This study aims to utilize big data contents of news and social media for developing a corporate strategy of multinational enterprises and their global decision-making through the data mining technique, especially text mining. In this paper, the data of 2 news media (BBC and CNN) and 2 social media (Facebook and Twitter) were collected for the three global leading Korean companies (Samsung, Hyundai Motor Company, and LG) from April, 2018 to April, 2019. The findings of this paper have shown that traditional news media and also modern social media have become devastating tools to extract global trends or phenomena for businesses. Moreover, this presents that a company can adopt a two-track strategy through two different types of media by deriving the key issues or trends from news media channels and also grasping consumers' sentiments, preference or issues of interest such as battery or design from social media. In addition, analyzing the texts of those media and understanding the association rules greatly contribute to the comparison between two different types of media channels to see the difference. Lastly, this provides meaningful and valuable data empowered insights to find a future direction comprehensively and develop a global strategy for sustainability of business.

The main purpose of this study was to develop Automatic Measurement System for monitoring tree's vigor using Ubiquitous Sensor Network This study also focused on presenting an alternative for monitoring automatically tree's vigor due to Shigometer's limits. Application test of the system in comparison with Shigometer showed that the measurement values were not different to choose between the two, and battery lasted about 1,844 days in this system. To test the sensor network the possible transmission distance using the sensor network in maximum was 130m. Investigation and management expenses can be reduced and labor productivity will also be improved in the forest and street trees.

In this paper, we introduce an efficient energy management using a notion of virtual energy system for shared solar-powered sensor network. Virtual energy system is an abstraction that allows sensor network applications on a node to reserve their own fractions of the shared solar cell and the shared rechargeable battery, hence achieving logically partition of a shared renewable power source. Our results show that our design and implementation are reliable, lightweight and efficient, allowing proper isolation of energy consumption among applications.

무인 운반차(AGV, Automated Guided Vehicle)은 1955년에 개발된 자재 운반용 무인운송 시스템으로 초기에는 제조 현장에서 자재의 운송에 국한되어 사용되었다. 최근에는 창고, 컨테이너 터미널 그리고 지하공간에서의 반복되는 실내/외 운송으로까지 그 사용이 확산되고 있다. AGV는 제조현장에서 제조 공정과 관련된 모든 자재의 이송에 적용되고 반복되는 운송의 형태에 사용되며, 실내 용도로는 수입, 저장, 분류, 반출, 이송과 공정 간의 파레트(Pallet) 이송에 사용되며, 비교적 작은 용량의 AGV가 이러한 제조현장에서 산업용도에 쓰이고 있다. AGV는 실내에서 주로 사용되는 환경적 특성상 배터리를 사용하며, 충전하거나 교환하여야 하며, 이에 소요되는 시간이 시스템의 성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 대부분의 제조현장이나 배송센터에서 AGV는 비교적 짧은 거리를 운행하므로 대기 시간 중에 배터리를 충전하거나 교환이 가능하다. 하지만 비교적 장거리를 운행하는 시스템에서는 AGV의 가동률을 50% 이하로 유지하거나 온라인 충전 시스템을 구비하여야만 배터리 전압 강하에 의한 시스템의 마비를 예방할 수 있다.

전기자동차의 축전지 관리 시스템(BMS : Battery Management System)의 잔존용량(SOC : State Of Charge)산정에는 Ah 측정법, 비중측정법, 전압측정법 등이 있다. 기존 전압 측정법의 경우 측정 전압을 프로세서에서 직접 처리하기 때문에 축전지의 미세한 전압 변화를 측정하지 못하여 잔존 용량 산정시 세밀한 계산에 어려움이 따른다. 본 논문에서는 축전지의 전압 측정 시 프로세서 전단에 전압의 부분 증폭회로를 추가하여 축전지의 미세한 전압변화를 증폭하여 측정하는 방법을 제안 하였다. 니켈수소전지를 대상으로 실험한 결과 충전 중 기존 전압측정법은 1.431V, 1.436V, 1.441V가 측정 되었을 때의 잔존 용량은 84%로 일정하였다. 같은 전압변화에서 부분증폭회로를 적용한 충전전압은 1.4297V, 1.4303V ~ 1.4352V, 1.4358V로 측정 되었으며, 그에 따른 잔존용량은 84% ~ 85%로 기존 전압 측정법 보다 약 9 ~ 10배 정도 세밀하게 측정 되었다. 제안한 방법을 통한 실험으로 제안된 방법이 기존 전압 측정법보다 세밀한 전압 측정 및 SOC산정이 가능함을 확인 하였다.

