  • This study analyzes a language network of Science and Technology Basic Plan, which is the basis for science and technology policy in Korea, for the next Science and Technology Basic Plan. Language network analysis was adopted for a quantitative approach measuring the trend of policies. Several techniques such as keyword analysis, language network map analysis, quantitative characteristics analysis and keyword-related major-word analysis have been performed. Results show that there are common policies emphasized by all Science and Technology Basic Plans in the past, and there are also specific policies emphasized in each period of the Science and Technology Basic Plan. These specific policies come from a 'change of times' when the Science and Technology Basic Plans were established, as well as the philosophy of the national government.

  • Effective management strategies of railroad environment should be prepared by the systematic management with the environment core technologies from the initial stage of the railroad environment to provide energy-efficient, safe, sound, and environment-friendly railroad service. In addition, the need for the development of railroad environment policy, like the improvement strategies and development strategies of railroad environment, is strongly required to actively prepare for the strengthening of environment regulations and supervision on the railroad environment problems. In this research, we studied the correlations between railroad environment policies and management strategies, and defined the component of environment policies. Moreover, we tried to present the direction of environment policies and mid-/long-term development plans that suit for the characteristics of Korean railroad through investigating the environmental policies of advanced countries.

  • In this paper we design and implement a sensor network management framework(SNMF) for ubiquitous sensor networks(USNs). The SNMF employs the policy-based management approach for the autonomous and energy-efficient management of USNs. Moreover, a new light-weight policy distribution protocol called TinyCOPS-PR is designed and USN PIB for low-level policy is also defined. This allows the high-level policies defined by an administrator to translate into the specific low-level policies. The low-level policies are executed on sensor nodes so it can fulfill the proper management actions. The sensor nodes that receive some policies from an administrator perform local management actions according to those policies. SNMF can therefore realize small energy consumption and bring long network lifetime. It can also manage USNs automatically with a minimum of human interference.

  • New & renewable energy becomes a crucial subject to solve the problems inherent in the current energy resources, which results in the fast development of the new & renewable energy industry worldwide. However, not only its base is still weak but the high initial investment for technology development and certain scale of an energy market are required in many cases. For this reason, many countries in the world, including Korea, run the energy policies to foster the new & renewable energy industry such as RSP and FIT. In general, a policy should be established to take various, intertwined interests as well as a number of variables related to economic, social, environmental, and international matters into comprehensive consideration. For new & renewable energy industry, there are many variables to be considered and indexes necessary for evaluation but it is hard to take all of them into account. Even though they were considered, no criteria are available for use in a consistent manner. Therefore, this study plans to develop an evaluation model for the Korean new & renewable energy policy.

Regional Carbon Emissions Analysis in Settlement and Production Space for Local Government Polices - Focused on Gyeongsangnam Province - (지역의 탄소중립 전략을 위한 정주 및 생산공간에서의 탄소배출 특성 분석 -경상남도 지역을 대상으로-)

  • Local governments play a critical role in achieving carbon neutrality and reducing national carbon emissions. To manage carbon emissions effectively, it is essential for local governments to analyze regional carbon emissions. In this study, we developed a model for estimating carbon emissions based on land use and analyzed regional characteristics of carbon emissions to suggest policies for achieving carbon neutrality at the regional level. Our model for calculating carbon emissions is based on an analysis of the activities that contribute to carbon emissions for each land use, and we established the spatial scope of carbon emission calculation. We applied this model to the cities and counties in Gyeongsangnam province, calculating carbon emissions from settlement and agricultural production activities and comparing regional characteristics of carbon emissions. Our analysis showed that areas with larger populations generally produced higher emissions in all categories, but we observed different results in terms of unit emissions, emissions divided by area, population, and household. Based on these findings, we propose policies such as increasing the generation of new and renewable energy using public institutions, promoting the conversion to cleaner cooking and heating energy sources, and encouraging the adoption of eco-friendly automobiles on roads. We believe that our analysis of the spatial and regional characteristics of carbon emissions can help local governments establish effective policies for reducing carbon emissions in their regions.

  • Nowadays, reduction of energy use in buildings is a big issue, especially in public buildings like schools. The building structure is very simple in that, the room size, schedule and user number is similar across different schools. There are many policies which are suitable for this kind of buildings. Investigation of energy consumption pattern in primary school, middle school and high school in different cities of Korea has been done in this paper using statistical data from national organization and the data from IBM and Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, aimed at providing the basic data for the development of energy efficiency improvement policies of educational facilities. The study was divided according to climate, energy source type and public or private school, as different cities have different climates and accordingly different amount of energy sources are used. It was observed that, the average energy consumption in primary school is $36.9kWh/m^2$, in middle school is $20.5kWh/m^2$ and in high school $27.4kWh/m^2$. As further analysis, monthly energy consumption pattern has been analyzed for one city.

  • This study uses a computable partial-equilibrium model of the U.S. energy industry to evaluate sulfur dioxide concentrations under two environmental policies. The policies, generator-level emission caps and tradable allowances, are selected to yield identical aggregate emissions. Regional concentrations are found to vary across the two policies significantly. These variations translate into different losses for individual states, and, nationwide, to differences of hundreds of millions of dollars in aggregate health damages. Emission caps outperform allowances by $452 million. Caps favor the southwestern, south-central and southeastern states, where they deliver $840 million lower damages than the other policies, while they deliver $390 million higher damages In northern and northeastern states.

  • The purpose of this paper is to highlight the main policies of the last half century that have shaped the urban architectural fabric of Seoul today, and explore whether a modified approach might better address the current socioeconomic conditions in Korea. The paper defines and examines urban planning in Korea through an overview of the four main urban project policies implemented in Seoul from the 1960s to the present: Land Readjustment (LR), Housing Site Development (HSD), Urban Redevelopment (UR), and Housing Reconstruction (HR). While the fundamental ideology behind these policies served well during a prolonged period of high economic growth, evidence is growing that these policies are losing steam under today's conditions. A growing legacy of stalled and incomplete urban projects from the mid-2000s-the New Town Project is an example-begs the fundamental question as to whether an alternative urban planning paradigm is needed for Korea in an age of low economic growth, low birth rates and a fossil fuel energy crisis. Through the urban morphologies of the three residential areas in Seoul developed by LR projects, this paper looks at the possibility of urban regeneration through the sustainment of urban architecture in those residential areas that have not been affected by HSD, UR, and HR.
