  • A construction site is a highly complex and constantly changing environment, where hazardous areas are difficult to detect if workers lack sufficient knowledge and awareness. Thus, frequent worker safety training is required. Numerous studies on using virtual reality (VR) for safety training were published. While they demonstrate the potential for improving the skills necessary to avoid accidents in the construction industry, they remain difficult to apply at actual construction sites. VR requires specialized hardware and software, limiting workers' access and restricting workers' participation in training sessions. As a result, this paper proposes multiple platforms for immersive virtual reality safety training (VRMP) based on Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) and web technologies such as immersive web (WebXR). The VRMP is compatible with mobile and desktop devices currently by workers and demonstrates scenario models familiar to workers. Also, it reduces development time by utilizing Building Information Models (BIM). Additionally, The VRMP collects data from workers in a virtual environment to assess each worker's safety level, assisting workers in effectively and comfortably gaining a better understanding and raising their awareness. This paper develops a case study based on the VRPM in order to assess its effectiveness.

  • Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are self-organized networks that typically consist of thousands of low-cost, low-powered sensor nodes. The reliability and availability of WSNs can be affected by faults, including those from radio interference, battery exhaustion, hardware and software failures, communication link errors, malicious attacks, and so on. Thus, we propose a novel multi-agent fault tolerant system for wireless sensor networks. Since a major requirement of WSNs is to reduce energy consumption, we use multi-agent and mobile agent configurations to manage WSNs that provide energy-efficient services. Mobile agent architecture have inherent advantages in that they provide energy awareness, scalability, reliability, and extensibility. Our multi-agent system consists of a resource manager, a fault tolerance manager and a load balancing manager, and we also propose fault-tolerant protocols that use multi-agent and mobile agent setups.

  • The performance of smartphone applications are usually constrained in user interactions due to resource limitation and it promises great opportunities to improve the performance by exploring the smartphone built-in and embedded sensing techniques. However, heterogeneity in techniques, semantic gap between sensor data and usable context, and complexity of contextual situations keep the techniques from seamless integration. Relevant studies mainly focus on feasibility demonstration of emerging sensing techniques, which rarely address both general architectures and comprehensive technical solutions. Based on a proposed functional model, this investigation provides a general architecture to deal with the dynamic context for context-aware automation and decision support. In order to take advantage of the built-in sensors to improve the performance of mobile applications, an ontology-based method is employed for context modelling, linguistic variables are used for heterogeneous context presentation, and semantic distance-based rule matching is employed to customise functions to the contextual situations. A case study on mobile application authentication is conducted with smartphone built-in hardware modules. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed solutions and their effectiveness in improving operational efficiency.

  • The research on optimization of cellular network's energy efficiency (EE) towards environmental and economic sustainability has attracted increasing attention recently. In this survey, we discuss the opportunities, trends and challenges of this challenging topic. Two major contributions are presented namely 1) survey of proposed energy efficiency metrics; 2) survey of proposed energy efficient solutions. We provide a broad overview of the state of-the-art energy efficient methods covering base station (BS) hardware design, network planning and deployment, and network management and operation stages. In order to further understand how EE is assessed and improved through the heterogeneous network (HetNet), BS's energy-awareness and several typical HetNet deployment scenarios such as macrocell-microcell and macrocell-picocell are presented. The analysis of different HetNet deployment scenarios gives insights towards a successful deployment of energy efficient cellular networks.

  • In this study, we explore social awareness, interest, and acceptance of generative AI, including chatGPT, which has revolutionized web search, 30 years after web search was released. For this purpose, we performed a machine learning-based topic modeling analysis based on Korean news big data collected from November 30, 2022, when chatGPT was released, to August 31, 2023. As a result of our research, we have identified seven topics related to chatGPT and generative AI; (1)growth of the high-performance hardware market, (2)service contents using generative AI, (3)technology development competition, (4)human resource development, (5)instructions for use, (6)revitalizing the domestic ecosystem, (7)expectations and concerns. We also explored monthly frequency changes in topics to explore social interest related to chatGPT and Generative AI. Based on our exploration results, we discussed the high social interest and issues regarding generative AI. We expect that the results of this study can be used as a precursor to research that analyzes and predicts the diffusion of innovation in generative AI.

