The entry of an aging society require a safety of senior citizens against emergency. However, a home and a residence of senior citizens should not consider a characteristic of safety and the unfortunate accidents could happen in the house or the residence. Especially if the elders live alone then they have a help function using a call button in a bathroom or a closed area. But, a sliding or an overbalance in a bathroom or a closed area of a home may happen suddenly how can require a help in real time. That is a very serious accident to senior citizens. In this paper, we developed the context-aware system using the various sensors for collecting the data which is an activities of daily living of elders and we designed the recognition method using case-based reasoning for detecting the anomaly and the emergency context in the bathroom or the closed area in house. After that, if the anomaly or the emergency are detected then it call to a family or a relative or an administration in real-time.

Though, thanks to NPKI(National Public Key Infrastructure), the Korean secure Internet transaction environment has been rapidly grown in the last decade, it also faces with several problems, which need to be solved in near future, mainly resulted from the lack of openness and compatability of the NPKI-based environment which is operating in a closed way. It is believed that those problems of the NPKI can be solved when it is implemented to be based on the SSL/TLS, an international standard for web-based secure Internet transactions. The transition to the SSL/TLS-based NPKI needs to be performed so that the advantages of current NPKI are well maintained. The purpose of this paper is to comparatively analyze the NPKI and the SSL/TLS so as to give basic idea of implementing the current NPKI to be based on the SSL/TLS. The analysis will show not only how the SSL/TLS-based NPKI can improve current NPKI but also how the advantages of current NPKI can be maintained by the SSL/TLS-based NPKI.

A variety of diagnostic means for evaluating the hearing ability of neonates and infants have been studied so far, and some physical responses of neonates and infants to loud sound is still of much value. The author studied some normal responses of 100 neonates (male 54, female 46) in our neonatal room from Jan, 1977 to April, 1977. We took 90dB pure tone at 3, 000Hz by Beltone Audiometer model l0D (ANSI 1969) for a stimulus. The results are as follows: 1. The range of the examinees' age is between 2 and 3.5 hours (average 2.4 hours), and auropalpebral response is in 39% (eyelid blinking 10%, eyelid widening 29%), Moro reflex in 35%, sucking response in 14%, cessation of movement in 6%, head turning response in 2%, and no response in 4%. 2. The duration of response is between 2 and 5 Seconds (average 3.3 seconds).

This paper deals with acoustic echo cancellation using blind signal separation method. This method does not degrade the echo cancellation performance even during double-talk. In the closed echo environment, the mixing model of acoustic signals is multi-channel, so the convolutive blind signal separation method is applied and the mixing coefficients are calculated by using the feedback model without directly calculating the separation coefficients for signal separation. The coefficient update is performed by iterative calculations based on the second-order statistical properties, thus estimates the near-end speech. A number of simulations have been performed to verify the performance of the proposed blind signal separation method. The simulation results show that the acoustic echo canceller using this method operates safely regardless of the presence of double-talk, and the PESQ is improved by 0.6 point compared with the general adaptive FIR filter structure.

The VPN(Virtual Private Network) is a private network constructed logically on a public network infrastructure. There have been numerous studies to support the VPN services by using different technologies such as IP in IP, GRE, L2TP, MPLS and so on. Among these technologies, MPLS has shown many merits in aspects of QoS, security, and management, compared with other technologies. As an enhancement of the VPN that is controlled by MPLS PE(Provider Edge) routers, this paper presents the VPN controlled by MPLS CE(Customer Edge) routers. The functional architecture of the CE based VPN and operations of the CE routers are described along with the performance comparison of CE based MPLS VPN. It has been shown that the CE based VPN has more advantages than PE based VPN with respect to independency, scalability, security, and complexity.

EMRCA(Explicit Max_min Rate Control Algorithm) switch, which has been proposed in the ATM(Asychronous Transfer Mode) standard, controls the ABR(Available Bit Rate) service traffic in the ATM networks. The ABR service class of ATM networks uses a feedback control mechanism to adapt to varying link capacities. The VS/VD(Virtual Source/Virtual Destination) technique offers the possibility to segment the otherwise end-to-end ABR control loop into separate loops. The improved feedback delay and the control of ABR traffic inside closed segments provide a better performance and QoS(Quality of Service) for ABR connections with respect to throughput, delay, and jitter. This paper is study of an ABR VS/VD flow control method. Linear control theory offers the means to derive correct choices of parameters and to assess performance issues, like stability of the system, during the design phase. The performance goals are a high link utilization, fair bandwidth distribution and robust operation in various environments, which are verified by discrete event simulations. The major contribution of this work is the use of linear control theory to model and design an ABR flow control method tailored for the special layout of a VS/VD switch, the simulation shows that this techniques better than conventional method.

Due to the rapid development of construction technology with effective land utilization in this nation, many tunnels were and are being built across the country. However, the smoke and the heat generated from tunnel fire are the most important critical factors which may results in both massive personal injury and property damage, especially, due to the closed surrounding of the tunnel. Considering this particular nature of the tunnels, this study aims to install a fire detection system using an optic fiber cable to measure the temperature changes, compare, and analyze the resulted values with the times of temperature changes of the sensor by performing fire simulations under the same condition as a real fire test. From the results, it has been found that the temperature sensor detects a fire occurrence and generates an alarm within one minute after ignition for both a real fire test and a fire simulation alike, and also that the characteristics of temperature changes of the sensor has close relations with the speeds of the currents inside the tunnel. In addition, considering the tunnel fires can affect the evacuation efficiency and the fire extinguishing activities of the fire brigade inside the tunnel, the temperature sensor must be able to search and find the locations and directions of the fires correctly.

Livestock behavioral analysis is a factor that has a great influence on livestock health management and agricultural productivity increase. However, most digital devices introduced for behavioral analysis of livestock do not provide raw data and also provide limited analysis results. Such a closed system makes it more difficult to integrate data and build big data, which are essential for the introduction of advanced IT technologies. Therefore, it is necessary to supply farm-scale data collection devices that can be easily used at low cost. This study presents a data collection system for analyzing the behavior of livestock. The system consists of a number of miniature computing units that operate wirelessly, and collects livestock body temperature and acceleration data, location information, and livestock environment data. In addition, this study presents an algorithm for estimating the behavior of livestock based on the collected acceleration data. For the experiment, a system was built in a Korean cattle farm in Icheon, Gyeonggi-do, and data were collected for 20 Korean cattle, and based on this, the empirical and analysis results were presented.

This paper relates to the blind noise separation method of time-delayed convolutive mixed signals. Since the mixed model of acoustic signals in a closed space is multi-channel, a convolutive blind signal separation method is applied and time-delayed data samples of the two microphone input signals is used. For signal separation, the mixing coefficient is calculated using an inverse model rather than directly calculating the separation coefficient, and the coefficient update is performed by repeated calculations based on secondary statistical properties to estimate the speech signal. Many simulations were performed to verify the performance of the proposed blind signal separation. As a result of the simulation, noise separation using this method operates safely regardless of convolutive mixing, and PESQ is improved by 0.3 points compared to the general adaptive FIR filter structure.
