스마트 시설환경의 제어 요소는 난방기, 창 개폐, 수분/양액 밸브 개폐, 환풍기, 제습기 등 직접적으로 시설환경의 조절에 관여하는 인자와 정보 교환을 위한 통신, 사용자 인터페이스 등 간접적으로 제어에 관련된 요소들이 복합적으로 존재한다. PID 제어와 같이 하는 수학적 논리를 바탕으로 한 제어와 전문 관리자의 지식을 기반으로 한 비선형 학습 모델에 의한 제어 등이 공존할 수 있다. 이러한 다양한 요소들을 복합적으로 연동시키기 위해선 기존의 시퀀스 기반 제어 방식에는 한계가 있을 수 있다. 관행의 방식과 같이 시계열 상에서 획득한 충분한 데이터를 이용하여 제어의 양과 시점을 결정하는 방식은 예외 상황에 충분히 대처하기 어려운 단점이 있을 수 있다. 이러한 예외 상황은 자연적인 조건의 변화에 따라 불가피하게 발생하는 경우와 시스템의 오류에 기인하는 경우로 나뉠 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 실시간으로 변하는 시설환경 내의 다양한 환경요소를 실시간으로 분석하고 상응하는 제어를 수행하여 수학적이며 예측 가능한 논리에 의해 준비된 제어시스템을 보완할 방법을 연구하였다. 과거의 고성능 컴퓨팅(HPC; High Performance Computing)은 다수의 컴퓨터를 고속 네트워크로 연동하여 집적적으로 연산능력을 향상시킨 기술로 비용과 규모의 측면에서 많은 투자를 필요로 하는 첨단 고급 기술이었다. 핸드폰과 모바일 장비의 발달로 인해 소형 마이크로프로세서가 발달하여 근래 2 Ghz의 클럭 속도에 이르는 어플리케이션 프로세서(AP: Application Processor)가 등장하기도 하였다. 상대적으로 낮은 성능에도 불구하고 저전력 소모와 플랫폼의 소형화를 장점으로 한 AP를 시설환경의 실시간 제어에 응용하기 위한 방안을 연구하였다. CPU의 클럭, 메모리의 양, 코어의 수량을 다음과 같이 달리한 3가지 시스템을 비교하여 AP를 이용한 마이크로 클러스터링 기술의 성능을 비교하였다.1) 1.5 Ghz, 8 Processors, 32 Cores, 1GByte/Processor, 32Bit Linux(ARMv71). 2) 2.0 Ghz, 4 Processors, 32 Cores, 2GByte/Processor, 32Bit Linux(ARMv71). 3) 1.5 Ghz, 8 Processors, 32 Cores, 2GByte/Processor, 64Bit Linux(Arch64). 병렬 컴퓨팅을 위한 개발 라이브러리로 MPICH(www.mpich.org)와 Open-MP(www.openmp.org)를 이용하였다. 2,500,000,000에 이르는 정수 중 소수를 구하는 연산에 소요된 시간은 1)17초, 2)13초, 3)3초 이었으며, $12800{\times}12800$ 크기의 행렬에 대한 2차원 FFT 연산 소요시간은 각각 1)10초, 2)8초, 3)2초 이었다. 3번 경우는 클럭속도가 3Gh에 이르는 상용 데스크탑의 연산 속도보다 빠르다고 평가할 수 있다. 라이브러리의 따른 결과는 근사적으로 동일하였다. 선행 연구에서 획득한 3차원 계측 데이터를 1초 단위로 3차원 선형 보간법을 수행한 경우 코어의 수를 4개 이하로 한 경우 근소한 차이로 동일한 결과를 보였으나, 코어의 수를 8개 이상으로 한 경우 앞선 결과와 유사한 경향을 보였다. 현장 보급 가능성, 구축비용 및 전력 소모 등을 종합적으로 고려한 AP 활용 마이크로 클러스터링 기술을 지속적으로 연구할 것이다.

According to the World Agricultural Productivity Report, the current annual average growth rate of agriculture is 1.63%, which is lower than 1.73% to support the world's 10 billion people, which is growing by 2050. The demand for food, feed, and bioenergy is not growing enough to continue to meet the demand, and it is predicting a future food shortage. The purpose of this study was to create a regional irrigation control model for the purpose of reducing the production cost of crops, increasing production, and improving quality, and presenting a model that can give advice to farmers who start farming in the region. The irrigation control modeling presented in this study means to represent the change of medium weight·supply liquid·drainage amount due to changes in the root zone environment according to the passage of time and climate in a graph model. For water control modeling, we collected data on the change in the amount of the root zone environment and the weight of the badge·supply amount·drainage amount from March to June in Nonsan, Buyeo, and Yesan regions in Chungnam Province through the measuring device of the Ministry of Environment in the root region. We set up the parameters for derivation and derived an irrigation control model that can confirm the change in weight·supply liquid·drainage amount over time through the parameters.

