  • 최근 기후변화로 인한 강우강도 증대, 산업화에 따른 토지개발 등으로 인하여 다량의 점착성 부유사(Cohesive Sediments)가 하천, 호소 등 수자원 환경으로 유입되고 있다. 점착성 부유사는 하천, 호소의 난류 조건에 따라 부유하거나 혹은 응집, 침전하여 하상 저니층을 형성한다. 부유사, 미생물 및 각종 유기입자가 포함된 하상 저니층은 검은색으로 외관상 보기 좋지 않을 뿐 아니라, 혐기성상태에서 부패하여 수생태계의 건강성을 해치게 된다. 또한 미세 부유사 및 미생물 입자는 각종 중금속, 유기오염물질을 흡착하고, 조건에 따라 재용출할 수 있는 저장매체로 작용하기 때문에 수자원환경에 미치는 영향이 아주 크다. 특히, 수중 미생물(조류) 작용에 의해 생성되는 EPS (Extracellular Polymeric Substances)는 부유사 및 미생물 입자들을 서로 엉겨 붙게 하여, 부유사-미생물 혼합 응집체 및 저니층 형성을 가속화하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 EPS가 부유사 응집에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여, Xanthan Gum (Sigma-Aldrich, USA)을 EPS의 지표 물질로 사용하고, Kaolinite(Sigma-Aldrich, USA)를 수자원환경에 존재하는 대표적인 부유사로 사용하여 응집실험(Jar Test)을 수행하였다. 이온농도가 응집에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 수체 이온농도를 0.0001M NaCl, 0.001M NaCl, 0.01M NaCl, 그리고 0.001M NaCl + 0.1mg/L $Ca^{2+}$, 0.001M NaCl + 0.5mg/L $Ca^{2+}$, 0.001M NaCl + 1.0 mg/L $Ca^{2+}$으로 보정하여 응집실험을 수행하였다. 250 rpm 급속 교반 1븐, 50 rpm 완속교반 5시간, 침잔 1시간 후 응집체를 채취하여 응집체 이미지 분석을 통해 응집체 크기 및 형상을 측정하였고, 수표면 2 cm 지점에서 상등액을 채수하여 잔류 고형물 농도 분석을 실시하였다. 응집실험을 통하여 다음과 같은 결과를 도출하였다.. 낮은 이온농도의 경우, EPS가 큰 고분자 구조체에 부유 입자들이 엮어 응집되는 Sweeping Flocculation의 특징을 나타내었다. 하지만, 이온농도가 높아질수록 경우, EPS 고분자 구조체 내부 반발력이 감소하여 크기가 축소되고, 이에 따라 부유 입자 표면에 패치 형태로 흡착되었다. EPS가 패치형태로 입자에 흡착한 경우, 응집제 농도 증가에 따라 응집능 최적점이 형성되고, 이후 표면하전 역전이나 Steric Stabilization에 의해 응집능이 저감되는 형태를 나타낸다. 따라서,수중이온농도가 EPS의 사슬형 고분자 응집제의 크기, 형태(Morphology)를 결정하고, 더 나아가 응집능을 결정하는 중요한 인자로 나타났다. 따라서, 후속 연구를 통하여 생체고분자물질의 크기 및 형태 변화, 이에 따른 응집능변화를 면밀히 연구하고자 한다.

  • In order to find out the effects of the time and degree of defoliation on the seed yield, oil content and fatty acid composition of perilla seed, two cultivars, Namhae and Geumnung, were grown in two years, 1985 and 1987. Defoliation was initiated after 110 days from sowing with two-week interval. Defoliation degree was manipulated into four levels i.e. 0, 25, 50 and 75 per cent based on the total leaf area per plant. The results are summarized as follows: Flowering date, maturing date, culm length, culm diameter and branch numbers were not significantly influenced by the defoliation time and degrees, but by the cultivars. The higher levels of defoliation was made, the lower seed yield and 1000-seed were obtained, and either the earlier or the later time of defoliation, the less influence on seed yield were observed for both cultivars. Severe defoliation caused a significant decrease in oil content. The composition of unsaturated and saturated fatty acids was significantly decreased by severe defoliation (above 25 per cent). In conclusion, with a view to achieving higher seed yield and oil content with good quality, it is advisable to defoliate perilla leaf less than 25 per cent based on total leaf area at either or later growth stages.

