Link quality assessment is a crucial part of sensor network formation to stably operate large-scale wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A stability of path consisting of several nodes strongly depends on all link quality between pair of consecutive nodes. Thus it is very important to assess the link quality on the stage of building a routing path. In this paper, we present a link quality assessment method, Hybrid Link Quality Metric (HQLM), which uses both of LQI and RSSI from RF chip of sensor nodes to minimize set-up time and energy consumption for network formation. The HQLM not only reduces the time and energy consumption, but also provides complementary cooperation of LQI and RSSI. In order to evaluate the validity and efficiency of the proposed method, we measure PDR (Packet Delivery Rate) by exchanging multiple messages and then, compare PDR to the result of HQLM for evaluation. From the research being carried out, we can conclude that the HQLM performs better than either LQI- or RSSI-based metric in terms of recall, precision, and matching on link quality.

Recently, the importance of research and development for technological innovation is increasing. The rapid development of research and development has a number of positive effects, but at the same time there are also negative effects that accelerate crimes of information and technology leakage. In this study, a research security level measurement model was developed that can safely protect the R&D environment conducted at the organizational level in order to prepare for the increasingly serious R&D result leakage accident. First, by analyzing and synthesizing security policies related to domestic and overseas R&D, 10 research security level evaluation items (Research Security Promotion System, Research Facility and Equipment Security, Electronic Information Security, Major Research Information Security Management, Research Note Security Management, Patent/Intellectual Property Security Management, Technology Commercialization Security Management, Internal Researcher Security Management, Authorized Third Party Researcher Security Management, External Researcher Security Management) were derived through expert interviews. Next, the research security level evaluation model was designed so that the derived research security level evaluation items can be applied to the organization's research and development environment from a multidimensional perspective. Finally, the validity of the model was verified, and the level of research security was evaluated by applying a pilot target to the organizations that actually conduct R&D. The research security level evaluation model developed in this study is expected to be useful for appropriately measuring the security level of organizations and projects that are actually conducting R&D. It is believed that it will be helpful in establishing a research security system and preparing security management measures. In addition, it is expected that stable and effective results of R&D investments can be achieved by safely carrying out R&D at the project level as well as improving the security of the organization performing R&D.

EIS (Electro interstitial scan) is a non-invasive and simple method to find the physio-pathological information inferred by electric current response with respect to low direct current applied between remote sites of the body. Although a few EIS-based devices for diagnosing diabetes were commercialized, they were not successful in offering clinical validity nor in confirming diagnostic principle. In this study, we measured the voltage responses of diabetic patients and normal subjects with a commercialized EIS device to test the usefulness of EIS in screening diabetes. For this purpose, voltage was measured between pairs of electrodes contacted at both palm, both soles of the feet and left and right forehead above both eyes. After feature extraction of voltage signals, the AUC (area under the curve) between the two groups was calculated and we found that seven variables were appropriately shown above 60% of accuracy. In addition, we applied the k-NN (k-nearest neighbors) method and found that the accuracy of classification between the two groups reached the accuracy of 76.2%. This result implies that the voltage response analysis based on EIS has potential as a diabetics screening method.

Recently innovation cluster has been emphasized as a valid policy measure for innovation. For suggesting a new model of innovation cluster, we conducted literature review for the theories of regional innovation system(RIS) and innovation clusters. As a result, the success factors of innovation cluster were classified into system measures, physical measures, and social(human resources) measures from the perspective of RIS. The case of Gyeonggi province's innovation cluster policy was examined for an empirical analysis. For an in-depth analysis, a survey for the tenant companies in Pangyo technovalley(PTV) was conducted. As a result, it was found that Gyeonggi province's innovation cluster policy is evolving from 'a government-initiated system' to 'the 3rd-generation convergence RIS' and that PTV is closely related to the system measures of 'support for up-to-date management and technology information' and 'support for academic-research-industry cooperative research and technological cooperation,' physical measures of 'strengthening the function of PTV support division' and 'shared research equipment and other infrastructures,' and social measures of 'legal, financial, and administrative support system' and 'public childcare facilities'. Also, technology sector was divided into IT and non-IT for a validity check to find out that there was no significant difference in all factors, except for the public relations factors. This study is expected to provide resources for other related researches.
