Geo-based application services linked with the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Web Processing Service (WPS) protocol have been regarded as an important standardized framework for of digital earth building in the web environments. The WPS protocol provides interface standards for analysis functionalities within geo-spatial processing in web-based service systems. Despite its significance, there is few performance tests of WPS applications. The main motivation in this study is to perform the comparative performance test on WPS standards. Test system, which was composed of WPS servers, WPS framework, data management module, geo-based data processing module and client-sided system, was implemented by fully open source stack. In this system, two kinds of geo-based image processing functions such as cloud detection and gradient magnitude computation were applied. The performance test of different server environments of non-WPS, synchronous WPS 1.0 and asynchronous WPS 2.0 was carried out using 100 threads and 400 threads corresponds client users on a web-based application service. As the result, at 100 threads, performance of three environments was within an adjacent range in the average response time to complete the processing of each thread. At 400 threads, the application case of WPS 2.0 showed the distinguished characteristics for higher performance in the response time than the small threads cases. It is thought that WPS 2.0 contributes to settlement of without performance problems such as time delay or thread accumulation.

Many kinds of OGC-based web standards have been utilized in the lots of geo-spatial application fields for sharing and interoperable processing of large volume of data sets containing satellite images. As well, the number of cloud-based application services by on-demand processing of virtual machines is increasing. However, remote sensing applications using these two huge trends are globally on the initial stage. This study presents a practical linkage case with both aspects of OGC-based standard and cloud computing. Performance test is performed with the implementation result for cloud detection processing. Test objects are WPS 2.0 and two types of geo-based service environment such as web server in a single core and multiple virtual servers implemented on OpenStack cloud computing environment. Performance test unit by JMeter is five requests of GetCapabilities, DescribeProcess, Execute, GetStatus, GetResult in WPS 2.0. As the results, the performance measurement time in a cloud-based environment is faster than that of single server. It is expected that expansion of processing algorithms by WPS 2.0 and virtual processing is possible to target-oriented applications in the practical level.

Advancing geo-spatial web technologies and their applications require compatible and interoperable heterogeneous browsers and platforms. Reduction of common or supporting components for web-based system development is also necessary. If properly understood and applied, OGC-based standards can be utilized as effective solutions for these problems. Thus, OGC standards are central to the design and development of web-based geo-spatial systems, and are particularly applicable to web services, which contain data processing modules. However, the application for OGC WPS 2.0 is at an early stage as compared with other OGC standards; thus, this study describes a test implementation of a web-based geo-spatial processing system with OGC WPS 2.0 focused on asynchronous processing functionality. While a binary thresholding algorithm was tested in this system, further experiments with other processing modules can be performed on requests for many types of processing from multiple users. The client system of the implemented product was based on open sources such as jQuery and OpenLayers, and server-side running on Spring framework also used various types of open sources such as ZOO project, and GeoServer. The results of geo-spatial image processing by this system implies further applicability and extensibility of OGC WPS 2.0 on user interfaces for practical applications.

The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of application wide plastic shelter (WPS) in the 'Campbell Early' grape. WPS was developed 30cm wider than standard plastic shelter (SPS; 210cm). Under the plastic shelter, the average daily temperature was $2{\sim}3^{\circ}C$ higher than ambient temperature, but WPS treatment was $0.5{\sim}1^{\circ}C$ higher than SPS treatment. However, relative humidity 15~20% lower than ambient and shown different result between two treatments annually. The occurrence of brown leaf spot disease caused by Pseudocecospora vitis on the vineyard decreased 55.6% (2012) and 17.2% (2013) under WPS than SPS. Grape bunches collected two harvest seasons (2012, 2013), were analyzed fruit quality (total soluble solid; TSS, titratable acidity; TA, berry weight, berry size). In 2012, grapes had no differences in the quality of two treatments, but in 2013, significantly increase $0.4^{\circ}Bx$ of TSS and decrease 0.8% of TA on the WPS than SPS. It suggests that the application WPS reduced the incidence of brown leaf spot disease annually, and then affect to the fruit quality.

