The demand of the real-time data was promoted by significant development of network and IT technology. In particular, the entry of an aging society and income growth increase the demand for personal health related data which attempt to provide various and evolutional healthcare services by several healthcare institutions. Especially the presentation of the medical examination result is the most basic healthcare services which should be expressed to maximize understanding in personal health records for their own health. However according to absence of systematic visualization framework and visualization model, intuitive understanding of healthcare related data is difficult. Cosequently In this study, customized visualization representation based on the results of medical examination was provided to aviod consistent format for health examinee and establish a variety of data representations.

Digital broadcasting areas are leading information technology and having been strengthen the competitiveness of industries. In this paper, we developed HSS(Home Stream Station) for recording and transmitting digital broadcasting on digital TV without additional devices, which is based on cable TV network at home. The HSS can record a broadcasting program selected by user while digital TV shows the other channel. User can watch the program stored on the HSS at any time and any digital TV in the home. LAN interface of the HSS was also developed for supplying high quality digital broadcasting-contents through home network using IP-STB(Set Top Box).

The right to be forgotten is a world-wide issue after the decision of the European Court of Justice which accepted that right. This essay discusses about the guide lines for protecting the right to delete, a category of the right to be forgotten. I classified those guide lines as follows : (1) sensitiveness of the personal information, (2) offensiveness to reasonable and ordinary people, (3) intention of writing the article, (4) value of historical record, (5) importance of privacy comparing with right to know with time flow, (6) public figure, (7) article based on fact or opinion. To effectively protect right to be forgotten and delete, we have to consider Privacy Impact Assessment, using blind system, unification of multiple institutions, and reforming press arbitration system.

This study was carried out to provide basic data for prevention of death from injuries and traumas by analyzing the characteristics of length of hospital stay of patients with injuries and traumas, utilizing in-depth investigation data of discharged injuries. The study subjects were 233 patients discharged from January 1 to December 31 in 2014 whom the final treatment result was 'death' and the main diagnosis were injuries and accidental external causes(S00-T98). According to the research findings, the length of hospital stay of females was longer than that of males. Based on the main diagnosis, the longest length of hospital stay had complication of other internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts(T85). In conclusion, it is necessary to develop a policy to identify the factors affecting the length of hospital stays of patients and to manage them intensively.

Since the birth of the Ethereum in 2015, various decentralized applications (DApp) based on blockchain smart contract technology have appeared. However, CryptoKitty's case showed instability in terms of performance and scalability in real-world service environments. To solve this, a blockchain platform that developed a high transaction per second (TPS) has appeared, but there have been no environments and services to test it. Therefore, this paper intends to design and develop a game that can record the contents of all games on the chain and verify the performance and scalability of the blockchain platform through oversized transactions. The developed game generated a total of 6.3 million blocks and 8.9 million transactions through by 682 and verified the improved performance and scalability of the existing platform. Additionally, the maximum TPS was measured at 1,309 during the test period. In the future, it is expected that performance and scalability can be compared in a realistic environment through the method presented in this paper.

This study was performed to investigate the relationship between milk and milk product consumption and dietary nutrient intake among Korean adolescents. Questionnaire survey and 3-day diet survey using the food record method were completed by a total of 664 subjects. Subjects were divided into three groups, Q1 (low group), Q2 (middle group), and Q3 (high group), according to dairy equivalent of calcium. Dairy equivalent of calcium was determined by the amount of calcium eaten from milk and milk products by individual subjects. As a result, the ratio of school milk service was higher in Q3 (P<0.001). The most frequent answer about the reason for consuming milk and milk products was 'to be taller' followed by 'good taste' and 'health promotion'. Preference for all types of milk such as white-, enriched-, and flavored-milk was higher in Q3 followed by Q2>Q1 (P<0.05). Ratio of mean daily dietary nutrient intakes of dietary fiber, vitamin C, folate, and calcium to RNI was lower than 2/3 for all of the groups. These mean daily dietary nutrient intakes were significantly higher in Q3 (P<0.05), and in particular, mean daily dietary calcium intake, which was the lowest nutrient consumed by Korean adolescents, was also the highest in Q3 followed by Q2>Q1 (P<0.05). The above results suggest that the school milk program is very helpful in encouraging adolescents to consume milk and milk products and consequently ensure their optimal nutrition. Therefore, we should try to encourage adolescents to participate in the school milk program more actively through nutritional education and government policy.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine the related factors of quality of life (QOL) among middle-male with chronic liver disease. Method: The participants in this study were 110 patients with chronic liver disease who were recruited from the outpatient clinic of hospital. Between March and May 2014, data were collected through questionnaires and medical record review. Data analysis was performed using PASW (SPSS) 19.0 program, and one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and enter multiple regression analysis. Results: The mean QOL of this study was 48.16/100. The significant correlates of QOL were anxiety-depression (${\beta}$=.33, p<.001), symptom experience (${\beta}$=.15, p=.001), health perception(${\beta}$=.31, p<.001), disease status(${\beta}$=.17, p=.022), spouse (${\beta}$=.23, p=.001), and these variables explained 68.6% of variance in QOL. Conclusion: The study suggests that psychological aspects are an important factor in explaining QOL of the middle-male with chronic liver disease. Screening and minimizing anxiety-depression could be effective strategies in enhancing QOL of middle-male with chronic liver disease.

Social network service is service that enables the human network to be built up on web. It is important to record users' information simply and establish the network with people based on the information to provide with the social network service effectively. But it is very troublesome work for the user to input his or her own information on the mobile environment. In this paper we suggested a system which classifies users' behavior using context and creates blogging sentences automatically after inferring the destination. For this, users' behavior is classified and the destination is inferred with the sequence matching method using Naive Bayes classification. Then sentences which are suitable for situation is created by arranging the processed context using the structure of 5W1H. The system was evaluated satisfaction degree by comparing the created sentences based on actually collected data with users' intension and got accuracy rate of 88.73%.

This study examined artificial joint replacement surgery for early intervention and prevention of the occurrence of delirium surgery. Data of study were analysed using the sample through the EMR (Electronic Medical Record) and after surgery to provide basic data. The subjects were elderly aged 60 years or more and the number of the sample was 821. Data were analysed by using SPSS 20.0 with t-test, $x^2$-test and multiple logistic regression analysis. The study results showed patients with artificial joint replacement surgery incidence of delirium was 13.5%, findings of these variables insisted that the main influencing factors of delirium were caused by age, fall history, physical activity, emotional status, body mass index (BMI) before surgery. The study suggested that the above findings are required for early intervention, early detection and prevention of delirium.
