본 논문에서는 굴절(refractive) 물체의 광학적 현상들을 실시간으로 표현하는 GPU(Graphics Processing Unit) 기반 렌 더링 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 일반적으로 굴절 물체에 대한 광학적 현상들을 렌더링할 때 포톤 매핑(Photon Mapping) 이 널리 쓰이지만, 포톤 매핑 방법은 계산량이 많기 때문에 게임 등과 같은 실시간 응용분야에는 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 굴절 물체의 앞면, 뒷면의 깊이값의 차이와 굴절 레이(ray)를 이용해 탈출지점을 구하며, 탈출지점의 법선 벡터를 근사하여 빛이 굴절 물체를 통과하면서 발생하는 커스틱스(caustics)현상과 굴절현상을 렌더링한다. 굴절 물체의 반사(reflection) 현상은 프레넬 항(Fresnel term)을 근사(approximation)해서 효율적으로 표현하였다. 또한 HDRI(High Dynamic Range Image)로 환경맵을 구성하여 자연광이 굴절 물체를 통해 굴절되어 보이는 현상을 생성하였다.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biological characteristic of deproteinized freeze dried bovine bone(DFDBB) through grafting to maxillary sinus as following time lapsed. Nine patients who were needed of sinus elevation procedure because of severe resorption of maxillary edentulous alveolar bone were selected. patients were divided into three group. Firstly sinus lifting procedure was performed and then the implantation procedure was performed after 6 months in first group, 12 months in second group and 18 months in third group and simutaneously tissues of sinus were obtained by trephine. 18 sections are made from every obtained tissue. 9 sections were stained by Masson's trichrome method and were taken a photo at 100 times of magnification. Relative area of newly formed bone were obtained by IPTK(image processing tool kit) version 5.0 program and mean values and standard deviations were produced from obtained data by using SPSS version 17 program and significance tests were conducted by ANOVA method. This study revealed that DFDBB stimulated new bone formation in maxillary sinus and did not have osteoinductive capacity but osteoconductive capacity, and DFDBB was exceedingly slowly resorbed.
시판되는 효소형 TTI를 이용하여 다양한 온도에서 보관 중인 간 쇠고기의 부패 확인이 가능한지 조사하였다. 쇠고기의 부패 확인 지표로는 volatile basic nitrogen(VBN)을 이용하였다. 실험 온도 4, 10, 15, 20 및 25oC에서 쇠고기가 부패하는데 소요된 시간은 각각 168, 114, 60, 48 및 24시간이었다. 상기 조건에서 쇠고기의 품질변화는 본 실험에 사용한 3 종류의 C-type TTI(C-1, C-4, 및 C-7)의 반응 종말점들과 일치하지 않았다. TTI의 반응을 쇠고기의 품질변화에 일치시키기 위해 C-1 TTI로부터 효소와 기질 성분을 추출하여 Eppendorf tube에서 서로 다른 양으로 혼합하여 변형된 TTI를 구성하였다. 변형된 CM-1 TTI의 반응은 20oC와 25oC에서 쇠고기의 품질변화와 매우 유사하였으나 다른 온도에서는 일치하지 않았다. 변형된 CM-2 TTI의 반응은 15oC에서만 쇠고기의 품질변화와 일치하였다. 따라서 TTI를 특정한 식품의 품질변화 지시계로 사용하기 위해서는 식품의 부패와 TTI 반응에 대한 체계적인 kinetics 연구들이 필요할 것으로 보인다.
Sperm chromatin integrity is essential for successful fertilization and development of an embryo. Reported here is a quantification of DNA fragments which is intimately associated with reproductive potential to provide one of criteria for sperm chromatin integrity. Three sperm populations were considered: CONTROL (no treatment), UV irradiation (48mW/, 1h) and (oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide, 10 mM, 50 mM and 100 mM). DNA fragments in boar sperm were evaluated by using ligation-mediated quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (LM-qPCR) assay, which relies on real-time qPCR to provide a measure of blunt 5' phosphorylated double strand breaks in genomic DNA. The results in agarose gel electrophoresis showed no significant DNA fragmentation and no dose-dependent response to . However, the remarkable difference in shape and position was observed in melting curve of LM-qPCR. This result supported that the melting curve analysis of LM-qPCR presented here, could be more sensitive and accurate than previous DNA fragmentation assay method.
