USS(Ubiquitous Smart Space) give services, that fit in with customer's goal, by cognizing various situations that happens in a space and cooperating autonomously objects or services in a space. In USS, U-Safety is a system that cognizes more exact situations with multiple sensors in USS, deals with this and take proper actions. When men reason on situations objectively, it is most ideal that image data among collected data with used various sensors in U-Safety. A senter collects a lot of image data from image input devices equipped in various points and work a multiple situation cognition and inference that are based on this. So, senters spend many resources for processing massive data. This paper proposes hierarchical image processing method that does the first situation cognization in image input devices, blocks only points that situation cognization possibility is high among a total image, and transfers to senters. It improves the efficiency of smooth situation cognization by reducing resources that a senter spends on image processing. So, it reduces proportion of image data in U-Safety.

As economic rapid growth, large structures are damaged by defects from design and construction process of the formation and environments. Therefore, safety diagnosis and monitoring skills are bringing importance into relief and legislate for safety diagnosis of large structures. However, the existing monitoring systems are difficult by using wire cable because of cost, error of date, location, revise. In this paper, wireless sensor network which are accelerator, temperature sensor system using ubiquitous had been field test on Sea-Hea Grand bridge. We compare accelerator, temperature sensor system with wire and wireless sensor network.

While the use of large scale underground complex space is increasing currently, this research suggests the methodology of servicing advanced service for civilian and constructing active disaster protection system in order to be free from danger problem of underground complex space by applying new ubiquitous technology. Synchronization between virtual space and real space and construction of ubiquitous disaster protection system arc the core technology. Based on RFID, USN technology, usually, user centered spatial information services are presented. it can be convert to disaster protection system on emergency situation without delay. Through these technology. we can ensure the safety of underground space where the floating population is concentrated in, moreover, utilize for infrastructure that presents various civilian services. Then we can satisfy the increasing civilians desire for safety and welfare and finally, it will contribute to construction of productive city and creation of new conceptual market.

Recently, the korean statistical information service reported that the elder people aged over 65 years take 11 percentage point of all population, indicating that the hyper-elder era will advent shortly. As a result, there are remarkably increasing demands for providing self-organizable home agent system for elder people. Of the home agent system, the ubiquitous home service is known to be useful to overcome this problem. However, current ubiquitous home services limited to provide functional services, and it can be observed that there is lack of consideration for elder-support products which are closely interacted with elder people in the living situation. In this paper, we analyze senior aids products that can be combined to the ubiquitous home service, and propose design procedure for senior aids products that can be applied to self-organizable ubiquitous services. We studied characteristics of elder people, current state of affairs for senior aids products, and home services that are highly required by elder people. Moreover, we observed that the ubiquitous home services related to health, safety, and amenity are urgently needed, and those services can be categorized according to residential areas. Following those observances, we proposed a design principle based on the universal design paradigm to provide self-organizable ubiquitous home service environment for elder people using senior aids products.

Concrete placement work is executed using temporary structures such as formwork, support, etc. The temporary structures could collapse when they are not properly supported, and need to be monitored for structural safety. This paper introduces a USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network)-based monitoring system that are being tested at the Pusan National University for increasing structural safety. The system takes advantage of ubiquitous technologies together with a variety of sensors, which allows for wireless transmission of construction monitoring data. The temporary structures are constantly monitored to find out whether the structures are being supported in a stable condition. A field test is being conducted to acquire data, and use them for evaluating the safety condition of the construction operation.

Nowadays in order to estimate safety diagnosis of bridge, a lot of data like static and dynamic displacement, accelerometer, wind velocity and so on are demanded. When it comes to measure these data, cabled sensor is essential equipment. But cabled sensors have also inefficient factors. From this point of view, considering practical aspects of using these expensive equipments which have been used to examine safety diagnosis, measuring by cabled sensors is restrictive in some respect. Recently to improve theses problems, Wireless sensor system was introduced. But this system can't perform intelligent reaction because database of this system is just based on internet. In this paper, the intelligent bridge safety management model which can be installed easily, measured at all times and dealing intelligently with various situations is developed to improve these problems.

Ubiquitous application is in need of high-level technology to meet various requests for ubiquitous service. In order to adopt ubiquitous technology in not only pilot projects but also regional services, many projects like u-City are implemented in and outside the country. RFID has been known as one of the important technology to provide with core benefits of Ubiquitous services. Because each band of RFID technology has merits and demerits concurrently, single-band RFID system has limitations for various RFID services. Thus, we developed dual-band RFID system enable to provide with 13.56MHz and 2.45GHz RFID service at the same time to compensate the shortage of single-band RFID system. Also we have considered the way that the firmware would control signals without collision, studied battery life and range for tag, and made hardware for dual-band RFID service.

All over the nation, a lot of industrial complex utilize gas as their energy source. Possibilities are fire, explosion, and leakage could happen any time in these large complexes. To prevent these tragic accidents and to minimize the damage when the accident occurs, the development of diagnostic technology for these facilities is imperative. The safety check is conducted on an individual and partial basis, currently. Accordingly, the accumulation and improvement of the safety management technology is necessary in order to make all the different checking techniques and management systems compatible, since checking processes, result interpretation techniques, and subsequent prognoses are not the same. The program provides damage scenarios from gas leakage. The output enables policy makers to predict the degree of infliction. Through this program, engineers are able to design an effective gas safety program to operate and maintain ubiquitous gas facilities.

Ubiquitous computer technology (U technology) is continually, and the trend is moving towards the miniaturization of devices, cost reduction, performance enhancement, and intelligence. It is important to improve fire safety system by the application of advanced IT technologies. In this study, a vulnerable point in fire safety was selected for improvement by U technology. The structure of the whole system and a unit system was were designed. This system is divided into 5 parts: the U-fire protection facility management system, the U-fire safety information system, the U-fire safety education system, the U-fire response system, and the U-wide area fire safety management system. The prototype system was constructed in a real building to confirm the applicability of the system.
