Two dimensional Monte-Carlo simulations of a non-reactive solute plume in isotropic porous media which are physically and chemically heterogeneous are conducted to determine the variations of moment. Retardation factors of 1, 2 and 5 are given to ascertain how the second moments are changed as adsorption increased. Retarded longitudinal second spatial moment, ${Z_{11}}^{'R}(t',l')$, increased during the transport process and as the dimensionless lengths of line plume source, $l_2'$, increased. ${Z_{11}}^{'R}(t',l')$ decreased as the retardation factors increased, and the simulated moments fit well to the first-order analytical results. Retarded longitudinal plume centroid variance, ${Z_{11}}^{'R}(t',l')$, decreased as the dimensionless lengths of line plume source, $l_2'$, increased and as the retardation factor increased. The result indicates that the uncertainty about the plume center decreased, and the ergodic condition for the second spatial moments is far from reaching. Simulated longitudinal one particle displacement covariance, ${Z_{11}}^{'R}(t')$, well consistent with the first-order analytical results for the three degrees of retardation factors of 1, 2 and 5 respectively. It is, consequently, concluded that the retarded longitudinal second moments could be produced by stochastic simulation, and that the first-order analytical results definitely provides very close values of the longitudinal retarded moments.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the size of the e-commerce has been increased rapidly. This pandemic, which made contact-less communication culture in everyday life made the e-commerce market to be opened even to the consumers who would hesitate to purchase and pay by electronic device without any personal contacts and seeing or touching the real products. Consumers who have experienced the easy access and convenience of the online purchase would continue to take those advantages even after the pandemic. During this time of transformation, however, the size of information source for the consumers has become even shrunk into a flat screen and limited to visual only. To provide differentiated and competitive information on products, companies are adopting AR/VR and steaming technologies but the reviews from the honest users need to be recognized as important in that it is regarded as strong as the well refined product information provided by marketing professionals of the company and companies may obtain useful insight for product development, marketing and sales strategies. Then from the consumer's point of view, if the ratings of reviews are widely diverged how consumers would process the review information before purchase? Are non-converged ratings always unreliable and worthless? In this study, we analyzed how consumer's regulatory focus moderate the attitude to process the diverged information. This experiment was designed as a 2x2 factorial study to see how the variance of product review ratings (high vs. low) for cosmetics affects product attitudes by the consumers' regulatory focus (prevention focus vs. improvement focus). As a result of the study, it was found that prevention-focused consumers showed high product attitude when the review variance was low, whereas promotion-focused consumers showed high product attitude when the review variance was high. With such a study, this thesis can explain that even if a product with exactly the same average rating, the converged or diverged review can be interpreted differently by customer's regulatory focus. This paper has a theoretical contribution to elucidate the mechanism of consumer's information process when the information is not converged. In practice, as reviews and sales records of each product are accumulated, as an one of applied knowledge management types with big data, companies may develop and provide even reinforced customer experience by providing personalized and optimized products and review information.

This paper examines the dynamic relationship between fund flow and market risk at the aggregate level and explores whether sudden sharp changes in fund flow (fund run) can cause a systemic risk in the Korean financial markets. We use daily and weekly data and regression and VAR analysis. Main results of the paper are as follows: First, in the stock market, a concurrent and a lagged unexpected fund flows have a positive relationship with market volatility. A positive shock in fund flow predicts an increase in stock market volatility. In the bond market, an unexpected fund flow has a negative relationship with the default risk premium, but a positive relationship with the term premium. And an unexpected fund flow of the money market fund has a negative relationship with the liquidy risk, but the explanatory power is very low. Second, for examining whether changes in fund flow induce a systemic risk, we construct a spillover index based on the forecast error variance decomposition of VAR model. A spillover index represents that how much the shock in fund flow can explain the change of market risk in a market. In general, explanatory powers from spillover indexes are so fluctuant and low. In the stock market, the impact of shocks in fund flow on market risk is relatively high and persistent during the period from the end of 2007 to 2008, which is the subprime-mortgage crisis period. In bond market, since the end of 2008, the impact of shocks in fund flow spreads to default risk continually, while in the money market, such a systematic effect doesn't take place. The persistent patterns of spillover effect appearing around a certain period in the stock market and the bond market suggest that the shock to the unexpected fund flow may increase the market risk and can be a cause of systemic risk in the financial markets. However, summarizing the results of regression and VAR model analysis, and considering the very low explanatory power of spillover index analysis, we can conclude that changes in fund flow have a very limited power in explaining changes in market risk and it is not very likely to induce the systemic risk by a fund run in the Korean financial markets.

We examine the information transmission between the KT Spot and the KT Futures Index, the SK Telecom Spot and the SK Telecom Futures Index, based on the returns data offered by the Korea Exchange. The data includes daily return data from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2014. Utilizing a dynamic analytical tool-the VAR model, Granger Causality test, Impulse Response Function and Variance Decomposition have been implemented. The results of the analysis are as follows. Firstly, results of Granger Causality test suggests the existence of mutual causality the KT Futures Index and the SK Telecom Futures Index precede and have explanatory power the KT Spot and the SK Telecom Spot However the results also identified a greater causality and explanatory power of the KT Spot and the SK Telecom Spot over the KT Futures Index and the SK Telecom Futures Index. Secondly, the results of impulse response function suggest that the KT Futures Index show immediate response to the KT Spot and are influenced by till time 4. From time 2, the impact gradually disappears. Also the SKT Futures Index show immediate response to the SKT Spot and are influenced by till time 4. From time 2, the impact gradually disappears. Lastly, the variance decomposition analysis shows that the changes of return of the KT Spot and SKT Spot are dependent on those of the KT Futures Index and the SK Telecom Futures Index. This implies that returns on the KT Spot and SKT Spot have a significant influence over returns on the KT Futures Index and the SK Telecom Futures Index. It contributes to the understanding of market price formation function through analysis of detached the KT Spot and the KT Futures Index, the SK Telecom Spot and the SK Telecom Futures Index.

