Many forest insect pests and diseases including pine needle gall midge (Thecodiplosis japonensis), black pine bast scale (Matsucoccus thunbergianae), pine wilt disease, and oak wilt disease, have caused serious damage to Korean forest for several decades. For the control of forest insect pests and diseases, synthetic pesticides have been widely used. Although effective, their repeated use for several decades has caused several side effects including environmental and human health concerns, undesirable effects on nontarget organisms, and disruption of biological control by natural enemy. Many Researches have conducted in order to find new and safe type of control agents to reduce environmental and human health concerns. Insect pheromone could be a good candidate for this purpose. Insect pheromone is a chemical that triggers a social response in members of the same species. Until now, thousands of insect pheromone have been identified. These insect pheromone could be classified according to their role. Sex pheromone is usually released by female and attracts male for corpulation. Aggregation pheromone is common in bark and long horn beetles, and used for mass attack on their host plants. In this presentation, we introduce recent research on insect pheromone of tree insect pest in Korea. Field application of insect pheromoen for monitoring and control will be also discussed.

Multivariate cumulative sum (CUSUM) control charts for simultaneously monitoring both means and variances under multivariate normal process are investigated. Performances of multivariate CUSUM schemes are evaluated for matched fixed sampling interval (FSI) and variable sampling interval (VSI) features in terms of average time to signal (ATS), average number of samples to signal (ANSS). Multivariate Shewhart charts are also considered to compare the properties of multivariate CUSUM charts. Numerical results show that presented CUSUM charts are more efficient than the corresponding Shewhart chart for small or moderate shifts and VSI feature with two sampling intervals is more efficient than FSI feature. When small changes in the production process have occurred, CUSUM chart with small reference values will be recommended in terms of the time to signal.

Automated manufacturing systems are applied to shop floors as tools for increase of productivity and quality and the decrease of manufacturing lead times and industry accidents. One of the most important issue of the present day is the application of Internet. The development of Internet technologies makes manufacturing enterprises break spacial barriers between users and shop floors, and collect various field data in remote sites. In this research, an Internet-based remote control system for a small-sized automated storage and retrieval system is developed for the purpose of real-time monitoring and control of automatic production equipment. The developed system has a client-server architecture and sends real-time images of the automated storage and retrieval system to clients by an CCD camera connected to a server.

This study was carried out to develop the technology to manage the growth of mushrooms, which were cultivated based on long-term information obtained from quantified data. In this study, hardware that monitored and controlled the growth environment of the mushroom cultivation house was developed. An algorithm was also developed to grow mushrooms automatically. Environmental management for the growth of mushrooms was carried out using cultivation sites, computers, and smart phones. To manage the environment of the mushroom cultivation house, the environmental management data from farmers cultivating the highest quality mushrooms in Korea were collected and a growth management database was created. On the basis of the database value, the management environment for the test cultivar (hukthali) was controlled at 0.5 °C with 3–7% relative humidity and 10% carbon dioxide concentration. As a result, it was possible to produce mushrooms that were almost similar to those cultivated in farms with the best available technology.

식당이나 가정에서 보편적으로 사용되는 음식물 처리기는 분쇄기가 부착된 형태의 장치이다. 분쇄 방식의 음식물 처리기는 배관이나 분해 필터 등이 막히면 교반기가 파손될 수 있는 문제가 발생된다. 아울러 사용자가 음식물 처리기 내의 수위를 확인하려면 직접 뚜껑을 열어 확인해야 하는 불편함이 생긴다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 이 논문에서는 분쇄 방식의 음식물 처리기에 기본적인 IoT 기술을 접목한 장치를 제안한다. 제안 장치는 기존의 음식물 처리기에 실시간 모니터 처리기와 자동 제어 처리기를 추가로 설계 및 구현한다. 제안한 음식물 처리장치는 사용자가 스마트폰을 활용해서 장치의 내부를 모니터링 할 수 있게 한다. 또한 음식물 처리기 내부의 일정한 위치까지 음식물이 채워지면 자동으로 작동이 멈추고 알람을 준다. 제안 시스템을 활용하면 사용자가 음식물 처리기 내부를 편리하게 확인할 수 있으므로 고장을 미리 방지하여 오작동 확률을 낮출 수 있는 장점을 가진다.

A food waste disposer commonly used in restaurants or homes is a type of machine with an agitator attached. The food waste disposer of the crushing type has a problem that the agitator may be broken if the piping or decomposition filter is blocked. In addition, there is an inconvenience that the user must manually open the cover to check the level in the food waste disposer. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a device that combines basic IoT technology with food waste disposer. The proposed device additionally designs and implement a real-time monitor processor and an automatic control processor inside the existing food waste disposer. The proposed food waste disposer allows the user to monitor the inside of the device using the smartphone. In addition, when the food is filled up to a certain position in the food waste disposer, it automatically stops and alarms. Using the proposed system, the user can conveniently check the inside of the food waste disposer, which has the advantage of preventing malfunctions in advance and reducing the probability of malfunction.

The objective of this paper is to develop a framework that integrates two important concepts: Statistical process control (SPC) and engineering process control (EPC). Most of the literature researches on integrated SPC/EPC systems are focused into continuous process mainly with Algorithmic SPC. The integrated SPC/EPC systems in batch process control have not received the same degree of attention. In particular, there is an only Run-to-Run (RTR) control methodology application, which is mostly focused in semiconductor industry. This paper is a first of its kind in integrated SPC/EPC systems that applied in batch process and it based on a data-driven quality improvement tools. The proposed SPC/EPC integration is performed continually in two successive phases: (1) Active SPC for the batch making advance, and (2) RTR control action between batches. Control limits for critical variables are developed using information from the historical reference distribution of past successful batches. EPC application is based on the development of progressive knowledge-based rules. For a validation purpose, the proposed approach is applied to data collected from an industrial batch alkyd polymerization reactor, which evolution is monitored by measuring the overflow water weight, the acidity index and the viscosity of samples withdrawn from the reactor. This industrial process is poorly automated, subject to several disturbances, and the batches have uneven lengths. The synthesis is stopped at the maximum yield allowed by the gelation point of the cold product. Through this case study application, process engineers at the company are now able to use a valuable decision making tool when the production process is affected by certain disruptions, with obvious consequences on product quality, productivity and competitiveness.
