MOnCa2 is a framework for building intelligent smartphone applications based on smartphone sensors and ontology reasoning. In previous studies, MOnCa determined and inferred user situations based on sensor values represented by ontology instances. When this approach is applied, recognizing user space information or objects in user surroundings is possible, whereas determining the user's physical context (travel behavior, travel destination) is impossible. In this paper, MOnCa2 is used to build recognition models for travel behavior and routes using smartphone sensors to analyze the user's physical context, infer basic context regarding the user's travel behavior and routes by adapting these models, and generate high-level context by applying ontology reasoning to the basic context for creating intelligent applications. This paper is focused on approaches that are able to recognize the user's travel behavior using smartphone accelerometers, predict personal routes and destinations using GPS signals, and infer high-level context by applying realization.

An air traffic management (ATM) has been studied in a variety of fields to utilize an air traffic capacity efficiently and solve a congested air traffic situation due to an increment of an air traffic demand. In this paper, an air traffic management, which is related with controlling and determining the sequencing of an aircraft approaching to an airport, in terminal control area is studied. This paper focuses on scheduling algorithms with a given problem for the air traffic management with operational constraints, such as a space separation, an overtaking on the same air-route, and a route merge point (a scheduling point). For a real-time calculation, the presented algorithms focus on dispatching heuristic rules which are able to assign tasks in a fast time period with an adequate performance, which can be demonstrated as a proper and realistic scheduling algorithm. A simulation result is presented to illustrate the validity and applicability of the proposed algorithm. Each scheduling rule is analyzed on the same static and dynamic air traffic flow scenario with the ATM Monte-Carlo simulation.

In MANET, frequent movement of nodes causes the dynamic network topology changes. Therefore the routing protocol, which is very stable to effectively respond the changes of the network changes, is required. Moreover, the existing cluster-based routing protocol, that is the hybrid approach, has routing delay due to the re-electing of the cluster header. In addition, the routing table of CBRP has all only one hop distant neighbor nodes. PCBRP, proposed in this paper, ties two clusters in one pair of clusters to make longer radius. Then the pair of the cluster headers manages and operates corresponding member nodes. When they route nodes in the paired cluster internally, PCBRP reduces the delay by requesting a route. Therefore PCBRP shows improved total delay of the network and improved performance of packet transmitting rate.

In the subway, various fires continue to take place across the world. In the Daegu subway accident in 2003, many people were damaged by shortened visibility range caused by toxic gas and smoke. This paper, assuming that a subway fire happens in the Mandeok Station of the subway system in Busan, analyzed different smoke-spreading situations depending on the ventilation situation at its platform (opening of the train doors, operation of ventilation facilities in the tunnel, and working of fire door), using FDS. The calculation proved that it would be more effective to secure evacuation route when the ventilation facilities of the tunnel are not operated, than when they are on. And, it was also found that the case where the doors of the platform to the escape route and only the platform-facing doors of the subway car on fire office are open would be more effective to ventilation than the case where all the doors are open. And, it was found to be important that the fire doors of the platform are working properly.

ITS includes an Advanced Traveler Information System(ATIS) that provides travelers with service and facility data for the purpose of assisting prior to embarking on a trip or after the traveler is underway. ATIS consists of three major subsystems, which are a Pre-trip Traffic Information subsystem(PTIS), an En-route Traffic Information Subsystem(ETIS), and a Dynamic Route Guide Subsystem(DGIS). ATIS needs to be designed and implemented in accordance with the National ITS Architecture, a reference framework that spans all of standards activities. Recently, as software technology is rapidly improved and stabilized, there are some needs to reuse pre-developed and powerful ITS technology. ITS standardization based on components and open interfaces becomes a way to solve these reusability of current ITS technology. This paper focuses on how could we design and implement ATIS based on the component with the aid of UML(Unified Modeling Language). The UML methodology is expected to provide a standardized model for newly developed ITS components.

Ever since Korea was geopolitically divided into North and South Korea in the 1940s, South Korea has depended on maritime transportation for global trade and logistics. Now, however, South Korea is preparing to develop a new global route for trans-Eurasia logistics passing through North Korea. Even though there are difficulties to overcome, South Korea expects that a new overland route, shorter than the existing seaways in the Europe-Asia section, will bring more frequent trade with more rapid and cost-effective logistics services in the future. Related to this issue, this study aims to proactively analyze dynamic logistics changes in South Korea when a trans-Korea railway is developed and linked with the trans-China railway and the trans-Siberian railway. This study employed a system dynamics simulation approach to model the logistics system in South Korea. The simulation results indicated that the traffic of the Uiwang inland container depot near the capital area may increase but the traffic of the Port of Busan may decrease. With supplementary research, consequently, follow-up studies on adjusting the traffic capacity in Korea are required to attain successful trans-Eurasia logistics by rail.

