Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized by liquid-phase and alcohol reduction methods. Silver-doped silica-complex nanoparticles were prepared using a sol-gel process. The formation, structure, morphology, and particle size of the nanoparticles have been studied using several techniques. Silver nanoparticles of size of 30-40 nm were formed successfully by alcohol reduction. TEM images show that both the concentration and the molecular weight of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) considerably affect the size of the emerging silver nanoparticles. The number of silver-doped silica-complex particles increased by a mercapto-group treatment that showed a narrower size distribution than that of silica treated with amino groups. The silver/polyester and silver-doped silica/polyester masterbatch chips showed excellent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

In order to improve the traditional post harvest system in Korea, a model for mechanized rice drying and storage system was developed and introduced as the first part of the study(Park, 1986). As the second part of the study, capital requirement and cost of the model system was analyzed. Also, optimum size of the model system was estimated by comparing with the traditional harvest system. From the study, the following results can be concluded: 1. The capital requirement of the model system decreases as the model size increases. For example, a model system having 500 ton storage capacity requires 439,000 Won/ton. However it requires 313,200 Won/ton only, if the model size increases to 1000 ton. 2. Also, total cost of the model system decreases as the model size increases. For example, total costs of the model system having 500 ton and 1000 ton storage capacity are 101,208 Won/ton and 69,320 Won/ton, respectively. 3. The breakeven point (optimum size) of the model can be estimated around 630 ton storage capacity if the operation rate is assumed as 100%. However, the optimum size of the model is 710 ton, if the operation rate it assumed 80%.

Effects of dark adaptation have large safety implications. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of varying illuminance and the size of critical detail on visual performance (i.e., time-to-detect) in a dark room environment. While adapting to the dark environment, ten subjects were asked to detect and answer simple numerical expressions under 9 experimental conditions (3 illuminance level $\times$ 3 target size). The ANOVA results revealed that the time-to-detect was significantly affected by both of the illumination level and the size of critical detail. As illumination increased from 10 lux to 20 lux, the time-to-detect was significantly declined. For the size of critical detail, 0.5/min size (i.e., equal to 2 minutes of visual angle) resulted in a shorter time-to-detect, as compared to 0.7/min size (i.e., equal to 1.6 minutes of visual angle). Potential applications of this research include the development of design guidelines for illumination and warning signs in poorly illuminated viewing environments.

Aerosol mass size distributions were investigated at 865 m high the of Jirisan national park. A nanosampler cascade impactor was used to collect aerosols. The atmospheric aerosol particles had a unimodal mass size distribution, which peaked at $0.5-1.0{\mu}m$, and a mass aerodynamic diameter of $1.13{\mu}m$. The annual average concentrations of TSP, $PM_{10}$, $PM_{2.5}$, $PM_1$, $PM_{0.5}$ and $PM_{0.1}$ were $20.9{\mu}g/m^3$, $19.3{\mu}g/m^3$, $14.9{\mu}g/m^3$, $10.7{\mu}g/m^3$, $5.3{\mu}g/m^3$, $1.2{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. TSP concentrations were below $30{\mu}g/m^3$ during the sampling period. On average $PM_{10}$, $PM_{2.5}$, $PM_1$, $PM_{0.5}$ and $PM_{0.1}$ made up 0.91, 0.70, 0.41, 0.19 and 0.07 of TSP, respectively. The annual average of PM2.5/PM10 ratio was 0.77.

The primitive of Identity-Based Broadcast Encryption allows a sender to distribute session keys or messages for a dynamically changing set of receivers using the receiver's identity as a public key. We already know that the trade-off exists the efficiency between the public parameter size and the ciphertext size. So, if the ciphertext size is O(1), then the public parameter size may be O(n). Some of IBBE scheme take the public parameters as input in decryption phase. Thus, a decryption device (or client) has to store the public parameters or receive it. This means that a decryption device (or client) has to have the proper size storage. Recently, delerabl$\square$e proposed an IBBE which have the O(1) size ciphertexts and the O(n) size public parameters. In this paper, we present an IBBE scheme. In our construction the ciphertext size and the public parameter size are sub-linear in the total number of receivers, and the private key size is constant.

The elemental characteristics of atmospheric aerosols were investigated as a function of particle size and water solubility. The aerosol particles were samples at 12 individual size ranges between 0.01 and 30㎛. Collected aerosol particles were separated into both soluble and insoluble components. The concentrations of 15 elements in both components were determined by a PIXE analysis using a 2.0 MeV-proton beam. In general, the mass size distribution of particulate matter was represented as a bimodal distribution. The maximum rations of S in July and December were 5.5 and 3.8 %, and they appeared in the size range of 0.47∼1.17㎛(stage No. 6 or 7) . The ratios of a S at non-separated size were 3.1 and 2.2 % in July and December, respectively, On the other hand, the maximum rations of Si in July and December were 7.0 and 5.4% and they appeared in the size range of 5.1∼30㎛(stage No. 0∼2). The ratios of Si at the non-separated size were 2.1 and 1.8% in July and December, respectively, The mass diameter of 12 elements ranged between 0.59㎛ of S and 3.20 of Fe. More than 90% of atmospheric aerosols consisted of the light elements such as C, N, O, H and Al. The soluble component was dominant in the smaller size range and the insoluble component in the larger size range. Large portions of Si. Ti and Fe existed in insoluble state. By contrast, S, Cl, Ca, Zn and Br were dissolved in water.

A software growth model, a mathematical model describing the growth behavior of a software system during the evolution process, enables us to predict the future system size and incremental erfort required to meet the planned system size. This paper first introduces a software growth model defined with respect to the cumulative incremental effort. It was assumed that the incremental growth of a software system is proportional to the incremental effort and function of the system size is suggested as a system complexity and then applied to real data for its validation. such a system complexity additionally provides us with a measure for complexity comparison. since the measure is independent of the system size, it is useful for comparing complexities of software systems of different size.

W CMP 공정에서 abrasive 의 size 및 shape 에 따른 CMP 거동에 대해 관찰하였으며, 주요 제거 막질인 W 막질과 stopping layer 로 사용되는 Oxide 막질에 대한 압력(P)과 상대 속도(V) 영향성을 관찰하였다. CMP 제거량이 입자의 size 변화에 의존한다는 기존의 이론과는 달리 응집도(aggregate ratio) 변화가 주요 변수임을 밝혀 내었다. 한편, 각 막질에 대한 P,V 영향성 평가를 통해, 변형된 Prestonian equation 이 abrasive size 및 shape 에 상관없이 W 막질의 제거 거동을 설명하는데 중요한 역할을 수행함을 보였다. 그렇지만, W CMP 공정에서 stopping layer 로 사용되는 oxide 막질의 거동을 설명하는 데에는 어려움이 있었으며, 특히 P,V 에 의한 비선형적 removal rate(RR) 거동발생으로 인해 기존의 이론치와는 많은 차이를 나타내었다. 또한, abrasive size 와 shape 에 따라서도 복잡한 거동을 나타낸다.

This paper introduces a variable step-size adaptive algorithm for blind source separation. From the frequency characteristics of mixed input signals, we need to adjust the convergence speed regularly in each frequency bin. This algorithm varies a step-size according to the magnitude of input at each frequency bin. This guarantee of the regular convergence in each frequency bin would become more efficient in separation performances than conventional fixed step-size FDICA. Computer simulation results show the improvement of about 5 dB in signal to interference ratio (SIR) and the better separation quality.
