In this paper, in order to resolve the problem of reduction for D2D (device to device) advertisement dissemination efficiency of conventional dissemination algorithms, we here propose several clustering algorithms (modified single linkage algorithm (MSL), K-means algorithm, and expectation maximization algorithm with Gaussian mixture model (EM)) based advertisement dissemination algorithms to improve advertisement dissemination efficiency in D2D communication networks. Target areas are clustered in several target groups by the proposed clustering algorithms. Then, D2D advertisements are consecutively distributed by using a routing algorithm based on the geographical distribution of the target areas and a relay selection algorithm based on the distance between D2D sender and D2D receiver. Via intensive MATLAB simulations, we analyze the performance excellency of the proposed algorithms with respect to maximum number of relay transmissions and D2D user density ratio in a target area and a non-target area.

The biomass resources is one of promising ways to solve energy exhaustion issues and global warming issues at the same time. To evaluate domestic biomass resources potential such as agricultural wastes, forestry wastes, livestock wastes and municipal solid wastes, statistics data from various organizations were collected and analyzed in this study. Also, space energy densities of each districts in Korea were calculated and analyzed. The results from the evaluation of biomass energy potential and space energy densities in Korea might be useful to estimate the availability of biomass energy conversion processes and to choice a appropriate process to convert domestic biomass into energy.

The number of stations existing in the same wireless channel is increasing due to the spread of the wireless LAN devices. CSMA/CA, a conventional wireless LAN protocol, uses a random backoff method. In the random backoff scheme, collision between stations is frequent in a dense region where the number of stations existing in the same channel is several tens or more, and the performance of the performance degradation of such a protocol, the IEEE 802.11ah standard proposed a Restricted Access Window(RAW) wireless access method. RAW improves performance by limiting the number of concurrent access stations by dividing the stations into several groups. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the performance of channel connection by using new group creation, group removal and group relocation algorithm according to traffic change by improving existing RAW method.

Recently, the land degradation and pasture erosion in Tuv, located around Ulaanbaatar of Mongolia, have been increasing sharply due to escalating developments of mining sectors, well as the density of populations. Because of that, we have chosen the urban and mining area of Tuv for our study target. During the study, the temporal changes of land cover in Tuv, Mongolia were observed by the Landsat TM/+ETM satellite images from 2001 to 2009 that provided the fundamental dataset to apply NDVI and K-Mean algorithm of Unsupervised Classification and Maximum likelihood classification(MLC) of Supervised Classification in order to conclude in land cover change analyzation. The result of our study implies that the growth of mining area, the climate change, and the density of population led the land degradation to desertification.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate flooding vulnerability considering spatial characteristics focused on Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do. Assessment Factors are water cycle area ratio, surface runoff, and precipitation. And construction of assessment factors and vulnerability was analyzed by GIS program. Water cycle ratio and surface runoff were vulnerable in urban area. Precipitation was often distributed in agriculture of the northern region. Results of flooding vulnerability were low in agriculture and forest of the northern region. In contrast, urban area was high because there has covered impervious land cover. Analytical results of flooding vulnerability density using hotspot spatial cluster analysis were high in urban area. And these areas were situated in down stream so flooding were generated. Therefore, flooding vulnerability assessment of this study can help for selecting construction sites of pervious land cover and rainwater management facilities in urban and environmental planning.

During the 1990's, five new towns were constructed around Seoul such as Bun-Dang and Il-San. These new towns are very popular since they were created based on systemic urban planning and they provide various residential amenities. Many people consider them livable cities. Taking such advantages, other small-scale new public and private developments continued around those new towns and consequently created 'agglomerated region with new development'. The most representative area is Bun-Dang and north-western Yong-In area which are formed along the Seoul-Busan expressway. This area is a mega-community having more than one million residents in 2005.Judging from recent development trends in the Seoul metropolitan area, it is expected that the formation of other 'agglomerated region with new development' would be continued for the time being. This study is aimed to analyze the residential environment of Bun-Dang and north-western Yong-In and find implications to the management of 'agglomerated region with new development'. The relevant existing studies have their limits, only focusing on analyzing current conditions and pointing out current problems. This study could be differentiated from the existing analyses in that it conducted comprehensive analyses on various factors that constitute urban residential environment. The conclusion of this study was derived from diverse analyses of current development condition, residential sites, regional transportation, awareness of residents, and oversee cases.

