Neutron room scattering corrections that should be made when neutron detectors are calibrated with a $D_2O$ moderated $^{252}Cf$ neutron source in the center of a calibration room are considered. Such room scattering corrections are dependent on specific neutron source type, detector type, calibration distance, and calibration room configuration. Room scattering corrections for the responses of a thermoluminescence dosimeter and two different types of spherical detectors to neutron source in the Radiation Calibration Laboratory(RCL) neutron calibration facility at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute(KAERI) were experimentally determined and are presented. The measured room scattering results are then compared with theoretical results calculated by predicting room scattering effects in terms of parameters related to the specific configuration. Agreement between measured and calculated scattering correction is generally about 10% for three kinds of detectors in the calibration facility.

In this study, it was analyzed that, the way of securing publicity and privacy in family and type of public space of the Japanese contemporary detached house, by the composition type of family from one person home to four generation family home. Mostly the living room is made as open plan of LDK type. Mostly, the entrance hall is separate with living room. Even if the case of the entrance hall is connected with living room, it is planned to be recognized as entrance hall, by making entrance poach or connecting it with stair hall. In many case, the public space is designed as traditional Japanese style, such as wellhole style space (吹拔け), courtyard, and Japanese style room (和室). The Japanese style room is adjacent to living room, and used as the space of receiving guests. The wellhole style space and courtyard are recognized as the center of the house, and used as buffer space for ensuring privacy of each generation. The most different point between bachelor house and multi generation family house is another LDK space, living room or kitchen for parents' generation is made separately. Particularly there are many case of making separate small kitchen space, therefore it can be known that, the separation of kitchen space is recognized more importantly than that of living room. And there are many case of making separate entrance hall, two houses under one roof. The spatial composition like this can said as rational method of ensuring the privacy of each generation, and using the public space together as necessary.

This study was conducted to know the quality of chou made with flour pastes which were stored at different conditions of quick freezing, slow freezing, cold and room temperature. Also, this study included investigation of the chou properties such as expansion, sensory evaluation, degree of gelatinization, and physical and structural properties of paste were observed. There were not significant differences m diameter, height, volume, appearance, hollow formation, and sensory evaluation between the chou made with the paste stored at freezing condition and chou directly baked after pasting. Quick and slow freezing storages did not significantly affect the properties of chou, and the same results were obtained among the chou made with pastes thawed at room temperature and in microwave ovenrange. The chou of pastes stored at room temperature and in microwave ovenrange. The chou of pastes stored at room temperature and stored in refrigerator showed lowed expansion and value of sensory evaluation than those of frozen pastes. The paste stored at room temperature had the lowest hardness and viscosity compared with the other storage conditions. According to the observation of light microscope. the lipid bodies of the paste of freezing storage smaller those of the room temperature and refrigerator storage. The expantion of chou made with paste stored at room temperature was greatly decreased due to the high coalescence of lipid bodies, and also the paste components such as lipid, starch granule gluten at room temperature had inferior dispersion condition. The general tendency of the degree of gelatinization of chou were low in all treatments of paste. The values were 23.5%~46.0% in freezing, 77.3% in room temperature, 68.7% in directly baked after pasting, and 61.0% in cold storage, respectively. The formation and the taste of chou made with frozen paste were similar to those of chou directly baked pasting.

The purpose of this study was to investigate spatial characteristics and using behavior of activity room in skilled nursing facilities for the elderly and to provide basic guidelines about its space planning. The activity rooms in the most of the research facilities were arranged by usage modification of unnecessary spaces after the foundation of the facility, and were used not only for the program service but for the staff lounge. It decreased space speciality and resulted in limited area of the space and crowded furniture arrangement. The design guidelines for activity room were as follows. First, the space plan of activity room is based on the use of once to twice per week and for 30 minutes per use, and is mainly for the human knowledge and art programs that are appropriate for small group. Second, the activity room of the facility with less than 3 stories needs to be in the same floor as elderly individual room, but should be independent and easy to be controlled by the staff. On the other hand, in more than 4 stories facility, it is better to be in the different floor as the elderly living area such as administrational area close to the lounge and garden. Third, at least $5.9m^{2}$ per user for the area of the activity room is recommended including the elderly, staff, furniture, equipments and restroom. Fourth, the furniture of activity room includes the shelves, big table with enough knee space, wheel, and stopper, and stackable chairs. Toilets and water closet are needed for the emergency, and the windows to the corridor and curtain door should be avoided for soundproof and easy access of wheelchair users.

