In recent years, numerous mega-sized and complex civil infrastructures are being constructed all over the world. Therefore, more precise construction and maintenance technologies are required for these complicated construction projects. Especially, exact strength measurement and curing process monitoring of the concrete structures are very crucial to confirm the safety and effectiveness of these complicated structures. In this paper, a new Quick Response (QR) code-based concrete strength labeling technique using embedded self-sensing monitoring system is introduced. It is important to note that the QR code-based concrete labeling technique enables easy access of the databases related to the concrete strength at anytime, anywhere, and any smart PC devices. Finally, by integrating the proposed QR code-based concrete labeling with the concrete strength databases already prepared at a designated web-server, a feasibility of the current system is investigated for a next generation concrete life-cycle quality maintenance.

Numerous train operating companies provide training by means of driving simulators. A detailed analysis in the course of the rail research project 2TRAIN has shown that the simulation technology, the purposes of training and the overall concept of simulator-based training are rather diverse (Schmitz & Maag, 2008). A joint factor however are weak assessment capabilities and the fact that the simulator training is often not embedded into the overall competence management. This fact hinders an optimal use of the simulators. Therefore, 2TRAIN aims at the development of enhanced training and assessment tools. Taking into account that several simulators are already in use, the focus lays on the extension of existing simulation technology instead of developing entirely new systems. This extension comprises (1) a common data simulation interface (CDSI), (2) a rule-based expert system (ExSys), (3) a virtual instructor (VI), and (4) an _assessment database (AssDB). The foundation of this technical development is an assessment concept (PERMA concept) that is based on performance markers. The first part of the paper presents this assessment concept and a process model for the two major steps of driver performance assessment, i.e. (1) the specification of exercise and assessment and (2) the assessment algorithm and execution of the assessment. The second part describes the rationale and the functionalities of the simulator add-on tools. Finally, recommendations for further technical improvement and appropriate usage are given. based on the results of a pilot study.

The exceptional development of electronic device technology, the miniaturization of mobile devices, and the development of telecommunication technology has made it possible to monitor human biometric data anywhere and anytime by using different types of wearable or embedded sensors. In daily life, mobile devices can collect wireless body area network (WBAN) data, and the co-collected location data is also important for disease analysis. In order to efficiently analyze WBAN data, including location information and support medical analysis services, we propose a geohash-based spatial index method for a location-aware WBAN data monitoring system on the NoSQL database system, which uses an R-tree-based global tree to organize the real-time location data of a patient and a B-tree-based local tree to manage historical data. This type of spatial index method is a support cloud-based location-aware WBAN data monitoring system. In order to evaluate the proposed method, we built a system that can support a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) and Binary JSON (BSON) document data on mobile gateway devices. The proposed spatial index method can efficiently process location-based queries for medical signal monitoring. In order to evaluate our index method, we simulated a small system on MongoDB with our proposed index method, which is a document-based NoSQL database system, and evaluated its performance.

Current mobile devices have surpassed its boundaries as a more communication tool to a smart device which provides additional features. These features have supported the smart life of its users, but have reached its limit from low-performance processors and short-battery time. These issues can be resolved b implementing higher performing hardware, but they come with a burden of high cost. This paper introduces a new way of managing computing resources in a mobile device by enhancing the quality of human-computer interaction. The real-speed felt by users are mainly influenced by the time it takes form a user's input to the device to display the completed result on the screen. Since the size of the screen for mobile devices are small, if the processor only fetch data to be used for displaying on screen, the time can be significantly reduced. MVC+Prefetch Controller pattern accomplished this goal by using the minimum amount of data from DB to fetch display and still manages to support high-speed data transfer to achieve seamless display. This idea has been realized by practice using Samsung mobile phone S8500, which demonstrated the superior performance on user's perspective.

Today lots of investigations on Embedded Passive Technology using materials and chip components have been carried out. We fabricated diplexers with 1005 sized-passives, which were made by burying chips in PCB substrate and surface mounting chip on PCB. 6 passive chips (inductors and capacitors) were used for the frequency divisions of $880\;MHz{\sim}960\;MHz(GSM)$ and $1.71\;GHz{\sim}1.88\;GHz(DCS)$. Two types of diplxer were characterized with Network analyzer. The chip buried diplexer showed extra 5db loss and a little deviation of 0.6GHz at aimed frequency areas, whereas the chip mounted diplexer showed man. 0.86dB loss within GSM field and max. 0.68dB within DCS field respectively. But few degradations were observed after $260^{\circ}C$ for 80min baking and $280^{\circ}C$ for 10sec solder floating.

The objective of this study is to subdivide the tactical considerations (METT+TC; Mission, Enemy, Terrain & Weather, Troops available, Time available, Civil considerations) through Delphi method and prioritize those via AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process). Though it has been taken for granted that the tactical considerations were inevitable for decision making relating to military operations, their segmentation and priority have not been studied sufficiently in military. The data for Delphi method and AHP were based on interview with military experts and questionnaires answered by those. Six tactical considerations were segmented into 34 sub-considerations by Delphi, and Six tactical considerations and 34 sub-ones were prioritized through AHP in attack and defense aspects. If the research results will be embedded into database of automatic command and control system (e.g. ACTIS; Army Tactical Command Information System), effective decision-making process will get easier and faster.

Public electronic certificates, as an important means for identification, have been used as the main economic transactions, including banking, e-government, e-commerce. identification. However, damage cases of certificates have been increased by Illegally issued and by hacking practices. Also the users have a difficult in ensuring that their certificates when and where to use. Therefore, the proposed system gives the organization code for the Institutions using OCSP services in advance, the organization code embedded in extensions of OCSP request message structure when institutions ask the validation of certificate to CA(Certificate Authority). Also, OCSP server can extract the organization code from OCSP request message, confirm the institution, and record it in certificate history management table of DB. In this paper, we presented a system that could determine the certificate history check using OCSP service, public electronic certificate validation service, and implemented to prevent and cope immediately with financial incidents.

This paper proposes a new method for tracking image contents, which are re-distributed on the Internet using a web-robot and fingerprinting scheme. The fingerprinting is an extended technique of watermarking and embeds identity of the customer into the content as a fingerprint in a way that is very difficult to erase. The fingerprint in the content can be used widely in the field of the copyright protection technique because it identifies the content itself and includes the information about the original customer. In this paper we discuss an active image tracking system using a web-robot and fingerprinting scheme. In the proposed system the information of the original customer is embedded as a fingerprint into the image content before distribution and also stored into DB. The distributed contents are collected by the web-robot and fingerprinting information is extracted from the contents. Finally the identifying of contents is done by comparing the extracted fingerprint with the selling history of the content.

This research is focused on the development of the proprietary database embedded in the OTT device, which is used for searching and indexing video contents, and also the development of the search algorithm in the form of the critical components of the interface application with the OTT's database to provide video query searching, such as remote control smartphone application. As the number of available channels has increased to anywhere from dozens to hundreds of channels, it has become increasingly difficult for the viewer to find programs they want to watch. To address this issue, content providers are now in need of methods to recommend programs catering to each viewer's preference. the present study aims provide of the algorithm which recommends contents of OTT program by analyzing personal watching pattern based on one's history.
