Wireless communication technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in smart factories, but the rise in the number of wireless devices can lead to interference in the ISM band and obstacles like metal blocks within the factory can weaken communication signals, creating radio shadow areas that impede information exchange. Consequently, accurately determining the radio communication coverage range is crucial. To address this issue, a Radio Environment Map (REM) can be used to provide information about the radio environment in a specific area. In this paper, a technique for estimating an indoor REM usinga mobile robot and machine learning methods is introduced. The mobile robot first collects and processes data, including the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and location estimation. This data is then used to implement the REM through machine learning regression algorithms such as Extra Tree Regressor, Random Forest Regressor, and Decision Tree Regressor. Furthermore, the numerical and visual performance of REM for each model can be assessed in terms of R2 and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE).

The rapid increase of mobile devices such as smart phone and smart pad have raised the needs for seamless multimedia services during moving at anytime and anywhere. Current 4G mobile devices are equipped with both 4G (LTE) and WLAN (WiFi) interfaces, and mobile services operators provide wireless Internet services using 4G network with a wider coverage and WiFi zone. Generally users prefer to use the Internet services through WLAN rather than LTE in the coverage of WLAN. However, since WLAN has a long L2 handover latency, it is difficult to support seamless services during a handover. In this paper, we proposed an efficient handover scheme based on flow mobility for WLANs to support a seamless service during handovers by using the overlaid 4G network with a wider coverage. Also, we showed the outperformance of the proposed scheme on a testbed.

Concurrent with the more widespread usage of smart devices, mobile users' desires are becoming much more complex. Most IT experts insist that smart devices should have additional functions to satisfy these requirements. In particular, research has concentrated on LBS (Locationbased Service), because it is considered one of the most common mobile service types. Generally, Wi-Fi has a critical limitation for use for LBS services, because it requires new network connection points whenever its location (Network Zone) changes. Unfortunately, GPS also has a systematic problem in providing LBS service in the indoor environment, because of its inaccuracy in processing data. So, to redress these limitations, iBeacon technology has been designed, and is currently used for LBS service instead of Wi-Fi or GPS. By using iBeacon, which is based on Bluetooth 4.0 LE technology, we propose a M-SAS (Mobile-Subway-Alarm-Service System) that could accurately and timely provide its users with various mLBS (micro LBS) services, such as current user location, and subway arrival time.

Adoption of wireless communication facilities in mobile devices leads to increased vulnerability in individual privacy. One of such cases was discovered when a smart mobile phone of Paris Hilton at Oscar Award Ceremony was hacked a Swedish group of hackers. In this study, I wondered what sort of personal information could be exposed to hackers in such cases. In the course of survey, it was recognized that technical analysis of flash memory in mobile devices to check what kinds of data are stored there is technically almost impossible, since they are usually built in a proprietary manner. No generic tools could apply to discover their contents. Having recognized technical difficulties, it was inevitable to resort to a questionnaire survey to see awareness level with regard to personal privacy. We collected response from three hundred respondents by posting the questionnaire at World Survey on-line research site. What we have discovered was quite astonishing that even personal residence registration numbers have been found from nine of every ten respondents. Other data revealed include phone numbers, names, and personal bank accounts.

The soft keyboard with touch interaction is universally available on mobile phone, a variety of previous studies with respect to the soft keyboard on smart devices had been conducted. However, previous studies of cursor control for text entry on smart devices such as smartphone did not performed. In this study, we compared three types of cursor controls (Default, 3D touch, Slide) in smartphone using Fitts' law and C-D ratio. Then we performed a laboratory experiment with three cursor control types and evaluated using cursor movement time as a quantitative evaluation and 8 subjective metrics for usability as a qualitative evaluation. Then, we discussed what types of cursor control showed better performance and subjective satisfaction through their results. From these results, this study recommended the design guidelines for cursor control on smartphones and developed its study methods as our contributions.

In this paper, we suggest a soft keyboard, called easy keypad, that we use only for login information input in smart devices. Especially, as easy keypad is applied to MTS(Mobile Trading System) we suggest easy keypad in MTS. Easy keypad UI in MTS represents 20 letters and users input login information by using 20 letters. We suggest protocol which decides letters represented in easy keypad UI, which is code for users to input login information by using 20 letters. We analyze easy keypad's safe degree for soft keyboard security threat, especially when it comes to point hacking, we suggest comparison among original soft keyboard's safe degree. Also we suggest mathematical fomula for measuring soft keyboard's convenience and then we analyze the result of soft keyboard's convenience by the presented mathematical formula.

The applications and user interfaces (UIs) of smart mobile devices are constantly diversifying. For example, deep learning can be an innovative solution to classify widgets in screen images for increasing convenience. To this end, the present research leverages captured images and the ReDraw dataset to write deep learning datasets for image classification purposes. First, as the validation for datasets using ResNet50 and EfficientNet, the experiments show that the dataset composed in this study is helpful for classification according to a widget's functionality. An implementation for widget detection and classification on RetinaNet and EfficientNet is then executed. Finally, the research suggests the Widg-C and Widg-D datasets-a deep learning dataset for identifying the widgets of smart devices-and implementing them for use with representative convolutional neural network models.

Smart work has recently introduced as a way to solve problems such as greenhouse gas emissions, low birth rate and aging as well as to improve productivity. Because of development of ICT infrastructure and the proliferation of smart devices, the mobile office has the most commonly used within types of smart work in Korea. But the adoption of the mobile office in small businesses is only half of that of large corporations. The security issue appears to be one of the biggest obstacles to the introduction of smart work in small businesses. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the information security factors that should be considered when the mobile office is introduced to small businesses. By analyzing the previous studies, the information security factors of the mobile office are classified 5 groups composed of 24 factors. 5 groups are terminals, applications and platforms, networks, servers and users. According to the survey result using AHP, 'User' was drawn to the most important group, and 'Data Encryption', 'Wireless LAN Control' and 'Terminal Recovery When Leaving' were drawn to the important information security factors of the mobile office among 24 factors.
