This paper analyzes the existing transportation systems of Nigeria and Korea and proposes a new railway and roadway design for Nigerian cities. The research findings and feasibility study revealed that the state of Nigeria's transportation system was critical as was its market segment, infrastructural deficit and financial requirement needed to implement a smart transportation system. The dilapidation of the existing infrastructure coupled with poor maintenance culture and limited public transport services has hindered the economic growth of Nigeria and its cities. A case study of Korea and Japan shows some possible solutions to Nigeria transportation challenges. Analytical and descriptive methods were used to critically assess the infrastructural challenges, movement, and convenience. The study proposed the design of a new intercity railroad and roadway across Abuja, Enugu, Lagos and Port Harcourt cities. The proposed designs have been established to be an innovative solution with advanced benefits over the current system. The implementation of the proposed designs is estimated to cost about US$(77,832,027,719) across the study areas. Thus, the discussion, conclusion, and recommendations given present a proposal to the Nigerian government on the possibility of solving the Nigerian intercity railroad and roadway transportation challenges across Abuja, Enugu, Lagos and Port Harcourt cities through smart designs.

Since the 4th industrial revolution was thrown into the world at the Davos World Economic Forum in January 2016, the world has been undergoing major social and economic changes. In this study, the direction of quality management in the 4th industrial revolution era was examined. First, in all the major countries the industrial structural changes and smart business models were confirmed due to the convergence of new ICT such as IoT, robotics, 3D printing, big data, and AI with the existing technologies and industries. Second, we found that although the core technology level of the 4th industrial revolution in Korea is not as good as that of advanced countries, we have been working on expanding smart production methods and creating new industries by utilizing new ICT. Finally, it was confirmed that quality management is a real-time implementation of new ICT that reflects the needs of the market in real time based on big data from the planning and design stage of products or services.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the pre-service teachers' perception for education paradigm and teacher's teaching competency in the fourth industrial revolution era. For this study 53 pre-service teachers participated in the discussion instruction during one semester. The study result was to analyze the discussion reports of pre-service students using the grounded theory approach. As a result, the pre-service students responded that the school needs to change the learner-centered education and assessment method in the fourth industrial revolution era. Secondly, the result of the teachers' teaching competencies was the integrated curriculum reconstruction, information processing, empathy and understanding, creative teaching and instructional design, collaboration and communication. This study is expected to contribute to the change of education paradigm for pre-service teachers in the fourth industrial revolution era.

This paper aim to propose and suggest for government to reinvent and re-steering the policy on the 4th industrial revolution in Korea. To do it, this paper annalize the advanced country's policies and hard-data sets from many international research institutes. So this paper emphasized the concept and frame of socio-technical system approach by Geels. According to this approach, this paper can get a conclusion that Korea government has to focus on the roles to solve the big social dilemma with high-tech tools from the 4th industrial revolution. And this paper point out the necessary of increasing the diversity and multidisciplinary in 4th industrial revolution policy of Korean government. These findings of this paper recommend for Korea to redesigns the governance mechanism and legislation platform and to design the future readiness.

This study aims to analyze Next Production Revolution (NPR) technologies through evidence-based keyword network in order to cope with the change of production paradigm called the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). For the analysis, a total of 441 papers related to NPR or 4IR were extracted and the NPR technology network was constructed based on the simultaneous appearance relationship of the author keywords of these papers. Based on the NPR technology network, we explored key technologies through analysis of centrality and keyword group. As a result, technologies such as 'digital twin' and 'modeling and simulation', discovering insights by connecting the virtual and physical world in real time and reflecting them into design and process, are analyzed as key technologies.

Purpose: The world faces a great turning point fundamentally rebuilding the future, and human lives, by embracing the 4th industrial revolution era. This paper aims to seek new and various business models in the 4th industrial revolution era, and to examine the evolution of quality management in the changing of the industrial ecosystem. Methods: This paper examines the various strategies of approaching the 4th industrial revolution in Germany, the USA, Japan, China, and Korea. This paper also draws detailed items by classifying the six major items of Malcolm Baldridge into large, medium, and small scale classifications, researches items from the technical perspective by applied fields, and the four major factor perspectives of quality management, as well as analyzes the relevant items in a multidimensional method. After a questionnaire survey targeting 200 quality experts was conducted, the important quality management factors were selected by applying the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Results: The importance of the general criteria was analyzed in the order of customers, MAKM (measurement, analysis, and knowledge management), workforce, strategy, operations, and leadership. As for the importance analysis results of the secondary subcriteria, the following items are highly analyzed: senior leadership, searching business model's innovation opportunity, customer satisfaction improvement, big data utilization, systematic management of workforce, and, planning and design quality. Conclusion: In the era of the Internet of everything, when complexity increases, this study presented a quality management direction suitable for new business methods challenging existing orders by drawing on quality management priorities.

The purpose of this study is to propose the role of future designers and capabilities to be developed in the age of A.I. Active and preliminary designers should prepare themselves to develop necessary capabilities. As a method of study, we investigated the meaning of design and the changing role of designers from the past to present. Additional research was conducted on generative design, design processes, and A.I based design software. Finally, based on the analysis, we proposed the role of future designers and their capabilities in the age of A.I. In conclusion, the role of future designer should lead social innovation through creativity by coworking with artificial intelligence based on understanding and empathy for users. Based on this research, designers are expected to develop unique humanities skills such as empathy and creativity and work with AI in response to $4^{th}$ industrial revolution.

The history of design has been closely related with the development of technology. The digital revolution requires design to be as innovative and inventive as the Industrial Revolution had been. In the current society demanding innovation and a new role for design, a successful result can be obtained in the interrelationship between digital and physical environments. In this point of view, exhibition design as a part of space design has had the method of analogue virtual reality, which induces spectators' experiences by creating a virtual environment, as its main expression means before digital technology was introduced. This method was developed from plane images or models to picture techniques according to the development of media technology. Nowadays, the exhibition method introducing multimedia, which enables interactions, is being developed. The main purpose of this study is to identify the meaning and role of virtual space in the view of space design and to analyze its functional interaction. Through this, it attempts to actively promote organic integration and development of widely used cyber space and traditional space design.
