  • In this study, AHP analysis was conducted on potential residents who are willing or likely to live in a smart city. The purpose is to identify priorities for strategic objectives. In order to establish a hierarchical structure for the vision, core values, and strategic goals of the smart city business, we researched domestic and overseas smart city-related academic papers and research reports, business plans, and institutional websites. After reviewing professors, researchers, experts, and focus groups, 4 2nd tier and 12 3rd tier properties were finally selected and the hierarchical structure was confirmed. As a result of AHP analysis, it was found that residents place the highest importance on quality of life in smart city projects. As a result of the analysis of the lower-level factors, it was found that safety was the most important. The priorities were analyzed in the order of living convenience, eco-friendliness, and social inequality resolution. It is expected that the results of this analysis will be able to suggest strategies to be established when promoting smart city projects in the future.

  • The growth in the number of single-member households is a critical issue worldwide, especially among the elderly. For those living alone, who may be unaware of their health status or routines that could improve their health, a continuous healthcare monitoring system could provide valuable feedback. Assessing the performance adequacy of activities of daily living (ADL) can serve as a measure of an individual's health status; previous research has focused on determining a person's daily activities and extracting the most frequently performed behavioral patterns using camera recordings or wearable sensing techniques. However, existing methods used to extract common patterns of an occupant's activities in the home fail to address the spatio-temporal dimensions of human activities simultaneously. Though multiple sequence alignment (MSA) offers some advantages - such as inherent containment of the spatio-temporal data in sequence format, and rapid identification of hidden patterns - MSA has rarely been used to extract in-home ADL routines. This research proposes a method to extract a household occupant's ADL routines from a cumulative spatio-temporal data log of occupancy collected using a non-intrusive method (i.e., a tomographic motion detection system). The findings from an occupant's 28-day spatio-temporal activity log demonstrate the capacity of the proposed approach to identify routine patterns of an occupant's daily activities and to reveal the order, duration, and frequency of routine activities. Routine ADL patterns identified from the proposed approach are expected to provide a basis for detecting/evaluating abrupt or gradual changes of an occupant's ADL patterns that result from a physical or mental disorder, and can offer valuable information for home automation applications by enabling the prediction of ADL patterns.

  • Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of Jeonbuk tri-pull taping and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) exercise on the shoulder's active range of motion, pain, subluxation, upper extremity function, and activities of daily living in patients with stroke. Methods: In this study, Jeonbuk tri-pull taping and PNF exercise were applied to three patients with stroke and subluxation. The tape was removed and new tape applied for two days every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday over six consecutive weeks. PNF exercise was applied five times a week for six weeks. To measure the range of motion, a smart phone clinometer application was used, and the degree of pain was measured using a visual analogue scale (VAS). A jig measuring method was employed to measure the distance of subluxation. The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) was used to evaluate arm function, and the modified Barthel Index (MBI) was employed to evaluate the activities of daily living. Results: The shoulder's active range of motion was improved in the patients compared to the range of pre-tests, and the pain and subluxation distance were reduced compared to those of pre-tests. Arm function and activities of daily living were increased compared to those of pre-tests. Conclusion: The study results verified that Jeonbuk tri-pull taping and PNF exercise are useful when applied to patients with subluxation and stroke.

  • This study covers the effectiveness of SNS utilization education for the elderly. Participants in the study conducted in-depth interviews with trainees currently participating in education and mentors of the same age who are working as assistive instructors. The study deals with whether SNS utilization education, which is considered difficult, can be a more valid class when an elderly person of the same age becomes a mentor and teaches a class. The results of the study said that it was a fun and rewarding education after using SNS for the elderly, free from fear of difficult devices due to the friendly consideration and empathy of the same age. If a mentor of the same age is used for education on SNS for the elderly, SNS education, which has been considered difficult and burdensome for the elderly, is expected to be activated with more flexible education.

  • Recently, as the importance of forced indoor living has increased in the untact era, the connection and relationship between space environments is increasing. That is, the smart interaction environment for providing services in various spaces collects and processes a number of surrounding environment information through various sensors to provide desired information according to the required place and time. In this environment, a new type of interaction paradigm is needed for the user to select and focus on environmental information. In this paper, we provide guidelines based on models and patterns for designing various interactions around space. Through interaction model-based technology, we provide guidelines for space-oriented interaction design. We propose an ideal interaction environment through guideline-based patterns and templates. Finally, by providing a space-oriented interaction environment suitable for smart interaction, users can freely obtain desired information.
