  • The rapid change of the health and medical environment and the globalization of medicine has driven doctors to converge and analyse of new and up-to-date medical information and decide to what to make decision for diagnosis and treatments in clinical practice. Medical environment goes with the changes with social environment such as rapid increase of aging population, changes of disease pattern, formation of new area of experts except doctors, government intervention for the medical system, medical insurance of the charges of medical treatment, a increased desire for human rights. These trends should be adopted rapidly to the education system for the students of medical school. The learning objectives of the preventive medicine was developed in 1995 and underwent necessary revision of the contents to create the first revision in 2006. However, the required educational contents of health promotion and disease prevention have been changed by the new trends of medical education such as PBL and integrated curriculum and the 2006 revision does not satisfy these needs. We formed a task force which surveyed all the Western and Traditional Korean medical colleges to describe the state of preventive medicine education in Korea, analyzed the changing education demand according to the change of health environment and quantitatively measured the validity and usefulness of each learning objective in the previous curriculum. With these results, for the good education for preventive medicine, each Traditional Korean medicine schools need more preventive medicine faculties and teaching assistants and opening of some required subjects such as Yangsaeng and Qigong. And future studies of the learning process and ongoing development of teaching materials according to the new learning objectives should be undertaken with persistence in order to ensure the progress of preventive medicine education.

  • An electronic medical record (EMR) is the medical system that all the test are recorded as text data. However, domestic EMR systems have various forms of medical records. There are a lot of related works to standardize the laboratory codes as a LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Code). However the existing researches resolve the problem manually. The manual process does not work when the size of data is enormous. The paper proposes a novel automatic LOINC mapping algorithm which uses indexing techniques and semantic similarity analysis of medical information. They use file system which is not proper to enormous medical data. We designed and implemented mapping algorithm for standardization laboratory codes in medical informatics compared with the existing researches that are only proposed algorithms. The automatic creation of searching words is being possible. Moreover, the paper implemented medical searching framework based on database system that is considered large size of medical data.

  • The management of emerging infectious diseases cannot help but completely depend on non-pharmaceutical interventions in the early stages of the outbreak. Consequently, South Korea has developed and implemented the 3T (test-trace-treat) models, non-pharmaceutical infection prevention and control (IPC) measures, in response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The IPC measures have gained global attention, rendering them to be essential in the development of a shareable, reusable, and applicable protocol for future pandemics. This study was conducted to identify the requirements necessary for standardizing the IPC measures. Three new work items of the 18 3T models were proposed to ISO/TC 304 (International Organization for Standardization/Technical Committee 304; healthcare organization management). Requirements for each IPC measure, identified by participating members (P-members) countries during the ISO ballots, were analyzed in this study. The three new work items were approved by the P-members countries after a 3-month ballot. There was a consensus that the three IPC measure models should be International Standards (IS). Other comments include (1) the models should include not only COVID-19 but also any respiratory pandemic; and (2) keep donning of level D protection at screening sites as an optional protocol, in consideration for the lack of personal protective equipment. Standardization is a systematic process of developing internationally agreed-upon wisdom and knowledge that consider and respect the diversity and universality of each country. It is expected that such standardized applicable IPC measure models contribute to global efforts to rapidly respond to a public health emergency of international concern during its early stages.

  • The designated professional institutions are individually establishing and operating information systems to manage R&D projects and information of researchers; however, systems of each institution do not allow sharing of information, resulting in researchers entering their information and achievements multiple times in each individual system. This paper investigates and analyzes the factors that hinder the research, and designates duplicate entry of researcher information due to the current system designs as the cause. This paper proposes an integration of personnel information as a solution to the issue and suggests a standard for the subject areas and management items for the integration of information. Ultimately, this paper suggests an establishment of a standard database model that is based on the proposed standard, a model that enables the convenient establishment of an information system. According to the results, it is estimated that this process will be effective to over 30% of estimated researchers whose information is entered in duplicate in the individual information system.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the reference data of the National R&D Report database built by the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information(KISTI) to derive problems and to find complementary points for the construction technical items in the system. To this end, we investigated the descriptions of references in the National R&D Report constructed in the KISTI DB and analyzed the construction process, guidelines, types, items, etc. Based on this, the appropriateness and accuracy of the classification results of the reference types constructed with the DB were checked. As a result, the problems of the items built into the system and corrections to the construction guidelines were derived. Through this, database construction can proceed efficiently and data quality is expected to improve. In addition, a follow-up study was proposed on the convergence service plan that can be provided in the future through standardization of technical regulations.

