Background: The global burden of cancer is continuously increasing. According to recent report of the National Cancer Registry Programme (NCRP) on time trends it is estimated that future burden of cancer cases for India in 2020 will be 1,320,928. It is well known that knowledge of the incidence of cancer is a fundamental requirement of rational planning and monitoring of cancer control programs. It would help health planners to formulate public health policy if relevant ethnic groups were considered. North East-India alone contains over 160 Scheduled Tribes and 400 other sub-tribal communities and groups, whose cancer incidence rates are high compared to mainland India. As since no previous study was done focusing on ethnicity, the present investigation was performed. Materials and Methods: In this paper PBCR-Guwahati data on all cancer registrations from January 2009 to December 2011 for residents of the Kamrup Urban District, comprising an area of 261.8 sq. km with a total population of 900,518, including individual records with information on sex, age, ethnicity and cancer site are provided. Descriptive statistics including age adjusted rates (AARs) were taken as provided by NCRP. For comparison of proportional incidence ratios (PIR) the Student's t test was used, with p<0.05 considered as statistically significant. Results and Conclusions: Differences in leading sites of Kamrup Urban District since from the beginning of the PBCR-Guwahati were revealed among different ethnic groups by this study. The results should help policy makers to formulate different strategies to control the level of burden as well as for treatment planning. This study also suggests that age is an important factor of cancer among different ethnic populations as well as for overall population of Kamrup District of Assam.

In this paper, we propose a new method of path planning for autonomous mobile robot in mapped circumstance. To search the optimal path, we adopt the genetic algorithm which is based on the natural mechanics of selection, crossover and mutation. We propose a method for generating the path population, selection and evaluation in genetic algorithm. Simulations show the efficiency for the global path planning, if we adopt the proposed GA method

The purpose of this study is to investigate the possible relationship between population migration and population inequality in rural areas. This study conducted a case study on the eup·myeon(rural)areas in Chungcheongbuk-do. First, the population migration was divided into four patterns, and the characteristics of population migration in rural areas were analyzed based on the net migration. The analysis results showed that there was serious migration between rural areas, and the population in rural areas mainly moved out to urban areas within the province, but the urban population outside the province moved out to rural areas. The main areas of population inflows included areas such as Deoksan-eup, Jincheon-gun, Osong-eup and Ochang-eup, Cheongju-si. Second, the Theil index was used to quantitatively analyze the level of population inequality between rural areas. The Theil index of the population aged 0~14 increased from 0.38 to 0.53, that of population aged 15-64 increased from 0.22 to 0.30, and that of population aged over 65 increased from 0.07 to 0.09, indicating an increase in population inequality. Finally, due to the continued large-scale inflows of population into Osong-eup and Ochang-eup, the Theil index of total population in Cheongju-si increased from 0.13 in 2009 to 0.23 in 2020, which meant that the level of population inequality had increased. Similarly, due to the continued large population inflows into Deoksan-eup, the Theil index of total population in Jincheon-gun increased from 0.14 in 2009 to 0.18 in 2020, which meant that the level of population inequality had increased. In conclusion, large-scale population inflows into specific areas will lead to an increase in the level of population inequality.

This study categorizes and identifies the characteristics of the living areas of rural dwellers through cluster analysis using mobile floating population data. As a result, rural areas in Korea were classified into 34 rural living areas, and 5 types of rural living areas were derived. Although the 'Suburban in Mega City Areas' and 'Suburban in Regional City Areas' derived through this study have advantages in terms of accessibility to large cities, they are important for rural space management as they can undermine the unique values of rural areas due to urban expansion. In addition, 'Unclassified areas' have low accessibility in the national space, and there is a need to provide their own settlement environment. The population of rural areas in Korea exhibited a phenomenon of widespread migration. This means that rural residents who depend on metropolitan areas are provided with SOC beyond administrative boundaries. Therefore, there is a need to move away from establishing a homogeneous regional plan that does not consider population movement. Through this study, it was possible to understand the rural living area formed by the population movement occurring in the rural area. This is different in that the existing studies classified the national space based on the interconnectedness between regions, beyond the limitations of categorizing regions with homogeneous characteristics based on endogenous indicators. At this point in time when the need for a rural space plan is emphasized, it is important to understand the living area of rural dwellers and to design an appropriate rural plan. Therefore, the establishment of a rural plan suitable for the region using the results of this study can increase the efficiency of the project for revitalization of the rural area and contribute to the creation of an attractive national space.

As the 24-hour society arrives, human activities in daytime and nighttime urban spaces are changing drastically, and the need for new urban management policies is steadily increasing. This study analyzes the types and characteristics of Seoul's human dynamics using location-based big data and the results are summarized as follows. First, the pattern of human dynamics in Seoul repeats itself every 7 days. Second, the types of human dynamics in Seoul can be classified into five types, and each of type has its own unique time-series and local characteristics. Third, the degree of match between human dynamics and zoning system in urban planning legislation was highest in 'Type 1' residence pattern and low in other types. The following implications can be drawn from these results. First, This paper examined the methodology of analyzing the regional characteristics of Seoul through the human dynamics and obtained meaningful results. Second, This paper can derive reliable and objective pattern analysis results using Big data that reflect the overall population characteristics. Third, the scale of night-time activity in the urban space of Seoul was understood, and its distribution, patterns and characteristics identified.

Korean population has been rapidly aging. Most of people regard the aging population as future crisis due to the rate of change and agree to prepare for a soft-landing on aging society in South Korea. Particularly, the aging population growth in rural areas is much faster than urban areas. Also rural areas relatively have poorer social and economic conditions so the countermeasures for population aging considering related social and economic indices are required. Moreover, each rural region has the different preparedness level for rural aging based on regional socio-economic characteristics. In this study, we analyzed correlations of the rural aging rate and local characteristics and developed an evaluation index to show the regional preparedness status for rural aging. To test the applicability of developed indicators, we applied them to 161 rural regions and assessed regional preparedness level for rural aging. This study would provide basic data for establishing policies for rural aging.

