This study was conducted to identify the location characteristics of infected farms in the areas where livestock diseases were clustered(southern Gyeonggi-do and Chungcheong-do), analyze the probability of disease occurrence in poultry farms, find out the areas corresponding to the conditions, and use them as the basis for prevention of livestock diseases, selection of discriminatory prevention zones, and establishment of prevention strategies and as the basic data for complementary measures. The increase of one poultry farm within a radius of 3-kilometers increases the risk of HPAI infection by 10.9% compared to the previous situation. The increase of 1m in distance from major roads with two lanes or more reduces the probability of HPAI infection by 0.001% compared to the previous situation. If the distance of the poultry farm located with 15 kilometers from a major migratory bird habitat increases by 15 to 30 kilometers, the chance of infection with HPAI is reduced by 46.0%. And if the distance of the same poultry farm increase by more than 30 kilometers, the chances of HPAI infection are reduced by 88.5%. Based on the results of logistic regression, the predicted probability was generated and the actual area of the location condition with 'more than 15 poultry farms within 3km a radius of, within 1km distance from major roads, and within 30km distance from major migratory birds habitat was determined and the infection rate was measured. It is expected that the results of this study will be used as basic data for preparing the data and supplementary measures when the quarantine authorities establish discriminatory quarantine areas and prevention strategies, such as preventive measures for the target areas and farms, or control of vehicles, by identifying the areas where livestock diseases are likely to occur in the region.

Under the continuing economic growth without increase in employment, issues regarding the impact of IT investment on demand for labor have been continuously raised. Under the circumstance, this study carried out an empirical analysis on the impact of IT investment on employment with a sample of 498 businesses whose domestic sales for the period of six years from 2003 to 2008 are KRW 100 billion or above. The result of the analysis found that IT investment increases employment in most of the industries except for some of the service sectors. In the manufacturing industry, more IT investment increased employment but decreased the flexibility in demand for labor; therefore, IT investment has a substitutional relationship with low-skilled labor and a complementary relationship with high-skilled labor. In the areas of electricity, gas and construction, employment increased as IT investment increased, with the greatest flexibility in demand for labor. In the service industry, increase in IT investment led to more employment and higher flexibility in producer services only. On the other hand, there was no meaningful relationship found between IT investment and employment in the areas of distribution services and social services.

Airborne LIDAR system, utilized in various forest studies, provides efficiently spatial information about vertical structures of forest areas. The tree height is one of the most essential measurements to derive forest information such as biomass, which can be estimated from the forest terrain model. As the terrain model is generated by the interpolation of ground points extracted from LIDAR data, filtering methods with high reliability to classify reliably the ground points are required. In this paper, we applied three representative filtering methods to forest LIDAR data with diverse characteristics, measured the errors and performance of these methods, and analyzed the causes of the errors. Based on their complementary characteristics derived from the analysis results, we have attempted to combine the results and checked the performance improvement. In most test areas, the convergence method showed the satisfactory results, where the filtering performance were improved more than 10% in maximum. Also, we have generated DTM using the classified ground points and compared with the verification data. The DTM retains about 17cm RMSE, which can be sufficiently utilized for the derivation of forest information.

PURPOSES : This study proposes standards for rural access road pavement section and thickness design considering existing access road construction conditions; the study also proposes a complementary policy that can be used for design convenience. METHODS : Various literature review and case studies had been performed in terms of rural access road section and thickness design, both domestically and internationally, and this was followed by domestic rural access road field surveys. KPRP and KENLAYER were used to analyze the commonalities and predict the remaining life. Data on real cost is used to select an appropriate construction method through economic analysis. RESULTS : The economic efficiency of concrete pavement ($15{\times}15$) was the highest in terms of economic efficiency of performance life and traffic volume. In the case of asphalt pavement, it is considered that the most economical method is to implement micro-surfacing method four times as a preventive maintenance method (once every 10 years and 4.5 years for asphalt concrete pavement and MS construction method, respectively). Repairable asphalt pavement is advantageous for areas where heavy vehicles are expected to pass. In the case of other general areas, it is considered economical to place concrete ($15{\times}15$) pavement. However, as analytical results on its performance life are unavailable, it is to be considered for study in the future. CONCLUSIONS : This study proposed interim design guidelines based on various domestic and international design guidelines and case studies. However, in order to develop the final design criteria applicable to the field, it is necessary to (a) estimate the bearing capacity of the lower level of the pavement at various sites, (b) estimate the daily traffic volume, (c) implement advanced low-cost pavement technologies, and (d) propose maintenance standards and techniques for long-term performance.

