GPS 및 위치 관리 기술의 발달과 이동 통신 기술의 진보, 그리고 PDA 등의 개인용 단말기의 확산으로 인하여, 이동하는 차량 및 사용자의 위치 및 상황에 따라 적절한 컨텐츠 서비스를 제공하는 위치기반서비스가 활발히 연구되고 있다. 위치 기반 서비스는 센서 네트워크 응용 기술의 발달로 인하여 차량 추적 및 항법 서비스에서 사용자의 상태 및 교통 정체, 사고, 등의 환경 정보를 고려한 보다 개인화되고 지능적인 서비스로 그 영역을 넓혀가고 있다. 또한 차량의 위치 정보 및 주변 상황 정보의 활용도가 높아짐에 따라 저장된 차량 정보 및 환경정보를 효과적으로 검색하는 질의어도 꾸준히 연구되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 이동 객체 질의어는 대부분 실세계에 적용되어 평가되지 못했으며, 변화하는 환경 정보를 다루지 않기 때문에, 사용자를 위한 추천 서비스를 제공하기엔 부족한 점이 있다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 차량의 위치 정보 뿐만 아니라 주변 환경 정보까지 검색하고 활용하기 위하여, 추천 서비스를 위한 이동 객체 질의어를 설계하고, 이를 지원하는 차량 추적 시스템을 구현한다. 제시된 질의어는 차량의 위치, 방향, 주변 환경 정보, 등을 고려하여 다양한 속성 정보를 고려하여 추천 서비스를 위한 최근접 질의를 처리한다. 향후 환경 정보에 기반한 여러 추천 요소를 활용하는 위치 기반 서비스 응용에 활용될 수 있다.

본 논문에서는 단일 카메라를 이용하여 차량의 위치를 검출하고 연속적인 프레임에서의 차량의 움직임을 추적하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 차량의 특징을 검출하기 위해 Haar-like 에지 검출기를 사용하고, 카메라의 캘리브레이션 정보를 이용하여 차량의 위치를 추정한다. 신뢰도를 높이기 위해 k 개의 연속적인 프레임에서의 누적된 차량 정보를 추출한다. 최종 검출된 차량을 템플릿으로 지정하고 SURF (Speeded Up Robust Features) 알고리즘을 통해 연속적으로 입력되는 프레임에서 동일한 차량을 추출한다. 이를 통해 동일 차량으로 추출된 차량 정보를 새로운 템플릿으로 업데이트 한다. 비교 검출을 위한 수행 시간을 줄이기 위해 이전 프레임에서 검출된 차량의 범위를 확장한 영역만을 관심 영역으로 지정한다. 이 과정은 공통된 대응점을 찾지 못할 때까지 검출과 추적 과정을 반복하여 진행한다. 실 도로 상에서 얻어진 영상에 대해 적용함으로써 제안된 알고리즘의 효율성을 보였다.

In Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), logistics distribution and mobile e-commerce, the real-time, accurate and reliable vehicle trajectory prediction has significant application value. Vehicle trajectory prediction can not only provide accurate location-based services, but also can monitor and predict traffic situation in advance, and then further recommend the optimal route for users. In this paper, firstly, we mine the double layers of hidden states of vehicle historical trajectories, and then determine the parameters of HMM (hidden Markov model) by historical data. Secondly, we adopt Viterbi algorithm to seek the double layers hidden states sequences corresponding to the just driven trajectory. Finally, we propose a new algorithm (DHMTP) for vehicle trajectory prediction based on the hidden Markov model of double layers hidden states, and predict the nearest neighbor unit of location information of the next k stages. The experimental results demonstrate that the prediction accuracy of the proposed algorithm is increased by 18.3% compared with TPMO algorithm and increased by 23.1% compared with Naive algorithm in aspect of predicting the next k phases' trajectories, especially when traffic flow is greater, such as this time from weekday morning to evening. Moreover, the time performance of DHMTP algorithm is also clearly improved compared with TPMO algorithm.

Due to the complexity of urban area, the city vehicle routing problem has been a difficult problem. The problem has involved factors such as parking availability, road conditions, and traffic congestion, all of which increase transportation costs and delivery times. To resolve this problem, one effective solution can be the use of parcel lockers located near customer sites, where products are stored for customers to pick up. When a vehicle delivers products to a designated parcel locker, customers in the vicinity must pick up their products from that locker. Recently, identifying optimal locations for these parcel lockers has become an important research issue. This paper addresses the parcel locker location problem within the context of urban traffic congestion. By considering dynamic environmental factors, we propose a Markov decision process model to tackle the city vehicle routing problem. To ensure more real situations, we have used optimal paths for distances between two nodes. Numerical results demonstrate the viability of our model and solution strategy.