  • 지금까지 이동전화 관련 산업은 시장점유율 증대를 위한 신규고객 확보에 주력하였으나 관련 시장은 이미 포화상태에 도달하여 신규고객 확보보다 기존고객 유지를 위한 새로운 전략을 모색하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이동전화기와 관련된 고객의 특성을 살펴보고 이동전화기의 속성요인들에 대하여 분석한 후 고객만족도와 이동전화기 속성요인들과의 관계를 구조방정식을 이용하여 분석하였다. 사용기간이 2년 이상인 경우는 전체의 10% 정도로 나타났으며, 재구매시 현재 사용중인 제품과 다른 회사의 제품을 구입하겠다는 응답이 49% 정도로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 다양한 제품의 출시와 번호이동 등의 치열한 제품경쟁으로 인한 이동전화기의 수명이 짧아졌기 때문이라는 사실과 더불어 최근에 세계적으로 인기를 끌고 있는 스마트폰의 영향이 있는 것으로 생각된다. 고객만족도와 관련된 이동전화기의 속성으로부터 4가지 요인(실용성, 기기 품질, 인지도, 복합기능)이 도출되었다. 실용성과 기기품질이 고객만족에 영향을 주는 주요요인으로 밝혀졌고, 인지도(브랜드, 유행 등)는 고객만족에 상대적으로 영향력이 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다.

  • 언제 어디서나 인터넷에 접속 할 수 있는 유비쿼터스 패러다임이 확대 되면서 다양한 기기가 인터넷에 연결되는 사물인터넷에 대한 기대와 관심이 높아지고 이다. 사물인터넷에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 더불어 오픈소스 하드웨어에 대한 관심도 높아지고 있다. 이로 인해 최근 거대한 생산 장비를 보유하지 않은 일반인이 디지털 제작 도구를 활용하여 생각했던 제품을 실제로 만드는 창작자인 메이커가 새로운 트렌트로 부상하고 있다. 이러한 메이커들이 제품을 만드는 방법을 공유하면서 오픈소스 제조업 운동인 '메이커 운동'이 확산되었다. 국내의 경우에도 정부의 정책적 지원을 통해 메이커 운동이 활성화 되고 있는 추세이다. 하지만 선진국에 비해 메이커 문화에 대한 인식과 환경이 미비하고, 메이커를 위한 특화된 교육/개발용 장비나 키트 없이 오픈 플랫폼 하드웨어와 소프트웨어만을 이용하는 실정이다.

  • 본 논문에서는 실시간으로 상수 및 변수의 병렬 매칭이 가능한 새로운 구조의 하드웨어 기반 룰-베이스 시스템 구조를 제안한다. 이 시스템은 context-aware computing 시스템에서 상황 인식을 위한 기법으로 적용될 수 있다. 제안한 구조는 기존의 하드웨어 기반의 구조가 가지는 룰의 표현 및 룰의 구성에서 발생하는 제약을 상당히 감소시킬 수 있다. 이를 위해 변형된 형태의 content addressable memory(CAM)와 crossbar switch network(CSN)가 사용되었다. 변형된 형태의 CAM으로 구성된 지식-베이스는 동적으로 데이터의 추가 및 삭제가 가능하다. 또한 CSN은 input buffer와 working memory(WM) 사이에 위치하여, 시스템 외부 및 내부에서 동적으로 생성되거나, 시스템의 설정에 의해 지정된 데이터들의 조합 및 pre-processing module(PPM)을 이용한 연산을 통하여 WM을 구성하는 데이터를 생성시킨다. 이 하드웨어 룰-베이스 시스템은 SystemC ver. 2.0을 이용하여 설계되었으며 시뮬레이션을 통하여 그 동작을 확인 및 검증하였다.

  • An Internet of Things(IoT) technology which provides intelligent services by combining context-awareness based intelligences, inter-communication is made of between things and things or between things and person through the network connected with intelligent things is spreading rapidly. Especially as this technology is converged into smart device, mobile, cloud, big data technologies, it is applied into various domains. Therefore, this is different from existing Web or Mobile Application. New types of IoT applications are emerging by adapting IoT into Web or mobile. Because IoT application is not only focused on software but also considering hardware or things aspect, there are limitations existing development process. Existing development processes don't consider analysis and design techniques considering both hardware and things. We propose not only a meta-model for development process which can support IoT application's development but also meta-models for main activities in this paper. Especially we define modeling elements by using UML's extension mechanisms, provide development process, and suggest design techniques how to apply those elements into IoT application's modeling phase. Because there are many types of IoT application's type, we propose an Android and Arduino-based on IoT application as a case study. We expect that proposed technique can be applied into many of various IoT application development and design with a form of flexible and extensible as well as main functionalities or elements are more concretely described. As a result, it brings IoT application's flexibility and the effect of quality improvement.
