The navigation in 3D virtual space is a procedure which must be carefully established in advance with understanding of a complicate perception process. Although current various desktop softwares are suppling developers with easier production circumstances in accordance with popularization era of interactive 3D media it is true that previous systematic conceptual study has been performed exclusively at specific institutions. Therefore, based upon the examples of virtual reality research reported by universities and companies core concepts giving the background for navigation realization and direct/indirect factors supporting substantial realization were analyzed and discussed in this paper.

A system design and realization for video surveillance with interframe probability distribution analyzation is presented in this paper. The system design is based on a high performance DSP professor, video surveillance is implemented by analyzing interframe probability distribution using trivariate normal distribution(weight, mean, variance) for scanning objects in a restricted area and the video analysis algorithm is decided for forming a different image from the probability distribution of several frame compressed by the standardized JPEG. The system processing time of D1$(720{\times}480)$ image per frame is 85ms and enables to process the system at 12 frames per second. An object surveillance about the restricted area by rules is extracted to 100% unless object is moved faster.

The main purpose of this study strongly concerned micro machining error estimation by using FEM analysis of tool deflection shapes in micro flat end-milling process. For the precision micro flat end-milling process, analysis of micro cutting errors is mandatory. In general, tool deflection is a major factor which causes cutting error and limits realization of the high-precision cutting process. Especially, in micro end-milling process, micro tool deflection generates very serious problems in contrast to macro tool deflection. Methods which deal with compensation of cutting error by tool deflection in macro end-milling process have been studied plentifully but, few researches transact with micro scaled cutting tool deflection in micro cutting process. Therefore, the trend of micro tool deflection was estimated by using FEM analysis in this paper. Cutting forces were acquired by micro dynamometer and these were utilized in FEM analysis. In order to verify FEM analysis results, micro machining processes were carried out and real machined profiles were compared with FEM results. Finally through the proposed approach well suited FEM results were obtained.

The recent occurrence of consecutive large earthquakes in the southeastern part of the Korean peninsula has brought significant attention to the prevention of earthquake damage in Korea. This article aims to explore a technology-based approach for earthquake drills using state-of-the-art visual intelligence and virtual reality technologies. The technical process consists of several stages, including acquisition of image information in living spaces using a camera, recognition of objects from the acquired image information, extraction of three dimensional geometric information, simulation of virtual earthquakes using dynamic modelling techniques such as the discrete element method, and realization of the simulated earthquake in a virtual reality environment. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the individual processes at each stage of the technical process, a survey on the current status of related technologies, and discussion of the technical challenges in its execution.

This paper proposes a new fast block-matching algorithm, named MFSS(Modified Four-Step Search) algorithm, which has better performance and is more adequate for hardware realization than the existing fast algorithms. The proposed algorithm is suitable for hardware realization since it has a unique regularity during the search procedure. It is shown from simulation results that its performance is close to that of FS(Full Search) algorithm. This paper also proposes a VLSI architecture and presents some design results of a motion estimator and compensator which adopted the MFSS algorithm. The important aspects considered in designing a motion estimator and compensator are hardware complexity of design results, and total delay needed to generate the motion compensated data after finding the motion vectors. Hardware complexity is minimized by using just nine PE(Process Element)'s, and total delay is minimized by sharing search memory of the motion estimator and compensator.

