The Voight function which results from the convolution of the Gauss and Lorentz function is applied the MAS-NMR simulation of mixed alkali glasses and the glasses doped transition metal oxides. It is well known that the convolution of the Gauss and Lorentz function cannot be integrated in closed form for arbitrary values. So we make the new computer simulation program from which the Voight lineshape is obtained. The results are accorded well with the MAS-NMR spectra and we can find out the very small change of MAS-NMR lineshape.

Multinuclear solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments were performed to investigate the local structure changes of nanoporous silica during hydrothermal treatment and surface modification with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APTES). The nanoporous silica was prepared by sol-gel polymerization using inexpensive sodium silicate as a silica precursor. Using $^1H$ magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra, the hydroxyl groups, which play an important role in surface reactions, were probed. Various silicon sites such as $Q^2$, $Q^3$, $Q^4$, $T^2$, and $T^3$ were identified with $^{29}Si$ cross polarization (CP) MAS NMR spectra and quantified with $^{29}Si$ MAS NMR spectra. The results indicated that about 25% of the silica surface was modified. $^1H$ and $^{29}Si$ NMR data proved that the hydrothermal treatment induced dehydration and dehyroxylation. The $^{13}C$ CP MAS and $^1H$ MAS NMR spectra of 3-APTES attached on the surface of nanoporous silica revealed that the amines of the 3-aminopropyl groups were in the chemical state of ${NH_3}^+$ rather than $NH_2$.

This paper presents a fast parallel algorithm for volume rendering and its implementation using C language and MPI MasPar Programming Language) on the 4,096 processor MasPar MP-2 machine. This parallel algorithm is a parallelization hased on the Lacroute' s sequential shear - warp algorithm currently acknowledged to be the fastest sequential volume rendering algorithm. This algorithm reduces communication overheads by using the sheared space partition scheme and the load balancing technique using load estimates from the previous iteration, and the number of voxels to be processed by using the run-length encoded volume data structure.Actual performance is 3 to 4 frames/second on the human hrain scan dataset of $128\times128\times128$ voxels. Because of the scalability of this algorithm, performance of ]2-16 frames/sc.'cond is expected on the 16,384 processor MasPar MP-2 machine. It is expected that implementation on more current SIMD or MIMD architectures would provide 3O~60 frames/second on large volumes.

In this paper, we set up an implementation plan for the Mail Acceptance System (MAS) to be operated more effectively and intelligently. First of all, an as-is analysis for the current MAS is performed for analyzing issues and problems and obtaining user requirements. After the as-is analysis, we perform benchmarking studies on the various postal service providers of the advanced countries. Based on the results from the as-is analysis and benchmarking study, we design a conceptual model for the future MAS. The proposed conceptual model can be classified into three parts: automatic MAS, business MAS, and integrated MAS. Information and automation technologies are applied to design the proposed model for eliminating inefficiencies and inaccuracies in MAS. We identify implementation tasks for realizing the proposed MAS model, evaluate the importance and precedence relationship of the identified tasks for deciding implementation priorities, and finally set up the implementation plan for the future MAS. We can expect that the more efficient and effective MAS can be constructed in the future by performing the proposed implementation plan.

With the acceleration of globalization and economic integration, multinational enterprises are becoming more and more important in the international market, and Sinar Mas Group, one of the largest integrated companies in Indonesia, has become one of the most influential overseas Chinese companies in Indonesia due to its outstanding performance and leadership position. This study aims to analyze the success factors of Sinar Mas Group and reveal its competitive advantages in the global market. Founded in 1962, Sinar Mas Group is an integrated multinational company headquartered in Indonesia, with significant presence in various fields such as paper, palm oil, real estate, finance and energy, with operations in Indonesia and many other countries and regions around the world. This study investigates the aspects of corporate history, corporate status, and corporate competitiveness. In addition, this study analyzes the reasons for Sinar Mas Group's success using the SWOT model. By comprehensively analyzing these key factors, this paper provides readers with an insight into the vitality and remarkable achievements of this Indonesian corporate giant in the global market. This study will help Korea enter Indonesia and contribute to Indonesian business research.

Spasticity is a motor disorder characterized by a velocity dependent increase in muscle tone with exaggerated tendon jerks, resulting from hyper-excitability of the stretch reflex. The aim of this study is to develop a portable system for quantifying the grade of spasticity which could calculate the biomechanical as well as neurophysiologic parameters, and for determining the relationship between the Tonic Stretch Reflex Threshold (TSRT) and Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS). Eleven patients with stroke participated in the study (6 males and 5 females, the average age of $64.5\pm16.0$ years). As a results, the mean and standard deviation values of the TSRT were $129.8\pm4.2$, $123.4\pm5.2$ and $119.1\pm2.6$ in the MAS 1, MAS 1+ and MAS 2 groups, respectively. Also, there was a negative correlation between the TSRT and MAS (rho=-0.72, p<0.05). This demonstrated that the TSRT could be made clinically available for the more objective and reliable evaluation of the spasticity, instead of using the conventional clinical scales and an isokinetic dynamometer.

In this paper, we have studied the chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) characteristics of mixed abrasive silica slurry(MAS) retreated by adding of manganese oxide(MnO₂) abrasives within 1:10 diluted silica slurry. A slurry designed for optimal performance should produce high removal rates, acceptable polishing selectivity with respect to the underlying layer, low surface defects after polishing, and good slurry stability. The polishing performances of MnO₂ abrasive-added MAS are evaluated with respect to their particle size distribution, surface morphology, and CMP performances such as removal rate and non-uniformity. As an experimental result, we obtained the comparable slurry characteristics compared to original silica slurry in the view-point of high removal rate and low non-uniformity. Therefore, our proposed MnO₂-MAS can be useful to save on the high cost of slurry consumption since we used a 1:10 diluted silica slurry.

In order to ensure second-order multi-agent systems (MAS) realizing consensus more quickly in a limited time, a new protocol is proposed. In this new protocol, the gradient algorithm of the overall cost function is introduced in the original protocol to enhance the connection between adjacent agents and improve the moving speed of each agent in the MAS. Utilizing Lyapunov stability theory, graph theory and homogeneity theory, sufficient conditions and detailed proof for achieving a finite-time consensus of the MAS are given. Finally, MAS with three following agents and one leading agent is simulated. Moreover, the simulation results indicated that this new protocol could make the system more stable, more robust and convergence faster when compared with other protocols.
