The COVID-19 pandemic has led to distance learning in primary and secondary school. Little has been known whether home ICTs environment is appropriate for the distance learning. This paper aims to assess the current state of ICTs environment at home for the distance learning of children. Using 2012 and 2019 Korean Media Panel Survey, we investigated the number of smart devices owned by households and found differences in ownership by household characteristics. The results showed that the majority of household owned more than one smart devices per child. However, the difference in the proportion of households with less than one device per child varied depending on whether smartphone was included in smart devices. These results imply that public intervention is needed to prevent educational inequality caused by the home ICTs environment for the distance learning.

Recently, software reliability and safety issues are seriously considered since failures of embedded systems may cause the damages of human lifes. For verifying and testing embedded software, execution environment including sensors and actuators should be prepared in the actual plants or virtual forms on PC. In this paper, we provide the virtual prototype based code simulation techniques and testing framework on PC. Virtual prototypes are generated by combining the Adobe's Flash SWF images corresponding to the state machine of HW or environment components. Code simulation on PC is possible by replacing the device drivers into virtual drivers which connect to virtual prototypes. Also, testing is performed by controlling the states of virtual prototype and simulators. By using these tools, embedded software can be executed in the earlier development phase and the efficiency and SW quality can be enhanced.

In this paper, we developed an e-loaming contents for C programming language using Linux and open source software, not using commercial integrated development tool like Microsoft's Visual Studio. In most programming language courses, students study or practice the programming language by editing source code compiling and running the executable code by commercial software like Visual Studio which installed on each PC. This way of learning has some difficulties in total cost of purchasing software and using other PCs which donot have proper software installed. To overcome this situation and enable loaming anywhere, with any device, at anytime, we propose a way of utilizing Linux and open source software in Web-based learning environment. In this environment students can input their source code on the form of broweser and get the result instantly from the server.

This study was performed to develop a long-term air pollution dispersion model based on CDM program for use in the personal computer. The model CDM.PC, developmented for use of this study, simplified the plum equation of point pollution source in a windy state and sindless state. We used the classified 8 class stability, 16 wind direction and 4 class wind speed for the computer input climatological data. The plum rise equation is applied for CONCAWE's equation above 2,000 Kcal/sec of the exhaust calorie and Moses-Carson's equation below 2,000Kcal/sec at windy state, and Brigg's equation at calm. The time required is 200 minutes for drawing the air pollution contour for treating ten stacks under the above-stated conditions. It is the weakness of using personal computer that the operation time is longer than a large-size computer. But it strength is that the personal computer is used widely. To compare the treatment results of CDM.PC with TCM, we comfirmed that the shape of $SO_2$ pollution contour is similar but the concentration distribution is quite different because of characteristics of each models. Estimated and measured $SO_2$ concentration were similar, namely, Cest/Cob ratio of CDM.PC and TCM were respectively $0.96 \pm 0.25 (mean\pmS.D)$ and $1.08\pm0.26$.

This paper presents a real-time fire simulation on the mobile phone using stable fluid animation techniques. Stable and fast fluid simulation methods are developed in PC and console games, but fluid simulation and interactive fluid models require too much system resources for applying on mobile environment. We studied and implemented physics-based models for fluids like fire and smoke effects using billboard and stable fluids simulation method on mobile 3D system. The mobile platform of our system is WIPI, which is the standard mobile platform in Korea, also we adopted NF3D API for our 3D programming API. We implemented real-time fire simulation and added it in mobile 3D game, "Rupee Story".

Through the rapid development in personal computer technology, it has recently become possible to make a radar become possible to make a radar simulator based on the PC. Althougth such a technology has already been developed in the advanced countries like Japan, U.K., and U.S.A., our country has not been able to make such a simulator so far. In addition, revised STCW convention requires the maritime training institution to be equipped with the ARPA simulator satisfying the performance standard specified in the convention. In this thesis therefore, an attempt was made to developed the software of the ARPA radar simulation system using Visual Basic 4.0, with which we can finally make a Mockup style ARPA simulator satisfying the performance standard specified in the convention. In this thesis therefore, and attempt was made to developed the software of the ARPA radar simulation system using Visual Basic 4.0, with which we can finally make a Mockup style ARPA radar simulator. The system developed through the research has been found to run successfully on the desk top personal computer(586PC). A Mockup style ARPA radar simulator will be able to be made by simply installing this software on the PC which will be placed inside a ARPA radar Mockup, and this is one of the future research subjects.

This paper describes the design of hacking prevention systems using a smart card. It consists of two parts, i.e., PC authentication and Keyboard-buffer hacking prevention. PC authentication function is a procedure to handle the access control to the target PC. The card's serial number is used for PIN(Personal Identification Number) and is converted into hash-code by SHA-1 hash-function to verify the valid users. The Keyboard-buffer hacking prevention function converts the scan codes into the encoded forms using RSA algorithm on the Java Card, and puts them into the keyboard-buffer to protect from illegal hacking. The encoded information in the buffer is again decoded by the RSA algorithm and displayed on the screen. in this paper, we use RSA_PKCS#1 algorithm for encoding and decoding. The reason using RSA technique instead of DES or Triple-DES is for the expansion to multi-functions in the future on PKI. Moreover, in the ubiquitous computing environment, this smart card security system can be used to protect the private information from the illegal attack in any computing device anywhere. Therefore, our security system can protect PC user's information more efficiently and guarantee a legal PC access authority against any illegal attack in a very convenient way.

In this paper, we have developed the 6 DOF force display system to be based on the single PC. The system is composed of the force display device, the force reflecting rendering algorithm and the high-speed controller. The previous systems had a problem, that must adopt high performance workstation or 2-PC in order to control the graphics speedily and stably. In this paper, it is possible to improve the problem as to develop its exclusive controller and new rendering algorithm. The proposed new rendering algorithm is based on the Proxy algorithm, which can convert information of the position, the velocity, and the haptic information into the force-data. Especially, as to use the proxy algorithm, we can construct dynamical virtual-environment with the elasticity, the viscosity, the mass, and the friction force. As the result of the experiment, we found that our system has much superior characteristics than some other haptic interfaces, because it can control of 30,000 polygon model constructed virtual object with 1[kHz] haptic interrupt cycle and 20[Hz] graphic interrupt cycle in the single PC based system.