A new product development and product realization process (PRP) is a circulating and feedback process by generating ideas through creative problem solving process. The early stages of PRP correspond to conceptual design and product development, in which a large portion of product life cycle cost can be saved. The optimal design method for this stage is a robust design suggested by Taguchi. Quality must be 'engineered in' since it can not be 'inspected out.' A robust design is an engineering methodology to improve the quality of a product by minimizing the efforts of variations without eliminating the causes. The objective of this study is to propose a scheme and a case study of robust design for exploring design parameters, and introduce a creative problem solving process. Major research subjects include a creative problem solving process, robust design procedure and their implementation. For the experiment of Taguchi method, a toy catapult is adopted. For the creativity development, a short project is assigned to devise a similar tool with the toy catapult. A reference model is suggested to compare and evaluate their ideas.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to identify whether the operation of cultural centers in discount stores contributes to their profitability. Thus, this study is aimed at exploring how the lifestyles of customers who use the cultural centers influence their intention to use the discount stores. Specifically, the effect of shopping value on the correlation between the lifestyle types and usage intention of the customers were examined through a structured research model. To verify the effect, a survey on 139 customers of the Cultural Center of Nonghyup Hanaro Club's S branch was conducted and the valid questionnaires were used for analysis. Research design, data, and methodology - The findings are as follows. First, the lifestyles seeking self-realization had a positive effect on utilitarian value, and lifestyles seeking pop cultures had a positive effect on hedonic value. Second, the mediating effect of shopping value on the correlation between the lifestyle types and usage intention of the customers is as follows. Utilitarian value had a mediating effect only on the lifestyles seeking self-realization. In case of lifestyles seeking pop cultures, the use of Cultural Center had no effect on the intention to use the discount store. Third, an analysis of a revised research model revealed that the store usage intention of lifestyles seeking pop cultures can be enhanced by boosting the utilitarian value through hedonic value. Results - The findings suggest the following. Customers with lifestyles seeking self-realization, who value what is beneficial to them with little attention to the perceptions of others, are highly interested in the benefits they can gain from shopping. As for customers with lifestyles seeking pop cultures, they are highly likely to consume products popular in a particular culture such as new products and sports, based on financial stability they pursue. Thus, they prefer more subjective, personal experience, unlike consumers pursuing utilitarian value. Conclusions - As a result, the former pursues hedonic value gained in the process of shopping with fun and joy, rather than doing shopping with a particular purpose in mind. Therefore, Cultural Centers need to offer information that fits the lifestyles of the users so that they are more likely to use the discount stores. However, if the Cultural Centers offer unified, profit-driven products and information, just to increase their store sales, it can backfire, which occurred in the past. On the other hand, if they provide information that fits the lifestyles of the users, it can actually increase the sales. Also, the findings suggest that sophisticated marketing strategies that can boost the hedonic value of customers by linking the educational contents of Cultural Centers to actual shopping, which is beneficial to consumers, should be set and operated by discount stores. In particular, customers with lifestyles seeking self-realization can be encouraged to use the stores by making them recognize the utilitarian value. However, the use of Cultural Centers doesn't necessarily lead to higher sales among customers with lifestyles seeking pop cultures. As mentioned previously, unified marketing strategy is not as effective for Cultural Centers of large discount stores.

In order to enhance the aviation industry in Korea, many strategies have been published by some researchers as well as the government. However, considering the constrained conditions in real, since the ranking of their importance has not determined yet, they are difficult to be implemented by decision makers. Therefore, in terms of their demand for deciding the significance of strategies, the evaluation model of this paper was developed. In this study, the Cross-impact Hierarchy Process(CHP), an linked model of both the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) and Cross Impact Analysis(CIA), was selected as the best model. That is because the strategies are not independent from each other, and one strategy can affect the others depending on its realization, which can be considered in CHP. To achieve our objective, at first, the strategies were categorized and arranged according to the evaluation structure. Secondly, the parameters such as conditional probability and weights were estimated from the survey conducted by 16 experts in the aviation field. Lastly, the result of the assessment were discussed, and further studies were suggested.

Objectives : This study was designed to establish medical trust realization system by finding factors influential to it using questionnaire. Methods : 277 subjects were participated in this study. After a treatment, we conducted a survey from April 1st to October 31th about medical service perception index, medical trust index, patient satisfaction index, patient reliability index, patient flow degree index, recall intension index, and hospital image index. To evaluate the influence of medical service perception with other 6 indexes, we statistically made regression analysis of the results through the survey. Results : By the results of the analysis, evaluation of hospital image influenced all 6 indexes. The systemicity of treatment process had an effect on 5 indexes except for the flow degree of patients. The humanity of medical team brought out the estimation of 4 indexes except for the patient flow degree and hospital image. The empathic ability of doctor and appropriacy of medical costs hold the next rank influencing 3 indexes. It reached the conclusion that the systemicity of medical team tend to determine the medical trust and patient reliability. The expertise, professional skill of doctor, the fault, commercial application, fame of medical team, the speed of treatment process, the newest and clean medical facility affected each one index. Conclusions : Korean medicine should find a way to consider the mind of patients for improving the medical quality through trust realization system, keeping up with times. As a result of this research, we can find out important causes which influence the trustful medical system. From now on, we should apply this result to actual treatment of psychology customized system. Also, more simple and clear questionnaire was organized through this research, it can be used to forward research to apprehend patient mentality more conveniently.
