewpoint of system operation and rate notification. In this paper, we propose a new automatic telemetering and rate notification system, in which the system reads several meters at remote locations and notifies the rates to the customer's cellular phone with short message service(SMS). The proposed system has been developed by using CDMA mobile communication modules and personal computers. This system can operate only with cellular communication network even without wired-internet facilities. In particular, the developed system can provide home security and convenience as well as cost reduction, and thus be applied to intelligent home networks.

After heated discussion, National Police Agency decided not to install Red Arrow signal at such major intersections as Gwanghwamoon, Sejongro. The major issues can be summarized in the following reasons. The one is the conflict of color and symbol (red means STOP and arrow means PROGRESS), and it would confuse drivers and may cause traffic accident. The other includes high replacement cost. This paper delivered how much red arrow signal would affect (1) drivers start up delay time, (2) saturation flow rate and (3) vehicle headway. The result showed that there was no statistical difference in those even when a red arrow signal is placed.

Social unrest from retaliatory crimes is increasingly becoming problematic. Recently, there was an accident involving a suspect who went to a hospital and committed acts of retaliatory violence 11 times. This person's reasoning was that he was imprisoned due to the hospital's reporting to the police. He was consequently arrested in Boeun Choongbook on December 27th 2014. Accidents like this one take place frequently around our surroundings. There are regulations and systems in place. Nevertheless, similar cases that continue to take place makes us wonder if criminal judicial systems work well. Lukewarm responses to retaliatory crimes is not only threatening social security, but also placing fears in the minds of ordinary citizens. If retaliatory crimes take place, most citizens become apprehensive about criminal judicial activities of the police and mistrust for criminal judicial system. This at times discourages people from reporting incidents and could eventually increase crime rate and cause various social problems. Even though there are legal and systemic control measures, retaliatory crime is an increasing trend. This study is going to examine tendencies of internal retaliatory crimes and discuss legal-systemical responses.
