Web based simulation service is actively utilized to computably analyze various kinds of phenomena in real world according to progress of computing technology and spread of Network. However it is hard to share data and information among users on the services, because most of web based simulation services do not share and open simulation processing information and results. In this paper, we design a simulation provenance data sharing service on EDISON_CFD (EDucation-research Integration Simulation On the Net for Computational Fluid Dynamics) to share the calculated simulation performance information. To store and share the simulation processing information, we define the simulation processing step as "Problem ${\rightarrow}$ Plan, Design ${\rightarrow}$ Mesh ${\rightarrow}$ Simulation performance ${\rightarrow}$ Result ${\rightarrow}$ Report." Users can understand a problem solving method through a computer simulation by searching the simulation performance information with Search/Share API of the store. Besides, this opened simulation information can reduce the waste of calculation resource to process same simulation jobs.

In a traditional customer support environment, mainly call centers or service centers are responsible for receiving inquiries from their customers via telephone calls. Due to the rapid growth of Internet with its widespread acceptance and accessibility, means of communication with customers in the traditional customer support center, such as telephones, letters, and direct-visiting, have been replaced by e-mails and bulletin board systems (BBSs) using the Internet constantly. BBSs are basically question and answer systems, they require some lead time to get answer from administrator. To reduce lead time, BBSs enable remote customers or users to log on and tap into a knowledge database that is generally formatted in the form of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) that provide answers and solutions to the common problems. And, many different types of the questions are mixed on the BBS. It is a burden to administrator. To build FAQs and to support BBS adminstrator, a supporting tool which is to categorize questions is helpful. In this research, we suggest an interactive question categorizing methodology which consists of steps to present question using keywords, identifying keywords' affinity, computing similarity among questions, and clustering questions. This methodology allows users to interact iteratively for clear manifestation of ambiguous questions. We also developed a prototype system, IQC (interactive question categorizer) and evaluated its performance using the comparison experiments with other systems. IQC is not a general purposed system, but it produces a good result in a given specific domain.

Recently, due to the large-scale damage of natural disasters caused by global climate change, a monitoring system applying remote sensing technology is being constructed in disaster areas. Among remote sensing platforms, the drone has been actively used in the private sector due to recent technological developments, and has been applied in the disaster areas owing to advantages such as timeliness and economical efficiency. This paper deals with the development of a preprocessing system that can map the drone image data in a near-real time manner as a basis for constructing the disaster monitoring system using the drones. For the research purpose, our system is based on the SURF algorithm which is one of the computer vision technologies. This system aims to performs the desired correction through the feature point matching technique between reference images and shot images. The study area is selected as the lower part of the Gahwa River and the Daecheong dam basin. The former area has many characteristic points for matching whereas the latter area has a relatively low number of difference, so it is possible to effectively test whether the system can be applied in various environments. The results show that the accuracy of the geometric correction is 0.6m and 1.7m respectively, in both areas, and the processing time is about 30 seconds per 1 scene. This indicates that the applicability of this study may be high in disaster areas requiring timeliness. However, in case of no reference image or low-level accuracy, the results entail the limit of the decreased calibration.

The primary purposes of this study are to understand a fundamental effects of electro-deposition on reinforcing steel in saturated Ca(OH)2 electrolyte, and evaluate the corrosion rates of rebars under cyclic 3wt.%NaCl immersion and dry corrosion environment. The three cement mortar specimens with cover thickness 5, 10 and 30mm, were prepared in the experiment. To monitor the corrosion rates of rebars in mortar, the three cement mortar specimens were exposed to 110 wet-drying cycles(8-hour-immersion in 3wt.%NaCl and 16-hour-drying in a room temperature) in the laboratory. During the wet-dry cycles, the polarization resistance, Rp, and solution resistance, Rs, were continuously measured. The instantaneous corrosion rates of rebars on the effect of electro-depositing with sat. Ca(OH)2 electrolyte were estimated from obtained R-1p and degrees of wetness were estimated from Rs values. From the experimental results, the corrosion rates of rebars were greatly accelerated by wet/dry cycles. During the mortars exposed to drying condition, the large increases in the corrosion rates were showed at all rebar surfaces in three mortar specimen, attributed from the accelerated reduction rates of dissolved oxygen in drying process. However, the corrosion rates on rebar surface electrochemically deposited with sat. Ca(OH)2 electrolyte showed the clear decreases, caused by calcium deposits in the porous rust layer.

Though the cultivation history of soybean in Korea is relatively long, taxonomical study on symbiont nodule bacteria, Rhizobium japonicum is not carried out yet systematically. This work was for the taxonomical study on Korean native R. japonicum by recognizing isolates seroimmunologically as well as for the elucidation of its affinity with host soybean variety. Twenty seven isolates from 13 soybean cultivars cultivated at Seoul National University's experiment field and 6 strains of R. japonicum preserved in our laboratory have been tested. Tube agglutination test, agglutinin adsorption test, and gel immune diffusion test were used. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Twenty five isolates and strains of R. japonicum among 33 were classified into 4 serogroups and identified as indivisual serotype. 2. Two isolates isolated from Hill and Milyang cultivars, 2 isolates from Bangsa and Jangbaek, and 4 isolates from Paldal, Sae-al, and Jangbaek were identified as the same serotype respectively. 3. Seroimmunological tests may be adapted for the elucidation of the affinities between the strains and soybean cultivars as well as strain recognition and systematic classification of Korean native R. japonicum.

