In this paper, we proposed a forest fires prediction and detection system. It could provide a situation of fire prediction and detection methods using context awareness sensor. A fire occurs wide range of sensing a fire in a single camera sensor, it is difficult to detect the occurrence of a fire. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for real-time by using a temperature sensor, humidity, Co2, the flame presence information acquired and comparing the data based on multiple conditions, analyze and determine the weighting according to fire in complex situations. In addition, it is possible to differential management of intensive fire detection and prediction for required dividing the state of fire zone. Therefore we propose an algorithm to determine the prediction and detection from the fire parameters as an temperature, humidity, Co2 and the flame in real-time by using a context awareness sensor and also suggest algorithm that provide the path of fire diffusion and service the secure safety zone prediction.

The purpose of this study is to present the appropriate standby space for the mechanical parking lot considered parking queue. This analysis is based on the field-study by results of the influential factors on the parking queue of mechanical parking lots in the commercial area of Gwang-ju metropolitan city. In this study, the parking queue was analized through the simple modeling using Vissim based on average service rate and average arrival rate from the result of field-study. As a result of applying the field survey products to the theoretical queue model, no significant result was obtained when the traffic intensity exceeded 1. Therefore, parking queue was analyzed through simple modeling using Vissim, and the model for calculating the proper parking queue size of the mechanical parking lot by size was derived. The model for estimating of an appropriate mechanical parking standby space considering parking queue presented in this study is expected to be a criterion for considering the appropriate parking space of a new building, and also it can be used to minimized the traffic impact due to the parking queue by the lack of standby space.

Digital TV broadcasting's resolution or tone quality is very excellent than analog broadcasting and has many advantages including various multimedia functions such as home shopping, home banking, internet search, telecommuting, VOD, etc. In this study, it is essential to analyze the regional electromagnetic environment before Digital TV broadcasting, and therefore we analyzed Busan area's limitation using ETRI propagation model. For maintaining high-quality Digital TV signals, we measure electric field intensity wide and far in Busan including mountains area and high-rise buildings. Generally, it has lower value by a standard ETRI propagation model than simulated value about standard model, but distribution pattern are similar with it. Compared theoretical values with the measured results, they have similar values for flat area but very different values for crowded city area and mountains area So we conclude that ETRI propagation model and theoretical model are not suitable for Busan in a free space.

In this study, we investigated the quality characteristics of yogurt with different amounts(0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%) of Sansuyu(Corni Fructus) extracts. The yogurt products were evaluated for sensory properties, acid production(pH, titratable acidity) and the number of viable cells during storage up to 21 days at $10^{\circ}C$. The products containing 0.5% and 1.0% Sansuyu extracts showed the highest scores for color, smell, softness, taste, and overall acceptability. For the intensity characteristic scores, color, smell and bitter taste increased as the proportion of Sansuyu extract increased. Softness was lowest, but it was highest in the 0.5% and 1.0% Sansuyu extracts. During storage, titratable acidity increased while pH gradually decreased. pH was lower in the sample with Sansuyu extract than that of the control, and the titratable acidity increased with increasing Sansuyu extract content on day 0. There was significant difference in viable cell counts among the samples. These results indicated that the yogurt added with 0.5~1.0% Sansuyu extract was acceptable.

In this study, we investigated the effects of ripened tomato on the Baechukimchi fermentation, by measuring sensory, physicochemical, and microbiological properties during fermentation up to 28 days. The Baechukimchi, with various levels [0, 10, 20, 30%(w/v)] of ripened tomato, was fermented at $10^{\circ}C$. The product containing 20% ripened tomato showed the highest scores for overall acceptability, sour taste, texture, sour smell, and color. The intensity characteristic scores related to sour smell and sour taste were the highest in the control, and the texture score was highest in the 20% ripened tomato sample. During fermentation, total acidity increased while pH gradually decreased. The reducing sugar and total vitamin C contents of the experimental groups with added ripened tomato were higher than those of the control. Also, the time periods to reach maximum levels of lactic acid bacteria, by log numbers of cells and total viable cells, were more delayed in the experimental groups with added ripened tomato than in the control. Overall, the results indicate that a 20% addition of ripened tomato to Baechukimchi during fermentation can enhance sensory qualities and extended the palatable period of the product.

