Criticality experiments with fixed neutron poison plates for water moderated and reflected low enriched(2.35 and 4.31 wt%) UO$_2$fuel rod clusters were evaluated to validate calculation techniques employed in analyzing fuel shipping and storage systems having steel, boral, or cadmium shield. Measurements were obtained for both the 2.35 wt% and the 4.31 wt% enriched rods in square pitched, water flooded lattices. The critical experiments with the 2.35 wt% enriched rods consists of three 20$\chi$ 16 or 20$\chi$ 17 fuel cluster. Critical separation were used in the experiments with the 4.31 wt% enriched fuel rods. In the experiments, the poison plates were placed on both sides of the centrally located fuel cluster. Critical separation between the three sub-critical fuel clusters were then measured for varying plate thicknesses and distances of the plates to the center fuel cluster. Calculations were performed for thirty eight critical configuration using KENO-V. a and MCNP. All of the results were within 1.23% in $\Delta$k when individually compared with the critical value of 1.0. Discrepancies of the code results are probably due to uncertainties in experiments and/or analytical modeling experiments. In general, MCNP predictions were observed to be in best agreement with the experiments.

The present research program was conducted to characterize a strain of actinomycetes producing an anti methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) antibiotic. Soil samples were collected from various sites in Korea and a number of actinomycetes were isolated from the soil samples by applying selective agar for actinomycetes. Among over 400 isolates, a strain (AMLK-135) producing anti-MRSA antibiotic against S. aureus TK 784 was selected. According to the morphological and physiological characteristics, the strain AMLK-135 was confirmed to belong to the genus Streptomyces. From the results of species identification with the TAXON program, the strain AMLK-135 was shown to belong to major cluster 5 (Streptomyces exfoliatus), but it had a low simple matching coefficient ($S_{SM}$ SM/) value to member organisms of major cluster 5. Percentage ($\%$) of strain further away of the strain AMLK-135 was low (1.9400) and it was placed further away than the outer-most members in major cluster 5. Therefore, the strain AMLK-135 was identified as a new species of the genus Streptomyces.

A 2 Gbit/s visible-light communication (VLC) scheme using time-frequency color-clustered (TFCC) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) based on blue, cyan, yellow, and red (BCYR) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is presented. In the proposed scheme, BCYR LEDs are employed to form four different color clusters. Data transmission using the four color clusters is performed in MIMO, so that the scheme achieves a very high speed of data transmission. Moreover, the scheme employs the TFCC strategy to yield high performance in terms of bit error rate (BER). TFCC operates in such a way that the original data and the two delayed versions of the data are multiplied by orthogonal frequencies and then transmitted using a specific color of the BCYR LED. In the receiver, color filters are employed to detect the data transmitted from the desired cluster. Selection combining (SC) is also performed to yield a diversity effect within each color cluster, to further improve the performance. Performance evaluation demonstrates that the proposed TFCC MIMO VLC offers a data rate of 2 Gbit/s and a bit error rate of 4×10^-5, at an E_b/N_o value of merely 3 dB.

We present UBV I photometry of the old open cluster NGC 1193. Color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of this cluster show a well defined main sequence and a sparse red giant branch. For the inner region of r < 50", three blue straggler candidates are newly found in addition to the objects Kaluzny (1988) already found. The color-color diagrams show that the reddening value toward NGC 1193 is E(B - V ) = $0.19{\pm}0.04$. From the ultraviolet excess measurement, we derived the metallicity to be [Fe/H]= $-0.45{\pm}0.12$. A distance modulus of ${(m\;-\;M)}_0$ = $13.3{\pm}0.15$ is obtained from zero age main sequence fitting with the empirically calibrated Hyades isochrone of Pinsonneault et al. (2004). CMD comparison with the Padova isochrones by Bertelli et al. (1994) gives an age of log t = $9.7{\pm}0.1$.

The purpose of this study is for providing a strategic plan of waterfront belt development at the coastal area of Busan city that might enhance the possibility on healthy use of spare time of the residents and demand of tourism, together with raising the potential and the value added effect of coastal space. This study is one of a series of studies for developing waterfront belt at Busan coastal area. In this study we suggest the new concepts of waterfront belt, waterfront cluster and waterfront greenway. And then we present a model of making waterfront belt through waterfront cluster, which is an aggregate of individual waterfront spaces, using waterfront greenway. After that we apply this model to Haeundae coastal area and test the applicability of the model.

Since the sensors of Internet of Things (IOT) collect various data, the lifetime of sensor network is very important and the data should be aggregated efficiently. The contiguous collection by the certain sensors occurs an excessive battery consumption and successive transmission of same value of data should be avoided. To solve these things, we propose an weight-based cluster head replacement method that divides whole network into several grids and cluster head is selected by remaining energy, density of alive sensors and location of sensor. The aim of algorithm maximizes the lifetime of network. Our simulation results shows that the proposed method is very simple as well as balances energy consumption.

A companion animal is a pet which lives and shares emotions with a person. The global pet industry economy has grown in recent times due to increased awareness of companion animals. In Korea, it grew from 800 million US dollars in 2012 to 2 billion US dollars in 2016, about 2.5-fold growth in five years. Within the pet industry, the pet food market occupies the largest market share having a value greater than 70 billion US dollars globally. In China, the average annual growth rate of the pet food industry is estimated at about 30%, and the market size is expected to reach 18 billion US dollars by 2020. The companion food market has potential to be the fastest growing and most viable food market in the future and would be a strategic employment avenue within the food industry. This report articulates the necessity for product development and institutional improvement of companion animal.

The purposes of this study were to investigate influences of consumer's shopping value, brand alliances and apparel product involvement on purchasing behavior. The subjects of 172 hedonic shopping value and 208 utilitarian shopping value were chosen to participated for data collection. The data was analyzed by factor analysis, cluster analysis, and ANOVA. The main results of study were summarized as follows: 1. When an Internet Private Brand(PB) did not form brand alliance with a National brand(NB), utilitarian shopping value consumers did not differ in preference irrespective of whether product involvement was high or not. However, when the PB formed brand alliance with well-known NB, they showed higher preference for the high involvement apparel product than the low involvement product. 2. When an Internet PB did not form brand alliance with well-known NB, the utilitarian shopping value consumers' word-of-mouth intention did not differ between the high involvement apparel product and low involvement apparel product. 3. It was revealed that when an Internet PB did not form brand alliance, the utilitarian shopping value consumers showed higher intention to purchase than that of the low involvement product.
