스마트 센싱은 사물인터넷과 관련된 다양한 응용에 있어 핵심적인 역할을 하고 있으며, 그 중요성은 인공지능의 발전과 더불어 점점 증가하고 있다. 그러므로 스마트 센서의 중요성은 아무리 강조해도 지나치지 않다고 할 수 있을 것이다. 그러나 스마트 센서 관련 대부분의 연구는 특정 응용 목적, 예를 들면 보안, 에너지 절약, 감시 등에 집중되고 있으며, 미래에 필요할 다양한 유형의 스마트 센서를 효율적으로 구성하는 방법에 관한 연구는 드믄 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 센서의 효율적 구성을 위한 계층구조를 가진 컴포넌트 기반의 스마트 센서 프레임워크가 제안되고, 스마트 홈으로의 응용이 설계, 구현된다. 제안된 방법은 가까운 미래에 등장할 다양한 유형의 스마트 센서를, 제안된 소프트웨어 프레임워크 상에서 필요한 컴포넌트의 설계 및 개발을 통해 구성 가능하다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 또한 계층 구조를 가지고 있으므로 내부 혹은 외부 계층의 삽입을 통해 스마트 센서의 구성을 확대시킬 수도 있으며, 특히 외부 장치 계층과의 연결을 통해 사물인터넷 응용 서비스의 설계 시, 내부 혹은 외부 모듈별 독립적인 설계가 가능하다는 장점을 가진다. 제안된 방법을 사용하여 소규모 스마트 홈 시스템이 설계 구현되었으며, 외부의 서버와 연결되어 다수의 스마트 홈을 수용, 관리할 수 있는 홈 클라우드까지 설계 구현되었다. 각 계층의 컴포넌트들을 개발, 추가함으로써, 스마트 카, 스마트 빌딩, 스마트 팩토리 등, 그 응용의 폭을 효율적으로 확대할 수 있을 것이다.

A special purpose machine with two manipulators and quadruped crawler system is being developed to work at disaster sites where it is intended to quickly respond in the initial stages after the event. In this study, a terrain recognition module is developed so that the above special purpose machine can quickly obtain ground information to help choose its path while recognizing objects in its way, this is intended to enhance the remote driver's limited situational awareness. Terrain recognition modules were developed for two tasks (real-time path guidance, precision terrain measurements). The real-time path guidance analyzes terrain and obstacles while moving, while the precision terrain measurement feature provides more accurate terrain information by precisely measuring the ground in front of the vehicle while stationary. In this study, an air-cooled sensor protection module was developed so that the terrain recognition module can continue its vital tasks in the event of exposure to foreign substances, including scattered dust, mist and rainfall, as well as high temperatures.

Modular building is a fast-growing construction method, mainly due to its ability to drastically reduce the amount of time it takes to construct a building and produce higher-quality buildings at a more consistent rate. However, while modular construction is relatively safer than traditional construction methods, workers are still exposed to hazards that lead to injuries and fatalities, and these hazards could be controlled using emerging smart technologies. Currently, limited information is available at the intersection of modular construction, safety risk, and smart safety technologies. This paper aims to investigate what aspects of modular construction are most dangerous for its workers, highlight specific risks in its processes, and propose ways to utilize smart technologies to mitigate these safety risks. Findings from the archival analysis of accident reports in Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Fatality and Catastrophe Investigation Summaries indicate that 114 significant injuries were reported between 2002 and 2021, of which 67 were fatalities. About 72% of fatalities occurred during the installation phase, while 57% were caused by crushing and 85% of crash-related incidents were caused by jack failure/slippage. IoT-enabled wearable sensing devices, computer vision, smart safety harness, and Augment and Virtual Reality were identified as potential solutions for mitigating identified safety risks. The present study contributes to knowledge by identifying important safety trends, critical safety risk factors and proposing practical emerging methods for controlling these risks.

This study was designed to investigate the relationship between middle school students' smart media competency and online learning outcomes. The context of this study was on online inquiry-based mathematics and science learning environment, and four-hundred and fifty-five (455) 7^th to 9^th grade students in Korea participated in this research. To assess students' smart device competency, Smart Media Literacy Quotient (SMLQ) which consisted of 18 items regarding the operation ability of smart media and its application (14 items) and positive beliefs of smart media (4 items) was administered to each student. The findings of this study first showed that students' smart media literacy varied according to their characteristics such as gender, grade, class (subject), and socio-economic status. Female students' scores were higher in overall smart media literacy operation and learning ability of smart media than male students. 7^th grade middle school students represented lower smart media literacy scores, compared to 8^th and 9^th graders. Also, minority students were significantly lower in smart media literacy, operation and learning ability of smart media, and positive belief of smart media than the non-minority students. Second, overall smart media literacy and operation and learning ability of smart media varied among high, medium, and low score achievers in inquiry tasks. Low scored students in inquiry tasks were significantly lower in overall smart media literacy and operation and learning ability of smart media than medium scored students. Lastly, smart media literacy also varied by students' dropout/completion. Students who dropped out reported significantly lower scores in overall smart media literacy, operation and learning ability of smart media, and positive belief of smart media.

This paper proposes a new fault isolation methodology for a smart protective device which plays an agent role on the smart grid distribution system with the distributed generation. It, by itself, determines accurately whether its protection zone is fault or not, identifies the fault zone and separates the fault zone through the exchange of fault information such as the current information and the voltage information with other protective devices using bi-directional communication capabilities on the smart grid distribution system. The heuristic rules are obtained from the structure and electrical characteristics determined according to the location of the fault and DG (Distributed Generation) when faults such as single-phase ground fault, phase-to-phase short fault and three-phase short fault occur on the smart grid distribution system with DG.

This paper presents how users and operators of smart work centers think about benefits from and obstacles to smart work centers. First, this paper reviewed the previous literature to summarize benefits and obstacles. Then, in-depth interviews with users and operators were conducted to identify the current issues in smart work centers. Finally, a survey method was used to collect opinions of more users and managers and the co-orientation model was employed to analyze diverse patterns. This study found that users and operators mostly agree with the benefits from the smart work centers. However, they expressed various forms of disagreement over obstacles and ways to overcome the obstacles.

Recently, smart grid has been considered a very important new energy delivery technology, and one that can help ensure a cleaner environment by making use of information and communication technology (ICT) in countries around the world. The many technological benefits smart grid offers is expected to bring about a huge change in the electric energy supply chain. In particular, smart grid with advanced ICT is likely to allow market agents to participate in the decision-making process in the restructured electricity industry, easily facilitating Homeostatic Utility Control. In this paper, we examine smart grid as a market externality, and then illustrate issues from the commercial market perspective as it relates to electricity market design. Finally, our paper identifies some of the impacts of smart grid on electricity market design, which may possibly be incorporated into the evolution of the electricity market, thus ensuring market efficiency.

Novel self-illuminated smart windows were fabricated consisting of Cu-doped ZnS (ZnS:Cu) powder and polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC). This smart window shows not only switchable transparency but also self-illumination without any attachable luminous body. Its electro-optical characteristics, transmittance, and luminance were investigated in relation to various applied voltages and composition ratios. The optical transmittance and luminous intensity increased with increasing applied voltages. However, the optical transmittance decreased with increasing ZnS:Cu powder content. One of the self-illuminated smart windows, which was fabricated with 9 wt% of ZnS:Cu, achieved the optical transmittance of 60.5% (at 550 nm) and the luminance of 11.0 cd/m² at 100 V. This smart window could be used as a normal switchable smart window in daytime and light-emitting signage at night.
