Color is one of the most important quality factors of red ginseng (Hong-sam) which is processed from fresh ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer). Therefore, a study of characteristics of browning mixtures of aqueous fresh ginseng extracts, factors which accelerate the browning of the aqueous extracts, and the antioxidant activity of the browning mixtures may contribute to the improvement of the color and other quality of red ginseng and other ginseng products such as ginseng extracts. In the present study, factors which affect the Maillard-type browning reaction of aqueous extracts of fresh ginseng roots were investigated firstly by adding various concentrations (0.001-0.5M) of arginine or glucose solutions, by varying the browning reaction temperatures and durations. Secondly, some characteristics such as brown color intensity, amounts of water-soluble and ether-soluble extracts, amounts of non-dialyzable materials, pH, viscosity, and reactivity with 2,2'- diphenyl -1 - picrylhydrazyl and antioxidant activity of the browning mixtures of the aqueous fresh ginseng extracts with small amounts of 0.1 M arginine, 0.1 M glucose, and distilled water at various browning temperatures and reaction time were studied. The results of the present study are as follows. 1. Color intensity (absorbance at 470 nm) of the browning mixtures was increased by adding various concentrations of arginine solution to the fresh ginseng extract, but the addition of the same amount of glucose solution did not increase the color intensity. 2 The amounts of water- or ether-soluble extracts, amounts of non-dialyzable materials were slightly greater in case of the browning mixtures of the fresh ginseng extract with 0.1M arginine solution than in case of the browning mixtures of the fresh ginseng extract with the same amount of 0.1 M glucose solution. In the process of the browning reaction, the pH of the browning mixtures of the fresh ginseng extract with 0.1 M arginine solution decreased slightly, while that of the browning mixtures with 0. 1 M glucose solution was almost constant. 3. The color intensity (absorbance at 470 nm) of the browning mixtures of the fresh ginseng extract with 0.1 M arginine or 0.1 M glucose solutions did not correlate well with the reducing power or the antioxidant power of the browning mixtures. The antioxidant activity of 90% ethanol extracts from the earlier stages of the browning mixtures of the fresh ginseng extract with the arginine solution was almost comparable to that of the 90% ethanol extracts from the later stages of the corresponding browning mixtures. The browning mixtures of only the fresh ginseng extract or of the fresh ginseng extract with the glucose solution showed considerable antioxidant activity, although both showed less brown color intensity than the fresh ginseng extract with he arginine solution.

In general, the line balancing problem is defined as of finding an assignment of the given jobs to the workstations under the precedence constraints given to the set of jobs. Usually, the objective is either minimizing the cycle time under the given number of workstations or minimizing the number of workstations under the given cycle time. In this paper, we present a new type of an assembly line balancing problem which occurs in an electronics company manufacturing home appliances. The main difference of the problem compared to the general line balancing problem lies in the structure of the precedence given to the set of jobs. In the problem, the set of jobs is partitioned into two disjoint subjects. One is called the set of fixed jobs and the other, the set of floating jobs. The fixed jobs should be processed in the linear order and some pair of the jobs should not be assigned to the same workstations. Whereas, to each floating job, a set of ranges is given. The range is given in terms of two fixed jobs and it means that the floating job can be processed after the first job is processed and before the second job is processed. There can be more than one range associated to a floating job. We present a procedure to find an approximate solution to the problem. The procedure consists of two major parts. One is to find the assignment of the floating jobs under the given (feasible) assignment of the fixed jobs. The problem can be viewed as a constrained bin packing problem. The other is to find the assignment of the whole jobs under the given linear precedence on the set of the floating jobs. First problem is NP-hard and we devise a heuristic procedure to the problem based on the transportation problem and matching problem. The second problem can be solved in polynomial time by the shortest path method. The algorithm works in iterative manner. One step is composed of two phases. In the first phase, we solve the constrained bin packing problem. In the second phase, the shortest path problem is solved using the phase 1 result. The result of the phase 2 is used as an input to the phase 1 problem at the next step. We test the proposed algorithm on the set of real data found in the washing machine assembly line.

