In recent, there have been done many studies on applications that monitor the information of mobile objects using Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). A density query that finds out an area spread by density that a target object requires in the whole sensing field is a field of object monitoring applications. In this paper, we propose a novel homogeneous network-based in-network density query processing scheme that significantly reduces query processing costs and assures high accuracy. This scheme is based on the possibility-based expected region selection technique and the result compensation technique in order to enhance the accuracy of the density query and to minimize its energy consumption. To show the superiority of our proposed scheme, we compare it with the existing density query processing scheme. As a result, our proposed scheme reduces about 92% energy consumption for query processing, while its network lifetime increases compared to the existing scheme. In addition, the proposed scheme guarantees higher accuracy than the existing scheme in terms of the query result.

국내산 밀을 유기농 재배하여 친환경 농산물 인증을 받으려면 파종에 필요한 종자도 유기농으로 생산된 것(유기종자)을 사용해야한다. 국립식량과학원에서는 유기종자 생산용 밀 품종 선발을 위한 연구를 수행하고 있으며, 관련 시험으로서 유기질 비료 시비가 밀의 농업형질 및 종자의 아미노산 함량에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 무비, 화학비료 및 유기질 비료를 시비한 시험구에 금강밀 등 24개 밀 품종을 파종하여 시험 구별로 출수기 등 농업형질과 수확된 종자의 아미노산 함량을 분석하였다. 밀의 출수기는 시비 조건에 따른 영향을 받지 않았으나 성숙기는 유기질 비료 시비조건에서 화학비료 및 무비보다 1일과 2일 지연되었다. 밀의 간장, 수장, 수수, 수당립수 및 L중은 시비의 종류에 따른 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 한편, 유기질 비료 시비에 따른 밀 종실수량(368.4kg/10a)은 무비 및 화학비료보다 각각 25%와 8% 유의하게 증가하였다. 밀 종자의 전체 아미노산 함량은 무비<화학비료<유기질비료 순으로 유의하게 증가하였다. 각각의 아미노산별로 시비조건에 따른 함량차이를 조사한 결과, Glutamate 등 13종의 아미노산은 시비조건에서 5~16% 증가하였다. Alanine 함량의 경우 무비조건에 비하여 유기질 비료 시비조건에서 38% 증가하였으나 화학비료 시비조건에서는 12% 감소하였다. 한편, tyrosine, phenylalanine 및 proline은 유기질 비료 시비조건에서 11~29% 감소하였으나, 화학비료 시비조건에서 9~36% 증가하였다.

Autoxidative stability of wheat bran and germ oil extracted from Keumkang wheat (WBG-K) or Dark Northern Spring wheat (WBG-DNS) at $50^{\circ}C$ in the dark was compared by peroxide values (POV) and fatty acid composition by gas chromatography. Changes of minor compounds were monitored by HPLC. WBG-K showed significantly higher linoleic but lower oleic acid content than WBG-DNS. WBG-DNS contained more phospholipids but less tocopherols and carotenoids than WBG-K. POV of oils was increased during storage, with no significant difference in the oxidation rates between two oils. Tocopherols, carotenoids, and phospholipids in both oils were degraded during the autoxidation. Total phospholipids content showed the highest correlation with the degree of oxidation in WBG oils. The results clearly showed that both fatty acid composition and contents of tocopherols, carotenoids, and phospholipids co-affected the autoxidation of WBG oil.

전고체 리튬 이차전지는 기존 리튬 이차전지의 구성요소 가운데 액체 전해질을 고체 전해질로 대체한 것을 말한다. 전지의 폭발이나 화재의 위험성이 업소 제조공정이 단순화되며 고 에너지 밀도화 가능성에서 기존 리튬 이차전지보다 유리한 전고체 리튬이차전지는 차세대 이차전지로 주목받고 있다. 본고에서는 전고체 리튬 이차전지의 핵심 요소기술인 세라믹 고체 전해질과 용량 및 에너지 밀도 향상을 위한 전고체 이차전지 구조 등에 대해 연구개발 현황을 조사하였다.

Histograms are popularly used for selectivity estimation in database systems. In conventional histogram methods, buckets return the approximated results based on the assumption that all objects in a bucket are uniformly distributed. However, the objects within the region of a query are not likely to be uniformly distributed. That is, there can be some skews (i.e., clusters) in the buckets, which may significantly degrade the accuracy of the histogram. The aim of this work is to enhance the accuracy of histograms. For this purpose, we propose a new two-dimensional histogram method considering clusters. The proposed method detects dense regions and exploits them for organizing buckets. Since the proposed method effectively reduces accuracy degradation caused by clusters, it can provide improved, robust accuracy against skewed data distributions. Through experiments, we show that the proposed method provides up to 74% improved performance compared with the conventional histogram.

