Intelligent homes consist of ubiquitous sensors, home networks, and a context-aware computing system. These homes are expected to offer many services such as intelligent air-conditioning, lighting control, health monitoring, and home security. In order to realize these services, many researchers have worked on various research topics including smart sensors with low power consumption, home network protocols, resident and location detection, context-awareness, and scenario and service control. This paper presents the real-time metabolic rate estimation method that is based on measured heart rate for human adaptive appliance (air-conditioner, lighting etc.). This estimation results can provide valuable information to control smart appliances so that they can adjust themselves according to the status of residents. The heart rate based method has been experimentally compared with the location-based method on a test bed.

This paper presents an electrical power monitoring system for home energy management and an automatic appliance-identification algorithm based on the electricity-usage patterns collected during the monitoring tests. This paper also discusses the results of the field tests of which the proposed system was voluntarily deployed at 13 homes. The proposed monitoring system periodically measures the amount of power consumption of each appliance with a pre-specified time interval and effectively displays the essential information provided by the monitored data which is required users to know in order to save power consumption. Regarding the field tests of the monitoring system, the households responded that the system was useful in saving electricity and especially the electricity-usage patterns per appliances. They also considered that the predicted amount of the monthly power consumption was effective. The proposed appliance-identification algorithm uses 4 patterns: Zero-Crossing Rate(ZC), Variation of On State(VO), Slope of On State(SO) and Duty Cycle(DC), which are applied over the 2 hour interval with 25% of it on state, and it yielded 82.1% of success rate in identifying 5 kinds of appliances: refrigerator, TV, electric rice-cooker, kimchi-refrigerator and washing machine.

Home networking and Internet control technologies must satisfy three requirements with a view to being applied to home for raising the qualify of human life. Firstly, the cost of adding home networking ability to the traditional appliance must be minimized. Secondly, the mutual accessibility between home network and Internet must be guaranteed in the various Internet service environment of home. Finally, communication must be possible between the home network and the Internet that use different communications protocols. This paper proposes the ARCS (Appliance Remote Control System) that controls appliances based on LnCP (Living network Control Protocol) via the Internet. LnCP is the most cost-effective network and control protocol for home network. ARCS guarantees the accessibility from the Internet to home network and provides users with the virtual interface designed for controlling appliances using the Internet application program. In addition, this paper proposes AICS (Appliance Internet Control Specification). AICS, is based on LnCP, defines the message structure and control commands for the Internet control communication. ARCS and home gateway are developed to meet AICS.

This paper describes the development of a window manager based on the real time operating system, Qplus-p, for small internet appliance. Current window managers for small internet appliance are originally developed for desktop environment and then modified for embedded systems. So they have inadequate functions for small internet appliances and do not perfectly support Hangul. The Qplus-P window manager adds the Hangul processing function to Matchbox window manager, a royalty-free window manager for small Internet appliance and provides a new Hangul input method called Amikey. Input mode can be changed automatically from Hangul mode to English mode and vice versa by Amikey. In addition, Qplus-P window manager provides Hangul supported basic applications such as web browser, e-mail client, MP3 player. We developed the window manager by porting open sources to target system after adding Hangul supported functions to them.

This paper presents ideas of service scenarios for home residents using electric power monitoring system per appliance, the implementation of the monitoring system, and analysis of acquired electric power usage pattern. By acquiring and analyzing electric power usage pattern, home residents can get information of power usage pattern of every legacy (non-Demand Response-ready) appliance. Further they can get pieces of recommendation how to reduce energy consumption, intelligent standby power blocking service, and alarming service to abnormality of appliances. In order to check the feasibility of the ideas, a system that can acquire electric power pattern per appliance is implemented, and electric power pattern of some appliances are stored to a database and it was analyzed to show if auto-identification of a type of a device is possible, which is a basic required function for the scenarios presented.

자바는 플랫폼에 독립적인 실행을 위해서 바이트코드를 사용하며, 자바가상머신에서 바이트코드를 해석하여 실행시키는 인터프리터 방식을 취하고 있으므로 느린 실행 시간을 갖는다. 이와 같은 느린 실행 시간에 영향을 주는 요인 중의 하나로써 다차원 배열(Multi-dimension Array)에 접근(Acess)할 때 비효율적인 방법으로 실행되는 것을 개선할 필요가 있다. 자바가상머신에서 오브젝트와 배열은 레퍼런스에 의해서 접근되어지고, 특히 다차원 배열은 배열 안에 또 다른 배열이 들어있는 자료구조를 취하기 때문에 다차원 배열의 크기가 커질수록 하나의 원소에 접근할 때 발생되는 레퍼런스(Reference)의 횟수가 많아질수록 성능 저하를 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 다차원 배열에 효율적으로 접근하기 위한 새로운 배열의 자료 구조를 제시하고, 다차원 배열에 접근하는 여러 개의 바이트코드 대신 이런 자료구조에 접근할 수 있는 새로운 바이트코드를 정의 및 구현하였다. 그리고 이를 실제 클래스파일에 적용하고, 간단한 성능 평가를 통해서 성능 개선 효과를 확인할 수 있다.

Objectives: The purpose of study is to investigate periodontal disease-related recognition and oral health-related behavior in orthodontic patients with fixed appliance. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 286 orthodontic patients with fixed appliance in Gwangju, Jeonnam from September 1 to September 27, 2016. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics (3 items), orthodontic related characteristics (3 items), knowledge of periodontal disease (3 items), and oral health-related behavior (4 items). The data were analyzed by frequency analysis, percentage and chi-square analysis using SPSS 21.0 program. Results: 62.8% had experiences of dental treatment and 67.5% had intention of involvement on incremental care program in orthodontic treatment periods. Accuracy rate of cause about periodontal disease was high in female and case of acquiring information experiences on periodontal disease (p<0.05). 67.2% performed correct toothbrushing for the management of periodontal disease in the experiences of acquiring information on periodontal disease in orthodontic treatment periods (p<0.05). The proportions of using interdental toothbrush and mouth rinsing solutions were high among those over 20 years old and students in the subjects (p<0.05). Conclusions:The accuracy rate were high in the answers about cause and management of periodontal disease in case of acquiring information experiences on periodontal disease in orthodontic treatment periods. Therefore, there is a need to further development and implementation of dental hygiene intervention program for periodontal disease care with fixed orthodontic appliances in that regard.
