  • It has been mown that the global warming has an effectet on marine ecosystem and marine environments. Then, fisherman's activity and fishing production were decreased by changing of marine plankton composition and increasing of harmful marine organisms such as jellyfish, starfish and green laver bloom. Harmful red tides algae bloom and the deserted sea bottom often occurred due to increasing of sea water temperature and sea level rising in Korea. In this report, the cause and mechanism of the global warming phenomenon and it's effect on marine environment and marine ecosystem were introduced, and measures against global warming were suggested

  • Change detection using difference picture has been used to detect the location of moving targets and to track them. This method needs the assumption of static camera, and the global motion compensation is required in case of a moving camera. This paper suggests a method for finding a minimum bounding rectangles(MBR) of moving targets in the image sequences using moving region detection, especially with a moving camera. If the global motion parameter is inaccurately estimated, the estimated locations of targets will be accurate either To alleviate this problem, we introduce the concept of the confidence measure and achieve more accurate estimation of global motion. Experimental results show that the proposed method successfully removes background region and extracts MBRs of the targets. Even with a moving camera, the new global motion estimation algorithm performs more precise]y and it reduces the background compensation errors of change detection.

  • Today's Internet which provides communication channels with best-effort end-to-end performance is rapidly evolving into an autonomic global computing platform. Achieving autonomicity in the Future Internet will require a performance architecture that (a) allows users to request and own 'slices' of geographically-distributed host and network resources, (b) measures and monitors end-to-end host and network status, (c) enables analysis of the measurements within expert systems, and (d) provides performance intelligence in a timely manner for application adaptations to improve performance and scalability. We describe the requirements and design of one such "Future Internet performance architecture" (FIPA), and present our reference implementation of FIPA called 'OnTimeMeasure.' OnTimeMeasure comprises of several measurement-related services that can interact with each other and with existing measurement frameworks to enable performance intelligence. We also explain our OnTimeMeasure deployment in the global environment for network innovations (GENI) infrastructure collaborative research initiative to build a sliceable Future Internet. Further, we present an applicationad-aptation case study in GENI that uses OnTimeMeasure-enabled performance intelligence in the context of dynamic resource allocation within thin-client based virtual desktop clouds. We show how a virtual desktop cloud provider in the Future Internet can use the performance intelligence to increase cloud scalability, while simultaneously delivering satisfactory user quality-of-experience.

  • In order to expand its entry into not only the domestic construction market but also overseas global markets, it is necessary to secure technological competitiveness, and as a fundamental measure, it is necessary to increase the proportion of R&D investment and establish and revitalize R&D organizations. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze construction sales and construction R&D investment for global construction companies in Korea and Japan, derive implications, and provide basic data for government policy establishment and global construction company strategy establishment. As a result of analyzing R&D investments in construction companies in Korea and Japan, it can be seen that Japanese construction companies have higher R&D investment costs compared to sales compared to Korea. In particular, the proportion of R&D investment continues to increase year-on-year, strengthening global competitiveness due to technology development. In addition, Japanese construction companies have established a technology research institute to discover and conduct future R&D research such as advanced IT, disaster prevention, and environment.

  • A method that can estimate global deformation and internal forces using a limited amount of displacement data and based on the shape superposition technique and a neural network has been recently developed. However, it is difficult to directly measure sufficient displacement data owing to the limitations of conventional displacement meters and the high cost of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Therefore, in this study, the previously developed estimation method was extended by combining displacement, slope, and strain to improve the estimation accuracy while reducing the need for high-cost GNSS. To validate the proposed model, the global deformation and internal forces of a cable-stayed bridge were estimated using limited multi-response data. The effect of multi-response data was analyzed, and the estimation performance of the extended method was verified by comparing its results with those of previous methods using a numerical model. The comparison results reveal that the extended method has better performance when estimating global responses than previous methods.

  • An improved global optimization algorithm is developed by extending the domain elimination method. The concept of triangular patch consists of two or more trajectories of local minimizations is introduced to widen the attraction region of the domain elimination method. Using the an-]c between each of three vertices of the patch and a design point, we measure the proximity, between the design point and the patch. With the Gram-Schimidt orthonormalization, this method can be extended to general n-dimensional problems. We code the original domain elimination algorithm and a patch-based algorithm. Then we compare the performance of two algorithms. Through the well-known example problems. the algorithm using patch is shown to be superior to the original domain elimination algorithm in view of computational efficiency.

  • Robust design technology has been applied to versatile engineering problems to ensure consistency in product performance. Since 1980s, the concept of robust design has been introduced to numerical optimization field, which is called the robust optimization. The robustness in the robust optimization is determined by a measure of insensitiveness with respect to the variation of a response. However, there are significant difficulties associated with the calculation of variations represented as its mean and variance. To overcome the current limitation, this research presents an implementation of the approximate statistical moment method based on kriging metamodel. Two sampling methods are simultaneously utilized to obtain the sequential surrogate model of a response. The statistics such as mean and variance are obtained based on the reliable kriging model and the second-order statistical approximation method. Then, the simulated annealing algorithm of global optimization methods is adopted to find the global robust optimum. The mathematical problem and the two-bar design problem are investigated to show the validity of the proposed method.

  • Globalization of market has put considerable research activities in cosmopolitism and nationalism. In addition, consumer's perception of product's country of origin is widely regarded as an important influence on their shopping behavior. The objective of this paper is to investigate the joint effect of cosmopolitanism and nationalism on shopping orientation and awareness of the country of origin of fashion products among Korean young consumers. Data from 471 young Korean consumers were analyzed. According to the cosmopolitanism/nationalism measure, respondents were segmented into three groups: global, local and glocal group. Results indicated that global and glocal consumers value symbolic and non-conforming aspects of fashion product shopping and were more interested in country of origin of products than local consumers. Global consumers showed higher level of foreign product preference than local and glocal consumers. Some managerial implication for marketing practitioners was suggested.
