The objective of this study was to clarify whether there are any differences between normal and over-weight middle-aged(40∼59yrs)women in their perceived weight, health status, health conception and health behavior choices. The sample consisted of 39 normal weight and 55 over-weight (11％ above on the Body Index Scale) women who live in Juan, Inchon. The Participants were randomly selected in each weight group considering socio-demographic factors. The findings from this study are summarized below. 1) Among the 55 overweight middle-aged women, 16 were above 20％ on the Body Index Scale and 14 were above 30％. Twenty-five(45.5％) of the overweight group and 12(30.8％) of the normal weight group had one disease, and there were 12(21.8％) in the overweight group and 8(20.5％) in the normal weight group where one of the family members had a disease, but these differences were not statistically significant. The average monthly family income for the overweight group was ￦l,880,000 compared to ￦2,140, 000 for the normal weight group, but this difference was also not significant. The age range for the whole group was between 40 and 59(mean＝46.8 for total, 48.6 for overweight and 45.7 for normal weight group). Again no significant difference found. Occupations were housemaker 53(56.4％), private business(13.8％), salarywoman(9.6％), and teacher (2.1％). Thirty housemaker(54.5％) from the overweight group and 23(59％) from the normal group did not constitute a statistically significant different. For the educational status, 34(61.8％) of the overweight women and 33(84.6％)of the normal weight group finished high school or more educational courses, but there was no significant statistical difference. Eleven(20.0％) of the overweight women and 5(12. 8％) of the normal weight group were single, but again no significant statistical difference was found. 2) A test for difference in health characteristics between two weight groups indicated that two groups do not show statistical differences in their perceived health status, health conception or health behavior choice. That is, the overweight group, also perceive their health status as good as the normal group, and regard ‘Health’ as a state that enables them to carry out social roles and functions rather than as the traditional concept of health as no disease or no symptoms. Moreover. the overweight group selected their health behaviors not for the prevention of diseases or maintenance of health but for promotion of health. To determine if no statistical difference might be related to the overweight group's failure of perceive themselves as overweight, the perceived and objective overweight status were compared by the chi-square analysis, and no difference was found（X/sup²＝49.37, df＝1, p＝.000）. However, 7(17.9％) of the normal group perceived themselves as being overweighted and 7(12.7％) of the overweight group thought they were of normal weight. Even though the overweight group employed in this study perceived themselves as being overweight, they regarded themselves as healthy as those in the normal weight group. It was shown that there was no statistical difference between two groups in health conception, and that they chose health behaviors to promote health status. 3) Perceived health conception was shown to be significantly related to health behavior choice （r＝ .28, p＝.006 for whole group : r＝.33, p＝.014 for overweight group : and r＝.12. p＝.463 for normal group） .There was an indication that the more complicated the perceived health conception was, the more the trend of health behavior choice to promote health. This was especially true for the overweight group. But, the perceived health status did not related to health behavior choice statistically（r＝.13, p＝.202）, and it was thought that reasons for selecting health behaviors were not related to their health status. That is, the overweight group perceive themselves as healthy as the normal weight group or thought that overweight itself does not incur any risk on their health. Data from two groups were combined and analyzed with multiple regression methodology, because the relationship pattern of the two groups was similar. The analysis showed that health behavior has a significant relationship with age and the perceived health conception（r/sup²＝.1517, p=.05, F＝8.133）. It means they come to health behavior along with their health conception and their age rather than their weights, perceived weight, health status or other social characteristics. This study was intended to understand how overweight middle-aged women perceive ‘weight’ and ‘health’, and how they meet their health related needs in comparison with normal weight middle-aged women. Other factors related to the health behavior in overweight middle-aged woman need to be determined through further descriptive studies outlined in the following recommendations. a) Reseach with the study area expanded. b) Reseach with grouping more detailed : much more overweight and underweight group c) Reseach on restricted relationship between overweight and age or profession. d) Reseach on what overweight middle-aged women do to reduce their weight and what factors motivate them to do it