육계사의 대형화에 따른 최적환경조성의 중요성이 대두되고 있어서, 이에 따른 적합한 시설환경이 더욱 요구되고 있으나 적정환기가 이루어지지 않아 육계의 생산성 향상에 어려움이 많이 있다. 국내 대형육계사내 최적환경제어를 위한 주요환경변수의 기초자료가 매우 부족한 실정이다. 최 등(1999)은 육계사의 대표적인 여러 계사구조에서 온도, 습도, 유해가스농도 및 육계의 체중, SDS 발생율 및 폐사율, 도체이상 발생율 등을 조사하였다 황보 등(2002)은 3(W)$\times$5(L)$\times$3(H)의 무창계사에서 환경요소 중에 온도, 습도, 공기유속을 분석하여 환경효율을 조사하였다. 대부분의 관련연구들의 자료로는 계사내 환경 균일성, 적정성, 안정성 등을 효과적으로 분석하는 것이 어려웠다.

This paper analyzes optimal watershed management focusing on reservoir-level sediment removal techniques. Although dams and reservoirs provide several benefits, sedimentation may reduce their storage capacity. As of today, the Aswan High Dam (AHD) in Egypt faces approximately 76% reduced life of the reservoir. Since the AHD is the major fresh water source in Egypt, sustainable use of this resource is extremely important. A model is developed to simultaneously determine optimal sediment removal strategies for upstream soil conservation efforts and reservoir-level sediment control. Two sediment removal techniques are considered: mechanical dredging and hydro-suction sediment removal system (HSRS). Moreover, different levels of upstream soil conservation efforts have introduced to control soil erosion, which is a major contributor of reservoir storage capacity reduction. We compare a baseline case, which implies no management alternative, to non-cooperative and social planners' solution. Our empirical results indicate that the socially optimal sediment removal technique is a mechanical dredging with unconstrained amount with providing a sustainable life of the reservoir. From the empirical results, we find that social welfare can be as high as $151.01 billion, and is sensitive to interest rates and agricultural soil loss.

Domestic agriculture is facing real problems, such as a decrease in the population in rural areas, a shortage of labor due to an aging population, and increased risks due to the deepening of climate change. Smart farming technology is being developed to solve these problems. In the development of smart agricultural technology, irrigation control plays an important role in creating an optimal growth environment and is an important issue in terms of environmental protection. This paper is about the study of collecting and analyzing the rhizosphere environmental data of domestic paprika farms for the purpose of improving the quality of crops, reducing production costs, and increasing production. Irrigation control modeling presented in this paper Control modeling is to graphically present changes in a medium weight, feed, and drainage due to regional climatic features. To derive the graph, the parameters were determined through data collection and analysis, and the suggested irrigation control modeling method was applied to the collected rhizosphere environmental data to control irrigation in 6 regions (Gangwon-do, Chungnam, Jeonbuk, Jeonnam, Gyeongbuk, and Gyeongnam). The parameters were obtained and graphs were derived from them. After that, a study was conducted to analyze the derived parameters to verify the validity of the irrigation control modeling method and to correlate them with climatic features (average temperature and precipitation).

The adaptation of smartfarm technology that converges ICT is increasing productivity and competitiveness in the agriculture. Technologies have been developed that enable environmental monitoring through various sensors and automatic control of the cultivation environment, and researches are underway to advance smartfarm technology using data generated from smartfarms. In this paper, an environmental control method to reduce the energy consumption of a smartfarm by using the environment and control data of the smartfarm is proposed. It was confirmed that energy consumption could be reduced compared to an independent environmental control method by creating an environmental prediction model using accumulated environmental data and selecting a control method to minimize energy consumption in a given situation by considering multiple environmental factors. In the future, research is needed to obtain higher energy efficiency through the advancement of the predictive model and the improvement of the complex control algorithms.

Recently, the USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology is emerging as an aspect of digital convergence trends which is being rapidly evolving in the whole society. The technological feasibility for the various application services using the USN is researched in numerous industries, but, in the agricultural field, the market of USN application service, technology adoption and commercialization have been delayed. In the agricultural field, the ubiquitous technologies could lead to huge change in the conventional surroundings such as growth environment of livestock, crop cultivation and harvest. In this paper, to offer a integrated management, we construct a u-swinery(ubiquitous swinery) system which is consisted with USN environmental sensors to collect information from physical phenomenon such as luminance, relative humidity, temperature and ammonia gas. Numbers of CCTV were also installed to monitor inside and outside of the swinery. The u-swinery integrated management system can monitor and control the condition of swinery from remote sites. Furthermore, by gathering the cumulative environmental data from the system, the optimal growth condition for the livestock could be created.
