해상에서로 발생하는 대형 해양사고는 소중한 인명손상과 재산상의 손실 및 심각한 해양환경 오염피해를 유발하고 있다. IMO에서는 해양사고발생으로 인한 2차적인 해양환경오염피해 유발우려가 있는 선박을 적절히 이동시켜 잠재적인 해양사고 발생가능성 및 피해를 최소화하기 위한 적절한 장소(피난처)에 대한 논의가 활발하게 전개되고 있는 상황이다. 우리나라는 북태평양을 중심으로 아시아지역과 북미를 연결하는 주요 통항로에 위치하여 선박 통항량이 많기 때문에 외국적 조난선박에 의한 해양사고 발생가능성이 높으며, 또한 국내 항에서 발생하는 해양사고에서도 선박의 이동이 필요한 경우 안전한 장소로 이동시켜 해양사고로 인한 2차 피해를 최소화 할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 선박피난처 지정에 대한 외국사례를 검토 분석하여 효율적이고 합리적인 국내 피난처 도입방안을 마련하고자 하였다.

본 논문의 안전운행 보상시스템은 안전운전을 수행한 차량운전자에게 직접적인 보상을 제공하여 안전운전의 동기를 부여하고 적극적 참여를 유도함으로써 사고의 발생을 줄여 생명과 재산의 손실을 줄이는데 목표가 있다. 기존의 디지털 운행기록계의 경우 차량의 운전상태를 기록만 하였으나, 안전운전보상시스템은 사고예방 효과를 높이기 위한 지원책으로서 안전운전을 수행한 경우 금전적 보상을 통해 위험운전을 피하고 안전운전을 하도록 유도하였다. 즉, 과속으로 인한 사고 발생 빈도가 높은 지역에서는 속도 준수, 또는 차 간 거리 유지, 지정차로 운행 등의 안전운행 지시를 수행한 경우 직접적인 보상을 제공함으로써 안전운전 동기를 부여하여 교통사고를 예방하고자 한다. 이러한 안전운행 데이터와 보상내용은 투명하고 안전하게 관리되어야 하므로 보상근거와 보상내용을 폐쇄형 블록체인 하이퍼레저 패브릭을 이용하여 구축하였다. 그러나 블록체인 시스템은 투명성과 안전성이 보장되는 반면에 낮은 데이터 처리속도가 문제가 되므로 이를 개선하고자 블록생성 가속 기능을 구현하였다. 본 연구에서는 순차적으로 블록을 생성하는 속도가 10TPS(Transaction per second) 내외의 낮은 속도를 나타내어, 블록의 생성속도를 높이기 위해 가속 기능을 적용한 결과 1,000TPS 이상의 고성능 네트워크를 구현하였다.

최근 국제적으로 풍력, 태양광, 파도, 연료전지 등의 친환경 신재생에너지 개발이 활발하다. 특히, 해상에서의 풍력발전단지 개발은 대형화를 통한 단가 절감, 고품질의 풍력자원 활용, 발전기로 인한 소음 피해 최소화를 위해 해안에서 멀리 떨어진 위치에 대규모 부유식으로 건설되는 추세이다. 풍력발전단지의 개발은 해사안전법에 의한 해상교통안전진단제도에 따른 평가가 필요하다. 풍력발전단지의 평가는 해당 수역의 체계적인 개발, 관리, 활용을 위해 선과 면적 개념을 모두 적용하여 수행되어야 하며, 이를 위한 평가 방법과 기준이 개발되어야 한다. 이 연구에서는 해상풍력발전단지처럼 해양 공간을 평가할 수 있는 해상교통조사방법과 평가에 대한 적절한 기준을 수립하고, 이를 시스템적으로 처리할 수 있는 방안에 대해서 연구하였다. 먼저 해상교통조사를 위해 AIS와 레이더를 이용한 이동식 해상교통데이터 수집장치를 설계하였다. 그리고 선과 면적의 개념을 모두 적용한 해상교통 항적도, 밀집도, 경로 분석을 제안하였다. 해상교통밀집도는 Grid-cell의 크기를 조절하여 단위 cell에 대한 공간적, 시간적 점유율을 구분하고 해상교통 경로 분석은 해상을 통항로 또는 작업 공간으로 사용할 때를 구분하여 선박의 이동 패턴을 평가할 수 있도록 제안하였다. 최종적으로 시스템적인 해상교통데이터의 수집과 평가가 가능한 해상교통안전평가솔루션의 개념설계를 수행하였다. 이는 자동적인 해상교통데이터의 수집 저장 분류를 통해, 데이터 누락이나 오표기와 같은 인적 오류를 최소화하고 해상 공간의 용도에 따라 선과 면적 개념을 반영하여 분석함으로써 신뢰성 있는 해상 공간의 평가가 가능하게 한다.

