The Ant Colony System (ACS) is a variant of Ant colony optimization algorithm which is well-known in Traveling Salesman Problem. This paper proposed a hybrid method based on genetic algorithm (GA) and ant colony system (ACS), called GACS, to solve traffic routing problem. In the GACS, we use genetic algorithm to optimize the ACS parameters that aims to attain the shortest trips and time through new functions to help the ants to update global and local pheromones. Our experiments are performed by the GACS framework which is developed from VANETsim with the ability of real map loading from open street map project, and updating traffic light in real-time. The obtained results show that our framework acquired higher performance than A-Star and classical ACS algorithms in terms of length of the best global tour and the time for trip.

Information on the energy consumption of buildings that can be obtained through conventional methods is limited. Therefore, this study aims to develop a model that can support decision making about building facility management through digital transformation technologies. Through the IoT sensor, the building's energy data and indoor air quality data are collected, and the monitored data is visualized through the ELK Stack and produced as a dashboard. In addition, the target building is photographed with a 360-degree camera and maps using a tool to create a 360-degree tour. Using such digital transformation technologies, users of buildings can obtain various information in real time without visiting buildings directly. This can lead to changes in actions or actions for building management, supporting facility management decisions, and consequently reducing building energy consumption.

Hydrogen is eco-friendly alternative energy source and the photoelectrochemical water splitting is believed to be one of the promising methods for hydrogen production. Many researchers have studied several potential photocatalysts to increase the photoelectochemical performance efficiency for hydrogen conversion. In this study, the GO (graphene oxide) was prepared by Tour's method and was dispersed in precursor solutions of $WO_3$ and $BiVO_4$. Those precursor solutions were spin-coated on FTO glass and several photocatalyst thin films of $WO_3$, $BiVO_4$ and $WO_3/BiVO_4$ were prepared by calcination. The morphologies of prepared photocatalyst thin films were measured by scanning electron microscope. The photoelectrochemical performances of photocatalyst thin films with rGO (reduced graphene oxide) and without rGO were analyzed systematically.

Foreign tourists who are visiting Korea urban tourism destination have been continuedly growing and more various tourism products and service are requested to fit those foreign tourists' needs and wants. Accordingly, tourism contents and its satisfaction in urban tourism destination have been developing to provide more valuable products and service to tourists. This study was conducted to segment foreign tourists based on 4 different tourism urban destination contents, including destination facility contents, leisure entertainment contents, shopping contents, accommodation contents. Cluster analysis provided four different groups based on the mean score of urban tourism destination contents. MANOVA was conducted to identify whether ot not there are differences among the segmented groups in terms of travel performances and destination loyalty, Chi-square analysis were also conducted to see if there are differences among the segmented groups based on demographic informations. Theoretical and practical implication were discussed in the conclusion section. The results of this study would be helpful for tourism products planners and developers.

The purposes of this study were to provide basic visitor information for effective park management and to understand visitors' perception about the interpretive media which is utilized as a self-guide environmental interpretation in Weolchusan National Park. To accomplish the purposes of study, a questionnaire survey was chosen and the 196 valid samples among them were analyzed. Among who used the interpretive media, the largest proportion used the information board of park use-resources, and the usage rate of interpretive label of woody plant, interpretive sign of cultural asset, and self-guide tour were shown to be relatively high. However, the park brochures(map), bulletin boards, park web sites, LED sign, and visitor center exhibits were evaluated that use efficiency was low. In the analysis of importance-performance, visitors were perceiving the importance of all form of interpretive media greatly. The performance of interpretive media was also evaluated as affirmative.

