Super-distribution is essential for revitalization of digital contents industry in DRM system. Since existing DRM systems emphasize on security for intellectual property rights, it became restrictions to content distribution and the consumer rights. This paper suggests license management mechanism which strengthen super-distribution between consumers. It is to manage distribution history for each content by inserting consumer's identification information in content head. Client can verify security by comparing header and license after issuing license. It classifies the type of distribution and license, and then applies adaptive distribution methods. It can revitalize contents distribution by releasing proper license for super-distribution.

Recently, research on license plate recognition, which is a core technology of an intelligent transportation system(ITS), is being actively conducted. In this paper, we propose a method to extract numbers and characters from low-quality license plate images by applying the YOLOv4 algorithm. YOLOv4 is a one-stage object detection method using convolution neural network including BACKBONE, NECK, and HEAD parts. It is a method of detecting objects in real time rather than the previous two-stage object detection method such as the faster R-CNN. In this paper, we studied a method to directly extract number and character regions from low-quality license plate images without additional edge detection and image segmentation processes. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method we experimented with 500 license plate images. In this experiment, 350 images were used for training and the remaining 150 images were used for the testing process. Computer simulations show that the mean average precision of detecting number and character regions on vehicle license plates was about 93.8%.

In recognition system of the car license plate, the most important is to extract the image of the license plate from a car image. In this paper, we use ACL (Adaptive Color Luminance) algorithm to extract the license plate image from a car image. The ACL algorithm that uses color and luminance information of a car image is used to extract the image of the license plate. In this paper, color, luminance and other related information of a car image are used to extract the image of the license plate from that of a car. In this reason, we call it the ACL algorithm. The ACL algorithm uses color, luminance information and other related information of a license plate. These informations are avaliable to exact the image of the license plate. The rate of extracting the image of the license plate from a car is 97%. The experimental result of the ACL algorithm for the character region is 92%.

Cars attaching new license plates are increasing after introducing the new format of car license plate in Korea. Therefore, a car new license plate recognition system is required for various fields using automatic recognition of car license plates, automatic parking management systems and arrest of criminal or missing vehicles. In this paper, we proposed an intelligent new car license plate recognition method for the various fields. The proposed method is as follows. First of all, an acquired color image from a surveillance camera is converted to a gray level image and binarized by block binarization method. Second, noises of the binarized image removed by morphological characteristics of cars and then license plate area is extracted. Third, individual characters are extracted from the extracted license plate area using Grassfire algorithm. lastly, the extracted characters are learned and recognized by a fuzzy ART algorithm for final car license plate recognition. In the experiment using 100 car images, we could see that the proposed method is efficient.

In this paper, we propose the recognition system of a license plate using SOM algorithm. The recognition of license plate was investigated by means of the SOM algorithm. The morphological information of horizontal and vertical edges was used to extract a plate region from a car image. In addition, the 4-direction contour tracking algorithm was applied to extract the specific area, which includes characters from an extracted plate area. Therefore, we proposed how to extract license plate region using morphological information and how to recognize the character string using SOM algorithm. In this paper, 50 car images were tested. The extraction rate obtained by the proposed extraction method showed better results than that from the color information of RGB and HSI, respectively. And the license plate recognition using SOM algorithm was very efficient.

The existing recognition system of license plates cannot get the satisfactory result in noise environments. The purpose of this paper is to propose an algorithm that can recognize the region of license plates accurately in a noise environment. The algorithm is formulated by reorganizing the U- and V-channels of YUV color space as YUV is insensitive to light and carries less data than RGB color information. The region of license plates has been extracted by the geometric characteristics, sizes, and places of labeling images. The proposed algorithm was found to improve the process of extracting the region of license plates in various noise environments.

The aim of this study is to reflect on the issues of the National Medical Services Law for Korean medicine practitioners (KM practitioners) in Korea, especially those discussed at the Assembly plenary session in 1951. In 1951, the National Assembly wanted to establish the National Medical Services Law (國民醫療法) replacing the colonial medical services law (朝鮮醫療令). Consequently the National Assembly passed the law establishing the license level of KM practitioners equal to that of Western practitioners. But the progress of establishing the law was not easy. There was much dispute over the KM practitioners system amongst the legislators at the Assembly plenary session in 1951. One of the main dispute was about setting the license level of KM practitioners. There were two main positions. One insisted that the license level of KM practitioners should be equal to that of Western practitioners. They had many reasons to support their contended point. From a historical, social, economical, medical and institutional point of view, they argued that the people had needed the KM and thus the new founded Korea had to reflect this situation. The other insisted that the license level of KM practitioners should be below that of Western practitioners. The reason was mainly that the KM was not scientific. This study concludes that the argument of the former was superior to the latter in quantity and quality.

The purpose of this study is to present the internationalization of South Korea's aircraft maintenance certificate for mutual recognition of aircraft maintenance license qualifications among various countries in preparation for an internationalization of the work conducted by the aviation industry. To achieve this objective, this study reviews the aircraft maintenance license training system and compares the standards for aircraft maintenance certification established by the Convention on International Civil Aviation with the standards for issuing domestic aircraft maintenance licenses. This comparative analysis shows that the domestic curriculum of aircraft maintenance licenses differs from international standards. As a result of this study, an improvement plan of the education content was proposed to enable the licensing qualifications of domestic aircraft maintenance licenses to be mutually recognized among different countries.

According to increase of Franchise Agreements, troubles related to those agreements and trading acts occur frequently. As Franchise system had come from Western countries, franchise agreement troubles tend to international disputes. In fact, those parties entered into a franchise agreement prefer arbitration to lawsuit as a dispute resolution system because arbitration is easy to risk-management for cost and time. The essential conditions for Franchise agreements are as follows ; for Franchise to grant Intellectual Properties to Franchisee, to give an impression of the same company between Franchise and Franchisee, to control and support Franchisee, for Franchisee to be an independent merchant, and to pay Franchiser license fee. Because Franchise Agreement is also based on liberty of contract, Franchise and Franchisee could enter into any kind of agreement. However, Franchiser can make an unfair agreement abusing a position of advantage. This paper check those unfair terms and conditions in Franchise agreement. Once they enter into an agreement, they should fulfil their contract. In case of trouble on performing the contract, both of them have to discuss to solve that trouble faithfully. But, they enter into either lawsuit or arbitration in accordance with agreement when they can't reach a decision in general. Specially, which is the most popular dispute resolution hands in case of Intellectual Property License agreement. General international Franchise Agreements have arbitration terms, but there is other case such as separate Arbitration Agreement if the want, which is separate from Franchise License agreement, so even though Franchise License agreement is invalidated, Arbitration agreement continues to exist, This paper reviews Franchise system and the terms of arbitration in Franchise agreement.
