This study derived the algorithm of a public transportation route search that adds safety and environmental costs according to user preference. As the means of an algorithm application and evaluation, Macro Simulation, VISUM was conducted for an analysis. The route using the subway, which is relatively low in safety and environment resistance value was preferred, and it was analyzed to select the safe and environmental route even though it detours. This study can be applicable when to verify the algorithm of route search considering safety and environment, and when introducing the algorithm of route search according to user preference in the smart-phone application in the future, it can provide users with very useful information by choosing a route as for safety and environment, and through this, the quality of user-friendly information provision can be promoted.

Since the safety of nuclear power plant has been becoming a big social issue the exposure dose of radiation for workers has been one of the important factors concerning the safety problem. The existing calculation methods of radiation dose used in the planning of radiation work assume that dose rate does not depend on the location within a work space thus the variation of exposure dose by different work path is not considered. In this study, a modified numerical method was presented to estimate the exposure dose during radiation work in radwaste storage considering the effects of the distance between a worker and sources. And a new numerical algorithm was suggested to search the optimal work path minimizing the exposure dose in pre-defined work space with given radiation sources. Finally, a virtual work simulation program was developed to visualize the exposure dose of radiation doting radiation works in radwaste storage and provide the capability of simulation for work planning. As a numerical example, a test radiation work was simulated under given space and two radiation sources, and the suggested optimal work path was compared with three predefined work paths. The optimal work path obtained in the study could reduce the exposure dose for the given test work. Based on the results, tile developed numerical method and simulation program could be useful tools in the planning of radiation work.
