For the purpose of optimizing poly-l3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production from Alcaligenes eutrophus, two-stage fed-batch culture was adopted. In this system, specifk growth rate was maximized during the first stage whereas specific production rate was maximized during the second stage. The optimal concentrations of glucose and ammonium chloride were 16.6 and 0.54 g/I in the growth stage and 20.0 and 0.07 g/l in the production stage, respectively. Proportional feedback control considering time lag was suggested for PHB production process and a simulator was developed for real-time control purpose.

Since wireless sensor networks consist of nodes with the constrained battery, energy efficient MAC operation is one of the important issues. Low duty cycle operation is critical to conserve energy in wireless sensor network MAC protocol. Some paper proposed a new approach to low power listening, which employs a short preamble to further reduce energy consumption and to reduce latency. But short preamble suffers from unfair channel access problem since there was no consideration for contention between transmission nodes. Preamble counting proposes a solution to each of these problems by employing node selection information. Simulation results show that the preamble counting provides an improved energy efficiency and fairness of packet delivery.

This paper proposes a transmission probability control scheme for guaranteeing fair packet transmissions in CDMA slotted ALOHA system. In CDMA slotted ALOHA system, the packets transmitted in the same slot act as multiple access interference, so that unsuccessful packet transmissions are caused entirely by multiple access interference. Therefore, in order to maximize the system throughput, the number of simultaneously transmitted packets should be kept at a proper level. In the proposed scheme, the base station calculates the packet transmission probability of mobile stations in the next slot according to the offered load and then broadcasts this probability to all the mobile stations. Mobile stations, which have a packet to transmit, attempt to transmit packet with the received probability. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can offer better system throughput and average delay than the conventional scheme, and guarantee a good fairness among all mobile stations regardless of the offered load.

Hot forging of aluminum alloy has the bad machinability due to continuous chip formation caused from the ductility The bad machinability requires a labor and a high cost to produce final products after hot forging. In industrial field, T4 heat treatment is performed to improve the machinability, and the annealing and the cold sizing are followed. In this study, a series of heat treatments are introduced during hot forging operation without T4 heat treatment after forming so that it improves the machinability with reduction of the number of operations and machining cost. Instead of T4 heat treatment, water cooling and air cooling are tried and compared to find out an optimum cooling condition

Micro igniter on the glass membrane for MEMS thruster was developed. The stability of the micro igniter by using a glass membrane with a thickness of tens of microns was improved. The micro igniter was fabricated by anisotropic wet etching of photosensitive glass and deposition of Pt/Ti for electric heat coil. The solid propellant was loaded into the propellant chamber without an especial technique due to the high structural stability of the glass membrane. Ignition tests were performed successfully. The minimum ignition delay was 27.5 ms with an ignition energy of 19.3 mJ.

This paper proposes an 8${\times}$8 bit parallel multiplier using MOS current-mode logic (MCML) circuit for low power consumption. The 8${\times}$8 multiplier is designed with proposed MCML full adders and conventional full adders. The designed multiplier is achieved to reduce the power consumption by 9.4% and the power-delay-product by 11.7% compared with the conventional circuit. This circuit is designed with Samsung 0.35${\mu}m$ standard CMOS process. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation.

HEVC CABAC binary arithmetic decoder operates in three decoding modes i.e. regular, bypass, and termination modes, where their decoding operations and time differ a lot. Furthermore, when renormalization occurs, its internal feedback loop induces large delay. In this paper, a binary arithmetic decoder was designed to solve this problem. In advance, it checks all range values with possible renormalization. When renormalization occurs, it immediately updates range value and finishes all calculation in a cycle. When implemented in 0.18 um process technology, its maximum operating frequency and gate counts are 215 MHz and 5,423 gates, respectively.

Plumbing of the plant project is an important discipline. Now workers on the construction site, carry hundreds of piping spool drawings and documents, record the Spool Stage data. Then, The data is input into the system or has been documented in the field office. Because of the work-flow, duplication work occurs. As a result, it is reducing the effectiveness of the Plumbing and causes schedule delays. Also, To manage the integration process, there is a problem, it takes a lot of time. Therefore, The study is conducted to design and implementation of piping spool management Android Application using QR Code. The Application will contribute to the management to the integration of piping work process.

극한환경용 소재기술의 발전은 새로운 기기의 설계 및 제작을 가능하게 하고, 이에 따른 고효율 시스템의 운전을 실현할 수 있게 한다. 청정 에너지 확보, 에너지 전환 효율 극대화, 항공우주 기술의 확보 등 21세기 신성장 동력산업의 주요 이슈들은 시스템 운전여건을 고온의 극한 환경으로 처하게 한다. $SiC_f$/SiC 복합체는 우수한 고온 성능으로 고온 극한환경에 적용할 수 있는 잠재성을 지닌 소재로 항공우주 산업, 방위산업, 원자력 산업 및 에너지 산업에서 적용되고 있거나 적용이 검토되고 있다. 일본은 OASIS (Organization of Advanced Sustainability Initiative for Energy System/Material) 주도로 FEEMA 프로젝트에서 엔진부품용 $SiC_f$/SiC 복합체 개발을 추진 중이며, 유럽연합과 BA (Broad Approach) 프로젝트를 통하여 핵융합로 적용소재에 관한 연구를 수행 중이다. 또한 미국과 TITAN 공동프로젝트 내에서도 $SiC_f$/SiC 복합체에 대한 연구가 진행 중이다. 미국의 일본과의 TITAN외에도 일본원자력연구원 (JAEA) 및 프랑스 원자력연구소 (CEA)와도 공동연구를 수행하고 있다. 프랑스 CEA는 고온가스로의 피복재로 개발을 수행하고 있다. 이외에도 유럽연합은 RAPHAEL 프로그램과EXTREMAT 프로그램에서 $SiC_f$/SiC 복합체 개발을 수행하고 있다. 또한 소규모이지만 $SiC_f$/SiC 복합체의 상업적인 판매가 일본에서 시작되었고, 가까운 미래에 범용적으로 적용할 상업적인 판매를 시작하는 단계로 발전할 수 있으리라 생각된다. 이외에도 미국 ASME는 고온 설계코드 개발을 위한 준비를 진행 중이다. 아울러 가속화된 제조공정 기술 개발과 설계코드 및 DB 구축과 같은 소재 적용여건의 성숙은 $SiC_f$/SiC 복합체가 상용소재로 적용될 가능성을 높이고 있으며, 개량 후보소재에서 현용재로 적용될 시기를 앞당길 수 있는 계기가 되리라 생각된다. 따라서 국내에서 이에 걸맞는 체계적인 투자와 연구가 진행되어야하겠다.

In this paper, we propose a new Low-Swing CVSL full adder for low power consumption. An $8\times8$ parallel multiplier is used for the comparison between the proposed Low-Swing CVSL full adder with conventional CVSL full adder. Comparing the previous works, this circuit is reduced the power consumption rate of $13.1\%$ and the power-delay-product of $14.3\%$. The validity and effectiveness of the proposes circuits are verified through the HSPICE under Hynix $0.35{\mu}m$ standard CMOS process.
