For the automation of Koji incubation process, microcomputer based Koji incubation system was built and applied to acquisition of the process variables, and to control of the Koji incubation process. The incubation variables included the relative humidity and Koji weight. And data measured were sent to the microcomputer by the interface device built with MC 6821 PIA. Incubation environment conditions -temperature and humidity- were controlled by the actuation of heater and mist sprayer with on/off signal generated by ASIC program. Aspergillus oryzae as a starter of the Koji and steamed barley as media were used and Koji was successfully manufactured both at $25^{\circ}C,\;70%$ RH and at $27^{\circ}C,\;80%$ RH. During the Koji preperation, the temperature was linearly increased and substrate was consumed stepwise showing 3 steps in the weight loss curve.

As the wafer geometric requirements continuously complicated and minutes in tens of nanometers, the expectation of real-time add-on sensors for in-situ plasma process monitoring is rapidly increasing. Various industry applications, utilizing plasma impedance monitor (PIM) and optical emission spectroscopy (OES), on etch end point detection, etch chemistry investigation, health monitoring, fault detection and classification, and advanced process control are good examples. However, process monitoring in semiconductor manufacturing industry requires non-invasiveness. The hypothesis behind the optical monitoring of plasma induced ion current is for the monitoring of plasma induced charging damage in non-invasive optical way. In plasma dielectric via etching, the bombardment of reactive ions on exposed conductor patterns may induce electrical current. Induced electrical charge can further flow down to device level, and accumulated charges in the consecutive plasma processes during back-end metallization can create plasma induced charging damage to shift the threshold voltage of device. As a preliminary research for the hypothesis, we performed two phases experiment to measure the plasma induced current in etch environmental condition. We fabricated electrical test circuits to convert induced current to flickering frequency of LED output, and the flickering frequency was measured by high speed optical plasma monitoring system (OPMS) in 10 kHz. Current-frequency calibration was done in offline by applying stepwise current increase while LED flickering was measured. Once the performance of the test circuits was evaluated, a metal pad for collecting ion bombardment during plasma etch condition was placed inside etch chamber, and the LED output frequency was measured in real-time. It was successful to acquire high speed optical emission data acquisition in 10 kHz. Offline measurement with the test circuitry was satisfactory, and we are continuously investigating the potential of real-time in-situ plasma induce current measurement via OPMS.

In this study, the potential of infrared assisted freeze-drying (IRAFD) was tested for the production of shelf-stable edible insects: Protaetia brevitarsis larva (larva of white-spotted flower chafer). The IRAFD system was customized using an infrared lamp, K-type thermocouple, controller, and data acquisition system. The infrared lamp provided the sublimation energy for rapid freeze-drying (FD). The IRAFD conditions were continuous IRAFD-5.0 kW/㎡ and IRAFD-5.0 kW/㎡ at different weight reduction (WR) (10%, 20%, and 30%). The continuous IRAFD reduced the drying time to 247 min compared to the 2,833 min duration of FD (p<0.05). The electrical energy could be reduced by more than 90% through infrared radiation during FD (p<0.05). The Page model resulted in the best prediction among the tested drying kinetic models. In terms of quality, IRAFD showed significantly lower hardness, chewiness, and higher protein levels than hot air drying and FD (p<0.05). IRAFD better preserved the glutamic acid (6.30-7.29 g/100 g) and proline (3.84-5.54 g/100 g). The external product appearance after IRAFD exhibited more air pockets and volume expansion, which might result in a good consumer appeal. In conclusion, this study reports the potential of IRAFD in producing shelf-stable and value-added edible insects.

SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system is widely used for remote monitoring and control throughout the domestic industry. Due to a recent breach of security on SCADA systems, such as Stuxnet, the need of correctly established secure certification of a control system is growing. Currently, EDSA-CRT (Embedded Device Security Assurance-Communication Robustness Test), which tests the ability to provide core services properly in a normal/abnormal network protocol, is only focused on the testing of IP-based protocols such as IP, ARP, TCP, etc. Thus, in this paper, we propose test requirements for DNP3 protocol based on EDSA-CRT. Our analysis show that the specific test cases provide plentiful evidences that DNP3 should follow based on its functional requirements. As a result, we propose 33 specific test case for DNP3 protocol.

