In order to extend the releasing period of granular formulation to approximately 20 days, the KC-6620-adsorbed granules were formulated with carriers and polyethylene glycol as adjuvant. The releasing rates of active ingredient from the formulations were evaluated in aqueous medium. The baked bentonite was found most effective carrier to sustain the release of KC-6620. Due to, however, low releasing rate of active ingredient after 20 days, bentonite formulation appeared to be of no practical for the short-term sustained release of KC-6620. The increased pore volume of bentonite granular formulation by adding pyrophyllite increased remarkably the released amount of KC-6620 from bentonite-pyrophyllite(4 : 6) granule up to 85% of total active ingredient incorporated. Addition of polyethylene glycol to the bentonite-pyrophyllite granule further increased the releasing rate of KC-6620. With KC-6620 content in the bentonite-pyrophyllite(4 : 6) granule, the releasing rate of active ingredient was markedly reduced.

Due to speech recognition problems in noisy environment, Audio Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR) system, which combines speech information and visual information, has been proposed since the mid-1990s,. and lip reading have played significant role in the AVSR System. This study aims to enhance recognition rate of utterance word using only lip shape detection for efficient AVSR system. After preprocessing for lip region detection, Convolution Neural Network (CNN) techniques are applied for utterance period detection and lip shape feature vector extraction, and Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are then used for the recognition. As a result, the utterance period detection results show 91% of success rates, which are higher performance than general threshold methods. In the lip reading recognition, while user-dependent experiment records 88.5%, user-independent experiment shows 80.2% of recognition rates, which are improved results compared to the previous studies.

This paper presents the SIC(Size-Interval-Count) prefetching scheme that can record the file access patterns of applications within a relatively small space of memory based on the repetitiveness of the file access patterns. Several knowledge-based prefetching methods were recently introduced, which includes high correctness in predicting future accesses of applications. They records the access patterns of applications and uses recorded access pattern information to predict which blocks will be requested next. Yet, these methods require to much memory space. Accordingly, the proposed method then uses the recorded file access patterns, referred to as "SIC access pattern information", to correctly predict the future accesses of the applications. The proposed prefetching method improved the response time by about 40% compared to the general file system and showed remarkable memory efficiency compared to the previously knowledge-based prefetching methods.

The existing formula for estimating the wave overtopping are mainly about the perpendicularly incident wave to the structure and wave overtopping formula for the obliquely incident wave are rare. Moreover, these formula present only the overtopping reduction factor(${\gamma}_{\beta}$) with respect to the incident wave angle rather than the spatial distribution of overtopping along the structures because the length of model is relatively too short for the wave to propagate along the structure. In this study, the wave overtopping reduction factor considering the spatial variation of wave overtopping along the vertical wall is investigated using the hydraulic model tests and the results are compared with the those of EurOtop(2007). The wave overtopping reduction factor is modified for ${\beta}$ > $45^{\circ}$ condition.

Caching and prefetching policies have been used in most of computer systems to compensate speed differences between primary memory and secondary storage devices. In this paper, we design and implement a Flash Cache Core Module(FCCM) on the YAFFS which operates on a file system layer for NAND flash memory. The FCCM is independent of the underlying kernel in order to support its stability and compatibility. Also, we implement the Dirty-Last memory replacement technique considering the characteristics of flash memory, and the waiting queue for pages to be prefetched according to page hit. The FCCM reduced the number of I/Os and the amount of prefetched pages by maximum 55%(20% on average) and maximum 55%(24% on average), respectively, comparing with caching and prefetching policies of Linux.

