This paper are reported a methodology and application for extracting parasitic capacitances in a multi-level interconnect semiconductor structure by a numerical technique. To calculate the parasitic capacitances between the interconnect lines, we employed finite element method (FEM) and calculated the distrubution of electric potential in the inter-metal layer dielecric(ILD) by solving the Laplace equation. The three-dimensional multi-level interconnect structure is generated directly from two-dimensional mask layout data by specifying process sequences and dimension. An exemplary structure comprising two metal lines with a dimension of 8.0$\times$8.0$\times$5.0$\mu\textrm{m}^3/TEX>, which is embedded in three dielectric layer, was simulated to extract the parasitic capacitances. In this calculation, 1960 nodes with 8892 tetrahedra were used in ULTRA SPARC 1 workstation. The total CPU time for the simulation was 28 seconds, while the memory size of 4.4MB was required.

In high-rise buildings, an outrigger system is frequently used as a resisting system for lateral loads. Since the outriggers tie exterior columns and an interior core, exterior columns can participate in the lateral load resisting system and the structural resistance capacity can be increased. However, the outriggers contribute for controlling gravity loads as well as lateral loads. The flows of gravity loads can be changed by the members of outriggers, for the purposes of transferring loads to mega-columns, distributing gravity loads equally among vertical members of columns, walls, or piles, minimizing differential settlements in a foundation system, and so on. In this study, by computational structural analyses of high-rise buildings over 100 floors, the effects of outriggers on controlling gravity loads are analyzed. Analyses for 3-dimensional models with or without outrigger members are performed, and then the gravity load distributions in columns and piles and foundation settlements are analyzed. Also, the effects of outriggers on gravity load controls during construction stages as well as after construction are included.

In this paper, the fluid-structure interaction of large floating structures has been rigorously analyzed and the shear effect on the structural deformation has been investigated in oblique waves. A constant panel method(CPM) based on the Green function method is implemented for computing the hydrodynamic pressure, while a finite element method(FEM) is applied for the structural response based on the Mindlin plate theory with including shear deformation. In order to validate the method, we compared numerical results with experimental ones of Mega Float carried out by Yago & Endo in head waves. General behavior shows good agreement but the local displacement at the ends is slightly different. The numerical results show that the radiation pressure due to the fluid-structure interaction is locally larger than that of wave excitation and mooring devices greatly reduce the response. It is observed that the shear effects among the total deformation constitutes about 4% in the case of Mega Float in oblique waves.

A sedimentation study of the Cheonripo intertidal beach sands and its related coastal dune sands, Cheonripo, Seosan Gun, Choongcheong Namdo, Korea has been carried out based on a series of several summer time field surveys. Each subenvironment in the Cheonripo coastal zone, that is, intertidal sand beach and coastal sand dune, could be differenciated in terms of textural parameters. The coastal dune sands are finer than the intertidal beach sands in mean grain size, and the sorting of dune sands is relatively poorer than that of intertidal beach sands. However, the skewness of intertidal beach and dune sands is commonly positive. Such textural parameters are characteristically differentiated on scatter diagrams. A series of megaripple bedform observations for 6 tidal cycle periods(August 13, 14 and 15, 1990) are interpreted to find out migration pattern of bedforms and its related sand migration. Such migration natures are shown on the tables and figures.

In this study, comparative analysis has been performed with regard to a bending stress and deformation at bottom slab of a concrete floating container terminal by live load distributions. In addition, a structural performance and behavior of the floating structure is considered using a numerical analysis. Through reviewed structural performance of a floating structure by live load distribution, the structure presented tensile behavior by two live load cases (A, B, D-type). Then, the other live load cases (C, E, F, G, H, I, J-type) shows compressive behavior. Especially, immoderately compressive stress was generated on bottom slab at specific load distribution. but, that should be decreased through controling buoyancy pre-flexion. Through reviewed structural behavior, slopes of structure by four live load cases (B, E, F, H-type) were exceeded in design criteria of mega-float. It should be estimated that it get out of the load case at loading container. In all, the present study can be considered as a benchmark of a floating container terminal in the absence of analysis and will be used to guide-line about serviceability of concrete floating container terminal.

