  • Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) is the first optical survey system of its kind in a way that three KMTNet observatories are longitudinally well-separated, and thus have the benefit of 24-hour continuous monitoring of the southern sky. The wide-field and round-the-clock operation capabilities of this network facility are ideal for survey and the physical characterization of small Solar System bodies. We obtain their orbits, absolute magnitudes (H), three dimensional shape models, spin periods and spin states, activity levels based on the time-series broadband photometry. Their approximate surface mineralogy is also identified using colors and band slopes. The automated observation scheduler, the data pipeline, the dedicated computing facility, related research activity and the team members are collectively called 'DEEP-South' (DEep Ecliptic Patrol of Southern sky). DEEP-South observation is being made during the off-season for exoplanet search, yet part of the telescope time is shared in the period between when the Galactic bulge rises early in the morning and sets early in the evening. We present here the observation mode, strategy, software, test runs, early results, and the future plan of DEEP-South.

  • Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are special network which has purpose of usage for gathering information of certain area and observing situation. WSNs consist of small nodes with sensing event such as temperature, movement or certain objects. The sensor has the capabilities to collect data and route data back to the sink. The sensors route data either to other sensors or back to a sink in one direction. That is, traditional WSNs communicate asymmetrically. However, under the new paradigm of the Internet of Things (IoTs) or Cyber Physical system (CPS), WSNs have potential to be used as important area. So, more research is necessary to communicate with each moving objects symmetrically in WSNs. In this paper, we proposed symmetric communication scheme among mobile objects in wireless sensor network. Simulation results show that our scheme is superior th the existing ones in terms of energy consumption and transmission success ratio.

  • In Distributed Batch-processing Systems (DBSs), CPU-intensive jobs are automatically transferred and executed using idle computers across a network, there by increasing the resource usage and throughput. To be successful, the systems must guarantee the scalablility, fault-tolerance, and flexibility of dynamic configurations. In practice, however, it is very difficult to provide such capabilities in a non-deterministic environment in which the available set of resources is unpredictable because of network failures, computer failures, or voluntary withdrawal from a pool by a machine owner. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of the J-JDBS (Jini-based Java Distributed Batch-processing System) system which is based on the core Jini services like Discovery service, Lookup service, Lease service and etc. We show that the Jini core services can be very effectively used to build reliable, scalallle, fault-tolerant, and flexible DBS systems with little effort.

  • The information overload with many information resources is an inevitable problem in modern electronic life. It is more difficult to search some information with user's information needs from an uncontrolled flood of many digital information resources, such as the internet which has been rapidly increased. So, many information retrieval systems have been researched and appeared. In text retrieval systems, they have met with user's information needs. While, in image retrieval systems, they have not properly dealt with user's information needs. In this paper, for resolving this problem, we proposed the intelligent user interface for image retrieval. It is based on HCOS(Human-Computer Symmetry) model which is a layed interaction model between a human and computer. Its' methodology is employed to reduce user's information overhead and semantic gap between user and systems. It is implemented with machine learning algorithms, decision tree and backpropagation neural network, for user adaptation capabilities of intelligent image retrieval system(IIRS).

  • In this paper, we present a new framework and synchronization mechanism to effectively support developing real-time communication service by using a real-time object model named TMO (Time-Triggered Message-Triggered Object). Also, we describes the application environment as the DHS(distributed high-precision simulation) to guarantee real-time service message with TMO structure in distributed network systems. The TMO scheme is aimed for enabling a great reduction of the designer's effort in guaranteeing timely real-time communication service capabilities of among distributed multi-nodes systems. Our real-time framework provide the consistent construction and configuration of tine-triggered processing components across heterogeneous distributed object environment more easily. It has been formulated from the beginning with the objective of enabling design-time guaranteeing of timely action. In the real time simulation techniques based on TMO object modeling, we have observed several advantages to the TMO structuring scheme. TMO object modeling has a strong traceability between requirement specification and design.

