Recently, the capability of efficient access to the desired video content is of growing importance because more digital video data are available at an increasing rate. A video summary abstracting the gist from the entirety enables the efficient browsing as well as the fast skimming of the video contents. In this paper, we discuss a novel dynamic summarization method based on the detection of highlights which represent semantically significant content and the description scheme (DS) proposed to MPEG-7 aiming to provide summary description. The summary DS proposed to MPEG-7 allows for efficient navigation and browsing to the contents of interest through the functionalities of multi-level highlights, hierarchical browsing and user-customized summarization. In this paper, we also show the validation and the usefulness of the methodology for dynamic summarization and the summary DS in real applications with soccer video sequences.

Internet GIS sites are currently being emersed as one of important places to acquire spatial information in stead of traditional paper map. This paper is intended to identify critical factors in evaluating internet GIS site quality. While there should be a considerable number and variety of factors associated with internet GIS site quality, this paper focuses on the site characteristics that generate visitor satisfaction. After carefully reviewing the previous literature of general website evaluation, four criteria that are critical to internet GIS site quality were identified: (1) contents (2) design (3) navigation (4) spatial analysis. An empirical study for a case study site has been conducted to confirm the validity for the four evaluation factors. A site diagnosis by the criteria provided many valuable information for Web site quality. For example, it was found that many symbols in the site made the visitors confusing and navigation interface was not very user-friendly to track required positional information due to inconsistency in terms of cartographic concept. The results indicate that the evaluation criteria may be used not only as a tool to evaluate internet GIS sites, but also as a checklist to improve the quality of a web site that is under development and requires remodelling. As a result, the research findings have established the new concept of ‘the quality assurance of the internet GIS site’, proposed as an initial aim of this paper Many of the issues unresolved in this project could be improved, based on the understanding of the four criteria suggested in this paper.

IMO (International Maritime Organization) has been providing GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System) and mandating to install distress and safety systems according to SOLAS. Digital-HF(High-Frequency) coast station communication system maintains interoperability between ship and coast station and digital data exchange in maritime mobile service by digitizing existing analog base voice communication. In this paper, we analyze ITU-R M. 1798-1 established by ITU for digital HF communications and propose Advanced annex2 and new Annex 5 to improve the problems of the existing Annex 2 and Annex 4. The proposed OFDM protocol basically adopts ARQ (Automatic Retransmission Request) which retransmits when an error occurs in a half-duplex manner between an information transmitting side (ISS) and an information receiving side (IRS) and we propose a digital HF communication system and its operational concept which is more reliable and superior than the existing ITU-R M. 1798 by implementing technical development on implementation and performance improvement.

Todays, the rapid technical progress of smart device has been used for various social (wall-fare) services in our lives. Especially, most of these services are based on the Local-based Services (LBS) and this technology is getting popular more and more compared with before. Basically, LBS is able to support various types of geographical services such as vehicles' navigation services, Augmented reality services as using extensional local information such as GPS. However, LBS has serious mathematical vulnerability on the services frequently because of its miscalculated GPS data under interior and ambiguous geographical environment such like shadowed area. So, to overcome this limitation, iBeacon, which would be able to mitigate LBS miscalculation process, has been proposed recently among network experts. Compared with other wireless technologies, iBeacon is able to determine the accurate geographical data of certain local positions easily because it is not only designed based on low-powered data transmitting technology, but also, it can be much easy to be deployed. As users' dependency of smart devices are getting higher and higher and the use of smart device is also getting complex more and more, the users prefer to use various types of smart devices at one time. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the loss prevention system that is able to interwork smart devices networks as using iBeacon technology for users' better conveniences.

Traffic volume increases due to diversification of industry. Also, Automobile ownerships also increase steadily. It is estimated that the registered number of vehicle is expected to be 20 milion in the year 2015. These trends may result in increasing the number of woman drivers and elderly drivers. Therefore, this study aims to identify routes that reflect characteristics of each driver's preferences. A survey was conducted on different routes attributes for variances drivers. Driver types were classified by gender, age, and driving career. Accordingly, a weight for road composition attribute such as number of lanes, number of accidents, slope was estimated by using Swing Weighting technique in Multi-Attribute Utility Theory. In addition, a case study was conducted and identified weights were applied to routes. In result, drivers commonly prefer short route when they considered their routes. Also, male drivers prefer speedy and shorter route than that of female drivers. Elderly drivers prefer safe routes that represent low accidents rate. Moreover driving career under a year drivers prefer safe and easy routes. Therefore, we may conclude that the necessity of diversified route information is essential in the future car navigation system.

