Lately, the three mobile telecom companies in Korea are competing for the launch of Internet of Things services for using home. Typical launched services are in the smart home related fields. However, Internet of Things as mobile telecom based are at an early stage, expected that various services will be started continuously. At this point, we have been planning to analyze the preference of Internet of Things for objects based on the services already launched. In order to apply the analytic hierarchy method, the first stage factors were designed as Safety, Security, Health care, Intelligence and Home appliances. In addition, the second stage factors were organized into 18 detailed services presented in the conceptual model. As a result, Health care (23.2%) was the most preferred priority. These results can be interpreted as the result of interest in health by improving income. We presented the theoretical and practical implications of these results.

A secret sharing scheme is a cryptographic protocol to share a secret among a set of participants P in the way that only qualified subsets of P can reconstruct the secret whereas any other subset of P, non-qualified to know the secret, cannot determine anything about the secret. In this paper, we propose a new secret sharing scheme in hierarchical groups, whose hierarchy can be represented as a tree structure. In the tree structure, participants of higher levels have priorities to reconstruct the secret over participants of lower levels. In the absence of the participant of a higher level, it is possible for this participant to delegate the ability to reconstruct the secret to the child nodes of the next lower level through the transfer of his delegation ticket. This scheme has a dynamic access structure through the recursive delegation process from the root to lower levels where participants aren't absent.

Quadtree, which is a hierarchical data structure, is a very important data structure to represent binary images. The linear quadtree representation as a way to store a quadtree is efficient to save space compared with other representations. Therefore, it has been widely studied to develop efficient algorithms to execute operations related with quadtrees. The window operation is one of important geometry operations in image processing, which extracts a sub-image indicated by a window in the image. In this paper, we present an algorithm to perform the window operation of binary images represented by quadtrees, using three-dimensional $n{\times}n{\times}n$ processors on RMESH(Reconfigurable MESH). This algorithm has constant-time complexity by using efficient basic operations to route the locational codes of quardtree on the hierarchical structure of $n{\times}n{\times}n$ RMESH.

태양의 활동영역에서 관측할 수 있는 흑점은 주로 흑점군으로 관측되며, 태양폭발현상의 발생을 예보하기 위한 중요한 관측 대상 중 하나이다. 현재 태양 폭발을 예보하는 모델들은 McIntosh 흑점군 분류법을 사용하며 통계적 모델과 기계학습 모델로 나누어진다. 컴퓨터는 흑점군의 형태학적 특성을 연속적인 값으로 계산하지만 흑점군의 형태적 다양성으로 인해 McIntosh 분류법과 일치하지 않는 경우가 있다. 이러한 이유로 컴퓨터가 계산한 흑점군의 형태학적인 특성을 예보에 직접 적용하는 것이 필요하다. 우리는 흑점군을 검출하기 위해 최소신장트리(Minimum spanning tree : MST)를 이용한 계층적 군집화 기법을 수행하였다. 그래프(Graph)이론에서 최소신장트리는 정점(Vertex)과 간선(Edge)으로 구성된 간선의 가중치의 합이 최소인 트리이다. 우리는 모든 흑점을 정점, 그들의 연결을 간선으로 적용하여 최소신장트리를 작성하였다. 또한 최소신장트리를 활용한 계층적 군집화기법은 초기값에 따른 군집화 결과의 차이가 없기 때문에 흑점군 검출에 있어서 가장 적합한 알고리즘이다. 이를 통해 흑점군의 기본적인 형태학적인 특성(개수, 면적, 면적비 등)을 계산하고 최소신장트리를 통해 가장 면적이 큰 흑점을 중심으로 트리의 깊이(Depth)와 차수(Degree)를 계산하였다. 이 방법을 2003년 SOHO/MDI의 태양 가시광 영상에 적용하여 구한 흑점군의 내부 흑점수와 면적은 NOAA에서 산출한 값들과 각각 90%, 99%의 좋은 상관관계를 가졌다. 우리는 이 연구를 통해 흑점군의 형태학적인 특성과 더불어 예보에 직접적으로 활용할 수 있는 방법을 논의하고자 한다.