TCP/IP processing imposes a heavy load on the host CPU when it is processed by the host CPU on a very high-speed network. Recently the TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE), which processes TCP/IP on a network adapter instead of the host CPU, has become an attractive solution to reduce the load in the host CPU. There have been two approaches to implement TOE. One is the software TOE in which TCP/IP is processed by an embedded processor and the other is the hardware TOE in which TCP/IP is processed by a dedicated ASIC. The software TOE has poor performance and the hardware TOE is neither flexible nor expandable enough to add new features. In this paper we designed and implemented a hybrid TOE architecture, in which TCP/IP is processed by cooperation of hardware and software, based on an FPGA that has two embedded processor cores. The hybrid TOE can have high performance by processing time-critical operations such as making and processing data packets in hardware. The software based on the embedded Linux performs operations that are not time-critical such as connection establishment, flow control and congestions, thus the hybrid TOE can have enough flexibility and expandability. To improve the performance of the hybrid TOE, we developed a hardware-based transmission/reception accelerator that processes important operations such as creating data packets. In the experiments the hybrid TOE shows the minimum latency of about $19{\mu}s$. The CPU utilization of the hybrid TOE is below 6 % and the maximum bandwidth of the hybrid TOE is about 675 Mbps.

In case of doenjang, solution of browning problem might be an important remedy in order to dissolve consumers' dissatisfaction, therefore this study was performed to develop traditional doenjang which has improved in color aspect for consumers' needs. Physicochemical compositions and color values of commercialized traditional doenjang which was processed by history references of our country, were analyzed. doenjang used as samples were processed with traditional meju, which were made with soybean and mixed with various rates after following process such as soaking, steaming, cooling, chopping and grinding. The doenjang processed were storaged at $30^{\circ}C$ for 27 days, and their amino-N, pH, color values and sensory evaluation were analyzed with fermentation period. Furthermore, nitrogen results analyzed were compared with that of commercialized traditional doenjang. In the comparison with control, treated with only traditional meju, and doenjang treatments processed with different mixing rates of traditional meju and steamed soybean, the content of amino-N in control were higher than the others, and the contents of amino-N decreased with increasing contents of steamed soybean. Their pH were changed weak alkalic region into weak acidic region with fermentation period. In the aspect of color, traditional doenjang having the rate of traditional meju and steamed soybean (1:4) was most improved and also, in comparison of result of sensory evaluation with commercial traditional doenjang, its color, taste and falvor were evaluated predominent, therefore it might be thought to have competition on the market.

Hafnium Oxide (HfOx) has been attracted as a promising gate dielectric for replacing SiO2 in gate stack applications. In this paper, Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) capacitor with solution processed HfO2 high-k material as a dielectric were fabricated. The solvent using $HfOCl2{\cdot}8H2O$ dissolve in 2-Methoxy ethanol was prepared at 0.3M. The HfOx layers were deposited on p-type silicon substrate by spin-coating at $250^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes on a hot plate and repeated the same cycle for 5 times, followed by annealing process at 350, 450 and $550^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. When the annealing temperature was increased from 350 to $550^{\circ}C$, capacitance value was increased from 337 to 367 pF. That was resulted from the higher temperature of HfOx which have more crystallization phase, therefore dielectric constant (k) was increased from 11 to 12. It leads to the formation of dense HfOx film and improve the ability of the insulator layer. We confirm that HfOx layer have a good performance for dielectric layer in MOS capacitors.

We fabricated dual active layer (DAL) thin film transistors (TFTs) with indium tin zinc oxide (ITZO) and indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) thin film layers using solution process. The ITZO and IGZO layer were used as the front and back channel, respectively. In order to investigate the bias stress stability of ITZO SAL (single active layer) and ITZO/IGZO DAL TFT, a gate bias stress of 10 V was applied for 1500 s under the dark condition. The SAL TFT composed of ITZO layer shows a poor positive bias stability of ${\delta}VTH$ of 13.7 V, whereas ${\delta}VTH$ of ITZO/IGZO DAL TFT was very small as 2.6 V. In order to find out the evidence of improved bias stress stability, we calculated the total trap density NT near the channel/gate insulator interface. The calculated NT of DAL and SAL TFT were $4.59{\times}10^{11}$ and $2.03{\times}10^{11}cm^{-2}$, respectively. The reason for improved bias stress stability is due to the reduction of defect sites such as pin-hole and pores in the active layer.

