  • Recently much attention in building smart factory has been dramatically increased. Despite the growing interest in smart factory, few practical guidelines exist how to successfully build smart factory. The purpose of this study is to postulate and develop a road map for building successful smart factory. To enhance mundane realism, we design the road map through University-Industry research collaboration. Specifically, drawing analysis of University-Industry research collaboration, we design a prototype and detailed road map or building successful smart factory. Moreover, we apply the road map into actual smart factory development. By doing so, we successfully prove the effectiveness of the road map. Therefore, this study provides the valuable guidelines and directions to build a successful smart factory. Ultimately this study is able to help a variety of factories which establish and implement smart factory. Further, we hope that this study will be placed to be an important foundation research on behalf of smart factory building.

  • This paper proposes the design of Vehicular Cyber-Physical Systems (called VCPS) based on vehicular cloud for smart road networks. Our VCPS realizes mobile cloud computing services where vehicles themselves or mobile devices (e.g., smartphones and tablets of drivers or passengers in vehicles) play a role of both cloud server and cloud client in the vehicular cloud. First, this paper describes the architecture of vehicular networks for VCPS and the delay modeling for the event prediction and data delivery, such as a mobile node's travel delay along its navigation path and the packet delivery delay in vehicular networks. Second, the paper explains two VCPS applications as smart road services for the driving efficiency and safety through the vehicular cloud, such as interactive navigation and pedestrian protection. Last, the paper discusses further research issues for VCPS for smart road networks.

  • The SMART Highway project combines road construction with advanced technology and vehicle telecommunications. Its expected outcome is a world-leading intelligent road that is green, fast, and comfortable. A vehicular ad-hoc network(VANET) is the core technology of the SMART Highway, whose transport operation is based on road vehicles. The VANET is a next-generation networking technology that enables wireless communication between vehicles or between vehicles and a road side unit(RSU). In the VANET system, a vehicle accident is likely to cause a serious disaster. Therefore, some information on safety is essential to serve as the key exchange protocol for communication between vehicles. However, the key exchange scheme of the general network proposed for a fast-moving communication environment is unsuitable for vehicles. In this paper, communication between multiple vehicles more efficient and secure key exchange at the vehicle certification by signcryption is proposed.

  • With the recent trend of intelligence and automation of construction work, a double-blade road cutter is being developed that automatically enables cutting along the cutting line marked on the road using a vision system. The road cutter can recognize the cutting line through the camera and correct the driving route in real-time, and it detects the load of the cutting blade in real-time to control the driving speed in case of overload to protect workers and cutting blades. In this study, a vision system mounted on a double-blade road cutter was developed. A cutting route recognition technology was developed to stably recognize cutting lines displayed on non-uniform road surfaces, and performance was verified in similar environments. In addition, a vision sensor protection module was developed to prevent foreign substances (dust, water, etc.) generated during cutting from being attached to the camera.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find cases of using information and communication technology and smart mobility technology in snow removal vehicles and equipment for rapid and efficient road snow removal in the event of a snowstorm, and to find ways to utilize them. Method: Cases of domestic and overseas snow removal methods are investigated, and snow removal operation methods incorporating new technologies are presented. Result: Most of the operation of snow removal equipment in Korea uses GPS, CCTV, and road traffic information systems, and in the case of overseas, road weather information systems and road snow removal monitoring systems are used. It is expected that snow removal technology using autonomous snow removal vehicles, which are smart mobility, will be developed in the future. Conclusion: The results of this study can contribute to the policy of using snow removal equipment and snow removal vehicles of local governments and related organizations.

  • Among all industries, the construction industry still remains a traditional one with low productivity due to its labor-intensive and field-dependent production system, its supplier-oriented industrial structure, and the disruption of the information flow between participants. In addition, the construction industry in South Korea has recently been required to transform itself according to social trends such as aging, the reduction of skilled workers, and the shortening of working hours, and the disaster and death rates in the industry, which are more than twice as high as those in other industries, are making it more necessary to solve chronic safety problems. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to grasp the actual condition of safety management on construction sites in South Korea and analyze cases of K-smart technology utilization for preventing safety accidents on construction sites. The study investigated and analyzed the following. First, construction sites in South Korea were analyzed by type of safety accident, by type of construction, and by construction contract amount. Second, the current status of accidents on small-sized construction sites with a high fatal accident rate and cases of safety accidents on construction sites were investigated. The results of the study are expected to contribute to the dissemination and spread of smart safety technology for not only identifying major factors in safety accidents that occur on construction sites but also preventing workers from suffering accidents.

  • Under the great influence of ICT technology, China is forging ahead steadily and rapidly in the area of smart farming. In the last decade, Chinese government has carried out strategic plans to promote its economic development in agriculture, such as the plan of Made In China 2025 and One Belt One Road initiative. This thesis's objective is to analyze how such plans and initiative can provide 'windows of opportunity' to the development of smart farming industry in China. China led the development of smart agriculture by making a T-shaped rise which is composed with 'One Belt One Road Initiative and Made in China 2025 Plan. This thesis is divided into three types as path-following catch-up, path-skipping catch-up, path-creating catch-upAs this thesis also manages to provide some implications on the export strategies of South Korea's smart farming industry by understanding chinese samrt farm industry.
