The impact protection system consists of an arrangement of circular sheet pile cofferdams-denoted dolphin structuredeeply embedded in the seabed, filled with crushed rock and closed at the top with a robust concrete cap. Centrifuge model tests were performed to investigation the behaviors of dolphins in this study. Total 7 quasi-model tests and 11 dynamic model tests were performed. The main experimental results can be summarized as follows. Firstly, The experimental force-displacement results for quasi-static tests show a limited influence on the initial stiffness of the structure from the change in fill density and the related change in the stiffness of the fill. And by comparing the dissipation at the same dolphin displacement it was found that the denser fill increase the dissipation by 16% for the 20m dolphin and by 23% for the 30m dolphin. The larger sensitivity for the large dolphin is explained by a larger contribution to the dissipation from strain in the fill. In low level impacts the dynamic force-response is up to 26~58% larger than the quasi-static and the dissipation response is showed larger in small displacement. Hence, it is concluded conservative to use the quasi-static response characteristics in the approximation of the response, and it is further concluded that the dolphin resistance to low level impacts is demonstrated to be equivalent and even superior to the high level impacts.

This paper proposes the concept of "virtual sensor data" and its application for real time obstacle avoidance. The virtual sensor data is virtual distance which takes care of the movement of the obstacle as well as that of the robot. In practical application, the virtual sensor data is calculated from the odometry data and the range sensor data. The virtual sensor data can be used in all the methods which use distance data for collision avoidance. Since the virtual sensor data considers the movement of the robot and the obstacle, the methods utilizing the virtual sensor data results in more smooth and safer collision-free motion.

As the ubiquitous technology has penetrated into almost every aspect of modern life, the research of the security technology to solve the weakness of security in the ubiquitous environment is received much attention. Because, however, today's security systems are usually based on the fixed rules, many security systems can not handle diverse situations in the ubiquitous environment appropriately. Although many existing researches on context aware security service are based on ACL (Access Control List) or RBAC (Role Based Access Control), they have an overhead in the management of security policy and can not manipulate unexpected situations. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a context-aware security service providing multiple authentications and authorization from a security level which is decided dynamically in a context-aware environment using FCM (Fuzzy C-Means) clustering algorithm and Fuzzy Decision Tree. We show proposed model can solve typical conflict problems of RBAC system due to the fixed rules and improve overhead problem in the security policy management. We expect to apply the proposed model to the various applications using contextual information of the user such as healthcare system, rescue systems, and so on.

IEEE 802.15.4 standard which has low-speed, low-power, low-cost can be efficiently used in wireless sensor network environment. Among various topologies used in IEEE 802.15.4 standard, a cluster-tree topology which has many nodes in it, transmit delay, energy consumption and data loss due to traffic concentration around the sink node. In this paper, we propose the MRS-DCA algorithm that minimizes conflicts between packets for efficient data transmission, and dynamically allocates the active period for efficient use of limited energy. The MRS-DCA algorithm allocates RP(Reservation Period) to the active period of IEEE 802.15.4 and guarantees reliable data transmission by allocating RP and CAP dynamically which is based on prediction using EWMA. The comparison result shows that the MRS-DCA algorithm reduces power consumption by reducing active period, and increasing transmission rate by avoiding collision.

When user wants to animate more than one character, some unexpected motion animation like a collision between characters may occur. Therefore, this problem must be resolved using a proper control mechanism. Therefore, this problem must be resolved using a proper control mechanism. This paper proposes an agent-based system that controls the motion animation of the character for representing animation scenario reflecting user\`s intention. This system provides a method that coordinates a type of motion and avoids collision between characters according to the moving path of a character in three-dimensional space. Agent communicates with others for motion synchronization. Agent is extended into several intelligent agents that coordinate character\`s motion. Agent system enables not only an intended motion animation, but also the scheduling of motion to an entire character animation. It designs automata model using Petri-net analysis tool for the agent\`s interaction as a method that passes the agent\`s information and infers the current state of agents. We implement this agent system to control the motion of character using agent technology and show an example of controlling the motion of human character model to prove the possiblity of motion control.

Recently, research on the automation of home IoT has been carried out in which IoT (Internet of Things) is applied inside the home. However, the conventional IoT automation system has a problem that the operation of the device is limited only by the threshold value of the sensor, so that the device may collide and interfere with each other and the efficiency of the Task is low due to the malfunction of the device. In this paper, we propose a Situation-specific task classification algorithm to solve these problems. Using the sensor threshold and the current date as classification values in the decision tree, the task according to the internal situation of the home is classified and the corresponding device is selected and proceeded. Therefore, it is expected that the users will be provided with a service that changes flexibly according to changes in the internal situation of the home, and the accuracy of the operation will be increased by reducing the malfunction of the device and the collision between the devices.

Hannam-dong, which lies at the eastern part of Yongsan-gu in metropolitan Seoul has been known as one of the affluent area, but actually it is divided into different sub-areas including poor ones. Although it used to be a quiet residential neighborhood, be they rich or poor, some streets (gil) have become the places of creative economy since the late 2000s. The place-making of Hannam-dong is accompanied by taking-place of different creative classes in different sub-areas, and there have emerged contestation, negotiation and clash among them at the contact zone. While the big companies such as Samsung explores their own version of cultural/creative entrepreneurialism in one sub-area, the actors that can be dubbed as 'creative small producer' and/or 'creative underlass' produce Hangangjin-gil and Usadan-gil as artistic-cum-economic communities by deploying cultural capital. All in all, Hannam-dong is an interesting case that different types of gentrifications are produced by different actors in different sub-areas, which results in producing another kind of 'community of strangers' where different (creative) classes share a physical location, but do not have lasting social interactions and communicative networks.

A search algorithm for the collision free, time optimal transport path of overhead cranes has been proposed in this paper. The map for the working environment of overhead cranes was constructed in the form of three dimensional grid. The obstacle occupied region and unoccupied region of the map has been represented using the octree model. The best-first search method with a suitable estimation function was applied to select the knot points on the collision free transport path to the octree model. The optimization technique, minimizing the travel time required for transporting objects to the goal while subjected to the dynamic constraints of the crane system, was developed to find the smooth time optimal path in the form of cubic spline functions which interpolate the selected knot points. Several simulation results showed that the selected estimation function worked effectively insearching the knot points on the collision free transport path and that the resulting transport path was time optimal path while satisfying the dynamic constraints of the crane system.

In this paper, the performance of switched ethernet networks with different topologies as an industrial control networks is analyzed. The switched ethernet eliminated data collisions on the network and can be used to transmit real-time data. While the amount of data on the network is small compared to the computer networks, the industrial control networks require the real-time data delivery. In this paper, we analyze and compare the network performance of switched ethernet networks with linear and tree topologies whether they satisfy the real-time data delivery requirement needed to be used as the industrial control networks.

This paper presents an algorithm for finding valid side chain conformations of amino acids, when given channel is transformed. The suggested algorithm implements a protein molecule with flexible side chains based on the flexibility of amino acids, and extracts adjacent amino acids that affect the formation of the channel. We detect the collision between adjacent amino acids and neighbors, in order to exclude invalid side chain conformations. Then, we construct the rotation angle combination tree to choose valid side chain conformations.
