This study examined flow between regions based on the spatial structure of the territory and characterized the flow patterns by analyzing regional networks via transportation connectivity. To accomplish this, transportation connectivity of the entire nation was examined using 2010 national express bus OD data from the Korea Transport Database. After the initial analysis, 2010 car OD data describing networks in seven regions (125 cities and districts), Gangwon-do, Gyeongsangnam-do, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Jeollanam-do, Jeollabuk-do, Chungcheong-do and Seoul, were analyzed to identify transportation connectivity. The results revealed that Korea has strong triangular-belt-shaped transportation connectivity that connects among metropolitan areas in the Jeolla and Gyeongsang areas. Particular zones are set by regional characteristics and functional connectivity for each zone. The results of this study will be useful as a basic material to establish development strategies and customized regional policy development, as well as balanced development.

The goal of this research is to find the difference between F. Gehry's museum architecture's extremely abstract and chaotic space composition and that of other architect's. Gehry's four museum architectures built from late 1980s to 2000 were selected for analysis. Four more museums, built in the same era with the size of that (atypical) museums, were selected for comparative studies. Space Syntax, a quantitative analysis method for spatial configuration, is used to find the characteristics of internal spaces. The Result shows that Gehry's museum architectures' connectivity is 0.375 times bigger and integration is 0.731 times smaller than the compared museums. High connectivity suggests that their visitors could take diverse routes. Low integration implies that their routes are less efficient than the compared museums overall. Their intelligibility is slightly higher than the other museums. This means their visitors have comparatively high understanding of the internal space.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the spacial composition feature of Law School Library and define the feature in spacial planning of law school library. Through the analysis of characteristics in spacial composition, the basic spacial type of law school library will be proposed as a new law school library design. The spatial composition characteristics of Law school Library are as followings. (1) Entry spatial feature for the user accessibility (2) Reference room spatial planning for carrel user (3) Connectivity of educational & research space and reference room space. As the result of design proposal and analyzing the spacial feature, firstly entry common space of library should be planned with reference room space. Secondly, reading room should be linked to the entry level for the user. Lastly, core space should be planned as the vertical connectivity space for the intimately linkage of educational & research space and reference room. And separated accessibility should be considered for direct connection from outdoor space.

In order to revitalize rural areas fundamentally through multifunctional utilization of their resources, it should be necessary to prepare the rational development plan to the areal characteristics and conditions, and the first priority of its planning works should be given to spatial planning. The space syntax method, a powerful objective and quantitative analysis tool on the relationship between social and spatial characteristics, was introduced in this study. Five Comprehensive Rural Clustered Villages Development Areas in the Jeonnam-province were selected as case study areas, of which total area's and included villages' spatial variables were measured and analyzed. Rural villages analyzed in this study have the spatial structure badly systematized and much complicated, which results from low integration and deep spatial depth of them. And, by virtue of relatively many axial lines, there should be few differences between villages in terms of local integration, connectivity and control, while being significant difference in terms of global integration showing the whole areal characteristics. Intelligibility, the correlation coefficient between connectivity(local variable) and integration(global one) is low, which means that the spatial structure of the study areas is difficult for visitors to understand the area or village well. Spatial configuration analysis results in the case study areas showed that each development area has a unique spatial structure and is differentiated in terms of not only local spatial variables but also global spatial variables. Therefore, global and local characteristics should be considered in spatial analysis of development areas.

In Korea, u-City has been constructed as IT-based new city with introduction of the ubiquitous concept. However, most currently provided u-services are just monitoring services based on the USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology, so spatial analysis is insufficient. Especially, buildings have been rapidly constructed and expanded in multi-levels, and people spend a lot of time in indoor space, so indoor spatial analysis is necessary. Therefore, connectivity relationship in indoor space is analyzed using the topological data model. Topological relationships could be redefined due to the dynamic changes of environment in indoor space, and changes could have an effect on analysis results. In this paper, the algorithms of finding isolated zones is developed by analyzing connectivity relationship between space objects in built-environments after changes of environment in indoor space due to specific situation such as fire. And the system that visualizes isolated zones as well as three-dimensional data structure of indoor space is developed to get the analysis result by using the analysis algorithms.

