At present, there are many companies that can produce modular housing. However, if the housing projects are conducted without design standards and principles, each company will supply housing according to its own design standards, resulting in a loss of opportunity to promote standardization at a national level. Korea's modular construction technology is still in its infancy, and there is a lack of MC design applications due to the limited construction market. In recent years, however, related R&D has been carried out by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in order to activate modular construction. As a result, test-beds for public rental housing are currently being built, and the public rental housing applied with the modular construction method is expected to spread in the near future. In this regard, this study seeks to promote more economical and efficient production and supply of modular housing. To this end, it investigates the current status of modular construction, analyzes the problems and proposes a serious of MC design standards as part of the design standardization and open system for modular housing industry to solve the problems.

This study aims to analyze the performance of Heated-nonslip using renewable energy to prevent nonslip freezing during winter. For this purpose, power generation system and congratulatory devices using solar energy are designed, and it is designed to provide regular electricity to heat up nonslip through Electrical storage system(ESS). In this study, It is intended to analyze the level of electrical energy suitable for nonslip using 24V or 48V, and to measure the temperature changes and temperature distribution according to the location of the test object. As a result of the experiment, nonslip's frame temperature was measured at $-7.5{\sim}-5^{\circ}C$ on average, and $-1{\sim}-2^{\circ}C$ on the heating cable during the supply of 24V and this could not be the solution for defrosting freezing nonslip in the winter. As a result of heating nonslip by supplying 48V with an electrical power of 8W, the temperature of the nonslip was shown to be between $5^{\circ}C$ and $11^{\circ}C$ to $13^{\circ}C$. Even if the power supply was switched on and off every minute, the temperature did not drop below $4^{\circ}C$ and the frozen ice melted on the nonslip without freezing.

As a 4th industrial revolution technology, robots are changing the form of labor market and trade in Korea. In the future, changes in the international trade order are expected to move in the direction of shortening global supply chains and restricting trade between countries. Accordingly, reshoring of relocating overseas production facilities to Korea or near-shoring of relocating overseas production facilities to neighboring allies may expand. In this context, this study analyzed the impact of robot introduction on the domestic labor market and trade based on firm-level data. As a result of analysis based on the 'business activity data' accumulated from 2017 to 2019, the introduction of robot technology was analyzed to expand low-wage, low-skilled employment. Analysis on trade shows that the introduction of robots decreases exports and increases imports. In order to expand exports through the technology of the 4th industrial revolution, employment expansion and robot introduction should occur at the same time, rather than replacing the labor force with robots. In addition, it is thought that reshoring's goal of risk management can be achieved when a stable supply chain for imports of raw materials or essential goods, which are difficult to transfer to Korea, is established together.

The DEMUX can be operated at a speed of 25 Gb/s with the power supply voltage of 1.05 V, and the power consumption is 8.9 mW. The area of the DEMUX core is $29\;{\times}\;40\;{\mu}m^2$. The operation speed of the 4:1 MUX is 13 Gb/s at a power supply voltage of 1.2 V, and the power consumption is 4 mW. The area of the MUX core is $30\;{\times}\;18\;{\mu}m^2$. The MUX/DEMUX mainly consists of differential pseudo-NMOS. In these MUX/DEMUX circuits, logic swing is nearly rail-to-rail, and a low $V_{dd}$. The component circuit is more scalable than a CML circuit, which is commonly used in a high-performance MUX/DEMUX. These MUX/DEMUX circuits are compatible with conventional CMOS logic circuit, and it can be directly connected to CMOS logic gates without logic level conversion. Furthermore, the circuits are useful for core-to-core interconnection in the system LSI or chip-to-chip communication within a multi-chip module, because of its low power, small footprint, and reasonable operation speed.

A portable power supply system for soldiers must be able to supply electric energy corresponding to the power consumption of combat support troops, and have a carrying load in a range that does not impair the combatant's ability to execute operations. In particular, as the total required power of combat equipment increases with the advances in the future soldier system, a portable, lightweight power supply system with high efficiency is essential. A fuel cell has a high energy-to-weight density compared to lithium batteries, which are used mainly as a military power source system. Therefore, it is capable of miniaturization and lightweight, making active R&D to a portable power supply system. In this paper, the characteristics of the fuel cell applied as a portable power supply system, and the R&D trends of domestic and foreign military portable fuel cell systems were investigated. The current status of domestic technology compared to the level of foreign development was analyzed. In addition, future technology development plans are presented based on the consideration factors when developing a portable fuel cell (power supply stability, portability, and cost reduction) so that it can be used when establishing a plan on the development of a portable fuel cell system for the future soldier system.

