Round trip activity occurs discretely due to the abrasion of drill bit in the deep drilling project. Round trip has great impact on the drilling performance because it takes more time to change a drill bit as the depth goes deeper. Therefore, a reliable prediction technology of the round trip should be secured for feasibility analysis and effective management of the drilling project. Lee et al. (2013) developed the TOSA (round trip occurrence simulation algorithm) which can analyze the depth and timing of round trip occurrence at each abrasion state of bit. However, TOSA has weakness that it takes long time for simulation because the number of simulation increase exponentially as increasing the number of simulation section. This study developed the TOSA based round trip performance prediction module using genetic algorithm for simulating in a short time and verified simulation results.

With the recent surge of public interests in real estate markets, public demand on cadastral information including cadastral maps has been increasing rapidly. However, the torrent system that provides cadastral information falls far short of meeting public demand due to its main focus on government users. In order to reduce the gap between public demand and supply of cadastral information, a new business model is needed that fulfills public needs and at the same time generates profits for service providers. The main objective of this paper is to identify a potential business model that satisfies the above conditions. To achieve this objective, we have explored the unmet needs of public users in real estate transactions and examined whether the unmet needs can best be served by the resources and capabilities of Korea Cadastral Survey Corporation. Then, we have crafted a detail business model i.e., Syndication model, that includes value propositions, resource maps, and revenue and cost estimations. Finally, a plan is proposed to serve government users better with the financial surplus from the proposed business model. The results of this study can be useful for other similar areas including GIS, ITS and telematics, academically as well as practically.

Ubiquitous is a Latin-derived word meaning "to exist at any time and place" like water or air. In computing, the word "ubiquitous" indicates an environment in which users have access to networks without any limitation regarding computer networks or places. Important issues in building Ubiquitous Korea (U-Korea) are the social problems appearing with a rapid increase in the old age population. Nowadays, with the rise of the nuclear family, the increase in the number of elderly people living alone, and the change in the status of women, both wives and husbands are employed outside the home, and the relatives who would be responsible for supporting the elderly sometimes are on long or short business trips, and it happens that old people can't be looked after. Therefore the government developed a wireless paging system for the sick, disabled, old and weak so that when an emergency happens, by just simply dialing 119, an emergency aid center could take prompt action. However, the present wireless paging systems composing the under-layer of the emergency aid information system have some problems, such as, a lack of reliability, problems among terminals, mobile transmitters and receiving terminals, the users' refusal to admit the need for the system and poor operational skills, administrators' perfunctory management and checks, etc. On account of these problems, the system efficiency has degraded and therefore a system upgrade is necessary. In this paper, we attempt to evaluate the newly implemented SAFE119 system, a new wireless paging system seeking to correct the problems of the current system.

It is expected that hotel buildings will be large-scale, luxurious and multiplex according to the needs of modern functions. In addition, building users, who are many and unspecified persons, are short of information on the buildings, so that they may be injured or killed at the occurrence of fire accident. Therefore, in order to overcome such problems, hotel buildings need systematic fire protection facilities concerning particulars to pay attention to the safety on a fire and an evacuation. This study has investigated the following matters. First, it examined hotel use records, statistics relevant to fire accidents, a case investigation related to fire accidents, survey on actual performance of fire protection awareness. Second, it investigated the design planning matters of hotel buildings. Third, it demand to amend the law and regulations related to physical Protection after analyzing them. The purpose of the study is to protect human being and properties at the occurrence of fire accident, and to present basic material for design of hotel buildings to minimize damages and losses.

