  • Power automation system to operate power distribution systems can be distinguished by distribution SCADA with remote monitoring and control; and distribution automation system with basic functions such as service restoration to the distribution SCADA; and distribution management system which is operated by various applications in order to enhance distribution system operation performance based on the distribution automation system. In the technological change, a technical boundary of information technology (IT) and operation technology (OT) is being blurred by that new concepts such as interoperability. In addtion, IT/OT convergence has been proposed by the improvement of ICT and power system technology. At the viewpoint, advanced distribution management system (ADMS) to have the new concepts and to increase distribution system operation efficiency through global information and functions from the other systems has been proposed. In order to implement the ADMS, IT and OT have to be employed together on the ADMS; and the concept-based IT/OT convergence concept has been presented. Therefore, this paper introduces ADMS and IT/OT convergence and proposes a design of IT/OT convergence based ADMS system design with configurations and functions.

  • Face recognition has gained significant notice because of its application in many businesses: security, healthcare, and marketing. In this paper, we will present the recognition method using the combination of correlation filters (CF) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Firstly, we evaluate the performance and compared four different correlation filters: minimum average correlation energy (MACE), maximum average correlation height (MACH), unconstrained minimum average correlation energy (UMACE), and optimal-tradeoff (OT). Secondly, we propose the machine learning approach by using the OT correlation filter for features extraction and SVM for classification. The numerical results on National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) and Pointing'04 face database show that the proposed method OT-SVM gets higher accuracy in face recognition compared to other machine learning methods. Our approach doesn't require graphics card to train the image. As a result, it could run well on a low hardware system like an embedded system.

  • Conventional occupational therapy (OT) is conducted under the observation of an occupational therapist, and there are limitations in measuring and analyzing details such as degree of hand tremor and movement tendency, so this important information may be lost. It is therefore difficult to identify quantitative performance indicators, and the presence of observers during performance sometimes makes the subjects feel that they have to achieve good results. In this study, by using the Unity3D and artificial intelligence (AI) speaker, we propose a system that allows the subjects to steadily use it by themselves and helps the occupational therapist objectively evaluate through quantitative data. This system is based on the OT of the sensory integration approach. And the purpose of this system is to improve children's activities of daily living by providing various feedback to induce sensory integration, which allows them to develop the ability to effectively use their bodies. A dynamic OT cognitive assessment tool for children used in clinical practice was implemented in Unity3D to create an OT environment of virtual space. The Leap Motion Controller allows users to track and record hand motion data in real time. Occupational therapists can control the user's performance environment remotely by connecting Unity3D and AI speaker. The experiment with the conventional OT tool and the system we proposed was conducted. As a result, it was found that when the system was performed without an observer, users can perform spontaneously and several times feeling ease and active mind.

  • Process control systems used in most domestic petrochemical corporates today are based on the Windows platforms. As technology leans toward opened environment, the exposure risk of control systems is increasing. However, not many companies are preparing for various cyberattacks due to lack of awareness and misunderstanding of cyber intrusion. This study investigated the extent of how much exposed the petrochemical process control system is to security threats and suggested practical measures to reduce OT cybersecurity vulnerabilities. To identify the cyber threat status of process control systems, vulnerabilities of the Windows platform, a principal cyber threat factor, have been analyzed. For research, three major DCS providers in Korea and the discontinuation of Windows platform of 635 control systems were investigated. It was confirmed that 78% of the survey subjects were still operating in the discontinued windows platforms, and those process control systems were operated in a state vulnerable to cyber intrusions. In order to actively cope with these cyber threats, legal regulations such as designation of critical infrastructure for major petrochemical facilities which is implemented in advanced countries such as the United States are needed. Additionally, it is necessary to take the initiative in eradicating security threats to the process control systems by aggressively introducing security solutions provided from existing DCS suppliers. This paper was submitted to Professor Ko JaeWook's retirement anniversary issue.

  • South Korea's smart factory drive is at a very important point. While large-scale funds and manpower are invested to secure international competitiveness and revitalize manufacturing, software investments that are only approached by IT suppliers may end up creating systems that do not meet the actual conditions of the field. As a result, there are problems in the manufacturing sector that can cause consumers to feel the fatigue of innovation in the manufacturing sector. SMEs should check from scratch and establish a gradual integration system so that they can reduce failures in IT investments and implement OT-oriented smart factories that are well utilized in the field. To this end, a process visualization solution was proposed and a step-by-step innovation was proposed at the basic level and the ICT unapplied level.

  • Operational Transformation (OT) algorithms for real-time collaborative editing systems are becoming increasingly important due to the increased demand for collaborative data processing. The operational transformation algorithm is a technique for real-time concurrency control and consistency maintenance with non-locking technique, and many studies have been conducted to overcome three issues of convergence, causality-prevention, and intention-prevention. However, previous work has the disadvantage of wasting memory by storing all operations that occurred during an edit operation in the history buffer to solve this problem. Therefore, we propose a memory-saving real-time collaborative editing system that maintains a constant memory space and concurrency control through a method of applying the valid-time to each user-generated operation in order to reduce memory waste. This system prevents long-term memory occupation of client-generated operations, thus it reduces the space and time complexity even with low-rate of collaboration work, so that the performance degradation avoids.

  • The biggest problem for the oblivious transfer protocol is the rapid increasement of network traffic and computational complexity if the protocol is used as a sub-protocol compare to the case that when it is used as a standalone protocol. To fix such problems, in this paper, we propose a verifiable Non-interactive OT protocol that reduces the network traffic and computational complexity by preprocessing the necessary computations when the network traffic is low. The proposed protocol uses third root mechanism instead of square root mechanism that is used for the Fiat-Shamir signature mechanism and also uses 1-out-of-2 oblivious transfer based on signature mechanism. We also analyze the proposed protocol by comparing to the Lein Harn, YNIOT protocols.

  • This study is to develop a diagnostic model for the effective introduction of smart factories in the manufacturing industry, to diagnose SMEs that have difficulties in building their own smart factory compared to large enterprise, to identify the current level and to present directions for implementation. IT, AT, and OT experts diagnosed 18 SMEs using the "Smart Factory Capacity Diagnosis Tool" developed for smart factory level assessment of companies. They analyzed the results and assessed the level by smart factory diagnosis categories. Companies' smart factory diagnostic mean score is 322 out of 1000 points, between 1 level (check) and 2 level (monitoring). According to diagnosis category, Factory Field Basic, R&D, Production/Logistics/Quality Control, Supply Chain Management and Reference Information Standardization are high but Strategy, Facility Automation, Equipment Control, Data/Information System and Effect Analysis are low. There was little difference in smart factory level depending on whether IT system was built or not. Also, Companies with large sales amount were not necessarily advantageous to smart factories. This study will help SMEs who are interested in smart factory. In order to build smart factory, it is necessary to analyze the market trends, SW/ICT and establish a smart factory strategy suitable for the company considering the characteristics of industry and business environment.

  • Let {$X_{ni}$,1$\leq$i$\leq$,n$\geq$1} be an array of rowwise independent B-valued random variables which is uniformly bounded by a random various X satisfying $E|X|^{2p}<\infty$ for some p$\geq$1. Let {$a_{ni}$,1$\leq$i$\leq$,n$\geq$1} be an array of constants. Under some auxiliary conditions on {$a_{ni}$}, it is shown that $sum_{i=1}^n a_{ni}X_{ni}\rightarrow0$ in probability if and only if $sum_{i=1}^n a_{ni}X_{ni}$ converges completely ot 0.
