In today's highly competitive business environment, most companies try to manage their logistics function strategically to satisfy their orders as cost-effectively as possible and maximize their present and future profits. In this environment, logistics process visibility is essential to companies wishing to competently track components, parts, or products in transit from the original suppliers to the final destinations. Thus, it is important to provide instantly and easily recognizable information about such visibility to all stakeholders, especially customers. To ensure a high-level geographical visibility of the logistics processes, in this paper, we propose a way of implementing a GIS-based logistics process monitoring environment and of integrating a performer's work processing environment on the monitoring system. Additionally, to provide more abundant monitoring information, we describe a procedure for creating and processing various monitoring information, which are represented as ECA rules in this work processing environment. Therefore, it is possible to provide intuitive and visible monitoring information regarding the logistics process and resource elements.

The study investigates the utilization of open access repositories for visibility of academic publications by lecturers in South-East, Nigeria. The specific objectives were to investigate the types of academic publications available, platforms used in self-archiving, level of satisfaction derived by lecturers with the contribution of open access repositories, challenges and strategies. It adopted descriptive survey design. Proportionate stratified sampling technique was used to draw a sample size of 418 from the total population of 4,187 lecturers. Questionnaire and observation check list were used for data collection. Frequency count, percentage, and mean score were used to analyze the data. The study revealed that there are enough academic publications available such as books, journals, projects, and thesis with the exception of handouts. It also revealed that Google Scholar, Research Gate and Open Access Journal were the main platforms lecturers use in self-archiving; while other platforms like Institutional Repositories, among others were minimally employed. Lecturers are less satisfied with the contribution of open access repositories. All the suggested challenges such as inadequate power supply, poor network, lack of awareness and inadequate research grants were all accepted. Similarly, all the suggested strategies for improving them were accepted. Recommendations were made based on the findings such as more awareness creation on importance of open access repositories; re-training of lecturers and provision of adequate ICT infrastructures that will improve the utilization of open access repositories by lecturers which could enhance the global visibility of academic publications from the Nigerian Universities.

There seems to be a consensus among most people that visibility impairment is the most obvious indicator of air pollution. While considerable evidence on the association between air pollution and health outcomes including death and disease have been established, based on industrial complex areas or huge urban cities, time-series, case-crossover and cohort studies, scarce literature exists on the direct evidence for the association between visibility and adverse health outcomes. Our study is assessed the effect of air pollution measured by visibility impairment on respiratory mortality over a period of six years. Relative risks in respiratory deaths were estimated by a Poisson regression model of daily deaths between $1999{\sim}2004$. Daily counts of respiratory deaths as dependent variable was modelled with daily 24-hr mean visibility measurements (kilometers) as independent variable by means of Poisson regression. This model is controlled for confounding factors such as day of weeks, weather variables, seasonal variables and $PM_{10}$. The results in this study is observed the statistically significant association between an inverse health effect and visibility during the study period for respiratory mortality (percentage change in the relative risk for all aged -0.57%, 95% Cl, $-1.01%{\sim}-0.12%$; for $0{\sim}15$ aged -7.12%, 95% Cl, $-13.29%{\sim}-0.51%$; for 65+ aged -0.43%, 95% Cl, $-0.93%{\sim}-0.06%$ per 1 km increased in visibility). The effect size was much reduced during warm season. Visibility impairment resulting from air pollution is strongly associated with respiratory mortality, especially for children may be spent at outdoor. Our result provides a quick and useful indicator for eliciting the contribution of air pollution to the excess risk of respiratory mortality in Seoul, Korea.

In this paper, we propose improved night visibility enhancement algorithm based on haze removal method. The proposed method uses new haze removal method in place of the conventional methods. Our night visibility enhancement method is very good and faster than traditional methods. This method also uses additionally local histogram equalization for sharpening the enhanced image. Our method can be applied to any application that uses a visible light camera, and it is appropriate to apply a black box, vehicle camera, and cell phone camera, since it is possible that real-time processing.