In the study of the mechanism of labor motivation as a determinant of economic security of the enterprise in competitive conditions, it was found that motivation is determinant in creating the conditions for production and ensuring the active functioning of the enterprise. It is substantiated that the motivational mechanism is the presence of a system of levers, incentives, measures and other elements for economic and administrative incentives for employees, which are used for incentives to work, increase productivity and safety, and more. The motivational mechanism plays an important role in ensuring the economic security of the enterprise and at the same time is a lever to increase competitiveness in the market. The functions of the mechanism of labor motivation are singled out, among which: explanatory-substantiating, regulative, communicative, socialization, regulating. The stages of occurrence of the motive for the employee are classified. The interrelation of motives and incentives in the mechanism of labor motivation as determinants of economic security of the enterprise in competitive conditions is proved. It is proved that the mechanism of labor motivation as a determinant of economic security of the enterprise in competitive conditions should be aimed at: assistance in forming and achieving goals and objectives of the enterprise and achieving balance and equilibrium of economic goals and social responsibility of the enterprise; ensuring close cooperation between management and employees of the enterprise; focus on building a flexible mechanism; transition to a democratic style of governance and involvement of employees in decision-making.

A maltogenic amylase gene from Lactobacillus gasseri ATCC33323 (LGMA) was expressed in Lactococcus lactis MG1363 using the P170 expression system. The successful production of recombinant LGMA (rLGMA) was confirmed by the catalytic activity of the enzyme in liquid and solid media. The N-terminal amino acid sequencing analysis of the rLGMA showed that it was Met-Gln-Leu-Ala-Ala-Leu-, which was the same as that of genuine protein, meaning the signal peptide was efficiently cleaved during secretion to the extracellular milieu. The optimal reaction temperature and pH of rLGMA ($55^{\circ}C$ and pH 5, respectively) and enzymatic hydrolysis patterns on various substrates (${\beta}$-cyclodextrin, starch, and pullulan) supported that rLGMA was not only efficiently secreted from the Lactococcus lactis MG1363 but was also functionally active. Finally, the branched maltooligosaccharides were effectively produced from liquefied com starch, by using rLGMA secreted from Lactococcus lactis, with a yield of 53.1%.

Damage and attack size of cyber terror is growing to the national size. Not only targeting at a certain companies or individuals but number of cyber terror targeting government bodies or unspecific people is increasing. This is because compared to traditional weapon, input cost is very cheap but ripple effect and shock are much stronger, affecting not only certain groups but also each individuals. 'Anti-terror measurement for protection of nation and public safety' passed last month is one of the renowned measurement passed regardless of objection from opposition party. The opposition party went against this through filibuster for 192 hours but this finally passed National Congress due to lack of oppositions. Korean government is taking post actions after passage of anti-terror measurement. Legislation of enforcement ordinance and regulations is due by 6th of next month. This regulation will be executed from June 4th after legislation. Whenever there is any security issues such as hacking of Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power and National Intelligence Service happens, lot of attention is made to those hackers. However, social recognition or management of those hackers need lot more improvement. Especially, as market of internet of things is increasing, there is an increased anxiety on information security. But as we only rely on security solutions, this problems are keep happening. Therefore, active investment on nurturing hackers who play the role of 'spear and shield' shall be made. Government should put more efforts to allow white hackers to show their abilities. We should have a policy for supporting high-quality programs such as BoB. To make information protection industry into future growth engine, it is necessary to nurture professionals for information protection and white hackers through special programs. Politicians should make related regulations as soon as possible to remove factors that prevent swift management of cyber attack due to lack of legislation. Government should pay lot more financial investment to nurturing professional manpower than now. Protecting life and asset of nation is responsibility and duty of our government. We all should recognize that controlling cyber attack is a part of national defense.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) gradually becomes a technique for ensuring the health and safety of civil infrastructures and is also an important approach for the research of the damage accumulation and disaster evolving characteristics of civil infrastructures. It is attracting prodigious research interests and the active development interests of scientists and engineers because a great number of civil infrastructures are planned and built every year in mainland China. In a SHM system the sheer number of accompanying wires, fiber optic cables, and other physical transmission medium is usually prohibitive, particularly for such structures as offshore platforms and long-span structures. Fortunately, with recent advances in technologies in sensing, wireless communication, and micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS), wireless sensor technique has been developing rapidly and is being used gradually in the SHM of civil engineering structures. In this paper, some recent advances in the research, development, and implementation of wireless sensors for the SHM of civil infrastructures in mainland China, especially in Dalian University of Technology (DUT) and Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), are introduced. Firstly, a kind of wireless digital acceleration sensors for structural global monitoring is designed and validated in an offshore structure model. Secondly, wireless inclination sensor systems based on Frequency-hopping techniques are developed and applied successfully to swing monitoring of large-scale hook structures. Thirdly, wireless acquisition systems integrating with different sensing materials, such as Polyvinylidene Fluoride(PVDF), strain gauge, piezoresistive stress/strain sensors fabricated by using the nickel powder-filled cement-based composite, are proposed for structural local monitoring, and validating the characteristics of the above materials. Finally, solutions to the key problem of finite energy for wireless sensors networks are discussed, with future works also being introduced, for example, the wireless sensor networks powered by corrosion signal for corrosion monitoring and rapid diagnosis for large structures.

