As massive integration technology of transistors has been developing, multi-core circuit is fabricated on a silicon chip and a clock frequency is getting faster to meet the system requirement. But increasing the clock frequency can induce some problems to violate the operation of system such as clock synchronization, so it is very import to avoid metastability events to design digital chips. In this paper, metastability windows are measured by bisection method in H-spice depending on temperature, supply voltage, and the size of transmission gate with D-FF designed with 180nm CMOS process. The simulation results show that the metastability window(: MW) is slightly increasing to temperature and supply voltage, but is quadratic to the area of a transmission gate, and the best area ration of P and Ntransitor in transmission gate is P/N=4/2 to get the least MW.

Because of the enormous processing ability, General-Purpose Graphics Processing Unit(GPGPU) has been applied to many fields including electronics design automation. The SAT algorithm is one of the core algorithm in many electronics design automation tools. There has been some efforts to apply GPGPU to the SAT algorithm, but it is difficult to parallelize the SAT algorithm because of its characteristics. In this paper, I applied GPGPU to the SAT algorithm by parallelizing the propagation routine that is relatively suitable to parallel processing. On the basis of the similarity of the propagation routine to the sparse matrix multiplication, the data structure for the SAT problem is constituted, and the parallel propagation routine is described. To prevent data loss between paralllel threads, atomic operations are exploited. The experimental results for some benchmark SAT problems show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the previous GPGPU-based SAT solver.

A new via structure on printed circuit board has been proposed for differential signaling in applications of high-speed interconnection. In new structure, the via is physically separated and then divided into two electrically-isolated sections using mechanical drill routing process. These cutted vias are connected respectively to the traces of the differential pair. New via structure makes possible to rout the differential pair using only one via, while conventional via structure needs two vias for interconnection. Because the spacing even in via region keeps almost constant, new via structure can alleviate an impedance discontinuity and then enhance its signal transmission characteristics such as reflection loss and insertion loss. It is expected that new via structure is effective in differential signaling for high-speed interconnection.

Recently, the collection of the sensor data and its analysis become important as the smart buildings equipped with the various sensors appear as a usual scene. The interconnection through the wire cable among the sensors is indispensible because of the information collections such as the temperature, the humidity, and the luminance in the rooms and the hallways for the effective management of the in-building energies. However, these interconnections through the cabling will be very costly, time-consuming, and a difficult task since they will cause some damages to the buildings. Therefore, the interconnections through the unwired connections are required in terms of the deployment effectiveness such as time and cost In this paper, the design and the short sequence operation appropriateness are confirmed through the simulation of the signal measurement system for in-building propagation characteristics based on short signature sequence and the analysis of the system characteristics based on the false alarm probability is performed thereafter.

The display that provides information to us through the visual sense is a very important information transmission means by intuitively transmitting information, and the liquid crystal display (LCD) is the most widely used information transmission display. In this paper, we studied solvent assisted micromolding as an alternative for the rubbing that is essential to align the liquid crystals in LCD and successfully aligned the liquid crystal molecules by constructing the nanostructures on conventional polyimide alignment layer. When generating the nanostructures on the polyimide film, there was a competitive correlation between the dissolution effect of the polymer by the solvent and the capillary effect of the polyimide molecules into the nanostructures of the mold depending on the process temperature. It was possible to form nanostructures with high step by deriving the optimum temperature. These nanostructures were able to align the liquid crystal molecules uniformly and demonstrated that they could form a desirable pretilt angle.

To create 3D sound, we usually use two methods which are two channels or multichannel sound systems. Because of cost and space problems, we prefer two channel sound system to multi-channel. Using a headphone or two speakers, the most typical method to create 3D sound effects is a technology of head related transfer function (HRTF) which contains the information that sound arrives from a sound source to the ears of the listener. But it causes a problem to localize a sound source around a certain places which is called cone-of-confusion. In this paper, we proposed the new algorithm to reduce the confusion of sound image localization. HRTF grouping and psychoacoustics theory are used to boost the spectral cue with spectrum difference among each directions. Informal listening tests show that the proposed method improves the front-back sound localization characteristics much better than conventional methods.