터치패널은 키보드나 마우스와 같은 입력장치를 사용하지 않고, 스크린에 손가락, 펜 등을 접촉하여 입력하는 방식이다. 누구나 쉽게 입력할 수 있는 장점으로 인해 기존에는 현금인출기, 키오스크 등 공공분야에 주로 많이 사용되어 왔으나, 최근의 터치스크린은 휴대폰, 게임기, 네비게이션, 노트북 모니터 등 개인정보기기의 입력장치로 활용분야가 넓어져가고 있다. 기존 터치패널은 유리 기판 위에 ITO박막(투명전도막)을 진공코팅하여 사용하여 왔지만, 최근 터치패널은 경량화를 고려하여 PET 필름 기판 위에 ITO 박막을 진공코팅하여 사용하고 있다. PET 필름의 유연성 때문에 ITO 코팅된 필름을 PC 혹은 강화유리 위에 OCA 물질을 이용하여 다시 고정하여야 한다. 이때 터치패널 제작시 생산공정이 늘어나 생산성이 떨어지고, 터치패녈의 광투과율도 떨어지는 2차적인 문제가 발생한다. 이를 해결코자하는 터치페널 업체의 Needs가 있고, 최근에 이를 해결하기 위하여 강화유리와 플라스틱 기판 위에 ITO 박막을 직접 진공코팅 하는 공정개발이 진행되고 있다. ITO 박막은 진공코팅 중에 열을 가하여 결정화를 이루어야 하는데, 강화유리와 플라스틱은 기판의 열에 약한 특성을 고려하여, 열을 가하지 않고 ITO 박막을 진공 코팅하여야 한다. 이러한 ITO 박막의 진공코팅 공정에는 In-line magnetron sputtering system이 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 In-line magnetron sputtering system을 사용하여 강화유리와 플라스틱 기판 위에 정전용량방식 터치패널용 패턴 인비저블 ITO 투명전도막을 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. ITO 박막의 면저항은 150 Ohm/cm2, 최고 광투과율은 90.56% (@583), 그리고 550 nm에서 광투과율은 90.46%로 ITO 박막 코팅 전후에 투과율 차이가 0.4임을 확인하였다. 정전용량방식의 터치패널에서는 ITO 박막 코팅 전후에 투과율 차이가 1이하의 특성, 즉 패턴 인비저블의 특성을 필요로 하는데, 이는 ITO 박막 패턴후에 패턴이 보이지 않게 하기 위해서이며, 이러한 시장의 Needs를 고려하면 본 연구에서 매우 중요한 연구 성과를 얻었다고 말할 수 있다. 그리고 강화유리와 플라스틱 기판 위에 여러 종류의 ITO 투명전도막을 제작하고, 또한 감성터치에 적용되는 ITO 투명전도막을 제작하여, 그 특성을 조사하여 이를 논하고자한다.

This study aims to understanding the effects of culture on websites with emphasis on the website structure and navigation. The website is inherently‘cultural’because anyone around the world can access to website if he or she is equipped with appropriate equipment. For the importance of cultural role in website, various researches have been conducted to understand the relationship between culture and website. However they tended to focus mainly on phenomenal matters such as color, layout, icon etc. There have been not so many thorough attempts to causal relationships between website and‘thick culture’in depth. The study conducted cross-cultural usability testing of websites between Korea and America. At first, representative I-commerce websites of Korea and America were selected and they were analyzed by the selected frameworks such as layout, display type, element type, and the relationship with homepage and sub-page navigation. The results were used to construct typical prototypes of website for Korea and America for experiment. Two websites were used for cross-cultural usability testing though specially-developed remote testing. 20 users from each country participated in the usability testing. The result shows that Korean users peformed better usability testing for Korean style structure of website while American counterparts showed better performances in American style of websites. Other various significant findings were revealed.

PET 필름의 유연성 때문에 ITO 코팅된 필름을 PC 혹은 강화유리 위에 OCA 물질을 이용하여 다시 고정하여야 한다. 이때 터치패널 제작시 생산공정이 늘어나 생산성이 떨어지고, 터치패널의 광투과율도 떨어지는 2차적인 문제가 발생한다. 이를 해결코자하는 터치페널 업체의 Needs가 있고, 최근에 이를 해결하기 위하여 PC, 강화유리 그리고 COP 기판 위에 ITO 박막을 직접 진공코팅하는 공정개발이 진행되고 있다. ITO 박막은 진공코팅 중에 열을 가하여 결정화를 이루어야 하는데, PC, 강화유리 그리고 COP 기판의 열에 약한 특성을 고려하여, 열을 가하지 않고 ITO 박막을 진공 코팅하여야 한다. 이러한 ITO 박막의 진공코팅 공정에는 In-line magnetron sputtering system이 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 In-line magnetron sputtering system을 사용하여 강화유리 기판위에 정전용량방식 터치패널용 패턴 인비저블 ITO 투명전도막을 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. ITO 박막의 면저항은 230O hm/cm2, 최고 광투과율은 90.96%(@541-543nm), 그리고 550 nm에서 광투과율은 90.45%로 ITO 박막 코팅 전후에 투과율 차이가 0.4임을 확인하였다. 정전용량 방식의 터치패널에서는 ITO 박막 코팅 전후에 투과율 차이가 1 이하의 특성, 즉 패턴 인비저블의 특성을 필요로 하는데, 이는 ITO 박막 패턴후에 패턴이 보이지 않게 하기 위해서이며, 이러한 시장의 Needs를 고려하면 본 연구에서 매우 중요한 연구 성과를 얻었다고 말할 수 있다. 그리고 면저항 기준 150에서 230Ohm/cm2 사이 여러 종류의 ITO 투명전도막을 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하여, 이를 논하고자한다.
