An automatic flow and water quality monitoring system was applied to estimate pollutant loads to an urban stream during storm events in DTV (Daeduk Techno Valley), Daejeon, Korea. The monitoring system consists of rainfall gage, ultrasonic water level meter, water quality sensors for DO, temperature, pH, conductivity, turbidity and automatic water sampler for further laboratory analysis. All data are transmitted through on-line system and the monitoring system is designed to be controlled manually in the field and remotely from laboratory computer. Flow rates were verified with field measurements during storm events and showed good agreements. Automatic sampler was used to collect real time samples and analyzed for BOD, COD, TN, TP, SS and other pollutant concentrations in the laboratory. SWMM (Storm Water Management Model) urban watershed model was applied and calibrated using the observed flow and water quality data for the study area. While flow modeling results showed good agreement for all events, water quality modeling results showed variable levels of agreement. These results indicate that current options in the SWMM model to predict pollutant build up and wash-off effects are not sufficient to satisfy modeling of all the rainfall events under study and thus need further modification. This study showed the automatic monitoring system can be used to provide data to assist further refinement of modeling accuracy. This automatic stormwater monitoring and modeling system can be used to develop basin scale water quality management strategies of urban streams in storm events.

In this paper, we propose a visual multi-touch air input device using vision cameras. The implemented device provides a barehanded interface which copes with the multi-touch operation. The proposed device is easy to apply to the real-time systems because of its low computational load and is cheaper than the existing methods using glove data or 3-dimensional data because any additional equipment is not required. To do this, first, we propose an image processing algorithm based on the HSV color model and the labeling from obtained images. Also, to improve the accuracy of the recognition of hand gestures, we propose a motion recognition algorithm based on the geometric feature points, the skeleton model, and the Kalman filter. Finally, the experiments show that the proposed device is applicable to remote controllers for video games, smart TVs and any computer applications.

In this paper, a testing architecture and procedure that an idle ATM virtual channel can be utilized for TCP channel is proposed. Four kinds or methodologies for protocol conformance testing have been standardized in ISO. Remote testing method used popularly have some disadvantages that developer must operate system manually in case of System Under Test (SUT) active testing and we cannot control and observe Implementation Under Test (IUT) often. It is proper to adopt distribute testing method than remote test in order to maximize test coverage and optimize fault coverage for conformance testing in ATM systems, and it is required that TCP channel is prepared for distribute testing method. The proposed architecture can adopt distributed testing method without extra physical channel for testing control. Also we can maximize the test coverage and implement the automation of testing without intervention of operator sustaining normal operation of ATM equipment.

In recent years, the aircraft interior industry has been rapidly evolving, incorporating advanced information technology (IT) elements as competition in the aviation industry intensifies. In Korea, a display system for aircraft, called cabin display system (CDS), is being developed in collaboration with Boeing. This paper discusses the design and implementation of cabin display system remote control software (CDS RCS), a remote control software for the CDS. CDS RCS was developed by applying the aircraft data load process developed in-house using the ARINC-615A standard, and the communication protocol between devices applies the MQTT protocol. Unlike existing CDS control software, CDS RCS is designed as an MQTT client and can operate independently of other MQTT clients. It is also developed for android-based devices, which can be easily installed on personal terminals, and is expected to greatly enhance the convenience of flight attendants.

The design, construction and performance test of a convenient multi-purpose irradiator is described. A multi-purpose irradiator using Cesium-137 has been developed for studies of low dose radiation effects in biology and for calibration of Thermo Luminescent dosimeter(TLD). During the operation, three rods of radioactive material which are 10cm in length revolve 180 degrees and irradiate biological samples, or TLD, and return to their shielded position, after the programmed time. A programmable Logic Controller(PLC) controls the sequence of operation, interlock, motor rotation and safety system. The rotation speed of biological samples can vary up to 20 RPM. A real time monitoring system was also incorporated to check and control the operation status of the irradiator. The capacity of the irradiation chamber was 4.5 liters. The isodose distribution at arbitrary vertical planes was measured by using film dosimetry. The dose-rate was 0.13 cGy/min in air and 0.11 cGy/min in water equivalent material in the case of Cesium-137. Range of activity was 2 Ci. The homogeneity of dose distribution in the chamber was ${\pm}$7%. The actual radiation level on the surface was within permissible levels. The irradiator had a maximum 0.35 mR/min radiation leakage on its surface.

In this paper, we propose the development of a smart space security device that can be opened and closed remotely using IoT. Existing space security devices can control opening and closing by breaking hardware or only using button devices or replicated keys. The recent COVID-19 crisis has created several applications for non-contact devices. In this study, we propose the development of a small space security device that has the function of unlocking through an app without touching the device. By transferring the control authority to a smartphone, device that cannot be opened or closed by only operating hardware at the user's option. It is convenient and hygienic because it can be opened and closed using an app without touching the locking device. Multiple security is possible because security can be released using an app after user authentication by fingerprint recognition and pattern input on a smartphone. If the user wishes, after using the app security, the security is released by directly touching a button installed in the safe or space or opening it with a key. In addition, by adding an inactive function to the app, it is designed so that the door of the safe cannot be opened when the key is lost or the small safe is lost. This study is expected to be able to effectively expand the security system by applying variously to objects that require security.

Demand Controller is a control device that if current electric power consumption seems to exceed the targeted amount of electric power, block the connected load devices. When this ON/OFF way is applied to electric power management of electric furnace, start and stop operation of inverter and an electric heater which supplying electric power is being performed repeatedly. This has a problem of life-shortening of inverter and an electric heater by electrical damage. In addition, when electric power supplying is blocked, attemperation is not allowed until return to normal operation condition. In this paper, we develop power management system for electric furnace using the electric furnace remote controller. This system provides the automatic control for approved electric power to electric furnace organically and prevent electric damage of inverter and an electric heater through continuous electric power supply within the targeted amount of electric power.

The goal of this research is to implement a PC-based remote control system of ion implanter using Visual Basic programming. Presently, skilled process engineers are required to regularly setup and adjust implanter parameters. Any reduction in the number of production hours devoted to ion beam implanter setup or recalibration after a species change would represent substantial improvements in both manpower and equipment utilization. An optical communication system for the remote control and telemetry in the operation of the 50kev potential was designed and constructed. This system enables continuous and safe operation of the ion implanter and can be the basis for the automation. The isolation characteristics of optical fiber were 10kV/cm, and performance tests of the system under the intense noise environment during the implanter operations showed satisfactory results. This system is designed to completely replace the existing human-machine interface with many new functions. This paper describes the important components of the system including system architecture and software development. It is expected that this system can be used for the communication and control purpose in the high noise environments such as the operation of the MeV energy implanter or other high power, high noise systems.