This research empirically analyzed the factors associated with the energy consumption of tourism hotels in Busan, Ulsan, and the Kyoungnam region of Korea based on their individual and locational characteristics. The study adopted a comprehensive modeling approach involving multi-level regression analyses that allowed for improved accuracy by considering the hierarchical structures of the hotels and their locational characteristics. The results indicated that the majority of energy consumption can be explained by the hotels'individual characteristics, including the size of building structure and the services, while their effects vary by region with statistical significance. Furthermore, the proximity to central commercial districts and hotel clusters had a significant influence on the variability in their energy consumption, indicating that locational factors are also important determinants. The findings here suggest the need for regional energy policies and solutions at various urban scales along with conventional energy policies at the building level and highlight regional responsibilities when attempting to create sustainable tourism industries.

Energy efficiency in wireless sensor network is a principal issue because wireless sensor network uses limited energy. In wireless sensor network, because nodes are placed randomly, they may be concentrated in certain area. This dense area causes shortening the life of the concentrated area, and furthermore reducing the life of the entire network. In this paper, we suggest a additional cluster head selection algorithm for reducing the overload of head node in dense area and shows simulation result using our algorithm with LEACH algorithm.

This paper presents a map matching method using multiple hypothesis technique(MHT) to identify the road that a land vehicle is located on. To realize a map matching method using MHT, Pseudo-measurements are generated utilizing adjacent roads of GPS/DR position and the MHT is reformulated as a single target problem. Since pseudo-measurements are generated using digital map, topological properties such as road connection, direction, and road facility information are considered in calculating probabilities of hypotheses. In order to improve the map matching performance under when bias errors exist in digital road map data, a Kalman filter is employed to estimate the biases. Field experimental results show that the proposed map matching method provides the consistent performance even in complex downtown areas, overpass/underpass areas, and in the areas where roads are adjacent in parallel.

우리나라는 1980년대 이후 급격한 경제성장에 따라 년 10%대의 급격한 전력수요 증가를 보이고 있으며, 1인당 전력소비량 또한 매년 큰 폭의 증가세를 보이고 있다. 특히, 주요한 전력 수요 증가지대가 경인 지역에 집중되어 있으나, 이 지역은 인구 밀집지역으로 환경과 입지적인 관점에서 새로운 발전원을 개발하기가 곤란하다. 이에 따라 대용량 발전단이 있는 중서부권이나 영동권으로부터 수요지인 경인지역으로의 대규모 전력전송로가 필요하게 되었다. 이에 따라 1979년부터 765kV로의 전압격상을 준비하였으며, 1983년부터 765kV 연구개발을 시작하여 1997년 10월에 1차로 765kV 송전선로에 345kV 가압을 시작하여 2002년 5월 8일에 역사적인 765kV 송전을 개시하였다. 전력계통운용에서 765kV 송전선로의 중요도가 매우 커지게 됨으로써 국내 최초로 적용되는 765kV송전선로 보호시스템의 정동작 유무를 정확히 판단하여 전력계통의 보호 신뢰도를 향상시키는 문제가 중요하게 대두 되었다. 본 논문에서는 시각동기장치가 부착된 보호계전기 시험장치를 이용하여 양단 변전소에서 동시에 EMTP와 RTDS 둥으로 검토된 송전선로 고장상태를 인가하여 보호시스템의 정동작 여부를 종합적으로 판정하는 시험 기술을 개발하여 실적용한 사례와 향후 사용 계획에 대해서 기술하였다.
