  • A 3D point cloud map is an essential elements in various fields, including precise autonomous navigation system. However, generating a 3D point cloud map using a single sensor has limitations due to the price of expensive sensor. In order to solve this problem, we propose a precise 3D mapping system using low-cost sensor fusion. Generating a point cloud map requires the process of estimating the current position and attitude, and describing the surrounding environment. In this paper, we utilized a commercial visual-inertial odometry sensor to estimate the current position and attitude states. Based on the state value, the 2D LiDAR measurement values describe the surrounding environment to create a point cloud map. To analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm, we compared the performance of the proposed algorithm and the 3D LiDAR-based SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) algorithm. As a result, it was confirmed that a precise 3D point cloud map can be generated with the low-cost sensor fusion system proposed in this paper.

  • In this paper, an extended Cloud analysis method is developed for seismic fragility assessment of existing highway bridges in the southeast Queensland region. This method extends the original Cloud analysis dataset by performing scaled Cloud analyses. The original and scaled Cloud datasets are then paired to generate seismic fragility curves. The seismic hazard in this region is critically reviewed, and the ground motion records are selected for the time-history analysis based on various record selection criteria. A parametric highway bridge model is developed in the OpenSees analysis software, and a sampling technique is employed to quantify the uncertainties of highway bridges ubiquitous in this region. Technical recommendations are also given for the seismic performance evaluation of highway bridges in such low-to-moderate seismic zones. Finally, a probabilistic fragility study is conducted by performing a total of 8000 time-history analyses and representative bridge fragility curves are generated. It is illustrated that the seismic fragility curves generated by the proposed extended Cloud analysis method are in close agreement with those which are obtained by the rigorous incremental dynamic analysis method. Also, it reveals that more than 50% of highway bridges existing in southeast Queensland will be damaged subject to a peak ground acceleration of 0.14 g.

  • This paper proposes a cloud system model for incorporating the existing Records Management System (RMS), Archives Management System (AMS), and Central Archives Management System (CAMS) into a cloud-based national records management system. To do this, research on concrete and stepwise ways to transform AMS, including CAMS, into a cloud computing environment was carried out. This study developed a cloud system design strategy and goal model to integrate national records-related systems into a single cloud system to share and utilize information resources, manage them efficiently, and reduce costs. In particular, this study analyzed technical security and operational security that are exposed in the cloud environment and suggested measures to solve them. As a result, cloud computing technology can be applied to achieve low-cost and high-efficiency effects.

  • Cloud computing service is a next generation IT service which has pay-per-use billing model and supports elastically provisioning IT infra according to user demand. However it has many potential threats originating from outsourcing/supporting service structure that customers 'outsource' their own data and provider 'supports' infra, platform, application services, the complexity of applied technology, resource sharing and compliance with a law, etc. In activation of Cloud service, we need objective assessment standard to ensure safety and reliability which is one of the biggest obstacles to adopt cloud service. So far information security management system has been used as a security standard for a security management and IT operation within an organization. As for Cloud computing service it needs new security management and assessment different from those of the existing in-house IT environment. In this paper, to make a Information Security Management System considering cloud characteristics key components from threat management system are drawn and all control domain of existing information security management system as a control components are included. Especially we designed service security management to support service usage in an on-line self service environment and service contract and business status.

  • In the centralized cloud controlled environment, the decision-making and monitoring play crucial role where in the host controller (HC) manages the resources across hosts in data center (DC). HC does virtual machine (VM) and physical hosts management. The VM management includes VM creation, monitoring, and migration. If HC down, the services hosted by various hosts in DC can't be accessed outside the DC. Decentralized VM management avoids centralized failure by considering one of the hosts from DC as HC that helps in maintaining DC in running state. Each host in DC has many VM's with the threshold limit beyond which it can't provide service. To maintain threshold, the host's in DC does VM migration across various hosts. The data in migration is in the form of plaintext, the intruder can analyze packet movement and can control hosts traffic. The incorporation of security mechanism on hosts in DC helps protecting data in migration. This paper discusses an approach for dynamic HC selection, VM selection and secure VM migration over cloud environment.

  • In the IoT(Internet of Things) environment, methods that user can access sensor node directly to collect sensing data or manage sensor in a gateway have a limitations. To solve this problem, cloud based sensor network architectures are proposed. In this paper, we proposed CoAP based IoT architecture that a lightweight gateway is used for data gathering instead of using a heavy traditional one and users can request sensing data through IoT applications running in the cloud environment and analyze signaling message cost. By doing so, our system can reduce message cost compared to the traditional gateway based system.

  • AVHRR(Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) on NOAA satellite provides data in five spectral, one in visible range, one in near infrared and three in thermal range. In this paper, application of NOAA/AVHRR data is studied for environment monitoring such as cloud top temperature, surface temperature, albedo, sea surface temperature, vegetation index, forest fire, flood, snow cover and so on. The analyses for cloud top temperature, surface temperature, albedo, sea surface temperature, vegetation index and forest fire showed reasonable agreement. But monitoring for flood and snow cover was uneasy due to the limitations such as cloud contamination, low spatial resolution. So this research had only simple purpose to identify well-defined waterbody for dynamic monitoring of flood. Based on development of these basic algorithms, we have a plan to further reseach for environment monitoring using AVHRR data.

  • Modern cloud computing is rapidly changing from traditional hypervisor-based virtual machines to container-based cloud-native environments. Due to limitations in I/O performance required for both virtual machines and containers, the use of high-speed storage (SSD, NVMe, etc.) is increasing, and in-memory computing using main memory is also emerging. Running a virtual environment on main memory gives better performance compared to other storage arrays. However, RAM used as main memory is expensive and due to its volatile characteristics, data is lost when the system goes down. Therefore, additional work is required to run the virtual environment in main memory. In this paper, we propose a hybrid in-memory storage that combines a block storage such as a high-speed SSD with main memory to safely operate virtual machines and containers on main memory. In addition, the proposed storage showed 6 times faster write speed and 42 times faster read operation compared to regular disks for virtual machines, and showed the average 12% improvement of container's performance tests.