  • The advancement of artificial intelligence on a global scale is significantly transforming life. In the field of education, there is a strong emphasis on actively utilizing AI and fostering creatively integrated talents with diverse knowledge. In alignment with this trend, there is a paradigm shift in AI education across primary, middle, high school, as well as university and graduate education. Leading AI schools and specialized high schools are dedicated to enhancing students' AI capabilities, while universities integrate AI into software courses or establish new AI departments to nurture talent. In AI-integrated education graduate programs, national efforts are underway to educate instructors from various disciplines on applying AI technology to the curriculum. In this context, specialized high schools are also restructuring their departments to cultivate technological talent in AI, tailored to students' characteristics and career paths. While the current education focuses primarily on the fundamental concepts and technologies of AI, there is a need to address the aspect of developing practical problem-solving skills. Therefore, this research aims to compare and analyze essential educational courses in AI-leading schools, AI-integrated high schools, AI high schools, university AI departments, and AI-integrated education graduate programs. The goal is to propose the necessary educational courses for AI education in specialized high schools, with the expectation that a more advanced curriculum in AI education can be established in specialized high schools through this effort.

  • Melanin pigments are abundantly distributed in mammalian skin, hair, eyes, and nervous system. Under normal physiological conditions, melanin protects the skin against various environmental stresses and acts as a physiological redox buffer to maintain homeostasis. However, abnormal melanin accumulation results in various hyperpigmentation conditions, such as chloasma, freckles, senile lentigo, and inflammatory pigmentation. Tyrosinase, a copper-containing enzyme, plays an important role in the regulation of the melanin pigment biosynthetic pathway. Although several whitening agents based on tyrosinase inhibition have been developed, their side effects, such as allergies, DNA damage, mutagenesis, and cytotoxicity of melanocytes, limit their applications. In this study, we synthesized 4-chromanone derivatives (MHY compounds) and investigated their ability to inhibit tyrosinase activity. Of these compounds, (E)-3-(4-hydroxybenzylidene)chroman-4-one (MHY1294) more potently inhibited the enzymatic activity of tyrosinase (IC50 = 5.1±0.86 μM) than kojic acid (14.3±1.43 μM), a representative tyrosinase inhibitor. In addition, MHY1294 showed competitive inhibitory action at the catalytic site of tyrosinase and had greater binding affinity at this site than kojic acid. Furthermore, MHY1294 effectively inhibited α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH)-induced melanin synthesis and intracellular tyrosinase activity in B16F10 melanoma cells. The results of the present study indicate that MHY1294 may be considered as a candidate pharmacological agent and cosmetic whitening ingredient.

  • 오늘날 영어교육은 교과과정령에 엄연히 명시된 네 가지 기능(four skills) 즉 듣기, 말하기, 원기, 쓰기라는 정당하고도 보편 타당성 있는 명분 하에 어떻게 가르쳐 왔는가 를 반문해 보면 많은 아쉬움이 남는다. 그간 6년간의 중등과정, 심지어는 대학에서 환 두해까지 영어를 이수한 사람틀 중에는 문자를 통해서는 상당한 수준, 그것도 영어 토박이들조차 놀랄 정도의 영어를 이해하지만, 소리를 통해 들을 때는 ---말하는 것은 두말 할 것도 없고---아주 간단한 내용의 영어조차 알아듣기 힘든 경험을 한 사람이 많다는 것은 부인할 수 없는 사실이다. 그 이유는 명백하다. 즉, 문자를 대할 때는 시각적 자극의 형태가 두뇌 속에 저장된 정보---가공할 문법적 지식---와 일치하기 때문에 쉽게 이해를 할 수 있는 반면, 소리를 들을 때는 청각적 자극의 형태가 두뇌 속에 저장된 정보---극히 불완전한 발음사전, 또는 모국어의 음운체계에 의한 영어발음--- 와 차이가 있기 때문일 것이다. 그러므로 적어도 말소리를 매체로 하는 의사소통에 있어서는 영어의 본토박이 발음을 정확히, 아니면 적어도 매우 근접하게 나마 터득하여(습관화하여)두뇌에 저장하는 일이 가장 중요한 일이다. 따라서 영어교사는 모국어의 음운체계에 대한 정확하고도 상세한 지식을 토대로 하여 영어의 음운체계와 '언어학적으로 의미 있는 (linguistically significant)' 대초분석의 방법으로 발음을 지도한다면 보다 나은 학습효과를 기대할 수 있을 것이다. 일반적으로 모국어의 발음이 외국어의 발음에 간섭을 유발하는 경우는 다음과 같다. 1. 분절음체계가 서로 다를 때 2. 한 언어의 음소가 다른 언어의 이음(allophone)일 때 3. 유사한 음의 조음장소와 방법 이 다를 때 4. 분절음의 분포 또는 배열이 다를 때 5. 음운현상이 다를 때 6. 언어의 리듬이 다를 때 위의 여섯 가지 경우를 중심으로 영어와 한국어의 발음특성을 대조하여 '낯선 말투(foreign accent)' 또는 발음오류를 최소로 줄이는 것이 영어교사의 일차적인 목표이다.

