In our domestic software industries, it is focused on such a high quality development/ testing process, maturity measurement, and so on. But the real industrial fields are still working on a code-centric development. Most of the existing legacy systems did not keep the design and highly increased the code complexity with more patching of the original codes. To solve this problem, we adopt a code visualization technique which is important to reduce the code complexity among modules. To do this, we suggest a tool chaining method based on the existing open source software tools, which extends NIPA's Software Visualization techniques applied to procedural languages. In addition, it should be refactored to fix bad couplings of the quality measurement indicators within the code visualization. As a result, we can apply reverse engineering to the legacy code, that is, from programming via model to architecture, and then make high quality software with this approach.

Undoped $SnO_x$ thin films were deposited on Si(100) substrate by using reactive ioassisted deposition technique (R-IAD). In order to investigate the effect of initial oxygen content and heat treatment on the oxidation state and crystalline structure of tin oxide films, $SnO_x$ thin films were post-annealed at 400~$600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. in a vacuum ~$5 \times 10^{-3}$ -3/ Torr or were directly deposited on the substrate of $400^{\circ}C$ and the relative arrival ration ($Gamma$) of oxygen ion to Sn metal varied from 0.025 to 0.1, i.e., average impinging energy ($E_a$) form 25 to 100 eV/atom. As $E_a$ increased, the composition ratio of $N_ON{sn}$ changed from 1.25 to 1.93 in post-annealing, treatment and 1.21 to 1.87 in in-situ substrate heating. In case of post-annealing, the oxidation from SnO to $SnO_2$ was closely related to initial oxygen contents and post-annealing temperature, and the perfect oxidation of $SnO_2$ in the film was obtained at higher than $E_a$=75 eV/atom and $600^{\circ}C$. The temperature for perfect oxidation of $SnO_2$ was reduced as low as $400^{\circ}C$ through in-situ substrate heating. The variation of the chemical state of $SnO_x$ thin films with changing $E_a$'s and heating method were also observed by Auger electron spectroscopy.

A novel serine/threonine protein phosphatase with EF-hand motif, which belongs to PPEF family was partially cloned from rat brain cDNA by employing RT-PCR method. The size of the amplified clone was 1.6kbp. The amplified DNA was subcloned into pGEM-T-Easy vector and the resulting plasmid was maned as pGEM-rPPEF2. The nucleuotide sequence is shared by 88% with that of mouse PPEF-2 cDNA, and the deduced amino acid sequence reveal 92% homology with that of mouse PPEF-2 cDNA. The N-terminal region of the cloned rat brain PPEF contains a putative phosphatase catalytic domain (PP domain) and the C-terminal region contains multiple $Ca^{2+}$ binding sites (EF region). The putative catalytic domin (PP) and the EF-hand motif (EF) regions were subcloned into pGEX4T-1 and were overexpressed in E. coli DH5 as glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins. Expression of the desired fusion protein was identified by SDS-PAGE and also by immunoblot analysis using monoclonal antibody against GST. The recombinant proteins were purified by glutathione-agarose chromatography. This report is first to demonstrate the cloning of PPEF family from rat brain tissues. The clone reported here would be invaluable for the investigation of the role of this new type-phosphatase in rat brain.

The use of aluminum-based coagulants in water pretreatment is being carefully considered because aluminum exposure is a risk factor for the onset of Alzheimer's disease. Lightly burned-dolomite kiln dust (LB-DKD) was evaluated as an alternative coagulant because it contains high levels of the healthful minerals calcium and magnesium. An organic pore forming agent (OPFA) was incorporated to prepare porous granules after OPFA removal through a thermal decomposition process. A spray drying method was used to produce uniform and reproducible spherical granules with low density, since fine dolomite particles have irregular agglomeration behavior in the hydration reaction. The use of fine dolomite powder and different porosity granules led to a visible color change in raw algae (RA) containing water, from dark green to transparent colorlessness. Also, dolomite powders and granules exhibited a mean removal efficiency of 48.3% in total nitrogen (T-N), a gradual increase in the removal efficiency of total phosphorus (T-P) as granule porosity increased. We demonstrate that porous dolomite granules can improve the settling time and water quality in summer seasons for the emergent treatment of excessive algal blooms in eutrophic water.

There are being two prominent studying for Digital Radiography. Direct and Indirect method of Digital Radiography are announced for producing high quality digital image. The one is using amorphous selenium as photoconductor and the other is using phosphor layer as a light conversion. But each two systems have strength and weakness such as high voltage and blurring effect. In this study, we investigated the electrical characteristic of $multi-layer\left(CaWO_{4}+a-Se \right)$ as a photoconductor according to the changing arsenic composition ratio. This is a basic research for developing of Hybrid digital radiography which is a new type X-ray detector. The arsenic composition ratio of a-Se compound is classified into 7 different kinds which have 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 5%, 10% and were made test sample throught thermo-evaporation. The phosphor layer of $CaWO_4$ was overlapped on a-Se using EFIRON optical adhesives. We measured the dark and photo current about the test sample and compared the electrical characteristic of the net charge and signal-to-noise ratio. Among other things, test sample of compound material of 0.3% arsenic showed good characteristic of $2.45nA/cm^2$ dark current and $357.19pC/cm^2/mR$ net charge at $3V/{\mu}m$.

A bacterium AB-55, isolated from waste mushroom bed of Agaricus bisporus in Sukseong-myeon, Buyeo-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, was screened onto xylan agar congo-red plate by the xylanolysis method and was used to produce an xylanase in shaker buffle flask cultures containing oat spelt xylans. The phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequence data showed that the strain AB-55 had the highest homology (99.0%) with Bacillus subtilis and it was named as Bacillus subtilis AB-55. A xylanase was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation (50~80%), gel filtration on sephacryl S-300, and ion exchange chromatography on DEAE sepharose FF. The molecular weight of the xylanase was estimated as 44 kDa by SDS-PAGE. Optimal pH and temperature for the xylanase activity was pH 7 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was identified as Ser-Ala-Val-Lys-His-Gly-Ala-Ile-Val-Phe. The substrate specificity of the enzyme exhibited that it hydrolyzed efficiently oat spelt xylan as well as beechwood xylan, but showed no activity against Avicel and carboxymethyl clellulose (CMC). The enzyme activity was enhanced by $Fe^{2+}$ and $Mn^{2+}$ whereas was entirely inhibited by $Hg^+$.

Physical properties and microstructure of new coumarin 4 doped $SiO_2$-PDMS ORMOSILs, synthesized by one-step (OS, acid-catalysis) and two-step (TS, acid-base catalysis) routes of sol-gel method with varying pH (0.6 to 7) and dye content $(5\;{times}\;10^{-4}\;to\;5{\times}\;10^{-2}\;mole)$, are reported. BET, UV-visible spectroscopy and SEM were used for characterizations. The increase in acid or base concentration increased the size of pores and aggregated silica particles. The samples with pH ≤ 2.5 were transparent and attributed to the small size of pores (~20 Å) and silica particles. The samples with pH > 2.5 were translucent or opaque due to non-uniform pore system formed by voids and large aggregated silica particles. The surface area was found a key factor controlling the interactions between the gel matrix and the dye. The OS samples with the highest dye concentration exhibited the minimal values of pore size, surface area and silica particle size, resulting in the concentration-quenching phenomenon.