This paper aims to explain the changes of social spatiality in rural areas as seen on a sloping scale in reference of population structure and utilization of territorial assets. Guessing from the population characteristics of rural communities and farming activities in Hwangsan village of Uichon-Myeon, Geochang-Gun and Hanam village of Chogye-Myeon, Hapchon-Gun, it will become a society characterized by super-aged intensification and large-scale crop cultivation. Deokgok-Myeon and Yulji village of Hapchon-Gun are required to intake outside residents. They have to understand the complementary cooperation and become conscious of the relationship between existing residents and relocated people in Yudong village of Yokji-Myeon, Tonyoung-Si. Due to a decreasing population and the phenomena of the 'super-aged', the efforts to revive the spatial function as a living and working space while utilizing territorial assets could be challenged in these case study regions.

This paper was able to indicate to the results the following thing that attempted a required potential development demand, through the contents and cost analysis in Rural Community Development Project. Nowadays, Rural Areas comparatively have a lot of development demands related to improvements environmental of residence life and construction of Urban-Rural Exchange Facility, on the other and, there is comparatively a few facilities demands regarding agriculture production. Demand is cold storage facilities and agricultural products direct sale facilities expansion to be able to raise value added of agricultural products as facilities related comparatively a little agriculture production, and an improvement of residence life comparatively has a lot of repair environmental uninhabited house repair, river-front and the roadside, rest shelter creation demands. However, that should be forecasted so that aging of rural, population decrease and development demand is caused by a lot of issues such as maintenances operation of many Urban-Rural Exchange Facilities and a similar program and content has a lot of them in bilateral adjacent zones. Therefore, in the future plan shall attempt efficiency operating facilities and a program through characterization and network of zone so that facilities and program can have complementary relation in the adjacent zones. And item development and an investor are necessary regarding new labor force supply for continuous value maintenance of space and returning to the farm that there were the reverse agriculture production and Amenity which are an rural village. Furthermore, developmental plan of rural village is necessary through the demand analyses that a citizen wishing for things.

To elucidate the relation of leaf development stage to the antioxidative function in leaves of Alnus firma Sieb. et Zucc. growing in polluted areas, we investigated seasonal changes of pigment content and antioxidant enzyme activities from January to June. In abandoned mine and industrial complex areas, antioxidant function against stress of trees was changed with leaf expansion, and antioxidant activity in leaves was highest in June. Among antioxidants, carotenoid, SOD and CAT were correlated with seasonal change. Carotenoid and SOD represented a positive correlation but CAT represented a negative correlation with leaf development. APX and CAT, which remove $H_{2}O_2$, had a complementary function in the antioxidant system. The lowest antioxidant activity was observed in April, and the damage level in leaves, shown as MDA content, was also lowest in April.

Compared to the bar code which is being widely used for commercial products management, color code is advantageous in both the outlook and the number of combinations. And the color code has application areas complement to the RFID's. However, due to the severe distortion of the color component values, which is easily over $50{\%}$ of the scale, color codes have difficulty in finding applications in the industry. To improve the accuracy of recognition of color codes, it'd better to statistically process an entire color region and then determine its color than to process some samples selected from the region. For this purpose, we suggest a technique to detect edges between color regions in this paper, which is indispensable for an accurate segmentation of color regions. We first transformed RGB color image to HSI and YIQ color models, and then extracted I- and Y-components from them, respectively. Then we performed Canny edge detection on each component image. Each edge image usually had some edges missing. However, since the resulting edge images were complementary, we could obtain an optimal edge image by combining them.

Phytophthora capsici is a pathogen on several economically important crops including pepper. In pepper growing areas in Korea, Phytophthora blight caused by p. capsici has been considered as the most serious problem in pepper production. The Oomycete attacks the roots, stems, leaves and fruits of the plant. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the disease development, the genes expressed doting pepper p. capsici interaction were explored by analyzing expressed sequence tags (ESTs). A complementary DNA (cDNA) library was constructed from total RNA extracted from pepper leaves challenged with p. capsici for 3 days resulting in early stage of symptom development. The comprehensive analysis on the single pass sequencing of over 4000 randomly selected cDNA clones with contig assembly, unique gene extraction, sequence comparison, and functional categorizing will be presented with an emphasis on the genes involved in plant defense and pathogenicity during disease development of the pepper Phytophthora blight.
