In this paper, we have proposed Station Safety Management System to protect station accident. we establish a sensor part near an underground rail. If a passenger approaches an underground rail, at first, lamp is shining and warning sound is ringing. nevertheless he approaches end of underground rail, At the same time, lamp is shining, warning sound is ringing, this information transfer server and train using wireless LAN. We makes this system using low cost in comparison with another system.

In this paper, a system that detects driver's drowsiness has been implemented based on the automatic extraction and the tracking of pupils. The research also focuses on the compensation of illumination and reduction of background noises that naturally exist in the driving condition. The system, that is based on the principle of Haar-like feature, automatically collects data from areas of driver's face and eyes among the complex background. Then, it makes decision of driver's drowsiness by using recognition of characteristics of pupils area, detection of pupils, and their movements. The implemented system has been evaluated and verified the practical uses for the prevention of driver's drowsiness.

In this paper, a pattern spectrum component function is introduced for an oriented shape analysis and its properties are discussed. It can represent directional information of shape more precisely than the conventional oriented pattern spectrum. An adaptive distance function between two pattern spectrum component functions is presented to recognize different shapes in noise. As a practical application, the pattern spectrum component function is applied to warning traffic sign recognitions utilizing the adaptive distance functions. Favorable results are obtained compared to the oriented pattern spectrum.

The purposes of this study were to examine the coping behavior of the elderly in the warning phase of disaster and to explore factors influencing the coping behavior of the elderly. Data were collected from 130 senior citizens aged over 60 who are residing in Pyungchang and Injae of Kangwon province which had damaged by flood disaster in 2006. Perry & Lindell (1997)'s index, a series of six categories that represent coping behaviors which progressively approximate the action of evacuating in the warning phase of disasters was used. Results showed that respondents have high coping skills. Although Activities of Daily Living (ADL) has positive influence on the coping behavior, length of residence has negative effect on the coping behavior of the elderly. This finding proves the elderly are not uncompliant or uncooperative population in the warning phase of disaster. This result also emphasizes the importance of rapid and accurate giving of public warning system of disaster and necessity of prior notification of useful information about natural disaster and effective evacuation plan for the elderly.

In severe disaster situations, Emergency alert provide information for people to survive. However, the only device that can receive the Cell Broadcasting Service (CBS) of the Korean Public Alert System (KPAS), the Public Warning System (PWS), is Smart Phone and Receiving the disaster information is very limited. Therefore, this paper proposes a solution to the problem. First, we discover problems through the analysis of KPAS, and second, we propose Smart Watch and Navigation as devices to receive Emergency alert. The devices can receive disaster information through Bluetooth communication from Smart Phone and provide content such as disaster-related images and videos. Based on the proposed items, the application was developed, and as a result of the test, Smart Phone provided more disaster information like images and videos than current emergency alert, and the method of notification of emergency alert was varied. And Smart Watch and Navigation received disaster information successfully through Smart Phone, which also provided various disaster information like images and videos. The developed application has expanded functionally than the existing emergency alert and can benefit many people in emergency situations.

VANET has several different characteristics from MANET such as high mobility of nodes and frequent change of node density and network topology. Due to these characteristics, the network topology based protocol, often used in MANET, can not be applied to VANET. In this paper, we propose an emergency warning message broadcast protocol using range based relay node selecting algorithm which determines the minimal waiting time spent by a given node before rebroadcasting the received warning message. Because the time is randomly calculated based on the distance between sender node and receiver node, a node chosen as a relay node is assured to have a minimal waiting time, even though it is not located at the border of radio transmission range. The proposed emergency warning message broadcast protocol has low network traffic because it does not need to exchange control messages for message broadcasting. In addition, it can reduce End-to-End delay under circumstances of low node density and short transmission range in VANET.

Global Flood Alert System (GFAS) is an attempt to make the best use of satellite rainfall data in flood forecasting. The project of GFAS is promoted both by Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport-Japan (MLIT) and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), under which Infrastructure Development Institute-Japan (IDI) has been working on the development of Internet-based information system and just launched trial run of GFAS in April 2006 on International Flood Network (IFNet) website. The function of GFAS is to connect space agencies and hydrological services/river authorities in charge of flood forecasting and warning by providing global rainfall information in maps, text data e-mails and so on which is produced from binary global rainfall data downloaded from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website. Although the effectiveness of satellite rainfall data in flood forecasting and warning has yet to be verified, satellite rainfall is expected to play an important role to strengthen existing flood forecasting systems by diversifying hydrological data source.

From the lessons after the Nakhodka oil-spill in Jan. 1997, oil slick detection by using remote sensing data and assimilating the data to the simulation program is important for monitoring the oil-drift pattern. For this object, we are going to construct the oil-spill warning system for estimating the oil-drift pattern using remotesensing/numerical simulation Model. Additionally we plan to use this system for restorating oil-spill damage domestically, such as estimating the ecological damage and making the priority fur restorating the oil-spilled shoreline. This report is intended to summarize the role of geo-informatics in the oil spill accident by not only paying attention to the effect of information provision/information management via the map, but also reporting the interim result in part based on the details discussed in the processes of recovery support and environmental impact assessment during the Nakhodka's accident.

Asset prices decline sharply and stock markets collapse when financial crisis happens. Recently we have encountered more frequent financial crises than ever. 1998 currency crisis and 2008 global financial crisis triggered academic researches on early warning systems that aim to detect the symptom of financial crisis in advance. This study proposes a risk recovery index for detection of good opportunities from financial market instability. We use SVM classifier algorithms to separate recovery period from unstable financial market data. Input variables are KOSPI index and V-KOSPI200 index. Our SVM algorithms show highly accurate forecasting results on testing data as well as training data. Risk recovery index is derived from our SVM-trained outputs. We develop a trading system that utilizes the suggested risk recovery index. The trading result records very high profit, that is, its annual return runs to 121%.

The United States has deployed and operates a ballistic missile defense system to defend the homeland from ballistic missile attacks launched from direct and potential threats. The Missile Defense Agency has deployed the Aegis BMDs, Sea-based X-band radars(SBX), Ground-Based Interceptors(GBI), Early Warning Radars and THAADs. In addition, the Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii(HDR-H) will be deployed in Hawaii. The HDR-H is expected to improve defensive ability to ballistic missile threats in the Asia-Pacific region.