Naturally present antioxidants, tocopherols, carotenoids, and phospholipids in the bran and germ oils from Keumkang (K-WBG oil) and Dark Northern Spring wheats (DNS-WBG oil) were determined during storage under 1700 lux light at $5^{\circ}C$ by HPLC. Oil oxidation was monitored by peroxide values (POV) and conjugated dienoic acid content. The results showed that antioxidants were degraded during storage of the WBG oils under light, with higher degradation rates for carotenoids and phospholipids in the K-WBG oil compared to the DNS-WBG oil. Light increased oil oxidation and the rate of oxidation was higher in K-WBG oil than in the DNS-WBG oil. There was a high correlation between POV and residual amounts of antioxidants during photo-oxidation, with phospholipids showing the greatest effects on POV. This study suggests that a higher amount and lower degradation rate of phospholipids in the DNS-WBG oil contributed to its higher photo-oxidative stability compared to the K-WBG oil.

A series of numerical simulations were carried out using STOMP( Subsurface Transport over Multiple Phase) simulator. The flow and distribution of LNAPL were analyzed in homogeneous fine and coarse sand. Vertical movement of LNAPL is faster in the coarser sand. But the total volume of LNAPL retained in the unsaturated zone is larger in the finer sand. A fine layer in the coarse sand domain is also simulated. The results showed that the retained LNAPL volume and shape are highly influenced by the Position of the fine layer. Flow and distributions of LNAPL were simulated when there were heterogeneous lenses in the sand domain. Water table fluctuation was also considered. In these cases, it was found that the heterogeneous lens was a barrier to LNAPL flow, and water table fluctuation stimulated the downward movement of retained LNAPL. The LNAPL flow and distribution observed in these numerical experiments show that in the subsurface environment, the behaviors of LNAPL highly depend on heterogeneities of unsaturated zone and the dynamic hydrogeologic condition such as water table fluctuation. These results can explain some of the complexity of LNAPL flow and distribution Patterns in LNAPL contaminated field sites.

This study was carried out to establish the optimum organic fertilization and microbial compost on wheat cultivation in order to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and improve the quality of wheat. The tests resulted in a yield of organic fertilization of 2~6% lower than the yield of standard 4.16 Ton/ha (a yield more than that of microbial compost). The recession was not statistically significant. The trial which involved organic fertilizer that had a yield of 800 kg/ha and microbial compost which had a yield of 2,000 kg/ha resulted in 96% yield of standard trial. The quality of flour in the manure was 50% less during the trial and was not making a good result. In protein content and SDS-sedimentation volume, standard trial had the highest yield in test trial (standard > miccompost > organic fertilization). However, Ash content was not statistically significant.

39 K의 임계온도를 갖는 $MgB_2$ 초전도체를 이용한 전력에너지와 MRI 의료 기기로의 응용 가능성이 높아지고 있다. $MgB_2$ 초전도체 제조에 있어서 마그네슘과 반응성이 좋은 비정질의 붕소 원료 분말 가격이 비싼 반면 상대적으로 경제적인 결정질 분말의 기계적 밀링 공정을 이용하여 비정질화와 나노 입자로의 크기 감소 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 또한 탄소를 이용한 붕소 치환으로부터 고 자기장하에서 초전도 임계 성질을 향상시키고자 유, 무기물 형태의 여러 가지 탄소 소스를 개발하는 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 저가의 95~97% 순도, 약 1 ${\mu}m$ 이하 크기를 갖는 준결정상의 붕소 분말을 이용하여 기계적 밀링에 따른 붕소 분말의 비정질화 및 입자 나노화, $MgB_2$ 반응성 향상, $MgB_2$ 결정립 크기 감소 및 결정립계 피닝 증가에 의한 초전도 임계 물성 향상에 대하여 알아보았다. 또한 여러 시간 동안 밀링된 각 붕소 분말에 액체 글리세린을 이용한 탄소 도핑 전처리를 통하여 밀링 시간의 최적화를 알아보았고 이로부터 제조된 $MgB_2$ 초전도 벌크의 경우 적절한 임계온도 감소, 격자 왜곡 결함과 높은 결정립계 밀도 등에 의한 플럭스 피닝 향상으로 $MgB_2$ 초전도체의 임계전류밀도 및 비가역자기장이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 즉, 경제성 있는 저급의 준결정상을 갖는 붕소 원료 분말의 입자 비정질 나노화 및 탄소 도핑 전처리를 통하여 $MgB_2$ 초전도 임계 물성을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

This study aims to investigate the settling velocity of aggregates of cohesive sediment (floc) and its relationship with sediment size, density and fractal dimension. A system of commercial camera and macro-lens is used for the experiment. Through the image-analysis technique, the image taken by the camera system is analyzed. For the experiment, kaolinite and a natural sediment sampled at Lake Apopka in Florida have been tested. From this study, it is known that kaolinite and Lake Apopka sediments show different behaviors mainly depending on the organic matter content. Samples of kaolinite with less organic contents show a more definite trend to follow a fractal theory and relatively strong relationships between the settling velocity, density, fractal dimension and floc size compared to the Lake Apopka sediments rich in organics.