This study was a quasi-experimental study of nonequivalent control group pretest- posttest design to investigate the effect of home rehabilitation exercise program on the physical and psychological functions of home stayed chronic hemiplegic stroke patients. The data were collected during the period of May 20th to August 15th, 200l. The subjects for this study were 40 hemiplegic stroke patients with the experimental group consisting of 19 patients and the control group being composed of 21 patients. The patients selected for this study were: (a)living in J city who had been diagnosed with stroke and at home after being discharged from the hospital, (b) suffering from stroke for 6 months to 5 years, (c) without recognition disorder with the MMSE-K(Mini-Mental State Examination-K)score above 25, (d) below 2 on the modified Ashworth scale, (e)free from heart and pulmonary disease, (f)able to walk beyond 15 minutes for themselves, (g) not taking regular exercises. The program for the experimental group provided 8 weeks' home rehabilitation exercise, two times of group education during the first week and individual education and supportive care after the second week through home visiting and telephoning more than once a week. The amount of time spent on rehabilitation exercise by the experimental group was 35 to 50 minutes a day, three times a week. In order to understand the effects of experiment the two groups were compared and verified by measuring the physical and psychological functions of both groups. The data were analysed by $\chi^{2}-test$, paired t-test and unpaired t-test and ANCOVA through SAS/PC program. The results of the study were as follows: 1. In terms of physical variables: grip strength. lower extremity muscle strength, walking time, ADL and serum lipid levels 1) There was no significant difference in the unaffected and affected grip strength between the two groups, even though the unaffected and affected grip strength was more improved in the experimental group than in the control group. 2) There was no significant difference in the unaffected lower extremity muscle strength between the two groups, even though the unaffected lower extremity muscle strength was more improved in the experimental group than in the control group. There was no significant difference either in the affected lower extremity muscle strength between the two groups, even though the affected lower extremity muscle strength was more improved in the experimental group than in the control group. 3) There was significant difference in walking time between the two groups. Walking time was significantly reduced in the experimental group whereas it increased in the control group. 4) There was significant difference in ADL score between the two groups. ADL score was significantly increased in the experimental group, but it significantly decreased in the control group. 5) There was significant difference in serum total cholesterol level between the two groups. After experiment the serum T-C level became lower in the experimental group whereas it became sigficantly higher in the control group. 2. In terms of psychological variables: depression and self-esteem 1) There was no significant difference in the depression between the two groups, even though the depression showed constant in the experimental group, but it showed a significant increase in the control group. 2) There was no significant difference in the self-esteem between the two groups, even though the self-esteem showed some increase in the experimental group, but it significant decrease in the control group. As shown above, the results of 8 weeks' home rehabilitation exercise program for chronic hemiplegic stroke patients produced positive effects on walking time, ADL score and serum T-C level, shortening walking time, improving activities of daily living(ADL) and lowering serum total cholesterol level.