IPS 측위는 GPS음영 지역인 실내의 특정 위치 정보를 판단하는 시스템으로 현재 위치에서 발생되는 신호 정보를 수집하는 시스템과 이 신호들로 구성된 실내 측위 지도, 측위 위치를 결정하기 위한 알고리즘 등에 따라 여러 종류로 나누어진다. 대표적인 IPS로 2.4Ghz, 5.0GHz 대역의 무선 신호(WiFi, BLE, Sensor Network, etc)를 활용하는 RF신호 기반 WPS 등이 있다. RF 신호를 기반으로 하는 실내 측위는 발생 기기의 고장, 장애물 발생, 채널 간섭 현상 등으로 인해 측위 시점 수집된 신호와 구축된 지도의 신호 정보가 달라 측위 정확도가 낮아지는 경우가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 언급한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 기존 RF 환경을 사용하는 IPS 방안에 대하여 분석한다. 또한 RF 이외의 실내 측위 기술들에 대해서도 설명하고 측위 정확도를 위해 단일 측위 방식이 아닌 복합 측위 방식에 대한 설계를 제안한다.

Sustaining future wheat production is challenged by anthropogenically forced climate warming and drying led by increased concentration of greenhouse gases all around the globe. Warming stresses, originating from the elevated $CO_2$ concentration, are continuously reported to have negative impacts on wheat growth and yield. Yet, elevated $CO_2$ concentration, despite being disparagingly blamed for promoting warming, is also associated with a phenomenon called $CO_2$ enrichment; in which wheat yield can improve due to the enhanced photosynthesis rates and less water loss through transpiration. The conflicting nature of climate warming and $CO_2$ enrichment and their interplay can have specific implications under different environments. It is established form the field and simulation studies that the two contrasting phenomena would act severely in their own respect under arid and semi-arid environments. Wheat is a dietary staple for masses in Pakistan. The country's wheat production system is under constant stress to produce more from irrigated agricultural lands, primarily lying under arid to semi-arid environments, to meet the rapidly growing domestic needs. This work comprehensively examines the warming impacts over wheat yield and water productivity (WP), with and without the inclusion of $CO_2$ enrichment, under semi-arid environment of Punjab which is the largest agricultural province of Pakistan. Future wheat yields and WPs were simulated by FAO developed AquaCrop model v 5.0. The model was run using the bias-correction climate change projections up to 2080 under two representative concentration pathways (RCP) scenarios: 4.5 and 8.5. Wheat yield and WPs decreased without considering the $CO_2$ enrichment effects owing to the elevated irrigation demands and accelerated evapotranspiration rates. The results suggested that $CO_2$ enrichment could help maintain the current yield and WPs levels during the 2030s (2021-2050); however, it might not withhold the negative climate warming impacts during the 2060s (2051-2080). Furthermore, 10 - 20 day backward shift in sowing dates could also help ease the constraints imposed by climate warming over wheat yields and WPs. Although, $CO_2$ enrichment showed promises to counteract the adverse climate warming impacts but the interactions between climate warming and $CO_2$ concentrations were quite uncertain and required further examination.

WPS(Wearable Personal Station) for next generation PC can define as a core terminal of 'Ubiquitous Computing' that include information processing and network function and overcome spatial limitation in acquisition of new information. As a way to acquire significant dynamic gesture data of user from haptic devices, traditional gesture recognizer based on desktop-PC using wire communication module has several restrictions such as conditionality on space, complexity between transmission mediums(cable elements), limitation of motion and incommodiousness on use. Accordingly, in this paper, in order to overcome these problems, we implement hand gesture recognition system using fuzzy algorithm and neural network for Post PC(the embedded-ubiquitous environment using blue-tooth module and WPS). Also, we propose most efficient and reasonable hand gesture recognition interface for Post PC through evaluation and analysis of performance about each gesture recognition system. The proposed gesture recognition system consists of three modules: 1) gesture input module that processes motion of dynamic hand to input data 2) Relational Database Management System(hereafter, RDBMS) module to segment significant gestures from input data and 3) 2 each different recognition modulo: fuzzy max-min and neural network recognition module to recognize significant gesture of continuous / dynamic gestures. Experimental result shows the average recognition rate of 98.8% in fuzzy min-nin module and 96.7% in neural network recognition module about significantly dynamic gestures.

