Composites can be designed to have special properties, and even such properties that are difficult to find in nature. We propose a simple approach to realize negative expansion upon wetting, i.e., contraction upon wetting, using swelling materials. The key parameters in one-dimensional case are investigated, and the possible configurations for two and three-dimensional cases are presented. The feasibility is demonstrated through a simple test.

For over 100 years, the tall building has largely advanced in technological innovation; however very little has been done in the terms of understanding the changing needs of the occupant needs and experience. The vast changes occurring due to technology and mobility demand reconsidering the tall building today and for the future. This paper will briefly survey the past eras of tall building design and will propose considerations and solutions for the future.

Recently technological advancements have allowed visible, infrared and thermal imaging systems to be readily available for security and access control. Increasing applications of facial recognition for security and access control leads to emerging spoofing methodologies. To overcome these challenges of occlusion, replay attack and disguise, researches have proposed using multiple imaging modalities. Using infrared and thermal modalities alongside visible imaging helps to overcome the shortcomings of visible imaging. In this paper we review and propose hybrid feature extraction methods to combine data from multiple imaging systems simultaneously.

Measurement of complex surfaces without touching is desirable in several fields. This arises mainly for measurement of complex surfaces including those surfaces that deform during touch. Our research presented in this paper describes the use of a 3D digitizer for scanning 3D objects. The use of such a device, in addition to proper calibration, requires proper scaling in all three dimensions. We propose measurement techniques to measure various aspects of the surface circumference, area and volume. We also present experiments from using a 3D Minolta digitizer for measuring 3D human heads.

In this paper, we introduce an Intersection Collision Avoidance (ICA) system as a convergence example of Telematics and USN technology and show several requirements for the ICA system. Also, we propose a system design that satisfies the requirements of reliable vehicular data acquisition, real-time data transmission, and effective intersection collision prediction. The ICA system consists of vehicles, sensor nodes and a base station that can provide drivers with a reliable ICA service. Then, we propose several technological solutions needed when implementing the ICA system. Those are about sensor nodes deployment, vehicular information transmission, vehicular location data acquisition, and intersection collision prediction methods. We expect this system will be a good case study applied to real Telematics application based on USN technology.

While images and aerial photographs using conventional satellites have the advantage of providing data in a vast area, there is a difficult aspect: the limitations of filming and processing data in a particular region at a desired time and the repetitive filming of a short cycle. With the development of many new technologies to overcome these shortcomings, methods of building cadastral information are changing rapidly. In particular, unmanned aerial vehicles that deploy cadastral information quickly and accurately using UAV have increased interest in technology that obtains cadastral information. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to suggest the application of cadastral measurement tasks in areas subject to cadastral measurement using UAV. To this end, the Commission decided to compare and analyze the accuracy of high-resolution images produced by observation area and apply them to existing cadastral work using verified images and cadastral data. In this study, we will analyze the applicability of UAVs to their cadastral survey by analyzing the current status of legislation related to cadastral survey and the technical characteristics of UAVs and propose technological, legal and institutional improvement measures for introduction based on them.

In this paper, we propose the SINDI-Grid which is a high-performance framework for scientific and technological knowledge discovery using the grid computing. By using the advantages of the grid computing providing data repository of large-volume and high-speed computing power, the SINDI-Grid framework provides a variety of grid services for distributed data analysis and scientific knowledge processing. And the SINDI-Workflow tool exploits these services so that performs the design and execution for scientific and technological knowledge discovery applications which integrate various information processing algorithms.

Prior research in R8ED innovation in Korea has been centered around the 'three-stage development model,' which hypothesizes that the Korean innovation process goes from the introduction (of foreign technology) stage, through assimilation stage to the final modification stage. As Korean economy shifts from traditional industry-led development to innovation-centric development, such an approach loses sight of the whole picture. The current study argues that a new framework is required for adequate analysis on newly arising innovative patterns in Korea, emphasizing source technology development and technology leader strategy. For this purpose, we propose the 'Jigsaw Puzzle Model' of technology development, which is then verified by an in-depth analysis on the innovation processes of 3 representative IT products of Korea, DRAM, TH LCD, and CDMA. The model suggests that Korean innovation model is a dynamic, efficient amalgamation of foreign-acquired and dependent technologies, based on internally accumulated technological resources. The model explains better how Korean firms are achieving a rapid catch-up of technological gaps with advanced nations and are able to transfer from the technology follower to the leader position.

Unlike traditional cultural assets, industrial assets are closely tied with contemporary life in numerous ways, and have acted as a bridge between the traditional architectural buildings and contemporary architectural buildings, reflecting the overall economical, social and cultural portraits of that time. Reinvestigating them in a new light, granting just and fair values, and preserving and transmitting these modern cultural heritages is a method of preserving the historical and cultural traditions in order to keep own identity and integrity. Nowadays, however, due to various sprawling developments and new development-oriented urban policies, only a select few industrial assets are being protected, the rest facing demolition and damages. In order to better cope with such situation, Korea has officially introduced the Registered Cultural Properties System since 2001, and began acknowledging the historical values of industrial buildings as modern cultural properties. By systematic analysis and deduction of characteristics from successfully recycled precedents such Oberhausen Gasometer in the state of Nordhein-Westfalen that have been preserved and recycled as cultural spaces, this paper aims to find and propose suggestions to rehabilitate and recycle the industrial cultural properties in Korea.

This study is to propose the quantitative methods instead of total results on New & Renewable energy R&D investments. To do that, this study used KETEP R&D investment profile, National R&D investment profile, and ISTANS industrial census results. From the analysis, this study firstly showed that the R&D investment on New&Renewable energy is higher than that of other industrial parts. And the investment increase ratio on New&Renewable energy is also very higher during past 10 years. And finally showed that the ripple effects(relatively the employee number, the amount of sales, and the amount of export) of the focus energy group including feul cell, photovoltaic, and wind power was higher than those of general manufacturing industry. This approach was firstly conducted using the poor census results, so other analysis methods will be developed and performed to exact;y show the investment ripple effect.