The Asynchronous indivisual learning offer advantages such as allowing learners to study at their preferred times without spatial constraints. However, since these classes are not conducted in real-time, there are limitations in conveying learners' feedback on problematic or inadequately explained course content to the instructors. This paper proposed a system for relaying feedback information from learners who view course content to the instructors. Learners can investigate the reasons for pausing online recorded class content, and they can transmit these pause reasons along with the time information of the paused content to the instructors. Instructors receive feedback information and pause times of learners' online recorded class videos in graphical form, making it easier to identify areas with numerous issues in the course content at a glance. Instructors can incorporate this feedback to re-upload the content, resulting in higher-quality course materials, which, in turn, can enhance learners' academic achievements.

The information delivery and transmission media(DID or PID) market is making remarkable growth as the high-speed networks are spreading and LCD/LED TVs are more and more popularized, and display devices are increasingly large and high-definition. In addition, the popularization of smart devices and the expansion of the information delivery and transmission media market make a demand for N-Screen in content service. Colleges and universities have installed and operated various types of DID to promote their schools and departments and deliver information about them, still remaining in the level of media content implementation. So, we implement and evaluate a next-generation electronic bulletin board for each department that allows for interactive N-Screen communication based on the integration of smart phone and internet. This board enhanced efficiency as supporting N-Screen, inserting and deleting the contents at real time and offering bidirectional communication.

The stereoselectivity on the electron-transfer reaction between optical active ${\bigwedge}$-[CO(EDDS)]- and conformationally restricted complex $[Co({\pm}chxn)_3]^{2+}$ has been examined in aqueous solution. The products are four conformational isomers $(lel_3,\;lel_2ob,\;lelob_2,\;and\;ob_3)$ of ${\bigwedge}$-[Co(chxn)$_3]^{3+}$ with optical purities of 22% e.e, 25% e.e, 11% e.e, and 10% e.e, respectively. The reaction between ${\bigwedge}$-[CO(EDDS)]- and $[Co({\pm}chxn)_3]^{2+}$ in DMSO produced lel3-${\Delta}$ and lel2ob-${\Delta}$-[Co(chxn)$_3]^{3+}$ whose optical purities are 100% e.e, and 75% e.e, respectively.

Yoneyama 등이 2001년 기존의 potentiometry 형의 요소 센서보다 우수한 성능을 갖는ampeometry 정의 요소 센서를 제안한 이후, 전자 전달 메커니즘에 관한 관심이 집중되어 왔으나, urease로부터 전극 기질까지의 전자 전달 매질로서 전도성 고분자보다 쉽고 단순한 공정은 아직까지 제시된 바 없다. 본 논문에서는 전도성 고분자로서 polypyrrole(PPy)과 poly(3-methylthiophene)(P3MT)을 이용하여 다공성 실리콘(PS) 요소 센서를 제작하고 각각의 특성을 전기화학적으로 분석하였다. Urease 고정화 전압, 고정화 시간, 고정화 시의 효소 농도, 수소이온 농도 등이 감도에 미치는 영향은 PPy 와 P3MT 각각의 경우 유사한 경향성을 보였다. 감도 특성의 경우, PPy는 다공질 실리콘 전극과 평면 전극 각각에 대하여 1.55 ${\mu}A/mM{\cdot}cm^2$와 0.91 ${\mu}A/mM{\cdot}cm^2$였고, P3MT의 경우는 각각 8.44 ${\mu}A/mM{\cdot}cm^2$와 4.28 ${\mu}A/mM{\cdot}cm^2$의 감도를 보였다. 즉, PPy가 P3MT 보다 일반적으로 높은 감도를 보였고, 다공질 실리콘 전극을 사용하는 경우, 그렇지 않은 경우보다 약 2배외 감도 향상 효과를 기대할 수 있었다. 재현성이나 안정성의 경우는 P3MT 가 PPy 보다 우수하였다. 사용 빈도에 따른 감도 저하는 다공질 실리콘 전극의 경우 직선적으로 감소하셨으나 평면 전극의 경우는 지수함수적으로 감소하였다 시간에 따른 감도 저하 현상은 만15일 이후의 감도를 기준으로 하여, 10% 미만의 감도저하를 보임으로써 PPy, P3MT 모두 우수한 특성을 보였다.
