This paper investigates spatial distribution of the knowledge-information occupations by utilizing Geographical Information System(GIS). The knowledge-information occupations, comprised mainly of professionals, engineers and managers, have played a key role in the knowledge-based information society. The uneven development of bureaucratization and informatization among regions have resulted in unequal spatial distribution of the knowledge-information occupations. Analysis of 1995 and 2000 Census shows that these occupations tend to concentrate in some major metropolitan areas, while the other areas show rather traditional occupational structure. This spatial unequality has been also found in the occupational distribution within Seoul. This tendency of spatial concentration in the occupational distribution inherited from the industrial society and is not going to diminish in the knowledge-information society. More aggressive policies to make the most of decentralizing impacts of information and communication technologies should be implemented to counter-balance this tendency.

In this study, 64 administrative regions with high frequencies of apartment trade in Seoul, Korea are classified by the apartment sale price. To consider distributions of apartment price for each region as well as the mean of the price, the symbolic histogram-valued data approach is employed. Symbolic data include all types of data which have internal variation in themselves such as intervals, lists, histograms, distributions, and models, etc. As a result of the cluster analysis using symbolic histogram data, it is found that Gangnam, Seocho, and Songpa districts and regions near by those districts have relatively higher prices and larger dispersions. This result makes sense because those regions have good accessibility to downtown and educational environment.

Heavy rain and heavy snow as representative extreme weather are recently an issue in urban area. The paper aims at modeling the scenarios of evacuation that minimizes economic loss of the designated urban area with improving travel efficiency by providing road closure information facing an extremely heavy rainfall. The paper develops a model by using a NetLogo toolkit applied to the study area of Seocho-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul. The model conducts a simulation of travel time under different scenarios of information provision. The simulation results show that it is efficient to provide the information of road closure to 20~40% of the drivers under the scenario of humid road or rainfall less than 20mm, whereas to 40~60% of the drivers under the scenario of heavy rainfall more than 20mm.

최근 우리나라는 집중호우로 인한 토석류의 발생이 현저하게 증가하고 있으며, 2002년 태풍 루사와 2003년 매미 그리고 2006년 7월 집중호우 등으로 인한 피해의 규모는 여러 조사와 문헌에서도 확인할 수 있다. 2011년 7월, 서울 우면산 일대에서는 집중호우로 인한 토석류가 발생하였으며, 16명의 인명손실을 포함한 큰 피해가 있었다. 우면산 토석류는 십여 개 지역에서 동시다발적으로 발생하였으며, 토석류 발생 유역 특성과 토석류의 유동특성을 분석하기 위한 현장 조사가 진행되었다. 조사한 자료에 따르면 우면산 일대의 일일 강우량은 서초 기상측정소를 기준으로 최대 24시간 누적 324mm 그리고 시간당 최대 68.5mm/hr를 기록하였다. 상업용 소프트웨어인 FLO-2D는 유사농도의 함수로서 점성(viscous)응력, 항복(yield)응력, 난류 및 분산(dispersive) 응력항을 포함하는 2차 유변학(quadratic rheology) 모델을 기본으로 사용하여 이류(mudflow)와 토석류(debris flow)를 모의할 수 있다. FLO-2D는 흐름의 운동량 및 에너지 보존을 고려하여 격자와 시간에 관계없이 유동심도, 속도, 압력을 예측할 수 있으며, 격자 기반의 모델로서 GIS 및 기타 응용 프로그램들과 연동이 쉽다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 하상침식에 의해 유발된 토석류의 체적 증가는 고려 할 수 없으므로 토석류의 전파 및 퇴적영역에서의 토석류 모의에만 사용할 수 있는 단점이 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 FLO-2D 소프트웨어를 이용하여 우면산에서의 토석류 현상을 재현하는 것이다. 우면산 일대에서 발생한 토석류 중 서초구 방배동의 래미안 아파트 부근에서 발생한 토석류에 대하여 수치지도(DEM)와 현장조사를 통해 얻은 지형자료, 해당 지역의 강우량 및 지질 특성 자료 등을 토대로 FLO-2D 모델을 적용하여 토석류의 흐름특성을 검토한다. 토석류 유동 및 퇴적에 대한 가용한 현장관측 자료와의 비교 분석을 통하여 토석류 특성 값을 산정하고, 모델의 적용성을 검증한다.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of malocclusion and orthodontic treatment on the self-esteem of adolescents. Methods: The subjects were composed of 3509 female middle school students. Each subject was evaluated with Rosenberg's Self-esteem Scale to measure the level of self-esteem and also evaluated the degree of crowding and soft tissue profile. Results: Results showed that protrusion of lip area had no effects on self-esteem but crowding of upper anterior teeth had significant effects. The fixed orthodontic treatment group and the removable orthodontic treatment group reported no significant difference in self-esteem from the no orthodontic treatment experience group, but the debonding group showed significantly higher Self-esteem index. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that anterior teeth alignment has influence on the self-esteem of female adolescents.

