Consumer Education Policy for -Focusing on developing Social support System- The purpose of this research is to understand the change of future consuming environment and the characteristics of future potential consumer: the net generations. With those research results, we deduced our goal, content and method of consumer education for these net generations. Finally, I suggested a scheme of the social construction by demand of our future society. Literature review and depth interview are used for this research. The main factors of the change of our future consuming environment are Digitalization, globalization, improvement of consumer sovereignty, Sustainable consumption culture, the increasing pursuit of safe life. It is necessary to educate our future consumer, net generations, the information searching skills in order to be able to obtain right information. We also need to educate them how to practice the safe life and Sustainable consumption and how to get consumers sovereignty. The method of the education requires interchangeable communication. We need social networking system for the support of consumer education, in order to build this social system. We need an administrative support from the government and financial support from corporations. We have suggested that it is very desirable to share all the information developed among Academic field, Consumer related organizations and schools by this network be build.

Pediatric home-based physical therapy (PHBPT) provides professional rehabilitation programs at the patient's home, where the activities of daily life are actually performed. PHBPT also allows to avoid the difficulties of transporting children with disabilities to the clinic. Despite these advantages, PHBPT is not yet widely practiced in Korea. There is little objective information regarding the opinions of the main stakeholders on PHBPT. To investigate the awareness and demand of PHBPT among the main stakeholders, 41 pediatric physical therapists (PT) (of 60 contacted) were recruited from different regions of Korea on the basis of the regional population distribution. The recruited PTs completed their questionnaires and also participated in collecting questionnaires from 35 medical doctors (MD) with whom they worked and from randomly selected 201 parents of children with disabilities recruited. The overall response rate was 85.5%. The awareness of PHBPT differed between PTs (95.1%) and parents (67.2%) (p<.001). The survey showed that 82.9% of MDs had at least heard about PHBPT. Significantly more parents (83.5%) than MDs (57.1%), and 70.0% of PTs, wanted to start PHBPT service immediately (p<.001). Significantly more parents (90.0%) than PTs (73.2%) were willing to participate in PHBPT (p<.001). Opinions on the details of policies and procedures (i.e., necessity for prescription, treatment cost, and treatment frequency) differed among the respondent groups, but all favored a minimal qualification of 6~10 years of pediatric experience and a treatment session duration of 1 hour. These findings provide objective information to support health service administrators to understand the current demand and develop feasible policies and procedures of PHBPT in Korea.

In the construction industry, there is a growing demand for improving productivity, and development of autonomous operation systems for construction machinery is progressing. Autonomous operation of construction machinery requires positioning information because construction must be carried out at planned locations. In this paper, we focused on Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (Visual SLAM) as a method for obtaining location information for construction machinery and proposed an automated operation system using Visual SLAM. For automated driving, the indirect method based on ORB features is used in Visual SLAM, and processes such as mask processing for surrounding moving objects and measurement of initial positions using markers are performed. With the proposed system, it was confirmed that it is possible to perform automated operation in an experimental environment using the location information output by Visual SLAM. In addition, the experiment was conducted to verify the measurement accuracy when using Visual SLAM during construction work at actual construction sites. As a result, the measurement accuracy was less than 500 mm, which is a usable accuracy for actual construction. By using this system, it is possible to obtain the location information of construction machinery even in environments where GNSS cannot be used, and productivity at construction sites can be improved by performing automated operation.

In Korea 2016, the largest earthquake occurred in Gyeongju since the beginning of monitoring earthquakes. Consecutively the second-largest earthquake occurred in Pohang. At that time, immediately after the earthquake, citizens were not notified adequate information for evacuation. In consequence the response process was very confusing and citizens were not able to properly evacuate to shelter. For resolving these problems, it is needed of a service to inform quickly information which citizens want to know immediately after the earthquake. So, we have developed the customized information service model, the earthquake safety service which help citizens to escape safely using an earthquake shaking alert device. In this paper, we will introduce this model and present the future direction of R&D and strategic plans for technology dissemination and improvement of practicality through user demand survey.

Bus headway plays an important role not only in determining the passenger waiting time and bus service quality, but also in influencing the bus operation cost and passenger demand. Previous research on headway control has considered only an hourly difference in the distribution of ridership between peak and non-peak hours. However, this approach is too simple to help manage ridership demand fluctuations in a short time scale; thus passengers' waiting cost will be generated when ridership demand exceeds the supply of bus services. Moreover, bus ridership demand varies by station location and traffic situation. To address this concern, we propose a headway control algorithm for minimizing the waiting time cost by using Smart Card data. We also provide proof of the convergence of the algorithm to the desired headway allocation using a set of preconditions of political waiting time guarantees and available fleet constraints. For model verification, the data from the No. 143 bus line in Seoul were used. The results show that the total savings in cost totaled approximately 600,000 won per day when we apply the time-value cost of waiting time. Thus, we can expect that cost savings will be more pronounced when the algorithm is applied to larger systems.

The career development of information security workforce affiliated in administrative department is very different from workforce affiliated in private companies. Their career development attempts are made not by voluntary motivation but by involuntary job movement by the principle of internal relocation. So they are not directly linked to monetary compensation or advancement. Due to the nature of the organization, their work attitude is very passive and there is little intention to turnover. They do not need professionalism, but they must be retrained according to the law. In this paper, we investigate and analyze the roles and responsibilities of information security workforce of each administrative department. And we do questionnaire survey to find out current roles and responsibilities of them will not affect the demand for retraining. Through these research, we would like to discuss how to manage information security workforce affiliated in administrative departments.

The base of leisure air activities are consistently expanding and its demand is expected to increase attributed to GDP growth and people's interest in its activity. Utilizing Visual Flight Rule, light sport aircrafts and ultra-light aircrafts are not under the effect of air traffic control center, which resulted in passenger injury due to emergency landing for adverse weather conditions and technical issues after pulling into mountain area, ocean and even urban area. Such events encouraged safety consciousness toward leisure aircraft activities and developing a measure to prevent a recurrence of the accident. This research focuses on suggesting compositive system for preventive safety management system by providing user based Flight information service and operating effective system, necessary for leisure aircraft activities.

convergence networks (BcN). The problem seeks to minimize the total cost of switch and cable while satisfying the requirement of demand and quality of service (QoS). We develop mixed integer programming models to obtain the optimal switch location of the access network. We develop a Tabu Search (TS) heuristic algorithm for finding a good feasible solution within a reasonable time limit. We propose real networks with up to 25 nodes and 180 demands. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, we generate lower bounds from nonlinear QoS relaxation problem. Computational results show that the proposed heuristic algorithm provides upper bounds within 5% optimality gap in 10 seconds.
