The service level of Metro stations is affected by the design criteria such as platform area, width and length of stairways, and the number of turnstile, etc. The Korean station design process utilizes peak-hour volume as design volume. Hourly volume, however, can not explicitly account for the variation of traffic and consequently the variation of the level of service within the one-hour time period. Movements in various areas inside of stations are simulated with a queueing network under various operating conditions. A discrete simulation tool called SIMUL8 was utilized. Based on the results, peak volume for 15 minutes period was recommended as a preferred base volume over the peak-hour volume for station design purpose to realistically account for user delays under. Simulation runs also confirmed that escalators have positive effects on passenger processing capacity and on securing stability of passenger flows in stations.

Based on twelve observational stations low meteorological visibility (LMV) data during November 2002 to April 2003, the spatial distribution of LMV over Hongkong area (113.8$^{\circ}$ E-114.4$^{\circ}$ E, 22.1$^{\circ}$ N-22.4$^{\circ}$ N) is studied, using a PCA method. Optical spectrum of NOAA-16 associated with LMV shows that the significant effect factors correlated with LMV in the leading mode are the difference or rate between the visible and near-IR channels and single visible channel. A successful retrieval of LMV is done and a regression equation with a multiple correlation coefficient of 0.67 is obtained.

Reinforcement learning is an area of machine learning that studies how an intelligent agent takes actions in a given environment to maximize the cumulative reward. In this paper, we propose a new MAC protocol based on the Q-learning technique of reinforcement learning to improve the performance of the IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN CSMA/CA MAC protocol. Furthermore, the operation of each access point (AP) and station is proposed. The AP adjusts the value of the contention window (CW), which is the range for determining the backoff number of the station, according to the wireless traffic load. The station improves the performance by selecting an optimal backoff number with the lowest packet collision rate and the highest transmission success rate through Q-learning within the CW value transmitted from the AP. The result of the performance evaluation through computer simulations showed that the proposed scheme has a higher throughput than that of the existing CSMA/CA scheme.

The registration rate of eco-friendly vehicles, such as hydrogen vehicles, is increasing rapidly, however, few first responders have experienced related accidents. Accident scenarios at hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen vehicles on a road were investigated, and the relative importance of each scenario was analyzed using AHP analysis. Leakage, jet flame, and explosion that occurred inside and outside the hydrogen refueling station were reviewed, and the hydrogen gas explosion in the compartment showed the highest importance value. In case of the hydrogen vehicle, traffic accident statistics and actual accidents were used. It was analyzed that the hydrogen vessel explosion on the road due to the failure of TPRD and the leakage in the underground parking area were difficult to respond. The developed accident scenarios are expected to be used for first responder training.

A wireless sensor network is the combination of a large number of deployed sensors over an area. Communication between the sensors is the most important factor for a successful sensor network. It is mandatory that long distance and multi-hop communication will occur between sensors. Generally sensors relay the sensed data of a particular territory to the command center via a base station. For the non uniformed deployment of sensors many sensors may deploy in hostile areas surrounded by full of obstacles or in other condition it may be out of the direct communication range of the base station. It seems a critical problem for routing data to and from those sensors to the base station. This paper proposes a route management scheme using a dynamic load balancing approach based on residual energy of each agent sensors.

If landscape is formed from quiet identity the place possesses, the problem of landscape in the garden Atlantique face the problem of the identity. Therefore, this study examined the identity of the garden Atlantique in the co-relationship between th garden and landscape. The garden 'Atlantique' was made on a rectangular slate roof at the Montparnasse station in Paris, France in 1994. The garden is bounded on all sides by the buildings of the mixed business and residential area that surround the station. Before the flat slate roof above the platform and parking structure was installed there was no garden. Because the slate roof area was the only area that the garden could be built, it was necessarily restricted in design and seems to have little or no visual relation to its surroundings. As two elements to understand the garden Atlantique, a recognition of esthetic system of landscape around and understanding of physical environment of the site are required. Therefore, this study tried to know how the physical elements of the garden makes the landscape in the relation with the environment and what kind of landscape can be seen in there through the poetics of landscape (une poetique du paysage) and the reculture (la reculture).

This paper introduces TIGS(Touring Information Guidance System) which provides information of the southwestern area of korea with faster access time than the human service. This system is designed specifically for a traveler. This TIGS provides tourists the informations such as destination, current map information, touring courses according to schedules, traffic information and lodging information. furthermore, this system is implemented with touchscreen for the user to apply easily. The shortest path algorithm is applied to schedule the touring courses to refute the time and the cost. The map is raster manner to represent southwestern area of korea instead of vectorial manner. If this developed system should be established in the public space such as station, airport, and bus station, touring will be more comfortable, the total income will more increase. Also, this system can be easily applied to different local area.

With the increasing of impervious area and shortening of travel time, the risk of flooding in urban area becomes a serious problem in Seoul metropolitan area, and its alternatives are needed. In this study, one of urban flood alternatives, a fuzzy control technique is applied in pumping station to test its drainage capacity of inland inflow, and compared with existing pumping criteria (controled by water level). Three design rainfalls(10, 30, and 50 year) are applied to ILLUDAS model to calculate inflow in detention reservoir. To check the efficiency of fuzzy control, two fuzzy rules are used in the operation of pumping station. In these results, fuzzy control rules, based on the experiences of experts, show applicability in practice and effectiveness in inland flooding prevention.

In this paper, we introduce a system and a set of algorithms for disseminating popular content to a large group of wireless clients spread over a wide area. This area is partitioned into multiple cells and there is a base station in each cell which is able to broadcast to the clients within its radio coverage. Dissemination of information in the proposed system is hybrid in nature: Each base station broadcasts a fraction of information in the form of random linear combinations of data blocks. Then the clients cooperate by exchanging packets to obtain their desired messages while they are moving arbitrarily over the area. In this paper, fundamental trade-offs between the average information delivery completion time at the clients and different parameters of the system such as bandwidth usage by the base stations, average energy consumption by the clients and the popularity of the spread information are studied. Moreover different heuristic algorithms are proposed to control and maintain a balance over these trade-offs. Also, the more complicated case of multiple sessions where each client is interested in an arbitrary subset of sessions is considered and two variants of the basic dissemination algorithm are proposed. The performance of all the proposed algorithms is evaluated via extensive numerical experiments.