Background: Golf is a popular sport involving overhead activity and engagement of the rotator cuff (RC). This study aimed to determine to what level golfers were able to return to golf following RC repair, the barriers to them returning to golf and factors associated with their failure to return to golf. Methods: Patients preoperatively identifying as golfers undergoing RC repair at the study centre from 2012 to 2020 were retrospectively followed up with to assess their golf-playing status, performance and frequency of play and functional and quality of life (QoL) outcomes. Results: Forty-seven golfers (40 men [85.1%] and 7 women [14.9%]) with a mean age of 56.8 years met the inclusion criteria, and 80.1% were followed up with at a mean of 27.1 months postoperatively. Twenty-nine patients (76.3%) had returned to golf with a mean handicap change of +1.0 (P=0.291). Golf frequency decreased from a mean of 1.8 rounds per week preinjury to 1.5 rounds per week postoperatively (P=0.052). The EuroQol 5-dimension 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) index and visual analog scale (EQ-VAS) score were significantly greater in those returning to golf (P=0.024 and P=0.002), although functional outcome measures were not significantly different. The primary barriers to return were ipsilateral shoulder dysfunction (78%) and loss of the habit of play (22%). Conclusions: Golfers were likely (76%) to return to golf following RC repair, including mostly to their premorbid performance level with little residual symptomatology. Return to golf was associated with a greater QoL. Persistent subjective shoulder dysfunction (78%) was the most common barrier to returning to golf.

The team orienteering problem (TOP) or the multiple tour maximum collection problem can be considered as a generic model that can be applied to a number of challenging applications in logistics, tourism, and other fields. This problem is generally defined as the problem of determining P paths, in which the traveling time of each path is limited by $T_{max}$ that maximizes the total collected score. In the TOP, a set of N vertices i is given, each with a score $S_i$. The starting point (vertex 1) and the end point (vertex N) of all paths are fixed. The time $t_{ij}$ needed to travel from vertex i to j is known for all vertices. Some exact and heuristics approaches had been proposed in the past for solving the TOP. This paper proposes a new solution methodology for solving the TOP using the particle swarm optimization, especially by proposing a solution representation and its decoding method. The performance of the proposed algorithm is then evaluated using several benchmark datasets for the TOP. The computational results show that the proposed algorithm using specific settings is capable of finding good solution for the corresponding TOP instance.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to know sports injury aspects and relationship between exercise stress, tension, exercise habits and sports injuries. Methods : We surveyed 42 professional golf players who attended Korea Tour during the second half of the year 2010 and have sports injuries with self - assessment questionnaires. Results : According to the types, they had myalgia, tendonitis, ligament sprain in the order. According to the body parts, they had injuries in right thoracic, left cervical, left shoulder region in the order. As a result of the analysis of the sports injury frequency according to the exercise stress and tension, there were no significant differences between the high and low level group. But result of injury regions showed high tension level group showed more damages in right thoracic region (p<0.05). Exercise habits appear subjects had lots of training time, however, they used to skip the muscular strengthening exercise during the on season, but had no significant difference between sports injury frequencies and exercise habit. Conclusion : For the improvement of the athletic performance and prevention of the sports injury, warming-up, cooling-down and muscular strengthening exercise program developments are needed.

Adopting mobile chargers (MC) in rechargeable wireless sensors network (R-WSN) to recharge sensors can increase network efficiency (e.g., reduce MC travel distance per tour, reduce MC effort, and prolong WSN lifetime). In this study, we propose a mechanism to split the sensing field into partitions that may be equally spaced but differ in distance to the base station. Moreover, we focus on minimizing the MC effort by providing a new charging mechanism called the sector-based charging schedule (SBCS), which works to dispatch the MC in charging trips to the sector that sends many charging requests and suggesting an efficient sensor-charging algorithm. Specifically, we first utilize the high ability of the BS to divide the R-WSN field into sectors then it select the cluster head for each sector to reduce the intra-node communication. Second, we formulate the charging productivity as NP-hard problem and then conduct experimental simulations to evaluate the performance of the proposed mechanism. An extensive comparison is performed with other mechanisms. Experimental results demonstrate that the SBCS mechanism can prolong the lifetime of R-WSNs by increasing the charging productivity about 20% and reducing the MC effort by about 30%.
