Purpose: This study aims to observe bleaching resulted from multipurpose contact lens solutions used to manage lenses with the subjects of colored contact lenses being distributed in Korea. Methods: The lenses have been worn for six months, and their refraction is 0.00D. Three types of colored contact lenses of which margin has been colored with a different manufacturing method have been adopted (type 1: pigment application method, type 2: chemical bonding process, type 3: sandwich method), and multipurpose solutions used were two types containing different components. Each of the colored contact lenses was stored in the multipurpose solutions for 20 days and went through vortexing for 15 seconds per day. Their fluorescence absorbance, surface roughness, brightness index, and color coordinate index were measured before and after the vortexing to see the degree of bleaching. Results: In the two types of multipurpose solutions, every type of the color contact lenses showed no statistically significant difference in their fluorescence absorbance value before and after the vortexing. Regarding surface image, the front surface of the lenses was smooth in every type, and about the back surface, type 3 indicated less protrusion than type 1 and 2. About the difference of color on the lens surface before and after the vortexing, type 3 showed significantly less difference than type 1 and 2; however, all fell into the permissible error. Conclusions: About the bleaching of colored contact lenses resulted from multipurpose solutions for soft contact lenses, there was no difference observed in terms of fluorescence absorbance and color. According to the methods of manufacturing dyes, however, there was difference in the protrusion of the posterior surface image.

Potassium (K) is one of the essential nutrients for plants but is not a constituent of any plant compound. K is substances for activation of many enzymes and influences the process that the enzymes are involved in catalyzing. Although experimental results associated with the K effects with both benefits and no effects on turfgrass growth were reported, the limited research results of K effects on turfgrass among K sources are available in Korea. The objectives of the study was conducted to evaluate responses of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) treated by fertilizer treatments with six K sources. There were six fertilizer treatments as K sources applied to Kentucky bluegrass which were potassium nitrate (13-0-44, PN), potassium chloride (0-0-60, PC), potassium sulfate (0-0-50, PS), polymer-coated potassium sulfate (0-0-45, PPS), potassium thiosulfate (0-0-25, PT), and potassium sulfate granulated with methylene urea (20-0-25, PSU). Potassium of $8g\;m^{-2}$ and N of $5g\;m^{-2}$ was applied 4 times giving a total 20 and $30g\;m^{-2}$, respectively. Although significant differences were found for turfgrass color, quality, chlorophyll index, and clipping dry weight, no consistent results among K sources were found during the one year study. Overall, K treatments didn't affect turfgrass growth in this study.

The purpose of this study is to analyze how the changes of evaluation standards have affected Korean medical researchers' academic performance by comparing the publication status of medical articles both domestically and abroad. A total of 314,559 domestic articles in KMbase and 53,423 articles stored in MEDLINE published abroad by Korean researchers were analyzed. All of the data were compared per year according to the research field and indexed journals by numbers and proportions of articles published domestically and abroad. The analysis showed that the number of total articles and the proportion of articles published abroad increased continuously. In the early 2000s, articles published in Korea decreased, otherwise articles published abroad increased sharply. SCI articles showed a steady increase before 2000, and continued to increase over the next few years. KCI articles also showed a rapid increase in the early 2000s while other articles were decreasing. Publication trends shown in this study were similar despite quantitative and timely differences by research area. Performance evaluations focusing on SCI articles affected on quantitative decrease in the number of total articles published domestically. Quantitative growth itself is not an absolute indicator for academic achievement. Therefore, to complement any evaluation of academic achievement, qualitative analysis needs to be done as well.

KISTI-ACOMS ver. 2.0 has been distributed to more than 340 academic societies and used by more than 130 academic societies for 4 years since 2005 and still is desired for use by lots of other academic societies. But contrary to the desire and requests for system upgrades of academic societies, ACOMS has not been improved for last 3 years and some academic societies began to use domestic or foreign similar pay online peer review systems. In this paper, a new integrated portal service system is suggested in order to attempt national production cost-saving and quality improvement of academic information by creating and collecting high quality scientific and technologic academic information inexpensively. We come up with methodology of integration and utilization of a personal academic activity portal system interoperable with other services of KISTI, an open citation reference database automatically constructed by authors' activity and a journal evaluation system based on impact factor.

