Ground water source heat pump system is the oldest one of the ground source heat pump systems. Despite of this, little formal design information has been available until recently. The important design parameters for open system are the identification of optimum ground water flow, heat exchanger selection and well pump. In this study, the capacity of 50 RT system of two well type ground water heat pump system was used. As a result, static water level was -7 m and the level during the heating operation was -32 m, cooling operation was -40 m. The initial static water level recovered within 48 hrs. The temperature of ground water is $15.6^{\circ}C$ for heating season and $16.2^{\circ}C$ for cooling season and does not depend on the outdoor temperature. Operation efficiency of the system shows that, COP 3.1 for heating and COP 4.2 for cooling.

Image morphing deals with the metamorphosis of one image into another. The field morphing depends on the manual work for most of the process, where a user has to designate the control lines. It takes time and requires skills to have fine quality results. It is an object of this paper to propose a method capable of realizing the semi-automation of field morphing using adaptive vertex correspondence based on image segmentation. The adaptive vertex correspondence process efficiently generates a pair of control lines by adaptively selecting reference partial contours based on the number of vertices that are included in the partial contour of the source morphing object and in the partial contour of the destination morphing object, in the pair of the partial contour designated by external control points through user input. The proposed method generates visually fluid morphs and warps with an easy-to-use interface. According to the proposed method, a user can shorten the time to set control lines and even an unskilled user can obtain natural morphing results as he or she designates a small number of external control points.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid decode-amplify-forward incremental cooperative diversity protocol using SNR-based relay selection. In the proposed protocol, whenever destination unsuccessfully receives the source's signal, one of relays that exploit hybrid decode-amplify-forward technique is chosen to retransmit the signal. We derive approximate closed-form expressions of outage probability and average channel capacity. Monte-Carlo simulations are presented to verify the theoretical results and compare the performance of the proposed protocol with the direct transmission protocol and conventional incremental relaying protocols.

In recent years, there has been a proliferation of consumer health information available on the internet related to parent-child health. More and more, parents are accessing information about child ca re through the Internet and computer at home. But there is no guarantee that the information is current, unbiased, or accurate. Several researchers have suggested some criteria for evaluating internet sites; source, accuracy, disclosure, currency, accessibility. As more consumer search the World Wide Web for parenting information, nurses have to learn more about this technology. Because nurses can assist parents in identifying how to locate information they can trust. It is also needed to for nurses to document the criteria for information selection on internet and to evaluate outcome of cyberspace intervention of parenting.

An application called an app can be downloaded and used on mobile devices. Among them, Android-based apps have the disadvantage of being implemented on an open source basis and can be exploited by anyone, but unlike iOS, which discloses only a small part of the source code, Android is implemented as an open source, so it can analyze the code. However, since anyone can participate in changing the source code of open source-based Android apps, the number of malicious codes increases and types are bound to vary. Malicious codes that increase exponentially in a short period of time are difficult for humans to detect one by one, so it is efficient to use a technique to detect malicious codes using AI. Most of the existing malicious app detection methods are to extract Features and detect malicious apps. Therefore, three ways to select the optimal feature to be used for learning after feature extraction are proposed. Finally, in the step of modeling with optimal features, ensemble techniques are used in addition to a single model. Ensemble techniques have already shown results beyond the performance of a single model, as has been shown in several studies. Therefore, this paper presents a plan to select the optimal feature and implement a learning model for Android app-based malicious code detection.

In this paper, we consider the amplify-and-forward relaying systems with the relay selection (AF-RS) using full channel information (FCI) and using partial channel information (PCI), respectively, in which the direct communication link between a source and a destination is available. And, the outage probabilities for the AF-RS using FCI and using PCI are investigated in Rayleigh fading channels, respectively. We provide exact outage probabilities, tight outage probability lower bounds, and asymptotic outage probabilities, respectively. And also, we present coding gains achievable by the AF-RS using FCI and using PCI. Through numerical investigation, all the analytic expressions are verified, and the coding gains are respectively evaluated with different average channel powers for the first and the second hop as well as different numbers of relays.

