In this paper, we present the diagnosis system for swallowing disorder. There are some types of diagnosis device for swallowing disorder, for example, the video fluoroscopy, the nuclear medicine inspection, the endoscopy, EMG and motion analysis. But these systems need heavy devices or have dangerous nuclear exposure, so are uncomfortable for handicapped person. Our system has advantages of simplicity, accuracy and quantitative analysis. In addition to the diagnosis aspect, this system can be used to biofeedback treatment.

Recently, the attention to the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution has been increasing. In the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution era, the boundaries between physical space, digital space, and biological space are becoming blurred because of the active convergence between various fields. There are many issues about the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution such as artificial intelligence, Internet of things, big data, and cyber physical system. To cope with the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution, an accurate analysis and technology planning need to be undertaken from a broad point of view. However, there is little research on the analysis of the major issues about the 4th Industrial Revolution. Accordingly, this study aims to analyse these major issues. Data mining such as topic modelling method is used for this analysis. This study is expected to be helpful for the researcher and policy maker of the 4th Industrial Revolution.

Synchronous computing models provided by real-time synchrony protocols, such as TTA [1] and PALS [2], greatly simplify the design, implementation, and verification of real-time distributed systems. However, their application to real systems has been limited since their assumptions on underlying systems are hard to satisfy. In particular, most previous real-time synchrony protocols hypothesize the existence of underlying fault tolerant real-time networks. This, however, might not be true in most soft real-time applications. In this paper, we propose a practical approach to a synchrony protocol, called Quality-Aware PALS (qPALS), which provides the benefits of a synchronous computing model in environments where no fault-tolerant real-time network is available. qPALS supports two flexible global synchronization protocols: one tailored for the performance and the other for the correctness of synchronization. Hence, applications can make a negotiation flexibly between performance and correctness. In qPALS, the Quality-of-Service (QoS) on synchronization and consistency is specified in a probabilistic manner, and the specified QoS is supported under dynamic and unpredictable network environments via a control-theoretic approach. Our simulation results show that qPALS supports highly reliable synchronization for critical events while still supporting the efficiency and performance even when the underlying network is not stable.

LVC(Live Virtual Constructive) 통합 훈련 체계는 대표적인 가상물리시스템 중 하나이다. LVC 훈련 체계를 구성하는 각 L,V,C 체계들은 서로 다른 시간 도메인, 해상도 및 동작 방식을 갖는다. 이에 각 체계의 이종 미들웨어들을 공통의 통신 미들웨어로서 통합하고, 연동 gateway (GW)를 이용하여 이종 체계를 연동하는 방안 연구는 매우 중요하다. 특히, LVC체계는 서로 다른 시간 도메인을 사용하고 있기 때문에 다른 체계 간 이벤트들의 인과성 보장과 시간 동기화에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 LVC 훈련체계의 통합 미들웨어로서 L 체계의 실시간 통신 미들웨어인 OMG DDS(Data Distribution Service)를 기반으로 HLA(High Level Architecture)/RTI(Run Time Infrastructure)기반의 시뮬레이션 시간을 사용하는 V, C 체계와 시간 차원에서 연동하는 방안을 제시한다. 본 논문에서는 HLA의 Time management 기능과 Clock Federate를 기반으로 DDS와 HLA 각각의 통신 개체인 파티서펀트(Participant)와 페더레이트(Federate)간 인과성을 유지하는 정밀한 시간 동기화 기법을 제안한다. 더불어, 각 미들웨어 상에서 실제 응용을 개발하여 제안한 방식에 의해 이종 체계 간 시간 제어 및 동기화가 이루어짐을 검증한다.

