The Royal District in Gyeungju-city was placed in lower surface of alluvial fan that was formed during the Last Glacial Age. During the Holocene, Bukcheon-river was reached in the dynamic equilibrium status and the form of river channel was similar or same to the present. The cases of dying people and carrying houses away by flood for ancient history in Gyeongju were six times, in 131, 160, 350, 496, 657 and 703. Like this big flood was happened at interval of $150{\sim}200$years. A period of big flood appearance in Bukcheon-river was extremely long. Therefore the people who had lived in Gyeongju for ancient history perceived that most part of riverbed of Bukcheon-river was a safety place from flood damages. Not only private houses. In east part of Bunhwangsa temple, that is, west side of Bukcheon-river where the river energy is maximum, a pillow block was built to prevent a lateral erosion but any artificial riverbank was not. In spite of high flood possibility in Bukcheon-river, there was no facility to prevent floods in this section. Also, deposits of flood are not identified. This point is very suggestive that Bukcheon-river did not flood for ancient history.

The purpose of this study was to identify the development and transition of the Original landscape(始景觀) of Oeam Village based on the landscape that changes over time and the relevant factors and the following summarizes the findings: First, Original landscape perceived by the ancestors of Korea was identified in the description of topography and landscape of Oeam Village mentioned in various literature such as "Oeamgi(巍巖記)" and topography was analyzed to identify that the natural waters that flew before Oeam Village was formed aligned with the artificial waterway inside the village. Second, the landscape of Oeam Village was classified by characterized events: (1) expansion of the tribal town of the Yi Family of Yean, (2) stagnancy where the villagers formed an organic relationship without much change to the landscape, (3) the biggest change to the landscape by national policies, and (4) preservation and use of tourism resources based on preservation of cultural heritage. Third, the center of village moved from the east of village to the west of village. In the past, the east of village provided agricultural functions for the development and expansion of village. The center later shifted to the entrance to the west of village under the influence of industrialization and tourism. Further studies would be necessary to clarify the authenticity of resources through additional literature for better understanding of the past of Oeam Village and the transition of the village's landscape elements and the comparison of their characteristics could be possible topics for future studies.

The purpose of this study is to look into the location environment of prehistoric and ancient remains (hereinafter referred as remains) in Daejeon Area. For the purpose of this, out of remains reported in investigation areas so far with the object of remains (total 22 places) of New Stone Age -Proto Three Kingdom period, geographical and Geomorphological analysis was conducted. The results are like the following. Most of the remains are distributed over hills especially flat surface - semi-gentle slope of hills. The bed rocks of the remains (21 places, about 95%) are composed of double-mica granite. The remains (19 places, 86%) retain 'the 1st-2nd small scale river and '5th or higher medium scale river'within comparatively short distance at the same time. The average altitude of remains is 71m and most remains are located over the altitude of 50 - 90m. The average gradient of hillslop where the remains are located is $6.7^{\circ}$ and the remains (15 places, 71%) are located over the gradient of about $0-15^{\circ}$. And the tendency that the higher the gradient of remains the smaller the number of remains was confirmed. From the above, it is judged that the inhabitants who lived in Daejeon Area at that time preferred hills with comparatively not high altitude and the earth's surface of low gradient and in addition they recognized water (river) as being important when they selected the location of settlement (or dwelling sites group).