최근, 모바일 디바이스 성능 고도화로 인해 내장된 컴퓨팅 및 스토리지 자원을 이용한 다양한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 모바일 디바이스내 제한된 배터리량으로 인해 개발된 많은 어플리케이션을 동작하는 데 원활하지 못한 문제점을 가진다. 최근 연구는 어플리케이션의 몰입감 및 모바일 디바이스의 자체 성능 최적화에 대한 연구가 집중되어 있다. 현재, 분산된 모바일 디바이스내 비가용 유휴 자원을 활용한 연구가 미흡한 단계로 모바일 디바이스의 자원 고가용성을 위한 자원 관리 연구가 필요하다. 기존에 모바일 자원 통합 기법인 Mobile Resource Management(MRM)가 연구되었지만, 작업량 증가에 따라 인프라내 특정 모바일 디바이스의 배터리 소모가 급격히 소모되는 문제점을 내재한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 MRM 인프라내 특정 모바일 디바이스의 급격한 배터리 소모 방지를 위해 모의적으로 모바일 디바이스 연결 및 작업 수행하여 최적의 작업 분배를 위한 MBC-Sim을 제안한다.

A bolt-clamped ultrasonic viscometer was designed and fabricated using a pair of ring-shaped piezoelectric ceramic resonators. For its compactness and low operation frequencies, simulation of piezoelectric resonators was carried out using an ATILA program. Ring-shaped resonators using $0.05Pb(Mn_{1/3}Sb_{2/3})O_3-0.95Pb(Zr_{0.475}Ti_{0.525})O_3$ ceramics were prepared by a conventional ceramic processing, which were then clamped with a pair of metal caps. The fabricated sensor module with a small volume of less than 1 $cm^3$ and an operation frequency as low as 26.5 kHz showed a good relationship between its quality factor and the viscosity of oil.

This paper presents a cell balancing method for a single switch flyback converter with a multi-winding transformer. The conventional method using a flyback converter with a multi-winding transformer is simple and easy to control, but the voltage of each secondary winding coil might be non-uniform because of the unequal effective turn-ratio. In particular, it is difficult to control the non-uniform effect using turn-ratios because secondary coil has a limited number of turns. The non-uniform secondary voltages disturb the cell balancing procedure and induce an unbalance in cell voltages. Individual cell control by adding a switch for each cell can reduce the undesirable effect. However, the circuit becomes bulky, resulting in additional loss. The proposed method here uses the conventional flyback converter with an adjustment made to the output filters of the cells, instead of the additional switch. The magnitude of voltage applied to a particular cell can be reduced or increased according to the adjusted filter and the selected switching frequency. An analysis of the conventional converter configuration and the filter design method reveals the possibility of adequate cell balancing control without any additional switch on the secondary side.

Wireless sensor network may be installed where it is hard to access or where one has to constantly gather data without any human's monitoring. Sensors which compose a sensor network are usually small with poor battery capacities and thus energy-efficient usage is very important because of difficulties in replacing or recharging the batteries to make the lifetime of the whole sensor network longer. LEACH protocol, a well-known hierarchical routing protocol, may resolve this problem by distributing the role of cluster header evenly to the sensor nodes in the whole area of network at each round. In this thesis, we introduce a variant of LEACH protocol which considers the distance between base station and sensors in the way that if a node is far from the base station then the probability that this node becomes a cluster header is low. Experiments to evaluate the energy efficiency and the ability to collect the information show that the proposed method in this paper has maintained much wider sensing area while keeping the energy efficiency same as LEACH.

With the increase of electrical consumption and the unbalance of power demand and supply, power reserve rate is getting smaller and also the reliability of the power supply is getting deteriorated. Under this circumstance, the electrical energy storage (EES) System is considered as one of essential countermeasure for demand side management. This paper proposes efficient evaluation algorithms of multiple functions for EES systems, especially the secondary battery energy storage systems, in the case where they are interconnected with the power distribution systems. It is important to perform the economic evaluation for the new energy storage systems in a quantitative manner, because they are very costly right now. In this paper, the multiple functions of EES systems such as load levelling, effective utilization of power distribution systems and uninterruptible power supply are classified, and then the quantitative evaluation methods for their functions are proposed. From the case studies, it is verified that EES systems installed at distribution systems in a dispersed manner have multiple functions involved with direct and indirect benefits and also they can be expected to introduce to distribution systems with respects to economical point of view.
