The purpose of this study is to develop the evaluation system of which the city safety can be realized in the U-City. The evaluation system on "how much safe the present city is" and "how much safe it will be in the future" has been selected and the criticality has also been analyzed. The result of criticality analysis is that the indicator for "how safe the current city is" showed that the disaster prevention and environmental field are important. In the future, the indicator of possibility for the U-safe city should be prepared by the imtegrative operation management system, and on the basis of this, it also showed that the necessary indicator to build the system for keeping the safe city is important. The evaluation system for the U-safe city, hereafter, can be utilized for the city plan, construction, operation, and management utilized by IT in local government.

u-방재City는 첨단 IT 인프라를 기반으로 유비쿼터스기술과 단위서비스를 활용하여 시민이 안전하고 편안하게 생활할 수 있도록 재난으로부터의 피해를 최소화한 도시이며, u-방재City 서비스란 도시의 지능화된 기반시설과 정보통신망을 활용하여 재난상황을 상시 모니터링하고, 이를 통해 재난의 사전 예방과 상황 발생 시 신속한 대응이 가능하도록 하는 서비스로 정의된다. 이러한 u-방재City 서비스는 지역간 서비스간 상호 운용성 확보가 매우 중요하며 국가재난관리의 큰 틀 내에서 추진되어야 하는데, 이를 위해서는 지역의 재난발생 특성과 서비스 수요 및 인프라 여건 등을 종합적으로 조사 분석하여 서비스 모델을 개발하여야 한다. 본연구는 u-방재City 서비스의 체계적인 개발과 효율적인 운영을 위해 지역의 재난발생 특성과 재난관리 업무현황, 서비스 제공을 위한 인프라 여건, 서비스 수요 및 요구사항 등을 조사 분석하고, 이를 토대로 u-방재City 서비스 개발 및 운영 방향을 제시함을 목적으로 한다.

The concept of "ubiquitous" has become the top issue of the 21st century communications field within the past years. u-City has become the new city paradigm with the convergence of city planning and ubiquitous communication technologies and services. Starting from 2004, KT has collaborated with the Korean government to develop comfortable, convenient, pleasant, safe, and healthy IT technology based u-City focusing on; balanced development, value creation, and improved standard of living within the region. Presently the term, "hazard mitigation services" lacks a clear definition due to its varying applications by different local agencies and has caused confusion. Therefore, this report will clarify and define u-City hazard mitigation services currently proposed to the local agencies as well as services currently in effect. Additionally, the report will introduce hazard mitigation service models feasible by KT.

This Study is U-City based facilities analysis procedures and techniques of the effective management. We analyze the existing procedure of the management of urban based facilities. And U-City based facilities of management procedures were presented. U-City based facilities were classified regular inspection, safety inspection, emergency inspection, accurate safety diagnosis, routine work and emergency work. We analyze the skills required in the management of these facilities. The procedures for the management of U-City based facilities will improve efficiency of urban management and safety of citizen. As a result, the management of U-City based facilities will lead to improving the quality of services for citizens and competitiveness of the city. Furthermore, this will be the foundation of the environment that people can enjoy safe and convenient life.

With the advent of u-City(ubiquitous city) concept, the importance of urban management has been increased. GIS is a foundation for the efficient urban management and an essential technology for the development of u-City. u-City, which aims for convenient, safe, healthy, and comfortable life, provides diverse services based on advanced information technologies, and it will offer more services in the future. u-City integrated management platform enables the ease of service development, guarantees the quality of services for the resident, and provides organic information sharing. Moreover, the platform by integrating GIS and other common management functions, makes possible efficient urban management. In this paper, required functions of u-City integrated management platform for u-City service were analyzed. As a result, GIS module for management of street lights and supervision of fire was developed and the application usability of u-City integrated management platform was verified by service simulation.

Recently, many papers and researches deal with ubiquitous environment and electrical devices for USN/RFID. However, lack of research for power system, which is supplied electrical energy to the electrical device and is communicated with devices, under u-City environment. This paper describes the development of electrical power supply equipment, which is safe and stable for users and communicate with each others, for ubiquitous environment and communication protocols.

This study started with necessity of historical spatial planning skills in U-city planning. Though U-city technology and information are very important, U-city development should be considered on the base of various experience of spatial planning. This study explored spatial planning indexes change in the recent newtown plans. In particular, safety and security were intensively analyzed. In addition, many theories on safe urban space, ubiquitous technology, traditional defensible space, and CPTED (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design) are compared. The findings are as follows. First, each planning is not integrated and there is lack of network among each planning. Specifically, from the crime prevention perspective, there is only mechanical monitoring such as CCTV without architectural approach. Even though CCTV is social needs, it is necessary to adopt it with architectural environment in order to improve the synergy effect of spatial planning and non-spatial planning.

2010년 4월을 뜨겁게 달군 천암함 사태 때 사고 수색을 위해 생계인 조업도 포기하고 달려온 '98 금양호'가 침몰하였지만 금양호에 탑재된 조난 위치 자동발신장치는 1세대 탐색구조 단말기로 GPS 수선이 되지 않는 신호 장치였다고 한다. 만일 GPS 수신기가 탑재된 탐색구조 단말기가 설치되어 있었다면 상황은 달라졌을 것이다. 이와 같이 국가기반 재난뿐만 아니라 사회적 재난에 대한 대책마련이 중요시 되고 있다. 이에 u-방재 City 모델, u-Safe Korea 등 안전 및 방재에 관한 다양한 가이드 라인이 마련되고 있다. 본 고에서는 u-방재 서비의 개념 및 현황, u- 방재 서비스와 기술 동향에 대하여 기술하고자한다.

A criticality safety analysis was performed for the APR-1400 spent fuel pool region-II to ensure the safe storage of spent fuel, with credit taken for depletion and in-rack neutron absorbers (Metamic panels). PLUS7 fuel assembly was modeled using TRITON-NEWT of SCALE-6.1. The burnup-dependent cross-section library was generated under limiting core-operating conditions with 5%-w U-235 initial enrichment. MCNP5 was used to evaluate the neutron multiplication factor in an infinite array of rack cells with the axially nonuniformly burnt PLUS7 assemblies under normal, abnormal, and accident conditions; including all biases and uncertainties. The main purpose of this study is to investigate reactivity variations due to the critical depletion and reactor operation parameters. The approach, assumptions, and modeling methods were verified by analyzing the contents of the most important fissile and the associated reactivity effects. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) guidance on k-eff being less than 1.0 for spent fuel pools filled with unborated water was the main criterion used in this study. It was found that assemblies with 49.0 GWd/MTU and 5.0 w/o U-235 initial enrichment loaded in Region-II satisfy this criterion. Moreover, it was found that the end effect resulted in a positive bias, thus ensuring its consideration.

The purpose of the study focuses on increasing dangers of using smartphones while driving recently, and then is to come up with measures to reduce traffic accidents caused by using devices like a smartphone. This study conducted a survey of drivers using their smartphones while driving to understand risks caused by using a smartphones while operating vehicles. Results showed that a lot of activities may lead to distracted driving, such as texting, making phone calls, using GPS or road maps, game, etc. In this paper, we presented that functions of smartphone should be controlled partially while driving for safe driving performance. These results suggest that using IoT-based smart devices like a beacon and a smartphone application implemented, tentatively called "Safe driving solution", while driving can reduce traffic accidents. Thus, in order to effectively prevent dangerous driving due to the use of smartphones, a "Safe driving solution" which restricts all functions except for calls and driver assistance functions is suggested.
