In this paper, we propose two approaches for the character segmentation on Korean document images. One is an improved version of a projection profile-based algorithm. It involves estimating the number of characters, obtaining the split points and then searching for each character's boundary, and selecting the best segmentation result. The other is developed for low quality document images where adjacent characters are connected. In this case, parts of the projection profile are cut to resolve the connection between the characters. This is called ${\alpha}$-cut. Afterwards, the revised former segmentation procedure is conducted. The two approaches have been tested with 43,572 low-quality Korean word images punted in various font styles. The segmentation accuracies of the former and the latter are 91.81% and 99.57%, respectively. This result shows that the proposed algorithm using a ${\alpha}$-cut is effective for low-quality Korean document images.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a way to solve the excessive paperwork of safety managers in domestic construction sites, and to suggest a work efficiency plan that can shorten the time required to prevent safety accidents. First, a function to automatically generate a safety document and find the necessary data is applied using the RPA program. The second is document creation using mobile devices. After safety training, use the Moleil app to keep the training log. Third, to prevent omission of essential safety and health documents, the automatic warning function is activated according to the RPA submission time and sent to the person in charge by e-mail or text. Fourth, the function to find the latest data with high accuracy and speed through 'Google Cloud Search', a search function, was applied.

XML(eXtensible Markup Language)은 웹 상의 데이터를 표현하고, 교환하기 위한 표준 언어로써 XML 로 표현된 문서를 관계형 데이터베이스 관리시스템(RDBMS)에 저장하고 관리하는 기법에 대한 연구[1][2][3]가 활발히 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 연구들은 DTD(Document Type Definition)를 입력 받아 해당 DTD 에서 관계형 스키마를 추론하는 기법을 사용한다. 하지만, 기존의 연구들은 DTD 간소화 절차를 적용하기 때문에 DTD 내에서 추론될 수 있는 의미적인 부분들이 스키마 생성 시에 보존이 되지 못한다. 또한, 기존의 연구들은 XML 데이터의 내용(content)와 구조(structure) 정보만을 저장하는데 초점이 맞춰져 있기 때문에, XML 문서 저장 시 데이터의 무결성을 보장하기 위해 저장프로시져나 트리거를 이용해야 하는 번거로움이 생긴다. 본 논문에서는 [3]의 연구에서 제시한 Inlining 기법을 기반으로 기존의 Inlining 기법의 문제점인 DTD 에서 추론할 수 있는 의미적인 부분의 손실을 관계형 스키마로 보존하는 방법과 효율적인 릴레이션 생성을 위해 개선된 Inlining 기법을 제시한다.

Recently, owing to the increasing demand on the simplification of arrival and departure procedures, IMO's (International Maritime Organization) Facilitation Committee (FAL) is carrying out the standardization project of arrival and departure formalities and clearance form. Also, many port authorities of developed countries are making active researches for the smooth flow and efficiency of the information inbound and outbound ships by way of simplifying their formalities or through electronic means. However, this standardization project cannot be done by one country but by mutual cooperation among related nations. And to carry out this task, the first thing to be done is to standardize the formalities and document form, and to integrate information. To this end, this study has reviewed the model cases of advanced ports of developed countries with regard to their simplification and standardization efforts. And also we have analyzed the formalities and clearance form of the three countries Korea, China, and Japan. And then for the solution of common problems of three countries, this paper has suggested an ebXML-based Global Port B2B framework. Through this framework, we can reuse and automate the necessary information on the arrival and departure of ships, consequently realizing simplification, and laying a foundation for the introduction of e-commerce to the port industry.

XML is a standard language to express and exchange the data over the web. Recently, researches about techniques that storing XML documents into RDBMS and managing it have been progressed. These researches use a technique that are receiving the DTD document as an input and generate the relational schema from it. Existing researches, however, do not consider the semantic preservation because of the simplification of the DTD. Further, because existing studies only focus on the preservation technique to store information such as content and structure, there is a troublesomeness that have to use the stored-procedure or trigger for the data integrity during the stores of XML documents. This paper proposes a improved Inlining technique to create effective relations and to preserve semantics which can be inferred from DTD.

There has been fast progress in economy in Korea derived by a consecutive five-year plan program for economic development started in the early 1960's. In the field of transportation, rapid changes in the technological environment of transportation and communication have brought a revolution of the transport system, of which inter-modal transportation through containerisation is typical. Because of the rapidly growing traffic volumes of cargo, especially container traffic, and lack of investment into transport infrastructure in the past, both road and railway are beyond their capacity. As a result, the public-road network has suffered a serious congestion problem. For instance, in relation to the corridor between Seoul and Pusan, today, it takes about 14 hours for the journey of container trailer through Kyongbu Expressway, for which it used to take only 7 hours in 1986. For the railway, though the congestion problem is not very serious compared with the road sector, a shortage of capacity on certain main lines has emerged as a problem as railway traffic has increased. Furthermore, the further expansion of the system in near future is difficult due to burden of higher construction the cost. Unlike these two modes, coastal shipping, which has been paid relatively less attention for commodity transport in Korea, shows no constraint in this respect. In addition, it is the most cost efficient mode of transport. This work therefore aims to make a proposal for the alternative inland transportation mode, which is to promote the coastal transport of container. Three obstructing factors for the promotion of the coastal transport are investigated and some solutions for those are suggested as follows : First, it appears to be essential to provide exclusive ports for the coastal shipping, that comply with simplification, specialization and rationalization. The optimum size of berths on the exclusive ports in Pusan port is estimated as 16-20. We found that it needs periodical study and publicity on the advantages from the adoption of the coastal mode. Inducing competition in the coastal shipping market is also necessary. For the supply of the fleet in the coastal shipping, chartering of the surplus ships in the oversea shipping is found to be more desirable than new shipbuilding. Second, to solve the fragmentation of the companies which wish to participate in the coastal transport, government has to implement the subsidy policy. The encouragement of participation of the shipping lines engaging in Korea-Japan run and Korea-East South Asia run, into coastal shipping also needs to be considered cautiously. Third, simplification of the document for entry in ports is needed for rational coastal shipping management. We can use B/L (Bill of Lading) for coastal shipping as a prerequisite to get the indemnity by P & I Club. The reduction of the government controls on entering and leaving the ports also needs.

Paperless trade is a new trade paradigm that has innovated on traditional trade procedures, which relied on manual work in the past, and applied an IT-based e-document standard. To realize paperless trade in Korea, a lot of efforts have been made. Korea has overcome many difficulties, a lack of awareness, trials and errors, etc. at the initial introduction stage and strived to establish a stable infrastructure through the government's policy support and active cooperation with the trade business communities and related organizations. Now, Korea became a well-known leader in IT industry, especially in the paperless trade infrastructure and strategic policies. The one-stop trading system named 'uTradeHub' is operated by a paperless trade service provider, Korea Trade Network(KTNET). uTradeHub includes trade finance and settlement, customs clearance and export and import logistics, improving trading procedures and reducing related expenses. Private-Public joint efforts from Korean government and private sectors which have respectively fulfilled their role and function with market-oriented practical policies and strategies has lead Korea a world leading country in paperless trade. Moreover, Korea expended its efforts to the global areas. Korea has started to activate multi-national paperless trade alliances such as PAA(Pan-Asia e-Commerce Alliance), ASEAL(Asia Europe Alliance for Paperless Trading) as well as established the bilateral cooperative networks with China and Taiwan. The one-stop trading system, uTradeHub should keep close cooperations between nations since trade itself is implemented in a cross-border ways. In the near future, it is expected uTradeHub can achieve best results in the simplification of procedures and cost savings when an international linkage is completely established with international cooperations.