The purpose of this study was to compare the awareness of dietary patterns and health of full-time and employed housewives. The investigation gathered information on general characteristics, dietary lifestyle, nutritional status, and health by questionnaire as well as anthropometric measurements. The subjects included housewives living in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province (86 full-time and 127 working housewives) during November 2009 to January 2010. The average age, height, and weight of the housewives were 45.8±7.6 yr, 161.0±8.4 cm, and 55.7±6.3 kg, respectively. The average monthly income of the households was 3 million to 5 million won (31.4% full-time and 37.0% working housewives), and their average food expense was 200,000 to 500,000 won (46.5% full-time and 48.1% working housewives). More than 90% of the studied homes were nuclear families and the most common number of children was 2 to 3 (79.1% full-time and 76.4% working housewives). The ratio of employed housewives who ate regular meals was 35.4%, but that of the full-time housewives was 48.2% (p〈0.05). Of the working housewives, 7.1% never ate breakfast and the primary reason for skipping breakfast was 'busy in the morning' (61.1%). The type of food that the housewives preferred when eating out was Korean food, both for the full-time and employed housewives (76.0%). All the housewives overate calories and the full-time housewives ate more protein, fat, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B6, niacin, vitamin C, vitamin E, folic acid, and cholesterol than the employed housewives (p〈0.05). Both the full-time and employed housewives were more satisfied with supper than with other meals. About 30.6% of the full-time and 33.9% of the working housewives had no interest in health, but answered that regular exercise was very important for health (33.3% full-time and 39.7% working housewives). In conclusion, working housewives have poor dietary habits and nutrient intakes, thus substantial measures to improve these problems are urgently needed.

시계열데이터는 ARMA 분석에 적합지 않은 요소를 내재하고 있는 경우가 있다. 특히 선형성과 주기성을 가진 요소가 확률적인 분포와 자주 혼재 되어 있다. 이 논문에서는 이런 선형적 주기적 요소를 찾아내고 분석하는 방법을 제시한다. 특히 주기적 요소는 여러 주기가 층층이 겹쳐져서 나타난다, 주기 간에 는 서로 일정 정수비율을 유지하며 , 한 주기 안에 다른 주기가 내 포되어 있는 경우(nested periods)가 많다. 시간규모(time-scale) 개
게임 활동 중에 많은 게임 유저들이 게임 플레이 시간에 대한 왜곡을 경험한다. 이러한 현상에 대해 주로 몰입 또는 중독의 관점에서 연구되었는데, 이러한 연구들도 이러한 현상이 일어나는 이유나 이와 관련된 게임 유저들의 심리적 경험이 무엇인지를 밝히는 데는 많은 한계가 있었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 게임의 재미 요소가 게임 시간 에 대한 왜곡과 어떠한 관련이 있는지를 탐색해 보았다. 그 결과, 게임의 물리적 재미 요소와 하루 평균 게임 플레이 시간은 시간 왜곡과 크게 관련이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 게임을 통한 심리적 재미 경험과 게임 경력은 시간 왜곡 현상을 설명하는 주요 요소인 것으로 확인되었다. 즉 게임 경력이 오래될수록, 게임을 통해 얻는 심리 적 재미 경험이 클수록 실제 게임 플레이 시간에 비해 게임 유저들이 느끼는 주관적인 체감 시간이 짧아지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 게임 유저들이 게임 활동 중 흔히 경험하는 게임 플레이 시간에 대한 왜곡 현상의 원 인을 탐색하였다는데 그 의의가 있다. 추후 연구에서는 게임 유저들의 물리적, 심리적 재미 경험의 속성을 보다 구체적으로 탐색하여 연구가 이루어질 필요성이 있다.
