To run the algorithm for identifying the segments of a pipe network, the relative positional relation between nodes, pipes, and valves should be prepared as input information of a segment search algorithm. In order to more accurately identify the segments of real pipe network, pipe network GIS/CAD database that contains all isolation valves is more suitable than modeled pipe network information used for a hydraulic analysis program. In this study, we developed an algorithm that can establish the relative positional relations among node-pipe-valve suitable for pipe network segment search algorithms using GIS/CAD data of a real water supply network, and developed a MATLAB program that can implement it. The effectiveness of the developed MATLAB program was confirmed by applying it to a portion of a real municipal pipe network.

In the COVID-19 situation, digital textbooks have been used in many schools. In order for digital textbooks to become active even in the post COVID-19 era, the functions of digital textbooks must be improved. Digital textbooks are traditional book-type textbooks with glossaries, video materials, and evaluation questions added. Recently, they are being used usefully for practical education by providing realistic contents such as Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and 360 images. Therefore, in this study, in order to prepare for the post COVID-19, we found the functional problems of digital textbooks and suggested a way to improve them. First, the layout of digital textbooks should be developed as a responsive layout, deviating from the same form as a book-type textbook. Second, digital textbooks and learning management systems must be integrated. Third, by developing a digital textbook for teachers, teachers should be able to directly reorganize the contents or add external materials. Fourth, learning analysis should be possible using data recorded in digital textbooks. Fifth, in the 2022 revised curriculum, various subjects should be developed as digital textbooks.

Recently, with the development of mobile communication technologies such as 5G, interest in oscilloscope technology based on high bandwidth and user-friendly UI is increasing. In this paper, we proposed a Python-based UI(user interface) SW for a high-bandwidth digital oscilloscope in connection with the study of a 13GHz band digital oscilloscope system. The proposed UI SW is designed not only to be executed integrally with the oscilloscope, but also to be run on a separate PC or laptop cooperating with the instrument through WiFi communication. Functions of the UI SW consists of displaying and analyzing signal data, storing signal data in an external storage device, generating test signal data, and reconfiguring the toolbar. Finally, we have shown that the proposed digital oscilloscope system operates normally by interworking test with the signal generator.

Temporal bone CT, which is a high-resolution CT, uses a high tube voltage and a thin section thickness, so the scan dose is higher than that of adjacent areas. Accordingly, we applied changes to the reconstruction algorithm among the test conditions to find an algorithm with excellent sensitivity to lesions while reducing the test dose, and investigated its significance and the possibility of providing basic clinical data. As a result, when the tube voltage was lowered to 100 kVp and applied, the dose was reduced by about 35.6%, and when the definition algorithm was applied to the raw data acquired at 100 kVp, the SNR and CNR were excellent, and a statistically significant difference was shown when compared to other algorithms(p<0.05). And as a result of comparing structural similarity, the SSIM index was analyzed as 0.776, 0.813, and 0.741 for each ROI. Therefore, we believe that applying algorithm changes to temporal bone CT scans can partially reduce the dose generated from CT scans and are very meaningful in terms of basic clinical data.

Dynamic Software Update(DSU) is a technique, which updates a new version of the software to a running process without stopping. Many DSU systems that update C application programs are introduced. However, these DSU systems differ in implementation method or in main features. In this paper, we propose a new DSU system that can solve some disadvantages of existing DSU systems. DSU system presented in this paper splits existing program to code, global data and local data and then updates each part of the program considering the characteristics of the respective parts. The proposed system in this paper is implemented and tested on Linux. Also, we compared our DSU system with other DSU systems and we could find some strength of our DSU system. First, the code memory usage of our DSU system can be efficient since our system does not need to maintain code of an old version. Second, the global data memory waste is small because our system does not need to allocate the global data again which is not modified in the new version. Finally, we restore local data of old version in stack area of the new version using stack reconstruction technique. This paper is meaningful since we proposed a new DSU method and we implemented a full DSU system using the method.

