European directive DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC requires the minimum recycling & recovery rate on the waste electrical and electronic equipments (WEEE). But, they do not have guidelines on the calculation methods for recycling and recovery rate. A standard method to calculate recyclability and recoverability rate of products in the designing stage is necessary for the manufacturers so that they can reflect the calculated result to the improvement of product design. In this work, we investigated the existing calculation methods for the recycling and recovery rates of WEEE and the recyclability and recoverability rates of electrical and electronic equipments (EEE). A method for the calculation of recyclability and recoverability rates for the EEE products in the development stage was developed. The newly-developed calculation method was applied to some EEE products and the calculated results were evaluated.

Smoothing is to creating a transmission plan consisting of sections of frames that can be sent at the same transmission rate for compressed and stored video data. Various algorithms have been studied for the smoothing to minimize the number of transmission rate changes, the number of transmission rate changes, and the amount of transmission rate increase. This study evaluates the performance of a smoothing algorithm that minimizes the increase in transmission rates and maximizes the increase in transmission rates when the transmission rate is required to maximize the excess bandwidth to be secured by the server in an environment with limited server bandwidth. The available transmission rates and buffer sizes available in the server are set in various ways and evaluated by the number of fps changes, the minimum fps, the average fps, and fps variability. As a result of the comparison, the proposed algorithm showed excellent average fps and fps variability.

European directive DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC requires minimum recycling & recovery rates on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). We tried to make references for recycling and recovery rates of parts and materials used in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE), which could be used to calculate recyclability and recoverability rates of a product in the development phase. First, we investigated recycling processes of WEEE and recycling and recovery characteristics of parts and materials. Based on the investigation results and the european recycling data, we made a data base of parts and materials for calculation of recycling and recovery rates of EEE. The developed DB was improved by reflecting advices of european experts.

현재 발전차액 지원을 받고 있는 신재생에너지 전원은 태양광, 풍력, 수력, 매립가스, 바이오 가스, 연료전지 등 6개 전원이 있다. 신재생에너지 중에서 태양광, 조력, 연료전지, 풍력의 기준가격은 고정가격이며, 폐기물은 변동가격이고, 수력, 매립가스, 바이오가스, 바이오매스는 고정가격과 변동가격 중에서 선택할 수 있도록 되어 있다. 지난 2년간 신재생에너지 발전소 실적 이용률을 기준가격 적용 이용률과 비교해 보면 매립가스(20MW 미만), 바이오가스, 연료전지 이용률은 기준가격 적용 이용률 보다 낮게 나타났으며, 특히 바이오가스는 실적 이용률이 매우낮게 나타났다. 기타 신재생에너지 전원은 실적 이용률이 높게 나타났다. 발전차액(기반기금)은 기준가격에서 계통한계가격을 뺀 금액을 의미하며 고정가격, 변동가격의 요금선택에 따라 발전차액에 미치는 요소들이 달라진다. 고정가격을 선택한 경우는 계통한계가격, 이용률(전력 거래량)이 영향을 미치며 변동가격을 선택한 경우는 이용률만이 발전차액에 영향을 미친다.

Smoothing is a transmission plan that converts video data stored at a variable bit rate into a fixed bit rate. Algorithms for smoothing include CBA, which aims to minimize the number of transmission rate increases, MCBA, which minimizes the number of transmission rate changes, and MVBA algorithms that minimize the amount of transmission rate change. This paper compares the proposed algorithm with the CBA algorithm with various video data, buffer size, and performance evaluation factors as a follow-up to the proposed smoothing algorithm that minimizes (maximizes) the transmission rate increase (decrease) when the server requires more bandwidth The evaluation factors used were compared with the number of changes in the fps rate, the minimum fps, the average fps, fps variability, and the number of frames to be discarded. As a result of the comparison, the proposed algorithm showed superiority in comparing the number of fps rate changes and the number of frames discarded.

This study peformed an evaluation of the physical and mechanical properties and sound absorption characteristics of porous concrete according to the target void ratio and content of the recycled aggregate in order to reduce the noise generated in roads, railroads, residential areas and downtown areas and effectively utilize the recycled waste concrete aggregate generated as a byproduct of construction. The test results demonstrated that the difference between the target void ratio and the actual measured void ratio was less than 1.7% and that the tendency of the compression strength was to reduce rapidly when the target void ratio and the content of the recycled aggregate exceeded 25% and 50%, respectively. In addition, the sound absorption characteristics of the porous concrete using recycled waste concrete aggregate showed that the NRC was the highest at the target void ratio of 25% and the content of the recycled aggregate had very little influence on the NRC. Therefore, when considering the compression strength and the sound absorption characteristics of porous concrete, the proper target void ratio and the content of the recycled waste concrete aggregate are thought to be 25% and 50%, respectively

In the adaptable bandwidth allocation technique, a transmission plan for variable rate video data is made by smoothing algorithms such as CBA algorithm and the data is sent by the transmission plan considering network traffic. But the CBA algorithm, the MCBA algorithm, MVBA algorithm and the other smoothing algorithms produce a transmission plan where the size of the increasing interval of transmission rate is generally larger than the size of the decreasing interval. And the transmission rate in CBA algorithm, the MCBA algorithm, the MVBA algorithm is changed in overflow curve during the increasing interval of transmission rate. This may cause many frames to be discarded when available transmission rate is larger than transmission rate by the transmission plan. In this paper, the smoothing algorithm, where transmission rate is changed in the middle of underflow curve and overflow curve to decrease the number of discarded frames, but the transmission rate increases at the minimum, and the CBA algorithm, the MCBA algorithm, the MVBA algorithm are applied to a transmission plan in the adaptable bandwidth allocation technique, and the minimum frame rates, the average frame rates, the variation of frame rates, and the numbers of discarded frames are compared in among algorithms.

In the adaptable bandwidth allocation technique, a transmission plan for variable rate video data is made by the CBA algorithm and the data is transmitted by considering network traffic. But the CBA algorithm produces a transmission plan where the size of the increasing interval of transmission rate is generally larger than the size of the decreasing interval. And the transmission rate in CBA algorithm is changed in overflow curve during the increasing interval of transmission rate. This ぉy cause many frames to be discarded when available transmission rate is small. In this paper, a smoothing algorithm is proposed, where transmission rate is changed in the middle of underflow curve and overflow curve, but the transmission rate increases at the minimum. In order to show the performance, the proposed algorithm and a CBA algorithm were applied to a transmission plan in the adaptable bandwidth allocation technique, and the minimum frame rates, the average frame rates, the variation of frame rates, and the numbers of discarded frames were compared in both algorithms.

Protoplasts of P. cornucopiae were reverted to normal hyphal growth and reversion frequency was $0.04{\sim}19%$. The complete medium stabilized with 0.6 M sucrose was most effective for regeneration of protoplasts. When hypertonic mushroom complete medium not containing agar was overlaid, regeneration frequency of protoplasts was the highest rate among the others of topagar. The protoplast reversion frequency and mycelial growth of P. cornucopiae were increased when various amino acids, nucleic acid components and vitamin compound were added to the hypertonic minimal medium. The relation between sources increasing reversion frequency and sources accelerating mycelial growth was similar in amino acids and nucleic acid components but it was different in vitamins. The protoplast reversion frequency showed the highest rate when all sources were added to the regeneration minimal medium. Microscopically, regeneration patterns of protoplasts showed formation of a bud-like structure, direct germination, yeast-like cell chain of the protoplast, and the production of both direct germ tube and yeast-like cell chain from a protoplast.
