  • In crowded subway stations indoor air quality (IAQ) is a key factor for ensuring the safety and health of passengers. Since physical variables that describing IAQ such as the concentration of particulate, $CO_2$, VOCs and biological agents need to be closely monitored and controlled in multiple locations within subway stations and in remote sites, concept of web-based monitoring and control network using both wireless and wired media needs to be implemented. Connecting remote wireless sensor network and device (LonWorks) networks to the IP network based on the concept of VDN can provide a powerful, integrated, distributed monitoring and control performance. In this study, performance of wireless and wired network in VDN for monitoring and control of IAQ in subway stations is evaluated. Specifically, delay induced in wireless and wired networks, and data transmission rate are evaluated. A key parameter is identified in assuring safety and health of passengers in subway stations.

  • The main object of Maritime Safety Network is to prevent Marine Accidents in advance and avoid the loss of live and property efficiently. Our country's Marine Safety Network was widely changed with its concerned rules and the operation methods through the complete operation of GMDSS system. Thus, compared with the past, maritime safety equipment and its systems were enforced, but the loss of lives from marine accidents tends to increase against the general expectation. 80 percent of the total marine accidents in Korea is caused by small fishing boats that are capsized immediately from accidents. To minimize the loss of lives they are to require the help of rescue. Lately imported GMDSS communication equipment is operated very fast automatically to issue the rescue and inform the distress, but most general small fishing boats are under 5 ton vessel and excluded from the administration of GMDSS system. In this paper is to propose the proper solution for the efficient improvement of maritime safety network suitable for the our practical circumstance.

  • In this paper we study the modeling to quantitatively assess the failure rate of USN system designed for fault-tolerant architecture, aiming at applying the world's best domestic USN technology to safety-critical railways. In order to apply the USN system to the safety-critical field like a train control sector that the failures of controllers may cause severe railway accidents such as train collision and derailment, the quantitative reliability and safety evaluation recommended in IEC 62278 must be preceded. We also develop the evaluation model for overall system failure rate for the distributed network structure, which is the characteristics of USN system. Especially, we allocate reliability targets to component units, and present an availability evaluation plan through the plan on the quantitative achievement of failure rate for sensor nodes, gateways, radio-communication network and servers, along with the failure rate model of the overall system considering network operational features.

  • During last 30 years, Korea economy has grown so fast and many leading-edge technologies ware introduced from the advanced countries. but this fast growth inevitably produced imperfect completion of infrastructures and caused man-made catastrophes like Sungsu Bridge and Sampoong Department Store. After the incidents, Korea Government and National Assembly established "The Special Law for Safety Maintenance of Infrastructures". According to this law, most of infrastructures must be inspected periodically. During last 10 years after the establishment of the law, many infrastructures were improved and the quality of construction was upgraded. However, important and weak-to-disaster infrastructures need to be watched continuously. Many monitoring technologies were developed and tested in the field. In this paper, the new research project "Establishment of Testbed of Safety Management Network for Main Infrastructures", funded by government, was introduced.

  • China is an Asia country with population more than 1,200 millions. According to the national registration, the number Q[ chemicals commonly used in China reaches 80,000, and the number of chemicals produced in China is more than 30,000, about 10% of which has been evaluated for safety and has the toxicological data. Most of the chemicals still need safety evaluation and a part of chemicals need a renewed evaluation. At present. the information techniques and telecommunication network are develop-ing widely and intensively. It is used not only in different institutions and enterprises, but also in many governmental sectors in my country. Here is the introduction of the situation of information network on chemical safety with toxicological data and the work done by different institutions and governmental sectors in China.

  • As part of an effort to systematize the operation planning for cutting processes, the neural network method has been applied to model the process of selecting cutting conditions and subsequently to arrive at effective and safe cutting conditions through learning during training of the model. New cutting conditions that are more effective and safer for the given circumstance are obtained. The proposed algorithm deletes the old information previously learned, and then makes the network make at improvement by learning. As a result, the new algorithm provides useful cutting conditions for safer manufacturing environments. A variety of simulation cases illustrate the performance of the proposed methodology. The simulation results are provided and discussed.

  • Vehicle communication networks have some deficient network resources to support a vast multimedia service including safety driving information, video, news and some broadcast relayed from the playgrounds such as professional baseball games for autonomous vehicles. This paper deals with the framework for providing seamless multimedia service including safety driving information using multicast in cooperated-connected vehicle communication network (CVCN). It adopts smart-switch (SS) and smart intelligent multicast agent(SIMA) to support the seamless multimedia service. The SS manages and switches multimedia streams through SIMA in CVCN network. The SIMA to operate as an access point, is composed of multicast supporting part and control part of mobile devices/autonomous vehicles in CVCN network. Therefore this proposed technique using SS and SIMA within CVCN network is a new framework for multimedia service that can disperse the load of server.

  • As disasters in the modem era become a large scale and complexity, no single entity can manage them. Instead collective cooperation between civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors is significantly needed, along with a well prepared mechanism. Thus, I attempt to construct the applicable network of civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors for disaster management through exemplary case studies of established countries as well as Korea's current operations and its drawbacks, based upon a networking design of disaster management organizations as belows: Firstly, it is cooperation and coordination among relevant organizations that are required essentially in the new era, in view of formative condition of necessary environment for civil participation. The cooperation and coordination can be made only through the network of civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors. Secondly, in order to build up the network, major roles and tasks which should be done by civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors respectively are listed based upon a stage of disaster management. Thirdly, operation models of a safety monitoring unit, a disaster prevention unit, a emergency response unit, and a rehabilitation unit are proposed in line with the network of civilian, enterprise, school and government sectors in regional base.