In this paper, we propose MPI gridding algorithm of LiDAR data that minimizes the communication between the cores. The LiDAR data collected from aircraft is a 3D spatial information which is used in various applications. Since there are many cases where the LiDAR data has too high resolution than actually required or non-surface information is included in the data, filtering the raw LiDAR data is required. In order to use the filtered data, the interpolation using the data structure to search adjacent locations is conducted to reconstruct the data. Since the processing time of LiDAR data is directly proportional to the size of it, there have been many studies on the high performance parallel processing system using MPI. However, previously proposed methods in parallel approach possess possible performance degradations such as imbalanced data size among cores or communication overhead for resolving boundary condition inconsistency. We conduct empirical experiments to verify the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm. The results show that the total execution time of the proposed method decreased up to 4.2 times than that of the conventional method on heterogeneous clusters.

The 2015 Revised National Curriculum emphasizes software education to develop creative and convergent talents in preparation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Accordingly, it is necessary to develop competency-based training programs for informatics teachers in a rapidly changing educational environment. In this background, this study selects a framework to analyze the content of in-service training for informatics teachers through review of previous studies. By analyzing the current training programs to strengthen competencies required for informatics teachers in secondary schools, the study aims to develop implications for future in-service training programs. To this end, the study conducted a questionnaire survey of experts who participated in the development of in-service training textbooks and consulted them, then analyzed the elements of competency-based training program content and the relative importance of each competency element using the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). According to the results of the analysis, the content was relatively concentrated on the competency of "Understanding and Reconstructing the National Curriculum" required for general and informatics teachers as well, which accounted for 47% of all, or 7 hours out of the total 15 hours. In contrast, the content structure lacked the competency of highly relative importance by competency element "Establishing and Using Teaching-Learning Strategies for Informatics," which took up the highest portion of 27%. These findings will be used as basic data for understanding and reflecting the areas that fall short of the development of in-service training programs for informatics teachers.

In the Image processing and computer vision, the problem of reconstructing from one image to another or generating a new image has been steadily drawing attention as hardware advances. However, the problem of computer-generated images also continues to emerge when viewed with human eyes because it is not natural. Due to the recent active research in deep learning, image generating and improvement problem using it are also actively being studied, and among them, the network called Generative Adversarial Network(GAN) is doing well in the image generating. Various models of GAN have been presented since the proposed GAN, allowing for the generation of more natural images compared to the results of research in the image generating. Among them, pix2pix is a conditional GAN model, which is a general-purpose network that shows good performance in various datasets. pix2pix is based on U-Net, but there are many networks that show better performance among U-Net based networks. Therefore, in this study, images are generated by applying various networks to U-Net of pix2pix, and the results are compared and evaluated. The images generated through each network confirm that the pix2pix model with Attention, R2, and Attention-R2 networks shows better performance than the existing pix2pix model using U-Net, and check the limitations of the most powerful network. It is suggested as a future study.

This study aimed to analyze applying TAM model the process that flow factors such as 'harmony of challenge and technology' exert effects on learners' attitudes of keeping learning in STEAM class employing robots. For the study, the 'Energy and Tools' chapter of the science textbook for the 6th grade's second semester was re-arranged, and applied for 189 students, and among them, only the 174 usable data were used for the analysis. As a result of analysis, students' learning immersion factor(factor of harmony of challenge and technology) had deeper effects on the factor of ease of learning than usefulness of learning and this in turn, had an effect on their intention to keep learning ultimately through the factor of value of learning as the study found. As a result of research, it was found that for indications identified, in order to use robots in STEAM class, for the students' intention to keep learning, it's essential for learners to have proper and active attitudes towards learning and basic knowledge of robots, and aspects of values should be considered that based on this, robot can assist in learning and affect results of learning in STEAM class. On the other hand, the factors of ease of learning and the combination of the challenge and technology do not gives direct (+) effect on the intention to continue learning and the value for learning, respectively. However, each of the two factor has indirect influence on each of the dependent variable within the significant range, which is the reason the author includes the result of the analysis.
