To develope more competitive products, lots of attentions are paid to the study of user participation in the process of product design. In this circumstance, the user participation at a usability testing phase is relatively active. However, the usability testing in the controlled laboratory has some drawbacks. for stance, It needs a lot of money, efforts, and time. Most of all, it is difficult to collect a vast range of data and gain a fast feedback Recently, to overcome these difficulties mentioned above, international usability testing has been applied. Especially, usability testing Contents through Internet is considered most effective one. Because it has a lot of merits such as easiness of collecting remote user, simplicity of collecting data, cost effectiveness and so on. With these merits, this study takes advantage of using a WWW to carry out usability test and to collect remote usability data. And a website was development for posting computer simulated product so that the remote users can test its usability through internet.

This paper introduces unmaned fully automation systems, which are applied for the CSTR(Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor) and SBR (Sequencing Batch Reactor) wastewater treatment system. The pilot plant is constructed in the country side which is little far from a main city. So networks and wireless modules are employed for the data transmission. The SBR plant has a local control and the remote monitoring system which is contained communication parts which consist of ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) network and CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) Wireless module. Remote control and monitoring systems are constructed at laboratory in a metropolis.

The present study presented the implementation of a remote control/supervision system for guard lamps used in public illumination with little endeavor by far for safe management, which makes possible to supervise the state and to control the functions remotely including electric safety elements. Especially, the developed system adopts the measurement algorithm for detecting resistive leakage current(Igr) flowing based on the phase difference checkable for sensing at a monitor, being allowable for monitoring at MMI and transmitter for data transmittance. To verify reliability about the algorithm to accurately detect Igr leakage current, the laboratory-based functional test was performed.

The second satellite in ESA's Earth Explorer series, the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission was launched into orbit at November 1, 2009. The SMOS will play a key role in the monitoring of climate change on a global scale using the payload of L-band synthetic aperture radiometer. It is the first ever satellite designed both to map sea surface salinity and to monitor soil moisture on a global scale, and will provide the important data to study the water cycle among oceans, the atmosphere and land. To introduce the operation of the SMOS, this paper shows brief summary of appearance and current operation.

A wide variety of applications of imaging spectrometer have been proved using data from airborne systems. The Compact Airborne Imaging Spectrometer System (CAISS) was jointly designed and developed as the airborne hyperspectral imaging system by Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) and ELOP inc., Israel. The primary mission of the CAISS is to acquire and provide full contiguous spectral information with high spatial resolution for advanced applications in the field of remote sensing. The CAISS consists of six physical units; the camera system, the gyro-stabilized mount, the jig, the GPS/INS, the power inverter and distributor, and the operating system. These subsystems are to be tested and verified in the laboratory before the flight. Especially the camera system of the CAISS has to be calibrated and validated with the calibration equipments such as the integrating sphere and spectral lamps. To improve data quality and its availability, it is the most important to understand the mechanism of imaging spectrometer system and the radiometric and spectral characteristics. The several performance tests of the CAISS were conducted in the camera system level. This paper presents the major characteristics of the CAISS, and summarizes the results of performance tests in the camera system level.

Because of the phenological variation of vegetation growth in temperate region, it is often difficult to accurately assess the surface conditions of agricultural croplands, grasslands, and disturbed forests by multi-spectral remote sensor data. In particular, the spectral similarity between soil and dry vegetation has been a primary problem to correctly appraise the surface conditions during the non-growing seasons in temperature region. This study analyzes the spectral characteristics of the mixture of dry vegetation and soil. The reflectance spectra were obtained from laboratory spectroradiometer measurement (GER-2600) and from EO-1 Hyperion image data. The reflectance spectra of several samples having different level of dry vegetation fractions show similar pattern from both lab measurement and hyperspectral image. Red-edge near 700nm and shortwave IR near 2,200nm are more sensitive to the fraction of dry vegetation. The use of hyperspectral data would allow us for better separation between bare soils and other surfaces covered by dry vegetation during the leaf-off season.

Considerable experience has been reported on the use of spectral data to measure the canopy biomass of dryland grain crops and the use of these estimates to forecast subsequent grain yield. These basic procedures were retested to assess the use of the general process to forecasting grain yield for paddy rice. The use of the ratio of a multiband radiometer simulation of Thematic Mapper band 4(.76 to .90 .mu.m) divided by band 3 (.63 to .69 .mu.m) was tested to estimate the canopy biomass of paddy rice as a function of the stage of development of the rice. The correlation was found to be greatest (R = .94) at panicle differentiation about midway through the development cycle of the rice canopy. The use of this ratio of two spectral bands as a surrogate for canopy biomass was then tested for its correlation against final grain yield. These spectral estimates of canopy biomass produced the highest correlations with final grain yield (R = .87) when measured at the canopy development stages of panicle differentiation and heading. The impact of varying the amounts of supplemental nitrogen on the use of spectral measuremants of canopy biomass to estimate grain yield was also determined. The effect of the development of a significant amount of weed biomass in the rice canopy was also clearly detected.

Surface solar radiation over the sea is estimated using Visible and Infrared Spin Scan Radiometer data onbord Geostationary Meteorological Satellite(GMS) 5 for January, 1997 to December 1997 in clear and cloudy conditions. The hourly insolation is estimated with a spatial resolution of 5$\times$ 5 km grid. The island pyranometer belonging to the Japan Meteorological Agency is used for validation of the estimated insolation. It is shown that the estimated hourly insolation has RMSE(root mean square) error of 104 W/$m^2$. The variability of the hourly solar radiation was investigated on 3 areas over seas around Korean Peninsula. The solar radiation of East Sea is similar to Yellow Sea. The maximum value of solar radiation is on June of year. The maximum value in south sea is on August because weather is poor by low pressure and front in June

Water pollution is becoming a serious problem in the populous cities and coastal areas near industrial complex. Sometimes, phytoplankton is considered as the most important element in the coastal environment. Phytoplankton is easily estimated by measuring chlorophyll content in the laboratory. In this study, to build up estimating algorithm of the chlorophyll amount related to the monitoring of coastal environments in Kwangyang bay, the correlationship the respective in situ observed data with Landsat TM and SeaWiFS satellite Image was analyzed. It showed that Landsat TM band 3 image has the highest correlationship with observed data, and based upon this result the monitoring algorithm of chlorophyll in coastal area was extracted. This algorithm will be an important for extracting and controlling environment elements in coastal areas in the future. And it has a significant meaning that it has established a spatial data construction in which satellite image alone could monitor the coastal environment.