This article presents a novel infrastructure for large-memory database processing using commodity hardware with operating system support. We exploit inexpensive PCs and a high-speed network capable of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) operations to build a new memory hierarchy between fast volatile memory and slow disk storage. The new memory hierarchy guarantees a reasonable response time, and its storage size enables us to run large-memory database systems with little performance degradation. The proposed architecture has two main components: (1) a remote memory system inside the Linux kernel to manage other computers' memory pages efficiently and (2) a remote memory pager responsible for manipulating remote read/write operations on remote memory pages. We insist that the proposed architecture is practical enough to support the rigorous demands of commercial in-memory database systems by demonstrating the performance of publicly available main-memory databases (e.g., MySQL) on our prototyped system. The experimental results show very interesting results from the TPC-C benchmark.

Quadtree, which is a hierarchical data structure, is a very important data structure to represent binary images. The linear quadtree representation as a way to store a quadtree is efficient to save space compared with other representations. Therefore, it has been widely studied to develop efficient algorithms to execute operations related with quadtrees. The operations of unaligned linear quadtrees, which are operations among the linear quadtrees with different origin, are able to perform the translated or rotated images efficiently. And this operations requires alignment of the linear quadtrees. In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm to perform alignment of unaligned linear quadtrees, using three-dimensional $n{\pm}n{\pm}n$ processors on RMESH(Reconfigurable MESH). This algorithm has constant-time complexity by using efficient basic operations to route the locational codes of quardtree on the hierarchical structure of $n{\pm}n{\pm}n$ RMESH.

In this paper, we propose a Cross-Layer Transmission Architecture (CLTA) to support power saving high-speed multimedia services in mobile ad-hoc wireless sensor networks(MAWSN). The main goals of this paper are in showing and proposing how the routing routes are decided on route stability based on mobility of mobile nodes to increase the operational lifetime of routes as well as how the transmit power can be saved in mobile ad-hoc wireless sensor networks. To obtain these goals, we propose a cross-layer architecture strategy which combines network layer technology with physical layer technology to get synergy effects in the view of transmission power saving. We consider a realistic approach, in the points of view of the MAWSN, based on mobile sensor nodes as well as fixed sensor nodes in sensor fields while the conventional research for sensor networks focus on mainly fixed sensor nodes. The performance evaluation of the proposed CLTA is performed via simulation and analysis.

In this paper, we propose the hierarchical network synchronization scheme that is backward compatible for the existing commercial system, efficient for total system performance, and whose hardware modification is minimized. This system performance is, the relationship among bandwidth efficiency, complexity and MODEM performance, and superiority of network system applicability. The proposed structure can remedy the high hardware complexity and the lower accuracy of network sychronization that the existing satellite communication terminal system in the star network based on TDM/MF-TDMA of DVB-S2/RCS standards has. Besides, It has high efficiency in view of cost and system performance if the system designed for satellite broadcast requires system upgrade. In the body section, its hardware complexity and system performance of the proposed algorithm is analysed theoretically and treated with the related parameters(symbol rate, spreading factor, etc.) and the BER performance of control channel through the computer simulation for its verification that it can be applied for communications system.

The review of the literature shows that analysts tend to follow two approaches in their investigation of the differences in terms of the development of welfare state. The first approach focused on the logic of industrialization. In this account, technological and structural changes rather than political choices of ideological preferences and culture create the conditions for the emergence of welfare state. The second approach emphasizes the importance of the growth of unionization for the development of welfare state. However, this study analyses the development of welfare state by using cultural theory developed by Mary Douglas. Culture theory has a specific point of departure : the grid-group typology proposed by Mary Douglas. Group refers to the extent to which an individual is incorporated into bounded units. Grid denotes the degree to which an individual's life is circumscribed by externally imposed prescriptions. Hierarchical culture (high grid-high group) favors social conservatism, giving government the right to intervene in matters of social institutions. Germany and Japan belong to this culture. Individualistic culture (low grid-low group) reluctant to develop social insurance programs. Individuals who are bound by neither group incorporation nor prescribed roles inhabit an individualistic social context. Great Britain and the United Sates of America belong to this culture. Egalitarian culture (low grid-high group) prefer to develop social insurance program. Strong group boundaries couples with minimal prescriptions produce social relations that are egalitarian. Sweden belong to this culture.
