  • In this study, an optimization technique was developed from the application of allocation rule. The results obtained from the water supply analysis and reliability indices analysis of Andong dam and Imha dam which are consist of parallel reservoir system are summarized as the followings; Allocation rule(C) is effective technique at the parallel reservoir system because results of the water supply analysis, storage analysis and reliability indices analysis is calculated reasonable results. Also, reliability indices analysis results are not sufficient occurrence based reliability or quantity based reliability. Thus reliability indices analysis are need as occurrence based reliability, quantity based reliability vulnerability, resilience, average water supply deficits and average storage. And water supply condition is better varying water supply condition than constant water supply condition.

  • As the frequency of drought due to climate change is increasing and the severity of drought becomes severe, it is urgent to prepare measures against extreme drought. Despite the significant impacts of drought on the coupled human-environment system, we have not fully understood the consequences of extreme droughts affecting all parts of the environment and our communities, and there is no system to assess environmental droughts quantitatively. Even if a drought disaster occurs on the same scale, the severity of the drought depends on the vulnerability of the region. Therefore, this study proposes environmental drought assessment based on water quality vulnerability to extreme drought for the resilient proactive response.

  • The seamless integration of the architecture and structure of a tall building plays a key role in establishing a recognizable and iconic design. The structural system developed for Shenzhen Rural Commercial Bank Headquarters (SRCBH) utilizes enhanced structural innovations unique to the tower's geometry to improve structural and sustainability performance. SRCBH utilizes a steel diagrid system pulled outside of the enclosure line with diaphragm forces resolved primarily by corner diagonal beams. During the design process the structural systems underwent performance based design and optimization for wind and seismic loading. Resiliency was prioritized for structural design as well as fire resistance. More closely integrating the structure of a building with its architecture and sustainability goals can lead to unique and innovative towers with a timeless expression.

  • For nearly four decades, Ugandans have experienced a period marked by hope, conflict, and resilience across various aspects of healthcare reform. The health insurance system in Uganda lacks a legal framework and does not extend benefits to the entire population. In Uganda, community-based health insurance is common among those in the informal sector, while private medical insurance is typically provided to employees by their workplaces and agencies. The National Health Insurance Scheme Bill, introduced in 2019, was passed in 2021. If the President of Uganda gives his assent to the National Health Insurance Bill, it will become a significant policy driving health and universal health coverage. However, this bill is not without its shortcomings. In this perspective, we aim to explore the complex interplay of challenges and opportunities facing Uganda's health sector.

  • This study assumes that the smooth school life of adolescents from multicultural families is recognized as an important part of multicultural support policies and practices as a basis for realizing an integrated society, and system elements that are meaningful for their flexibility to adapt to school (individuals, families, schools) By empirically analyzing the effect of, we tried to bring out highly effective implications for the composition of a multidimensional practice system. Therefore, this study is a causal model in which self-identity (individual factor) and parental parenting attitude (family factor), which are important variables for each system level, are set as independent variables, and school support (school factor) consisting of teacher support and companion support is set as control variables. After collecting data through a questionnaire survey by interviews with 162 middle and high school students in Gyeonggi and Gangwon regions, the effect was analyzed through multiple regression analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that school support has a very important static moderating effect in the positive (+) effect of adolescents' self-identity and parenting attitude on school adaptability. It was confirmed that the modulating effect is relatively more important.

  • In many sensor network applications, sensor nodes are deployed in open environments, and hence are vulnerable to physical attacks, potentially compromising the node's cryptographic keys. False sensing report can be injected through compromised nodes, which can lead to not only false alarms but also the depletion of limited energy resource in battery powered networks. Fan Ye et al. proposed that statistical en-route filtering scheme(SEF) can do verify the false report during the forwarding process. In this scheme, the choice of a partition value represents a trade off between resilience and energy where the partition value is the total number of partitions which global key pool is divided. If every partition are compromised by an adversary, SEF disables the filtering capability. Also, when an adversary has compromised a very small portion of keys in every partition, the remaining uncompromised keys which take a large portion of the total cannot be used to filter false reports. We propose a fuzzy-based adaptive partitioning method in which a global key pool is adaptively divided into multiple partitions by a fuzzy rule-based system. The fuzzy logic determines a partition value by considering the number of compromised partitions, the energy and density of all nodes. The fuzzy based partition value can conserve energy, while it provides sufficient resilience.

  • Cyber attacks targeting critical infrastructure are on the rise. Critical infrastructure is defined as core infrastructures within a country with a high degree of interdependence between the different structures; therefore, it is difficult to sufficiently protect it using outdated cybersecurity techniques. In particular, the distinction between the physical and logical risks of critical infrastructure is becoming ambiguous; therefore, risk management from a comprehensive perspective must be implemented. Accordingly, as a means of further actively protecting critical infrastructure, major countries have begun to apply their security and cybersecurity systems by design, as a more expanded concept is now being considered. This proactive security approach (CSbD, Cybersecurity by Design) includes not only securing the stability of software (SW) safety design and management, but also physical politics and device (HW) safety, precautionary and blocking measures, and overall resilience. It involves a comprehensive security system. Therefore, this study compares and analyzes security by design measures towards critical infrastructure that are leading the way in the US, Europe, and Singapore. It reflects the results of an analysis of optimal cybersecurity solutions for critical infrastructure. I would like to present a plan for applying by Design.

  • Recently, water resources and energy policies such as integrated water management and carbon neutrality are changing rapidly. There is an opinion that the value of hydropower reservoirs related to these policies should be re-evaluated. In the past, they have contributed to flood control in addition to electricity generation, such as operating at a limited water level during the flood season, but loss of power generation is inevitable with this operation. Therefore, this study introduced the concept of resilience to the hydropower generation system to minimize the power loss. A framework for evaluating the power generation performance of them was presented by defining the maximization of electricity sales as performance. Based on the current procedure of multiple operation plan, a scenario was established and simulation was performed using HEC-5. As a result of applying to the framework, it was confirmed that the power generation performance according to each scenario was evaluated as an important factor. And it was confirmed that the performance of flood control and water use could also be evaluated.

  • In accelerating the industrialization, human being have been frequently experiencing man-made crisis such as technology failures, financial problem as well as natural disaster. Emergency management system based on international standard can provide an organization with a framework for continual improvement to increase the possibility of enhancing anticipation, prevention and response as well. In this paper, we introduced the emergency management system design of various organizations for societal security network. In the first, the main role of ISO/TC223 is reviewed and then, current issues of under going standardization in ISO are also addressed. Finally, we have designed a efficient disaster prevention system to minimize the potential risk as well as to improve the organizational resilience.
