The Location Based Service is growing rapidly nowadays due to the universalization of the use for smartphone, therefore the location determination technology has been placed in an important position. This study suggests a method that can provide the estimate of users' location by using PDR method and smartphone geomagnetic sensor data. This method assists the measure of enhancing the accuracy of indoor localization. Moreover, it is to study ways to provide the exact indoor layout for evacuating the workers in emergency such as fires and natural disasters.

It is usual practice to ballast a sip to maintain requires operational safety at sea. However, excessive ballasting may reduce the operational economy of a ship. Therefore, The determination of the optimal location and quantity of ballast water is one of the important works at the preliminary design stage. To provide a convenient tool to ship designers the program for the determination of the optimal location and program the effect of the change of ballast water quantity in each tank on some characteristics of a ship, such as trim, initial stability and heel, is investigated and the minimum quantity of ballast water for each tank which satisfies the operational safety requirements is calculated.

This paper proposes a reliable high-precision positioning system that converges a satellite navigation system and a vision system in order to resolve position errors and outdoor shaded areas, two disadvantages of a satellite navigation system. In kinematic point positioning, the number of available satellite navigation systems changes in accordance with a moving object's position. For location determination of the object, it should receive location data from at least four satellite navigation systems. However, in urban areas, exact location determination is difficult due to factors like high buildings, obstacles, and reflected waves. In order to deal with the above problem, a vision system was employed. First, determine an exact position value of a specific building in urban areas whose environment is poor for a satellite navigation. Then, identify such building by a vision system and its position error is corrected using such building. A moving object can identify such specific building using a vision system while moving, make location data values, and revise location calculations, thereby resulting in reliable high precision location determination.

In this paper, we propose the location determination system of an agent mobile device using the information provided by the WLAN(Wireless LAN) infrastructure. This system is configured as a typical ESS(Extended Service Set)-type WLAN structure with real-time location positioning engine and thru AP(Access Point) controller. The positioning engine collects the information of agent devices using SNMP(Small Network Management Protocol) thru AP controller and utilize those information as Cell ID. for LBS(Location Based Service). In the result of a real office environment implementation, the average success rate of inter-AP roaming is measured to 62.5% and the duration time of the device information update within the AP is average of 11 second of time, which means this system is adaptable to the location based service of above average accuracy but somewhat less urgency.

Due to environmental, economical and the other limitations, it has been more difficult to construct new large hydraulic structure such as dam. For this reason, it has been tried to use small hydraulic structure such as washland as alternative of hydraulic facility. Because the flood control effect of small hydraulic structure are affected by runoff volume, hydrograph, storage capacity and weir crest elevation, and design frequency must be predetermined for the design of the hydraulic structure. Multiple washlands will be required to satisfy enough peak reduction effect so that considering washlands as a network, rather than individually, are critical to analysis of flood reduction effect. In this study, new index for determination of optimal location for washlands is presented and the existing model for this determination is modified by adopting the new index. Developed new model is applied to Ansung river basin for examination and the new model shows its' applicability as a decision making criteria for the determination of optimal location for washlands.

Because the distribution systems experience frequently the fault by several causes, the identification task of fault location plays very important role in the view point of power supply reliability. The distribution systems are designed as radial structure with three-phase and single-phase branch line to supply the electric power to the widely dispersed loads, and it have a several load taps within each line segment. it makes the accurate fault distance determination difficult. Accordingly in this papers, the existing fault point determination methods are surveyed and analyzed, and then a fault distance determination method for distribution feeder is adopted which can be executed effectively in DAS center. Finally, the adopted method is verified using EMTP simulation.

Shortest path problems are among the most studied network flow optimization problems, with interesting applications in various fields. One such field is the route determination service, where various kinds of shortest path problems need to be solved in location-based service. Our research aim is to propose a route technique in real-time location-based service (LBS) environments according to user's route preferences such as shortest, fastest, easiest and so on. Turn costs modeling and computation are important procedures in route planning. We propose a new rest modeling method for turn costs which are traditionally attached to edges in a graph. Our proposed route determination technique also has an advantage that can provide service interoperability by implementing XML web service for the OpenLS route determination service specification.

The most important criteria of quality of meshing and contact of gears are the low level of noise and the sufficient dimensions and location of the contact. A new approach for determination of machine-tool settings for spiral bevel gears is proposed. The proposed settings provide a function of transmission errors, the desired location and orientation of contact. The function is able to absorb piece-wise linear functions of transmission errors that are caused by the gear misalignment and to reduce the gear noise. The determination of pinion machine-tool settings is based on the local synthesis of gears. A computer program for simulation of meshing bearing contact and determination of transmission errors for misaligned has been developed.

Location Based Services, or LBS refers to value-added service by processing information utilizing mobile user location. With the rapidly increasing wireless internet subscribers and world LBS market, the various location based applications are introduced such as buddy finder, proximity and security services. As the killer application of the wireless internet, the LBS has preconsidered technology about location determination technology, LBS middleware server for various application, and diverse contents processing technology. This paper describes the open architecture for LBS platform ensuring interoperability among the wireless networks and various location-based application services and the functional requirements for the LBS platform. The LBS platform in a narrow sense provides a standard interfaces for location management and network management for location services as follows, positioning (location acquisition through network or/and handset), location managing, location based functions, profile management, authentication and security, location based billing, information roaming between carriers and the system monitoring independent to specific network or ISP/CPs(Content Providers).

Recently, the technologies related with location-based services have been a promising and vigorously researched area in mobile telecommunication industry. LBS have obtained increasingly high attention particularly in domestic area, due to increases in various LBS services supplied by mobile telecommunication companies. LBS technologies are classified by sub-technology such as location determination technology, LBS platform technology, and LBS application services technology. In this paper, I have examined the trend of LBS technologies by analyzing the issued or published patents from 1991 to 2005. The analyzed results are very useful for avoiding overlapping efforts in developing the LBS related technologies, and searching the direction of development of technologies which are different from previous ones.
