Healthcare is a field where ubiquitous computing is most widely used. We propose a mining-based healthcare multi-agent system for ubiquitous computing environments. This proposed scheme select diagnosis patterns using mining in the real-time biosignal data obtained from a patient's body. In addition, we classify them into normal, emergency and be ready for an emergency. This proposed scheme can deal with the enormous quantity of real-time sensing data and performs analysis and comparison between the data of patient's history and the real-time sensory data. We separate Association rule exploration into two data groups: one is the existing enormous quantity of medical history data. The other group is real-time sensory data which is collected from sensors measuring body temperature, blood pressure, pulse. Proposed system has advantage that can handle urgent situation in the far away area from hospital through PDA and mobile device. In addition, by monitoring condition of patient in a real time base, it shortens time and expense and supports medical service efficiently.

In this paper, we propose a context-aware system using wireless multi sensor module to monitor the state for industrial factory environment. Wireless multi sensor module combines sensing values which are collected from each acceleration, pressure, temperature and gas sensors. Moreover, it delivers this data to server after being encoded by RS code. Thereafter, RS decoder decodes the values that are received from wireless multi sensor module and fixes errors which occur in wireless communication. Based on decoded data, context-aware algorithm sets critical range and compares it to the sensing values, if the sensing values are out of the range, an event occurs by the algorithm. At the same time, if there is another sensing value which is out of the range for standby time T seconds, the algorithm orders 3 steps-alarm to occur depending on each situation. Through this system, it becomes eventually possible to monitor machines' condition effectively. From the simulation, we confirm that this system is efficient to status monitoring of industrial automation equipment.

It takes quite a long time for an analyzer, such as gas chromatography, to measure a bulk property of a system, which prevents on-line measurements. Also, the cost of installation and maintenance is very high. Consequently, some other means is needed for on-line measurements of properties and the development of soft sensors based on process variables like temperature and pressure is of great interest. In the field of gas industry, the development of a soft sensor which makes indirect on-line measurements of gas compositions and flow rate, is in progress. In this paper, we proposed a hybrid inner model PLS which improved the prediction performance by taking into account the data structure, as an empirical modeling algorithm. When applied to a design of a soft sensor of a distillation tower, the hybrid inner model PLS showed better prediction performance than other methods.

Smart Factory requires real-time monitoring and analysis of all process processes for optimal production environment. Monitoring system for data collection from various sensors is necessary to make all production processes automatic. By storing and analyzing the collected data, we can check whether there are any signs of abnormalities in any machine or equipment. Thus, in this paper, an integrated monitoring system for smart factory incorporating a working environment monitoring system and an automatic storage system of measurement values was implemented. By using the automatic storage system of measurement values, it is possible to carry out reliable inspection in any place without misentry. Also, through working environment monitoring system using LoRa, production environments such as temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure can be monitored in real time.

최근 지표수-지하수 혼합대 흐름은 하천의 지형학적 및 생태학적으로 그 중요성이 인지되고 있으며, 이에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 혼합대 흐름 특성에 영향을 미치는 다양한 요소들 중 하상형태 변화는 혼합대 흐름의 체류시간 및 이동경로에 가장 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 하상형태는 혼합대 흐름 특성 분석을 위한 수리학적 변수로 활용 될 수 있다. 일반적으로 다양한 지형측량 장비를 활용하여 종횡단으로 하상형태를 확인할 수 있으며, 최근 온도 센서를 활용하여 장기간 하상형태를 모니터링 하는 방법이 제시된 바 있다. 온도 센서를 이용하여 하상변화를 예측하는 방법은 하상변화 측정의 지속성 및 효율성을 고려한 적절한 측정 방법 중 하나이다. 온도 센서를 활용한 하상변화 예측 방법은 하상에 온도 분포 센서를 설치한 후 하상 온도 및 수온을 일정한 간격으로 장기간 측정하여 기존에 제시된 공식을 통해 시간에 따른 하상 변동고를 산정하는 방식이다. 이러한 온도 분포 센싱을 활용한 계측방법은 하천에서 발생하는 침식 및 퇴적의 시간적 변화를 모니터링 하는데 매우 경제적이며 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 온도 분포 센서를 활용하여 시간에 따른 하상형태 변화를 계측하고, 측정 결과는 하상형태에 따른 혼합대 흐름체류시간 및 이동성 분석을 할 수 있는 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 온도 센서를 활용하여 하상형태 예측 및 하상 변동고를 산정하기 위해 한국건설기술연구원 안동하천실험센터 급경사수로에 온도 센서를 설치하여 하상 온도와 수온을 약 72시간 측정하였고 유량을 공급하기 전과 후에 Total Station으로 지형 측량을 수행하였다. 온도센서로부터 측정된 결과로 하상 변동고를 산정하였고 이를 Total Station으로 측량한 결과와 비교분석하였다. 또한, 하상 온도와 수온의 시간에 따른 변화 패턴을 확인하였다.

