Children will present phobic psychology in the special environment in hospital. Therefore, children's psychological emotions should be taken into account in the construction of the hospital environment. After that, the three stages and seven emotional factors which stimulate children's emotions will be summarized and applied to the graphic performance in children's hospitals, so as to alleviate children's fear. Plus, through the analysis of domestic and foreign cases, the graphic representation types of children's hospitals are divided into modern design, illustration design, three-dimensional design, interactive design, and these emotional factors are integrated into the graphic representation for evaluation. Here comes the evaluation results: there are little or no emotional factors in modern design; there are less emotional factors in illustration design and three-dimensional design due to less feelings and experiences. However, the results show that children feel much better from all aspects because there are more emotional factors with the help of interactive design. Based on the above evaluation results, here comes the graphic design guidelines for children's hospital waiting room.

In this study, some methods for the organization of space in the welfare center for the disabled are suggested corresponding to the change of welfare paradigm for the disabled, by means of investigating and analyzing the existing organization of space, division of the areas and relevant programs. The results of the study are as follows. 1) The method of the spatial organization in the welfare center for the disabled is divided largely into an area of the welfare complex center used as a facility of uses and an area of the controlling center that manages and makes use of domiciliary welfare. 2) The division of counselling and management is the center for the aforementioned two areas. This division occupying the minimum space in the welfare center has to be expanded. Besides, the space for the volunteers for 'domiciliary welfare' is necessary. This can be administered synthetically along with the room for volunteers in the division of social rehabilitation. 3) It is necessary for the division of medical rehabilitation to have a common waiting area due to its close connection with other treatment rooms. It should be recommended to have it in the water treatment room. It is required to have a parents' waiting area in the treatment room for child rehabilitation. 4) In case of the division of educational rehabilitation, the daytime care center should be closely related to the division of medical rehabilitation. Meanwhile, the classrooms after school have a limited use so that they can be shared with the room for female rehabilitation in the division of social rehabilitation. 5) It is in reality for the division of social rehabilitation to have an expanded area of domiciliary welfare. The room for volunteers for domiciliary welfare should be arranged, too.

As life quality have grown today, People have been greatly interested in health. Moreover, new knowledge and concepts are being applied in the medical facility field and that makes the field expand constantly. Hereby, this research is a study on design elements of dental clinics and the research goals are to understand interior design of current dental clinics by investigation and analysis on furniture, closing materials, colors and so on, and to investigate esthetic and functional environments for dental clinics through analyzing upcoming trends of inner spaces of dental clinics. The investigation was conducted by visits to four clinics per each research area, where are in Busan area and opened after year 2000 and are located in Seoul and Busan. Though the spaces of dental clinics vary according to the characteristics of each clinic, it generally has a consultation room, a waiting room and an X-ray room. The closing materials that make patients feel at ease are used in the waiting room, and ones that make patients feel tidy and fresh are used in consultation spaces, spare spaces, and management spaces. In Seoul area, antique and harmonic colors are used, and modernistic colors are used in Busan area. Reception desks, chair units, sofas and sink storage shelfs are the common furniture in the clinic. We have learned what are mentioned above by research and investigation on the component characteristics of dental clinic spaces. Based on these, more systematical and in-depth research should be continued.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate noise level exposures at different locations such as the left and right ears of the shooter, control room, waiting soldier location and drill ground. For this study, we visited two military rifle ranges and took measurements with a sound level meter (3M Quest SoundPro TM) at five different locations with values of Peak (dB(A)) and Max (dB(A)). The highest peak value of impulse noise level averaged 150.4 dB(A), ranging from 149.6 to 150.5 dB(A) at both the left and right ear sides. This result was significantly different between both left and right ear side locations and at other locations such as the control room, waiting soldier location, and drill ground (P < 0.001). Frequency of impulse noise exposure level showed that the left ear of shooter had the highest frequency (20 times) at over 150 dB(A). This study confirmed that there is a need for proper controls to reduce the amount of impulse noise exposure at military rifle ranges.

The concept of dental clinic have been changed along the advanced dental science to meet the need of setting up high-technology-digital appliances. As the general idea about the dental clinic has been changed from systematic connection, the expansion of zoning needs to become more accurate and mote detailed. In the spacious waiting room. the interment cafe has been established to supply the information services, and the various multi-imaged channels, which were built in, will relieve the boredom of the waiting time. The formation of water space leads to the effect of humidification and makes parents share visual and auditory sympathy All of the unit-chairs attached cameras in the consultation room enables people to diagnose more quickly and precisely through the computerized system. Partitions have been set of to put it in and to help diagnosis process to be done smoothly in the formational space. The whole atmosphere is intended to be harmony with the natural surroundings in Je-Ju. It will inspire people visiting this clinic to image the deep blue sea in Je-Ju. By using projective non-material a lot, especially material wooden windows and doors, it is believed to create the bright and stable atmosphere. It will lead patients feel comfortable.

