According to the E-Government Readiness Index announced by UN in 2012, the Republic of Korea ranked top again following the last time. However, according to the national competitiveness index announced by IMD, that of the Republic of Korea has still ranked in the world's top 20 for three successive years. In particular, the area of government efficiency took the 25th place in 2012, descending three steps compared to that in 2011, and the area of infrastructure related to informatization has been ranking 20th for three years. This phenomenon can prove that the Republic of Korea's informatization is not producing good outcome, and the investment in informatization is not creating good effects. This phenomenon was analyzed in terms of a life cycle of informatization in this study. As the result, it was revealed that structural problems remain in each step, the linking of information in each step is insufficient, reasonable trace management is absent ,and information management depending on systematic plan is lacking. To solve these problems, improvement measures through architecture consideration were suggested.

Many kinds of carbon emission monitoring systems or integrated systems have been developed so far. However, despite of the development of related techniques, they tend to be lack of statistic processing functions for feedback and policy-making data for users. In this study, a new CEMS (Carbon Emission Monitoring System) has been suggested and implemented in Sejong City, Korea. This system adapted automatic remote reading system from the site management agency as data hub to collect the electricity, gas and water usage of each household. The CEMS is consisted of 6 parts; carbon emission measurement, carbon emission standard setup and management, statistic analysis and the incentives. CEMS is distinguished with other systems for its UIs for users and the administrators. Also, data sharing with urban information system(UIS) of local government to produce information for users and policy-makers. This system makes it possible to investigate the change of energy consumption patterns, especially depending on the family structure and the housing characteristics. Furthermore, analyzing their correlation with carbon emission, it is expected to provide basic data used to establish urban environmental policies.

The importance of construction waste reusing and recycling is becoming increasingly large because the demolition industry is in current trend to pursue for sustainable growth. As the considering situation of the domestic housing construction and existing house, a scale of demolition industry is expected to be increased continuously. But the related cost regulations that are used in tendering in the demolition industry are insufficient, also the computer system for estimating the demolition costs have not been developed yet. Therefore, in this study suggests man-hours of 21EA items which are utilized to estimate demolition cost and work rate of $1.0m^3$ breaker which is used mostly in domestic demolition industry after analyzing a case study for deconstruction works. The computer system is developed for the estimating demolition cost easily, which are including five modules such as a project information, a unit cost management, a standard unit cost table, a bill of quantity, and a reporting system. This computer system is possible to apply for estimating cost of both mechanical demolition and blasting demolition. The biggest advantage of this system is to estimate cost to utilize standard WBS which is linked with standard unit table and each DB. This can help unskilled users use easily for it.
