  • JPEG 2000 is used as an alternative to solve the blocking artifact problem with the existing still image compression JPEG algorithm. However, it has shortcomings such as longer floating point computation time and more complexity in the procedure of enhancing the image compression rate and decompression rate. To compensate for these we implemented with hardware the JPEG 2000 algorithm's filter part which requires a lot of floating point computation. This DWT Filter[1] chip is designed on the basis of Daubechies 9/7 filter[6] and is composed of 3-stage pipeline system to optimize the performance and chip size. Our implemented Filter was 7 times faster than software based Filter in the floating point computation.

  • This study was conducted to understand the influences or satisfaction of mental disease patient's carer about medical service on utilizing hospital, for 202 mental disease patients who are in 19 hospitals from March 2, to 31, 2000 with questionnaire. Factor for understanding satisfaction of patient's carer includes ability of medical professional, view of facility, kindness of steps, convenience of medical procedure, cleanness of environment and convenience of traffic. The data collected were analyzed by SPSS program and the results of this study are summarized as follows; 1. There are not significantly difference bet wren general character and whole satisfaction of patient's carer. 2. Each factor has the positive relation with whole satisfaction of patient's carer about medical service. 3. Whole satisfaction of patient's carer have the significant positive relation with utilizing hospital($\beta$=.527, p=.000), this means that the higher whole satisfaction of patient's carer, the higher their tendance of utilizing hospital. 4. Knowledge for mental disease of patient's carer appear the positive results in view of medical care. In conclusion, the policy has to be developed in order to prevent the stop of utilizing hospital of patient and their carer. But there is a limit to except mental disease patients in this study.

  • This study was conducted to investigate protein and carbohydrate utilization of Micrococcus varians, Staphylococcus carnosus and Staphylococcus xylosus. Sensitivity to pH, sodium chloride, potassium sorbate and sodium nitrite of these strains was also determined. In Chinese-style beaker sausage manufacturing, the growth rate of these strains during the curing period ($20^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) was evaluated. The results indicated that no strains could hydrolyze azo-casein and sarcoplasmic protein and only S. xylosus could hydrolyze gelatin at $30^{\circ}C$. All of these strains could oxidize and ferment fructose and mannitol. S. carnosus and S. xylosus could slightly oxidize lactose and utilize citrate. Arabinose was oxidized by S. xylosus and sorbitol was oxidized by S. carnosus. Growth of M. varians was restricted at pH 5.0 and S. carnosus and S. xylosus were restricted at pH 4.5. S. xylosus and S. carnosus were able to grow with 0.1~0.5% potassium sorbate, 50~200 ppm sodium nitrite or 1~15% sodium chloride. S. xylosus had a higher growth rate than the other strains. Staphylococcus species grew well during curing period of Chinese-style beaker sausage then followed by Micrococcaceae.

  • Two pagurid hermit crabs of the genus Pagurus, P. proximus Komai, 2000 and P. simulans Komai, 2000, were collected from the East Sea of Korea are reported. Brief descriptions and illustrations of these two species are provided. Both have been confounded with P. brachiomastus (Thallwitz, 1891) until recently Komai (2000a) reviewed the taxonomic status of this species complex. Kim's (1973) record of P. brachiomastus from Korea was synonymized to P. proximus by Komai (2000a) and the latter in Korean waters is confirmed through this study. P. simulans is recorded for the first time from Korea as well as the East Sea (Sea of Japan).

  • Single cell of an indigenous phototrophic bacterium, Rhodovulum sulfidophilum, was incorporated in commercial fish feed for Oreochromis niloticus. The bacterial cell was analyzed for nutritional value and tested for toxicity and acceptability as an aquaculture feed supplement. The results showed higher survival rate and significantly higher growth rate (p<0.001) in O. niloticus fed with the bacteria incorporated fish feed. It is suggested that R sulfidophilum can be utilized as an aquaculture feed supplement.
