  • We identified the intake pattern and consumption propensity of milk and sought improvements to promote consumption of milk. We targeted 362 preschool children aged 5~7 years old who attended nursery school in the Bucheon area. Questionnaires were distributed and 328 questionnaires were collected. Approximately 36.2% of boys and 31.2% of gorls drank milk six times per week. A total of 32.9% of the preschool children drank more than 2 cups of milk/day. Approximately 72.9% of them currently drink white milk, and 46.0% preferred milk to processed milk. The reasons why they drink milk included 'want to be tall'(66.5%) and 'good health'(52.4%). Mothers(54.6%)and preschool children(39.3%) were the purchasers with the greatest impact on product purchases. Consumer propensity to buy milk was shown in the order of expiration date(4.80 points), and nutrition facts(4.01 points). (4.88 points) and enhanced nutrients(4.59 points) should be promoted for milk consumption. Therefore, it is thought that continuous nutrition education should be made together in order to increase consumption of milk of children and education targeting teachers and school parents should be conducted as well. And in order for children to drink milk without repulsion, the development of various products satisfying both symbolic aspects and nutritional aspects should continue to be made.

  • This paper is aimed to recognize trends of various social groups about multiple transportation policies such as the crosswalk restoration by eliminating the pedestrian overpasses and the improvement or continuous extension of existing pedestrian overpasses, currently implemented in Busan, following the globally prevailing pedestrian-oriented transportation environment. Also, this paper utilizes Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) to evaluate the efficiency of individual alternatives in terms of respondent's willingness-to-pay (WTP). Consequently, survey participants preferred the crosswalk or improvement of the pedestrian overpasses rather than depending on the existing pedestrian overpasses. In addition, the WTP value for the crosswalk restoration is approximately 42,452 won per household per year, and, on the other hand, the WTP value for the improvement of existing pedestrian overpasses is approximately 36,793 won per household per year, implicating that the transportation policy makers are suggested to place more priorities on crosswalk restoration than the improvement of the existing pedestrian overpasses.

  • Both the production of high spore concentration and high insecticidal activity are required in the production of Bacillus thuringiensis to be used for the bacterial insecticide. In the production of high cell and spore concentrations of B. thuringiensis the continuous fed-batch culture(CFBC) and intermittent fed-batch culture(IFBC) were investigated at $28^{\circ}C$ by maintaining 40% dissolved oxygen concentration. When the final glucose concentration was 50 g/L the maximum viable cell number obtained using the CFBC with linear gradient feeding was $9.37{\times}109$ cells/mL and maximum spore concentration was $8.33{\times}109$ spores/mL which was approximately 84.4% yield of spore formation. When the final glucose concentration was 100 g/L the aximum viable cell and spore concentrations obtained using the IFBC with pH-statb were $1.38{\times}$1010 cells/mL and $1.35{\times}1010$ spores/mL respectively and the yield of spore formation was approximately 97.8%.

  • An efficient system of somatic embryogenesis was established for the red pepper plant (Capsicum annuum L. cv. Nokkwang) usign immature zygotic embryos. The size of the immature zygotic embryos and the concentrations of 2, 4-D and sucrose were found to be critical. Somatic embryos were induced via callus or directly from explants and regenerated into plantlets successfully. When zygotic embryos 1~2 mm long were cultured on the modified Murashige-Skoong (MS) medium supplemented with 2 mg/L 2, 4-D for 3 weeks in the dark, somatic embryos were induced directly from the apical region of zygotic embryos with the highest frequency being approximately 90%. To mature the somatic embryos, ABA and an ethylene inhibitor AgNO3 were used. The highest frequency of shoot regeneration (25% in each) resulted at 2$\mu$M ABA or 20$\mu$M AgNO3 treatment at rates 3.7 and 1.6 times control, respectively. Shoots developed mainly from the cotyledonary node on CoCl2-containing medium, and from the upper side of cotyledon on medium containing AgNO3 while the embryos on the control medium produced shoots from both the cotyledonary node and the upper region of cotyledons both at frequencies of 50%. Indirect somatic embryogenesis via callus was induced at an efficiency of approximately 10% with zygotic embryos 3~4 mm long cultured on MS medium containing 5~10 mg/L, 2, 4-D for 5~7 weeks under a continuous light condition. The plants regenerated from the somatic embryos were morphologically normal. Using scanning electron microscopy, the direct and indirect somatic embryogeneses were observed to follow the globular, heart and torpedo stages, similar to zygotic embryogenesis. Also, suspensors appeared in the early globular and ovoid-shaped late globular embryos during indirect somatic embryogenesis.

  • We present basic data for developing new research topics and closely examine the existing data on the development and organization of the Nakdong River Estuary Delta by analyzing various studies of the area, including ocean engineering, coastal engineering, ocean environmental engineering, geomorphological, and geological studies. We first defined the general concepts related to the estuary and delta and reviewed the historical development of the Nakdong River Estuary Delta over the past 100 years. We then examined the origin and core elements of the estuary deposits that constitute the delta. In addition, we scrutinized the main factors affecting the development of the delta and analyzed existing research on delta development mechanisms by core researchers. The construction of an estuary barrage is one of the main factors effecting estuarine circulation and has altered the physical oceanic environment, area of deposition, atmospheric environment, and vegetation community of the delta. These factors affect the estuary circulation in turn, altering the delta. Along the Nakdong River, an unsteady-state sandy barrier appears at approximately three times the distance of the wavelength of incident offshore waves, and this terrain forms approximately 10-15 years after reclamation in the interdistributary upper stream and transforms the shoreline. It is necessary to develop a technique to predict terrain change that reproduces the erosion and accumulation of estuarine deposits. To determine the parameters and variables necessary to reproduce this system, continuous on-site monitoring is necessary. The existing research did not fully examine the terrain changes in Nakdong River Estuary or the periodic developmental characteristics. To understand the future process of estuary delta development, it is necessary to establish an integrated management system.

