In recent years, Korean government has focused on improving the environmental impact of products in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to achieve their energy goals. The government has been conducting the following polices such as green procurement inducement and certification system. After carbon labeling was conducted in 2009, among a total of 1,065 items, 97 building materials have been given a certification: finishing materials items have the highest weight (56%). The increase in the certification numbers shows that there has been considerable technical efforts in the building material industry. At the awareness of carbon label and purchase of low carbon product, however, customers are aware of carbon labeling but the purchasing rate of carbon product is low. In this paper, we suggest that low carbon activities must also be considered in order to create client value by adding the concept of ecological efficiency. The objective of this study to measurer the eco-efficiency of carbon labeled building materials on the basis of environmental aspects of the product with the perspective of economy for purchasing the excellent products.

Hybrid Electric Vehicles(HEVs) have seriously come into prevalence recently as car manufacturers and consumers have become more aware of the environmental and economic problems of conventional vehicles. For the alternative power-train and battery cooling systems in HEVs, an effective thermal management system is required, and many automakers are interested in using Brushless DC(BLDC) motors for cooling fans for the overall traction unit's performance and energy saving capability. This paper presents the development status of BLDC motors as major parts of the power-train, i.e. the engine cooling and battery cooling fans of HEVs. A design that uses BLDC motors for the power-train and each battery cooling fan, is successfully implemented through using electro-magnetic analysis, and prototype BLDC motors are examined. As experimental results, the BLDC motors achieved an efficiency of 85% as engine cooling fans and 72% as a battery thermal management fan motor. The electric cogging noise is significantly reduced by changing the skew of the slot pitch angle and optimizing the magnetic shape.

We present the near-infrared spectra (2.5-5.0 um) of shocked $H_2$ gas, observed with the Infrared Camera onboard the satellite AKARI. Two supernova remnants, IC 443 and HB 21, were observed. IC 443 shows a hint of non-equilibrium ortho-to-para ratio (OPR): 2.4 (-0.2, +0.3). HB 21 also shows an indication of a potential non-equilibrium OPR: 1.8-2.0. These non-equilibrium OPRs are first reported for shocked $H_2$ gas at E(v,J) > 7000 K, as far as we are aware. We concluded that the non-equilibrium OPR probably originates from dissociative J-shocks, considering several factors such as the shock combination requirement, the line ratios, and the possibility that $H_2$ gas can form on grains with a non-equilibrium OPR. The difference in the collision energy of H atoms on grain surfaces would give rise to the observed difference between the OPRs of IC 443 and HB 21, if dissociative J-shocks are responsible for the $H_2$ emission. Our study suggests that shocked-then-cooled $H_2$ gas may play as a heat reservoir with the non-equilibrium OPR.

무선센서네트워크는 멀티홉 전송을 통해 데이터 전송이 이루어지며 센서 노드들이 배터리와 같은 한정된 전원으로 작동하기 때문에 에너지 효율적인 라우팅기법이 필요로 된다. 멀티홉 전송에 있어 특정 전송경로로 인해 특정 센서 노드들은 다른 노드보다도 많이 사용되며 이러한 불균형적 전력소모는 전체의 네트워크 생존시간이나 전체적인 사용에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 무선센서네트워크에 사용되고 있는 기존 라우팅 프로토콜의 설계 문제를 비교하고, 최적의 경로를 선택하는 동안 전송 레이트 및 잔량 노드들 모두의 고려하는 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 이 라우팅 프로토콜은 전송 지연을 최소화하고 네트워크의 수명을 연장시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

현재 이동용 장치(Mobile Device)들에서 전력 소모는 사용자들의 요구에 따라 성능 다음으로 중요한 비중을 차지하고 있다. 특히 배터리 셀의 기술 증가에 비해 프로세서들의 성능 및 요구하는 소비전력이 크게 증가함에 따라 프로세서의 전력 소모를 최소화 하는 연구들이 많이 진행되고 있다. 특히 프로세서의 전력 소모가 많은 비중을 차지함에 따라 프로세서의 전력 소모를 낮추기 위한 방법으로 많은 프로세서들은 DVS(Dynamic Voltage Scaling)와 DFS(Dynamic Frequency Scaling)를 지원한다. 실제 프로세서의 전력 소모는 공급전압에 의 제곱에 비례하고 동작 클럭(Clock) 주파수에 비례한다. 그러나 공급전압은 다시 동작 클럭 주파수에 비례함으로써 DVS와 DFS를 지원하는 대부분의 프로세서는 동작 클럭 주파수를 낮춤으로서 많은 전력 소모를 줄일 수 있게 된다. 그러나 동작 클럭 주파수를 낮추게 되면 태스크들의 실행 시간이 길어지게 되어 실시간 시스템에서 실시간성을 보장하지 못하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 상호간에 공유자원을 갖는 태스크들의 실시간성을 보장하며 동작 클럭 주파수를 낮추는 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Device-to-device (D2D) multicast has become a promising technology to provide specific services within a small geographical region with a high data rate, low delay and low energy consumption. However, D2D multicast communications are allowed to reuse the same channels with cellular uplinks and result in mutual interference in a cell. In this paper, an intelligent channel assignment algorithm is designed in D2D underlaid cellular networks with the target of maximizing network throughput. We first model the channel assignment problem to be a throughput maximizing problem which is NP-hard. To solve the problem in a feasible way, a novel channel assignment algorithm is proposed. The key idea is to find the appropriate cellular communications and D2D multicast groups to share a channel without causing critical interference, i.e., finding a channel for a D2D multicast group which generates the least interference to network based on current channel assignment status. In order to show the efficacy and effectiveness of our proposed algorithm, a novel search algorithm is proposed to find the near-optimal solution as the baseline for comparisons. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the network throughput.

Purpose: The hospitality sector is vital to economic development, especially in metropolitan regions, where hotels are a pivotal factor in drawing in leisure and corporate visitors. Despite the potential advantages of urban hotels, there is a gap in empirical studies on the impacts of eco-friendly interior design on hotel appeal and guest behavior. Therefore, this study aims to fill out the research gap. Research design, data and methodology: This study employed a review of the literature systematically as its research design. The study's data collection technique involves exploring peer-reviewed journals through electronic databases like Scopus, and Web of Science. The present author double-checked the quality of instrument for all usable dataset. Results: Prior literature has stated a strong linkage between green interior design in urban hotels and customer behavior and hotel attractiveness. Using environmentally conscious methods, hotels can enhance the quality of their indoor atmosphere, preserve energy and water supplies, and establish a favorable public perception that appeals to environmentally aware consumers, thereby improving their overall experience and contentment. Conclusions: This study concludes that creating indoor spaces with environmental factors in mind could lead to a more enjoyable and beneficial atmosphere for hotel visitors and adopting a sustainability-oriented approach to hotel design and operations could attract potential customers.
