Cellular automata (CA) have been applied to effective cryptographic system design. CA is superior in randomness to LFSR due to the fact that its state is updated simultaneously by local interaction. To apply these CAs to the cryptosystem, a study has been performed how to synthesize CA corresponding to given polynomials. In this paper, we analyze the recurrence relations of the characteristic polynomial of the 90 UCA and the characteristic polynomial of the 90/150 CA whose transition rule is <$00{\cdots}001$>. And we synthesize the 90/150 CA corresponding to the trinomials $x^{2^n}+x+1(n{\geq}2)$ satisfying f(x)=f(x+1) using the 90 UCA transition rule blocks and the special transition rule block. We also analyze the properties of the irreducible factors of trinomials $x^{2^n}+x+1$ and propose a 90/150 CA synthesis algorithm corresponding to $x^{2^n}+x^{2^m}+1(n{\geq}2,n-m{\geq}2)$.

The purpose of this study is to systematically analyze the results of the existing research on mathematical beliefs, compare and synthesize the valuable results and to suggest implications for mathematical beliefs and research. As a result of checking the methodological quality of 59 articles in total using the MQA(Methodological Quality Assessment) checklist, most of them surveyed mathematical beliefs using questionnaires, and most of the studies were conducted on prospective teachers. As a result of systematic review, the conceptual characteristics of mathematical beliefs, object-specific characteristics, and the educational influence of mathematical beliefs were able to synthesize the meaning. Mathematical beliefs had important educational influences in the practice of teachers, students, and math classes. As the results of the study, we emphasize the importance of changing the beliefs of students and teachers in order to solve the problem of mathematical education, where students rely on private education rather than activity thinking, and teachers do not pay attention to students thinking. It has been shown that concrete support is needed for practicing participatory instruction focused on mathematical thinking.

Graphene has attracted significant attention due to its unique characteristics and promising nanoelectronic device applications. For practical device applications, it is essential to synthesize high-quality and large-area graphene films. Graphene has been synthesized by eloborated mechanical exfoliation of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite, chemical reduction of exfoliated grahene oxide, thermal decomposition of silicon carbide, and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on metal substrates such as Ni, Cu, Ru etc. The CVD has advantages over some of other methods in terms of mass production on large-areas substrates and it can be easily separated from the metal substrate and transferred to other desired substrates. Especially, plasma-enhanced CVD (PECVD) can be very efficient to synthesize high-quality graphene. Little information is available on the synthesis of graphene by PECVD even though PECVD has been demonstrated to be successful in synthesizing various carbon nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes and nanosheets. In this study, we synthesized graphene on $Ni/SiO_2/Si$ and Cu plate substrates with CH4 diluted in $Ar/H_2$ (10%) by using an inductively-coupled PECVD (ICPCVD). High-quality graphene was synthesized at as low as $700^{\circ}C$ with 600 W of plasma power while graphene layer was not formed without plasma. The growth rate of graphene was so fast that graphene films fully covered on substrate surface just for few seconds $CH_4$ gas supply. The transferred graphene films on glass substrates has a transmittance at 550 nm is higher 94%, indicating 1~3 monolayers of graphene were formed. FETs based on the grapheme films transferred to $Si/SiO_2$ substrates revealed a p-type. We will further discuss the synthesis of graphene and doped graphene by ICPVCD and their characteristics.

In this paper, we introduce a method to synthesize realistic make-up effects on input images efficiently. In particular, we focus on shading on the make-up effects due to the lighting and face curvature. By doing this, we can synthesize a wider range of effects realistically than the previous methods. To do this, the information about lighting information together with the normal vectors on all pixels over the face region in the input image. Since the previous methods that compute lighting information and normal vectors require relatively heavy computation cost, we introduce an approach to approximate lighting information using cascade pose regression process and normal vectors by transforming, rendering, and warping a standard 3D face model. The proposed method consumes much less computation time than the previous methods. In our experiment, we show the proposed approximation technique can produce naturally looking virtual make-up effects.

In this paper, trends on technology of metal and ceramic nanoparticle inks using eco-friendly process were reviewed. There are two types of eco-friendly processes, dry and wet. In case of dry process, gas evaporation process was being used to synthesize the ultrafine nanoparticles. Also, in case of wet process, low temperature process excluding harmful elements such as $Cl^-$ and ${NO_3}^-$ was being used to synthesize the ultrafine nanoparticles. Sizes of nanoparticles were less than 10 nm using the eco-friendly processes, and the nanoparticles were well dispersed into ink solvent. The ink was successfully applied to fabricate directly printed pattern.

This paper describes a new method to eliminate some selected harmonics (5,7,11) in PWM waveforms using Walsh and related orthogonal functions. Previous analyses of PWM waveforms are based on the nonlinear equations requiring iterative solution methods which are not practical in real-time systems. In addition, synthesis of low harmonics waveform at high power system is not easy to implement with power electronic hardware. The goal of this paper is to achieve the harmonics elimination in a PWM waveform by replacing the nonlinear equations in Fourier analysis with linear algebraic equations resulting from the use of orthogonal Walsh equation. This paper also describes how to synthesize low ordered harmonic waveforms with practical power electronic hardware. Walsh and Radmacher functions are easily manipulated by Harmuth's array generator, and those algorithms are accurate, computationally efficient and faster than algorithm based on Fourier analysis. In addition, this method is simulated to synthesize periodic PWM waveforms. From the experi-mental results, it is shown that single-phase PWM waveform are identified with the proposed method. And these methods are also extended to three-phase PWM waveforms in this paper.