This talk presents the overview of the author's research and development activities on fuzzy inference hardware. We involved it with two distinct approaches. The first approach is to use application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) technology. The fuzzy inference method is directly implemented in silicon. The second approach, which is in its preliminary stage, is to use more conventional microprocessor architecture. Here, we use a quantitative technique used by designer of reduced instruction set computer (RISC) to modify an architecture of a microprocessor. In the ASIC approach, we implemented the most widely used fuzzy inference mechanism directly on silicon. The mechanism is beaded on a max-min compositional rule of inference, and Mandami's method of fuzzy implication. The two VLSI fuzzy inference chips are designed, fabricated, and fully tested. Both used a full-custom CMOS technology. The second and more claborate chip was designed at the University of North Carolina(U C) in cooperation with MCNC. Both VLSI chips had muliple datapaths for rule digital fuzzy inference chips had multiple datapaths for rule evaluation, and they executed multiple fuzzy if-then rules in parallel. The AT & T chip is the first digital fuzzy inference chip in the world. It ran with a 20 MHz clock cycle and achieved an approximately 80.000 Fuzzy Logical inferences Per Second (FLIPS). It stored and executed 16 fuzzy if-then rules. Since it was designed as a proof of concept prototype chip, it had minimal amount of peripheral logic for system integration. UNC/MCNC chip consists of 688,131 transistors of which 476,160 are used for RAM memory. It ran with a 10 MHz clock cycle. The chip has a 3-staged pipeline and initiates a computation of new inference every 64 cycle. This chip achieved an approximately 160,000 FLIPS. The new architecture have the following important improvements from the AT & T chip: Programmable rule set memory (RAM). On-chip fuzzification operation by a table lookup method. On-chip defuzzification operation by a centroid method. Reconfigurable architecture for processing two rule formats. RAM/datapath redundancy for higher yield It can store and execute 51 if-then rule of the following format: IF A and B and C and D Then Do E, and Then Do F. With this format, the chip takes four inputs and produces two outputs. By software reconfiguration, it can store and execute 102 if-then rules of the following simpler format using the same datapath: IF A and B Then Do E. With this format the chip takes two inputs and produces one outputs. We have built two VME-bus board systems based on this chip for Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The board is now installed in a robot at ORNL. Researchers uses this board for experiment in autonomous robot navigation. The Fuzzy Logic system board places the Fuzzy chip into a VMEbus environment. High level C language functions hide the operational details of the board from the applications programme . The programmer treats rule memories and fuzzification function memories as local structures passed as parameters to the C functions. ASIC fuzzy inference hardware is extremely fast, but they are limited in generality. Many aspects of the design are limited or fixed. We have proposed to designing a are limited or fixed. We have proposed to designing a fuzzy information processor as an application specific processor using a quantitative approach. The quantitative approach was developed by RISC designers. In effect, we are interested in evaluating the effectiveness of a specialized RISC processor for fuzzy information processing. As the first step, we measured the possible speed-up of a fuzzy inference program based on if-then rules by an introduction of specialized instructions, i.e., min and max instructions. The minimum and maximum operations are heavily used in fuzzy logic applications as fuzzy intersection and union. We performed measurements using a MIPS R3000 as a base micropro essor. The initial result is encouraging. We can achieve as high as a 2.5 increase in inference speed if the R3000 had min and max instructions. Also, they are useful for speeding up other fuzzy operations such as bounded product and bounded sum. The embedded processor's main task is to control some device or process. It usually runs a single or a embedded processer to create an embedded processor for fuzzy control is very effective. Table I shows the measured speed of the inference by a MIPS R3000 microprocessor, a fictitious MIPS R3000 microprocessor with min and max instructions, and a UNC/MCNC ASIC fuzzy inference chip. The software that used on microprocessors is a simulator of the ASIC chip. The first row is the computation time in seconds of 6000 inferences using 51 rules where each fuzzy set is represented by an array of 64 elements. The second row is the time required to perform a single inference. The last row is the fuzzy logical inferences per second (FLIPS) measured for ach device. There is a large gap in run time between the ASIC and software approaches even if we resort to a specialized fuzzy microprocessor. As for design time and cost, these two approaches represent two extremes. An ASIC approach is extremely expensive. It is, therefore, an important research topic to design a specialized computing architecture for fuzzy applications that falls between these two extremes both in run time and design time/cost.

