In the regular evaluation of engineering education accreditation, there should be almost no deficiencies in the program educational objectives, but they are occurring frequently. From the regular evaluation in 2021, the second deficiency is judged as conditional certification. This paper presents an example of the application of the program education goal adequacy review system considering changes in the social environment with a relatively low understanding of educational goal setting while preparing for the engineering education certification system and certification evaluation. In addition, application cases are presented focusing on the certification criteria, engineering education certification judgment guide, and self-study report form for the linkage application between detailed certification criteria in revising and improving educational goals.

In a MMORPG, a typical application of virtual environment systems, it is a common desire to play in a more realistic environment. However, it is very difficult to provide a latency-free virtual environment to a large user base, mainly due to the fact that the real environment must be configured on multiple servers rather than on single server and that data must be shared on the real server when users move from one region to another. Experiencing response delays continuously in the process of information synchronization between servers greatly deteriorates the degree of immersion. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to minimize the response delay occurring in the information synchronization process between the servers. In this paper, we propose Migration Agent for efficient information synchronization between field servers providing information of virtual environment and minimizing response delay between Field Server and PC(Player Character) and implement it in cloud computing network. In the proposed system, CPU utilization of field server increased by 6 ~ 13%, and response time decreased by 5 ~ 10 seconds over the existing system in 70,000 ~ 90,000 PCs

In this paper, we propose a system that improves the data integrity of IoT(Internet of Things) devices in the virtual environment by combining Hyperledger Indy and MQTT(Message Queuing Telemetry Transport). The system complements the limitations of the centralized system by realizing a DPKI(Decentralized Public Key Infrastructure) structure that utilizes a distributed network in publish-subscribe(pub/sub) pattern communication. Digital signature technology was applied to ensure the data integrity of IoT devices and communication scenarios between the four core components of the client, IoT device, broker, and blockchain, as well as a topic structure using a decentralized identifier to ensure safety in the virtual environment. We present a systematic method for transparent data exchange. To prove the performance of the proposed system, this paper conducted experiments on four scenarios and evaluated communication performance in a virtual environment. The experimental results confirmed that the proposed system provides a reliable IoT data communication structure in a virtual environment.

The ubiquitous smart home is the home of future that takes advantage of context information from user and home environment and provides automatic home services for the user. User's location and motion are the most important contexts in the ubiquitous smart home. This paper presents a method positioning user's location using four cameras and some home context parameter together with user preferences provided. Some geometry math problems would be raised to figure out approximately which area is monitored by cameras. The moving object is detected within the image frames and then simulated in a 2D window to present visually where user is located and show his moving. The moving ways are statistically recorded and used for predicting user's future moving.

Recently, IoT applications are being deployed in Smart TVs, and these IoT applications are using smart TVs as application platforms rather than broadcast platforms. With the advent of Hybrid broadcast technologies, now it becomes available to develop IoT applications which are coupled to the broadcast information. However, the existing IoT services are not suitable for Hybrid broadcast application since they are built on cloud and require various protocol implementations. In this paper, a Fog Computing-based architecture for hybrid broadcast application is proposed. Instead of accessing IoT services from hybrid broadcast app directly, the proposed architecture places Fog Applet Server between them and distribute loads of hybrid broadcast app to the Fog Applet. The proposed architecture is implemented as a service to control IoT device with hybrid application.

Since mobile phones are used as common communication devices, their applications are increasingly important to human's life. Using smart-phones camera to collect daily life environment's information is one of targets for many applications such as text recognition, object recognition or context awareness. Studies have been conducted to provide important information through the recognition of texts, which are artificially or naturally included in images and movies acquired from mobile phones. In this study, a character segmentation method that improves character-recognition accuracy in images obtained from mobile phone cameras is proposed. The proposed method first classifies texts in a given image to printed letters and handwritten letters since segmentation approaches for them are different. For printed letters, rough segmentation process is conducted, then the segmented regions are integrated, deleted, and re-segmented. Segmentation for the handwritten letters is performed after skews are corrected and the characters are classified by integrating them. The experimental result shows our method achieves a successful performance for both printed and handwritten letters as 95.9% and 84.7%, respectively.

For suddenly encountered emergencies, most people embarrass, and can not often deliver the correct message when they report. Recently in the commonplace smart software environment, it is important that they can transmit the correct individual emergency situation efficiently and can receive the best service, and can provide the efficient emergency medical services to real-time around the other emergencies. In this paper, we design a standard protocol for the rapid and accurate technology for transmitting XML-based structured messages to provide an efficient emergency medical services, and offers a emergency medical services protocol to make them available more efficiently.

Voice interactions are particularly effective in applications targeting the digital underprivileged who are not proficient in the use of smart devices. However, applications based on open APIs are using voice signals only for short, fragmentary input and output due to the limitations of existing touchscreen-oriented UI and API provided. In this paper, we design a conversational voice interaction model for interactions between users and intelligent mobile/IoT applications and propose a keyword detection algorithm based on the edit distance. The proposed model and scheme were implemented in an Android environment, and the edit distance-based keyword detection algorithm showed a higher recognition rate than the existing algorithm for keywords that were incorrectly recognized through speech recognition.

Greenhouse provides opportunities to have big yield effectively and efficiently. However, many resources are required, such as fertigation, a kind of solution of nutrient. Resources supply is essential to cultivate crops. Inadequate supply will hinder plant growth whereas the surplus results in waste. In this paper, we are especially interested in the fertigation supply. Further, excess fertigation leads to drainage which is difficult to purify and threatens the environment. To address this challenge, we aim to predict the desired amount of fertigation. To achieve this objective, we first establish a prototype to record the climate conditions inside a rose greenhouse using Internet of Things sensors. Simultaneously, the desired fertigation amount is obtained with the help of weight scale and historical data of fertigation supply and drainage. Second, a method is proposed to predict the desired fertigation by taking the sensors' data as input, with a time-series model. Extensive experimental results suggest the potential of our objective and method. To be specific, our method achieves an average MAE 0.032 in the validation datasets.

Recently smart devices which combine traditional electronic devices and personal computers, such as smart phones and smart TV, have caught people's eyes from all over the world. A multi-media SoC platform which embeds not only a calculating processor but also an operating system could provide an user-customized environment of several types of communication methods to PC or Internet. In this paper, we describe a multi-functioning SoC platform with video, audio and other communicating protocols based on Core-A processor and AMBA buses. To verify the designed multi-media SoC platform, JPEG decoding and ADPCM encoding/decoding algorithms are applied on it and the final decoding results are confirmed by video monitors and audio speakers.
