  • For a quick and easy way of writing Hangul in hand-held devices, we analyzed the combination rules of Hangul alphabets that we constructed a small set of Hangul alphabets that combines a whole set of Hangul alphabets. Hangul consonants are generated from base set of consonants with function keys and vowels are constructed from eight base set of vowels by combination rules and stroke-adding rules. Especially, we adopted an easy error-correction method to resolve the inconvenience of using a delete key for vowel harmony errors. Futhermore, we diversified the input method of diphthongs for user-friendliness by minimizing the efforts of teaming vowel combination rules. We compared our method with previous methods of 'Chon-Ji-In' and 'Na-Rat-Keul' that the proposed method is better than the previous methods in input speed and error correction functionality.

  • Culture is not only a factor of a life worthy of man, but also that of beauty and fluency of life,so it works as a key to show differences in the quality of life. Paying attention to culture, which plays a role to create new things, is a source of high-added value. The term of cultural contents was derived in21C, combining digital skills with art. We are going to reconstruct and develope cultural properties such as remains, pottery, pictures, as a way of restoration for cultural contents with the view of reinterpretation. In this paper, we reinterpreted the pictures which were based on three particular elements in Chosun Dinasty- poetry, handwriting, and picture, and we produced 3D objects after analyzing texts and images in multimedia works applied with source pictures. As a highlighted method of restoration for cultural contents, we produced the work which can be interacted and has three dimensional objects getting out of appreciating of plane images. We presented a method of informing our culture with 3D Mong-yu-do-won-do, which used traditional paintings by being improved user friendliness and accessibility.

  • PMS(Pavement Management System) has been developed and/or operated for the freeway and national highway systems in Korea. There is, however, no municipal PMS that is necessary in many cities for efficient management of their roadways. In this study, a municipal Prototype PMS is developed. The Prototype PMS is designed to be operated on PC base. It uses GIS interface for user friendliness that applies color graphics, text and distress pictures to display pavement conditions and rehabilitation information for both current and historical situations. The computer program of the prototype PMS consists of four major functions(inquiry, analysis, data management, and print). Especially, prioritization and M&R(Maintenance and Rehabilitation) alternative selection procedure is designed to be flexible so that the users can modify the decision criteria whenever it is necessary. Database items of the Prototype PMS is carefully selected for the objectives and size of municipal PMS. Reference point method is basically used for the location referencing in the Database. The unit section consists of each loom segment of the road for effective management.

  • This article contains three objectives. First it is to revise unnecessary procedures of a transportation models and transform results of a model into an image. Second objectives is to develop an operational structures which automatically input all data needed from arc-node topology to link-node topology of transportation network. By solving the network discrepancy, time and money for constructing to transportation can be saved. In addition, the rate of errors that my caused during data input process can be reduced. Conclusively, it is found that the integration package may provide user friendliness and reduce the rate of errors. The package can extract informations such as distance between zones and nodes, lane numbers, and hierarchy from arc-node topology for executing SDI. Another advantage of integration is the ability of spatial analysis. The integrated package may provide adequate arrangements of traffic facilities and checking systems of the shortest path. Finally, the database function of GIS package provides various information about study area for transportation analysis.

  • Using ArcGIS Model Builder, with emphasis on the importance of ecology and user friendliness, a model for site selecting tool is developed. This tool is developed by establishing standardized method for data selection and analysis with evaluation criteria using GIS. For this task, our first action was to objectively define and establish 18 elements to evaluate the potentiality of the site based on extensive literature reviews. These 18 elements reflect environmental, social/cultural and legal aspects that may influence the decision process to select the desired site. Secondly, using ArcGIS Model Builder, 18 analytical elements were made into thematic mapping which represent systematically organized graphic input to the model with automatic double check system and overlay analysis capability. Thirdly, to validate the effectiveness of the developed model, site location analysis was performed using the actual site, Buk-ku, Pohang.

  • The multimedia traffic of continuous video and audio data via streaming service accounts for a significant and expanding portion of the Internet traffic. This streaming data delivery is mostly based on RTP with UDP. However, UDP does not support congestion control. For this reason, UDP causes the starvation of congestion controlled TCP traffic which reduces its bandwidth share during overload situation. In this paper, we propose a new TCP-friendly rate control scheme called 'TF-RTP(TCP-Friendly RTP)'. In the congested network state, the TF-RTP exactly estimates the competing TCP's throughput by using the modified parameters. Then, it controls the sending rate of the video streams. Therefore, the TF-RTP adjusts its sending rate to TCP-friendly and fair share with competing TCP traffics. Through the simulation, we prove that the TF-RTP correctly estimates the TCP's throughput and improves the TCP-friendliness and fairness.

  • This paper suggests a multi-agent message transport architecture based on the message-oriented middleware ZeroMQ. Compared with the other middlewares such as CORBA, Ice, and Thrift, ZeroMQ receives a good score in the evaluation of performance, QoS (Quality of Service), patterns, user friendliness, and resources. The suggested message transfer architecture borrowed many basic concepts like agent platform, AMS (Agent Management System), and MTS (Message Transfer System) from FIPA (Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents) standard multi-agent specifications, and the architecture inherited the strength of the architecture from the multi-agent framework SMAF (Smart Multi-Agent Framework). The architecture suggested in this paper is a novel peer-to-peer architecture which is not known to the ZeroMQ community. In the suggested architecture, every MTS agent uses only one ZeroMQ router socket to support peer-to-peer communication among MTS agents. The suggested architecture can support closely collaborating software areas such as intelligent robots as well as the traditional application areas of multi-agent architecture. The suggested architecture has interoperability and scalability with the ZeroMQ devices and patterns.

  • Smart Grids are intelligent next generating Electric Power System (EPS) that provide environment-friendliness, high-efficiency, and high-trustworthiness by integrating information and communication technology with electric power technology. Smart grids help to supply power more efficiently and safely than past systems by bilaterally exchanging information between the user and power producer. In addition, it alleviates environmental problems by using renewable energy resources. However, smart grids have many cyber security risks because of the bilateral service, the increase of small and medium-sized energy resources, and the installation of multi-sensors or control devices. These cyber risks can cause critical problems within a national grid through even small errors. Therefore, in order to reduce these risks, it is necessary to establish a cyber security strategy and apply it from the developmental stage to the implementation stage. This thesis analyzes and recommends security strategy in order to resolve the security risks. By applying cyber security strategy to a smart grid, it will provide a stepping-stone to creating a safe and dependable smart grid.