In GIS-based network analysis, topological measure of network structure can be considered as one of important factors in the urban transportation analysis. Related to this measure, it is known that the connectivity indices such as alpha index and gamma index, which mean degree of network connectivity and complexity on a graph or a circuit, provide fundamental information. On the other hand, shimbel index is one of GIS-based spatial metrics to characterize degree of network concentration. However, the approach using these quantitative indices has not been widely used in practical level yet. In this study, an application program, in complied as extension, running on ArcView- GIS is implemented and demonstrated case examples using basic layers such as road centerline and administrative boundary. In this approach, geo-spatial imagery can be effectively used to actual applications to determine the analysis zone, which is composed of networks to extract these indices. As the results of the implementation and the case examples, it is notified that alpha and gamma indices as well as shimbel index can be used as referential data or auxiliary information for urban planning and transportation planning.

Identifying the distribution of species and specific factors related to it is very important because it is habitat conservation that is greatly linked not only to ecological research but also to human health. After all, protecting each one's habitat will protect wildlife and further maintain a healthy ecosystem. Therefore, in this study, data were collected, compared, and analyzed through existing studies and field-oriented surveys. The results of the survey confirmed high species diversity in agricultural areas and forest areas that can reduce moisture supply and moisture loss, and the non-segmental environment, that is, ecological connectivity, was largely influenced by amphibian species diversity. It was confirmed that the non-fragmented environment, that is, ecological connectivity, was greatly affected by amphibian species diversity. In addition, the three factors that affect amphibian survival are: It was identified as the effect of not establishing a buffer space, the effect on the ecological transformation around the habitat during the summer rainy season, and the effect on the disconnected ecological environment.

Brain network analysis has attracted the interest of neuroscience researchers in studying brain diseases. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is especially proper for analyzing functional connectivity due to high temporal and spatial resolution. The application of graph theory for functional connectivity analysis has been studied widely, but research on network modeling for MEG still needs more. Temporal exponential random graph model (TERGM) considers temporal dependencies of networks. We performed the brain network analysis, including static/temporal network statistics, on two groups of epilepsy patients who removed the left (LT) or right (RT) part of the brain and healthy controls. We investigate network differences using Multiset canonical correlation analysis (MCCA) and TERGM between epilepsy patients and healthy controls (HC). The brain network of healthy controls had fewer temporal changes than patient groups. As a result of TERGM, on the simulation networks, LT and RT had less stable state than HC in the network connectivity structure. HC had a stable state of the brain network.

As a result of the current trend towards promoting conservation of the ecosystem, there have been various studies conducted to determine ways to establish an ecological network. The development of analytical methods and an environmental database of GIS has made the creation of this network more efficient. This study focuses on the development of an urban spatial decision support system based on 'Landscape Ecology Theory'. The spatial decision support system suggested in this study consists of four stages. First, landscape patch for the core areas, which are major structures of the ecological network, was determined using the GIS overlay method. Second, a forest habitat was investigated to determine connectivity assessment. Using the gravity model, connectivity assessment at the habitat forest was conducted to select the needed connecting area. Third, the most suitable corridor routes for the eco-network were presented using the least-cost path analysis. Finally, a brief investigation was conducted to determine the conflict areas between the study result and landuse. The results of this study can be applied to urban green network planning. Moreover, the method developed in this study can be utilized to control urban sprawl, promote biodiversity.

Due to the traffic congestion of the city and public transportation-oriented policies in large cities, public transportation is receiving attention and being used increasingly. However, relatively less research on the design and distribution of public transportation network and limitations in quantitative approaches have made implementation and operation practically difficult. Over- or under-supply of transportation routes caused unbalanced connectivity among areas and, thus, differences in time, expenses and metal burden of users traveling the same distances. On the other hand, the Space Syntax theory, originally designed to calculate the connectivity of urban or architectural spaces, helps generate quantitative connectivity of whole space simply based on the spacial structure. This study modified the original Space Syntax algorithm to fit the public transportation problem and showed how it is applied to a transportation network by creating an artificial GIS network.
