  • Despite empirical research that the response to human risk is significantly influenced affective factors, the role of affective factors has been unexplored in information privacy research. This study aims to explore the privacy behaviors of location-based service (LBS) users from an affective point of view. Specifically, the study explored the relationship between three types of privacy threats (collection, hacking, secondary use), two affects (worry, anger), and a coping behavior (continuous use intentions). The structured survey was conducted with 552 users. In order to analyze the effect of the combination of perception of particular privacy threats and particular affects on the intention of continuous use, association rules, one of the data mining techniques, was employed. As a result, there was a difference in the intention to use according to the combination of the perception of risk and affect responses, and the most significant influence on the intention is when the second use of personal information was combined with anger. This study has significant theoretical contribution in that it includes affective factors in the research of information privacy users, complementing the biases of existing cognition-oriented approaches and providing a comprehensive understanding of privacy response behavior.

  • Today, services using Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) technology are provided in various fields, such as smartphone Location-Based Service (LBS) and autonomous driving. Generally, outdoor positioning techniques depend on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and the need for positioning techniques that guarantee positioning accuracy, availability, and continuity is emerging with advances in service. In particular, continuity is not guaranteed in urban canyons where it is challenging to secure visible satellites with standalone GNSS, and even if more than four satellites are visible, the positioning accuracy and stability are reduced due to multipath channels. Research using Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites is already underway to overcome these limitations. In this study, we conducted a trend analysis of LEO-PNT research, an LEO satellite-based navigation and augmentation system. Through comparison with GNSS, the differentiation of LEO-PNT was confirmed, and the system design and receiver processing were analyzed according to LEO-PNT classification. Lastly, the current status of LEO-PNT development by country and institution was confirmed.

  • As crime has actually increased in recent years, various mobile applications related to safety and emergency measure have received much attention. Therefore, IoT (Internet of Things) technologies, which connect various physical objects with Internet communication, have been also paid attention and then diverse safety services based on IoT technologies have been on the increase. However, existing mobile safety applications are simply based on location based service (LBS). Also, as they are independently operated without the help of another safety systems, they cannot efficiently cope with various safety situations. So, this paper proposes the efficient smart safety service architecture with both the risky situation detection using user location as well as various sensing information and the risk congruence measure using the streetlight infrastructure. Additionally, UDID (unique device identifier) is utilized for the secure communication with the control center.

  • Location-Based Services (LBSs) provide results to queries according to the location of the client issuing the query. In LBS, techniques such as caching and prefetching are effective approaches to reducing the data transmission from a server and query response time. However, they can lead to cache inefficiency and network overload due to the client's mobility and query pattern. To solve these drawbacks, we propose a semantic prefetching (SP) scheme using prefetching segment concept and improved cache replacement policies. When a mobile client enters a new service area, called semantic prefetching area, proposed scheme fetches the necessary semantic information from the server in advance. The mobile client maintains the information in its own cache for query processing of location-dependent data (LDD) in mobile computing environment. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated in relation to various environmental variables, such as the mobility and query pattern of user, the distributions of LDDs and applied cache replacement strategies. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme is more efficient than the well-known existing scheme for range query and nearest neighbor query. In addition, applying the two queries dynamically to query processing improves the performance of the proposed scheme.

  • Location-Based Services(LBS) give rise to location-based queries of which results depend on the locations of moving objects. One of important applications of LBS is to examine tracks of continuously moving objects. Moving objects databases need to provide 3-dimensional indexing for efficiently processing range queries on the movement of continuously changing positions. An extension of the 2-dimensional R-tree to include time dimension shows low space utilization and poor search performance, because of high overlap of index nodes and their dead space. To solve these problems, we propose a new R-tree based indexing technique, namely TR-tree. To increase storage utilization, we assign more entries to the past node by using the unbalanced splitting policy. If two nodes are highly overlapped, these nodes are forcibly merged. It is the forced merging policy that reduces the dead space and the overlap of nodes. Since big line segments can also affect the overlap of index nodes to be increased, big line segments should be clipped by the clipping policy when splitting overfull nodes. The TR-tree outperforms the 3DR-tree and TB-tree in all experiments. Particularly, the storage utilization of the TR-tree is higher than the R-tree and R*-tree.