While images and aerial photographs using conventional satellites have the advantage of providing data in a vast area, there is a difficult aspect: the limitations of filming and processing data in a particular region at a desired time and the repetitive filming of a short cycle. With the development of many new technologies to overcome these shortcomings, methods of building cadastral information are changing rapidly. In particular, unmanned aerial vehicles that deploy cadastral information quickly and accurately using UAV have increased interest in technology that obtains cadastral information. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to suggest the application of cadastral measurement tasks in areas subject to cadastral measurement using UAV. To this end, the Commission decided to compare and analyze the accuracy of high-resolution images produced by observation area and apply them to existing cadastral work using verified images and cadastral data. In this study, we will analyze the applicability of UAVs to their cadastral survey by analyzing the current status of legislation related to cadastral survey and the technical characteristics of UAVs and propose technological, legal and institutional improvement measures for introduction based on them.

Silicon nanowires (SiNWs), due to their unusual quantum-confinement effects that lead to superior electrical and optical properties compared to those of the bulk silicon, have been widely researched as a potential building block in a variety of novel electronic devices. The conventional means for the synthesis of SiNWs has been the vapor-liquid-solid method using chemical vapor deposition; however, this method is time consuming, environmentally unfriendly, and do not support vertical growth. As an alternate, the electroless etching method has been proposed, which uses metal catalysts contained in aqueous hydrofluoric acids (HF) for vertically etching the bulk silicon substrate. This new method can support large-area growth in a short time, and vertically aligned SiNWs with high aspect ratio can be readily synthesized with excellent reproducibility. Nonetheless, there still are rooms for improvement such as the poor surface characteristics that lead to degradation in electrical performance, and non-uniformity of the diameter and shapes of the synthesized SiNWs. Here, we report a facile method of SiNWs synthesis having uniform sizes, diameters, and shapes, which may be other than just cylindrical shapes using a modified nanosphere lithography technique. The diameters of the polystyrene nanospheres can be adjustable through varying the time of O2 plasma treatment, which serve as a mask template for metal deposition on a silicon substrate. After the removal of the nanospheres, SiNWs having the exact same shape as the mask are synthesized using wet etching technique in a solution of HF, hydrogen peroxide, and deionized water. Different electrical and optical characteristics were obtained according to the shapes and sizes of the SiNWs, which implies that they can serve specific purposes according to their types.

Although the Dept. of Geography in Korea has contributed to the social development of Korea with a remarkable growth for a short period, their social status and influence have not greatly improved and the graduates in Geography do not have many job opportunities. The low social statue and the limited job opportunities of the Dept. of Geography in Korea was due to the failure of the creation of their demand and the expansion of their sphere in response to the social changes and developments of Korea. In France, the Dept. of Geography has raised their social standings through the suited curriculum system to generate their demand and enlarge their domain with the social changes and development of French. The Dept. of Geography in Korea also needs not only the expansion of sphere but the building of the proper curriculum system for the creation of demand.

Field experiment was performed from August 1996 to December 1999 to examine the performance of constructed wetland system for wastewater treatment in rural area. The constructed wetland system was installed in Konkuk University and the effluent from septic tank of school building was used as an influent to the treatment basin. The treatment basin was composed of sand bed with planted reed. From August 1996 to June 1998 the hydraulic loading rate was fixed with about 15.63cm/day and theoretical detention time was 1.38 days, and from July 1998 to December 1999 the hydraulic loading rate was about 6.25cm/day and theoretical detention time was 3.5days. It worked continuously even during winter time, and the sewage flowed without freezing even when average daily air temperature was below -1$0^{\circ}C$. Average removal rate of BOD , COD, and SS was about 70%, T-P removal rate was about 50.8% , and T-N removal rate was 23.9%. The reason for poor T-N removal might be due to high influent concentration and short retention times. At the later years BOD and COD removal rates were increased , and SS and T-P removal rates did not change significantly , but T-N removal rates were decreased. The effluent of the wetland system often effluent water quality standards for sewage treatment plant, therefore, further treatment would be required if the effluent need to be discharged to the public water. Wetland system involves relatively large land area and could be suitable for rural area. Therefore, utilization of reclaimed sewage for agricultural purpose or subsequent land treatment is recommended as a ultimate disposal of sewage for agricultural purpose or subsequent land treatment is recommended as a ultimate disposal of sewage in rural area.