To survive head-to-head competition, we should keep our labor productivities above those of other nations. However, our labor productivities are low compared to those of the developed countries. It is the well-known fact that we make up for the productivi

There has been a huge progress in semiconductor manufacturing processes such as reduction of the design rule(DR) and development of multi-processes. And, semiconductor industries have steadily extended its business and market share by reducing the design rule(DR) and enlarging the wafer size as well as by resolving many difficult technical problems through various noble approaches in order to reduce the production cost and to improve the yield. In semiconductor manufacturing, there is a significant difference in the number of memory chips produced according to the wafer size, wafer yield, and the level of the design rule even though the same number of wafers were put to the manufacturing process. So, almost all semiconductor manufacturing companies reach the conclusion that the enlarged size of wafer should be adopted in order to enhance the productivity and reduce the production cost. Thus, in this study, we investigate the specifications of the key functions and capabilities of the necessary modules in the yield analysis and improvement system required to acquire the stationary wafer yield with considering the 450mm wafer manufacturing system. Then the results of this research will be helpful for constructing the advanced yield analysis and improvement system called Real-Time Fault Monitoring and Detection (RTFMD) system.
In 450mm wafers production environment for next-generation semiconductor production, one of the most significant features is the adoption of full automation to the whole manufacturing processes involved. The full automation system applied to the whole manufacturing processes will prevent the workers from intervening the manufacturing processes as much as possible and increase the importance of each individual wafer noticeably, and thus require a more robust scheduling system for entire semiconductor manufacturing processes. The scheduling system for 450mm wafers production also should be capable of monitoring the status of each individual wafer and collecting useful fab data in real time. Based on data (or information) gathered in each process, the real-time scheduling system function efficiently to control the whole semiconductor manufacturing processes. In this study, we first carry out preliminary survey on the system requirements and the necessary functions for constructing the real time scheduling system with considering the changes from 300mm wafer production environment to 450mm wafer production environment, and then propose the scheduler system architectures for the cluster-type production processes which are the general in 450mm wafer production environment for the efficient production scheduling. The system architectures proposed in this study involve the modules for real-time scheduling, the modules for supporting the cluster-type production, the modules for finding optimal schedules, and so on. Also, we provide the specifications of the key required functions and capabilities of the modules and the relationship among the modules proposed.
Bacillus thuringiensis (B. t.) strains are important microorganism because they produced a large amount of δ-endotoxin protein per bacterial cell and their toxins are highly toxic to Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, and Diptera depending on B. t. To date, more than a hundred Cry proteins have been identified and classified into 195 holotypes, based on the amino acid sequence identity. The Cry proteins or cry genes from the Korean native B. t. isolates in this study were not identified yet. The electrospray ionization of quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry (ESI Q-TOF MS) was used to get the internal amino acid sequences of the endotoxin-spore culture mixtures of B. t. isolates, for which polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques were unable to detect the cognate genes. Most of Cry proteins seperated, excized, and extracted from the one dimensional - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1D-PAGE), instead of 2D-PAGE, were matched with protein databases using MS-MASCOT search program. The internal amino acid sequences which were submitted to protein BLAST (basic local alignment search tool) had partially homology with the Cry protein databases. Hence, present data strongly suggest that the de novo amino acid sequencing and ESI Q-TOF/MS analysis along with MASCOT search could be used as a simple and rapid method for detection of novel Cry toxins from B. t. isolates and identification of B. t. isolates.
The legume pod borer, Maruca vitrata (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) causes serious damage to some legume crops of genus Vigna and Sesbania in Korea. In the current study, laboratory studies on the temperature-dependent development of the insect were performed at 8 constant temperatures ranging from 13℃ to 34℃ at 3℃ intervals. Lower developmental threshold (LDT) for eggs, larvae, and pupae were calculated as 10.0, 12.5 and 13.3℃, respectively, using the linear-regression equations of the developmental rates. Degree-days required to complete a stage were estimated as 48, 187, and 94, for egg, larval, and pupal stages, respectively. The larvae couldn't survive at 13 and 16℃, and the larval survival rate was the highest at 28℃. The egg hatching rate was the lowest at 13℃. In the adult stage, the pre-oviposition period was the shortest at 22℃, and the total egg number was the most with ca. 500 at 25℃. Degree-days for the stages of 1st-4th larval instars, egg, and adult emergence-50% oviposition were calculated during the reproductive development season of red bean using single sine method and Suwon weather station data based on LDTs, respectively. Finally, the adult occurrence time was estimated after the degree-days were cumulated reversely from the distribution data of larval stages observed in a red bean field