This study was carried into execution to analyze Spatial Characteristics of Seoul Business Services Cluster in circumstance of local economic development led by knowledge-intensive business services. The analysis was performed for industrial agglomeration and companies' linkage and network. As the result, there are three business services cluster, including the largest one in Gang-Nam Gu, Seoul, and for last 10 years, there has been increasing development of business services cluster. In the meanwhile, their linkage and network have not been performed briskly. Therefore, from now on, a plan that can help companies' linkage and network performed inside of cluster to have active and international structure has to be considered in cluster policy.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effects of location factors on sales by restaurant type in the six districts of Seoul (Jongno-gu, Jung-gu, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Gangnam-gu, Seocho-gu, and Songpa-gu). Ordinary least squares (OLS) regression model is selected for four restaurant types whose spatial autocorrelation is not identified, spatial lag model (SLM) is only selected for seafood restaurant, and spatial error model (SEM) is selected for nine other restaurant types. The floating population and the workers of surrounding businesses have generally positive effects on the sales of restaurants. The floating population elasticity of the sales of restaurants are found to be in the descending order of Oriental food, pub, Western food, and traditional food restaurant, and the elasticity of the workers of surrounding businesses are in the descending order of bakery, Oriental food, and Western food restaurant. The spatial multiplier effects are in the descending order of Oriental food, pub, and Western food restaurant. There is a statistically significant sales gap between roast meat, pub, and bakery in Gangnam-gu and those in five other districts. The results of this research can help in starting a restaurant in that they can provide information on the suitability of location by restaurant type.

South Korea has many landslides caused by heavy rains during summer time recently and the landslides continue to cause damages in many places. These landslides occur repeatedly each year, and the frequency of landslides is expected to increase in the coming future due to dramatic global climate change. In Korea, 81.5% of the population is living in urban areas and about 1,055 million people are living in Seoul. In 2011, the landslide that occurred in Seocho-dong killed 18 people and about 9% of Seoul's area is under the same land conditions as Seocho-dong. Even the size of landslide occurred in a city is small, but it is more likely to cause a big disaster because of a greater population density in the city. So far, the effort has been made to identify landslide vulnerability and causes, but now, the new dem and arises for the prediction study about the areal extent of disaster area in case of landslides. In this study, the diffusion model of the landslide disaster area was established based on Cellular Automata(CA) to analyze the physical diffusion forms of landslide. This study compared the accuracy with the Seocho-dong landslide case, which occurred in July 2011, applying the SCIDDICA model and the CAESAR model. The SCIDDICA model involves the following variables, such as the movement rules and the topographical obstacles, and the CAESAR model is also applied to this process to simulate the changes of deposition and erosion.

Korean government proposed a new initiative 'government 3.0' with which the administration will open its dataset to the public before requests. City of Seoul is the front runner in disclosure of government data. If we know what kind of attributes are governing factors for any given segmentation, these outcomes can be applied to real world problems of marketing and business strategy, and administrative decision makings. However, with respect to city of Seoul, selection of optimal variables from the open dataset up to several thousands of attributes would require a humongous amount of computation time because it might require a combinatorial optimization while maximizing dissimilarity measures between clusters. In this study, we acquired 718 attribute dataset from Statistics Korea and conducted an analysis to select the most suitable variables, which differentiate Gangnam from other districts, using the Genetic algorithm and Dunn's index. Also, we utilized the Microsoft Azure cloud computing system to speed up the process time. As the result, the optimal 28 variables were finally selected, and the validation result showed that those 28 variables effectively group the Gangnam from other districts using the Ward's minimum variance and K-means algorithm.