  • The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of temperature and salt concentration on the physicochemical properties of salted Chinese cabbage. Salted Chinese cabbage samples were prepared with various concentrations of salt(4, 5, 6 and 7%), and were stored for 10 days at three temperatures(8, 14, and $25^{\circ}C$). The salting ratio of Chinese cabbage evidenced a decreasing trend regardless of the salting temperature and salt concentration, and their decrement appeared relatively high as the salting temperature increased. The period required to achieve a critical salting ratio(85%) decreased with increases in the salt concentration at $25^{\circ}C$, and a similar trend was observed at lower temperatures(8 and $14^{\circ}C$). The salinity of all samples evidenced an increasing trend during the salting period, and at $25^{\circ}C$, in particular, a continuous increment was observed. At salt concentrations of 4%, the critical salinity(2.2%) was not achieved regardless of the temperature and salting period. The pH of salted Chinese cabbage achieved critical pH in 3 days at a salting temperature of $25^{\circ}C$, but the critical pH 5.5 of samples at 8 and $14^{\circ}C$ appeared after a long period of approximately 4 to 10 days. The average hardness values of salted Chinese cabbage at a salting ratio of 85% were approximately 1.49 MPa, 1.87 MPa, and 1.97 MPa, respectively, at three temperatures($25^{\circ}C$, $14^{\circ}C$, and $8^{\circ}C$). The initial reducing sugar content of cabbage juice was 11.8 mg/$m{\ell}$, and this value decreased substantially to 3 to 5 mg/$m{\ell}$ on day 1.

  • The activated sludge obtained from wastewater coke oven plant was immobilized by entrapment with polyethylene glycol (PEG). The effects of several factors on the biodegradation of $CN^-$ from. synthetic wastewater were investigated using batch and continuous reactors. The degradation rate of $CN^-$ increased with increasing of the immobilized bead volume in the reactor. Approximately 7.65mg/L of $NH_4-N$ was produced upon the degradation of 35mg/L of $CN^-$. When high concentrations of the toxic cyanide complex were used in the testing of cyanide degradation, the free activated sludge could be inhibited more than that of the immobilized activated sludge. When the phenol concentration was higher than 400mg/L in the synthetic wastewater, approximately 98.4% of $CN^-$ was removed within 42 hours by the immobilized activated sludge. However, the cyanide was not completely degraded by the tree activated sludge. This indicates that high phenol concentrations can act as a toxic factor for the free activated sludge. A $CN^-$ concentration of less than 1mg/L was achieved by the immobilized sludge at the loading rate of 0.025kg $CN^-/m^3-d$. Moreover, it was found that the HRT should be kept for 48 hours in order to obtain stable treatment conditions.

  • In this paper we propose a hierarchical classification algorithm based on rough membership function which can reason a new object approximately. We use the fuzzy reasoning method that substitutes fuzzy membership value for linguistic uncertainty and reason approximately based on the composition of membership values of conditional sttributes Here we use the rough membership function instead of the fuzzy membership function It can reduce the process that the fuzzy algorithm using fuzzy membership function produces fuzzy rules In addition, we transform the information system to the understandable minimal decision information system In order to do we, study the discretization of continuous valued attributes and propose the discretization algorithm based on the rough membership function and the entropy of the information theory The test shows a good partition that produce the smaller decision system We experimented the IRIS data etc. using our proposed algorithm The experimental results with IRIS data shows 96%~98% rate of classification.

  • In this paper, we proposes a user management system for efficient operation of the combat system within naval ship. Recently, naval ships have seen performance enhancements through various sensors, features, and continuous system development. This progress in the system has led to an increase in multi-funstion consoles that can manipulate various sensors and features within naval ship, consequently increasing the number of operators for these consoles. Therefore, a user management system that can control and manage multi-function consoles and operators in real-time is necessary for efficient management within naval ship. This paper suggests a user management system that can effectively manage the real-time situation of users accessing multi-function consoles. Additionally, a parallelization method using GPUs to reduce the CPU workload in operating various functions of the combat system is proposed. The proposed user management system has shown a performance improvement where the response time decreased by approximately 82% and the occupancy reduced by approximately 20% compared to the method using CPUs.

  • In this paper, the acoustic model output of CSR(Continuous Speech Recognition) was used to analyze news data News database used in this experiment was consisted of 2,093 articles. Due to the low efficiency of language model, conventional Korean CSR is not appropriate to the analysis of news data. This problem could be handled successfully by introducing post-processing work of recognition result of acoustic model. The acoustic model more robust than language model in Korean environment. The result of post-processing work was made into KIF(Keyword information file). When threshold of acoustic model's output level was 100, 86.9% of whole target morpheme was included in post-processing result. At the same condition, applying length information based normalization, 81.25% of whole target morpheme was recognized. The purpose of normalization was to compensate long-length morpheme. According to experiment result, 75.13% of whole target morpheme was recognized KIF(314MB) had been produced from original news data(5,040MB). The decrease rate of absolute information met was approximately 93.8%.
