The purpose of the study is to investigate the status of assistive technology delivery system and to analyze issues on legislating assistive technology act in Korea. Many laws in different departments include regulations of providing assistive technology devices, and their range and types in various delivery entities tend to expand. However, a nationwide assistive technology delivery system for all individuals with disabilities that considers balanced expenditure among departments is not established yet. Two laws proposed to solve the situation were introduced and discussed as the following. First of all, the terminology of assistive technology and various products supported by different laws and departments should be aggregated and connected. Secondly, a nationwide assistive technology delivery system for all individuals with disabilities are to be established, regardless of departments or laws for certain purposes. Thirdly, a quality control system of all assistive technology products including user monitoring system should be regulated.

In this study, we present how our assistive technology service worked in the public funds delivery system through the center of professional assistive technology in Gwangju. In detail, among total 253 applicants for assistive device support business for disabled, 28 clients and 28 clients failed to get the support because of self-withdrawl and insuitability, respectively. The left 225 clients finally got the chance to use the assistive device; especially, 28 clients will get the alternative device which was recommended through the assistive technology professionals. Therefore, this work is believed to be a good example of how mediation of professionals in assistive technology center leads to the efficient use of public funds.

In this study, a 3D printed assistive device was applied to X-ray examinations to diagnose human diseases. Based on the results of evaluating the device, statistical and regression analyses were conducted to evaluate its clinical utility and purchase intention, respectively. In the experiment, 90 radiologists performed X-ray examinations on patients who agreed with the use of the assistive device in oblique view X-rays of the lumbar spine, and then statistical analyses were undertaken with a traditional aid and factor analysis. The non-standardized coefficient values of the multiple regression analysis performed by setting the purchase intention of the 3D printed device as the dependent variable and the 3D printed device and traditional aid calculated by factor analysis as independent variables were 0.893 (p<0.001) and 0.269 (p<0.001), indicating statistically significant results. The results show that the 3D printed assistive device proposed in this study has higher clinical utility than traditional aids used in oblique view X-rays of the lumbar spine.

The Comprehensive Assistive Technology services delivery was devised to describe the full social and engineering context of assistive technology devices, systems, applications, and provision. It is based on a detailed decomposition of the four attributes: Person, Context, Activities, and Assistive Technology. The paper commences will a brief discussion of the different representations of the services delivery, including rental of devices, modification of manufacture goods and customized production and the use of engineering to supplement some elements of the description. The main contribution of the paper is the presentation of two case studies of different applications of the assistive technology services. These are the identification of accessibility barriers, the analysis and synthesis of assistive technology systems and the provision of a framework for identitying end-user requirements, providing assistive technology and assessing the associated outcomes. This case study involves the presentation of the concept of a personal assistive technology profile.

The studies were undertaken to establish optimum formulation recipes of acetamipid 4% SL(soluble concentrate) using different adjuvants and to evaluate enhanced control effect on target insect pests by adjuvants. Adjuvants for the studies used were SS(Sodium alkylcarboxylate) and PE(Polyoxyethylene alkyl ether). After the fundamental recipe for SL being established by using co-solvent for stability at low temperature, four types of SL were formulated. The physical properties and insecticidal efficacies of the tested SL formulations were investigated. Surface tension of SL1 without adjuvant was highly decreased from 44 dyne/cm to 34 dyne/cm by addition of adjuvants. SL4 using mixed adjuvant showed the lowest contact angle. Efficacies of SL1 without adjuvant against the palm thrips (Thrips palmi) and the cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii) on cucumber were increased by adding adjuvants. SL4 using mixed adjuvant showed higher efficacy than SL2 and SL3 using single adjuvant. These results have demonstrated that the selected adjuvants could be used to enhance insecticide efficacy and reduce spray dose of insecticide.

The auxiliary renewal function has an important role in analyzng queues in which the either of the inter-arrival time and the service time of customers is not exponential. As like the renewal function, the auxiliary renewal function is hard to compute although it can be defined theoretically. In this paper, we suggest two approximations for auxiliary renewal function and compare the two with the true value of auxiliary renewal function which can be computed in some special cases.

의료 분야의 정보화 움직임으로 인해 단순한 정보저장과 검색시스템에서 벗어나 지능화된 서비스를 제공해주는 시멘틱 웹 기반의 의료 시스템이 요구되고 있다. 이에 한의학 분야도 한의사의 진단을 보조할 수 있는 지식기반시스템에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 온톨로지는 시멘틱 웹의 핵심적인 지식체계로 지식의 처리와 추론이 가능하므로 질의 및 논리 추론을 통하여 진단을 내리는 한의학 지식 데이터베이스 구축에 적합하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한의학 진단의 기반이 되는 환자의 질병, 증상, 원인, 처방 등의 관계를 온톨로지로 구축하여 한의학 분야의 지식을 표현하기 위한 기본 지식 체계를 제시하고 구축된 한의학 온톨로지를 기반으로 한의학 진단보조시스템을 개발한다. 구축 된 시스템은 한의사 진단을 보조하여 줄뿐만 아니라 한의학의 진단 결과를 객관적으로 점검할 수 있게 해준다. 또한, 진단보조시스템과 온톨로지 관리시스템을 결합함으로써 컴퓨터 비전문가에 의한 한의학 온톨로지의 확장 및 수정이 가능하도록 한다.

Typically, it should be use auxiliary variable for calibrating the survey nonreponse in census or sampling survey. Where, if the dimension of auxiliary information is large, then it nay be spend a lot of computing time, and difficult to handle data set. Also because the variance estimator depends on the dimension of auxiliary variables, the variance estimator becomes underestimator. To deal with this problem, we propose the variable selection methods for calibration estimation procedure in unit nonreponse situation and we compare the efficiency by simulation study.

본 연구에서는 직접분사식 CNG기관의 희박한계를 보다 확장하여 고효율 및 저배기 공해를 실현시키고자 실린더 내에 고압의 천연가스를 직접분사함과 동시에 흡입과정 중 흡기관 내에 소량의 저압천연가스를 보조분사하는 경우의 희박한계 확장 및 제반특성에 대해 검토하였다. 그 결과, 흡기보조분사가 없을 경우 희박한계가 ${\lambda}$ = 1.4 까지였으나, 흡기보조분사율이 5~15% 정도에서는 희박한계가 ${\lambda}$ = 1.5 까지 확장되었다. 이는 흡기보조분사에 따른 혼합기의 혼합율 향상에 기인한 것으로 해석하였다. 연소기간은 줄어들었지만, 흡기보조분사의 효과는 주연소기간에서 조기연소기간보다 강하게 나타났다.