The Stonecutters Bridge (SCB) in Hong Kong is the third-longest cable-stayed bridge in the world with a main span stretching 1,018 m between two 298 m high single-leg tapering composite towers. A Wind and Structural Health Monitoring System (WASHMS) is being implemented on SCB by the Highways Department of The Hong Kong SAR Government, and the SCB-WASHMS is composed of more than 1,300 sensors in 15 types. In order to establish a linkage between structural health monitoring and maintenance management, a Structural Health Rating System (SHRS) with relevant rating tools and indices is devised. On the basis of a 3D space frame finite element model (FEM) of SCB and model updating, this paper presents the development of an SHR-oriented 3D multi-scale FEM for the purpose of load-resistance analysis and damage evaluation in structural element level, including modeling, refinement and validation of the multi-scale FEM. The refined 3D structural segments at deck and towers are established in critical segment positions corresponding to maximum cable forces. The components in the critical segment region are modeled as a full 3D FEM and fitted into the 3D space frame FEM. The boundary conditions between beam and shell elements are performed conforming to equivalent stiffness, effective mass and compatibility of deformation. The 3D multi-scale FEM is verified by the in-situ measured dynamic characteristics and static response. A good agreement between the FEM and measurement results indicates that the 3D multi-scale FEM is precise and efficient for WASHMS and SHRS of SCB. In addition, stress distribution and concentration of the critical segments in the 3D multi-scale FEM under temperature loads, static wind loads and equivalent seismic loads are investigated. Stress concentration elements under equivalent seismic loads exist in the anchor zone in steel/concrete beam and the anchor plate edge in steel anchor box of the towers.

This paper describes acceleration tests for reliability of semiconductors. It also describes AEC-Q100, international test standard for reliability of automotive semiconductors. Semiconductors can be used for dozens of years. So acceleration tests are essential to test potential problems over whole period of product where test time is minimized by applying intensive stresses. AEC-Q100 is a typical acceleration test in automotive semiconductors, and it is designed to find various failures in semiconductors and to analyze their causes of occurance. So it finds many problems in design and fabrication as well as it predicts lifetime and reliability of semiconductors. AEC-Q100 consists of 7 test groups such as accelerated environmental stress tests, accelerated lifetime simulation tests, package assembly integrity tests, die fabrication reliability tests, electrical verification tests, defect screening tests, and cavity package integrity tests. It has 4 grades from grade 0 to grade 3 based on operational temperature. AEC-Q101, Q102, Q103, Q104, and Q200 are applied to discrete semiconductors, optoelectronic semiconductors, sensors, multichip modules, and passive components, respectively.

In this paper, a fire prevention system based on a broadband powerline communication (PLC) system is implemented and a demonstration experiment is carried out to prevent from or promptly dealing with possible fires within the nacelle of a wind turbine generator system (WTGS). For this purpose, an inductive coupler having satisfactory attenuation characteristic in the frequency region for high-speed PLC is also manufactured. It is confirmed that the implemented system can monitor the environmental change inside the nacelle in real time by transmitting various information obtained by the sensors such as temperature, flame, and smoke sensor installed in the nacelle and thermal image recorded by a thermal camera to the ground control center through the PLC system. Therefore, it is, considered that the implemented system will significantly improve the reliability of the fire monitoring and prevention system of the WTGS in conjunction with the existing safety system.
