R-trees are widely used in various areas such as geographical information systems, CAD systems and spatial databases in order to efficiently index multi-dimensional data. As data sets used in these areas grow in size and complexity, however, range query operations on R-tree are needed to be further faster to meet the area-specific constraints. To address this problem, there have been various research efforts to develop strategies for acceleration query processing on R-tree by using the buffer mechanism or parallelizing the query processing on R-tree through multiple disks and processors. As a part of the strategies, approaches which parallelize query processing on R-tree through Graphics Processor Units(GPUs) have been explored. The use of GPUs may guarantee improved performances resulting from faster calculations and reduced disk accesses but may cause additional overhead costs caused by high memory access latencies and low data exchange rate between GPUs and the CPU. In this paper, to address the overhead problems and to adapt GPUs efficiently, we propose a novel approach which uses a GPU as a buffer to parallelize query processing on R-tree. The use of buffer algorithm can give improved performance by reducing the number of disk access and maximizing coalesced memory access resulting in minimizing GPU memory access latencies. Through the extensive performance studies, we observed that the proposed approach achieved up to 5 times higher query performance than the original CPU-based R-trees.

This study introduces newly implemented geological well logs database for Jeju public water wells, built for a research project focusing on integrated hydrogeology database of Jeju Island. A detailed analysis of the existing 1,200 Jeju Island geological logs for the public wells developed since 1970 revealed six major indications to be improved for their use in Jeju geological logs DB construction: (1) lack of uniformity in rock name classification, (2) poor definitions of pyroclastic deposits and sand and gravel layers, (3) lack of well borehole aquifer information, (4) lack of information on well screen installation in many water wells, (5) differences by person in geological logging descriptions. A new Jeju geological logs DB enabling standardized input and output formats has been implemented to overcome the above indications by reestablishing the names of Jeju volcanic and sedimentary rocks and utilizing a commercial, database-based input structured, geological log program. The newly designed database structure in geological log program enables users to store a large number of geology, well drilling, and test data at the standardized DB input structure. Also, well borehole groundwater and aquifer test data can be easily added without modifying the existing database structure. Thus, the newly implemented geological logs DB could be a standardized DB for a large number of Jeju existing public wells and new wells to be developed in the future at Jeju Island. Also, the new geological logs DB will be a basis for ongoing project 'Developing GIS-based integrated interpretation system for Jeju Island hydrogeology'.

In recent years, there have been tries to open public data from various government agencies along with publicization of public information for the public interest. In other words, various kinds of electronic data generated and collected by the public institutions as a result of their work are opened in the public portal sites. However, users who use it are limited in their use of big data due to lack of understanding of data format, lack of data processing knowledge, difficulty in accessing and managing data, and lack of visualization data to understand collected and stored data. Therefore, in this study, we propose a big data collection, storing and visualization platform that can collect big data provided by various public sites using data set URL and API regardless of data format, re-process collected data using XML structure.

The classical multiscale finite element (FE² ) method involves iterative calculations of micro-boundary value problems for representative volume elements at every integration point in macro scale, making it a computationally time and data storage space. To overcome this, we developed the data-driven multiscale analysis method based on the mean-field homogenization (MFH). Data-driven computational mechanics (DDCM) analysis is a model-free approach that directly utilizes strain-stress datasets. For performing multiscale analysis, we efficiently construct a strain-stress database for the microstructure of composite materials using mean-field homogenization and conduct data-driven computational mechanics simulations based on this database. In this paper, we apply the developed multiscale analysis framework to an example, confirming the results of data-driven computational mechanics simulations considering the microstructure of a hyperelastic composite material. Therefore, the application of data-driven computational mechanics approach in multiscale analysis can be applied to various materials and structures, opening up new possibilities for multiscale analysis research and applications.

The shape-based retrieval is defined as the operation that searches for the (sub) sequences whose shapes are similar to that of a query sequence regardless of their actual element values. In this paper, we propose a similarity model suitable for shape-based retrieval and present an indexing method for supporting the similarity model. The proposed similarity model enables to retrieve similar shapes accurately by providing the combination of various shape-preserving transformations such as normalization, moving average, and time warping. Our indexing method stores every distinct subsequence concisely into the disk-based suffix tree for efficient and adaptive query processing. We allow the user to dynamically choose a similarity model suitable for a given application. More specifically, we allow the user to determine the parameter p of the distance function $L_p$ when submitting a query. The result of extensive experiments revealed that our approach not only successfully finds the subsequences whose shapes are similar to a query shape but also significantly outperforms the sequence search.

