Understanding the readability of texts in signs is necessary to enhance the communication effectiveness of the self-guided interpretive signs. This study compared signs' readability by different text attributes. A total of 1391 respondents participated in the questionnaire survey at the 'Neodeolgeong' area in Mudeung-Mountain Provincial Park during September-November of 2004. This study found that 'Hy Gyunmyungjo' in letter style, 'both-side' in letter justification, 190% (HWP 2002) in space between lines, 10 (HWP 2002) in space between letters, and 25 in the number of letters in a line showed the highest readability in text size 58 point, respectively. This study illustrated an example of an interpretive sign made up by combing the five text attributes which show the highest readability. This study also discussed the interpretive signs' text design and future research questions.

This study examined effects of self-esteem, life satisfaction and gender on the sign needs which included self-presentation(presenting true-self and ideal-self) and social interaction (feeling connected and gaining approval) for Facebook use. Due to the significant interaction effects of gender, further statistical analyses were conducted. While there were negative relationships between self-esteem and self-presentation for male respondents, there were positive relationships between self-esteem and social interaction for female respondents. In addition, there were positive relationships between life-satisfaction and self-presentation for male respondents, but there was the only positive relationship between life satisfaction and presenting true-self for female respondents. Based on the study results, the study implications, limitations and future study were discussed.

Nowadays, the most of commercial buildings are build-out with complex architecture and decorated with more complicated interiors of buildings so establishing intelligible escape routes becomes an important case of fire or other emergency in a limited time. The commercial buildings are already equipped with multiple exit signs and these exit signs may create confusion and leads the people into different directions under emergency. This can jeopardize the emergency situation into a chaotic state, especially in a complex layout buildings. There are many research focused on implementing different approached to improve the exit sign system with better visual navigating effects, such as the use of laser beams, the combination of audio and video cues, etc. However the digital signage system based emergency exit sign management is one of the best solution to guide people under emergency situations to escape. This research paper, propose an intelligent evacuation route GUIDE that uses the combination centralized Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and digital signage for people safety and avoids dangers from emergency conditions. This proposed system applies WSN to detect the environment condition in the building and uses an evacuation algorithm to estimate the safe route to escape using the sensor information and then activates the signage system to display the safe evacuation route instruction GUIDE according to the location the signage system is installed. This paper presented the prototype of the proposed signage system and execution time to find the route with future research directions. The proposed system provides a natural intelligent evacuation route interface for self or remote operation in facility management to efficiently GUIDE people to the safe exit under emergency conditions.

Background: The Life-Sustaining Treatment Decision-Making Act has allowed anyone aged 19 or older to sign an Advance Directive not to receive life-sustaining treatment when they are in the 'death process'. Recently, the Korean Pharmaceutical Association announced to raise awareness of the Advance Directive to the general public through community pharmacies across the country. This study aimed to investigate the public's willingness to accept pharmacist's consultation regarding the Advance Directive and to present future directions to pharmacists Methods: This cross-sectional questionnaire study using 16-items was conducted in adults, Study subjects were recruited by convenience sampling method during August 5-15, 2020. Results: Of 460 respondents, 51.7% were younger than 30-year-old and 58.7% were not in the healthcare field in terms of job or major. 60.2% knew about the Advance Directive and 81.7% agreed the necessity to sign when healthy. 50.0% had the willingness to consult with pharmacists on the Advance Directive for well-dying and 80.4% preferred verbal explanation together with written information. Simple linear regression analysis results showed a significant relationship between trust in pharmacists or satisfaction with pharmacist's communication and willingness to use pharmacist' consultation on the Advance Directive (1-point increases in values measured on a five-point scale are associated with 0.464 and 0.486 increases, respectively.) Conclusion: This study suggests that pharmacists need to improve the public's trust and communication capability to satisfy with public's demands on well-dying service.

This study verified the performance change of a LiDAR when it detects road signs, which are potential cooperation targets for an autonomous vehicle. In particular, road signs of different colors and materials were produced and tested in controlled rainfall on the real road environment. The NPC and intensity were selected as the performance indicators, and a T-Test was used for comparison. The study results show that the performance of LiDAR for the detection of road signs was reduced with the increase of rainfall. The degradation of performance in retroreflective sheets was lesser than painted road signs, but at the amount of 40 mm/h or more, the detection performance of retroreflective sheets deteriorates to an extent that data cannot be collected. The performance level of black paint was lower than that of other colors on a clear day. In addition, the white sheet was most sensitively degraded with the increase in precipitation. These performance verification results are expected to be utilized in the manufacturing of road facilities that improve the visibility of sensors in the future.

In this study, users of the display system designed for the conference hall were evaluated as an example of a temporary space marking system for vaccination at a COVID-19 vaccination center in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province.Unlike ordinary space, temporary space display systems organize space on a limited schedule, so it is necessary to properly place and communicate information about space and processes in the display design to users. Therefore, a paper description manual, a wall display panel, and a floor path tape were provided and deployed to users of the inoculation session. The results of user evaluations show that for specific users over 60 years of age, a file (information display system) that conveys the overall information about the space and process is effective for vaccination. This result is expected to serve as a reference to how and how the display system will be installed in a temporary space in the future.

Zhàn-shì is divided into the process of getting $gu{\grave{a}}$(64卦) by doing dié-shī and the process of predicting the future by interpreting it. And zhàn-shì is implicitly presupposed before these two courses that there is some kind of information about the future in $gu{\grave{a}}$ which is obtained by doing dié-shī. Otherwise, Interpretation of the $gu{\grave{a}}$ becomes fundamentally invalid. Therefore in this paper the writer tried to clarify how some kind of information about the future can be embedded in $gu{\grave{a}}$ which is obtained by doing dié-shī in zhàn-shì, that is, the basis on which Zhàn-shì can be available. And this study in relation to this subject approaches in a way that it keeps track of what 'tiānmìng(天命)' in Zhōuyì means which can be the only clue. So this paper reveals that 'tiānmìng' becomes '$gu{\grave{a}}$ which is obtained by doing dié-shī', and this again becomes 'a sign or indication related to the future which someone wants to know'. 'To know tiānmìng'[zhīmìng(知命)] is to know signs or indications related to the future which someone wants to know. These three are in mutual equivalence relation. And this paper basically requires that someone should concentrate his consciousness on the desirous thing but should not intend it in the process of doing dié-shī in order 'to receive tiānmìng'[shòumìng(受命)]. Therefore, it is clarified that there is some kind of information about the future in $gu{\grave{a}}$ which is obtained by doing $di{\acute{e}}-sh$. 'some kind of information about the future' is 'signs or indications related to the future which someone wants to know'.