  • This study examined a semantic relationship expressed in college presidents' welcome greetings in order to explore the promotion strategies and future direction of universities in Daegu & Gyeongbuk provinces in South Korea. Greetings were collected from university websites as of September, 2020. According to word frequency analysis, "everyone," "welcome," and "visiting" were mostly used in the headlines. In the body texts, "college" and "education" were frequently paired. While the two- & three-year colleges focus on industrial and technical capabilities, four-year universities tend to emphasize educational excellence and academic research performance. This study is valuable in that it understands the direction that universities in Daegu and North Gyeongsang Province put forward amid the decreasing school-age population and the changing social environment.

  • Lack of knowledge and digital skills is a threat to the information security of the state and society, so the formation and development of organizational culture of information security is extremely important to manage this threat. The purpose of the article is to assess the state of information security of the state and society. The research methodology is based on a quantitative statistical analysis of the information security culture according to the EU-27 2019. The theoretical basis of the study is the theory of defense motivation (PMT), which involves predicting the individual negative consequences of certain events and the desire to minimize them, which determines the motive for protection. The results show the passive behavior of EU citizens in ensuring information security, which is confirmed by the low level of participation in trainings for the development of digital skills and mastery of basic or above basic overall digital skills 56% of the EU population with a deviation of 16%. High risks to information security in the context of damage to information assets, including software and databases, have been identified. Passive behavior of the population also involves the use of standard identification procedures when using the Internet (login, password, SMS). At the same time, 69% of EU citizens are aware of methods of tracking Internet activity and access control capabilities (denial of permission to use personal data, access to geographical location, profile or content on social networking sites or shared online storage, site security checks). Phishing and illegal acquisition of personal data are the biggest threats to EU citizens. It have been identified problems related to information security: restrictions on the purchase of products, Internet banking, provision of personal information, communication, etc. The practical value of this research is the possibility of applying the results in the development of programs of education, training and public awareness of security issues.

  • Recently, research has been actively conducted to utilize blockchain technology in various fields. In particular, blockchain-based smart contracts are applied to various automation systems that require reliability as they have the characteristics of recording data in a distributed ledger environment to verify the integrity and validity of data. However, blockchain does not provide data access control and information security because data is shared among network participants. In this paper, we propose a user dynamic access control mechanism utilizing smart contracts in blockchain environments. The proposed mechanism identifies the user's contextual information when accessing data, allocating the user's role and dynamically controlling the data access range. This can increase the security of the system and the efficiency of data management by granting data access dynamically at the time of user authentication, rather than providing the same services in roles assigned to each user group of the network system. The proposed mechanism is expected to provide flexible authentication capabilities through dynamic data access control by users to enhance the security of data stored within blockchain networks.

  • The article seeks to explore Ukrainian media art and its features in a global context. In particular, it performs an in-depth analysis of the stages of its development from video art of the 1990s, media installations of the 2000s, and to various digital and VR technologies today. Due to historical circumstances, the development of media art was quite rapid, as young artists sought to gain new experience in media art. Most often, their experience was broadened through international cooperation and studying abroad. The paper analyzes the presentation of Ukrainian media art outside the country during 1993-2020 and distinguishes the main thematic areas of the artists' work. It examines how artists present and reveal the peculiarities of the Ukrainian worldview, aesthetics, and culture through the problematization of certain aspects and themes in their work. Specifically, among the principal topics which are problematized in the work of media artists are a sensory experience, limited sensory capabilities, gender issues, the Chernobyl tragedy, the development of utopian models of the city, and global communication. The leading themes of Ukrainian artists also include revolution and war. Notably, political and social sentiments determine the unique energy and vitality of contemporary Ukrainian art, create a revolutionary creative environment, and unite media artists in group art projects. It is concluded that by showing, exhibiting, and presenting them outside the country, artists shape the image of Ukrainian art in a global context.