In the present study, the flow characteristics of developing laminar oscillatory flows in a square -sectional 180 deg. curved duct are investigated experimentally. The experimental study using air in a square-sectional 180 deg. curved duct is carried out to measure velocity distributions with a data acquisition and LDV (Laser Doppler Velocimetry) processing system. In this system, Rotating Machinery Resolver (RMR) and PHASE program are used to obtain the results of unsteady flows. The major flow characteristics of developing oscillatory flows are found by analyzing velocity curves, mean velocity profiles, time-averaged velocity distribution of secondary flow, wall shear stress distributions, and entrance lengths. In a lower dimensionless angular frequency, the axial velocity distribution of laminar oscillatory flow in a curved duct shows a convex shape in a central part and axial symmetry. The maximum value of wall shear stress in a lower dimensionless angular frequency is located in an outside wall, but according to increasing the dimensionless angular frequency, the maximum of wall shear stress is moved to inner wall. The entrance lengths of laminar oscillatory flows in a square-sectional 180 deg. curved duct is obtained to 90 deg. of bended angle of duct in this experimental conditions.

We have successfully developed the KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) Solar Imaging Spectrograph (KSIS), which has been originally upgraded from the KASI solar spectrograph that was able to record solar spectra for a given slit region and to inspect the response function of narrow band filters. A prototype KSIS was developed in 2004 by using a scanning mirror in front of the spectrograph slit and a SBIG ST-8XE CCD camera. Its main disadvantage is that it took a long time (about 13 minutes) to scan a whole active region. In this work, we have upgraded the KSIS by installing a much faster Dalsa 1M15 CCD camera, which gives a data acquisition time of about 2.5 minutes. The software for KSIS was also improved for the new CCD camera on the basis of component-based development method. We have successfully made a test observation for a simple and small active region (AR10910) using the improved KSIS system. Our observations show that H-alpha images for several wavelengths have typical features in a sunspot as well as a H-alpha centerline image is quite similar to a BBSO H-alpha image, demonstrating the capability of the KSIS system.

전력계통의 원방감시제어시스템(SCADA)은 원방의 전력계동을 화면에 표시하고 감시하며 필요한 제어명령을 실행하는 시스템을 말한다. 철도청의 기존 전력계통 제어시스템은 UNIX를 기반으로 하여 특별히 교육 받은 운용자만이 감시제어 및 관리할 수 있고 구축비용이 많이 소요되며 지역 사무소에서 운용되기 때문에 원격지의 전력계통 사고의 경우 시스템 운용자는 현장의 근무자와 연락하여 사고의 원인을 파악하고 조치해야 하는 단점이 있다. 또한 새로운 통합 SCADA 시스템이 구축되면서 기존 지역사무소에서 운용하던 전력계통 제어시스템이 없어지고 중요 역사마다 지역사무소의 전력계통 제어시스템을 대체할 수 있는 소규모 전력계통 제어시스템의 설치가 요구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 UNIX를 기반으로 한 SCADA 시스템의 기능을 모두 수용하고 현장의 근무자들이 쉽게 감시제어 및 유지보수까지도 할 수 있는 경제적인 전력 계통 제어시스템을 개발하고자 한다. 소규모 전력 계통 제어시스템을 개발하기 위해 Cimon 이라는 산업자동화프로그램을 이용하였으며 철도청 철암 역사에 직접 시스템을 설치하여 원격소 장치(RTU)와 새로 추가 설치된 전자식배전반을 동시에 수용할 수 있는 소규모 전력계통 제어시스템을 개발하고 실험하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the ignition spark timing conversion influences the engine performance of LPG/Gasoline Bi-Fuel engine. We propose the control system which can advance the ignition spark timing in LPG fuel mode more than used in gasoline fuel mode. In order to investigate the engine performance during combustion, engine performance are sampled by data acquisition system, for example cylinder pressure, pressure rise rate and heat release rate, while change of the rpm(1500, 2000) and the ignition timing advance($5^{\circ}$,$10^{\circ}$,$15^{\circ}$,$20^{\circ}$) As the result, between 1500rpm and 2000rpm, the cylinder pressure and pressure rise rate was increased when the spark ignition was advanced but pressure rise rate at $20^{\circ}$was smaller value. Also, the heat release rate at 1500rpm was increased but it was lower around $20^{\circ}$at 2000rpm.