최근 중소규모 하천은 하천수 및 하천변 지하수 이용의 증가와 토지이용변화 등 유역 내 수문인자의 특성 변화로 인해 하천의 건천화가 점증하고 있어 하천 환경이 악화되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 격자기반의 분포형 장기수문 모델(PGA-CC)을 이용하여 과거 수십년동안 토지이용변화에 따른 하천 건천화 영향을 평가하였다. 실제 건천화가 진행되고 있는 삽교천 상류유역($358.8km^2$)을 선정하였고 토지이용변화분석을 위해 과거 1975년 토지이용도(Past), 현재 2008년 토지이용도(Present)를 구축하였다. 각각의 토지이용 항목 중 변화율이 가장 높은 도시비율은 과거 토지이용도에서는 2.6 %였으며 현재 토지이용도에서는 11.3 %로 8.7 %가 증가하였다. 모델 검보정은 최근 7년(2005-2011)동안 최종유역출구지점에서 유출 검보정을 실시하였다. 그 결과 NSE (Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency)은 평균 0.71로 유출량의 모의값과 실측값이 유효한 것으로 나타났다. 건천화를 평가하기 위해 시험유역에서의 5 WPs (Watching Points)를 선정하여 과거 및 현재 토지이용조건을 모의하고 유황분석을 통한 갈수 변화량 분석을 실시하였다. 건천화 빈도분석을 위해 GEV (Generalized Extreme Value) 갈수빈도분석을 실시하여 과거 토지이용 모의결과 산정된 평균 갈수량($m^3/s$) 이하로 낮아지는 유출량 일수를 계산하였다. 최종유역출구에서 과거 및 현재 토지이용도에서 모의된 평균갈수량은 각각 $3.27m^3/s$ 및 $3.11m^3/s$로 나타났다. GEV 갈수빈도분석결과 과거 토지이용조건에서의 평균갈수량은 $3.20m^3/s$(재현기간 2.33년)으로 나타났다. 도시증가에 따른 인구증가는 지하수 사용량에 증가를 가져온다. 이는, 건천화에 영향을 미치며 본 연구에서는 지하수이용량 자료(1998-2011)를 이용하여 도시면적과 지하수이용량의 선형회귀분석을 실시하여 과거 22년 지하수 사용량을 예측하였다. 그 결과 지하수사용량 증가는 토지이용변화와 복합적으로 상류유역에 하천의 변화를 가속시키는 것으로 나타냈다.

Both Platform as a Service (PaaS) as one of the cloud computing service models and the e-government (e-Gov) standard framework from the Ministry of the Interior and Safety (MOIS) provide developers with practical computing environments to build their applications in every web-based services. Web application developers in the geo-spatial information field can utilize and deploy many middleware software or common functions provided by either the cloud-based service or the e-Gov standard framework. However, there are few studies for their applicability and performance in the field of actual geo-spatial information application yet. Therefore, the motivation of this study was to investigate the relevance of these technologies or platform. The applicability of these computing environments and the performance evaluation were performed after a test application deployment of the spatial image processing case service using Web Processing Service (WPS) 2.0 on the e-Gov standard framework. This system was a test service supported by a cloud environment of Cloud Foundry, one of open source PaaS cloud platforms. Using these components, the performance of the test system in two cases of 300 and 500 threads was assessed through a comparison test with two kinds of service: a service case for only the PaaS and that on the e-Gov on the PaaS. The performance measurements were based on the recording of response time with respect to users' requests during 3,600 seconds. According to the experimental results, all the test cases of the e-Gov on PaaS considered showed a greater performance. It is expected that the e-Gov standard framework on the PaaS cloud would be important factors to build the web-based spatial information service, especially in public sectors.
