  • Objectives: To ensure the microbiological safety of groundwater, it was confirmed whether waterborne pathogenic bacteria in groundwater samples tested positive for total coliforms in the Chungcheongnam-do Province region. Methods: Total colony counts, total coliforms and fecal coliforms were tested according to the process mandated by the drinking water quality testing standards of Korea. DNA was extracted from the samples, tested positive for total coliforms, and then subjected to real-time PCR to detect waterborne pathogenic bacteria. Results: A total of 115 samples were inadequate for drinking water. Thirty-one cases (27%) showed positive for fecal coliforms and nine cases (7.8%) showed total colony counts exceeding drinking water standards. Twenty-seven cases (23.5%) showed three items (total colony counts, total coliforms and fecal coliforms). Using the real-time PCR method, waterborne pathogens were detected in 57 cases (49.6%) in 115 samples. Seventy-eight cases of waterborne pathogenic bacteria were detected (including duplications): 27 cases of pathogenic E. coli (EPEC (19), ETEC (5), EHEC (1), EAEC (1) and EIEC (1)); 45 of Bacillus cereus; two of Yersinia spp.; two of Salmonella spp.; one of Staphylococcus aureus; one of Clostridium perfringens. Conclusion: The real-time PCR method can offer rapid and accurate detection of waterborne pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, this assay could be an alternative to conventional culture methods and can further ensure the microbiological safety of groundwater.

  • The real-time ubiquitous environment is required to be able to process a series of sensor data within limited time. The whole sensor data processing consists of several phases : getting data out of sensor, acquiring context and responding to users. The ubiquitous computing middleware is aware of the context using the input sensor data and a series of data from database or knowledge-base, makes a decision suitable for the context and shows a response according to the decision. When the real-time ubiquitous environment gets a set of sensor data as its input, it needs to be able to estimate the delay-time of the sensor data considering the available resource and the priority of it for scheduling a series of sensor data. Also the sensor data of higher priority can stop the processing of proceeding sensor data. The research field for such a decision making is not yet vibrant. In this paper, we propose a queuing time computation algorithm for sensor data processing in real-time ubiquitous environment.

  • Multiple CAS (Conditional Access System) could be safely downloaded and implemented in IPTV environment. Domestic standard of iCAS (Interchangeable CAS) which is providing device compatibility and mobility, can only defines CAS replacement for protecting Real-Time Streaming broadcast. CAS, however has limitations in IPTV's two-way communication environment where it needs to fulfill contents protection requirements of various broadcasting service. In order to supplement the limit of CAS, DRM protection technology should be required. Contents for real time broadcasting service or real time VOD service could be protected by CAS technology whereas services such as PVR, download VOD service or downloaded contents sharing could be protected by DRM technology. Therefore, a flexible IPTV device service environment could be constructed by mutual protection of CAS and DRM. This essay is going to research on the method of applying DRM based on iCAS standard, as well as proposing a system configuration applied with iCAS/DRM in commercialization.

  • Membrane fouling is formed due to pore blocking and cake formation by suspended material or contaminant in the membrane boundary layer. Membrane fouling is main obstacle for the wider application of industrial water treatment. The objective of this paper is to study the direct monitoring technique for the measuring the membrane fouling in real time. We investigated the extracted image of R, G, and B by visible light irradiation of 360 nm wavelength to measure the membrane fouling in real time by transparent foulant. The intensity of B of 400~499 nm wavelength range was stronger than that of R and G. The fluorescence image extraction analysis appeared to be a very attractive technique for monitoring the membrane fouling in real time.

  • Ubiquitous computing is one of the key technology areas in the "Project on Development of Ubiquitous computing and network technology" promoted by the Ministry of Science and Technology as a frontier business of the $21^{st}$ century in Korea, which is based on the new concept merging physical space and computer-based cyber space. With recent advances in Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) technology, low cost and low-power consumption wireless micro sensor nodes have been available. Using these smart sensor nodes, there are many activities to monitor real world, for example, habitat monitoring, earthquake monitoring and so on. In this paper, we introduce web-based real environment monitoring system incorporating wireless sensor nodes. It collects sensing data produced by some wireless sensor nodes and stores them into a database system to analyze. Our environment monitoring system is composed of a networked camera and environmental sensor nodes, which are called Mica2 and developed by University of California at Berkeley. We have modified and ported network protocols over TinyOS and developed a monitoring application program using the MTS310 and MTS420 sensors that are able to observe temperature, relative humidity, light and accelerator. The sensed data can be accessed user-friendly because our environment monitoring system supports web-based user interface. Moreover, in this system, we can setup threshold values so the system supports a function to inform some anomalous events to administrators. Especially, the system shows two useful pre-processed data as a kind of practical uses: a discomfort index and a septicity index. To make both index values, the system restores related data from the database system and calculates them according to each equation relatively. We can do enormous works using wireless sensor technologies, but just environment monitoring. In this paper, we show just one of the plentiful applications using sensor technologies.

  • Recently, business environment is spreading from singular business to supply-chain problem. SCM(Supply Chain Management) is changing from closed and static to opened and dynamic environment, so these environment changes of SCM require to enterprise different approach than past. As supply chain is becoming opened and dynamic, a claim is being naming that converse of real-time the get reaction from to recognizing the level of supply chain problem, grope of alternative plan to solving this problem and choosing optimum alternative plan raise the enterprise competitive. But until present, the research to deal with these changes of SCM is on insufficient situation. Thus in this paper proposes the agent system by a way of realizing dynamic supply chain. The agent is going to accomplish the management activities in real-time depends on environment and given condition and designed for solving problems development and maintenance. Also, algorithms performance of the agent is tested on TAC SCM environment. Agents in TAC SCM are simulations of small manufacturers, who must compete with each other for both supplies and customers, and manage inventories and production facilities.

  • 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.

  • In the present study, the real-time monitoring system is developed based on the wireless sensor network (WSN) and power line communication (PLC) employed in the 3,000-ton-class training ship. The WSN consists of sensor nodes, router, gateway and middleware. The PLC is composed of power lines, modems, Ethernet gateway and phase-coupler. The basic tests show that the ship has rather good environments for the wired and wireless communications. The developed real-time monitoring system is applied to recognize the thermal environments of main-engine room and one cabin in the ship. The main-engine room has lots of heat sources and needs careful monitoring to satisfy safe operation condition or detect any human errors beforehand. The monitoring is performed in two regions near the turbocharger and cascade tank, considered as heat sources. The cabin on the second deck is selected to monitor the thermal environments because it is close to the heat source of main engine. The monitoring results of the cabin show the thermal environment is varied by the human activity. The real-time monitoring for the thermal environment would be useful for the planning of the ventilation strategy based on the traces of the human activity against inconvenient thermal environments as well as the recognizing the temperature itself in each cabin.

  • Recently, IoT(Internet of Things) has been utilized in various fields provide a service to users by configuring a smart environment in a particular place. However, since the existing system does not change the operation and the task of the device according to the change of the surrounding environment, the user must operate passively every time the environment and the situation change. In this paper, we propose Situation-specific Task Control System based on real-time data classification. Sensor data is sent to the server and classified into real-time and non-real-time data, and then inserted into the decision tree to identify tasks according to the situation. In addition, the danger situation is divided into two stages, such as gas leakage and fire, and a warning message is sent. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the waste of electric power and the occurrence of malfunction, and it can be expected that the service with increased work efficiency will be provided.
