WC-Co cemented carbides were consolidated using spark plasma sintering in the temperature 1400℃ with transition metal carbides addition. The densification depended on exponentially as a function of sintering exponent. Moreover, the secondary (M, W) C_x phases were formed at the grain boundaries of WC basal facet. Corresponded, to increase the basal facets lead to the plastic deformation and oriented grain growth. A higher hardness was correlated with their grain size and lattice strain. We suggest that this is due to the formation energy of (M, W)C_x attributed to inhibit the grain growth and separates the WC/Co interface.

3D printing technology is changing the paradigm of consumer-oriented design in supplier-oriented mass production. 3D printing technology in construction is expected to be able to replace existing wet methods along with modular construction. Recently, a number of cases of building construction using 3D printing using mortar-based materials have been announced in many regions, including North America, Europe, and Asia. In this study, we developed a design support tool with a slicing function to output 3D modeling for architecture for a 3D printing machine. We analyzed the process and the function of slicing programs that are commercially available. Seven slicing functions required for the architectural field were derived by analyzing cases, expert reviews, and related literature. The derived functions were extended from the slicing functions to develop the design support tools. Detailed algorithms and processes need to be developed for future derived functions.

With the enlargement of wireless technology, vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) are rising as a hopeful way to realize smart cities and address a lot of vital transportation problems such as road security, convenience, and efficiency. To achieve data confidentiality, integrity and authentication applying lightweight cryptosystems is widely recognized as a rather efficient approach for the VANETs. The Khudra cipher is such a lightweight cryptosystem with a typical Generalized Feistel Network, and supports 80-bit secret key. Up to now, little research of fault analysis has been devoted to attacking Khudra. On the basis of the single nibble-oriented fault model, we propose a differential fault analysis on Khudra. The attack can recover its 80-bit secret key by introducing only 2 faults. The results in this study will provides vital references for the security evaluations of other lightweight ciphers in the VANETs.

Cloud computing has become a new paradigm by enabling on-demand provisioning of applications, platforms or computing resources for clients. Workflow scheduling has always been treated as one of the most challenging problems in clouds. Commercial clouds have been widely used in scientific research, such as biology, astronomy and weather forecasting. Certainly, it is very important for a cloud service provider to pursue the profits for the commercial essence of clouds. This is also significantly important for the case of providing services to workflow tasks. In this paper, we address the issues of workflow scheduling in commercial clouds. This work takes the communication into account, which has always been ignored. And then, a topology-based workflow-scheduling algorithm named Resource Auction Algorithm (REAL) is proposed in the objective of getting more profits. The algorithm gives a good performance on searching for the optimum schedule for a sample workflow. Also, we find that there exists a certain resource amount, which gets the most profits to help us get more enthusiasm for further developing the research. Experimental results demonstrate that the analysis of the strategies for most profits is reasonable, and REAL gives a good performance on efficiently getting an optimized scheme with low computing complexity.

This paper presents an exploratory research on the application of the Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) to the domain of object orientation to investigate the validity of TAM in the perspective of its causal relationships. In the Management Information Systems(MIS) area, TAM has been applied to computer usage behavior as a specific technology adoption model. This paper also suggests the factors that affect the technology acceptance of object orientation in U.S. organizations through a modified TAM. Two major research questions are addressed. First, this research investigates the effect of these external variables on the dependent variable, the actual usage of object orientation in the viewpoint of knowledge interaction between structured methods and object orientation. Second, is TAM valid for the technology acceptance of object orientation in terms of its causal relationships? This study empirically explores the impact of the external variables on the level of actual usage of object orientation via the mediating variables in TAM. A structured questionnaire is administered to Data Processing Management Association(DPMA) professionals in US. The result of this study reveals one important contradictory finding that is not consistent with expectations based on related theory. TAM does not accommodate the technology acceptance of object orientation perhaps because object orientation is a complex and organization-level adoptive technology or the measures for the mediating constructs in TAM may not be appropriate in industry settings.

In this paper, efficiencies of core technology development projects, conducted by Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, are compared. In the process, DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) is utilized as a main technique for comparing efficiencies. For DEA, input oriented BCC Model is adopted with government grant, recipient expenditure, the number of participating institutions, and project duration as input factors, and the number of patents, the number of papers, and occurred sales as output factors. As a result, next generation mobile communication project turns out to be the most efficient project of all. Therefore, next generation mobile communication project should be benchmarked for the other projects to follow. However, these results should be used only for reference data since every project has a different objective and, of course, is run under a different environment.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of a convergence approach, which applies both home environment modification applied with assistive technology and task-oriented intervention using a fall safety checklist, on the fall efficacy and activity level of stroke patients. 41 persons with stroke(21 experimental groups and 20 control groups) were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group was applied environmental modification and the task-oriented intervention using the fall safety checklist for 4 weeks. The control group was provided only the environmental modification. Before and after the intervention, the Korean Activity Card Sort (KACS) and the Korean Falls Efficacy Scale-Korean version (FES-K) were used for evaluation. There was no significant difference in fall efficacy and activity level change between the experimental group and the control group. Both the experimental group and the control group significantly improved the fall efficacy and activity level after the intervention. By applying the results of this study to the clinical field, it will be possible to support stroke patients to live safely and actively participate in the community.

Human, object, and environment have been set as basic factors as the subjects smoothly exchanges various types of information in the physical space, and the trend in digital technology is analyzed. From a human-oriented perspective, the background and development trend of digital technology has been analyzed under the theme of interaction and interlace. From an object-oriented perspective, an analysis was unfolded under the theme of products' evolvement from radios to robots. From an environment-focused perspective, an analysis has been carried out under the theme of situation recognition, intrinsic factors, and integration and connectivity. By applying the analytic results, the types of studies that predict the future of ubiquitous space and generate concepts have been classified and analyzed into three different types of studies for experiment, industry, and public. In this manner, ubiquitous space has been forecasted. This study seeks a systematic analysis of the understanding of the trends in digital technology and employs a case study of ubiquitous space based on systematic analysis. In consideration of all these, this study is expected to contribute to concept generation and development by designers.
