This paper analyzes the fairness and efficiency of channel sharing when heterogeneous wireless networks that have different transmission power and/or coverage coexist with the contention-based channel access protocol. First, we show that the existing CSMA (carrier sensing multiple access) protocol, that is a prevailing contention-based mechanism, results in significant unfairness of channel access because of (1) the asymmetric capability of carrier sensing and (2) the blindness of binary exponential backoff and link adaptation mechanisms to the interference-driven transmission failures. Next, we derive the feasible region of carrier sensing thresholds that assures spatial reuse and fair channel sharing simultaneously. Moreover, we establish an analytical model for per-system throughput and investigate the effect of contention window size and transmission rate on the fairness and efficiency of channel sharing. Finally, we compare the performance of several approaches for fair channel sharing via simulations under various network configurations.

Due to the variety of tourist attractions, many people of the world are visiting annually in Mediterranean area. In this paper, we analyze Mediterranean tourism impact by specific events such as the Arab Spring. In details, we make several density maps based on the position and time information of the geo-tagged photos extracted from Panoramio which is a representative photo sharing website. These density maps should be used to analyze how can specific events affect on Mediterranean tourism. To do this, first, a spatial database is constructed using geo-tag and time information of photo data extracted from Panoramio. Using GIS tool, then, several density maps are produced after performing density process based on spatial databases. Based on these density maps, finally, we analyze visually on Mediterranean tourism impact according to before, progress, and after of the Arab Spring.

This study diagnoses the maturity level of local government's spatial information policy in the face of the digital transformation period. To this end, by using the stratification (AHP) analysis technique, for the spatial information expert group, the importance evaluation is performed along with the selection of measurement indicators of the level of spatial informatization. First, the current status and indicators in terms of spatial information policies of local governments are studied through theoretical considerations. In addition, by examining previous studies, differentiation from this study is presented. In this study, 3 indicators and 18 detailed items of spatial informatization level evaluation indicators could be selected. As a result of the evaluation, the overall importance ranking for the measurement index was 0.125 (12.5%) for the establishment and utilizations of GIS Systems provided by local governments, 0.109 (10.9%) for the quality management of basic spatial information, 0.107 (10.7%) for the establishment and utilization of its own spatial information. 0.073 (7.3%) for the collaboration and sharing within the institution, 0.071 (7.1%) for the operation of education and support system on spatial information, 0.065 (6.5%) for the securing a dedicated organization and professional human resources, and interest at the institutional level were derived in the order of 0.053 (5.3%). The results of this study are expected to be usefully utilized as basic data to evaluate the level of spatial information policies promoted by local governments. In addition, if the local government's spatial information policy is pursued centering on the major indicators derived from the study, it is expected that efficient policy operation will be possible.

In this paper, a semi-automated mapping system, which can produ¬ce digital maps by using information acquired from pre-processing procedure, was introduced. To get a binary edge image, which is very important in vectori¬zation process, we applied adaptive smoothing and connection preserving thresho¬Iding algorithm. In mapper program, binary images are converted to vectors and for in-core data structure, extended PR quad tree was used. These procedures are dispatched to personal computers and workstations and through network resource sharing, the whole process was unified and simplified.

Nowadays the development of mobile systems occupies significant part of our life, and users using mobile phones are demanding the utilization of differentiated spatial information. A study on application which provides information according to individual location information such as mobile advertisement is conducted for the location-based mobile service. In order to allow mobile phone users to share information based on local information, this paper proposes a mobile sharing system which combines social networks and location-based service to provide efficient information based on location information in mobile phones. The application can be provided with information associated with its location when the mobile phone user arrives at a specific location. Another proposed method focuses on providing more appropriate services for individual situations compared to other applications, and can contribute to expanding social networking functions to facilitate information sharing among users.

The purpose of this paper is to study a scheme to ITS service which enables the data (spatial, non-spatial and image) sharing among heterogeneous system (various environment) with employing the concept of object orientedness and to show Location Reference Technique of ITS Space DB for interoperability. Data warehouse service, query object service, interface object service, and naming object service have been identified for this. In addition, a metadata management object service and persistent object service based system framework has been devised. The proposed skeletal framework would be expected to be functioning well for ITS data sharing environment and for the interoperability support.

Recently central and local governments developed a huge spatial database and system using full-scale Geographic Information System (GIS). But Inconsistent spatial data through duplicated database management drops off in efficiency and confidence of administration. It is difficult to share data because of their unique system and data type. Under these circumstances Ministry of Construction and Transportation (MOCT) has been carrying out Land Management Information System (LMIS) to computerize land administration and policy affairs and to implement land database such as law, spatial, attribute data. A prerequisite mission of LMIS is to develop open system for solving the problem of duplicated data management and data sharing and for supporting various computer environments such as hardware, software, network etc. The purpose of LMIS is to reuse the existing investment resources and to expand the existing system resources. Therefore the purpose of this study is to investigate a method of LMIS operation under the existing circumstances and expansion of the system in the future. To do this, Supporting various DBMS, GIS server, Distributing Computing Platform(Unix, NT Server) is needed. Especially LMIS need to be developed as open system with interoperability to get independence of application from various GIS servers.

Geographic Information Systems(GISs) generally use a very large amount of spatial data. and are implemented on various software and hardware system. If it is impossible to exchange the spatial data efficiently among the different hardware, software, and operation systems, data sharing will be very difficult and duplicated storage & management of the spatial data will result in a great economic loss. To solve such problems, a national organization established a national standard for GIS and constructed spatial databases at the national level. In Korea, SDTS(Spatial Data Transfer Standard) is selected as a national standard for the common data transfer format. In this paper, we design and implement a SDTS Data Management System which can support display, insertion, update, deletion of SDTS data, extraction and creation of a specified area, error checking and reporting, setting and verification of a SDTS profile through the GUI (Graphic User Interface) environment. Hereafter, as GIS industry is continually activated and a demand for the SDTS data increases, a requirement for analysis and trust of the SDTS data will grow bigger, so the necessity of the SDTS Data Management System developed in this paper will also grow rapidly.

This paper reviews the strategy of activating spatial data community and its impacts, focusing on the Cooperative Agreements Program(CAP) of National Spatial Data Infrastructure(NSDI), established by Federal Geographic Data Committee(FGDC) in U.S. to facilitate cooperative data sharing. After thoroughly reviewing the 20 research categories followed by 350 cases, supported by CAP for the last decade, it turned out that since NSDI issued "Future Directions Initiative" in 2004, the CAP adopted all components of NSDI as CAP categories in attempting to reinforce the partnership rather than mainly deploying standardized meta-data. Also, CAP has been utilized as a means to enforce the role of NSDI as spatial data user and provider as well, recognizing that the spatial data community is essence for expandable and sustainable NSDI. Implementing CAP resulted in the sound structure of spatial data marketplaces increasing spatial data demand and promoting the relevant business due to diverse users.

As the growth of performance of the computer and the development of the Internet are exponential, sharing and using the information illegally have also increased to the same proportion. In this paper, we proposed a novel method on the vector map data among digital contents. Vector map data are used for GIS, navigation and web-based services etc. We embedded watermark into the coordinate of the vector map data using bit operation and extracted the watermark. This method helps to protect the copyright of the vector map data. This watermarking method is a spatial domain method and it embeds the watermark within an allowable error. Our experiment shows that the watermark produced by this method is resistant to simplification and translation.