점착성 유사는 비점착성 유사보다 작은 입자 크기를 가지며 전자기적 점착력에 의해 연속적인 응집과 파괴의 과정인 응집현상을 겪는다. 응집현상에 의해 생긴 유사 덩어리를 플럭(Floc)이라고 하며 유사의 응집현상은 점착성 유사가 가지는 입자 크기, 침강속도, 밀도를 변화시킨다. 유사의 이동은 크기, 침강속도, 밀도에 영향을 받는다. 따라서 점착성 유사의 여러 특성에 관여하는 입자의 크기에 대한 충분한 이해는 점착성 유사의 이동을 파악하는 데에 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 점착성 유사의 여러 특성 중, 입자 크기 분포에 대한 특성을 분석하는 것을 수행하였다. 일반적으로 점착성 유사의 연구에서 입도 분포는 Log-normal 분포로 가정하여 사용되고 있다. 그러나 그 적합성에 대해서는 검증된 바가 없다. 따라서 과거 연구에서 조사된 점착성 유사의 입도 분포 자료를 현장에서 측정된 자료와 실험실에서 측정된 자료로 나누어 수집한 후, 표본에 통계학적인 방법인 적합도 검정을 사용하여 실제 어떠한 분포를 모사하는지 살펴보았다. 적합도 검정은 Kolmogorov- Smirnov (K-S)검정을 이용하였으며 K-S 검정의 결과가 유의수준 5%를 통과하는 경우 가정된 분포가 실제 표본을 잘 모사하는 것으로 판단하였다. 적합도 검정 결과, 점착성 유사의 입도 분포는 현장 실험과 실험실 실험에서 다른 특징을 나타내었다. 현장 실험의 경우 입도 분포의 형태가 지수 분포의 형태를 나타내는 경우가 많았으며 Gamma 분포가 우수하게 모사하였다. 실험실 실험의 입도 분포는 일반적인 양의 왜곡도를 가지는 분포를 그렸으며 GEV 분포와 Gamma 분포가 우수하게 모사하였다. 두 경우 모두 Log-normal 분포가 적합하다고 판단되는 경우는 많지 않았다. 그러나 Log-normal 분포에 위치 매개변수를 추가하여 3 매개변수의 분포로 모사한 경우 유의수준 5%를 통과하는 경우가 크게 증가하였다. 향후에는 점착성 유사의 입도 분포를 모사하고 사용함에 있어 Log-normal 분포를 무조건적으로 이용하는 것은 지양해야할 것으로 판단된다. 2 매개변수의 분포를 점착성 유사의 입도분포로 사용할 경우, Gamma 분포를 추천하며, 기존에 사용되던 Log-normal 분포를 사용할 경우 위치 매개변수를 추가하여 3 매개변수의 Log-normal 분포를 이용할 것을 추천한다. 또한 점착성 유사의 입도를 모사하는 분포를 개발하여 사용한다면 점착성 유사의 이동과 특성을 연구할 때 가장 중요한 크기 특성에 대한 많은 정보를 제공할 수 있다고 판단된다.

Ears collected from 500 regions were phenotypically observed for their ear and kernel characters. Characters studied included ear shape, kernel color, kernel density, ear row number, starch quality, pop corn and waxy corn, ear length, ear diameter, kernel length, kernel width, kernel weight, ear weight, and 100 kernel weight. The Korean local corn collected were mostly flint type and were very diverse in all the characters studied. The collected local corn would be very promising for providing good germplasm for corn breeding in the future.

Traditional technologies that are used to improve the performance of hard disk drives show many negative cases if they are applied to solid state drives (SSD). Access time and block sequence in hard disk drives that consist of mechanical components are very important performance factors. Meanwhile, SSD provides superior random read performance that is not affected by block address sequence due to the characteristics of flash memory. Practically, it is recommended to disable prefetching if a SSD is installed in a personal computer. However, this paper presents a combinational method of a prefetching scheme and a memory management that consider the internal structure of SSD and the characteristics of NAND flash memory. It is important that SSD must concurrently operate multiple flash memory chips. The I/O unit size of NAND flash memory tends to increase and it exceeded the block size of operating systems. Hence, the proposed prefetching scheme performs in an operating unit of SSD. To complement a weak point of the prefetching scheme, the proposed memory management scheme adaptively evicts uselessly prefetched data to maximize the sum of cache hit rate and prefetch hit rate. We implemented the proposed schemes as a Linux kernel module and evaluated them using a commercial SSD. The schemes improved the I/O performance up to 26% in a given experiment.

In this paper, knowledge based text to facial sequence image system for interaction of lecturer and learner in cyber universities is studied. The system is defined by the synthesis of facial sequence image which is synchronized the lip according to the text information based on grammatical characteristic of hangul. For the implementation of the system, the transformation method that the text information is transformed into the phoneme code, the deformation rules of mouse shape which can be changed according to the code of phonemes, and the synthesis method of facial sequence image by using deformation rules of mouse shape are proposed. In the proposed method, all syllables of hangul are represented 10 principal mouse shape and 78 compound mouse shape according to the pronunciation characteristics of the basic consonants and vowels, and the characteristics of the articulation rules, respectively. To synthesize the real time facial sequence image able to realize the PC, the 88 mouth shape stored data base are used without the synthesis of mouse shape in each frame. To verify the validity of the proposed method the various synthesis of facial sequence image transformed from the text information is accomplished, and the system that can be applied the PC is implemented using the proposed method.
