Through staggering advancements of technology and network as we know them as digital revolution, we have established a foundation of space in which we can express reality by eliminating the boundaries between expression, space, and movement. There are many ongoing approaches that aim to overcome the physically-fixed property of space where the mathematical-geometric notion of Voronoi Diagram is one of them. Although the repetitive increment based on self-organization during the process in which space is generated by the Voronoi Diagram forms a pattern and focuses on the formation, its pattern is not restricted to a single method of expression but evolves over self-control. The result of having analyzed spaces generated by the Voronoi Diagram in this study can be summarized as follows. First, the Voronoi computation method with self-organization property creates multiple levels, increments, and evolves through feedbacks among changes with the slightest order and in the absence of control. Secondly, after forming a pattern through such feedbacks comes the differentiation phase due to the presence of different properties. Thirdly, a space that has gone through the generation process retransforms through active interaction between changes and it obtains ambiguous boundaries and a repetitive pattern. This leads to an evolution of space through repetitive increments based on self-organization. Such flexible space creation is supported by various digital technologies where we believe a converging application of these studies, sciences, engineering concepts, and space design is and effective and new method in terms of space creation.

Space development has been led by the state due to huge investment, risks of development failure, and restrictions on international cooperation on technology development and transfer. For this reason, it has been developed mainly by some advanced countries and industrial network formed among them. However, Korean space industry is being promoted by the successful launch of 'KSLV-I' and 'CAS 500-I' and the space launch vehicle "KSLV-II" under development. Recently, Korea and U.S. agreed to end bilateral missile guidelines. Therefore it is expected that development of Korean space industry will be accelerated due to the disappearance of the constraining factors for the development of space launch vehicles. Accordingly, this study examined the development and formation of the Korean space industry through the framework of network analysis. Based on this, the effect of structural position in the industrial network as a resource on the performance of Korean space companies was examined. Panel analysis was applied. Through this study, ideas for fostering the domestic space industry and implications for national policy related with building an industrial ecosystem are derived. It contributes to the development of space industry in Korea.

In order for a latecomer in deep-space exploration such as Korea to quickly keep pace with advanced deep-space exploration countries in the mutually-beneficial space exploration market, it is essential to derive a deep-space probe reference model that can reduce development period and cost. In this paper, concept and configuration for the deep-space probe reference model consisting of basic, lightweight, and expansion types are newly presented, which are based on commonly required designs for various deep-space probes. The proposed configuration adopts modular design so that the expandability and design/implementation efficiency are improved. In addition, the electrical system design pursuing lightweight and expandability is also described, which is applicable to the proposed three-types of deep-space probe reference model.

In this paper, the column space and null space of the Jacobian matrix were obtained by using the pseudo-inverse method and projection matrix. The equations of motion of the system were replaced by independent acceleration components using the null space matrix. The proposed method has the following advantages. (1) It is simple to derive the null space. (2) The efficiency is improved by getting rid of constrained force terms. (3) Neither null space updating nor coordinate partitioning method is required. The suggested algorithm is applied to a three-dimensional vehicle model to show the efficiency.

In this paper, we address a position control scheme for a stage system, which is levitated and driven by electric magnetic actuators. This consists of a levitating object (called platen) with 4 permanent magnetic linear synchronous motors in parallel. Each motor generates vertical force for suspension against gravity and propulsion force horizontally as well. This stage can generate six degrees of freedom motion by the vertical and horizontal forces. Dynamic equations of the stage system are derived based on Newton-Euler method and its special Jacobian matrix describing a relation between the Joint velocity and platen velocity is done. There are proposed two control schemes for positioning, which are Cartesian space controller and Joint space controller. The control performance of the Cartesian space controller is better than the Joint space controller in task space trajectory while the Joint space controller is simpler than the Cartesian space controller in controller realization.

Modern interior design is expanding diversely, with the rapid development of technology and change of era. The basic of interior space that is rapidly changing consists of floor, wall and ceiling, and these are formed by materials, materials for structure or finishing materials. In the modern interior space, materials are utilized to present an atmosphere that meets the trend of the dissolution of post-modernism and the trend of minimalism. Accordingly, in this study, designers who take serious view on the relation of space and material, and the relation focusing on completed works, in modern interior design were investigated. The interrelation of the representation of each material, organic space, minimal space, and the space of Oriental fusion style were investigated through the works of modern interior designers, such as Karim Rashid and Ettore Sottsass.

Light is important as to say that it completes space and form. Space that is made by light is not only functional but it can be seen as a place where space and people communicate to each other. Recently mass media is embossed as communication method. Light is the most instant and affluent factor among what consists of the image of space to express sensitivity. Especially the artificial lighting plays an important role in the presentation of space in the mass media with the progress of technology. Therefore this study's purposes are to search how the artificial light present the image of space in the mass media and to suggest alternative methods to present the image with artificial lighting.
