Context-awareness techniques in ubiquitous computing environment provide various services to users who need to get information via the analysis of collected information from sensors in a spatial area. Context-awareness has been increased in ubiquitous computing and is applied to many different applications such as disaster management system, intelligent robot system, transportation management system, shopping management system, and digital home service. Many researches have recently focused on services that provide the appropriate information, which are collected from Internet by different kinds of sensors, to users according to context of their surrounding environment. In this paper, we propose an abstraction model to manage the large-scale contextual information and their metadata which are collected from different kinds of in-situ sensors in a spatial area and are presented them on the web. This model is composed of the modules expressing functional elements of sensors using sensorML(Sensor Model Language) based on XML language and the modules managing contextual information, which is transmitted from the sensors.

최근 국내외에서 모든 사물이 인터넷에 연결되는 초(超)연결혁명이 진행 중이며, 앞으로 사물인터넷 기반의 다양한 혁신과 사업기회가 창출될 것으로 전망되고 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 세계 최고 수준의 광대역 방송통신 인프라 및 IoT 기기 제조역량 등을 갖추고 있으나, 표준 기반의 개방형 IoT 플랫폼의 부재로 국내 기업의 시장 진입이 어려운 상황이다. 대기업은 개별적으로 플랫폼을 개발중이나 글로벌 시장에 대한 주도력이 부족하고, 중소기업은 플랫폼 부재로 시장진입이 어려워 향후 스마트 폰 산업에 이어 IoT 산업마저 글로벌 기업에 종속될 우려가 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 국내외 다양한 분야의 기업들이 참여하여 다양한 홈 IoT 제품과 서비스를 개발할 수 있도록 특정 플랫폼이나 솔루션에 제약 없이 다양한 IoT 기기를 연결, 제어가 가능한 표준 기반의 개방형 홈 IoT 서비스 제공 방안을 연구하였다. 실험 결과에서는 제안된 개방형 홈 IoT 플랫폼을 통해 Z-Wave, IP, ZigBee, IrDA 등 다양한 통신 방식을 사용하는 홈 IoT 기기를 제어하고 정보 수집하여 사용이 가능함을 보여주었고, 이를 기반으로 플랫폼을 빅데이터 기술 및 기계학습 기능을 추가적으로 고도화하면 다양한 사물로부터 수집된 정보와 방송 정보, 웹 정보 등을 융합한 서비스 제공 등 소비자 중심의 창의적인 신규 방송통신 융합서비스 제공이 가능할 것으로 기대가 된다.

In this paper, we deal with a new techno-economic modeling and analysis for optical access networks. In deploying the fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) architecture, network planner needs to consider the following techno-economic issues: when do we need to upgrade existing local access network to FTTH network? how much do we invest to maximize profit? In order to answer these techno-economic questions, we need to consider the impact of emerging technologies and business environment. Toward this end, we develop a new techno-economic modeling to deal with the inherent complexity of technology evolution and cost economics. In particular, the new modeling approach provides us with an techno-economic analysis of technology alternatives such as ethernet passive optical network (E-PON) and wavelength division multiplex passive optical network (WDM-PON). In this analysis, we focus on the impact of critical factors such as the cost characteristic of proposed architecture and digital subscriber line (DSL) subscriber's churn-in to FTTH service and churn-out. We develop mixed integer-programming models for finding the evolution path of local access networks to broadband network architectures.

QR codes, a kind of 2-dimensional barcode, is used to encode information such as simple URLs or namecards. QR codes can store much more information than a just barcode can do. Now QR code is very popular service in our ordinary life. These days many companies has used QR codes in the way of home-page link, especially a production explanation, the material instruction of model houses, the services in a library and on-line events, etc. This paper is going to make a study about how to establish a production process management on the basis of QR codes, addedly, about strong points of QR codes and the examples of using it.

In this paper, aim to suggest the medical information wireless transmission system to provide the mobility of medical service by means of wireless area network which makes it possible, home or at a long range, to check and oversee the state of patients, and to can out a simulation. The proposed method converts medical information to digital data in an emergency and sends them to mobile terminals such as PDAs to make possible swift first aid. The simulation took advantage of the OFDM transmission method based on IEEE 802.1la in order to send reliable medical information in mobile wireless channel environment, and analyzed the system performance by applying convolution encoding to transmit reliable information in AWGN and 3-ray mobile multipath fading channel environment.

The 3rd Library Comprehensive Development Plan (2019-2023) of the Committee on Library and Information Policy under IFLA-UN 2030 Agenda emphasize the role of libraries in practicing social inclusion. At home and abroad, this is shedding new light on libraries as the public service institutions aimed at resolving information inequality. This study thus developed the information inequality measurement indicator optimized for libraries. For this purpose, FGI and Delphi technique were implemented as the verification stage of the expert group. As a result, the final indicators were derived in three evaluation areas, twelve evaluation items, and 30 evaluation indicators. Specifically, first, 3 evaluation items and 8 evaluation indicators were derived in the access evaluation area; second, 5 evaluation items and 12 evaluation indicators were derived in the competency evaluation area; and third, 4 evaluation items and 10 evaluation indicators were derived in the utilization evaluation area. This study is considered to be of great significance in that the information inequality measurement indicators optimized for libraries were developed, the first of its kind.

The Internet of Things (IoT) interconnects every device by allowing them to communicate directly and share information with each other and has been recently applied to various industrial fields. The integration of home appliances with IoT has led to the creation of new markets by providing quick and better experience to consumers. Although IoT has been integrated into most modern day appliances, there have been few developments for kitchen appliances. This paper presents the development of integrating IoT with the blender, one of the most widely used appliance in the kitchen. A custom application was made to interact with the blender that provides three main functions: digital controller, maintenance, and defrosting alarm. The function of digital controller provides wireless control to the conventional blender. The maintenance function detects and alerts the user on blender reliability with the intent of enabling the anticipation of hardware failures. The defrost alarm alerts the user when the ingredient has reached the appropriate and desired temperature when cooking frozen food.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing elderly care burden of a working family. Methods: A descriptive correlational design was used. Participants was 153 family member of elderly at five nursing facilities. Data were collected through self-reported questionnaires from July to October 2019. Data were analyzed using an independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis with the SPSS WIN 25.0 program. Analysis result, explaining 20,8% of the variance, which indicated that subjects for giving care, monthly admission fee, burden of expenses, and satisfaction for fee service were significant predictors of working family's care burden. Various individual characteristics significantly influenced working family's care burden in aspects of emotional, social, economical, and physical burdens. Therefore, interventions to decrease working family's care burden must focus on their individual factors.

The IEEE 1394 protocol is a de facto standard in multimedia digital home network. It supports several advanced features such as hot plugging, dynamic network reconfiguration, isochronous transmission and so on. Since the IEEE 1394 was adapted in the field of multimedia service with QoS guarantee, back bone network protocol with reel-time digital instrumentation and control sub networks, and physical layer protocol for real-time middleware such as real-time CORBA, the additional real-time features has been required in device driver implementation because of the necessity of the predictability enhancement. To guarantee the real-time features, the device driver of the IEEE 1394 should support the priority based packet processing and also need a isochronous buffer management mechanism to deal with the periodic isochronous communication. In this paper, we proposed a new software architecture of the IEEE 1394 device driver for supporting the real-time characteristics such as priority based packet processing, priority based scheduling and so on.
