As a low K material for high frequency high integration modules, glass/ceramic composites were investigated. Glass composition were selected from $SiO_2-B_2O_3-Al_2O_3-R_2O$-RO system which having very low dielectric constant and cordierite was used as a ceramic filler. These composites were sintered at temperature range from $850^{\circ}$ to $950^{\circ}$ and XRD, SEM microstructure analysis of sintered bodies were performed for understanding sintering behavior. Any crystallization was not occurred and dense sintered bodies were attained. Dielectric and mechanical properties of these sintered glass/cordierite composites were analysed by network analyzer and UTM. Glass/ceramic composite with 50 wt% cordierite showing a dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) of 5.4, Q${\times}f_0$ (Q) of 1600 at 1 GHz and maximum bending strength of 163 MPa was attained.

A food-grade integration vector based on site-specific recombination was constructed. The 5.7-kb vector, pIMA20, contained an integrase gene and a phage attachment site originating from bacteriophage A2, with the ${\alpha}$-galactosidase gene from Lactobacillus plantarum KCTC 3104 as a selection marker. pIMA20 was also equipped with a controllable promoter of nisA ($P_{nisA}$) and a signal peptide-encoding sequence of usp45 ($SP_{usp45}$) for the production and secretion of foreign proteins. pIMA20 and its derivatives mediated site-specific integration into the attB-like site on the Lactococcus lactis NZ9800 chromosome. The vector-integrated recombinant lactococci were easily detected by the appearance of blue colonies on a medium containing $X-{\alpha}-gal$ and also by their ability to grow on a medium containing melibiose as the sole carbon source. Recombinant lactococci maintained these traits in the absence of selection pressure during 100 generations. The ${\alpha}-amylase$ gene from Bacillus licheniformis, lacking a signal peptide-encoding. sequence, was inserted downstream of $P_{nisA}\;and\;SP_{usp45}$ in pIMA20, and the plasmid was integrated into the L. lactis chromosome. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ was successfully produced and secreted by the recombinant L. lactis, controlled by the addition and concentration of nisin.

Porphyromonas gingivalis, the gram-negative anaerobic oral bacterium, initiates periodontal disease by binding to saliva-coated oral surface. The cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) genetically linked to FimA1 (1-200 aa) or FimA2 (201-337 aa) of the P. gingivalis fimbrial antigen were introduced into Solanum tuberosum cells by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation method. The integration of CTB-FimA1 or CTB-FimA2 fusion genes were confirmed in the chromosome of transformed leaves by genomic DNA PCR amplification method. Synthesis and assembly of the CTB-FimA fusion proteins into oligomeric structures with pentamer size was detected in transformed tuber extracts by immunoblot analysis. The binding activities of CTB-FimA fusion proteins to intestinal epithelial cell membrane receptors were confirmed by GM1-ganglioside enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (GM1-ELISA). The ELISA showed that the expression levels of the CTB-FimA1 or CTB-FimA2 fusion proteins were 0.0019, 0.002% of the total soluble protein in transgenic tuber tissues, respectively The synthesis of CTB-FimA monomers and their assembly into biologically active oligomers in transformed potato tuber tissues demonstrates the feasibility of using edible plants for the production of enterocyte targeted fimbrial antigens that could elicit mucosal immune responses.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to get the cognitive reaction time according to the intensity of auditory stimuli in older people and to differentiate the cognitive reaction time between older people and adults. Method: 49 subjects consisted of 32 older people and 17 adults. Cognitive reaction time was assessed with Simple Auditory Reaction of Foundation I in PSS CogReHab. Analysis of the data was done by using independent t-test. Results: The results were as follows: 1. There was a significant difference of the mean of cognitive reaction time to the intensity of auditory stimuli. 2. There was no significant difference from older people regardless of sexual distinction in mean of cognitive reaction time. However, there was a significant difference of the mean of cognitive reaction time in adults. 3. There was a significant difference between older people who got a job or not in 90 dB of auditory stimuli. 4. The mean of cognitive reaction time to the intensity of auditory stimuli in older people was slower than adults. There was a significant difference of the mean of cognitive reaction time between older people and adults in 70 dB of auditory stimuli. 5. The mean of cognitive reaction time to the intensity of auditory stimuli in older people did not have the significant difference in scholastic ability. Conclusions: The results of the study showed slowing of the cognitive reaction time in auditory stimuli to aging in older people. Therefore, applying silver industry and development of equipment for older people may maintain independent life.

The integration between a gas turbine and an air separation unit (ASU) is important in IGCC plants. The portion of ASU air extracted from the gas turbine and the degree of nitrogen supply from the ASU to the gas turbine side are important operating parameters. Their effect on the gas turbine performance and operability should be considered in a wide ambient temperature range. In this study, appropriate nitrogen dilution rate and turbine inlet temperature that satisfy the two limitations of turbine blade temperature and maximum allowable power output were predicted. The air integration was set at zero. The simulation showed that the power output increases and turbine blade temperature decreases as the nitrogen dilution increases. The maximum allowable power output can be obtained under medium and low ambient temperature ranges. Under a high ambient temperature range, the achievable power is less than the maximum power.

We have investigated an optical waveguide isolator with a multimode interference section by wafer direct bonding, operating at a wavelength $1.55\;{\mu}m$. In order to fabricate the device for monolithic integration, the wafer direct bonding between a magnetic garnet material as a cladding layer and a semiconductor guiding layer has been achieved. We found that wafer direct bonding between InP and GGG $(Gd_3Ga_5O_{12})$ is effective for the integration of a waveguide optical isolator. The isolation ratio was obtained to be 2.9 dB in the device.