본실험은 우리 나라 중부지방에 있어서의 수도의 재배 시기를 이동함에 따르는 실용제형질의 변화를 구명하기 위하여1958~'60년의 3개년에 걸쳐 농업시험장(현 작물시험장) 답작과(수원)에서 시행한 실험으로서 공시품종은 조만성, 초형 등 생태적특성을 달리하는 연산.수원 8002.오조.팔달 및 조광의 5품종을 공시하였으며, 파종기는 3월 2일 ~7월 10일까지를 10일 간격으로 14회에 걸쳐 파종하였고, 또 각 파종기마다 각각 못자리 일수를 30일, 40일, 50일, 60일, 70일 및 8일묘로 하여 이앙하여 실험하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 출수기 : 1) 파종기가 지연됨에 따라서 출수기도 거의 일직선으로 지연되나, 그 정도는 조생종에서 크고 만생종은 작으며, 또 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라서 커진다. 2) 출수까지의 일수는 각 품종 모두 파종기의 지연에 따라서 거의 일직선으로 단축하나, 품종에 따라 그 정도의 차이가 있어서 조생종은 단축일수가 작고 만생종이 크다. 그리고 동일품종 내에서도 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 단축일수는 작아졌다. 또 최단축일수에 도달하는 시기도 조생종은 빠르나 만생종은 늦어진다. 또 못자리 일수가 긴 구에서 그 시기는 빨라진다. 품종 및 못자리 일수에 따라 차이가 있으나 어느 시기 이후의 파종기가 되면 단축을 나타내지 않게 되고, 다시 파종기가 늦어지면 한냉한 기후의 영향을 받아 출수일수는 오히려 연장된다. 3) 파종기(X)와 출수까지의 일수(Y)와의 회귀직선식 Y=a+bX의 계수 b(출수일수단축율)와 평균일수일수와는 고도의 상관이 인정되며, 평균출수일수가 클수록, 즉 만생종일수록 파종기의 지연에 의한 출수촉진일수가 컸었다. 4) 어느 품종의 파종기가 동일역일이면 못자리 일수가 극단으로 길지 않은 범위 내에서는(파종기의 지연에 따라서 출수까지의 일수가 직선적으로 단축되는 범위내에서의) 출수일수의 년차간의 변이는 크지 않으므로 목적하는 품종에 대한 수회의 파종기에 걸쳐 출수기의 변동을 조사하여 실험식(파종기와 출수까지의 일수와의 회귀직선식)을 구해 두면 임의의 재배시기에 있어서의 출수기를 추정할 수 있다. 5) 파종기가 3월하순~6월중순, 못자리 일수가 30~50일의 범위에서는 보통기재배에 있어서의 품종의 출수기의 조만을 가지고 그 전후에 해당하는 파종기에 있어서의 각각의 품종에 대한 출수기를 추정할 수 있다. 2. 성숙기 : 6) 출수기가 지연됨에 따라서 성숙한계 출수기의 범위 내에서는 성숙기도 거의 일직선으로 지연된다. 그 정도는 품종 및 못자리 일수의 장단에 의한 차이가 크다. 평균온도의 영향을 받는 범위 내에서는 출수기(X)가 지연됨에 따라서 성숙기간 중의 평균온도(Y)는 그것에 따라서 저하하며 품종간에 차이가 있으나, 전체적으로 보아 양자의 관계를 8월 1일부터 9월 13일까지의 범위에서는 Y=25.53-0.182X의 회귀직선식으로 나타낼 수 있다. 7) 품종의 조만생에 의한 성숙기간에 있어서의 평균온도의 차이가 심하며, 조생종은 최고 28$^{\circ}C$의 고온에서 경과하나 만생종은 22$^{\circ}C$에 불과하다. 8) 성숙기간중의 평균온도(X)와 성숙일수와의 관계는 극히 높은 상관이 인정되며, 양자의 관계를 Y=82.30-1.55X의 회귀직선식으로 표시할 수 있었다. 성숙기간중의 평균기온이 18~28$^{\circ}C$의 범위 내에서는 온도가 1$^{\circ}C$ 상승함에 따라서 성숙일수는 1.55일 단축되는 결과가 되며, 품종별로는 관산이 2.24일로서 단축정도가 컸고, 수원 8002가 0.78일로서 가장 적었다. 