In recent years, many people are living in a space limited by rapid global industrial development and economic growth, and rapid urbanization is underway, with the global urban population estimated to be more than 70 percent in 2050. Due to rapid urbanization, government-led smart city models are being developed and introduced to solve various urban problems such as disaster safety, air pollution, water pollution, energy shortage, disease, crime and transportation. However, since ICT technology of public housing is being developed as a type of social overhead capital project, it is necessary to develop micro-smart city projects that residents can feel by developing services such as public safety, living environment, living welfare, and energy management for public housing residents. Therefore, in this paper, the smart platform model of public housing for smart city in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is planned and presented.

With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution, technologies such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and cloud computing are developing rapidly, and smart homes enabled by these technologies are rapidly gaining popularity. To gain a competitive advantage in the global market, companies must understand the differences in consumer needs in different countries and cultures and develop corresponding business strategies. Therefore, this study conducts a comparative analysis of consumer reviews of smart homes in South Korea and China. This study collected online reviews of SmartThings, ThinQ, Msmarthom, and MiHome, the four most commonly used smart home apps in Korea and China. The collected review data is divided into satisfied reviews and dissatisfied reviews according to the ratings, and topics are extracted for each review dataset using LDA topic modeling. Next, the extracted topics are classified according to five evaluation factors of Perceived Usefulness, Reachability, Interoperability,Trustness, and Product Brand proposed by previous studies. Then, by comparing the importance of each evaluation factor in the two datasets of satisfaction and dissatisfaction, we find out the factors that affect consumer satisfaction and dissatisfaction, and compare the differences between users in Korea and China. We found Trustness and Reachability are very important factors. Finally, through language network analysis, the relationship between dissatisfied factors is analyzed from a more microscopic level, and improvement plans are proposed to the companies according to the analysis results.

Recently, smart home technology has been developed with a great response due to the convenience of home automation. Smart home technology provides various services by connecting various Internet of Things (IoT) and sensors to a home network through wired/wireless networks. In addition, the smart home service easily and conveniently controls lighting, energy, environment, and door cameras through a wall pad. However, while it has become a social issue due to the recent hacking accident of wall pads, personal information leakage and privacy infringement are expected. Accordingly, it is necessary to prepare preventive and countermeasures against security vulnerability factors of wall pads. Therefore, this study expects that it can be used as basic data for future smart home application and response technology development by examining the weak causes and countermeasures related to wall pads.

With Internet of Things (IoT) technology, home environment becomes smarter than ever. Not only smart devices such as smart phone or smart TV, but also various IoT devices including sensor, smart thermostat, and smart scale has now become very common on the market. These devices have connectivity to the Internet, so that user can read data from the device or control the device using Internet technology. However, due to diversity of smart home requirements, device collaboration in smart home remains a challenging task still. Usually smart home is built with various technologies to fulfill its own purpose, and these purposes cover very wide area from controlling low-power sensor devices to controlling high-performance devices like smart TV and smart phone. This variety of smart home requirements makes smart home very complicated due to mixed network architecture, protocol and technology. In this paper, a framework to enable managing and collaborating heterogeneous IoT devices in smart home environment is proposed. Several programming models are defined in the proposed framework to make application development for heterogeneous devices more intuitive. The proposed framework has been implemented as a web service, and a case study with real-world smart home IoT devices is presented.

Along the era of "Internet of Things (IoT)" in which the physical objects can be connected to the Internet, a smart power management system is proposed in this paper. This system consists of two modules, an electrical outlet device embedding the Wi-Fi capabilities and a web server supporting the management as well as monitoring of power consumptions. Also, with the proposed system, a customer can easily check the status of power consumption and turn on/off the sockets through the developed mobile website. The proposed system is designed to avoid firewall or PC setting problems involving a user's inconvenience.

Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a key control for Material Handling System (MHS) and Inventory Control System (ICS). How to design and implement for WMS is crucial factor for achieving the key performance index for Manufacturing Industry. In particular, iron and steel making industry, where the volume and weight is large and hence FIFO (First Input First Out) is not working, how to design WMS is a key factor. In this paper, we systematically define the problem of WMS via developing StR (Stakeholders' Requirements) or ORD (Operational Requirement Documents), SyR (System Requirement), and SA (System Architecture) based on the emerging technologies. In particular, IoT (Internet of Things), CPS (Cyber Physical System) concepts and enabling technologies haves been incorporated in developing Smart WMS. The deliverables of the research can provide a conceptual framework for developing the next generation industrial WMS.

IoT technologies have been rapidly developed in recent years, and applied to many industries. In the field of fisheries, the water quality management system have been developed, helping in improving productivity and working environment. In this paper, we have designed the smart feeding system, interoperable with the water quality system, using LPWA network. LPWA network is an IoT network, which is appropriate to fish farms because of its wide area coverages and low power consumption. We expect this work to contribute to developing the aquaculture technology through the big data analysis with the accumulated data.

Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the overall process (component procurement, production planning, delivery, inventory control, etc.). It is the process from the supplier to the consumer until the raw material becomes the finished product. Basically, traditional supply chain management is primarily aimed at cost reduction and efficiency. However, considering only cost reduction and efficiency, it is not easy apply the center of 4th industry to Smart Factory. In this study, I propose a form of supply chain management network. It can be satisfy the security by using block chain and automatic control of each element by adding the internet of things.

In this paper, the Digital DoorLock by Internet of Things (DDiT) is introduced. In order to implement DDiT, an integrated micro-controller platform, Arduino is used to control an existing digital doorlock and an android type smart phone is adopted as a mobile platform. One of the advantages of DDiT is that it can be added to an existing digital doorlock and a smart phone application is used as a digital key. Owing to the smart phone application, several other types of applications could also be made. Therefore, DDiT could be used effectively and conveniently in ordinary homes as well as in high security applications such as in hotels, institutes, and companies.
