  • Radiation protection aims to prevent a deterministic effect and minimize a stochastic effect. Overestimating a deterministic effect and a stochastic effect can result in an inaccurate assessment of the risks that will occur in the future, and thus accurate evaluation of the absorbed dose of these fundamental amounts is especially important. This study was intended to measure Kerma using PCXMC 2.0 based on Monte Carlo simulations and to assess the exact absorbed dose by comparing doses produced using multipurpose dosimeter and glass dosimeter. It has been decided to conduct experiments for skull, abdomen and pelvis, and Kerma measured PCXMC 2.0 based on Monte Carlo simulations. The absorbed dose was measured using muli purpose dosimeter and glass dosimeter. The results for the experiments conducted in skull, abdomen, pelvis show that the difference in dose appears great in the order of PCXMC 2.0, muli purpose dosimeter, and the glass dosimeter, and muli purpose dosimeter showed a value closer to that of Kerma. As a result, it has been found that the glass dosimeter was the most advantageous in measuring the actual absorbed dose.

  • The economic burden which our society has to take exceeds the benefit that it becomes by the free circulation of information. Problems such as inconvenience or inequality between people can also occur since the regulation task of spam e-mail or SMS is imposed on two organs; the Department of Information and Communication and Free Trade Commission. The dualization of regulation separates related laws, which makes exception according to the $\ulcorner$Law on Information Communication Usage and Information Protection$\lrcorner$ or poses double regulation toward the same case. The spam prevention activity at free hands of information communication network provider such as portal site or mobile communication has many limitations along with comparison and analysis of spam regulations abroad. Therefore, examinations on legal obligation such as service restriction, identification and technical measure to spam prevention is needed. This study focuses on making the scope of spam regulation clear by considering the domestic related laws and the general environment of industry, on enacting law which regulates spam including advertisement and on deducting essential facts in enacting or modifying related laws and thus, deducting the form and contents of spam regulation law which is most decent in our domestic environment.

  • In chest and abdomen CT scans, the radiation exposure doses by scattering lines were measured at the eyeball and thyroid. Radiation exposure was investigated by using shielding devices. The chest and abdomen CT scan protocols used in the real examination were applied to measure and compare radiation doses before and after the use of shielding devices at the eyeball and the thyroid. The radiaton doses were measured with OSLD dosimeters. Barium, tungsten sheets, goggles and neck shields were used to protect the scattered X-ray. The chest CT scans showed respectively 3.01 mSv and 6.21 mSv at the eyeball and the thyroid by the scattered X-ray. The abdomen CT scans showed 0.55 mSv and 3.22 mSv for the eyeball and the thyroid respectively. Barium and tungsten sheets had 11% to 13% protection rates at the eyeball and the thyroid for chest CT scan, and 34% to 49% reduction in radiation dose for the abdomen CT scan. Because of the significant radiation dose, which causes cataracts and thyroid cancer by the repeated and continuous radiation exposure, for the chest and the abdomen CT scans, it is required to use shielding devices to reduce radiation dose for examinations.

  • Radioactive aerosol generated in cutting and melting work during the NPP decommissioning process can cause internal exposure to body through workers' breath. Thus, it is necessary to assess worker internal exposure due to the radioactive aerosol during decommissioning. The actually measured value of the working environment is needed for accurate assessment of internal exposure, but if it is difficult to actually measure that value, the internal exposure dose can be estimated through recommended values such as the fraction of amount of intake and the size of particles suggested by the International Committee on Radiological Protection (ICRP). As for the selection of particle size, this study applied a value of $5{\mu}m$, which is the size of particles considering the worker recommended by the ICRP. As for the amount of generation, the amount of intake was estimated using data on the mass of aerosol generated in a melting facility at a site in Kozloduy, Bulgaria. In addition, using these data, this study calculated the level of radioactivity in the worker's body and stool and conducted an assessment of internal exposure using the BiDAS computer code. The internal exposure dose of Type M was 0.0341 mSv, that of Type S was 0.0909 mSv. The two types of absorption showed levels that were 0.17% and 0.45% of the domestic annual dose limit, respectively.

  • The omnidirectional surveillance camera uses the object detection algorithm to level the object by unit so that broadband surveillance can be performed using a fisheye lens and then, it was a field experiment with a system composed of an omnidirectional surveillance camera and a tracking (PTZ) camera. The omnidirectional surveillance camera accurately detects the moving object, displays the squarely, and tracks it in close cooperation with the tracking camera. In the field test of flame detection and temperature of the sensing camera, when the flame is detected during the auto scan, the detection camera stops and the temperature is displayed by moving the corresponding spot part to the central part of the screen. It is also possible to measure the distance of the flame from the distance of 1.5 km, which exceeds the standard of calorific value of 1 km 2,340 kcal. In the performance test of detecting the flame along the distance, it is possible to be 1.5 km in width exceeding $56cm{\times}90cm$ at a distance of 1km, and so it is also adaptable to forest fire. The system is expected to be very useful for safety such as prevention of intrinsic or surrounding fire and intrusion monitoring if it is installed in a petroleum gas storage facility or a storing place for oil in the future.

  • The medical institutions use radiation generating devices and radioactive isotopes to diagnose and treat patients. The patient transporter performs work in an environment that is more likely to be exposed to radiation when compared with the general public, such as inevitably entering the radiation management area for patient transfer, or transferring the isotope-administered patient at a short distance. For this reason, we conducted a study to determine the degree of exposure of the patient transporter. The 12 patient transporters working at Incheon A General Hospital are eligible. From April 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019, the dosimeter was used in the chest for one month and the accumulated dose was measured. The dosimeter used was a Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dosimetry (OSLD) and the dose reading was OSLD Microstar Reading System. As a result of cumulative dose measurement for one month, the average of the deep dose was 0.13 mSv and the surface dose was 0.13 mSv, and the cumulative dose for one month was multiplied by 12 to estimate the cumulative dose expectation As a result, the average of the deep dose and the surface dose were 1.52 mSv and 1.51 mSv, respectively. It is necessary to classify the patient transporter as a frequent visitor in order to measure and manage the exposure dose, increase the knowledge of protection against radiation through education and training, and prevent radiation trouble through medical examination.

  • Recently, many companies improving their management performance by building a powerful brand value which is recognized for trademark rights. However, as growing up the size of online commerce market, the infringement of trademark rights is increasing. According to various studies and reports, cases of foreign and domestic companies infringing on their trademark rights are increased. As the manpower and the cost required for the protection of trademark are enormous, small and medium enterprises(SMEs) could not conduct preliminary investigations to protect their trademark rights. Besides, due to the trademark image search service does not exist, many domestic companies have a problem that investigating huge amounts of trademarks manually when conducting preliminary investigations to protect their rights of trademark. Therefore, we develop an intelligent similar trademark search model to reduce the manpower and cost for preliminary investigation. To measure the performance of the model which is developed in this study, test data selected by intellectual property experts was used, and the performance of ResNet V1 101 was the highest. The significance of this study is as follows. The experimental results empirically demonstrate that the image classification algorithm shows high performance not only object recognition but also image retrieval. Since the model that developed in this study was learned through actual trademark image data, it is expected that it can be applied in the real industrial environment.
