The effects of infection severity of susceptible tomato varieties, Rutgers and Boksu 2, by root-knot nematode, meloidogyne hapla, M. arenaria or M. javanica on plant growths and tomato yields were investigated. The inoculum levels of each nematode species were 0, 1,000 and 10,000 nematodes per 42cm diam. pot. Tomato yield was reduced by the nematode infection. Severity of infection was on the decreasing order of M. javanica, M. incognita, M. arenaria, M. hapla, ranging from $80\%$ by M. javanica to only $7\%$ by M. hapla. Yield reduction by infection of M. hapla was more prominent in Boksu 2 than in Rutgers. However the results were vice versa for the other nematode species, The top fresh-weight of Rutgers inoculated with 10,000 nematodes was greater than root weight, regardless of the nematode species, whereas plant height and top fresh weight decreased with increasing root weight when inoculated with inoculum density of 1,000/pot.

This paper proposed a new transponder detection method to reduce tag recognition time and simplify anti-collision process in RFID systems. In conventional systems, a transponder in detectable area is passively recognized by responding to a reader command. In addition, if there are multiple tags in the area, a collision between tags occurs by responding at the same time to a command and anti-collision process begins. In the proposed method, tags are actively recognized without any command from a reader which results to reducing a tag recognition time and simplifying anti-collision process. To compare transponder recognition time, the process of transponder recognition in conventional systems is analysed. A circuit to detect transponder directly is developed and antenna voltage variation of a reader in the appearance of multiple transponders is analysed for the implementation of the proposed method.

There has been growing interest in the methods for measuring the credits of individual authors in multi-authored research papers in response to the increase of research collaboration. Having a good understanding for academic norms of individual discipline is essential to measure author credit effectively. However, many Korean universities do not consider different norms for determining the order of authors across disciplines. Rather, they tend to use a standardized method to assess the credits of authors in multi-authored papers. Therefore, this study presented some problems of applying a standardized method to measure author credits in multi-authored papers in economics. The findings of this study confirmed the frequent use of alphabetical author order in economics papers; however, many university guidelines for research evaluation do not take account the alphabetical authorship in measuring the credits of authors. The authors suggest the needs for (1) establishment of a clear definition for primary authors, (2) flexibility in assessment methods for author credit, and (3) empirical research on author credit.

This paper proposes a framework to determine the routes of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to conduct multiple tasks in different locations considering the survivability of the vehicles. The routing problem can be formulated as the vehicle routing problem (VRP) with different cost matrices representing the trade-off between the safety of the UAVs and the mission completion time. The threat level for a UAV at a certain location was modeled considering the detection probability and the shoot-down probability. The minimal-cost path connecting two locations considering the threat level and the flight distance was obtained using the Dijkstra algorithm in hexagonal cells. A case study for determining the optimal routes for a persistent multi-UAVs surveillance and reconnaissance missions given multiple enemy bases was conducted and its results were discussed.

The next generation cellular radio systems require high data rate transmission and large system capacity In order to meet these requirements, multiple antennas can be used at the base and mobile stations, forming MIMO(multiple-input, multiple-output) channels This paper considers a downlink MIMO system assuming a large number of base station antennas, a small number of mobile station antennas, and rich-scattering, quasi-stationary, and flat-fading channel environments When the channel state information is given at the base station in a single user system, a MIMO technique with SVD(singular value decomposition) and water-filling can achieve the maximal downlink channel capacity. In multi-user environments, however, SDMA(space division multiple acces) technique can be used to further increase the total channel capacity supported by the base station This paper proposes a MIMO SDMA technique which can transmit parallel data streams to each of multiple users. The proposed method. can achieve higher total channel capacity than SVD-based MIMO techniques or conventional SDMA using smart antennas.

This paper presents a method to design a centralized repetitive controller that is robust to variations in the multiple system parameters. The uncertain parameters are specified probabilistically by their probability distribution functions. Instead of working with the distribution functions directly, the centralized repetitive controller is designed from a set of models that are generated from the specified probability functions. With this multiple-model design approach, any number of uncertain parameters that follow any type of distribution functions can be treated. Furthermore, the controller is derived by minimizing a frequency-domain based cost function that produces monotonic convergence of the tracking error as a function of repetition number. Numerical illustrations show how the proposed multiple-model design method produces a repetitive controller that is significantly more robust than an optimal repetitive controller designed from a single nominal model of the multiple system.

Shiitake mushrooms were dried by hot air, far infrared and freeze dryers in order to compare qualities after drying. When hot air drying was performed with the four temperature variations ranged from $45\;to\;70^{\circ}C$, there was tendency to increase volume retention but decrease rehydration ratio, as drying temperature increased. And the largest amout of 5'-GMP was contained in mushroom dried at $50^{\circ}C$. For far infrared drying, volume retentions were lower but rehydration ratios were higher, as compared with hot air drying at the same temperature. In freeze drying, freezing rate had no influence on volume retention but rehydration ratio was highest value when frozen at $-18^{\circ}C$. As shelf temperature increased(drying rate increased), rehydration ratio increased. Also, contents of 5'-AMP, 5'-GMP and 5'-XMP increased with the increase of freezing rate and drying rate.

This paper focuses on dispatching strategy for AGVs(Automated Guided Vehicle). The goal of AGV dispatching problem is allocating jobs to AGVs to minimizing QC delay and AGV total travel distance. Due to the highly dynamic nature of container terminal environment, the effect of dispatching is hard to predict thus it leads to frequent modification of dispatching results. Given this situation, single rule-based approach is widely used due to its simplicity and small computational cost. However, single rule-based approach has a limitation that cannot guarantee a satisfactory performance for the various performance measures. In this paper, dispatching strategy based on multicriteria heuristics is proposed. Proposed strategy consists of multiple decision criteria. A muti-objective evolutionary algorithm is applied to optimize weights of those criteria. The result of simulation experiment shows that the proposed approach outperforms single rule-based dispatching approaches.

The Q-learning algorithm based on reinforcement learning is useful for learning the goal for one behavior at a time, using a combination of discrete states and actions. In order to learn multiple actions, applying a behavior-based architecture and using an appropriate behavior adjustment method can make a robot perform fast and reliable actions. Q-learning is a popular reinforcement learning method, and is used much for robot learning for its characteristics which are simple, convergent and little affected by the training environment (off-policy). In this paper, Q-learning algorithm is applied to a lamp robot to learn multiple behaviors (human recognition, desk object recognition). As the learning rate of Q-learning may affect the performance of the robot at the learning stage of multiple behaviors, we present the optimal multiple behaviors learning model by changing learning rate.

In this paper, we propose carrier phase synchronization algorithm which are base on turbo coded system for DVB-RCS. There have been two categories of phase estimator, single estimator outside turbo code decoder and multiple estimators inside turbo code decoder. In single estimator, we use the estimation algorithm that ML(Maximum Likelihood) and LMS(Least Mean Square), also three different soft decision methods are proposed. Multiple estimator apply PSP(Per Survivor Processing) algorithm additionally. We compared performance between single estimator and Multiple estimator in AWGN channel. We presented the two methods of PSP algorithm for performance elevation. First is the Bi-directional channel estimation and second is binding method.