The On Line Electric Vehicles(OLEV) that can pick up inductive power from underground coils on driving with high efficiency have been developed this year, and is now proposed in this paper. The IPS(Inductive Power Supply) system consists of power supply inverters, power supply rails, pick up modules, and a regulator. There are 3 generations of IPS have been developed so far, and the $4^{th}$ generation IPS is being developed. The $1^{st}$ generation has been demonstrated this Feb. 27, which is equipped with mechanically auto tracking pick-up module with 1cm air gap, and showed 80% power efficiency. The $2^{nd}$ generation IPS applied to an 120kW (average)/240kW(peak) motor powered electric bus has 17cm air gap with 72% power efficiency. For the $2^{nd}$ generation IPS, the Power supply inverter has 440V, 3phase input and 200A @ 20kHz output. The test power supply rail of 240m long is segmented by 60m each, where newly developed core structure and power cable are constructed under the road covered with asphalt of 5cm thickness. The pick-up modules which consist of core, winding wire, and rectifiers are fixed to the bottom of the bus which can carry more than 40 passengers and can pick up max. 60kW. To remove parasitic component and to transfer maximum power between them resonant circuit topology is applied to the primary and secondary sides. The EMF level is below 62.5mG at 1.75m from the center of the road to meet the regulation. Several effective ways of reducing EMF levels have been developed. In addition, effective ways to solve problems related high frequency power cables buried in ground and it's proof from soil have been studied also. This development shows that the IPS system is capable of supplying enough power to the pick-up of OLEV and can reduce battery size, weight and cost, which means the IPS with OLEV is one of the best candidate for EV.

To determine $SO_4^{2-}$ uptake and its assimilation in response to the exogenous $SO_4^{2-}$supply level in forage rape (Brassica napus L.), the concentration of this element in plant tissues and the activity of ATP sulfurylasc and APS reductase was measured after 25 hours of treatment (1.0 mM $SO_4^{2-}$, control; 0.1 mM $SO_4^{2-}$, S deficiency; 0 mM $SO_4^{2-}$, S deprivation). $SO_4^{2-}$ uptake and the concentration in the plant tissues significantly decreased in S-deficient and S-deprived condition, while it maintained at nearly same level in the control. The activity of ATP sulfurylase tended to increase with decreasing the exogenous $SO_4^{2-}$ supply, while that of APS reductase to decrease. A significant change in both enzymes responding to S-deprivation treatment was observed only young and middle leaves. The results indicated that $SO_4^{2-}$ assimilation in young leaf tissues would be much more sensitively responded to S-limited nutrition.

Sulphur deficiency has become widespread over the past several decades in most of the agricultural area. Oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) is a very sensitive to S limitation which is becoming reduction of quality and productivity of forage. Few studies have assessed the sulphur mobilization in the source-sink relationship, very little is known about the regulatory mechanism in interaction between sulphur and nitrogen during the short-term sulphur deficiency. In this study, therefore, amount of sulphur and nitrogen incorporated into amino acids and proteins as affected by different S-supplied level (Control: 1 mM ${SO_4}^{2-}$, S-deficiency: 0.1 mM ${SO_4}^{2-}$, and S-deprivation: 0 mM ${SO_4}^{2-}$) were examined. The amount of sulphur in sulphate (S-sulphate) was significantly decreased by 25.8% in S-deprivation condition, compare to control, but not nitrogen in nitrate (N-nitrate). The markedly increase of sulphur and nitrogen incorporated amino acids (S-amino acids and N-amino acids) was observed in both S-deficiency and S-deprivation treatments. The amount of nitrogen incorporated proteins (N-protein) was strongly decreased as sulphur availability while the amount of sulphur incorporated into proteins (S-protein) was not affected. A highly significant ($p{\leq}0.001$) relationship between S-sulphate and S-amino acid was observed whereas the increase of N-amino acids is closely associated with decrease of N-proteins. These data indicate that increase of sulphur and nitrogen incorporated into amino acids was from different nitrogen and sulphur metabolites, respectively

The purpose of this study is to analyze the service area of emergency medical centers using GIS-based spatial analysis methods in Seoul, focusing on the behaviour of patients on the choosing of emergency centers. For this analysis, six emergency centers were selected to collect data for the information on the addresses of patients from September to November hi 2003. Analysis on the service area, which was carried out by measuring the distribution of patients in terms of distance from emergency medical centers, clearly reveals that the majority of patients was located within or adjacent districts at the emergency medical center. However, the size of the primary service area f3r six emergency medical centers was much different, implying that the decision to visit specific emergency medical center by patients was closely related to the size, perception, and preference of the emergency medical center. Based on the results of the spatial characteristics of emergency medical service area, this research tries to construct the surface map of the emergency medical service level supplied by 32 regional emergency medical centers located in Seoul. Considering the levels of infrastructure for emergency medical centers, the coverage for the degree of supply of emergency medical service by each emergency medical center was constructed in terms of a distance decaying in the distribution of patients from emergency medical center imposing different weights on distance bands. Spatial overlay utilizing map algebra function was performed in order to calculate total supply level of emergency service. The results clearly show that spatial inequality exists in the supply levels of the emergency medical service among local areas of Seoul.
