Location Based Service (LBS) provides high-value added service to users and various works about IBS have been actively performed. The core technology or LBS is positioning of the users. In the field of positioning, outdoor positioning and indoor positioning are developed separately. We are proposing a design of an outdoor-indoor positioning system, implementing a prototype of the system, and verifying the usefulness of the system through experiments. Our experimental results shows that the average error of our system is 4.8 m in the case of out-door positioning and it is 3.3 m in the case of in-door positioning.

Recently, research about optimizing network of IBS(Intelligent Building System) is in progress activity. When we install existent building control network using general PC, system's efficiency drops. Because server that is charged with the task process is not and is expensive. Also, CapEx(Capital Expenditure) rises because of setting up the network equipment to integrate different protocol in building system. In this paper, we suggests the embedded web server that has various network structure.

Recently, the Track Control System which was separated from the Course Control System so-called Auto-Pilot has been developed for track-keeping in coastal area. From this year, the NAV Sub-committee in IMO commenced to consider the Performance Standard for the Track Control System vigorously. This system will be integrated with ECDIS and IBS so that captain/officers should analysis ship's motion characteristics accurately in the route planning using the electronic nautical charts. In this paper, a new Route Analysis Algorithm using fuzzy reasoning in route planning was proposed for 2, 700 TEU container ship. In order to verify the track-keeping, the author established a ship mathematical model and executed the simulation of the Route Analysis Algorithm at on-line condition with Pentium PC. The results of ship trajectories of the Route Analysis Algorithm were found to be effective to get track control automatically.

Currently, the energy consumption rate in buildings is approximately 28.5% of the total energy consumption in Korea. Therefore the amount of the consumption of petroleum resourses is at a worrying level of the blackout. The system of the amount of the Architectural Energy Efficiency Grade [AEEG] is in force by the government to apply the technologies of the Emissions Trading System and the Target Management System to mitigate the Green House Gases for buildings according to the climate change. On the account the mitigation of the Green House Gases and the reduction of the energy, from the view of maintenance and management, for the new and remodeling buildings should be under consideration. The author wants to present the possible ways how to improve the AEEG for the existing buildings by trying to establish the foundation of the BEMs, and by confirming the potential of the energy savings.

In x-ray imaging system, two kinds of noises are involved. First, the charge generated from the radiation interaction with the detector during exposure. Second, the signal is then added by readout electronics noise. But, x-ray images are not modeled by Gaussian noise but as the realization of a Poisson process. In this paper, we apply a new approach to remove Poisson noise from medical X-ray image in the wavelet domain, the applied methods shows more excellent results in cone-beam CT.

Final construction project cost is significantly determined by construction rate. The Industrialized Building System (IBS) was promoted to enhance the importance of prefabrication technology rather than conventional methods in construction. Ensuring the stability of a building constructed by using IBS is a challenging issue. Accordingly, the connections in a prefabricated building have a basic, natural, and essential role in providing the best continuity among the members of the building. Deficiencies of conventional precast connections were observed when precast buildings experience a large induced load, such as earthquakes and other disasters. Thus, researchers aim to determine the behavior of precast concrete structure with a specific type of connection. To clarify this problem, this study investigates the capacity behavior of precast concrete panel connections for industrial buildings with a new type of precast wall-to-wall connection (i.e., U-shaped steel channel connection). This capacity behavior is compared with the capacity behavior of precast concrete panel connections for industrial buildings that used a common approach (i.e., loop connection), which is subjected to monotonic loading as in-plane and out-of-plane loading by developing a finite element model. The principal stress distribution, deformation of concrete panels and welded wire mesh (BRC) reinforcements, plastic strain trend in the concrete panels and connections, and crack propagations are investigated for the aforementioned connection. Pushover analysis revealed that loop connections have significant defects in terms of strength for in-plane and out-of-plane loads at three translational degrees of freedom compared with the U-shaped steel channel connection.

In this study, we investigate the effect of high-energy ball milling on thermoelectric transport properties in double-filled $CoSb_3$ skutterudite ($In_{0.2}Yb_{0.1}Co_4Sb_{12}$). $In_{0.2}Yb_{0.1}Co_4Sb_{12}$ powders are milled using high-energy ball milling for different periods of time (0, 5, 10, and 20 min), and the milled powders are consolidated into bulk samples by spark plasma sintering. Microstructure analysis shows that the high-energy ball milled bulk samples are composed of nano- and micro-grains. Because the filling fractions are reduced in the bulk samples due to the kinetic energy of the high-energy ball milling, the carrier concentration of the bulk samples decreases with the ball milling time. Furthermore, the mobility of the bulk samples also decreases with the ball milling time due to enhanced grain boundary scattering of electrons. Reduction of electrical conductivity by ball milling has a decisive effect on thermoelectric transport in the bulk samples, power factor decreases with the ball milling time.

The roles of atmospheric heating formation and distribution on the global circulation are of utmost importance, and those are directly related to not only spatial but also temporal characteristics of monsoon system. In this study, before we clarify the characteristics of apparent heat source <$Q_1$> and moisture sink <$Q_2$>, comparisons of three reanalysis datasets (NCEP2, ERA-Interim, and JRA-55) in its global or regional patterns are performed to clearly evaluate differences among datasets. Considering inter-hemispheric difference of global monsoon regions, seasonal means of June-July-August and December-January-February, which is summer (winter) and winter (summer) in the Northern (Southern) Hemisphere are employed respectively. Here we show the characteristics of eight different regional monsoon regions and find contributions of <$Q_2$> to <$Q_1$> for the regional monsoon regions. Each term in apparent heat source and moisture sink is shown to come from the ERA-Interim dataset, since the ERA-Interim could be representative of three datasets. The NCEP2 data has a different characteristic in the ratio of <$Q_2$> and <$Q_1$> because it overestimates <$Q_1$> compared to the other two different datasets. The Australia monsoon has been performing better over time, while some regional monsoons (South America, North America, and North Africa) have been showing increasing data inconsistency. In addition, the three reanalysis datasets are getting different marching with time, in particular since the early 2000s over South America, North America, and North Africa monsoon regions. The recent inconsistency among the three datasets that may be associated with the global warming hiatus remains unexplored.

This study develops and operating software for a model plant. The model plant consists of an AS/RS system, two machining centers, an assembly line, and supplementary material handling equipments. Devices of each component are connected with the IBS RT24 DIO 16/16-T I/O module. Each I/O module communicates digital signals with the INTERBUS controller board via SUB-D 9 Connector cable. This study is a previous stage for developing an educational CIM software. Petri Nets is used for modelling the storage/retrieval of the AS/RS system, the flow of workpieces and the assembly line for parts. The operating software is coded with Microsoft Visual $C^{++}$ 5.0 and Interbus Library which is a software driver for the controller board. The operating software can be run on a MS Windows 95. Microsoft Access is used for the implementation of databases for BOM, AS/RS, and parts.