The conventional acoustic sounds can be synthesized by Frequency Modulation which includes the variation of frequency, amplitude, and modulation index. In this paper the number of variable synthesis parameters are limited to easily implement the existing two carrier FM algorithm by hardware. The DSP(Digital Signal Processor), which is able to carry out the modified algorithm and synthesize 16 sounds at a time, is designed with $0.8{\mu}m$ standard sells. The DSP which can synthesize 2 sounds at a time is implemented by ASIC emulator to examine the sound quality of the designed DSP. Through the objective and subjective estimation, it is confirmed that the sounds of many instruments from the implemented DSP are very closed to their real sound. Finally the designed DSP is layouted and simulated by VLSI desgn tool. According to the simulation, the designed DSP has the sufficiently fast speed for synthesizing 16 sounds at a time.

Recycling process involving mechanical, thermal, hydrometallurgical, and sol-gel step has been applied to recover cobalt and lithium from spent lithium ion batteries and to synthesize LiCoO$_2$from leach liquor as cathodic active materials. Electrode materials containing lithium and cobalt could be concentrated with 2-step thermal and mechanical treatment. Leaching behaviors of the lithium and cobalt in nitric acid media was investigated in terms of reaction variables. Hydrogen peroxide in 1 M HNO$_3$solution turned out to be an effective reducing agent by enhancing the leaching efficiency. O f many possible processes to produce LiCoO$_2$, the amorphous citrate precursor process (ACP) has been applied to synthesize powders with a large specific surface area and an exact stoichiometry. After leaching used LiCoO$_2$with nitric acid, the molar ratio of Li/Co in the leach liquor was adjusted at 1.1 by adding a fresh LiNO$_3$solution. Then, 1 M citric acid solution at a 100% stoichiometry was also added to prepare a gelatinous precursor. When the precursor was calcined at 95$0^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr, purely crystalline LiCoO$_2$was successfully obtained. The particle size and specific surface area of the resulting crystalline powders were 20 пm and 30 $\textrm{cm}^2$/g, respectively The LiCoO$_2$powder was proved to have good characteristics as cathode active materials in charge/discharge capacity and cyclic performance.

Silicon nanoparticle is a promising material for electronic devices, photovoltaics, and biological applications. Here, we synthesize silicon nanoparticles via $CO_2$ laser pyrolysis and study the hydrogen flow effects on the characteristics of silicon nanoparticles using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometry. In $CO_2$ laser pyrolysis, used to synthesize the silicon nanoparticles, the wavelength of the $CO_2$ laser matches the absorption cross section of silane. Silane absorbs the $CO_2$ laser energy at a wavelength of $10.6{\mu}m$. Therefore, the laser excites silane, dissociating it to Si radical. Finally, nucleation and growth of the Si radicals generates various silicon nanoparticle. In addition, researchers can introduce hydrogen gas into silane to control the characteristics of silicon nanoparticles. Changing the hydrogen flow rate affects the nanoparticle size and crystallinity of silicon nanoparticles. Specifically, a high hydrogen flow rate produces small silicon nanoparticles and induces low crystallinity. We attribute these characteristics to the low density of the Si precursor, high hydrogen passivation probability on the surface of the silicon nanoparticles, and low reaction temperature during the synthesis.

Most, if not all, aphids harbor intracellular bacterial symbionts, called Buchnera, in their bacteriocytes, huge cells differentiated for this purpose. The association between Buchnera and aphids is so intimate, mutualistic and obligate that neither of them can any longer reproduce independently. Buchnera are vertically transmitted through generations of the host insects. Evidence suggests that Buchnera were acquired by a common ancestor of aphids 160-280 million years ago, and have been diversified, since then, in parallel with their aphid hosts. Molecular phylogenetic analyses indicate that Buchnera belong to the g subdivision of the Proteobacteria. Although Buchnera are close relatives of Escherichia coli, they contain move than 100 genomic copies per cell, and their genome size is only one seventh that of E. coli. The complete genome sequence of Buchnera revealed that their gene repertoire is quite different from those of parasitic bacteria such as Mycoplasma, Rickettsia and Chlamydia, though their genome sizes have been reduced to a similar extent. Whereas these parasitic bacteria have lost most genes for the biosynthesis of amino acids, Buchnera retain many of them. In particular, Buchnera's gene repertoire is characteristic in the richness of the genes for the biosynthesis of essential amino acids that the eukaryotic hosts are not able to synthesize, reflecting a nutritional role played by these symbionts. Buchnera, when housed in the bacteriocyte, selectively synthesize a large amount of symbionin, which is a homolog of GroEL, the major stress protein of E. coli. Symbionin not only functions as molecular chaperone, like GroEL, but also has evolutionarily acquired the phosphotransferase activity through amino acid substitutions. Aphids usually profit from Buchnera's fuction as a nutritional supplier and, when faced with an emergency, consume the biomass of Buchnera cells as nutrient reserves.
