In recent years, the substantial increase in the population's average age leads to an exceeded number of older persons comparing with the number of any other age group. As a result, both industry and academia are focused on the development of several solutions aimed to guarantee a healthy and safe lifestyle to the elderly. Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) approach is the way to guarantee better life conditions for the aged and for monitoring their health conditions by the development of innovative technologies and services. AAL technologies can also provide more safety for the elderly, offering emergency response mechanisms, fall detection solutions, and video surveillance systems. Unfortunately, due to the sensitive nature of AAL data, AAL systems should satisfy security requirements such as integrity, confidentiality, availability, anonymity, and others. In this paper, we propose an adaptive authentication protocol for the AAL systems. The proposed authentication protocol not only supports several important security requirements needed by the AAL systems, but can also withstand various types of attacks. In addition, the security analysis results show that the proposed authentication protocol is more efficient and secure than the existing authentication protocols.

The smart-car industry has emerged as the important variable that will decide the future industrial contour of the automotive industry, together with commercialization of electronic vehicles, connected cars, infotainment, telematics, and the autonomous/self-driving car. This study analyzes the strategic position of platform companies and car manufacturers that would determine the future of the smart-car market. The findings of this study show that despite the entry barriers in industrial factors, such as economies of scale, the industrial infrastructure, and global production networks, and technical factors like exclusive head-sector information, car manufacturers may be deprived of their industrial leadership by platform companies with map and user data, big data capabilities, and user interface experience if they lag behind ICT innovation. This insight is based on the emerging importance of software and platforms, and the simplification of car structures, proven by the successful commercialization of electronic vehicles. This study complements existing studies mainly focused on technical aspects of the smart-car industry by examining the strategic dimensions of platform companies and their approach to the future smart-car market by comparing them with existing car manufacturing multinationals.

In the course of the emergence and development of new ICT technologies and services such as Big Data, Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence, the future will change by these new innovations in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The future of this fourth industrial revolution will change and our future will be data-based society or economy. Since there is personal information at the center of it, the development of the economy through the utilization of personal information will depend on how to make the personal information protection laws. In Korea, which is trying to lead the 4th industrial revolution, it is a legal interest that can not give up the use of personal information, and also it is an important legal benefit that can not give up the personal interests of individuals who want to protect from personal information. Therefore, it is necessary to change the law on personal information protection in a rational way to harmonize the two. In this regard, this article discusses the problems of duplication and incompatibility of the personal information protection law, the scope of application of the personal information protection law and the uncertainty of the judgment standard, the lack of flexibility responding to the demand for the use of reasonable personal information, And there is a problem of reverse discrimination against domestic area compared to the regulated blind spot in foreign countries. In order to solve these problems and to improve the legislation of personal information protection in the era of the fourth industrial revolution, we proposed to consider both personal information protection and safe use by improving the purpose and regulation direction of the personal information protection law. The balance and harmony between the systematical maintenance of the personal information protection legislation and laws and regulations were also set as important directions. It is pointed out that the establishment of rational judgment criteria and the legislative review to clarify it are necessary for the constantly controversial personal information definition regulation and the method of allowing anonymization information as the intermediate domain. In addition to the legislative review for the legitimate and non-invasive use of personal information, there is a need to improve the collective consent system for collecting personal information to differentiate the subject and to improve the legislation to ensure the effectiveness of the regulation on the movement of personal information between countries. In addition to the issues discussed in this article, there may be a number of challenges, but overall, the protection and use of personal information should be harmonized while maintaining the direction indicated above.

본 총설에서는 새로운 방부제와 방부처리 기술의 현재 발전 동향을 요약, 보고한다. 많은 새로운 방부제들이 약제의 독성 측면에서 환경적인 충격을 완화시킬 수 있는 잠재성을 가지고 있지만, 방부제로서 상업화되기 위해서는 이러한 약제들은 약제의 효능과 환경 안전성 간의 몇 가지 상호 조정 관계가 반드시 해결되어야 한다. Ammoniacal copper 계통의 방부제들이 지접부 사용에 적합한 새로운 수용성 방부제들의 주종을 이루고 있으며, 기존의 유용성 방부제들을 물에 용해한 emulsion 형태도 지접부 사용의 가능성을 보여 준다. 새로운 유용성 방부제 중에서 copper naphthenate, substituted isothiazolones, chlorothalonil, oxine copper가 지접부 사용을 위한 최상의 후보로 평가되고 있다. 유용성 방부제를 emulsion 형태로 사용하는 것은 유용성 방부제에 사용되는 석유 계통 용제의 소비를 감소시키기 때문에 중대한 의미를 가진다. 방부제들의 효능을 개선하고 강화시키기 위해 사용되는 첨가제들도 본 총설에서 거론된다. 재질개량을 위해 사용되는 비통상적인 방법(nonconventional system)들도 생물학적 열화 및 기상열화에 대한 저항성을 부여하여 목재의 사용수명을 증가시킨다. 전처리 공정에서 침상 자상처리(Needle incising)와 레이져 자상처리는 난주입 수종의 처리도를 개선시킬 수 있는 잠재성을 가지고 있다. 처리기술에 있어서 여러 가지 혁신적인 변화들은 기존의 처리 schedule을 조성함에 그 기본을 두고 있다. 난주입 수종의 처리도 개선은 pulsation법이나 고압 약제 분사법 (high energy liquid jets) 같은 고압을 적용하는 처리법에 의해서 달성된다. 미래의 처리공장들은 방부제를 기체상태로 또는 물질의 임계점 이상에서 방부제를 처리할 수도 있다. 이러한 새로운 접근은 외관이 깨끗하고, 처리도도 매우 양호한 처리재를 생산하는데 일조하리라 기대한다. 환경에 대한 대중적인 지대한 관심은 앞으로 목재 방부산업에 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 보인다. 결과적으로 방부제의 처리목재내 가속 정착에 관한 연구에 상당한 노력이 투자될 것이다. 처리 후 가공에 관한 다른 주요한 연구는 방부제 처리 후 실시되는 재건조가 처리재의 역학적 성질에 미치는 영향에 대한 것이다.
