The extensive use of composite insulators for transmission lines can ultimately be justified only on long-term qualification tests. The actual load working on the insulator in the field is not static load but cyclic load. So in this paper, we discussed an examination of aging degradation by mechanical performance of composite insulators under static tension load and cyclic tension load. and also described useful approaches for analyzing their long term performance so as to develop reliable composite insulators. The static and cyclic tension load-time test data were examined by Weibull distribution for their capability of presuming long term performance. It was found that cyclic tension loads were more severe than static tension loads. The results also indicate that it may be relevant for an user to select composite insulators on basis of their performance under cyclic tension loads than static tension loads.

The CRT monitor display system for SONAR signal that are commonly used in ships or naval vessels uses vector scanning method. Therefore the processing circuits of the system are complex. Also the purchase of parts is difficult as well as high-cost because the production had been shut down. FPGA-based embedded system is flexible to various digital applications because it can be able to simplify processing circuits and to make a easy customized design for end user, and it provides low-cost high-speed performance. In this paper, we describe an implementation of FPGA embedded system for real-time SONAR signal display using the triple buffering method to overcome some weakness of existing CRT system. Our system provides real-time acquisition and display capability of SONAR signal, and removes afterimage effect that is a critical problem of the system proposed in the preceding study.

In this paper, to prevent accidents of school vehicles used by students, which have emerged as a continuous social problem, a boarding and leaving notification system using Bluetooth beacons is proposed. The platform structure uses Bluetooth, a smartphone, and an application, and provides real-time message reception between parents and teachers. It is not simply a system with Bluetooth capability alone, but also an IcT technology that is closely related to real life using two-way communication. The purpose is to provide user-friendly ICT technology as an integrated system for more practical effects. Two-way exchange of information between parents and teachers using cloud servers is made possible. By using this Bluetooth beacon notification system, safety accidents in student vehicles are reduced, which brings confidence from traffic accidents to schoolchildren of parents and teachers. Therefore, it is expected that parents and teachers are expected to improve their mental stability and quality of life from traffic accidents.

An intelligent service robot is a robot that monitors its surroundings, and then provides a service to meet a user's goal. It is normally impossible for a robot to anticipate all the needs of its user and various situations in the surroundings ahead, and to prepare for all the necessary functions to cope with them. Therefore, it is required to support the self-growing capability by which robots can extend their functionality based on users' needs and external conditions. In this paper, as an enabler of the self-growing capability, we propose a method that allows a robot to select a component-composition pattern represented in an architectural form (called a sub-architecture), and to extend its functionality by obtaining a set of software components that are prescribed in the pattern. Sub-architecture is selected and instantiated not only based on the functionality required but also based on quality requirements of a user and the surrounding environment. To provide this method, we constructed a quality-attributes-in-use ontology and developed a brokering mechanism that matches quality requirements of users and surroundings against quality attributes of sub-architectures. The ontology provides the common vocabularies to represent quality requirements and attributes, and enables the semantically-based reasoning in matching and instantiating appropriate sub-architectures in supporting services to users. This ontology-based approach contributes to provide a great flexibility in extending robot functionality based on available software components, and to narrow the gap between users' Quality requirements and the Quality of the actual services provided by a robot.

In this study, we are going to derive problems for fire and safety management in multiple-user Buildings and suggest improvement measures to prevent recurrence through analysis of legal operation status for safety management of multiple-user Buildings and case studies of large-scale fires in multiple-user Buildings. For this study, first, the current state of the industry and fire occurrence status were investigated through theoretical considerations of the multi-use industry, and then the previous research on the multi-use industry was analyzed. and by analyzing the legal and institutional status of multiple-user Buildings, problems were derived through cases such as the Jecheon fire in Chungcheongbuk-do, the Inhyeon-dong fire in Incheon, and the Songpa-gu fire in Seoul. As a result, first, the necessity of strengthening the initial fire response capability. Second, thorough maintenance and management of emergency exits. Third, the need for rational regulation of upholstery. Fourth, reinforcement of fire safety education and training. Fifth, strengthening of installation standards for firefighting and safety facilities. Sixth, we derive the result that it is necessary to raise awareness about safety management, compare and analyze it with legal and institutional contents, and suggest solutions accordingly. When looking at the causes of fires in multi-use buildings, building owners, business owners, and employees think that there is no possibility of a fire occurring in their business premises, so there is a lack of awareness. It is necessary to raise awareness through education and publicity of firefighters and related administrative agencies.

With recent development in information technology, IT convergence has been achieved ubiquitously in all areas of industry. In particular, there have been a lot of changes in medical IT conversion sector in terms of user service. In this regard, this paper attempts to propose an environment in which the existing paper prescription can be transferred in the form of QR codes using mobile handsets as one of practices from the perspective of user service. QR codes can minimize the burden resulting from the process of the output, delivery and storage of paper prescriptions. In addition, they can utilize the representation of the information in a wide variety of ways, and they are considered to be media that can minimize the risk of personal information exposure and falsification due to the restoration and encryption of the information. Accordingly, the application of QR codes to the medical field is expected to improve confidentiality ad storage capability of the information, along with users' convenience.

Virtual environment is an interactive multimedia space that allows users to experience realistic sensory feedbacks and interactions as they do in real world. There have been some work on the development of two-dimensional user interface for supporting interactions in a virtual environment. However, most of them were designed for specific virtual environments and hence could not be easily deployed to other virtual worlds. To address this problem, some frameworks were developed for building two-dimensional user interfaces for virtual environment, but they had limitations in usability or flexibility. In this paper, we present the HIVE framework, which is designed to help ease the development of two-dimensional user interface for the virtual environment while satisfying the requirements of both usability and flexibility. The HIVE framework utilizes XML and scripting capability, dynamic module loading, XML and script language for usability. It provides module reading, configuration, and event processing mechanism for flexibility. This paper first explains the HIVE framework and describes the applications developed for some virtual environments followed by discussing the future research directions.

In this paper, adaptive Facial Emotional Recognition system based on Gabor Wavelet Neural Network, considering six feature Points in face image to extract specific features of facial expression, is proposed. Levenberg-Marquardt-based training methodology is used to formulate initial network, including feature extraction stage. Therefore, heuristics in determining feature extraction process can be excluded. Moreover, to make an adaptive network for new user, Q-learning which has enhanced reward function and unsupervised fuzzy neural network model are used. Q-learning enables the system to ge optimal Gabor filters' sets which are capable of obtaining separable features, and Fuzzy Neural Network enables it to adapt to the user's change. Therefore, proposed system has a good on-line adaptation capability, meaning that it can trace the change of user's face continuously.

With the development in IT technology and with growing demands of users, a ubiquitous environment is being made. Because of individuals identification is important in ubiquitous environment, RFID, a technology used frequently. RFID, a technology that radio frequency identification, reader send signer, then tag provide user information. RFID has various strengths, such as high recognition rates, quick recognition speed, but Eavesdropping is possible and problem that user information is revealed happens. To solve this, study is proceeded with activity, but, because of low-cost passive tag is limited operation capability, usually used hash function and random number. Also updates value that is used to present session and uses in next session. Therefore, this scheme protects user privacy using random number. And this sheme can offer synchronization by creating variable value without updating value.