In order to investigate the effect of front channel in DAL (dual active layer) TFT (thin film transistor), we successfully fabricated DAL TFT composed of ITZO and IGZO as active layer using the solution process. In this structure, ITZO and IGZO active layer were used as front and back channel, respectively. The front channel was changed from 0.05 to 0.2 M at fixed 0.3 M IGZO of back channel. When the mol concentration of front channel was increased, the threshold voltage (VTH) was increased from 2.0 to -11.9 V and off current also was increased from 10-12 to 10-11. This phenomenon is due to increasing the carrier concentration by increasing the volume of the front channel. The saturation mobility of DAL TFT with 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 M ITZO were 0.45, 4.3, and $0.65cm2/V{\cdot}s$. Even though 0.2 M ITZO has higher carrier concentration than 0.05 and 0.1 M ITZO, the 0.1 M ITZO/0.3 M IGZO DAL TFT has the highest saturation mobility. This is due to channel defect such as pores and pin-holes. These defect sites were created during deposition process by solvent evaporation. Due to these defect sites, the 0.1 M ITZO/0.3 M IGZO DAL TFT shows the higher saturation mobility than that of DAL TFT with front channel of 0.2 M ITZO.

A capacitance-type sensor using porous silicon layer is developed to measure aqueous alcohol concentration. Since alcohol, so called ethanol, is very permeable into the silicon wafer, it is often used to help chemical reaction when the silicon wafer is processed under some aqueous solution. In this work, the sensing property was measured for the alcohol concentration from zero to near 100 percent with two types of samples with porous silicon layer formed in 25 and 35% HF solution, respectively. Good reliability as well as fast response time and good linearity were shown over 10kHz and the measured capacitance was observed to be inverse to alcohol concentration due to the decrease of the whole dielectric constant in porous silicon layer.

This study has been carried out to develop a standard method for quantifying of 3 permitted artificial sweeteners (including sodium saccharine, aspartame, acesulfame potassium) contained in foods by HPLC-DAD. A simple and rapid sample pretreatment method was used to remove fat and protein from the test solution with Carrez clearing regent precipitant know to be effective for protein and fat removal. The artificial sweeteners in the test solution purified through sample pretreatment were detected by high performance liquid chromatograph using a Reverse phase C18 column (5 ㎛, 4.6 × 250 mm). The simultaneous quantitative test of 3 kinds of artificial sweeteners can be effectively performed on the high fat emulsified foods containing a large amount of fat. Using the established simultaneous quantitative test method, artificial sweeteners were tested in foods such as dairy products, snacks and chocolate. The results calibration curve showed good linearity with high regression coefficients and the result of recovery test showed satisfactory recoveries within 80~110 %.

In this paper we Study a time-optimal model of pursuit in which the players move on a plane with bounded velocities. This game is supposed to be a nonzero-sum group pursuit game. The main point of the work is to construct and compare cooperative and non-cooperative solutions in the game and make a conclusion about cooperation possibility in differential pursuit games. We consider all possible cooperations of the players in the game. For that purpose for every game $\Gamma(x_0,y_0,z_0)$ we construct the corresponding game in characteristic function form $\Gamma_v(x_0,y_0,z_0)$. We show that in this game there exists the nonempty core for any initial positions of the players. The core can take four various forms depending on initial positions of the players. We study how the core changes when the game is proceeding. For the original agreement (an imputation from the original core) to remain in force at each current instant t it is necessary for the core to be time-consistent. Nonemptiness of the core in any current subgame constructing along a cooperative trajectory and its time-consistency are shown. Finally, we discuss advantages and disadvantages of choosing this or that imputation from the core.