Indoor location-based services have been developed based on the Internet of Things technologies which measure and analyze users who are moving in their daily lives. These various indoor positioning technologies require separate hardware and have several disadvantages, such as a communication protocol which becomes complicated. Based on the fact that a reduction in signal strength occurs according to the distance due to the physical characteristics of the transmitted signal, RSSI technology that uses the received signal strength of the wireless signal used in this paper measures the strength of the transmitted signal and the intensity of the attenuated received signal and then calculates the distance between a transmitter and a receiver, which requires no separate costs and makes to implement simple measurements. It was applied calculating the value for the average RSSI and the RSSI filtering feedback. Filtering is used to reduce the error of the RSSI values that are measured at long distance.It was confirmed that the RSSI values through the average filtering and the RSSI values measured by setting the coefficient value of the feedback filtering to 0.5 were ranged from -61 dBm to - 52.5 dBm, which shows irregular and high values decrease slightly as much as about -2 dBm to -6 dBm as compared to general measurements.

The estimation of the fatigue design life for large welded structures is usually performed using the liner cumulative damage method such as Palmgren-Miner rule or the equivalent damage method. When a fatigue crack is detected in a welded steel structure, the residual service life has to be estimated base on S-N curve method and liner elastic fracture mechanics. In this study, to examine the 3D fatigue crack behavior and estimate the fatigue life of out-of-plane gusset fillet welded joint, the fatigue tests were carried out on the model specimens. Investigations of three-dimensional fatigue crack propagation on gusset welded joint was used the finite element analysis of FEMAP with NX NASTRAN and FRANC3D. Fatigue crack growth analysis was carried out to demonstrate the effects of aspect ratio, initial crack length and stress ratio on out-of-plane gusset welded joints. In addition, the crack behaviors of fatigue tests were compared with those of the 3D crack propagation analysis in terms of changes in crack length and aspect ratio. From this analysis result, SIFs behaviors and crack propagation rate of gusset welded joint were shown to be similar fatigue test results and the fatigue life can also be predicted.

Five types of coffee bean, which are usually imported and consumed in Korea, were roasted at $250^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and extracted by using a filter coffee machine. The physicochemical properties, functional components, and radical scavenging activity of coffee bean extracts were investigated. The pH of extract was the highest among the extracts and the soluble solid contents of extracts were $0.9-1.0^{\circ}Bx$. The acidity of the extracts was in the range from 0.46-0.55%, which was not significantly different from the control. Indonesian coffee bean extract showed the highest brown color intensity and contained the highest amounts of caffeine and chlorogenic acid. The highest total polyphenol content was found in Kenyan coffee bean extract. Coffee bean extracts from Indonesia and Kenya showed significantly higher radical scavenging activities than the other extracts. This study showed that coffee bean extracts from Indonesia and Kenya contained a large number of bioactive compounds and high antioxidant activity.

We report and analyze the Korean physicians' recent general strike over the implementation of the Separation of Prescribing and Dispensing Practice (SPDP) in which more than 18,000 private clinics and 280 hospitals participated. Utilizing game-theoretic models of bargaining we explain why the Korean physicians were so successful in organizing intense collective action against the government and securing very favorable policy outcomes. In particular, we highlight the role of distributional conflict among social actors in shaping the details of institutional reform. The introduction of the SPDP was a necessary first step in the overall reform of health care system in Korea. However, the SPDP was perceived to be a serious threat to the economic viability of their profession by the vast majority of Korean physicians who had long been relied on the profits from selling medicines to compensate for the loss of income due to the low service fee under the previous health care system. The strong political coalition among heterogeneous physicians enabled them to organize an intense form of collective action, the general strike. Thus, physicians were successful not only in dragging the government to a bargaining table, but also winning in the bargaining and securing an outcome vastly favorable to them. On the other hand, the lack of an overall reform plan in the health care policy area, especially the finance of the National Health Insurance and the need for maintaining an image as a successful reform initiator, motivated the government to reach a quick resolution with the striking physicians.

The evaluated physicochemical and sensory properties of freeze-dried Shingo pears(Pyus pyritolia Niitaka), cultivated at Cheonan city, prepared using different sugar concentration of blanching solution we evaluated. Sliced Shingo pears(5 mm and 7 mm thickness) were blanched in sugar solution(0, 3, 5, 7, 10%) and freeze-dried to make dried fruits snack. The firmness of the pear snack sliced in 7 mm portions was greater than the pear snacks sliced in 5mm pieces. However in sensory evaluation, pear snacks sliced in 5 mm portions showed higher scores. pH and titratable acidity showed no significant difference in the blanching process. Concentration of total phenollic compound in fresh pear was 3.7 mg% but freeze-dried pear snacks showed higher values at 15 mg%. Sensory evaluation tests showed that the scores for texture decreased as the thickness of the snack and sugar concentration of blanching solution increased; however the score increased(p<0.05). Color intensity and overall acceptability scores were highest in pear snacks sliced in 7 mm pieces and blanched with 7% sugar solution.