This paper proposes a prefetch-based disk buffer management algorithm, which we call W2R (Veighingjwaiting Room). Instead of using elaborate prefetching schemes to decide which blockto prefetch and when, we simply follow the LRU-OBL (One Block Lookahead) approach and prefetchthe logical next block along with the block that is being referenced. The basic difference is that theW2R algorithm logically partitions the buffer into two rooms, namely, the Weighing Room and theWaiting Room. The referenced, hence fetched block is placed in the Weighing Room, while theprefetched logical next block is placed in the Waiting Room. By so doing, we alleviate some inherentdeficiencies of blindly prefetching the logical next block of a referenced block. Specifically, a prefetchedblock that is never used may replace a possibly valuable block and a prefetched block, thoughreferenced in the future, may replace a block that is used earlier than itself. We show through tracedriven simulation that for the workloads and the environments considered the W2R algorithm improvesthe hit rate by a maximum of 23.19 percentage points compared to the 2Q algorithm and a maximumof 10,25 percentage feints compared to the LRU-OBL algorithm.

This study intends to provide a model for the establishment of a rehabilitation room for the safety and rehabilitation of firefighters by proposing a basis for the establishment of a firefighter rehabilitation room at disaster sites. To achieve the research objectives, a questionnaire, frequency analysis, and variance analysis were conducted to assess the effectiveness of rehabilitation rooms for firefighters. Based on the results of the research, the policy suggestions for operating an effective rehabilitation room are as follows. An organization of the operation of the rehabilitation room should be established at each firefighting headquarters, and human resources must be secured for the operation of the rehabilitation room. In addition, detailed operating standards such as the operation contents of the rehabilitation room's operation manager and its operator, as well as its operation procedures should be prepared. Additionally, training to improve the rehabilitation room and its understanding is needed.

Purpose: To decrease cross-infection, it's essential to analyze the spatial composition of the 'PPE doffing area'. Instead of solely relying on manpower standards, we should focus on responding to infectious diseases within the context of space planning. By doing so, we can lower the risk for healthcare workers' infection and ensure a level of safety in various environmental changes or new manpower input situations. Methods: This analysis is conducted specifically for facilities with negative pressure isolation wards. Additionally, interview surveys to obtain feedback from healthcare workers and incorporate their expertise into the design of the 'PPE doffing area' have been carried. Results: In a PPE doffing area, the standard spaces include a PPE doffing room, a shower room, and a clothing room. Depending on the facility environment or the level of infectious diseases, a Decontamination room or Anteroom can be optionally added. Healthcare workers who remove their PPE in the PPE doffing room should avoid re-entering the Negative pressure room. The shower room is often underutilized. When planning for a future PPE doffing area, an aisle space or passageway must be included even if a shower room is planned. Implications: This study examined the space used by healthcare workers rather than patients, with a focus on infection prevention through architectural planning rather than individual efforts. However, the investigation was limited to facilities that have been converted from general wards to negative pressure isolation wards, so it cannot be generalized to all infectious disease facilities.

Purpose: Seclusion room in a psychiatric facility limit the body and space for treatment or protection, so controversy over human rights violations arises despite their necessity. The seclusion room should be created as an environment that can promote the recovery and healing of patients, not the purpose of managing patients. while ensuring the safety of medical staff. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the standards of overseas guidelines for the seclusion room in psychiatric facility, and through this, it is intended to contribute to the improvement of facility standards for seclusion rooms in Korea, which are at a very insufficient level. Method: This study takes the method of comparative analysis through literature review. We analyze the facility standards of seclusion room in Korea, and compare and analyze guidelines for seclusion rooms in Australia, US, UK, and Canada. Result: As a result, the elements of the guideline for seclusion room were classified into size, space, opening, furniture and equipment, and etc. The results of comparative analysis of details are presented. Implications: Korea should also prepare guidelines for psychiatric institutions, and among them, the standards for seclusion room, which are at the center of controversy over human rights violations, should be reviewed in depth.

Human tend to rely their information about the size of a space on vision. However, it might be a common experience to perceive a certain difference in spaces without any visual difference, in such spaces as rooms for music performance, multimedia environments with multiple sound sources, and car cabins, where auditory experiences have a certain importance. In the present work, apparent auditory room size was measured at different positions in a room through a series of listening experiments. Also, measurement of room acoustic parameters was carried out and their relationships with perceived auditory room size were analyzed. The results suggest that apparent auditory room sizes were largely dependent on musical clarity, distance between a source and a receiver, and sound pressure level at the listening position. Also, the results from acoustic preference test suggest that smaller apparent room sizes were preferred for listening to orchestral, cello and flute music. The relationship between apparent auditory room size and vocal music was found to be statistically insignificant.

This study aims to design and develop AirDeep-Room, a multi-sensor system for monitoring air quality in various indoor environments. The system measures CO2, TVOC, particulate matter, temperature, and humidity in real-time. By integrating multiple sensors, AirDeep-Room allows convenient correlation analysis using low data format in real-time. The sensor system was installed in a server room and a classroom. Data analysis showed a negative correlation of -0.24 between temperature and humidity in the server room, and a positive correlation of 0.43 in the classroom, indicating different interactions. A high correlation (r=0.69) between the number of students and concentrations of CO2 and TVOC demonstrated the significant impact of occupancy on air quality. AirDeep-Room effectively manages air quality across various environments and provides essential data for improving air quality in densely populated areas.
