The purpose of this paper is to investigate the basic data (e.g. education experience and awareness of the installation situation, and usage of indoor fire hydrants) for the effective planning, progress and improvement of fire safety education. For this purpose, we surveyed 198 participants and an analysis of the frequency and descriptive statistics based on the survey data was carried out using SPSS 20.0 for Windows. The analysis results showed that 87.9% of the research participants live in accommodation with indoor fire hydrants installed and that, among them, 17.7%, did not know their location. 63.6% of the research participants, had received fire safety education but, among them, 31.0% had never been educated about the use of indoor fire hydrants. The main type of fire education was instructor-led training, which represented 50.0% of the participants. We believe that the results of this paper will serve as a basis for efficient adult fire safety education.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of Pilotis space in the elementary school and its problems and to explore some improvement scheme. The subjects of this research include the elementary schools in Deajeon, Chungju city which have been established since 1990 when the pilotis first introduced. It would be the effect of the decrease of site area and the increase of total floor area of elementary school. In this situation, this study aimed to figure out the characteristics of pilotis according to their types- Entrance type, Courtyard link type, Hybrid type- throughout the questionnaire, interview, and document analysis. The investigative situation was performed by employing a sample survey of 9 schools whose types were different from each other. The sample survey compared and evaluated scale, location, functions of Pilotis, the physical elements of types, connections with surrounding circumstances and the use under each condition. This study found that the use of pilotis at the elementary schools was inclined to the user, the teachers usually use pilotis only for passage, while the students use it in many ways according to the individual property. Pilotis space represent the differences in satisfaction and utility according to its type. To improve the relationship of users at the pilotis space, Courtyard link type is to be suggested and also it needs enough area as possible. In this way the pilotis type of elementary school gives great effect to the quality and function for better usage of this space.

We proposed the context based user profile which is aware of its user's situation and based on user's situation it recommends personalized services. The user profile which consists of (context, service) pair can be acquired by the context and the service usage of a user; it then can be used to recommend personalized services for the user. In this paper, we show how they can be evolved without previously known user information so that not to violate privacy during the learning phase; in the result our user profile can be applied to any new environment without any modification to model only except context profiles. Using context-awareness based user profile, the service usage pattern of a user can be learned by the union of contexts and the preferred services can be recommended by the current environments. Finally, we evaluate the precision of proposed approach using simulation with data sets of UCI depository and Weka tool-kit.

Pricing for e-journals has become more complex than before-certainly much more complex than print pricing has ever been. E-journals charge either a fiat fee based on print, user, library size, usage, and combination. A survey of publisher's pricing structure found that print based model is popular followed by user based model. The current pricing situation is far from equitable and can be improved if publishers can be coerced to change their pricing practices. This study focus on a number of possible pricing models that may supplement and/or possibly replace the current print based model. With the possibility that its pricing will eventually be based strictly according to usage, may lead to the most equitable pricing model as well as the most efficient use of society's resources. Libraries can alleviate the pricing problem by encouraging library organizations and university consortia to exploit their potential monopoly power into a bilateral monopoly situation.

In recent years, in accordance with the rapidly increasing number of smartphone users, various social problems have started to occur. Examples of these problems are the overuse of smartphones and bad usage habits of smartphone users that can cause new social problems such as smartphone addiction and other smartphone related diseases. With the aim of preventing these social problems, this paper proposes a new smartphone addiction and disease prevention system. This system was developed by collecting and analyzing smartphone usage patterns. This proposed system analyzes the usage patterns and working hours of smartphone users in real time. If the detected smartphone usage patterns reach a dangerous level, the system will send warning messages to the user. This will enable users to recognize the unhealthy situation in advance by themselves. In addition, this solution could possibly prevent smartphone addiction and other smartphone related illness by preventing overuse and encouraging abstinence from using smartphones to the extent that it becomes harmful to the user.

Using Technology Acceptance Model and flow theory as our foundation, this paper investigates the interrelationships among social influence, individual cognition, flow, and actual usage in the Web 2.0 environment. According to TAM, users evaluate perceived usefulness(PU) and ease of use(PEU) of information technology(IT) in accepting the innovative IT. Along with users' cognitive evaluation(i.e. PU and PEU), in case of UCC(user-created-contents), which is one of the representative Web 2.0 features, flow also has a significant effect on users' usage. Accordingly, the current study involve cognitive elements such as PU and PEU as well as flow of enjoyable state during using IT in exploring antecedents leading to UCC usage. On one hand, we consider the effect of social influence on users' cognition and flow toward actual usage because the more users creates Web contents, the more long-tail situation prevails on the Internet. Web 2.0 becomes a kind of social phenomena. The empirical results show that social influence affects positively both PU/PEU and flow. Users' cognitive evaluation and flow have positive impacts on users' UCC usage.

It is the purpose of this study that is to examine the practice and awareness on the use of calculator and to find the method to utilize the calculator as the tool in elementary school mathematics. Recently, it is recommendes strongly to use technical tools such as calculator and computer for the quiltative development on mathematics education. But we prohibite the usage of calculator and do not have the policy to use the calculator in our country because we have little understanding about it. The following direction for educational development is focused not on the repeat learning through the written computation, but on the ability for students to choose an operator and to perform the task with their own objects and strategies. By using the calculator, We can do the followings : 1)to help the mathematical concept develop, 2)to expand the computational ability from written computation to both mental computation and computational estimation, 3)to use the practical value in the problem situation, 4)to reinforce the problem solving, 5)to obtain the interest and the confedence on mathematics. Therefore, we must endevor actively for the broad usage of calculator in the mathematics class.

DDS middleware transmits data packets through unicast or multicast method for discovering endpoints on a distributed network and exchanging information between endpoints. Depending on the communicating situation between endpoints, the transmission method which is used to exchange packets is already defined by the standard protocol. However, the predefined usage of the transmission method has a problem that the middleware does not deal with increasing usage of the system resources properly when the configuration of endpoint is changed dynamically. To solve this problem, we propose the scheme of selecting the packet transmission method in an adaptive manner.
