The smart substation is the heart of a transmission system, which is particularly emphasized as the most significant composition of smart grids in China. In order to assess the functionality performance of substation technologies, this paper presents methods used to identify the most promising solutions for smart substation design and to evaluate the technical levels of available technologies. The multi-index optimization model is presented to address the issue of smart substation planning. A mathematical model of the planning decision problem is established with multiple objectives consisting of economic, reliability, and green key indices, and many kinds of concerns including physical and environmentally friendly operations are formulated as a set of constraints. With respect to the assessment of the technical level regarding integration of advanced technologies into a substation, a modified grey whitenization weight function is adopted to structure a novel grey clustering method. The proposed grey clustering approach is used to overcome the difficulty of insufficient quantitative assessment capacity for traditional methods. The evaluation of technical effects provides the classification definition for the development phase and the maturity level of the smart substation. The effectiveness of the proposed approaches in planning decision-making and evaluation of construction efforts is demonstrated with case studies involving the actual smart substation projects of Wenchongkou substation in China Southern Power Grid (CSG) and Mengzi substation in State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC).

최근 소프트웨어의 중요성이 증가함에 따라 국내에서도 초등학교에서 소프트웨어 교육이 의무화되고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 스마트토이를 이용하여 놀이와 교육을 접목한 코딩 교육이 이루어지고 있다. 다양한 스마트토이 중 가장 널리 이용되고 있는 스마트 토이 중 하나는 블록형 스마트 토이이다. 본 연구에서는 블록형 스마트토이를 조작할 수 있는 스마트폰 애플리케이션에 대한 사용자의 사용성을 향상시키기 위한 평가를 실시하였다. 이를 위해 다양한 사용성 평가 기법 중 하나인 전문가를 대상으로 한 휴리스틱 기법을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 메뉴의 버튼과 스위치 구분이 잘 이루어지지 않았으며, 오류 발생 시 발생 원인이 사용자에게 제공되지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 향후 스마트토이를 위한 애플리케이션의 사용성을 향상시키는데 기반이 될 수 있다.

Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate the possibility of utilizing smart device-based test (SBT) for competency evaluation in dental education and to analyze the student responses on overall competency evaluation using SBT method, in comparison to ubiquitous-based test (UBT). Materials and Methods: Questionnaire surveys have been conducted at Yonsei University College of Dentistry from 2015 to 2018 to obtain students' feedback on the application of SBT to competency evaluation. In addition, in order to supplement the competency evaluation procedure, considerations were explored by comparing the expected and actual difficulty of each item when preparing items for competency evaluation with SBT. Result: According to the survey results, student responses between the initial two years (2015 and 2016) differed from those in next two years (2017 and 2018). Students in 2017 and 2018 had more positive responses on competency evaluation with SBT. To determine the test validity, criterion-referenced evaluation was adopted to compare the data in 2017 and 2018 and slight differences in test difficulty in 2018 between the expected and actual difficulty of items were found. Conclusion: The results indicated that SBT was more appropriate for competency evaluation than UBT, based on four-year period of competency evaluation. The SBT was not affected by either the file size or the number of test-takers. Interestingly, students were not sensitive to test version of competency evaluation (paper-based test and SBT). This study suggests that the quality of the test items should be measured by continuous monitoring of the expected and actual difficulty of items for determining test validity. More detailed results and discussions of the findings are given for the development of test procedure and further potential research directions in dental education.

Consumer Innovativeness is the level of acceptance tendency of new thinking, new product, and service without any communication with other people or experience. Product Innovativeness can be defined with the terms, newness, discontinuous, and radicalness of a product. The purpose of this research is finding if there are relationship between consumer innovativeness, consumers' product innovativeness evaluation, and attitude toward a product. The subjects were 338 male and female consumers aged from 18 to years old. The data were analyzed by regression analysis, t-test, Pearson correlation analysis, ANOVA. In conclusion, consumer's fashion innovativenes had important effects on smart clothing innovativeness evaluation, but consumer's technology innovativeness had no effect on it.

모바일 기술의 빠른 발전으로 1인 1-스마트폰 시대가 왔다. 스마트폰 앱(Application : App) 또한 이제 없으면 부자연스러운 생활의 일부가 되었다. 현재 모바일 앱에서 가장 많은 사용자 및 커다란 시장 층을 형성하고 있는 것은 모바일 게임, 그 중에서도 모바일 RPG 분야이다. 하지만 모바일 RPG에 기존의 PC용 RPG 품질평가모델을 그대로 적용시킬 경우 정확한 평가 결과가 나올 수 없다. 스마트폰의 특성을 잘 반영한 새로운 모바일 RPG의 품질평가모델에 관한 연구가 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 소프트웨어품질에 관한 국제 표준인 ISO/IEC 9126을 기반으로 모바일 RPG의 품질평가요소를 도출하였으며 이를 검증하기 위한 매트릭을 재정의하여 새로운 품질평가모델을 제안하였다.

Recently the blockchain technology has been actively studied due to its great potentiality. The smart contract is a key mechanism of the blockchain system. Due to the short history of the smart contract, many issues have not been solved yet. One main issue is vulnerability and another main issue is cost optimization. While the vulnerability of smart contract has been actively studied, the cost optimization has been rarely studied. In this paper, we propose two cost optimization methods for smart contracts running on the blockchain system. Triggering a function in a smart contract program code may require costs and it is repeated continuously. So the minimization of costs required to trigger a function of smart contract while maintaining the performance equally is very important. The proposed two methods minimize the usage of expensive permanent variables deployed on the blockchain system. We apply the proposed two methods to three prevalent blockchain platforms: Ethereum, Klaytn and Tron. Evaluation experiments verify that the proposed scheme significantly reduces the costs of functions in the smart contract written with Solidity.

The major objective of this research is to evaluate performance of improved intersections for response time to emergency vehicle preemption. Smart technologies have been introduced to civil infrastructure systems for resilient communities. The technologies need to evaluate their effectiveness and feasibility to confirm their introduction. This research focuses on the performance of emergency vehicle preemption, represented by response time, when smart intersections are introduced in a community. The response time is determined by not only intersections but also a number of factors such as traffic, distance, road conditions, and incident types. However, the evaluation of emergency response has often ignored factors related to emergency vehicle routes. In this respect, this research synthetically analyzes geospatial and incident data using each route of emergency vehicle and conducts before-and-after evaluations. The changes in performance are analyzed by the impact of smart intersections on response time through Bayesian regression models. The result provides measures of the project's performance. This study will contribute to the body of knowledge on modeling the impacts of technology application and integrating heterogeneous data sets. It will provide a way to confirm and prove the effectiveness of introducing smart technologies to our communities.
