This study proposes a means of guiding undergraduate research assistants programs in a more positive direction. This will be achieved by researching the reality of the programs operated in engineering departments for graduate school students and by analyzing the problems thereof. To achieve this objective, a literature study and research were conducted, which comprised of a survey on 204 graduate school students within the metropolitan area of Korea. The results of the study demonstrated that experience as an undergraduate research assistant has a positive influence on the adaptation to and life in graduate school. However, the role of the student and the level of salary varied depending on the role of the student, based on the capacity and support of individual professors. Thus, it is deemed that there will be a need for systematic program improvement and the development of a program that can provide significant academic activities, rather than simple experimental assistance.

Autonomous speedsprayer operation in an orchard was conducted using a fuzzy logic controller (FLC). Orchard image analysis and signals of ultrasonic sensors were processed in real time. The speedsprayer was modified to be steered by two hydraulic cylinders. The FLC has two inputs of direction of running and distance from obstacles. Operation time of the hydraulic cylinders were inferred as output of the FLC. Field test results showed that the speedsprayer could be autonomously operated by the FLC along with the image processing and the ultrasonic sensors. The ultrasonic sensors didn't contribute to the improvement of guidance performance, but the speedsprayer could avoid trees or obstacles in emergent situations with them.

To estimate the peak discharge from the small rural watersheds, 53 storm events of seven small watersheds from 1972 to 1989 were selected and were analyzed by the multiple regression technique. The peak values by the new prediction method developed in this study were also compared to the real data of Banwol Basins and the estimated peaks of the several watersheds which were analyzed by the Korean engineering companies. These values were also compared to the results from the other method, i.e. the Rational Method, the Kajiyama Method, the Nakayasu Unit Hydrograph companies. Through Method, the Area Routing Method, etc., which are favored by the Korean engineering companies. Through these comparisons, it is proved that the proposed method may be used for day-to-day use without any problem. However, there should be some modifications and improvements as more data are available in the future.

A general web-based remote lecture system uses video data and audio data to provide synchronize between teacher and students. This system requires high bandwidth, high speed networking, television, compression and computing technologies between server and client for remote lecture over Internet. As a result, this system can decrease an efficiency for lecturing over current Internet. So, this paper proposes a new mechanism calling as ‘Synchronization of WWW browsers between server and client’to cope with above problems and finally pursues low cost needed for real-time remote lecture over Internet. The mechanism means that every browser of teacher and students displays the same page and the action of teacher is transferred to the browser of student. And, this can be implemented by Windows hooking APIs, Memory Mapping, and DLL (Dynamic Link Library) programming technology. This paper points to the design and implementation of LAS (Lecture Assistant Server) and LAC (Lecture Assistant Client) to perform the synchronization between server and client.

The accumulated BMS data have made it easy to make reasonable decision-making for bride maintenance and repair work. In the developing period of BMS, the bridge management was not easy due to the lack of understanding of BMS and low credibility of the data. In recent years, it has been possible to enhance the credibility of the data and to expand the application scopes of BMS with the efforts of Local Road Construction Offices. The reasonable decision making for bridge management can improve the performance of bridges under the practical constraints such as limited budget. It can then result in the reduction of bridge maintenance budget. This study provides the methodology for the application of mobile internet-based KOBMS for bridge management. The data flow for BMS is the most important factor for decision-making on budget allocation, and this study establishes the basic scheme of the data flow for BMS. The implementation of PDA for BMS may suggest a new paradigm of 'Mobile' in the field of construction management.

The DC/DC power converter increase switching frequency in order to achieve small size, a low noise, and light weight. However, the power switches have high power losses and switching stresses as the switching frequency is increased. Therefore in this paper, the author propose the Soft-Switching Forward-Flyback PWM DC/DC converter using assistant-circuit, based on forward-flyback operation of a high-frequency transformer. The proposed converter scheme is verified by simulation and experiment.

This paper applicate to the large flowers management house, personal office or home, which breed flowers for the profit or hobby. We suggest flower water supply assistant, which supply water anytime to prevent die from water shortage. Our system applicate to the flowerpot less than two at first. We measure humidity by use humidity sensor and control water supply valve automatically. The water supply valve will be opened when the humidity drop to the less than critical values.

The objectives of the paper are to apply the gross erosion and sediment delivery ratio method for estimating sediment deposits and to define their trap efficiencies. For twenty irrigation reservoirs which have sediment survey data, the gross erosion was estimated from the channel erosion as well as the soil losses by applying USLE. The gross erowion was reduced to the sediment yields by multiplying the sediment delivery ratios. The results were multipled by trap efficiencies after Brune method to estimate sediment deposits, which were compared to sediment surveyed data. The comparisons showed deposits. And a trap efficiency relationship was derived from a regression method, which appeared better suited for irrigation reservoirs.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the nature of pre-service elementary teachers' metaphors on mathematics textbooks. Their metaphors describe individual and collective patterns of thinking and action on mathematics teaching and learning. To analyze their metaphors, qualitative analysis method based on Lakoff and Johnson's theory of metaphor (1980) was adopted. Metaphors on mathematics textbooks were elicited from 161 pre-service elementary school teachers through writing prompts. The writing prompt responses revealed three types and thirteen categories: As Type I, there were (1) 'Principles', (2) 'Summary', (3) 'Manual', (4) 'Encyclopedia', (5) 'Code', (6) 'Guidelines', and (7) 'Example'. As TypeII, there were (9) 'Assistant', (10) 'Friend', (11) 'Scale', and (12) 'Ongoing'. As TypeIII, there was (13) 'Trap'. Among these categories, 'Guidelines', 'Assistant', and 'Ongoing' were the most frequently revealed. These results indicate that the relations of mathematics curriculum, textbooks, and classrooms are not a unilateral way but should communicate with each other.