농산물의 품질 및 성분을 측정하는데 있어 기존의 화학적 분석 방식은 정밀도가 높으나 측정에 소요되는 시간과 비용이 많이 들어, 현장 적용하기에는 한계가 있다. 일반적으로 근적외선 분광 분석(Near Infra Red Spectroscopy, NIRS) 방법은 가공 과정에 따라 빠르게 변화되는 단백질 조성 및 수분함량 측정 등에 이용되고 있다. 분석에 소요 시간이 많이 걸리는 켈달법(Kjeldahi method)에 비해 NIR 분광 분석을 통한 보정으로 연속적인 모니터링이 가능하다. 본 연구에서 사용된 시료를 고정시키기 위한 프레임을 제작한 후 NIR센서와 광원인 LED의 각도를 고정시키고 측정 대상체인 사절된 감자 크기에 따라 시료를 고정시킬 수 있는 프레임을 반사면에 위치시켰다. 확산 반사법을 이용하여 프레임에 씨감자 시료를 고정 시킨 후 백색 LED를 이용하여 감자 표면에 빛을 반사시켜 3일 동안 12시간 마다 해당 시료들(열처리, 비누용액 침지, 생감자)의 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 해당 시료들은 측정 기간 동안 저온상태($4^{\circ}C$)와 실온상태($20^{\circ}C$)에서 보관되었다. 실험 결과는 파장대 145nm에서 저온상태에서 보관된 생감자는 시간경과에 따른 흡광도의 결정 계수값($r^2$)은 0.98 이었다. 이는 감자가 저온에서 생감자의 상태 변화가 일어나고 있다는 것을 의미하고 파장대 145nm에서 시간에 따른 저온상태에서 보관한 감자의 상태 변화 예측이 가능함을 의미한다. 비누용액에 침지시킨 후 실온에 보관한 감자는 시간이 경과함에 따라 파장이 증가함에 따라 흡광도가 증가하였다. 이는 감자에 들어있는 Polyphenol Oxidase 함량 변화로 갈변 현상이 일어난 것을 알 수 있다. 또한 실온에서 보관한 생감자도 시간 경과에 따라 갈변 현상이 일어났지만 용액에 침지시킨 감자보다는 갈변 현상이 36시간 이후로 발견되었다. 열처리 후 실온에서 보관한 감자의 경우에는 갈변현상이 나타나지 않았다. 저온상태에서 보관한 감자시료들 모두 갈변형상이 나타나지 않았지만, 24시간이 지난 후 용액에 침지시킨 감자는 갈변 현상이 발생되었다. 생감자와 열처리한 감자는 시간 경과에 따른 갈변현상이 일어나지 않았으므로, 감자의 갈변현상은 감자의 표면 처리 방법에 국한되지 않고 온도에 영향을 더 많이 받는다는 것을 나타내고 있다. 본 연구는 향후 감자의 품질 및 성분 측정에서 간편하게 사용될 수 있는 감자의 품질 계측 기술에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

Silica($SiO_2$) thin film was synthesized by a low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition(LPMOCVD) using organic silane compound. Triethyl orthosilicate was used as a source material. Operation pressure was 1~100 torr at outlet of the reactor and deposition temperature was $600{\sim}900^{\circ}C$. The experimental results showed that the high reaction temperature and high source gas concentration led to higher growth rate of $SiO_2$. The step coverage of films on micro-scale trenches was fairly good, which resulted from the phenomena that the condensed oligomers flow into the trenches. We estimated a reaction path that the source gas polymerizes and produces oligomers (dimer, trimer, tetramer, etc.), which diffuse and condense on the solid surface. The chemical species in the gas phase at the outlet of reactor tube were analyzed by quadrapole mass spectrometer. The peaks, assigned to be monomer, dimer of source gas and geavier molecules, were observed at 650 or $700^{\circ}C$. At higher temperature($900^{\circ}C$), the peaks of the heavy molecules disappeared, because almost all the source gas and intermediate(polymerized oligomer) molecules were oxidized or condensed on colder tube wall.