Yeoheon Jang Hyeongwang(1554-1637), one of the greatest Mid-Joseon Confucianists did systematic studies on universe and nature. It can be considered that he inherited the academic tradition of Cho Sik (曺植) and Jeong Gu(鄭逑) and followed their steps of fengshui (風水) and compilation of geographical records. His living and thought and deserve researching with regard to geographical studies. This paper attempts to analyze Yeoheon's recognition of geography in general. In other words, I shall prove that his view of geography is Neo-Confucian. At the same time, I shall discuss how he named people's residence, how he understanded the Joseon territory, what he thought about fengshui, and what significance the complication of geographical records by his disciples had. Yeoheon considered that land is composed of water, fire, earth, and rock, and understanded the land according to the theory of Zhouyi (周易). He analyzed geographic environments by the system of Zhouyi. His study of geography is basically intended for practical use, and as a result is necessary for people to choose where to live and where to cultivate. In his opinion, it is essential to divide the land of the Joseon by means of geographical differences in order to help people to find a better place to live. We can see his Confucian view from the fact that he placed a greater emphasis on human beings over nature. Therefore, the practical use for humans is the first priority in his study of geography. Meanwhile, he considered nature itself as only the object of study. He realized the vitality of life by making a close observation of nature and attained the mind of the Heaven and Earth in a detached way. He, as a follower of Neo-Confucianism, enjoyed the land by feeling comfortable with his present status and by being satisfied with himself. He put his Confucian view of universe and world into practice in his life. As a part of his efforts, he named his residence and surrounding natural environments with the polar star and 28 stars, and accordingly they are reconstructed in a system of universe. The Confucian tradition of dongcheon gugok (洞天九曲) starting with Zhu Xi's administration of wuyi jiugu (武夷九曲) was widely prevalent during the Joseon period, but Yeoheon's system of organizing places is original. His sense of naming places reflects his ideas of following his predecessors, comparing natural objects to human emotions, and desiring to live in retirement. Yeoheon understanded the Joseon territory with comparison of the Chinese land. He expressed his knowledge in the form of changing geographical features of a district, appreciating natural beauty, locating towns, and being familiar with a region, and proposing his own climatology and view of the reality. His recognition of the Joseon territory resolves itself into the following several points. He regarded the Joseon territory as one organism, and considered the territory to be composed of ki (氣) as Neo-Confucianists usually do. In addition, he understanded not only natural environments but also towns from a perspective of the fengshui and adopted a comparative methodology in dividing regions. He also applied climatology to analyze persons and customs. He employed the methodology of fengshui from the comprehensive theory of the Yijing. It is because he was influenced by Cho Sik and Jeng Gu. Yeoheon chose dwelling places for people, or gave advice on several places of his hometown relying on his knowledge of fengshui. When it comes to his theory of fengshui, he agreed with the theory of topography with regards to the fengshui of tombs, but criticized the custom of delaying funerals in order to turn fortune in one's favor. In addition, he accepted that it is necessary to complement a town by creating forests around it. We need to pay attention to the fact that Yeoheon's disciples complied several geographical records. It proves that they inherited the tradition of "valuing practical use and governing on behalf of the people" from Cho Sik and Jeong Gu. Yeoheon put a great emphasis on geographical records and encouraged his disciples to compile them. In other words, he emphasized that they, as administrator or intellectual, need to be erudite in the history and custom of a region where they have lived, and have to establish a standard to encourage or warn people in the region while considering the geographical records. His opinion functioned as a guideline for his successors to compile geographical records later. This paper only analyzed several facts with regard to Yeoheon's knowledge of geography and an academic tradition concerning the study of geography. In the future, I shall discuss how his predecessors and successors understanded geography and how the tradition of compiling geographical records was transferred and developed between them. I believe that this study will contribute to establishing the history of geography, which the Joseon Confucianists researched for a long time but we have not paid an enough attention to until now.

Prints in the contemporary art has the radical aspects at not only to maintain the characteristic of printmaking in a field of visual image but also to fulfill and communicate a desire of the public. We can see this from the change of the printmaking forms among the alternation of diverse expression methods and media such as from the line-cut at the Renaissance to colored print process, photography, the beginning of 20th century cartoons, advertisement, art, and graphic poster. From that, we can understand the printmaking as a fluid media, not fixed, has finely accomplished its functions as an act of visual language to smoothly communicate with the individual desire and character than word or language at the complex and various cultural surface. This study is focused on that prints as an avant-garde language in popular culture. Therefore, I have examined the following two aspects. First, with focussing at the specific characters of the graphic posters, I try to define the differences between language and visual language and the effect from it to our emotional perception and behavior with the politic and economic point of view. Second, how has the printmaking art as an fine arts finely accomplished an linguistic action. These are the purpose of this study.

Seg fog removal is an important issue concerned by both computer vision and image processing. Sea fog or haze removal is widely used in lots of fields, such as automatic control system, CCTV, and image recognition. Color image dehazing techniques have been extensively studied, and expecially the dark channel prior(DCP) technique has been widely used. This paper propose a fast and efficient image prior - dark channel prior to remove seg-fog from a single digital image based on the GPU. We implement the basic parallel program and then optimize it to obtain performance acceleration with more than 250 times. While paralleling and the optimizing the algorithm, we improve some parts of the original serial program or basic parallel program according to the characteristics of several steps. The proposed GPU programming algorithm and implementation results may be used with advantages as pre-processing in many systems, such as safe navigation for ship, topographical survey, intelligent vehicles, etc.

