A sink node and its neighbor nodes spend more energy than other nodes since a stationary sink node collects data from wireless sensor networks(WSNs). For larger WSNs, the unbalanced energy of nodes causes the operation of WSNs to stop rapidly. This paper proposes a data gathering method by adapting the mobile sink to prolong the life time of large WSNs. After partitioning a network into several clusters, a mobile sink visits each cluster and collects data from it. An efficient algorithm is proposed to improve the energy efficiency by delivering the message from the mobile sink to the cluster head as well as to reduce the data gathering delay, which is the disadvantage of the mobile sink. Also, The algorithm is analyzed for the energy consumption and the data gathering delay. The validity of the ananlysis result is confirmed by the simulation.

Vibrotactile feedback is widely used in designing non-visual interactions on mobile phones, such as message notification, non-visual reading, and blind use. In this work, novel vibrotactile codes are presented to implement a non-visual text reading system for mobile phones. The 26 letters of the English alphabet are formed in an index table with four rows and seven columns, and each letter is mapped using the codes of vibrations. Two kinds of vibrotactile codes are designed with the actuator's on and off states and with specific lengths (short and long) assigned to each state. To improve the efficiency of tactile perception and user satisfaction, three user experiments are conducted. The first experiment explores the maximum number of continuous vibrations and minimum vibration time of the actuator's on and off states that the human can perceive. The second experiment determines the minimum interval between continuous vibrations. The vibrotactile reading system is designed and evaluated in the third experiment according to the results of the two preceding experiments. Results show that the character reading accuracy reaches 91.7% and the character reading speed is approximately 617.8 ms. Our method has better reading efficiency and is easier to learn than the traditional Braille coding method.

국내 주요 항만으로 반입되는 모든 운송사의 수출입 컨테이너는 반드시 항만을 관리하는 터미널 운영사에 해당 컨테이너의 주요 정보를 사전에 통지해야 하며 이를 컨테이너 운송 예정 정보라 부른다. 이는 항만 터미널 운영사가 반입 거점의 컨테이너의 야드 운영과 양적하 작업 계획을 사전에 계획하기 위함이다. 현재 국내 항만 터미널 운영사로 전송되는 컨테이너 반입 예정 정보는 특정 VAN 사업자를 통하여 EDI 로 정보를 송수신한다. 따라서 국내외 운송사들이 수출입 컨테이너를 항만에 반입하기 위해서는 별도의 비용을 지불하고 VAN 사업자의 EDI 서비스를 이용해야 한다. 또한 VAN 사업자의 EDI 시스템에 장애가 발생 할 경우 컨테이너 운송 예정 정보를 전송할 다른 방법은 현재 없는 상황이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 웹 서비스 기반의 SOAP 메시지 전송을 통하여 컨테이너 운송 예정 정보를 송수신 하는 시스템을 시범적으로 구축하고 이를 소개한다. 이를 통해 운송사와 항만 터미널 운영사는 VAN 사의 EDI 시스템 이외에 컨테이너 운송 예정 정보를 송수신하는 예비 전송망을 구축 할 수 있으며 EDI 사용 비용을 줄일 수가 있다.

The Internet of Things(IoT) is one of the key technologies in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The IoT is a system that acquires information from various sensors and provides meaningful information to users. The method of obtaining information from sensor is using WIFI, Bluetooth and Server. is not accessible to external users because of different type of networks or local area communication. For this reason, there is a problem that external user cannot receive notification in regard to sensor information. In this paper, we want to establish a cloud message environment using Google's FCM(Firebase Cloud Messaging) and find out through experiments how users can receive notifications even if they are outside.