따라서 수원지방에 있어서는 평균온도가 18~28$^{\circ}C$의 범위에서는 온도가 상승함에 따라 성숙속도가 빨라진다고 할 수 있다. 9) 각 파종기별로 본 출수까지의 일수(X)에 대한 성숙기간중의 적산온도(Y)와의 관계는 거의 완전한 정의 상관관계가 있고, 성숙기간중의 적산온도는 어느 범위 내에 있어서의 파종기의 이동에 의한 차이는 비교적 작다. 3. 간장 및 수장 : 10) 품종간의 차이는 있으나 비교적 조파가 된 구간에는 간장에 큰 변화는 없으나 계속 파종기가 지연되어 만파가 되면 공시품종 모두 간장의 감소가 뚜렷해졌다. 또 간장의 감소정도는 약묘에서 완만할 뿐만 아니라, 5월 21일~6월 10일 파종과 같이 비교적 만파를 하더라도 별로 감소되지는 않으나, 80일묘와 같은 노숙묘인 때는 보통기재배에서도 급격히 감소한다. 11) 수장의 변화도 간장과 동일한 경향을 보이나 파종기의 지연에 의한 수장의 변화는 30~40일묘에서는 거의 인정되지 않았고, 못자리 일수가 길어지면 수장의 감소가 뚜렷해진다. 4. 수수 : 12) 파종기가 지연됨에 따라서 일정한 시기까지 계속수수는 감소하다가 어느 시기 이후가 되면 새로이 고차분얼의 다량발생으로 수수가 증가한다. 그 시기는 못자리 일수에 따라 차이가 있으며, 30~40 일묘는 5월 31일~6월 10일 파종기인 만파에서 수수가 최대로 감소하며, 70~80일묘의 경우 4월 11일~4월 21일의 파종기에서 이미 수수가 최대로 감소한다. 5. 지경수 : 13) 지경수는 파종기가 지연됨에 따라서 어느 일정한 시기까지는 변화가 없으나, 그 시기가 지나면 수당지경수의 감소가 현저하다. 14) 지경수가 감소되기 시작하는 시기도 30~40 일묘에서는 5월 3일 이후의 파종기가 되나, 80일묘의 경우 5월 31일 파종에서 이미 감소될 뿐만아니라, 5월 31일 파종이 되면 지경수가 3~4개에 불과하였다. 6. 비중과 천입중 : 15) 파종기의 이동에 따라 비중은 서서히 증가하나 어느 시기를 넘으면 급격히 증가하며, 이를 2개의 상이한 회귀직선으로 표시할 수 있다. 16) 이 양직선이 교차되는 지점을 성숙가능한계기로 보면 이 시기는 못자리 일수와 밀접한 관계가 있어서 30~40일묘는 6월 10일 반중기에 해당하나, 70~80일묘에서는 5월 1일로서 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 성숙한계기는 당겨진다. 17) 천입중은 보통기재배에서 가장 무겁고 극조기재배를 하거나 만기재배에서 천입중은 저하한다. 7. 고중 및 완전정조중 : 18) 품종의 조만에 큰 영향없이 III~IV 파종기까지의 조기재배 하에서는 못자리 일수의 장단에 의한 고중의 큰 변이는 없으나, 파종기가 계속 이동하여 보통기재배가 되면 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 차차 고종이 감소되어 오다가 만파가 되자 그 감소정도가 급격해졌다. 19) 파종기(X)와 정조수량(Y)과의 관계는 품종ㆍ못자리 일수를 종합하여 직선에 가까운 포물선으로 나타낼 수 있었다(Y=77.28-7.44X$_1$-1.001X$_2$). 따라서 조파시에는 정조수량의 변이가 작으나 어느 시기보다 파종기가 늦어짐에 따라서 정조수량은 감소하며, 그 정도는 만파인 경우에 심하고, 또 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 더욱 현저하다. 20) 출수일수(X)에 대한 정조수량(Y)의 관계는 품종ㆍ못자리 일수를 구별하지 않고 보아다 회귀직선식으로써 나타낼 수 있었으나, 출수일수가 60~110일 정도까지는 조생종이 수량이 많고 만생종은 만기재배에 해당하므로 정조중의 감소가 심하였고, 출수일수가 140일 정도 이상이 되면 정조중이 거의 증가하지 않은 경향이 뚜렷하였다.