In this paper various aspects of statistical maltiplexing of data signs have been investigated. A queueing model with finite waiting room and batch poisson arrivals is studied assuming that data signals are transmitted at a constant rate. Using traffic intensity and average burst length as parameters, overflow probabilities and expected queueing delay due to buffering are obtained. Also, a real system model of a statistical multiplexer that can be directly used in micro-programmed hardware realization is proposed. To examine the performance of the system, computer simulation has been done at various conditions. The results obtained can be used in designing a buffer efficiently.

The main purpose of this project is to improve the funeral and grave culture which has brought about many social problems, and to fix the crematory culture as the future funeral ceremony in our country. In this study, we first investigated the actual condition of cremation culture. Second, we survey three representative crematorium as an object of study and investigated similar sample buildings in Japan, we analyzed the problem of existing crematorium. Finally, we arranged the basics to approach the space program and design criteria of this project. 1. The entrance of vehicles has been commonly concentrated to the opening time of crematorium. therefore, Peak time has come out as circulation of cremation and waiting time is increasing, also it is difficult to manage the congestion normally. 2. The whole problem of crematorium is poor environment, inferior buildings, noise, unsatisfactory ventilation and privacy, insufficient convenience facilities. 3. The user demand on the crematorium facilities is a private family room for waiting area, a farewell room for family members in a direct line, an outdoor rest area, and the various service facilities, and so on. 4. For improvement of the funeral and grave culture, it is necessary that crematorium is not a hatred facilities, as the conversion of consciousness, and to new shape of charnel as it wore family tomb.

Purpose: Those who access to the nuclear medicine department are classified as radiation workers, temporarily access group, and occasional access group as defined by the atomic energy law. The radiation workers and temporarily access people wear a personal radiation dosimeter for checking their own radiation absorbed dose periodically. However, because of the sanitation workers, classified as temporarily access group, who are working in the nuclear medicine department are moved in a cycle with other departments and their works are changeful, it is hard to control their radiation absorbed dose. Thus, this study is going to examine the state of the sanitation worker's radiation absorbed dose, and then make sure whether they are classified as temporarily access group or not. Materials and methods: In the first instance, the first sanitation worker who works in vitro laboratory and PET room and the second sanitation worker who works in gamma camera rooms (invivo room) wore radiation dosimeter-OSL(Optically Stimulated Luminescence)- to measure their own radiation absorbed dose during work time from May to June 2011. Secondly, this study was taken place 5 places in gamma camera rooms, 2 places in PET bed room, operating room, waiting room and cyclotron room in PET and 4 places in vitro laboratory. And then to measure the radiation space dose rate, it is measured 10 times each of places as sanitation worker's work flow by using radiation survey meter. Results: The radiation absorbed dose on OSL of the first c who works in vitro laboratory and PET room and the second one who works in gamma camera rooms are 0.04, 0.02 mSv per month respectively. That means the estimated annual radiation absorbed doses are less than 1mSv as 0.48, 0.24 mSv/yr respectively. The radiation space dose rates as sanitation worker's work flow using survey meter are 0.0037, 0.0019 mSv/day, so the estimated annual radiation absorbed dose are 0.93, 0.47 mSv/yr respectively. The weighted exposure dose of first sanitation worker of each places are 1.62% in cyclotron room, 3.88% in waiting room, 2.39% in operating room, 81.01% in bed room of PET and 11.01% in vitro laboratory. The weighted exposure dose of second sanitation worker of each places are 45.22% in radiopharmaceutical laboratory, gamma 30.64% in camera rooms, 15.65% in waiting room, 8.49% in reading room. Conclusion: The annual radiation absorbed doses on OSL of both sanitation workers are less than 1 mSv per year and the annual radiation absorbed doses by using survey meter are less than 1mSv either, but close up to 1 mSv. Thus, to clarify whether the sanitation workers are temporarily access group or not, and to be lessen their s radiation absorbed dose, they should be educated about management of radiation and modified their work flow or work time appropriately, their radiation absorbed dose would be lessen certainly.

To improve medical service and customers' satisfaction by reducing actual waiting time for medical inspection by personalized examination guidance contents (PEGC) linked with medical information system (MIS). The suggested PEGC was completed with preparing transmission for data and PEGC by using transmission control protocol internet protocol (TCP/IP) which can be built up creditable data transmission service. When patient signal event appeared in MIS while the communication was in standby, the ID and data of the customer were shown as text and image on monitors in waiting room. Guiding inspections, steps of examination, and undressing information extracted from the PEGC was also shown to the appropriate patient. After installation of the suggested PEGC, we rechecked satisfaction rates of 60 customers who visited the hospital with a same method as initial survey. The results of this study suggest that 3.6 point of waiting time satisfaction index were improved, after installation of the suggested PEGC, as 4.6 point.
