With the rapid growth of the up-to-date wireless network and Internet technologies, huge and various types of things around us are connected to the Internet and build the hyper-connected society, and lots of smart applications using these technologies are actively developed recently. IoT connects human, things, space, and data with various types of networks to construct the hyper-connected network that can create, collect, share and appling realtime information. Furthermore, most of the smart applications are concentrated on the service that can collect and store realtime contexts using various sensors and cloud technology, and provide intelligence by making inferences and decisions from them nowadays. In this paper, we design a smart application that can accurately control and process the current state of the specific context in realtime by using the state-of-the-art ICT techniques such as various sensors and cloud technologies on the IoT based mobile computing environment.

Recently, inertial sensors are popularly used for the location and position recognition of small devices for M2M/IoT. In this paper, we designed low power, low noise, small sized 6-axis inertial sensor IC for mobile applications, which uses a 3-axis piezo-electric gyroscope sensor and a 3-axis piezo-resistive accelerometer sensor. Proposed IC is composed of 3-axis gyroscope readout circuit, two gyroscope sensor driving circuits, 3-axis accelerometer readout circuit, 16bit sigma-delta ADC, digital filter and control circuit and memory. TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ mixed signal CMOS process was used. Proposed IC reduces 27% of the current consumption of LSM330.

This paper proposes an energy-efficient cache and memory management scheme for next-generation IoT devices. The proposed scheme adopts a low-power phase-change memory (PCM) as the main memory of IoT devices, aims at minimizing the write traffic to PCM, which is vulnerable to write operations. Specifically, when a cache block of the last-level cache memory is flushed to main memory, the cache block that causes less writes to PCM is preferentially replaced by tracking the modifications of each cache line that constitutes the cache block. In addition, by considering the reference bit of the cache block and the dirty bit of the cache lines, our scheme reduces the energy consumption without degrading the memory system performances. Through simulations using SPEC benchmarks, it is shown that the proposed scheme reduces the write traffic to PCM by 34.6% on average and the power consumption by 28.9%, without memory performance degradations.

Effective construction safety management systems are desperately required for reducing damage caused by increasing safety accidents in construction sites. Safety accidents in construction sites can effectively protect if proactive measures are taken to prevent unauthorized worker access the expected hazardous area. In this study, we have developed a IoT(Internet of Things)-based dangerous zone alarming system for safety management in construction sites, which can be operated at low cost in large-scale sites as well as small and medium-sized construction sites. The development system utilizes a Zigbee-based beacon technology and cellular mobile communication technology to detect when authorized workers, unauthorized field workers or outsiders approaches hazardous zones. If somebody approaches the dangerous zones the system notifies immediately to the safety manager with a danger warning signal. It is expected that this system can effectively prevent safety accidents when applied to construction sites.

It is necessary to dynamic recognition system with real time loading height and pressure of the loading waste, the drying of wood, batteries, and plastic wastes, which are representative compositional wastes, and the carbonization changes on the surface. The dynamic context awareness service constituted a platform based on Universal Middleware system using BCN convergence communication service as a Ambient SDK model. A context awareness system should be constructed to determine the cause of the fire based on the analysis data of fermentation heat point with natural ignition from the load waste. Furthermore, a real-time dynamic service platform that could be apply to the configuration of scenarios for each type from early warning fire should be built using Universal Middleware. Thus, this issue for Internet of Things realize recognition platform for analyzing low temperature fired fire possibility data should be dynamically configured and presented.

This paper proposes an App Visualization (AppV) based on IoT Self-diagnosis Micro Control Unit (ISMCU) for accident prevention. It collects a current status of a vehicle through a sensor, visualizes it on a smart phone and prevents vehicles from accident. The AppV consists of 5 components. First, a Sensor Layer (SL) judges noxious gas from a current vehicle and a driver's driving habit by collecting data from various sensors such as an Accelerator Position Sensor, an O2 sensor, an Oil Pressure Sensor, etc. and computing the concentration of the CO collected by a semiconductor gas sensor. Second, a Wireless Sensor Communication Layer (WSCL) supports Zigbee, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth protocol so that it may transfer the sensor data collected in the SL to ISMCU and the data in the ISMCU to a Mobile. Third, an ISMCU integrates the transferred sensor information and transfers the integrated result to a Mobile. Fourth, a Mobile App Block Programming Tool (MABPT) is an independent App generation tool that changes to visual data just the vehicle information which drivers want from a smart phone. Fifth, an Embedded Module (EM) records the data collected through a Smart Phone real time in a Cloud Server. Therefore, because the AppV checks a vehicle' fault and bad driving habits that are not known from sensors and performs self-diagnosis through a mobile, it can reduce time and cost spending on accidents caused by a vehicle's fault and noxious gas emitted to the outside.

Corrected Block TEA(or XXTEA) is a block cipher designed to correct security weakness in the original block TEA in 1998. In this paper, XXTEA cipher hardware which can encrypt or decrypt between 64-bit and 256-bit messages using 128-bit master key is implemented. Minimum message block size is 64-bit wide and maximal message block size is 256-bit wide. The designed XXTEA can encrypt and decrypt variable-length message blocks which are some arbitrary multiple of 32 bits in message block sizes. XXTEA core of this paper is described using Verilog-HDL and downloaded on Vertex4. The operation frequency is 177MHz. The maximum throughput for 64-bit message blocks is 174Mbps and that of 256-bit message blocks is 467Mbps. The cryptographic IP of this paper is applicable as security module of the mobile areas such as smart card, internet banking, e-commerce and IoT.

It takes lots of time and labor if a worker have to measure the water quality at a certain but designated time every day in an un-automated aqua farm. In addition, if the equipment is soaked in the sea water consistently, it will be contaminated by diverse floating matters and barnacles, and it often becomes mal-functional within 2~3 months. Therefore, we need to develop a system with which the sensed data could be checked in real time and operated automatically, while preventing the contamination of the sensor, a crucial component for water quality measuring equipment, as much as possible, and increasing the replacement cycle. We have developed a non-cleaning water quality measuring equipment and its software which are used in the fishery household of offshore aqua farms. By providing the workers with a mobile application which has a function of monitoring the water quality in real time, they can check the situation directly without going to the fishery household.

사물인터넷(IoT)이 활성화되면 환자의 정보를 PC뿐만 아니라 스마트폰 등 모바일 기기를 통해 확보할 수 있게 돼 지금보다 방대하고 상세한 정보가 클라우드에 저장되고, 이들 데이터를 활용하면 결과적으로 의료 및 헬스케어 서비스 향상에 기여할 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 면에서 PACS 시스템 또한 핸드폰과 무선망의 보급이 보편화되면서 사용자가 이동 중 또는 병원이 아닌 외부에서 무선통신망을 이용하여 의료영상을 조회하고자 하는 요구가 급속히 늘어나고 있다. 이에 본 논문은 IOT 기반의 모바일 PACS 플랫폼을 개발하여 스마트폰을 사용하는 의사와 환자가 원하는 의료영상을 쉽게 저장 검색 조회 전송할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다.
