With the rapid advances in automated driving technology, opportunities to experience automated driving directly or indirectly are being provided to the public. On the other hand, research on the preferred automated driving patterns from the user's perspective has not been conducted in Korea. This study used a driving simulator and an experimental vehicle capable of automated driving to evaluate the user satisfaction regarding longitudinal and lateral accelerations. Automated driving patterns were implemented in a virtual environment simulation using five values of longitudinal and lateral accelerations derived from driving experiments. Among these values, three were implemented through experimental vehicle-based automated driving to evaluate satisfaction and anxiety. The participants evaluated lateral acceleration more sensitively than longitudinal acceleration and showed higher levels of anxiety. Based on these results, the necessity of user-oriented evaluation research for automated driving patterns and the suitability of simulator-based evaluation methods were presented.

Since the era of industrial revolution, the waste volume has continued to grow; waste management has thus become one of the major global environmental challenges facing humanities today. Waste treatment and management issues trigger NIMBY movements, and disputes among states, governments, and social actors over the issues have been accelrating. At the level of states and sub-states, various measures including institutions, laws, regulations, market-oriented methods, consensus and collaborative governance have been introduced to address various problems associated with waste. More recently, science and technology has been applied to the waste treatment and management under the notion of circular economy. However, societal support for addressing waste problems still remains inadequate, calling for new approaches and alternative pathways. In this context, this study examines two cases of urban incineration plants designed by Hudertwasser, Austria-born artist and architect: Spittelau, Austria, and Osaka, Japan. Through these case studies, I demonstrate how creative and innovative culture-technology convergence can shed new light on challenging environmental issues such as an urban waste problem.

Design: One group pretest-posttest design Methods: The subjects consisted of 21 elderly people over the age of 65 years with chronic diseases lived in seo-gu, Gwangju. Home-based exercise program was performed twice a week, for an hour, during 6 weeks under supervision of an experienced instructor. The home-based exercise program was structured to last a total of 1 hour, consisting of 10 minutes of warm-up, 30 minutes of main exercises, and 20 minutes of concluding exercises. For the warm-up, we performed range of motion, stretching, and flexibility exercises. The main exercises comprised of strength, weight-bearing and balance exercises, and endurance exercises. The concluding exercises were tailored to the individual's home environment and needs, including task-oriented daily living training such as getting up from bed, moving to the restroom, and walking indoors. The subjects were assessed before and after the exercise program with berg balance scale(BBS), Korean-version modified barthel index(K-MBI), euro quality of life questionnaire 5-dimensional classification(EQ-5D), and geriatric depression scale short form-Korea(GDSSF-K). The collected data was analyzed using SPSS Win 18.0 program. Results: The results showed statistically significant difference in all domains of the BBS, K-MBI, EQ-5D, GDSSF-K after the exercise program. Conclusion: These results suggest that Home-based exercise program has resulted in a significant improvement on ADL, depression and quality of life in elderly with chronic diseases.

The current application of Generative AI in education requires enhancing skills and competencies for both instructors and students in the Age of Digital Formation. The knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for individualized education should be cultivated in schools, along with the ability to develop AI-compatible learning resources. Today's educational environment aligns with the demands of the Generative AI Era. Consequently, there is a need for an educational system that promotes critical thinking and creativity while connecting students to the global context. This study examined the teaching and learning processes, along with educational exploration, to understand the properties of light particles and waves within a competency-based science curriculum. The analysis and research findings aimed at devising a competency-based teaching-learning method for students' understanding of light particles and waves are as follows: First, unit analysis confirmed the significance of competency-oriented education and facilitated the structuring of units on light and waves. Second, qualitative content analysis outlined the procedures for applying conceptual knowledge and functions in experiential learning, as well as the process of feedback delivery. Third, the study highlighted the need for a meticulous approach to inducing problem recognition through inquiry and discussion activities, ensuring that students, when exploring and recognizing problems independently, do not develop misconceptions.

This study attempted to solve the problem that the current safety education contents of Korean fishing vessels are not consistent with the STCW-F Convention and do not properly reflect the actual operating environment of the fishing vessels. Despite the reinforced duty of safety education for fishing vessels after the Ferry Sewol accident, the problem has been pointed out that the effectiveness is still low due to merchant-oriented education contents and uniform education methods. Therefore, this study compared and analyzed laws related to safety education for fishing vessels and the STCW-F Convention, and derived improvement measures by collecting voices from the field through a survey of fishing vessels. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that the current fishing vessel safety education does not take into account the reality of fishing such as fishing vessel type, navigation distance, and ship output, and that the core curriculum required by STCW-F Convention is omitted. In addition, it was found that education content on major accident types that frequently occur along the coast was also insufficient. In order to improve this, this study proposes to re-establish the target of safety education for fishing vessels based on STCW-F Convention related to fishing vessels, and to prepare a segmented education system by reorganizing the training contents to suit reality. In addition, the need to clearly distinguish the education of merchant and fishing vessels through the revision of the Seafarers Act and the Ship Employees Act was suggested, and to establish a safety education system for fishing vessels that meets STCW-F Convention and domestic conditions.

The performance capability of the future battlefield depends on whether the next-generation technology of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, called ABCMS (AI, Bigdata, Cloud, Mobile, Security), can be applied to secure innovative defense capabilities It is no exaggeration to say. In addition, the future military operation environment is rapidly changing into a net work-oriented war (NCW) in which all weapon systems mutually share battlefield information and operate in real-time within a single integrated information and communication network based on the network and is expanding to the scope of operation of the manned and unmanned complex combat system. In particular, communication networks responsible for high-speed and hyperconnectivity require high viability and efficiency in power operation based on multi-tier (defense mobile, satellite, M/W, wired) networks for the connection of multiple combat elements and smooth distribution of information. From this point of view, this study is different from conventional single-media, single-path transmission with fixed specifications, It is an artificial intelligence-based transmission technology using RNN (Recurrent Neural Networks) algorithm and load distribution during traffic congestion using available communication wired and wireless infrastructure multimedia simultaneously and It is the development of MMMP-Multi-Media Multi-Path adaptive network technology.

This study explores the application of Mission Engineering, a concept and methodology adopted by the U.S. Department of Defense, to the Republic of Korea's defense planning and management system in response to the rapidly changing security environment. Through literature review, analysis of prior research and case studies, and focus group interviews (FGI), key elements of Mission Engineering were derived. Based on these findings, improvements for the ROK military's requirements planning and rapid acquisition system were proposed. As a result, three critical elements for applying Mission Engineering were identified: operational concepts, required capabilities, and acquisition. Suggestions for improvement include transitioning to a mission-oriented requirements planning system, applying Mission Engineering methodology when formulating operational concepts, supporting decision-making to shorten acquisition timelines, allocating budgets for rapid acquisition, and strengthening the capabilities of requirement-setting units. This study confirms the necessity and applicability of Mission Engineering and is expected to serve as a foundation for the future development of the defense planning and management system.