수출입 관련 항만물류업무 처리의 효율화를 위해 1996년부터 도입된 EDI는 서류없이 각종 항만물류 및 통관업무를 효율적으로 처리하는데 큰 기여를 하고 있다. 그러나 기존의 방식은 VAN EDI 로써 폐쇄적인 VAN 망을 통하여 EDI VAN사업자가 사용자의 EDI문서를 관련 정부기관에 중계만을 하여 EDI문서에 나타난 각종 데이터의 누적을 통한 물류정보서비스는 제공되고 있지 않다. 한편, EDI를 수신한 각 정부기관에서는 필요한 물류요약정보를 얻기 위해 해당 EDI 문서에서 추출한 데이터를 저장하는 운영 데이터베이스에 접근하여 필요한 요약 정보를 리포트 형태로 프로그램하여 생성하고 있어 정보제공의 시간지연과 프로그램 업무의 과중 및 운영 데이터베이스에 대한 부하가 발생하고 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 이러한 상황에서 수출입 항만물류와 관련한 다차원 정보를 실시간제공하기 위한 데이터웨어하우스를 구축하는데 있다. 일반적으로 데이터웨어하우스는 운영데이터베이스로부터 다차원 구조의 데이터웨어하우스로 데이터를 추출, 전환, 복사함으로써 이루어지지만, 본 연구에서는 EDI 수신 기관의 운영데이터베이스보다 더 원천 데이터인EDI 문서로부터 데이터웨어하우스로 데이터 변환을 함으로써 항만물류 데이터웨어하우스의 데이터 추출 단계를 한 단계 줄였다. 현재 VAN EDI 방식은 그 폐쇄성과 비용 때문에 향후 인터넷을 이용한 XML/EDI로 기술 이전될 것이 예상되며 이러한 상황에서VAN EDI 포맷이 아닌 XML/EDI 문서로 부터 데이터웨어하우스로의 전환을 구현하였다. 본 연구에서는 관세청의 수출통관 EDI에 대해 이를 XML/EDI 로 XML 스키마를 정의하고 이로 생성된 XML 문서를 SQL 서버로 구현된 OLAP 용 데이터웨어하우스로 전환하였다. 본 연구를 통해 XML을 이용한 EDI체제에서 전자문서전송기능과 정보제공기능을 위한 데이터웨어하우스의 연동을 동해 EDI시스템을 다차원 의사결정정보 시스템과 통합하게 하여, 향후 인터넷 기반 XML/EDI 중계서비스에 있어 물류정보서비스도 원활하게 제공할 수 있게될 것으로 기대된다.

Biodiversity informatics applies information technology methods in organizing, accessing, visualizing, and analyzing primary biodiversity data and quantitative data management through the scientific names of accepted names and synonyms. We reviewed the GBIF data published by China, Japan, Taiwan, and internal institutes, such as NIBR, NIE, and KNA of the Republic of Korea, and assessed data in diverse aspects of data quality using BRAHMS software. Most data from four Asian countries have quality problems with the lack of data consistency and missing information on georeferenced data, collectors, collection date, and place names (gazetteers) or other invalid data forms. The major problem is that biodiversity management institutions in East Asia are using unstructured databases and simple spreadsheet-type data. Owing to the nature of the biodiversity information, if data relationships are not structured, it would be impossible to secure the data integrity of scientific names, human names, geographical names, literature, and ecological information. For data quality, it is essential to build data integrity for database management and training systems for taxonomists who are continuous data managers to correct errors. Thus, publishers in East Asia play an essential role not only in using specialized software to manage biodiversity data but also in developing structured databases and ensuring their integration and value within biodiversity publishing platforms.

In this paper, we propose a location-prediction structure that can provide user service in advance. It consists of seven steps and supplies intelligent services which can forecast user's location. Context information collected from physical sensors and a history database is so difficult that it can't present importance of data and abstraction of data because of heterogeneous data type. Hence, we offer the location-prediction that change data type from heterogeneous data to homogeneous data. Extracted data is clustered by SOFM, then it gets user's location information by ARIMA and realizes the services by a reasoning engine. In order to validate the proposed location-prediction, we built a test-bed and test it by the scenario.