Journals are the main indicator to evaluate the level of the studies of a country. The main purpose of this study is to suggest the improvements of the current journal evaluation system to enhance the level of journal quality. To accomplish the above purpose, the 631 researchers are surveyed by internet for their recognition. The major findings are as follows. Firstly, the current registration process need to be maintained, however, need to reinforce the conditions to level up the journal level and to extend the term for keeping the rate. Secondly, the professionalism and credibility of the appraisers need to be reinforced to increase the equity and rationality of the current evaluation system. Thirdly, the evaluation process for the newly entering journal need to be more strict than the current system. Fourthly, the Korean citation index or Kor-Factor need to be applied to evaluate the domestic journals. Lastly, the restriction policy is need to constrain the number of journals.

In this paper, we suggest a query optimization algorithm to select the optimal processing method of an extended boolean query on inverted files. There can be a lot of methods for processing an extended boolean query according to the processing sequence oh the keywords con tamed in the query, In this sense, the problem of optimizing an extended boolean query it essentially that of optimizing the keyword sequence in the query. In this paper, we show that the problem is basically analogous to the problem of finding the optimal join order in database query optimization, and apply the ideas in the area to the problem solving. We establish the cost model for processing an extended boolean query and develop an algorithm to filled the optimal keyword-processing sequence based on the concept of keyword rank using the keyword selectivity and the access costs of inverted file. We prove that the method selected by the optimization algorithm is really optimum, and show, through experiments, that the optimal method is superior to the others in performance We believe that the suggested optimization algorithm will contribute to the significant enhancement of the information retrieval performance.

This paper aims to propose the most appropriate method for calculating the journal PageRank in a domestic citation database. Korean journals show relatively high journal self-citation ratios and have many outgoing citations to external journals which are not included in the domestic citation database. Because the PageRank algorithm requires recursive calculation to converge, those two characteristics of domestic citation databases must be accounted for in order to measure the citation impact of Korean journals. Therefore, two PageRank calculation methods and four formulas for self-citation adjustment have been examined and tested for KSCD journals. The results of the correlation analysis and regression analysis show that the SCImago Journal Rank formula with the cr2 type self-citation adjustment method seems to be a more appropriate way to measure the relative impact of domestic journals in the Korean Science Citation Database.

The pumpkin fruit fly [Bactrocera (paradacus) depressa Shiraki] was first trapped on June 1st with ground and Mcphail traps in Jinan and Iksan drea, Chonbuk Province and was found to have single generation during the grow-ing season in 2002. Not much difference existed in the number of B. (paradacus) depressa flies attracted to various colors but Bactrocera (zugodacus) scurellatus Hendal came to yellow and green more than to blue color. In a study of the effect of diets on the degree of attraction by the flies, it turned out that B. (paradacus) depressa came more to yeast hydrolysate (YH) and in June i.e, the early period of adult emergence of the year. However, more individuals of B. (zugodacus) scutellatus are attracted to the extract of young pumpkin fruits. More B. (paradacus) depressa was caught with McPhail traps while more B. (zugodacus) scurellatus was caught with sticky traps and accordingly, species specific traps are recommended when yearly population trends of fruit flies are studied.

Scene change detection is pretreatment to index and search video information in video search system, and it is very important technology for overall performance. Existing scene change detection used single characteristic of pixel value difference, histogram difference, etc or mixed single characteristics that have complementary relationship. However, accuracy of those researches is very poor for special video such as infrared camera, night shooting. Therefore, this paper is proposed the method that is mixed color histogram and at algorithm for scene change detection at the specific movie. To verify the usefulness of a proposed method, we did an experiment which used color histogram only and KLT algorithm with color histogram. In result, evaluation index of proposed method is improved about 11.4% at the specific movie.