Purpose: Majority of bridges and roads in Gangwon Province have been carrying loads associated with heavy materials such as rocks, mining products, and cement. This location-specific live loads have contributed to the present situation of overloading, compared to other provinces in Korea. However, the bridges in Gangwon province are designed by national bridge design specification, without considering the location-specific live load characteristics. Therefore, this study focuses on the real traffic data accumulated on regional weighing station to verify the live load characteristics, including actual live load gross vehicle weight, axle weight axle spacings, and number of trucks. Methods: In order to take into account the location specific live load, a governmental weigh station (38th national highway Miro) have been selected and the passing truck data are processed. Based on the truck survey, trucks are categorized into 3 different shapes, and each shape has been idealized into normal distribution. Then, the resulting survey data are processed to predict the target maximum live load values, including the axle loads and gross vehicle weights in 75 years service life span. Results: The results are compared to the nationally used DB-24 live loads, and the results show that nationally recognized DB-24 live load does not sufficiently represent real traffic in mountaineous region in Gangwon province. Conclusion: The comparison results in the recommendation of location-specific live load that should be taken into account for bridge design and evaluation.

This paper is concerned with tasking and guidance of networked airborne sensors to achieve fault-tolerant sensing. The sensors are coordinated to locate hostile transmitters by intercepting and processing their signals. Faults occur when some sensor-carrying vehicles engaged in target location missions are lost. Faults effectively change the network architecture and therefore degrade the network performance. The first objective of the paper is to optimally allocate a finite number of sensors to targets to maximize the network life and availability. To that end allocation policies are solved from relevant Markov decision problems. The sensors allocated to a target must continue to adjust their trajectories until the estimate of the target location reaches a prescribed accuracy. The second objective of the paper is to establish a criterion for vehicle guidance for which fault-tolerant sensing is achieved by incorporating the knowledge of vehicle loss probability, and by allowing network reconfiguration in the event of loss of vehicles. Superior sensing performance in terms of location accuracy is demonstrated under the established criterion.

The vehicle oriented block box system based on the u-healthcare and the human-free guard functions is developed in this paper. We also suggested the design philosophies, ideas, and analyzed the performance of the suggested system. The developed vehicle oriented black box system has some characteristics such as; 1) detects the dangerous situation by ultrasonic sensor in advance, and stores the situation information of the neighborhood of the vehicle to the imbedded SD memory card if the dangerous situation may be occurred in the parked vehicle; 2) detects the present location and speed information of the vehicle by GPS receiver and 3-axes acceleration sensor, and stores the information to the SD memory card periodically if the vehicle is running; 3) measures the dioxide carbon in the vehicle inside using $CO_2$ sensor, and forces the ventilation motor of the vehicle to operate and maintains the driver's health if the measured level is more than standard health requirements; 4) provides the stored vehicle's operating information to the driver by GUI (Graphical User Interface) based touch LCD monitor.

The durability of a cylinder head is influenced by the thermal and mechanical history during the manufacturing process, as well as engine operation. In order to improve the durability of cylinder head, both load from engine operation and the preload conditions from the manufacturing process must be considered. The aluminum cylinder head used for a HSDI diesel engine is investigated to reduce the possibility of high cycle fatigue crack in this study. FE analysis is performed to elucidate the mechanism of high cycle fatigue crack in the HSDI diesel cylinder head. Two separate approaches to increase the durability of the cylinder head are discussed: reducing load from engine operation and re-arranging preload conditions from the manufacturing process at the critical location of the cylinder head. Local design changes of the cylinder head and modification of pretension load in the cylinder head bolt were investigated using FE analysis to relieve load at the critical location during engine operation. Residual stress formed at the critical location during the manufacturing process is measured and heat treatment parameters are changed to re-arrange the distribution of residual stress. Results of FE analysis and experiments showed that thorough consideration of the manufacturing process is necessary to enhance the durability of the cylinder head.

Transportation in urban area has been getting hard to fulfill the demand on time. There are various uncertainties and obstacles related with road conditions, traffic congestions, and accidents to interrupt the on-time deliveries. With this situation, the last mile logistics has been a keen issue for researchers and practitioners to find the best strategy of the problem. A way to resolve the problem is to use parcel lockers. Parcel locker is a storage that customers can pick up their products. Transportation vehicles deliver the products to parcel lockers instead of all customer sites. Using the parcel lockers, the total delivery costs can be reduced. However, the inconvenience of customer has to increase. Thus, we have to optimal solution to balance between the total delivery costs and customers' inconvenience. This paper formulates a mathematical model to find the optimal solution for the vehicle routing problem and the location problem of parcel lockers. Experimental results provide the viability to find optimal strategy for the routing problem as well as the location problem.
