P2P systems have gained a lot of research interests and popularity over the years and have the capability to unleash and distribute awesome amounts of computing power, storage and bandwidths currently languishing - often underutilized - within corporate enterprises and every Internet connected home in the world. Since there is no central control over resources or devices and no before hand information about the resources or devices, device discovery remains a substantial problem in P2P environment. In this paper, we cover some of the current solutions to this problem and then propose our feed forward neural network (FFNN) based solution for device discovery in mobile P2P environment. We implements feed forward neural network (FFNN) trained with back propagation (BP) algorithm for device discovery and show, how large computation task can be distributed among such devices using agent technology. It also shows the possibility to use our architecture in home networking where devices have less storage capacity.

The purpose of this study was to examine the possibility of application of American cohousing concepts for the development of apartment housing in Korea. The fieldwork included two American cohousing communities of 37 households, extensive interviews, questionnaire, and evaluation of site planning and development process. This paper looked at the real and potential benefits of cohousing in respect of land-use efficiency, resource usage, and the quality of social relationship within the residents. The paper suggests that the abstract notion of a sense of community and concrete issues of housing form are inseparably connected. The paper goes on to suggest that the educational program and the support from the government also are needed for the development of sustainable community.

Recently, with the spread of digital camera and PC cam, need of tools for display and manipulation of digital images have increased remarkably. These tools are called as digital album. Af now, people want to see picture not alone in home but share with someone else. The purpose of this study is to develop a digital album, which is easy to use, easy to approach and has more function. Therefore people can see picture everywhere he want and management it. If computer is connected In Internet.

Development of digital technology has become closely connected with housing environment. Especially for the matured population, it is very important because they need substantial support in their daily lives. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to identify needs of digital network services for future housing development. Previous researches were limited to digital technology of network systems and its usages. On the other hand, this study focuses on not only the technology but services. This study consists of literatures review and empirical survey. The subjects were the mid-age and pre-elderly between 45 to 65. The analysis of this study results outlined as follows: First, the pre-elderly appeared to have, in general, positive perceptions about digital services of the housing environment. The results of needs for each space's, showed strongly in basic safety and aiding system for memories. Second, there are differences in needs according to respondent's characteristics such as sex, income, job, house type, experience in digital system. Third, there are differences between what they think and what they really responded in both spaces and services. It menas that present planning elements may not attractive and suitable to residents. Therefore it is necessary to redesign the services. In the future, the most important thing is, making comfortable space not convenient space. That is, excluding unnecessary elements and pick up the right ones for resident's real demands.

Though there are high needs for the development of elderly house in rural area, there is not carried out at all. So, the purpose of this study is to provide the criteria to develop the architectural mode of elderly elderly house in rural area. The facts found in this study can be summarized as follows ; The elderly house in rural area. is increasingly being located near town. This is derived from the fact that the brand-new generation of the aged has the great likelihood to participate in social activities. So, Paid Elderly Home needs to be developed in town or suburbs. Medical facilities are indispensable in elderly house in rural area. So it is necessary that elderly house in rural area is closely connected with hospital and medical treatments. Inmates want small-sized rooms, thus one room shaped home should be built for these demands. And the flexibility of the spaces which can make two units into one should be applied to the plan and the design of the elderly house in rural area. The Home's medical facilities should be planned by considering the relationship with the Hospital. Factors for architectural planning of elderly house in rural area is movement pattern, safety facilities, and preferred subsidiary facilities through considering the physical and psychological characteristics.

The use of IoT (Internet of Things) is rapidly expanding to enhance the quality of life as seen in the interconnection between mobile devices and Web. This paper proposes an embedded system that connects sensors and mobile devices via IoT technology, improving the user's ability and service experience to remotely control the home appliances with mobile-detection features. Home appliances are expected to increase labor efficiency by utilizing the embedded system connected to the sensors. Using mobile applications to control home appliances remotely and to monitor operation status advances the user's knowledge, experience, and perspectives to experience refined life qualities.

Recently most of the study about home-networking middleware take the way of web-control through the internet. Although the way of control using wire and PDA also be taken, but does not use standard techniques like UPnP and is limited in the technique controlling simple device. This paper is about the development of a Voice Gateway controlling many kinds of UPnP controlling devices connected to network. voice gateway is consisted of MPC850 module and phone interface and the set-top box, a part of computer in voice gateway is consisted of PSTN interface, information controlling process and the process of UPnP protocol. And I tried to implement this through entire system board.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare between performance and requirements of visiting nursing care in long-term care insurance using the OMAHA system. Methods: The subjects were 72 nurses who had worked in a visiting nursing care center in long-term care insurance. Data were collected from December 5, 2016 to January 31, 2017 using self-recorded questionnaires. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests. Results: Four dimensions of the OMAHA system showed statistically significant differences between performance and requirements of visiting nursing care in long-term care insurance. The requirements of visiting nursing care were higher than was performance on all 40 items of the OMAHA system. The greatest difference was in environmental domain and then the psychosocial domain. Conclusion: Based on the results, we found that the environmental and psychosocial domains were the largest gap areas. Therefore, with the reality of elderly people living alone and the increase in elderly couples, active intervention connected with the community is needed in residential areas. Further, we suggest that the OMAHA system can be utilized as an integrated conceptual framework for developing and enhancing visiting nursing care in long-term care insurance.

This paper describes a wearable electro-stethoscope module for home-healthcare system. The module is consisted of a microphone, an instrumentation amplifier, a filter, a power amplifier etc. and is light and small. The phonogram signal from the module shows good performance. The test for the material and size of the sound collector of the chest piece is performed and the results is reflected on the prototype product. If the module is connected to wired or wireless communication network, so people can check their health without going hospital.