Research in the cytokine field has grown exponentially in recent years, and the validity of such studies relies heavily on the appropriate measurement of levels of cytokines in various biological samples. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-$\beta$, a hormonally active polypeptide found in normal and transformed tissue, is a potent regulator of cell growth and differentiation. The most widely used bioassay for TGF-$\beta$ is the inhibition of the proliferation of mink lung epithelial cells. Though detection of [$^3$H]thymidine incorporation is more sensitive than the MTT assay, it presents some disadvantages due to the safety and disposal problems associated with radioisotopes. In this study, we attempted to ascertain the experimental conditions which could be used for measuring the in vitro biological activity of TGF-$\beta$ in a safer and more sensitive way compared with the currently available methods. We compared the commonly used method, the MTT assay, to the XTT assay using different parameters including cell number, incubation time and the wave length used for detecting the product. We examined the anti-proliferative activities of TGF-$\beta$ in three different cell lines: Mv-1-Lu mink lung epithelial cells, MCF10A human breast epithelial cells and H-ras-transformed MCF10A cells. Herein, we present an experimental protocol which provides the most sensitive method of quantifying the biological activity of TGF-$\beta$, with a detection limit of as low as 10 pg/ml: Mv-1-Lu or H-ras MCF10A cells ($1{\times}10^5/well$) were incubated with TGF-$\beta$ at $37^{\circ}C$ in a humidified $CO_2$ incubator for 24 hr followed by XTT treatment and determination of absorbance at 450 or 490 nm. Our results may contribute to the establishment of an in vitro bioassay system, which could be used for the satisfactory quantitation of TGF-$\beta$.

The local heat transfer coefficient is experimentally investigated for the reflux condensation in a countercurrent flow between the steam-air mixture and the condensate, A single vertical tube has a geometry which is a length of 2.4m, inner diameter of 16.56mm and outer diameter of 19.05mm and is made of stainless steel. Air is used as a noncondensible gas. The secondary side has a shape of annulus around vertical tube and the lost heat by primary condensation is transferred to the coolant water. The local temperatures are measured at 11 locations in the vertical direction and each location has 3 measurement points in the radial direction, which are installed at the tube center, at the outer wall and at the coolant side. In three different pressures, the 27 sets of data are obtained in the range of inlet steam flow rate 1.348∼3.282kg/hr, of inlet air mass fraction 11.8∼55.0%. The investigation of the flooding is preceded to find the upper limit of the reflux condensation. Onset of flooding is lower than that of Wallis' correlation. The local heat transfer coefficient increases as the increase of inlet steam flow rate and decreases as the increase of inlet air mass fraction. As an increase of the system pressure, the active condensing region is contracted and the heat transfer capability in this region is magnified. The empirical correlation is developed by 165 data of the local heat transfer. As a result, the Jacob number and film Reynolds number are dominant parameters to govern the local heat transfer coefficient. The rms error is 17.7% between the results by the experiment and by the correlation.

We evaluated the inappropriateness of metformin use in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic medical conditions to identify the frequency of the prescription metformin in violation of the food and drug administration (FDA) black box warning. We reviewed medical records of 307 outpatients who received metformin at endocrinology department in a hospital setting between January 1, 2005 and August 30, 2009. Of the 307 outpatients, 25 discontinued treatment of metformin due to elevated serum creatinine level (Scr${\geq}$1.5 mg/dl in male, Scr${\geq}$1.4 mg/dl in female), cancers, and/or liver disease. 5 were lost to follow-up. 89 (29.0%) of the patients had cardiovascular disease, 54.1% for hypertension, 9.8% for liver disease, and 60 (20.8%) for chronic kidney disease. 12 patients (3.9%) with chronic kidney disease and/or elevated serum creatinine level, and 1 patient (0.3%) with lactic acidosis were contraindicated to metformin use. Metformin should be avoided in 7 outpatients (2.3%) with active hepatitis and 1 patient (2.6%) with liver cirrhosis. Of the 307 outpatients, 13 (4.2%) patients who received metformin at the first visit and 16 (8.7%) patients who received metformin at the last visit violated to black box warning. 8 (2.6%) of the patients were in precautionary conditions to metformin use. Adjusted mean difference of serum creatinine was -0.16 mg/dl [95% CI: -0.22 to -0.11 (p<0.05)] and adjusted mean difference of alanine aminotransferase was 4.46 IU/l [95% CI: 2.47 to 6.44 (p<0.05)] between the first visit and the last visit. Critical number of elderly patients who are at the high risks of drug-disease and drug-laboratory interaction is exposed to the inappropriate metformin use in violation of black box warning. The periodic evaluation of metformin use and monitoring prescription through drug utility review (DUR) system is needed to improve patients' safety and to reduce adverse drug events.