본격적인 인구감소 시대에 들어선 가운데 지방 도시들은 사회적 인구 유입도 어려운 상황을 고려하여 생활인구 유도를 통한 도시 활력 증진을 모색할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 이동통신 빅데이터를 활용한 도시활력도 분석을 위해 인구감소 지역인 부산광역시 행정동을 대상으로 주민등록인구와 생활인구의 시공간 분포특성을 비교하였다. 다음으로 행정동을 인구증감의 변화 양상으로 유형화한 후, 도시쇠퇴 및 활력 관련 지표를 사용하여 유형별 지역 특성을 분석하였다. 시공간 분포특성 분석결과, 주민등록인구와 생활인구 밀도 분포패턴은 대체로 비슷한 패턴을 보였으나, 원도심 지역에서 주민등록인구 밀도가 낮으면서 생활인구 밀도가 높은 반대의 특성을 가지는 지역이 나타났다. 주민등록인구와 생활인구의 변화 양상은 상당한 차이를 보였으며, 주민등록인구는 밀도가 낮은 지역에서 인구가 감소하는 반면, 생활인구는 밀도가 높은 지역에서 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 생활인구 감소 군집에 인접해서 인구증감의 지역 간 격자가 큰 군집이 나타나, 인구 밀도가 높은 지역에서 주변 지역에 생활인구가 확산하는 전이효과가 나타날 가능성을 시사했다. 유형화 결과, 주민등록인구가 감소하는 지역에서도 통근·통학 또는 방문으로 인한 활발한 인구 유입이 있었으며, 이러한 지역은 사업체 수의 증가를 유지하고 있어, 산업·경제적 성장이 존재함을 확인하였다. 다만 부산의 약 47% 행정동은 주민등록인구와 생활인구가 모두 감소하고 지역 쇠퇴가 진행되고 있었으며, 이러한 지역에 대해 우선적인 도시 활력 증진을 위한 노력이 필요하다. 본 연구는 교통과 통신의 발달로 인한 도시활동의 한계거리 증가와 이동량의 증가로 지역간 교류가 날로 확대되는 점을 고려해 주민등록인구뿐만 아니라 도시계획지표로서의 생활인구 데이터의 활용 필요성을 제시하였다.

Background: Having knowledge or estimation of cancer incidence is necessary for planning and implementation of any cancer prevention and control programs. Population-based registries provide valuable information to achieve these objectives but require extra techniques to estimate the incidence rate. The present study aimed to estimate the esophageal cancer incidence using a log-linear method based on Tehran population-based cancer registry data. Materials and Methods: New cases of esophageal cancer reported by three sources of pathology reports, medical records, and death certificates to Tehran Metropolitan Area Cancer Registry Center during 2002-2006 were entered into the study and the incidence rate was estimated based on log-linear models. We used Akaike statistics to select the best-fit model. Results: During 2002-2006, 1,458 new cases of esophageal cancer were reported by the mentioned sources to the population-based cancer registry. Based on the reported cases, cancer incidence was 4.5 per 100,000 population and this was estimated to be 10.5 per 100,000 by the log-linear method. Conclusions: Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that an estimated incidence for 2004 of 8.3 per 100,000 population could be a good benchmark for the incidence of esophageal cancer in the population of Tehran metropolis.

우리나라에서 공공도서관의 봉사대상인구는 학술담론이 부재한 채 건립, 리모델링, 서비스 계획의 수립과 평가 등에 적용되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 법률, 지침, 자료 등을 토대로 한 문헌연구와 미국, 호주, 일본과 한국의 사례에 대한 비교분석을 통해 봉사대상인구를 봉사계획인구와 봉사인구로 구분하여 재정의하고 각각의 산출방식을 제안하였다. 봉사계획인구는 건립이나 리모델링에 따른 투입자원을 산출하기 위한 용도로 사용되며, 공공도서관이 서비스 할 수 있는 지역적 범위에 거주하는 인구로 인구통계학적 특성만을 확인할 수 있다. 봉사계획인구의 산출은 계획시점의 행정구역인구를 기초로 인구 10만 이상의 도시지역에는 도서관을 중심으로 반경 2km 이내의 인구와 개관연도까지의 추계인구를 적용하고, 인구 10만 미만의 지역에서는 행정구역의 최소단위인 읍·면·동의 인구와 추계인구로 설정할 것을 제안하였다. 반면, 봉사인구는 개별 공공도서관의 서비스 계획 수립이나 평가, 홍보 등에 사용되며, 실제 공공도서관을 이용하는 이용자이거나 공공도서관의 투입자원에 따라 결정되는 수혜대상 인구로 정의할 수 있다. 봉사인구는 공공도서관의 등록회원 수나 서비스 참가자 수, 투입자원의 규모에 따라 산출한 서비스 수혜대상 수 등으로 산출할 수 있다. 제안된 방식을 적용하면 효율적인 공공도서관의 시설 배치나 자원 투입이 가능하며, 투입 대비 산출에 대한 측정 신뢰도를 제고할 수 있다는 이점이 있다. 더불어 이 연구에서는 봉사대상인구 적용에 따른 혼란을 피할 수 있도록 『도서관법』 제3조 제1항의 <별표1>을 삭제하고, 기준이나 매뉴얼과 같이 개정이 유연한 자료에 개념 및 산출 근거 등을 명시할 것을 제안하였다.