The required energy for the heat treatment of pine log was evaluated in this study. A proper heat treatment of pine log infected by pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) can prevent spreading of the infection by pinewood nematode and make the infected pinewood valuable again. The FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) heat treatment standard for various types of infected wood for which a heat treatment of the core part of the wood is necessary is 30 minutes at $56^{\circ}C$, taking into account the international standards for phytosanitary measures (ISPM No. 15). In this study, the energy consumption during the heat treatment was separated into two kinds of energy, initial energy for heating kiln drier and to reach set point temperature and relative humidity and the required energy supplementing heat loss. The initial required energy per unit time is greater than that during the treatment. The energy consumption per unit time varied little during the heat treatment. As a result, the set point relative humidity with set dry bulb temperature and density of wood dependent on moisture content are very important factors to change energy consumption in the experiment. The heat treatment at higher temperature and higher humidity levels requires more energy consumption but less treatment time. It is expected that a more effective energy program could be planed for the heat treatment of pine log through this study.

Indium tin oxide (ITO)는 넓은 밴드갭을 가지는 n-type의 축퇴 반도체로 태양전지, 스마트윈도우, 터치 센서, organic light emitting displays (OLEDs) 등에 널리 적용된다. 최근 touch screen panels (TSPs)의 높은 전기적 특성 및 고해상도 요구에 따라 고품질 ITO 박막개발의 수요도 증가하는 추세이다. 지금까지 ITO 박막의 물성 및 기계적 특성에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔지만 ITO 초박막 에서의 근본적인 물성 변화에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이므로, 이러한 연구는 필수적이라 할 수 있다. ITO 초박막은 광학적 특성은 우수하나, 낮은 결정성으로 인해 전기적 특성이 나쁘다는 단점을 가지며, 이러한 ITO 박막의 결정성은 초기 박막 성장과정에 많은 영향을 받는다. ITO 박막의 초기성장과정은 핵이 생성된 후(nucleation), 각각의 위치에서 성장하게 되고(growth), 합쳐지면서(coalescence) 연속적인 막을 형성 하는데(continuous), 이러한 초기 박막 성장 과정 중에 핵 생성 밀도를 증가시키고 박막이 연속적으로 되는 두께를 감소시킨다면, 더욱 더 고품질의 ITO 초박막을 얻을 수 있을 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 박막 초기 형성 과정 중 섬들이 합체되는 두께를 최소화시키기 위하여 EMF(electromagnetic field strength) 시스템을 이용하였다. EMF 시스템은 DC 캐소드에 전자석 코일을 장착하여 전자기장을 추가로 부가한 것으로, 이를 이용할 경우 스퍼터 원자가 중성상태로 기판에 도달하는 것이 아니라, 이온화되어 Vp-Vf의 차이로 가속되어 추가적인 에너지를 공급받음으로써 기판표면상에서 확산을 촉진시키므로 박막이 연속적으로 되는 임계 두께를 감소시킬 수 있는 것으로 기대된다. 실험은 실온에서 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 이용하였으며, 유리기판위에 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 20 nm의 두께로 ITO 박막을 제작하였다. 스퍼터링 파워는 150 W (3.29 W/cm3), 작업 압력은 0.13 Pa, 기판과 타깃 사이의 거리는 70 mm였다. 각각의 두께에서 EMF 파워 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 W로 인가하여 박막을 제작한 후, EMF 파워에 따른 ITO 박막의 초기 성장 과정중 표면상태를 AFM (atomic force microscope) 이미지를 통하여 관찰하였다. 또한, 두께 약 8 nm에서와 20 nm일 때의 전기적 특성 및 광학적 특성을 관찰하였으며, 두 박막 모두 EMF 파워 15 W를 인가하였을 때 그 특성이 가장 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 박막은 초기 성장이 중요하므로, 매우 얇은 두께에서 좋은 특성을 가진 박막을 제작하여야 박막의 두께를 증가시켰을 때도 좋은 특성의 막을 얻을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한, EMF 파워를 증가시킴에 따라 자장강도를 증가시키는 것과 같은 효과 즉, 플라즈마 임피던스가 감소하는 효과를 내어 증착 중 고 에너지 입자 (Ar0, O-)에 의한 박막손상이 감소한 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 적정 EMF 파워 15 W를 인가하였을때 가장 물성이 좋은 ITO 박막을 얻을 수 있었다. 즉, EMF 시스템을 이용하여 저온 공정에서 결함농도가 적은 고품질의 ITO 초박막을 제작할 수 있었다.

An unusual young fruit rot of apple caused by two species of Phytophthora was epidemic from late May to early July of 1996 in Andong, Uisung and Chungwon areas of Korea. The disease spread to over 30 apple orchards in the areas and percent of the infected tree and fruit was ca. 10~90% and 1`15%, respectively. Water soaking lesions or spots on leaves and shoot blight were also developed by the pathogen. Among 39 isolates collected, 25 were identified as P. cactorum and the others were as zp. cambivora on the basis of their distinctive morphological characters. While the former fungus was homothallic, all isolates of the latter were A1 mating types. Koch's postulate was fulfilled. Both fungi showed strong pathogenicity not only to young fruits, leaves and shoots of apple but also to those of pear and peach. Several vegetables tested did not show symptoms even by wound inoculation. An Occurrence of young fruit rot of apple caused by Phytophthora has not been reported in Korea, especially, P. cambivora has not been recorded previously as the causal agent of the disease in the world.
