The switched Ethernet has many features for real-time communications such as providing traffic isolation, large bandwidth, and full-duplex links, and so on. The switched Ethernet, however, cannot guarantee the timely delivery of a real-time message because message delay increases when collisions occurs at the output ports and message loss can even occur due to the overflow at the output buffer. Recently, many research efforts have been done to use the switched Ethernet as an industrial control network. In the industrial control network, sensors periodically sense the physical environment and transmit the sensed data to an actuator, and the periodic messages from sensors to actuators have typically real-time requirements such that those messages must be transmitted within their deadlines. This paper first suggests a feasible condition for EDF (Earliest Deadline First)-based scheduling of periodic messages on a synchronized switched Ethernet and a message scheduling algorithm which satisfies the proposed feasible condition. Pedreiras, et al. [10] suggested a feasible condition for message scheduling on the Ethernet (shared media Ethernet), but there has been no research result on the scheduling condition on the switched Ethernet until now. We compared the real-time message scheduling capacity between the Ethernet and the switched Ethernet by simulation. The simulation result shows that the message scheduling capacity of the Ethernet has almost remained constant as the number of nodes on the network increases, but, in the case of the switched Ethernet, the message scheduling capacity has increased linearly according to the number of nodes on the network.

This experiment was carried out to investigate proper conditions for protoplast isolation and regeneration from mycelia of Lyophyllum decastes. Novozym 234(10 mg/ml) with 0.6 M $MgSO_4$ in phosphate buffer(pH 4.0) was proper for protoplast isolation. The optimal reaction time of the mycelium with the lytic enzyme was four hours in shaking condition at 120 strokes per min. When the mycelium of L. decastes was cultured at $24^{\circ}C$ for 5 days, the formation of protoplasts was effective. The liquid medium was more effective for protoplast isolation than the solid medium. In the liquid medium, high yields of protoplasts were obtained from 0.6 M $MgSO_4$ osmotic stabilizer. Protoplasts of L. decastes were regenerated to normal hyphal growth and the regeneration frequency of the protoplasts in the complete agar medium containing Triton X-100(0.0025%) was $5.94{\sim}8.32%$. The regeneration medium stabilized with 0.6 M sucrose was the best for regeneration of the protoplasts. In contrast to protoplast formation, regeneration was inhibited by the inorganic salts used as osmotic stabilizer.

The optimal conditions for high yields of mycelial protoplasts from P. cornucopiae were established. The concentraion of enzyme system containing Novozym 234, ${\beta}-D-glucanase$ and ${\beta}-glucuronidase$ was $5mg\;ml^{-1}$ each. The osmotic stabilizer most effective for protoplast isolation was O.6 M sucrose. The optimal reaction time of mycelium with the lytic mixture was 90 min in a shaking condition at 120 strokes $min^{-1}$. When the myelium of P. cornucopiae was cultured for 4 days on mushroom complete medium at $28^{\circ}C$, the formation of protoplast was effective. When the pH of the digestion mixture with O.6 M sucrose as stabilizer varied between pH 4.0 and 7.0, the production of protoplasts was effective in phosphate buffer (pH 6.2) and Na-maleate buffer (pH 5.0). Generally, phosphate buffer was more effective for protoplast isolation than Na-maleate buffer, but 0.6 M sucrose osmotic stabilizer without adjusting pH was most effective. Using these conditions, protoplasts from P. cornucopiae were obtained at a ratio $1{\times}10^7\;ml^{-1}$.

In order to measure cellular physiological activity including ion channel activity, protoplasts were isolated from the root tissue of tomato plant. The general methods recommended were not efficient enough to make protoplasts from the root tissue. Among various conditions tested, we found that a two-step treatment of osmosis is very efficient for the isolation of protoplasts. In this procedure, root tissues were preincubated in a solution containing 300 mM sorbitol for 30 min. Then, they moved to the reaction solution containing 700 mM sorbitol as well as cell wall-digesting enzymes. The formation of protoplast was greatly increased by this method. In order to find the optimal condition of the two-step method, various conditions of pH, osmotic pressure, incubation time, and the concentrations of cell wall-digesting enzymes were tested. The yield of protoplast isolation was maximal at pH 5.0 after 2 hr incubation. Mixed enzymes of 3% cellulase, 1 % macerozyme, and 0.1 % pectolyase showed maximal protoplast isolation. The physiological activity of isolated protoplast evaluated by measuring the cellular ATPase activity was as high as that measured from the preparation of root tissue. The protoplasts isolated by this method were remained healthy up to 4 hrs which is enough time to measure the cellular physiological activity. These results show that the two-step treatment of osmotic pressure was successful to obtain high yield of healthy protoplast from tomato root tissue.