The purpose of this study is to explore the network city in detail as a new model for explaining urban growth in the changing economic environment in recent years. For this purpose, starting from Batten's (1995) pioneering work on network city in the mid 1990s to the most recent ones, literature is reviewed and various aspects of network city model are examined including formation process, spatial structure, application to management and urban planning, and growth potential. With this, the study aims at providing comprehensive knowledge necessary for evaluating if the network city model is appropriate in explaining the urban phenomena in the 21st century. The result of the review shows that network city model is the one appropriately explaining the changing urban system associated with the economic globalization and the development of transport and information technology. In addition, more and more European city governments tend to adopt this as the urban planning principle.

In 2010, the Ministry of National Defense decided to build a MegaCenter including the cloud computing technology by 2014, as part of the '2012 Information Service Plan', which is now underway. The Cloud computing system environment should be designed applying cloud computing technology and policy for an efficient infrastructure that many IT resources are available in the data center as a concentrated form. That is, the system should be designed in such a way that clouding services will be efficiently provided to meet the needs of users and there will not be unnecessary waste of resources. However, in order to build an optimal system, it should be possible to predict the service performance and the resource availability at the initial phase of system design. In this paper, using the CloudAnalyst simulator to predict availability of the K-defence cloud computing system service, conducts cloud modeling and analysis of the 'Facebook', one of the most famous social network service applications with most users in the world. An Optimal K-Defense cloud computing design model is proposed through simulation results.

사회변혁 과정에서 경쟁우위 확보는 그 시대를 대표하는 기술의 습득과 활용의 정도에 따라 좌우된다. 우리나라의 경우 정보혁명 과정에서 IT기술의 습득과 활용을 위하여 적극적인 노력을 기울인 결과 IT강국이라는 현재의 위치를 확보할 수 있게 되었다. 그러나, 최근들어 IT산업이 국가의 경제발전을 지속적으로 선도하여 나가기 위해서는 IT 산업내의 구조적 취약점을 해결해야 한다는 지적과 함께 참여정부에서 시작된 IT39 중심의 산업정책에 대한 비판도 제기되고 있다. 이에 따라 사회변화의 방향을 가늠해 보고 우리 IT산업이 직면한 문제 분석과 이를 토대로 한 새로운 IT R&D 방향을 모색할 필요가 있다. 미래사회 변화의 큰 특징은 융합으로 대변된다. 정보처리 기술과 통신기술의 융합으로 시작된 이 흐름은 최근 통방융합이라는 차원을 넘어 이종기술간 및 이종산업간 융합이라는 개념으로 확장 진화되고 있다. 또한, 사회변혁의 패러다임도 지식기반사회에서 융합시대로 급격히 전환되고 있다. 융합이라는 패러다임 변혁의 물결에 편승하기 위해서는 IT기술이 융합시대에서 어떠한 역할을 하고, 어떻게 진화해 갈 것인지를 규명하는 작업이 필요하다. IT기술은 그동안의 혁신적 발전을 기반으로 여타 기술 및 산업 발전을 견인하는 원천기술로 작용할 것이 확실시 된다. 따라서, 융합시대에서 IT기술은 기존의 독자적 산업영역에 국한되지 않고 새로운 기술과 산업으로 그 응용범위가 대폭 확장됨으로써 기존에 IT가 지녔던 기술적, 산업적 중요 성과는 비교할 수 없을 정도의 의미를 지니게 될 것이다. 융합시대에 대응하여 IT R&D 방향을 검토하는 전략적 의미도 여기에서 찾을 수 있게 된다. 융합시대에서 IT R&D는 IT가 여타 기술 및 산업발전을 위한 원천기술화를 비롯하여 (1) 유비쿼터스 인프라, (2) 디지털 인텔리전스, (3) 융합부품, (4) 메가 컨버전스 등과 같은 4대 동력에 집중할 필요가 있다. IT의 원천기술화 및 4대 동력에의 집중이야말로 융합시대를 슬기롭게 열어가는 '전략적 창(strategic window)‘이 될 것이다.