We have used two kinds of P element constructs, Pc[(ry+)B] and p[(ry+)$\Delta$SX9], for genetic transformation by microinjection of D. melanogaster. Pc[(ry+)B] construct carrying the rosy gene within an autonomous P element was injected into a true M strain caring the ry506. mutation. The source of transposase for microinjection and transformation was provided by a P element helper plasmid designated p-$\Delta$2-3hs$\pi$, which was co-injected with nonautonomous P[(ry+)$\Delta$SX9] construct into same ry506 M strains. A dechorination method was adopted and 35 independent transformed lines were obtained froin 1143 G0 Injected (35/1143). About 20% of the injected embryos eclosed as adults. Among G0 eclosed flies, approximately 40% exhibited eye color that was similar to wild-type (ry+), but about 60% of fertile G0 transformed lines appeared to have no G1 transformants. Therefore it is unlikely that G0 expression requires integration of the rosy transposon into chromosomes. Pc[(ry+)B] and P[(ry+)$\Delta$SX9] constructs were found to be nearly same in the frequency of element-mediated transformation. On the basis of these results, nonautonomous P elements constructs could he used as same effective vectors in P element-mediated transformation for introducing and fixing genes in insect populations.

The regioselectivity in the nitrosation of seven N-methyl-N'-substituted phenylureas ($CH_3NHCONHC_6H_4-G$; G = H, p-CH$_3$, m-CH$_3$, m-CH$_3$O, p-F, m-F, m-Br) was examined using NaNO$_2$ and 4 different acids (diluted HCl, HCOOH, CH$_3$COOH, CF$_3$COOH). In all cases, the two regioisomeric products, N-nitroso-N-methyl-N'-substituted phenylureas (A) and N'-nitroso-N-methyl-N'-substituted phenylureas (B) were observed to be formed as major products and product ratios were determined by the integration of their methyl peaks in $^1$H-NMR. Electron donating substitutent(G) on phenyl of the ureas generally led to increase the ratio of B to A. The data have revealed that the relative sensitivity of the nitrosonium species (HONO, HCOONO, CH$_3$COONO, CF$_3$COONO) toward the change of electron density on nitrogen with phenyl substitutents are 1.00 : 0.93 : 0.78 : > ∼ 0.7.

Acquisition is to detect the presence of the GPS signal. Once the signal is detected, the estimated frequency and code phase are passed to a tracking loop to demodulate the navigation data. In order to detect the weak signal, multiple length of data integration is always needed. In this paper, we present five different acquisition approaches based on circular correlation and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), using coherent as well as non-coherent integration techniques for the multiple length of collected GPS satellite signal. Moreover a general approach of determining the acquisition threshold is introduced based on noise distribution which has been proved effective, and independent of the hardware. In the end of this paper, the processing speed and acquisition gain of each method are illustrated, compared, and analyzed. The results show that coherent approach is much more time consuming compared to noncoherent approaches, and in the case of multiple length of data integration from 2ms to 8ms, the processing times consumed by the fastest non-coherent acquisition method are only 25.87% to 1.52% in a single search, and 34.76% to 1.06% in a global search of those in the coherent acquisition. However, coherent acquisition also demonstrates its better performance in the acquisition gain, and in the case of 8ms of data integration it is 4.23 to 4.41 dB higher than that in the non-coherent approaches. Finally, an applicable scheme of combining coherent and non-coherent acquisition approaches in the development of a real-time Software GPS receiver in the University of Tokyo is provided.

Such factors as the increase of population and me development of information technology were raised the needs of citizens in Korea. To meet these needs for the better services, Korean government has built up the computer networks that connect forty-two administrative operations of the central government since 1984. Through the computerization of administrative services, Korean government has been pursuing the balanced development among the regions in the country. To this end, regional informationization has been implemented since the mid 1980s. Specifically, rural villages has become information network villages (invils) by adopting computers and networks. Consequently, three hundred thirty-seven invils were implemented in the country. By selecting forty-six invils in Kyeongbuk province in Korea, this research was intended to find efficient and effective ways of operating invils. To find the problems and opportunities of the invils, the researcher has visited each of the forty-six invils between January 12th. and February 12th. in 2009. Two-round surveys were distributed to the managers of these forty-six invils. This research identified ten problems as below. a. Problems after the implementation of invils b. Problems occurred at the same rime as the operation of invils c. Problems with regard to the invil managers d. Problems with regard to the criteria of success or failure e. Problems with regard to the cooperation of administrative offices f. Problems with regard to the boosting of invil experience g. Problems with regard to software assurance developed in invils h. Problems with regard to incentives to invlis i. Problems with regard to the role of invils To solve these problems in hands of invils, this research suggested policy ideas in two levels: 1. invils 2. government Policies should be implemented by invils: a. The strengthening of training rural people for the better utilization of computers b. The strengthening of the regulations on membership management and electronic commerce c. The establishment of the invil managers' job tenure d. The reformation of measuring the success or failure of an invil e. The integration of administrative offices centralized by invils f. The establishment of trust between administrative offices and invils g. the integration of experience villages and invil managing offices h. The revitalization of incentives to invils and experience villages i. The enforcement of cooperative offices among invils Policies to be implemented by the government: a. The revitalization of electronic commerce through invils b. The rationalization of selecting invils in an area c. The unification of various offices for rural informationization d. The construction of portal sites for rural areas e. The continuous training of IT leaders in rural areas f. The provision of pays to invil managers based on break-even points g. The transcendentalization toward the second new town movement