  • The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is working on the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standardization project, announced four algorithms that have been finalized for standardization. In this paper, we demonstrate through experiments that private keys can be exposed by Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) and Differential Deep Learning Analysis (DDLA) attacks on polynomial coefficient-wise multiplication algorithms that operate in the process of generating signatures using CRYSTALS-Dilithium algorithm. As a result of the experiment on ARM-Cortex-M4, we succeeded in recovering the private key coefficient using CPA or DDLA attacks. In particular, when StandardScaler preprocessing and continuous wavelet transform applied power traces were used in the DDLA attack, the minimum number of power traces required for attacks is reduced and the Normalized Maximum Margines (NMM) value increased by about 3 times. Conseqently, the proposed methods significantly improves the attack performance.

  • As the rapid development of quantum computing compromises current public key encryption methods, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the United States has initiated the Post-Quantum Cryptography(PQC) project to develop new encryption standards that can withstand quantum computer attacks. This project involves reviewing and evaluating various cryptographic algorithms proposed by researchers worldwide. The initially selected quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms were developed based on lattices and hash functions. Currently, algorithms offering diverse technical approaches, such as BIKE, Classic McEliece, and HQC, are under review in the fourth round. CRYSTALS-KYBER, CRYSTALS-Dilithium, FALCON, and SPHINCS+ were selected for standardization in the third round. In 2024, a final decision will be made regarding the algorithms selected in the fourth round and those currently under evaluation. Strengthening the security of public key cryptosystems in preparation for the quantum computing era is a crucial step expected to have a significant impact on protecting future digital communication systems from threats. This paper analyzes the security and efficiency of quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms, presenting trends in this field.

  • In order to prepare for the introduction of the E-Discovery system from the United States and to cope with some causable changes of legal systems, we propose a general E-Discovery process and essential tasks of the each phase. The proposed process model is designed by the analysis of well-known projects such as EDRM, The Sedona Conference, which are advanced research for the standardization of E-Discovery task procedures and for the supply of guidelines to hands-on workers. In addition, Machine Learning Algorithms, Open-source libraries for the Information Retrieval and Distributed Processing technologies based on the Hadoop for big data are introduced and its application methods on the E-Discovery work scenario are proposed. All this information will be useful to vendors or people willing to develop the E-Discovery service solution. Also, it is very helpful to company owners willing to rebuild their business process and it enables people who are about to face a major lawsuit to handle a situation effectively.

  • Recently, as a solution to adapt to changes in managerial environments, many companies introduce the BPM(Business Process Management) to achieve the standardization and optimization of internal/external company processes. The BPM is being highlighted compared to other managerial techniques for its diverse values such as fast responses to market changes, ensured transparency of processes, continued opportunities for improvements etc and the necessity is highlighted in the construction sector too. Therefore, this study compared the characteristics, effects of introduction and things to be improved between the BPMs introduced by various industrial sectors as an effort to establish a work process based managerial system in the construction sector and thereby drew 5 areas to be supported and compared analyzed the areas to be supported in various sectors by giving additional scores using the 3 scales method. This study is a stage to reflect the result in the construction sector where the introduction of the BPM is insufficient and by analyzing the characteristics and weak points of those BPMs introduced into various industrial sectors, this study expects effective BPM introductions and developments of construction companies.

  • Extrusion is one of the most important processes in polymer industry. The characterization of the polymer melt during processing will improve this process noticeably, One possibility of characterizing the actual processed polymer melt is the inline near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, With this method several polymer properties can be observed during processing, e.g. composition, moisture ormechanical properties of the melt. For this purpose probes for transmission and reflection measurements have been developed, withstanding the high temperatures and pressures appearing during extrusion process (tested up to 300$^{\circ}C$ and 10 ㎫). For the transmission system an optical bypass was developed to eliminate disturbing spectral influences and hence increase the long term stability, which is the prerequisite for an industrial application. Measurements in transmission and reflection produced comparable results (or blending processes, where the prediction error was less than 1%. An optimum RMSEP of only 0.24% was found for preprocessed polymer blends measured in transmission on a laboratory extruder. A transflection measurement allowed for the first time the recording of relevant NIR-spectra in the screw area of an extruder. The application to a (PE+PP) blending process delivered promising results. This new measurement mode allows the observation of the ongoing processes within the screw area, which is of maximum Interest for reactive extrusion processes. Due to economic reasons the calibration transfer between different extrusion systems is also of high importance. Investigations on simulated and real-world spectra showed that a calibration transfer is possible. A new method alternatively to the well-known direct standardization procedures was developed, which is based on an automatic data pretreatment. This procedure delivers comparable results for the calibration transfer. Overall this paper presents concepts, components and algorithms for the inline near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for polymer extrusion, which allows the use of it in a real industrial extrusion process.