2001년 9/11 테러공격 이후에 미국은 사이버 안보를 가장 위중한 국가안보 문제로 인식한다. 미국 국방부는 2013년 처음으로 사이버 전쟁이 물리적인 테러보다 더 큰 국가안보 위협임을 확인했다. 단적으로 윌리암 린(William J. Lynn) 국방부 차관의 지적처럼 오늘날 사이버 공간은 육지, 바다, 하늘, 우주 다음의 '제5의 전장(the fifth domain of warfare)'이라고 함에 의문이 없다. 인터넷의 활용과 급속한 보급은 사이버 공간에서의 상상하지 못했던 역기능을 창출한 것이다. 이에 사이버 정보와 사이버 네트워크 보호까지를 포괄하지 않으면 국가안보 수호의 목표를 달성할 수 없게 되었다. 그런데 이러한 위험성에도 불구하고 각국은 운영상의 효율성과 편리성, 국제교류 등 외부세계와의 교류확대를 위해 국가기간망의 네트워크화를 더욱 확대해 가고 있고 인터넷에의 의존도는 심화되고 있다. 하지만 그 실천적인 위험성에도 불구하고 우리의 법제도적 장치와 사이버 안전에 대한 인식수준은 현실을 제대로 반영하지 못하고 있는 것으로 판단된다. 오늘날 가장 실천적이고 현실적인 위협을 제기하는 사이버 안보의 핵심은 하나도 둘도 계획의 구체성과 실천력의 배양이다. 대책회의나 교육 등은 부차적이다. 실전적인 사이버 사령부와 사이버 정보기구 그리고 사이버 전사의 창설과 육성에 더 커다란 노력을 경주해야 하고, 우리의 경우에는 가장 많은 경험을 가지고 인력과 장비를 가진 국가정보원의 사이버 수호 역량을 고양하고 더 많은 책무를 부담시키고 합리적인 업무 감독을 다하는 것에 있다고 할 것이다. 이에 본고는 법규범적으로 치안질서와 별개 개념으로서의 국가안보에 대한 무한책임기구인 국가정보기구의 사이버 안보에 대한 책무와 그에 더하여 필요한 사이버 정보활동과 유관활동의 범위를 검토하고자 한다. 사이버 테러와 사이버 공격을 포괄한 사이버 공격(Cyber Attack)에 대한 이해와 전자기장을 물리적으로 장악하는 전자전에 대한 연구도 포함한다.

Real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) is a promising cyber-physical technique used in the experimental evaluation of civil infrastructure systems subject to dynamic loading. In RTHS, the response of a structural system is simulated by partitioning it into physical and numerical substructures, and coupling at the interface is achieved by enforcing equilibrium and compatibility in real-time. The choice of partitioning parameters will influence the overall success of the experiment. In addition, due to the dynamics of the transfer system, communication and computation delays, the feedback force signals are dependent on the system state subject to delay. Thus, the transfer system dynamics must be accommodated by appropriate actuator controllers. In light of this, guidelines should be established to facilitate successful RTHS and clearly specify: (i) the minimum requirements of the transfer system control, (ii) the minimum required sampling frequency, and (iii) the most effective ways to stabilize an unstable simulation due to the limitations of the available transfer system. The objective of this paper is to establish a stability switch criterion due to systematic experimental errors. The RTHS stability switch criterion will provide a basis for the partitioning and design of successful RTHS.

Korea Postal Service(KPS) nowadays lies in competitive environment with alternative business such as door-to-door delivery service. Customers began to complain about postal service quality and ask the government to reform a public firm through management innovation. But, Korea Postal Service has not met the break-even point between it's revenue and expenditure because the service is under the government system and cannot independently make major decisions on products, pricing, services, personnel management, financial policies and etc. The objective of this study is to provide marketing planners and practitioners with some guidelines when they establish marketing strategies and to help marketers on theories and practical instructions about postal service marketing when they interact with customers. I. A field survey on both customer satisfaction and internal staff satisfaction was conducted to get some ideas for the marketing strategy planning. II. Practical guidelines and instructions were made for marketers to communicate with customers in various areas such as pricing, product, service demand, marketing channel, promotion, and etc. III. Some suggestions on marketing policies for planners and mangers in the marketing strategy were described including personnel resource as well as physical resource. IV. Special issues on small packet market and direct mail market were discussed and some alternative solutions were proposed. V. Database marketing strategy was emphasized to get new business opportunities such as direct mail, and to provide differential services to customers as much as their contribution into the profitability for KPS. VI. Cyber Post Office should be constructed on Internet to provide new services which are combined with physical material flow and information technologies.

The fault-tolerance routing problem is one of the most important issues in the application of the Internet of Things, and has been attracting growing research interests. In order to maintain the communication paths from source sensors to the macronodes, we present a hybrid routing scheme and model, in which alternate paths are created once the previous routing is broken. Then, we propose an improved efficient and intelligent fault-tolerance algorithm (IEIFTA) to provide the fast routing recovery and reconstruct the network topology for path failure in the Internet of Things. In the IEIFTA, mutation direction of the particle is determined by multi-swarm evolution equation, and its diversity is improved by the immune mechanism, which can improve the ability of global search and improve the converging rate of the algorithm. The simulation results indicate that the IEIFTA-based fault-tolerance algorithm outperforms the EARQ algorithm and the SPSOA algorithm due to its ability of fast routing recovery mechanism and prolonging the lifetime of the Internet of Things.

A new paradigm based on distributed manufacturing services is emerging. This paradigm shift can be realized by smart functions and smart technologies such as Cyber Physical System (CPS), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Cloud Computing. Most architectures define stack levels from Level 0 (equipment) to Level 4 (business area) and specify the services to be provided between them. Because of their a rough technical specification, there is a limitation on how to actually utilize a technology to actually implement a smart factory service with this architecture. In this paper, we propose a smart factory architecture that can be utilized directly from the perspective of a smart service system by making the use of System Engineering Process and System Modeling Language (SysML).