This paper deals with a behavior based decentralized control strategy for UAV swarming utilizing the artificial potential functions and the sliding mode control technique. Individual interactions for swarming behavior are modeled using the artificial potential functions. The motion of individual UAV is directed toward the negative gradient of the combined potential. For tracking the reference trajectory of UAV swarming, a swarming center is considered as the object of control. The sliding-mode control technique is adopted to make the proposed swarm control strategy robust with respect to the system uncertainties and the varying mission environment. Numerical simulation is performed to verify the performance of the proposed controller.

BaCe$O_{3}$를 첨가하여 용융공정으로 제조한 단결정형 Y$Ba_{2}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{x}$(1-2-3) 초전도체의 온도에 대한 자화특성을 연구하였다. 고상반응법과 용융공정으로 0에서 30wt% BaCe$O_{3}$를 1-2-3 결정내에 미세 분산시켰다. 초전도체의 자화특성은 VSM(vibrating sample magnetometer)을 사용하여 77K, 60K, 40K와 20K, 2 Tesla 자장범위에서 측정하였다. BaCe$O_{3}$를 첨가하지 않은 겨우나 5wt% BaCe$O_{3}$를 첨가한 1-2-3 결정의 경우, 77K, 외부자장이 증가시 자화율 차이가 증가하는 비정상 자화특성이 관찰된다. 측정온도가 60K에서는 제2차 최대점이 나타나는 자장값이 고자장쪽으로 이동한다. 20K와 40K의 저온에서는 비정상자화특성이 2 T의 자장범위까지 관찰되지 않았다. 15wt%와 20wt% BaCe$O_{3}$첨가한 시편에서는 자장이 증가하면 자화율차이가 단순히 감소한다. Y-Ba-Cu-O의 flux pinning 기구를 BaCe$O_{3}$첨가에 의한 미세조직변화로 설명하였다.

1990년대를 지나면서 컴퓨팅 환경은 급속히 변화하였다. 과거 메인 프레임 중심의 환경에서 네트워크를 기반으로 클라이언트/서버 모델 중심의 분산 컴퓨팅 환경으로 전환되었다. 이러한 환경에서 복잡하고 유지하기 힘든 데이터 네트워크를 관리를 수행하고, 또한 유용한 정보를 줄 수 있는, 효과적인 네트워크 관리의 필요성이 대두되었다. 이러한 필요에 의해서 네트워크 관리의 개념이 등장하였다. 네트워크 관리에는, 기능적 관점에서, 장애 관리, 구성 관리, 계정관리, 성능 관리, 그리고 보안 관리로 나누어진다[1]. 그런데 네트워크가 발전함에 따라, 네트워크에서 발생할 수 있는 각종 장애를 신속히 발견하여 관리자에게 통보하고 적절한 처리를 할 수 있는 기능이 특히 요구되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 SNMP 트랩 기반의 장애 관리는 기능 면에서 부족한 점이 많다[2]. 예를 들어, 불규칙적인 트랩 메시지, 또는 SNMP 패킷의 소실 때문에 정확한 장애 발견에 문제가 생기게 된다. 본 논문에서는 SNMP 장애 관리 기능을 보완하기 위해 ICMP Echo/Reply 메시지를 이용한 장애 처리 시스템의 구조와 알고리즘에 대해 설명하고, 기존의 SNMP 기반의 NMS와 어떻게 연동될 수 있는 방안에 대해서 기술하도록 하겠다.

본 연구는 Diluted Ceria 입자를 사용한 $SiO_2$(Oxide) CMP 현상에 대한 내용이다. Ceria Slurry의 경우 Silica Slurry와 비교하였을 때 Oxide Wafer 표면과 축합 화학반응을 일으키며 Chemistry Dominant한 CMP Mechanism을 따르고, Wafer Center Removal Rate(RR) Fast 의 특성을 가진다. Ceria Slurry의 문제점인 연마 불균일도를 해결하기 위해 Tribological System을 이용하였다. CMP Tribology는 Pad-Slurry 유막-Wafer의 System을 가지며 윤활막에 작용하는 마찰계수(COF)가 주요 인자이다. Tribology에 적용되는 Stribeck Curve를 통해 Slurry 윤활막의 두께(h) 정도를 예상할 수 있으며, 이 윤활막의 두께를 조절함으로써 Uniformity 향상이 가능하다. 이 Ceria Slurry CMP의 연마 불균일도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법으로 pH 조절 및 점도 증가가 있다. Ceria 입자 CMP는 분산액의 pH 변화에 강한 작용을 받게 되며 PH5 근방에서 최적화된 Uniformity가 가능하다. 점도를 증가시키는 경우 유막 h가 증가하게 되어 Ceria Slurry의 유동이 균일 분포 상태에 가까워지며 Wafer Uniformity 향상이 가능하다.