To treat wastewater efficiently by a one-step process of nitrogen removal, a new strain of $N_2-producing$ bacteria from $NH{_4}{^+}$ under an aerobic condition was isolated and identified. By 16S-rDNA analysis, the isolate was identified as Enterobacter asburiae with 96% similarity. The isolate shows that the capacity of $N_2$ production under an oxic condition was approximately three times higher than that under an anoxic condition. The optimal conditions (pH, temperature and C/N ratio) of the immobilized isolate for $N_2$ production were found to be 7.0, $30^{\circ}C$ and 5, respectively. Under all the optimum reaction conditions, the removal efficiency of $COD_{Cr}$ and TN reached 56.1 and 60.9%, respectively. The removal rates of $COD_{Cr}$ and TN were highest for the first 2.5 hrs (with the removal $COD_{Cr}$ ratios of 32.1), and afterwards the rates decreased as reaction proceeded. For application of the immobilized isolate to a practical process of ammonium removal, a continuous bioreactor system exhibited a satisfactory performance at HRT of 12.1 hr, in which the effluent concentrations of $NH{_4}{^+}-N$ was measured to be 15.4 mg/L with its removal efficiency of 56.0%. The maximum removal rate of $NH{_4}{^+}-N$ reached 1.6 mg $NH{_4}{^+}-N/L/hr$ at HRT of 12.1 hr (with N loading rate of 0.08 $Kg-N/m^3-carrier/d)$. As a result, the application of the immobilized isolate appears a viable alternative to the nitrification-denitrification processes.

Doping process of crystalline silicon solar cell process is very important which is as influential on efficiency of solar. Doping process consists of pre -deposition and diffusion. Each of these processes is important in the process temperature and process time. Through these process conditions variable, p-n junction depth can be controled to low and high. In this paper, we studied a optimized doping pre-deposition temperature for high solar cell efficiency. Using a $200{\mu}m$ thickness multi-crystalline silicon wafer, fixed conditions are texture condition, sheet resistance($50\;{\Omega}/sq$), ARC thickness(80nm), metal formation condition and edge isolation condition. The three variable conditions of pre-deposition temperature are $790^{\circ}C$, $805^{\circ}C$ and $820^{\circ}C$. In the $790^{\circ}C$ pre-deposition temperature, we achieved a best solar cell efficiency of 16.2%. Through this experiment result, we find a high efficiency condition in a low pre-deposition temperature than the high pre-deposition temperature. We optimized a pre-deposition temperature for high solar cell efficiency.

The hydrogen-producing bacterium was isolated from fresh water and identified as Enterobacter cloacae. The isolated was named Enterobacter cloacae YJ-1. In batch culture, The optimum cultivation temperature and pH of strain YJ-1 was 35℃ and 7.5, respectively. All of the added glucose was consumed completely during fermentation even though pH was not controlled. Amount of hydrogen produced on each condition of 2% glucose, 4% sucrose and 5% fructose was 950, 1000 and 948 mL/L, respectively and resulted in increasing hydrogen production approximately 2.5-times more than controlled condition. The maximum hydrogen production was obtained when 50 mM phosphate was added. In repeated-batch culture, hydrogen gas of 1920 mL/L was totally produced for 48. The maximum hydrogen was produced on the condition of 0.5% yeast extract, but the production amount was not changed on the condition of over 0.5%. Most of the organic acids produced during the fermentation were formic and acetic acid, and propionic acid was moiety also generated.

A bacterial strain which utilizes phenol under denitrifying condition was isolated from the industrial waste water collected from the Chong-ju Industrial Complex. The strain was identified as Pseudomonas species from the morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics and designated as HL100. The strain can utilize phenol as the sole source of carbon and energy when nitrate is provided as the terminal electron acceptor. The isolated strain completely degraded 3 mM of phenol within 110 hour with concomitant reduction of nitrate to nitrite. The observed maximum doubling time was 20 hours. Under appropriate condition, complete reduction of nitrate to atmospheric N$_2$ was observed indicating that the isolated strain could perform complete steps of denitrification. The strain showed optimal growth at pH 7.0 and temperature of 37$^{\circ}C$ under denitrifying phenol-degrading condition. The strain can also utilize toluene as the sole carbon and energy source under the same growth condition. However, no growth was detected on xylene and benzene.

A series of tests was conducted for full-scale single-pylon asymmetric cable-stayed bridges using a system of multiple shaking tables. The 2-span bridge length was 28 m, and the pylon height was 10.2 m. 4 different base conditions were considered: the fixed condition, RB (rubber bearings), LRB (lead rubber bearings), and HDRB (high damping rubber bearings). Based on investigation of the seismic response, the accelerations and displacements in the axial direction of the isolated bridge were increased compared to non-isolated case. However, the strain of the pylon was decreased, because the major mode of the structure was changed to translation for the axial direction due to the dynamic mass. The response of the cable bridge could differ from the desired response according to the locations and characteristics of the seismic isolator. Therefore, caution is required in the design and prediction in regard to the location and behavior of the seismic isolator.