일반적으로 하천은 오랫동안 장기간의 변화를 겪으며 안정되어 있다. 산사태나 홍수 등 자연적인 변화뿐 아니라 댐이나 교량 등 인위적인 변화에 따라 흐름이나 유사량이 변하게 되며 이런 동적변형상태를 복원하는 과정에서 침식과 퇴적이 반복적으로 이루어져 대규모 하상변동이 이루어지게 된다. 이러한 하천에서 발생하는 대규모의 하상변동에는 일반적으로 1차원 해석이 적용된다. 하천의 일정 하도구간을 고려할 경우 구간의 상류단면으로부터 유입하는 유입토사량과 하류단면에서 유출되는 유출토사량과의 비에 따라 그 구간에는 하상상승(aggradation)및 하상저하(degradation)가 발생하게 되고 이것이 거시적 측면에서 하상변동이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 장기하상변동은 경우에 따라서 이수용도의 수문 혹은 취수구가 노출되거나, 교량의 교각에 국부세굴이 발생되어 붕괴위험이 생기는 등 심각한 문제가 발생할 수가 있다. 본 연구에서는 하상변동 예측 모형 중 신뢰성 및 적용성이 우수한 것으로 인식되고 있는 HEC-6 모형을 형산강수계에 적용하여 4가지 협착부 개선방안에 따른 장기하상변동에의 영향을 검토하고자 하였다. 하천기본계획상의 횡단면도와 유사량 실측값을 이용하여 유사모의 결과를 검증하고 2020년까지의 모형의 계산 값을 이용하여 4가지 대안에 따른 모의 결과와 원안의 결과와 비교 및 분석하였다. 모의한 결과 형산강의 하상변동치가 크지 않은 것은 형산강의 하상이 어느 정도 안정되어 있어 장기적인 하상변동이 크지 않기 때문이다. 따라서 협착부 개선에 따른 대안 1, 2, 3, 4의 하상이 크게 변하지 않음을 보였다. 지형 변화에 따른 장기하상변동에의 영향이 크지 않은 것을 확인할 수 있다.

This study is to re-read Yun, Baek-nam(1888-1954)'s editorial "Theatre and Society" from the perspective of postcolonial criticism. He was a man of the theatre who pursued practical interests in compliance with the colonial reality under the rule of the Japanese imperialism. His advocacy of theatre development work was based on the Japan-directional reformism and on Japan-friendly in following after Japan's improvement policy. His general discussion on Western theatre history had considerable errors as a result of focus on the social role and utility of the theatre. But his vindication of theatre-actor opened an era of interaction between theatre and intelligence in Korea. In addition, his enlightening view of a theatre became such as one of the cornerstones for the Shinkug Movement during Japanese colonial period in Korea.

DEM is needed for urban modeling, forecasting of floods and the analysis of slope and aspect. It has been generated using digital maps, aerial photos or satellite imageries. Recently, however, many studies on DEM generation from LiDAR data has been conducted because of its efficiency and accuracy. Filtering is said to be the process of making DEM by eliminating non-ground points from LiDAR data. In most researches, some input parameters such as the size of filter are required. The purpose of this investigation is to automatically obtain DEM by eliminating objects of various sizes without the knowledge of the objects' sizes. The experimental results show that most of objects on steep terrain are eliminated by the proposed method.

We propose a surveillance-alert system based on optimal placements of PDR(Pulsed Doppler Radar) sensors in USN. By using the detection information of moving target from PDR sensor and by considering the covered detection region and geographical property of the strategic area, three optimal placements of sensors are proposed. The proposed placement are named as the grid type, the linear type and the zigzag type. Also, the surveillance alert system based on three sensor placements are developed. The alert level of the proposed surveillance-alert system are 'Perception', 'Caution', 'Warning' and 'Danger' which are decided by the distance change between the moving targets and the command post. The performace of the developed system is verified via outdoor experiments.