  • ISPs and Enterprises are equipping their networks with sufficiently high speed facilities and provide large bandwidths members. However the high speed enterprise network does not have satisfying end-to-end network performance within the network in spite of under utilization. The root cause of this performance degradation is a micro-congestion, which is a short-live event of traffic congestion. A micro-congestion causes packet loss, delay and packet reodering, and finally results in end-to-end network performance degradation. In this paper, we propose a micro-congestion detection method and find out the characteristics of performance degradation by analyzing traffic archives which is collected from a network link when a micro-congestion occurs.

  • In this paper, we consider the two computer intensive methods for extended Euclidean algdrithm. Two methods we propose are C-programming based approach and Microsoft excel based method, respectively. Thses methods are applied to the derivation of greatest commnon devisor, multiplicative inverse for modular operation and the solution of diophantine equation. Concrete investigation for extended Euclidean algorithm with the computer intensive process is given. For the application of extended Euclidean algorithm, we consider the RSA encrytion method which is still popular recently.

  • A dialetheic approach to the sorites paradox is to understand a borderline case as a true contradiction. In order to accommodate this approach, the possibility of an alternative that does not involve a contradiction should be considered first. Beall presents an alternative that has all virtues of dialetheic solution without contradiction. I do not think his alternative has no contradiction. Using the inclosure schema I will show it. Furthermore, I will show that all alternatives which do not accept the existence of cut-off point imply a contradiction. This means that we have to accept a true contradiction as long as we accept the intuition of vagueness, especially, what is called 'tolerance'.

  • Purpose: This was a methodological study that aimed to develop a measurement scale for aging anxiety among middle-aged women. Methods: In this study, construct factors were extracted, and a conceptual framework was established through an extensive literature review and in-depth interviews with middle-aged women. Under the conceptual framework, 44 preliminary items were constructed, and a preliminary scale of 25 items was completed after two rounds of expert validation and item review. For this study, data were collected from 201 women aged 40~59 years, and the construct validity and reliability of the preliminary scale were verified. Results: To verify the construct validity, exploratory factor analysis was conducted. Four factors containing 19 items were extracted. Concurrent validity of the developed scale was verified with Pearson's correlation analysis. The final scale comprised 4 factors ("Social valueless", "Physical weakness", "Concern about changes in appearance", and "Expectations of old age") and 19 items. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ value was .91. Conclusion: The scale for measuring aging anxiety in middle-aged women developed in this study validly reflected the peculiarities of aging anxiety in middle-aged women, who experience many physical, emotional, and social changes. The scale can be said to reflect the cultural background, as it reflected real experiences gained through in-depth interviews with middle-aged women.

  • The commonly used delivery system for online merchandise has potential problems, not only missing but also criminal case. Also, the contemporary Kiosk type approach for delivery system has some problems in an initial installation cost, expense of management system and especially security weaknesses in the wireless communication. To resolve these issues, this paper is proposing a securely unmaned smart locker system that can handle up to 64 parcels. This is easily controlled and monitored by a smartphone. In addition to the system, an algorithm is proposed to make the security of wireless communications better. Finally, a method is proposed to minimize the cost of delivery by using centralized server.