도로의 곡선부는 기하구조상 운전자의 시각변화가 현저하게 발생하고, 속도편차가 크게 나타나며, 다양한 원인에 의해 직선부보다 큰 위험을 내포하고 있다. 1999년도 교통문화운동본부의 설문조사에 따르면, 약 78%의 운전자가 안전표지판에 대한 불만을 느끼는 것으로 나타났으며, 불만 요인으로는 시인성 부족이 27.9%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 특히, 야간 또는 기상 악화로 인해 시선유도시설의 시인성 마비는 도로선형에 관한 정보를 부적절하게 전달하여 운전자의 안전을 위협할 뿐만 아니라, 도로의 서비스수준에도 영향을 미치므로 운전자의 시인성을 향상시키는 새로운 시선유도시설물의 설치와 관리가 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 현재 기 설치 운영 중인 재귀반사식 시선유도시설과 도로안전을 향상시키기 위해 새로 개발된 내부조명식 시선유도시설에 대해 운전자가 곡선부를 주행할 때 도로선형에 대한 정보를 효과적으로 얻고, 시인성이 향상된 시선유도시설물에 대해 1차, 2차 설문조사를 통해 통계적으로 비교 분석한 후, 교통안전을 향상시키는 최적의 시선유도시설물을 제시하였다. 설문조사 결과, 재귀반사식 보다 내부조명식 시선유도시설에서 시인성, 속도감속 필요성, 안전성에 대하여 더 효과적인 것으로 분석되었다. 향후 본 연구를 통해 교통안전이 향상된 시선유도시설물을 설치할 경우, 운전자에게 도로선형에 대한 정보를 보다 효과적으로 제공함은 물론 곡선부 교통사고 위험도를 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

From March 1998 to February 1999, we observed visibility and weather change in Dae Chung Bong and Kwon Keum Sung three times a day; at 10 Am, 1 PM and 4 PM. During research period (357 days for Kwon Keum Sung, 351 days for Dae Chung Bong), clear days were 185 days(52%) in Kwon Keum Sung and 149 days (43%) in Dae Chung Bong. Months that had many clear days in a year were December and January in both area. The rate of clear day to cloudy day in Sokcho downtown and Dae Chung Bong was 5 to 5, 4 to 6, respectively. The number of cloudy day in a year in Dae Chung Bong was 34days more than in Sokcho downtown. The visual distance in Kwon Keum Sung was 12.2km on the clear day, and 3.3km on the cloudy day. The yearly average was 7.9km. And we can see 8.9km farther on the clear day. The visual distance in Dae Chung Bong was 13.3km on the clear day, and 3.1km on the cloudy day. The yearly average was 8.1km. The visibility of clear day was 10.2km longer than that of cloudy day. The percentage to observe East Sea clearly was about 70% between December and January in both areas, and showed the highest visibility during research period. We observed Mt. Keumkang from 3 to 6 times in a month except rainy season. The yearly average visibility was 2%. If you go Mt. Serok except April, when there was yellow duet cloud from China, and rainy season (between the last of June and early of September), you can appreciate the most beautiful Mt. Sorak with Mt. Keumkang.

도로상의 안개로 인한 시정감소는 교통사고를 유발하는 주된 원인으로 운전자에게 도로의 시정거리를 미리 알려주어 안전운행을 유도하기 위한 안개경고시스템에서는 대부분 안개센서와 같은 고가의 광학센서를 사용하고 있다. 최근 운전자의 시정감각과 유사하면서도 저렴한 카메라를 이용한 시정측정에 관한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 기존의 연구는 별도의 표지나 ROI를 기반으로 하고 있으므로 설치가 어렵고 비용이 많이 들며 도로에 기 설치된 CCTV 시스템을 활용하기 어렵다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 도로상에 설치된 카메라 영상을 이용하여 주야간 실시간 시정측정이 가능한 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 도로모델을 구축하고 카메라 영상으로부터 차량의 이동영역과 가시선을 검출한 후 도로모델에 적용함으로써 매우 쉽고 빠른 시정의 계산이 가능하다. 제안된 방법은 운전자의 시정감각과 유사한 주야간 시정측정이 가능할 뿐만 아니라 시정표지와 같은 부가적인 시설을 사용할 필요가 없고 기존의 CCTV 시스템에 바로 적용할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 중부내륙고속도로에서 획득한 영상을 이용한 실험결과를 통해 본 연구의 현장적용 가능성과 활용방안을 제시하고 신뢰성 검증을 위한 향후 연구방향을 기술한다.
