Purpose: This study was conducted to determine effective chest compression methods that could be used when performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation in rocking boats. Methods: Tests were conducted for four minutes using manual and mechanical chest compressions on two mannequins, placed in boats, and moving at a speed of 35km/hours on calm sea surfaces with wave heights of 0.5m and wind speeds of 2-3m/s (testing for two minutes, followed by rest, then a second round of testing for two minutes). To compare the quality of the chest compressions, data were analyzed using mannequins (Resusci Anne Q-CPR, Laerdal, Norway) and then statistically processed. Results: When chest compressions were administered in the moving rescue boat, an accuracy analysis showed that the pressure speed of the hand and mechanical techniques were normal, h owever, the pressure depth accuracies were 49.04% for manual techniques and 0% for mechanical techniques. The relaxation accuracies during compressions were 2.07% for manual techniques and 95.4% for mechanical techniques. Conclusion: When administering chest compressions in rocking rescue boats, mechanical rather than manual techniques should be preferentially considered.

The performance of navigational equipments is advanced, but the importance of the practical capability of bridge device by ship's officer, ie the ability of risk prediction and the obligation of avoidance for reducing sea accident, has been constantly augmenting. This abilities and obligation may be represented in the cognitive competence of navigational officer. Different levels of ship's bridge team was carried out rescue maneuvering by ship handling simulator and then it analyzed the resulting of initial response in cognitive progress by case based on trajectory. Further, the data will be used as training and evaluation model of cognitive situation.

The medical sector actively changes and implements innovative features in response to technical development and revolutions. Many of the most crucial elements in IoT-connected health services are safeguarding critical patient records from prospective attackers. As a result, BlockChain (BC) is gaining traction in the business sector owing to its large implementations. As a result, BC can efficiently handle everyday life activities as a distributed and decentralized technology. Compared to other industries, the medical sector is one of the most prominent areas where the BC network might be valuable. It generates a wide range of possibilities and probabilities in existing medical institutions. So, throughout this study, we address BC technology's widespread application and influence in modern medical systems, focusing on the critical requirements for such systems, such as trustworthiness, security, and safety. Furthermore, we built the shared ledger for blockchain-based healthcare providers for patient information, contractual between several other parties. The study's findings demonstrate the usefulness of BC technology in IoHT for keeping patient health data. The BDSA-IoHT eliminates 2.01 seconds of service delay and 1.9 seconds of processing time, enhancing efficiency by nearly 30%.

In this study, I researched, analysed and compared the examples of civilian maritime search and rescue auxiliaries of world leading countries' such as Japan and America, and the Korean volunteer fire fighting team. Through this, I suggest that the decentralized civilian maritime search and rescue forces of Maritime Rescue and Salvage Association and KCG Civilian Auxiliary should be united into unified search and rescue system and establish legal basis for stabilized support and development. It seem that we should organize laws and regulations for the government to have centralized control of rescue mission as in the cases of America and Canada and elivate rescue mission capability with systemized education and training entrusted to specialized external training organization. I proposed to establish financial support such as fund for the stabilized status of civilian auxiliary, domestic and overseas training session for the civilian auxiliary to inspire integrity and sense of duty as a part of maritime search and rescue forces.

Crude oil is complex mixture if thousands of different organic compound formed from a variety of organic materials that are chemically converted under differing geological conditions over long periods of time. Also oil composition varies according to crude source, refining, processing, handling and storage. The oil fingerprint method is application if specific knowledge of petrochemicals and use if sophisticated analytical equipment and techniques to identify the source(s) if oil pollution. KCG currently utilizes four primary analytical techniques: Gas Chromatography (GC), Fluorescence Spectroscopy(FL), Infrared Spectroscopy(IR) and Gas Chromatography mass spectrometer(GC/MS). Of all these techniques, GC technique are most widely used Gas Chromatography is used as a primary analytical method because high reliableness, high separating efficiency and repeatability.

Finding out the exact location of survivors in short period of time is critical to conduct rescue activity successfully in oceans. Current technology with natural circumstances limits the activity that our efforts come along. R&D Center housed at Korea Coast Guard (KCG) has developed the system named "RFID for Life jacket" which enables us to access the location of persons under distressed situation. The RFID has been widely known as state-of-art technology to monitor the location even in inland or in ocean. Composed of tag, antenna. reader and middleware, RFID is attached to attached to a life jacket that people usually wears in recreational activity. By conducting experiments in pilot-scale several times, successful results showing 96.7% of transmission within 3.5km in diameter were produced. This study explains the routes of experiments to reach the goal and expected results coming from this accomplishments.

The Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), is constructed out of teeny-tiny sensor nodes that are very low-cost, have a low impact on the environment in terms of the amount of power they consume, and are able to successfully transmit data to the base station. The primary challenges that are presented by WSN are those that are posed by the distance between nodes, the amount of energy that is consumed, and the delay in time. The sensor node's source of power supply is a battery, and this particular battery is not capable of being recharged. In this scenario, the amount of energy that is consumed rises in direct proportion to the distance that separates the nodes. Here, we present a Hybrid Firefly Glow-Worm Swarm Optimization (HF-GSO) guided routing strategy for preserving WSNs' low power footprint. An efficient fitness function based on firefly optimization is used to select the Cluster Head (CH) in this procedure. It aids in minimising power consumption and the occurrence of dead sensor nodes. After a cluster head (CH) has been chosen, the Glow-Worm Swarm Optimization (GSO) algorithm is used to figure out the best path for sending data to the sink node. Power consumption, throughput, packet delivery ratio, and network lifetime are just some of the metrics measured and compared between the proposed method and methods that are conceptually similar to those already in use. Simulation results showed that the proposed method significantly reduced energy consumption compared to the state-of-the-art methods, while simultaneously increasing the number of functioning sensor nodes by 2.4%. Proposed method produces superior outcomes compared to alternative optimization-based methods.
