This paper identifies the aspects of living environment elements (PM^2.5, PM¹⁰, Noise) throughout Seoul and the urban characteristics that affect them by utilizing the big data of the S-Dot sensors in Seoul, which has recently become a hot topic. In other words, it proposes a big data based urban computing research methodology and research direction to confirm the relationship between urban characteristics and living environments that directly affect citizens. The temporal range is from 2020 to 2021, which is the available range of time series data for S-Dot sensors, and the spatial range is throughout Seoul by 500mX500m GRID. First of all, as part of analyzing specific living environment patterns, simple trends through EDA are identified, and cluster analysis is conducted based on the trends. After that, in order to derive specific urban planning factors of each cluster, basic statistical analysis such as ANOVA, OLS and MNL analysis were conducted to confirm more specific characteristics. As a result of this study, cluster patterns of environment elements(PM^2.5, PM¹⁰, Noise) and urban factors that affect them are identified, and there are areas with relatively high or low long-term living environment values compared to other regions. The results of this study are believed to be a reference for urban planning management measures for vulnerable areas of living environment, and it is expected to be an exploratory study that can provide directions to urban computing field, especially related to environmental data in the future.

This paper proposes a more advanced livestock insurance product by comparing the status of livestock management in Korea with Netherlands case. The project focused on blockchain technology, IoT based management manual and planned livestock insurance related to Insurtech. The livestock insurance policy automatically stores information on each block through sensors attached to livestock, so that the livestock manager carries out follow-up manual for each livestock. Blockchain technology contains numerous advantages such as distributed ledger and irreversibility. However, the sharing of transparent information can be a burden to the policyholder. To compensate it, new business model needs to be proposed to provide incentives to the policyholder. We focused on the data of Gyeonggi Province, which suffered the most from African swine fever (ASF) in Korea. The corresponding Insurtech based livestock insurance can enable policyholders and insurers to build trust by sharing objective and transparent information, and maximize their respective profits by enabling mutual control.

Stress induces change to the body functions and causes chronic problems such as worsening a disease. Thus, humans want to evade anxiety and would try any means to reduce stressful situations. Generally, a person would handle their stress by either regulating their emotions or merely coping with the situation, for which the former is most widely used. Our research aims to effectively reduce stress by using the emotional response structure developed by Plutichik and the vitalization method. We extracted the relevant components of the stress-reduction method that would be applicable in any space using digital technologies such as sensors, IoT, and augmented reality. An architect or designer may incorporate these structural components into any structure to effectively reduce people's stress. The research aims to provide a new perspective of architectural space and to show applications of the stress-reducing architectural spaces, which should also fulfill the people's needs. Further research is needed to develop an automatic system to utilize spatial components more effectively.

Relational Database Management Systems have become de facto database model among most developers and users since the inception of Data Science. From IoT devices, sensors, social media and other sources, data is generated in structured, semi-structured and unstructured formats, in huge volumes, thereby the difficulty of data management greatly increases. Organizations that collect large amounts of data are increasingly turning to non relational databases - NoSQL databases. In this paper, through experiments with real field data, we demonstrate that MongoDB, a document-based NoSQL database, is a better alternative for building a Telco Subscriber Data Management System which hitherto is mainly built with Relational Database Management Systems. We compare the existing system in various phases of data flow with our proposed system powered by MongoDB. We show how various workloads at some phases of the existing system were either completely removed or significantly simplified on the new system. Based on experiment results, using MongoDB for managing telco subscriber data turned out to offer performance better than the existing system built with MSSQL Server.

In this paper, a Kalman filter-based sensor fusion filter that measures posture by calibrating and combining information obtained from acceleration and gyro sensors was proposed. Recent advancements in sensor network technology have required sensor fusion technology. In the proposed approach, the nonlinear system model of the filter is converted to a linear system model through a Jacobian matrix operation, and the measurement value predicted via Euler integration. The proposed filter was implemented at an operating frequency of 74 MHz using a Virtex-6 FPGA Board from Xilinx Inc. Further, the accuracy and reliability of the measured posture were validated by comparing the values obtained using the implemented filters with those from existing filters.

In the cyber-physical system, big data collected from numerous sensors and IoT devices is transferred to the Cloud for processing and analysis. When transferring data to the Cloud, merging data into one single file is more efficient than using the data in the form of split files. However, current merging and splitting operations are performed at the user-level and require many I / O requests to memory and storage devices, which is very inefficient and time-consuming. To solve this problem, this paper proposes kernel-level partitioning and combining operations. At the kernel level, splitting and merging files can be done with very little overhead by modifying the file system metadata. We have designed the proposed algorithm in detail and implemented it in the Linux Ext4 file system. In our experiments with the real Cloud storage system, our technique has achieved a transfer time of up to only 17% compared to the case of transferring split files. It also confirmed that the time required can be reduced by up to 0.5% compared to the existing user-level method.