첨단 교통정보 시스템(ATIS)의 핵심요소라고 할 수 있는 동적경로안내 시스템 (Dynamic Route Guidance System)은 운전자가 목적지에 도착하기까지 실시간 교통정보를 토대로 최적경로를 안내해줌으로써 날로 심화되고 있는 교통혼잡을 최소화 할 수 있으리라 기대를 모으고 있다. 특히 교통사고나 긴급 도로공사 등으로 인해 발생하는 돌발적 교통혼잡하에서는 DRGS의 역할이 더욱 커질 것으로 예상되고 있다. 본 논문은 돌발적 교통혼잡하에서 보다 효과적인 DRGS의 경로안내 전략을 수립하고 평가하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 우선 하부구조기반 DRGS와 개인차량기반 DRGS의 장단점을 비교하고 시스템 아키텍쳐와 경로안내전략의 관계를 규명하였다. 또한 효율적인 경로안내를 위해 사용자평형 (User Equilibrium) 경로안내전략과 시스템 최적화(System Optimal) 경로안내 전략을 이상형교통망 (Idealized Network)을 통해 비교 분석하였다. 그리고 돌발적 교통 혼잡하에서 사용자평형 경로 안내를 사용할 경우 야기될 수 있는 Braess Paradox 문제와 시스템 최적경로안내를 사용할 경우 일어날 수 있는 사용자 호응도(User Compliance) 문제를 동시에 감안한 적응 형 경로안내 전략을 개발하였다. 이 방법은 위의 경로 안내 전략들이 가지고 있는 장단점을 상황에 따라 평가하여 경로안내 전략을 선택하는 과정을 수행시간을 절약하지 못할 것으로 평가되면 사용자 호응도를 고려하여 사용자 평형 전략을 선택하도록 하였다. 돌발적 교통 혼잡하에서 통행 시간을 동적으로 예측하기 위해서는 이산 확정적 대기행렬모형 (Discrete Deterministic Queueing Model)이 적용되었다. 한편, 적응형 전략의 효율성을 평가하기 위 해 이상형교통망과 실제 미국 Virginia 주의 Fairfax Country에 소재한 주간 고속도로 66번 과 인접 교통망을 대상으로 각종 돌발교통혼잡상황을 전제로 한 Traffic Simulation과 정보 제공 시나리오를 INTEGRATION Model을 사용하여 실행하였다. 그 결과 적응형전략이 단지 사용자평형 경로안내전략만 사용하는 경우에 비해 교통 혼잡도와 유고상황의 체류정도에 따라 3%에서 10%정도까지 전체통행시간을 절약할 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다.

In this study, the initial in vivo pharmacokinetic changes according to the routes of drug administration were investigated using bioimaging techniques. The purpose of this study was to quantify the degree of distribution of each major organ in normal mice over time by acquiring Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography images while administering routes F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose such as intravenous, intraperitoneal and per oral, a representative diagnostic radiopharmaceutical. Dynamic Positron Emission Tomography images were acquired for 90 minutes after drug administration. Radioactivity uptake was calculated for major organs using the PMOD program. In the case of intravenous administration, it was confirmed that it spread quickly and evenly to major organs. Compared to intravenous administration, intraperitoneal administration was about three times more absorbed and distributed in the liver and intestine, and it was showed that the amount excreted through the bladder was more than twice. In the case of oral administration, most stayed in the stomach, and it was showed that it spread slowly throughout the body. In comparison with intravenous administration, it was presented that the distribution of kidneys was more than 9 times and the distribution of bladder was 66% lower. Since there is a difference in the initial in vivo distribution and excretion of each administration method, we confirmed that the determination of the administration route is important for in vivo imaging evaluation of new drug candidates.

It is widely known that the dynamic optimal path algorithm, adopting real-time path finding, can be supporting an optimal route with which users are satisfied economically and accurately. However, this system has to search optimal routes frequently for updating them. The proposed concept of optimizing search area lets it reach heuristic optimal path rapidly and efficiently. Since optimal path should be increased in proportion to an distance between origin and destination, tremendous calculating time and highly efficient computers are required for searching long distance journey. In this paper, as a result of which the concepts of partial solution and representative path are suggested. It was possible to find an optimal route by decreasing a half area in comparison with the previous method. Furthermore, as the size of the searching area is uniform, comparatively low efficient computer is required for long distance trip.