This note provides technical guide on three issues associated with establishing and automatically running regional ocean forecasting systems: (1) a strategy for continuous production of hourly-interval three-day ocean forecast data, (2) the daily download of ocean and atmospheric forecasting data (i.e., HYCOM and NOAA/NCEP GFS data), which are provided by outside institutions and used as initial condition, surface forcing, and boundary data for regional ocean models, and (3) error notifications to numerical model managers through the Short Message Service (SMS). Guidance on dealing with these three issues is illustrated via solutions implemented by the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency, since in embarking on this project we found that this procedural information was not readily available elsewhere. This technical guide is based on our experiences and lessons learned during the process of establishing and operating regional ocean forecasting systems for the East Sea and the Yellow and East China Seas over the 5 year period of 2012-2016. The fundamental approach and techniques outlined in this guide are of use to anyone wanting to establish an automatic regional and coastal ocean forecasting system.

This paper proposes a data gathering method by adapting the mobile sink to prolong the whole operation time of large WSNs. After partitioning a network into several clusters, a mobile sink visits each cluster and collects data from it. An efficient protocol improves the energy efficiency by delivering messages from the mobile sink to the cluster head as well as reduces the data gathering delay, which is the disadvantage of the mobile sink. For the scalability of sensor network, the network architecture should support the multihop transmission in the duster rather than the single hop transmission. The process for the data aggregation linked to the travelling path is proposed to improve the energy consumption of intermediate nodes. The experiment results show that the proposed model is more efficient than legacy methods in the energy consumption and the data gathering time.

Recently great loss of life and property is occurring because of fire, natural disaster, earth quake, tsunami and so on. People spend 80~90% of their time indoor environment like office, supermarket, campus. Therefore Indoor navigation and guidelines system became so essential for most of all. Incase of emergency we must be careful earlier, in such a cases 5G kind of new technology may also cannot work. So immediate action and quick routing notification for guidelines and protection is the most. Considering this issue We proposed indoor evacuating guidance system based on microcontroller Wi-Fi board for Indoor APP using mobile. Focusing various kind of technology like, ok google, voice search APP we purposed node architecture based system. When we listen fire alarm while living inside the room. Then to be safe we connect with server and start Arduino UNO+IoT ESP8266 Wi-Fi shield version1-IoT module to store data in MySQL DB server. We make application to escape out from the building up-to the three exits giving information from source point to destination. Our program can send information to the users emergency location and situations. For this when the user get sound or vibration in their mobile device it indicate fire out near by. At that time we update message from Arduino to DB server for the fixed current position inside the building which give routing signal for that fire out location by changing values from 0 to 1. We have user in point 10 where user is near by. Later we detect Wi-Fi signal form Nodemcu as room of each floor and try to connect with user. Main purpose of this paper is to save life of people in short time and find out the shortest path up to nearest exits in the time of emergencies and rescue them.

The applications for considering their position and daily patterns of dementia patients have been developed in an early stage even if the older patients who have weaker or serious symptoms has increased in various forms. In this paper, we develop an android-based application which displays positions and pathways of patients on maps and provide messages in the cases of dangerous situations. Guardians need to register schedules including safe areas and personal information of their patients. This system registers behavior status categorized as normal or abnormal each position which is sent to a database. In particular, the deviation status is assigned in case the patients are not within the safe areas that their guardians registered on their schedule. The wandering status is assigned in case the patients are repeatedly passed by their pathways. This smart application contains the modules such as patient position sending, guardian and patient information, patient schedule and safe zone registration, position and behavior status registration, pathway display and message sending, and rescue request. This system sends the notification and alarm service providing normal and abnormal behavior with deviation and wandering status of patients respectively.

Recently, the smart devices has been possessed by a large majority of the adult, and offered various personalization services. This paper proposed the lightweight Intelligent Image Security System that notice the existence of any intruder in real time at the place of requiring the security by using smart device. The proposed image security system recognized whether or not intruder exists using the difference frame on the basis of Integral Image and the dynamic background updating algorithms. The intrusion notification is achieved by using the GCM push server that send massages in the application unit of user mobile device, and the SMTP mail server which is use of e-mail standard protocol. In case of the occurrence of intruder, GCM push server send an push-massage by the private mobile device, and SMTP mail server send the intruder's photograph and intrusion time. By the convergence of the various image processing algorithms and the performance of smart device, The proposed image security system can be applied to the various Intelligent Image Security field.
