차량 애드 혹 네트웍 (VANET)은 모바일 애드혹 네트워크의 일종으로써 차량 간의 임시적인 통신을 가능케 한다. VANET의 모바일 노드는 네트웍의 일원으로 참여하면서 에너지와 자원을 사용한다. 몇몇의 노드는 다른 노드와 협력하는 대신에 자신의 이득만을 취하려고 하는 이기성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 이기성을 가진 노드들로 인해 데이터 접근성과 네트웍의 효율성이 감소하게 된다. 이 논문에서는 새로운 기법인 VANET 그룹에서 이기성을 갖고있는 노드를 제거하는 Friendship-VaR을 제안한다. Friendship-VaR은 이기성을 갖고있는 노드를 제거하고 믿을 수 있는 노드들간에 데이터 공유를 가능케 한다. Friendship-VaR는 간단한 데이터 교환을 통해 노드의 이기성 여부를 결정한다. 실험 결과는 제안한 기법이 기존의 기법에 비해 데이터 접근성이 좋아짐을 보여준다.

The purpose of this study is to extract deficiency areas as basic data of policies and projects in the future Living SOC introduction and planning. In order to extract living SOC deficient areas, accessibility data for living SOC and density data for main users by facility were overlapped, focusing on the living SOC indicators presented in the National Urban Regeneration Basic Policy. According to the analysis of accessibility of the Iksan-si Living SOC, the gap between deficiency in urban and township areas was large in common with the accessibility of the village and local base units. As a result of overlapping life SOC accessibility data and density data analysis of the main users by facility, areas where accessibility is weak but not inhabited by the main users of each facility were extracted. It is meaningful that more accurate deficient areas can be extracted by simultaneously utilizing the density distribution of the main users, rather than simply accessing the facilities.

In this study, we investigated web contents accessibility of 60 hospital web sites in Korea. The eight evaluation criteria were used for estimating the web contents accessibility of the web sites. These criteria were as follows: providing an alternative text, providing caption for moving picture, providing a skip navigation, usage of pop-up windows, usage of a summary or a caption tag for data table, providing a page title, providing a label for online form, and usage of java scripts. K-WAH 3.0 was used for estimating five evaluation criteria. According to Internet web contents accessibility guideline 1.0, we estimated the rest three evaluation criteria manually and described good or bad examples for the evaluation results technically. The results show that the web accessibility of hospital web sites is generally insufficient and the constant interests in improvement for accessibility are urgently needed.

This study attempts at building an integrated GIS computing framework for evaluating space-time accessibility of an individual with the approach of time geography model. The proposed method is based on the integration of mobile GIS and object-relational spatio-temporal database. Three components are central to our system: ( i ) mobile GIS application that transmits spatio-temporal trajectory data of an individual; ( ii ) spatio-temporal database server that incorporates the time geography model; and (iii) geovisualization client that provides time geographic queries to the spatio-temporal database. As for the mobile GIS application, spatio-temporal trajectory data collected by GPS-PDA client is automatically transmitted to the database server through mobile data management middleware. The spatio-temporal database server implemented by extending a generic DBMS provides spatio-temporal objects, functions and query languages. The geovisualization client illustrates 3D visual results of the queries about space-time path. space-time prism and space-time accessibility. This study shows a method of integrating mobile GIS and DBMS for time geography application, and presents an appropriate spatio-temporal data model for evaluating space-time accessibility of an individual.

Background: This study purposed to analyze and understand how spatial accessibility of patients influenced the number of outpatient visits for the internal medicine of a hospital. Methods: A hospital with 100 beds in Seoul, South Korea provided data from 2013 January 1 to 2013 June 30. Euclidean distance and road ares were used to represent the spatial accessibility. Patient level data and dong level data were collected and used in spatial analysis. Dong level data was converted into grid level ($500{\times}500m$) for the multivariate analysis. Hot-spot analysis and generalized linear model were applied to the data collected. Results: Hot-spots of outpatient visits were found around the study hospital, and cold-spots were not found. Number of outpatient visits was varied by the distance between patient resident and hospitals, and about 80% of total outpatient visits was occurred in within the 5 km from study hospital, and 50% was occurred in within 1.6 km. Spatial accessibility had significant influences on the outpatient visits. Conclusion: Findings provide evidences that spatial accessibility had influences on the patients' behaviors in utilizing the outpatient care of internal medicine in a hospital. Results can provide useful information to health policy makers as well as hospital managers for their decision making.

차량 간의 애드훅 네트워크 (VANET)은 모바일 애드훅 네트워크 (MANET)의 일종으로 차량 간의 무선 링크를 통하여 임시적인 정보 전송을 가능케 한다. VANET에서는 차량이 하나의 노드로 참여하면서 정보를 전송한다. 하지만 차량은 빠르게 이동하기 때문에 빈번하게 연결이 끊기게 된다. 이렇게 빈번하게 연결이 끊기기 때문에 차량의 데이터 접근성이 떨어지게 된다. 기존 연구에서는 모바일 애드훅 네트워크 환경에서 데이터 복제본 할당 기법을 통하여 노드의 데이터 접근성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 하지만 기존 연구에서 제안한 중앙 집중식 그룹 방법은 차량 간의 애드훅 네트워크에서는 빠르게 이동하는 차량 때문에 적합하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 데이터 복제본 할당을 분산적인 그룹 방법으로 할 수 있는 TBG (Tree Based Grouping)기법을 제안한다. 노드 자신 만의 TBG를 형성하여 연결의 안정성을 기반으로 데이터 복제본을 할당하여 데이터 접근성을 향상시킨다. 실험 평가를 통해 기존 기법에 비해 데이터 접근성이 크게 향상됨을 보여준다.

Objectives: In spite of the importance of green space for reducing obesity-related problems, there has been little exploration of whether access to green space (e.g., parks and recreational facilities) influences the obesity rate of adults in the United States. The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships among accessibility of green space, obesity rates, and socioeconomic and demographic variables among adults living in the State of Indiana, United States. Methods: We conducted a secondary data analysis to investigate the relationships among accessibility to green space, obesity rates, and socio-demographic variables with employing Geographic Information System in order to measure the accessibility of green space. Results: This study found that accessibility of green space served as a strong predictor of reduced obesity rates among adults (β=-2.478; p<0.10). In addition, adults with higher education levels, as well as better access to green space, were found to have even lower obesity rates (β=-0.188; p<0.05). Other control variables such as unemployment rates, food security, and physical inactivity are additional factors that influence obesity rates among adults. Conclusions: Accessibility of green space may play an important role in facilitating physical activity participation and reducing obesity rates.

Objectives : This study examined the health policy researchers' needs and their accessibility towards health insurance claim datasets according to their academic capacity. Methods : An online questionnaire to capture relevant proxy variables for academic needs, accessibility, and research capacity was constructed based on previous studies. The survey was delivered to active health policy researchers through three major scholarly associations in South Korea. Seven-hundred and one scholars responded while the survey as open for 12 days (starting on December 20th, 2010). Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis were carried out. Results : Regardless of the definition for operational needs, the prevalent needs of survey respondents were not met with the current provision of claim data. Greater research capacity was shown to be correlated with increased demand for claim data along with a positive correlation between attempts to obtain claim datasets and research capacity. A greater research capacity, however, was not necessarily correlated with better accessibility to the claim data. Conclusions : The substantial unmet need for claim data among the healthcare policy research community calls for establishing proactive institutions which could systematically prepare and make available public datasets and provide call-in services to facilitate proper handling of data.