The Conditional Mean Spectrum represents a powerful link between the seismic hazard information and the selection of strong ground motion records at a particular site. The scope of the paper is to apply for the city of Bucharest for the first time the method to obtain the Conditional Mean Spectrum (CMS) presented by Baker (2011) and to select, on the basis of the CMS, a suite of strong ground motions for performing elastic and inelastic dynamic analyses of buildings and structures with fundamental periods of vibration in the vicinity of 1.0 s. The major seismic hazard for Bucharest and for most of Southern and Eastern Romania is dominated by the Vrancea subcrustal seismic source. The ground motion prediction equation developed for subduction-type earthquakes and soil conditions by Youngs et al. (1997) is used for the computation of the Uniform Hazard Spectrum (UHS) and the CMS. The disaggregation of seismic hazard is then performed in order to determine the mean causal values of magnitude and source-to-site distance for a particular spectral ordinate (for a spectral period T = 1.0 s in this study). The spectral period of 1.0 s is considered to be representative for the new stock of residential and office reinforced concrete (RC) buildings in Bucharest. The differences between the Uniform Hazard Spectrum (UHS) and the Conditional Mean Spectrum (CMS) are discussed taking into account the scarcity of ground motions recorded in the region of Bucharest and the frequency content characteristics of the recorded data. Moreover, a record selection based on the criteria proposed by Baker and Cornell (2006) and Baker (2011) is performed using a dataset consisting of strong ground motions recorded during seven Vrancea seismic events.

In a cooperative communication system with a source node and multiple relays equipping single antenna and a destination node equipping multiple antennas, the selective cooperative spatial multiplexing scheme can obtain spatial multiplexing gain and additional selection diversity gain. But it can degrade a bit error rate performance because some received symbols forwarded from particular relays may be lost by attenuation due to path-loss. We propose a relay and transmission mode selection scheme which selects minimum number of multiple relays having the channel capacity larger than a given data rate and transmission mode which switches spatial multiplexing and spatial diversity mode in cooperation phase to enhance the bit error rate performance. The proposed scheme achieves 1.5~2dB gain at the low SNR range compared with the conventional scheme by obtaining additional spatial diversity gain.

This study investigated the characteristics of the watershed and pollutants in the Seonakdong River basin in the lower stream of the Nakdong River Water System, and evaluated the areas vulnerable to nonpoint pollution by subwatershed according to the TOPSIS(Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. The selection method consists of selection of evaluation factors, calculation of weights and selection of areas vulnerable to non-point pollution through evaluation factors and weights. The entropy method was used as the weight calculation method and TOPSIS, a multi-criteria decision making(MCDM) method was used as the evaluation method. Indicator data were collected as of 2018, and national pollution source survey data and national statistics were used. Most of the vulnerable watersheds were highly urbanized had a large number of residents and were evaluated as having a large land area among industrial facilities and site area rate. Through this study, it is necessary to approach a variety of weighting methodologies to assess the vulnerability of non-point pollution with high reliability, and scientific analysis of the factors that affect non-point pollution sources and consideration of the effects are necessary.

It is no exaggeration to say that we live with cyber threats every day. Nevertheless, it is difficult for us to obtain objective information about cyber threats and attacks because it is difficult to clearly identify the attacker, the purpose of attack, and the range of damage, and rely on information from a single source. In the preceding research of this study, we proposed the new approach for establishing Database (DB) for cyber attacks using Open Source Intelligence(OSINT). In this research, we present the evaluation factors for cyber threats among cyber attack DB and analyze the priority of those factors in oder to quantify cyber threats. We select the purpose of attack, attack category, target, ease of attack, attack persistence, frequency of OSINT DB, and factors of the lower layer for each factor as the evaluation factors for cyber threats. After selection, the priority of each factor is analyzed using the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP).