  • Due to development of environment of wireless Internet, location based services on the basis of spatial data have been increased such as real time traffic information as well as CNS(Car Navigation System) to provide mobile user with route guidance to the destination. However, the current application adopting the file-based system has limitation of managing and storing the huge amount of spatial data. In order to supplement this challenge, research which is capable of managing large amounts of spatial data based on embedded database system is surely demanded. For this reason, this study aims to suggest the lossless compression technique by using the hybrid approach of BytePacking and Lempel-Ziv which can be applicable in DBMS so as to save a mass spatial data efficiently. We apply the proposed compression technique to actual the Seoul and Inchcon metropolitan area and compared the existing method with suggested one using the same data through analyzing the query processing duration until the reconstruction. As a result of comparison, we have come to the conclusion that suggested technique is far more performance on spatial data demanding high location accuracy than the previous techniques.

  • 최근 위치 인식 기술과 휴대 장치의 발달로 인해 이동하는 객체를 기반으로 하는 위치 기반 서비스(Location Based Service, LBS)의 관심이 점점 증가하고 있고 그에 관련된 연구들이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이동 객체의 응용은 빈번하게 변경되는 이동객체의 위치정보를 효과적으로 처리할 수 있는 색인구조를 필요로 한다. 위치정보를 색인하기 위해 R-tree 기반의 색인들이 제안되었다. 하지만 R-tree는 변경보다는 검색 연산에 초점이 맞추어진 색인구조이기 때문에 잦은 변경을 다루어야 하는 이동객체 환경에 적합하지 못하다. 최근 이러한 객체의 빠른 위치 변경을 지원하는 그리드 기반의 색인 구조가 제안되었다. 하지만 셀의 객체 점유율에 따라 검색 속도가 저하되는 단점은 여전히 해결되지 못하고 있다. 이러한 단점은 객체들이 특정 영역에 몰리는 경우 또는 그리드의 해상도를 잘못 지정한 경우 더욱 부각된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위해 가상 셀 기반의 색인 구조를 제안한다. 데이터 페이지에 객체의 점유율을 보장하기 위해 여러 개의 인접한 셀들의 데이터를 한 데이터 페이지에 함께 저장한다. 공간 채움 곡선을 기반으로 순서화된 셀들로 셀의 인접성을 결정한다. 또한 공간 채움 곡선의 차수를 동적으로 지정하여 객체가 집중된 셀에 대해서는 셀의 단위 크기를 작게 지정한다. 뿐만 아니라 셀을 표현하기 위한 식별자를 위해 비트를 이용한 표현식을 제안하였다. 이로 인해 노드의 팬아웃을 증가시켰고, 저장공간을 절약하였다. 실험을 통해서 제안하는 색인 기법의 우수성을 증명하였다.

  • Recently, with the rapid advancement in information and communication technology, indoor location-based services(LBSs) that require precise position tracking have been actively studied with outdoor-LBS using GPS. However, in case of a ship which consists of steel structure, it is difficult to measure a precise localization due to significant ranging error by the diffraction and refraction of radio waves. In order to reduce location measurement errors that occur in these indoor environments, this paper presents distance compensation algorithms that are suitable for a narrow passage such as ship corridors without any additional sensors by using UWB(Ultra-wide-band), which is robust to multi-path and has an error in the range of a few centimeters in free space. These improvement methods are that Pythagorean theory and adjacent node technique are used to solve the distance error due to the node deployment and distance variation analysis technique is applied to reduce the ranging errors which are significantly fluctuated in the corner section. The experimental results show that the number of nodes and the distance error are reduced to 66% and 57.41%, respectively, compared with conventional CSS(Chirp spread spectrum) method.
