In this paper, we propose a new diagnosis method of DC/DC converter aging. The method is based on the variations of parasitic resistor for the aging process. We apply an on-line diagnosis of DC/DC converter because the observation is not a device, but a system. This study proposes a method of DC/DC converter diagnosis by analyzing the variations of model on the variations of parasitic resistor.

Two primary tools to study park use are surveys and direct observation. Existing methods, however, are limited in terms of considerable costs in both time and money and the personal bias of respondents or observers. These limitations result in a lack of efficient, reliable, and affordable tools to investigate park use. This study explores the reliability and usability of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs) to explore park use in urban parks in Busan metropolitan city. By comparing with a systematic observation tool, SOPARC(System for Observing Play and Recreation in Communities), this study finds that the number of park users observed by two different techniques are highly correlated and not significantly different with each other. In addition, both methods show a high level of test-retest reliability. Comparing to existing methods, the UAV-using observation tool could cover larger target areas and is suitable to count park users in a more reliable and efficient way and map their use patterns, although it is weak in collecting detailed user information and surveying under poor conditions such as rain. Thus, the UAV method could complement direct observation. This study suggests practical implications of a UAV method to study park use.

The GPS baseline processing and the network adjustment was required a preliminary classification and check for effective work because the observation data of GPS $3^{rd}$ order control points are enormous attain to about 12,000 points. Particularly, in baseline processing and network adjustment a inaccuracy GPS antenna heights and point names yield a gross error or a S/W computation error. For the baseline processing of observation data, the related all materials were collected and were required a final check. The factor occurring a error, in GPS the baseline processing, were inspected variously after a checking observation data. Also, baseline processing method of GPS $3^{rd}$ order control points were commented and the analysis carry out a results with a experiment. The ellipsoidal distance and height of duplication baseline was compared between adjoin campaign areas for a accuracy analysis of baseline processing. According to the result, the mean is about 1cm for horizontal direction and about 2cm for vertical direction.

User-centered design aims to develop device naturally without the interference of user' s conscious and unconscious behavior. Accordingly, designers need to understand their user's requirements, observe user behavior and interaction in the real environment. However, existing observations suggested a vast range of analysis system and observation techniques which are often ambiguous to the designers. Therefore, this research is aimed to propose an observation system for collecting data from user's behavior. In order to do so, we define the components and behavior level within the context of driving.

Objective : The region, observation period, figuration of pulse, pulse frequency, process of diagnosis and related diagnostic methods in traditional pediatric pulse diagnosis were studied in this article. Method : The articles related to traditional pediatric pulse diagnosis in Traditional medical classics, and analysis to the characteristics of it was done, then lastly, the principle of pulse manifestation and the meaning of application to modern times were considered. Result & Conclusion : It is difficult to catch the figuration of pediatric pulse because of dynamic change of body conditions, fast heartbeat and narrow region of pulse. Therefore, the pulse diagnosis appropriated for children have been developed and combined with the special diagnosis methods, for example, palpation of forehead and observation of index finger. The traditional pediatric pulse diagnosis is done with just one finger palpation in the period of 3 to 5 years old to identify the speed, length, size and height of pulse. The standard average of pulse frequency is 7~8 par breath in the period of 3 to 5 years old according to traditional medical classic.
