In the process of vaccine delivery and vaccination, temperature is mostly controlled by an insulated containers containing ice. Moreover, amount of wasted vaccine is significant because the temperature of the vaccine is not properly controlled. A core challenge of vaccination is temperature data monitoring, since it is critical for managing and operating strategical vaccination by health organizations. In this research, a real-time monitoring vaccine carrier system was developed. Temperature, location, and power consumption data of the vaccine carrier were monitored and working performances of the vaccine carrier were tested in both Korea and Tanzania (Arusha and Kilimanjaro regions). For both places, Short Message Service (SMS) communication method was used to send information of the carrier's status. As a result, the monitoring system was able to transmit and receive real-time data of the vaccine carrier status while the vaccine carrier was tested. The vaccine status data can be accessed from any location through the cloud server and web-based user interface.

The smart farm for livestock, in which information and communication technology (ICT) is combined with livestock farm, is mostly based on the cloud computing paradigm. A cloud-based smart livestock farm has disadvantages such as increased response time, burden on cloud resource caused by the increased number of IoT sensors, traffic burden on the network, and lack of failure resilience mechanisms through collaboration with adjacent IoT devices. In this paper, with these problems in mind, we propose an IoT collaboration system based on edge computing. By using the relatively limited computing resources of the edge device to share the cloud's web server function, we aim to reduce the cloud's resources needed and improve response time to user requests. In addition, through the heartbeat-based failure recovery mechanism, IoT device failures were detected and appropriate measures were taken.

In this paper, we present a daily activity monitoring system by using a wireless sensor network. The proposed system is installed in glove for activity monitoring. The RFID reader, to send data by using sensor network platform and RFID tag are small size, the shape of quadrangle, and operate in the frequency of 13.56 MHz. The sensor node can read RFID tags on the various objects used in daily living such as furniture, medicines, and kitchenwares. The sensor node reads the data of RFID tags, it transmits wireless packets to the sink node. The sink node sends the received packet immediately to a server system. The data from each RFID system is collected into a database, and then the data are processed to visualize the measurement of daily living activities of users. We provide a web-based monitoring system, and can see the number of RFID tag readings per day as bar charts. The result of experiments demonstrates that the way we propose can help to check the situation of life for people who live alone.

Today the use of RFID is extended in medical. circulation market, manufacture, security field, etc. Besides, the book-lending and the attendance management system are on an increasing trend in the use of RFID The developed dormitory management system is composed of a support program, a room management program, a manager program, and a mobile program etc.. In the support program a student(or a manager) can see his(or all member's) entrance and exit history. The room management program decides whether a student can enter the dormitory or not and manages the use of the power after or inquiring a RFID's input tag information into database server. The manager program is able to input and modify a room state and the fixtures information in the room required to operate the room management program, to set up and retrieve a student's entrance and exit information and a room state information. The mobile program enables a manager to check student's identity whether he is in or out, and the manager can know the personal information of being out in detail.

The increasing interest in leisure activities of a five-day work per week has been recently prevailed. Additionally, as internet and mobile infrastructures have been becoming widespread, the user can get specific information using a search engine. However, it is difficult for the user to get accurate information they really want as shared information has been rapidly increased and the information has been searched. For example, users can retrieve required travel information, but they also must see a huge number of travel advertisements. In this paper, we design and implement a retrieval system using travel information collecting agent. The information gathering agent regularly visits travel-related category pages of the portal sites and major media travel-article pages to collect information related to travel, and the agent stores the gathered information to a database. Then, users can search the travel information conveniently without the need to view advertisements.

Clinical nomogram is a graphical representation of numeric formula, constructed from clinical cases database of followed patients' treatment, which is used for medical predication. For a clinical nomogram to contribute patient care, it is required to accumulate as many as clinical cases and to extract medical prediction knowledge. It needs to be equipped with an effective method to build medical nomogram with high predication accuracy. It is desirable for medical nomogram to be accessible at patient care point. This paper proposes a medical nomogram service system architecture which takes into account the above-mentioned issues. The proposed system architecture includes a web-based database subsystem to maintain and keep track of clinical cases. On the periodic basis, a new clinical nomogram is reconstructed for the updated clinical database. For the convenient use of patient care practice environment, an app-based program is provided which makes prediction based on the most recent clinical nomogram constructed in the service system. The proposed method has been applied to a clinical nomogram service system development for recurrence and survival prediction in bladder cancer patients.

In this paper, we implement an unmanned delivery robot system with Robot Operating System(ROS)-based mobile manipulator, and introduce the technologies employed for the system implementation. The robot consists of a mobile robot capable of autonomous navigation inside the building using an elevator and a Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm(SCARA)-Type manipulator equipped with a vacuum pump. The robot can determines the position and orientation for picking up a package through image segmentation and corner detection using the camera on the manipulator. The proposed system has a user interface implemented to check the delivery status and determine the real-time location of the robot through a web server linked to the application and ROS, and recognizes the shipment and address at the delivery station through You Only Look Once(YOLO) and Optical Character Recognition(OCR). The effectiveness of the system is validated through delivery experiments conducted within a 4-story building.
