In this study, the infiltration quantity of fine-grained soil into coarse-grained soil or aggregate for methods to accelerate consolidation drainage is checked by laboratory tests under various conditions and those characteristics on infiltration are examined closely. Irrespectively of pressures to fine-grained soil corresponding to stresses in a soil mass or moisture contents of fine-grained soil, fine-grained soil does not infiltrate into standard sand and marine sand, so it is verified that drain-resistance into sand mass of drainage / pile does not occur entirely and its shear strength would increase highly by water compaction. It is known that the infiltration depth of fine-grained soil into aggregate increases according that those size is larger in case of aggregates and it increases according that the pressure or the moisture contents is higher in case of same size aggregate. It is thought that drain-resistance into aggregate mass of drainage / pile would occurs by infiltrated fine-grained soil in advance though the infiltration depth of fine-grained soi of lower moisture content than liquid limit into 13 mm aggregate is low quietly. So gravel drain method or gravel compaction pile method, etc. using aggregate of gravels or crushed stones, etc. larger than sand particle size should be not applied in very soft fine-grained soil mass of higher natural moisture contents than liquid limit, and it is thought that its applying is not nearly efficient also in soft fine-grained soil mass of lower natural moisture contents than liquid limit.

Purpose: A large number of attributes with mixed levels are often considered in the conjoint analysis. The respondents may have difficulty with scoring their preferences accurately because of many attribute items involved in each survey question. We research on the technique for reducing the number of attribute items. Methods: In order to reduce the number of attribute items in a survey question, we make a new attribute by merging two original attributes. A 'No question' option is also included as a new level in a merged attribute. Results: We propose BIB $6^4$ design in the case where we have four attributes with 2 levels and 3 levels, respectively and then analyze all the respondents survey data generated by the repeated simulation study in order to compare various model selection methods. Conclusion: How to reduce the number of attribute items is proposed and how to design and analyze the survey data are illustrated.

In this paper, we proposed a register allocation algorithm and resource allocation algorithm in the high level synthesis process for the SoC design synthesis system of high performance vehicles We have analyzed to the operator characteristics and structure of datapath in the most important high-level synthesis. We also introduced the concept of virtual operator for the scheduling of multi-cycle operations. Thus, we demonstrated the complexity to implement a multi-cycle operation of the operator, regardless of the type of operation that can be applied for commonly use in the resources allocation algorithm. The algorithm assigns the functional operators so that the number of connecting signal lines which are repeatedly used between the operators would be minimum. This algorithm provides regional graphs with priority depending on connected structure when the registers are allocated. The registers with connecting structure are allocated to the maximum cluster which is generated by the minimum cluster partition algorithm. Also, it minimize the connecting structure by removing the duplicate inputs for the multiplexor in connecting structure and arranging the inputs for the multiplexor which is connected to the operators. In order to evaluate the scheduling performance of the described algorithm, we demonstrate the utility of the proposed algorithm by executing scheduling on the fifth digital wave filter, a standard bench mark model.

Bacillus polyfermenticus KJS-2 (Bp2) was isolated from $Bispan^{(R)}$, a commercially available probiotics consisting of more than 4 strains. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of three-layer coating on the stabilty of Bp2. Bp2 was microencapsulated with sodium alginate using an air atomizer. The Bp2 loaded pellets were also coated with HFP-chitosan and HPMCP for oral delivery system. When compared to the uncoated Bp2, the survival of the three-layer coated Bp2 increased to approximately 63% (p<0.01) in a 30% ethanol solution, 54% (p<0.05) in an artificial gastric juice (pH 2), and 53% (p<0.05) in the bile acid (pH 5). When coated beads were stored at $100^{\circ}C$ and $130^{\circ}C$, Bp2 in coated beads was very stable (p<0.01) compared to uncoated Bp2.

In this paper, we proposed the development of a mixed sensor parts for integrated radiation exposure protection fireman's life-saving alarm that can be location-tracked and irradiated. To measure radiation exposure dose, we use the PIN-Diode radiation measurement sensor module, a semi-conductive radiation measurement sensor that can minimize size and weight. The design for removing leakage current is carried out to enhance the characteristics of the radiation measurement sensor using PIN-Diode. The IMU sensor module is used to estimate the location of the current fireman at the same time as the accident estimate by adding together the data and the values for acceleration on the three axis. Experiments were conductied by an authorized testing agency to determine the efficiency of the proposed mixed sensor parts for integrated radiation exposure protection fireman's life-saving alarms. The cumulative dose measurement range was measured in the range of 10 μSv to 10 mSv, the highest level in the world. The accuracy was measured from ±6.3% to ±9.0% (137 Cs) and normal operation was found at the international standard of ±15%. In addition, positional accuracy was measured within ±10%, resulting in a high level of results, demonstrating its effectiveness. Therefore, it is expected that more firemen will be able to provide with superior performance integrated radiation exposure protection fireman life-saving alarm.

The CBD(component based development) method has recently been on the rise as the main current among all fields of developing Information Systems. The developing system by building and integrating of components is encouraged in GIS sphere. Business domain which considerably identifies components occupies GIS shpere rather then any other sphere. Arithmetic function is quite needed in GIS sphere but non-arithmetic functions are also used in GIS sphere as well as in enterprise sphere. Component is characterized by ensuring the reuse of itself. The efficiency of reusing component is promoted as the component is functionally simple and is packed to a minimum. The GIS Component Extraction Method has already been presented in several studies but this study is about the GIS Component Extraction by the Affinity Analysis Method. CBD uses UML on a basis and the core of the UML is consisted of the use case and the class. The purpose of the Affinity Analysis is a study how relate between the use case and the class in a certain business domain and then the results identify the component. The Affinity Analysis is useful not only in GIS but also in every business domain and is considered to be popular as the procedure of this method is not complex at all.

To interpret the seismic image precisely, random noises should be suppressed and the continuity of the image should be enhanced by using the appropriate smoothing techniques. Structure-Oriented Filter-Edge Preserving (SOF-EP) technique is one of the methods, that have been actively researched and used until now, to efficiently smooth seismic data while preserving the continuity of signal. This technique is based on the principle that diffusion occurs from large amplitude to small one. In a continuous structure such as a horizontal layer, diffusion or smoothing is operated along the layer, thereby increasing the continuity of layers and eliminating random noise. In addition, diffusion or smoothing across boundaries at discontinuous structures such as faults can be avoided by employing the continuity decision factor. Accordingly, the precision of the smoothing technique can be improved. However, in the case of the structure-oriented semblance technique, which has been used to calculate the continuity factor, it takes lots of time depending on the size of the filter and data. In this study, we first implemented the SOF-EP method and confirmed its effectiveness by applying it step by step to the field data. Next, we proposed and applied the corner response method which can efficiently calculate the continuity decision factor instead of structure-oriented semblance. As a result, we could confirm that the computation time can be reduced by about 6,000 times or more by applying the corner response method.

IMRT optimization method on multiple slice has been developed by using gradient based algorithm. On about 10-30 CT slices including treatment region of a patient, dose optimization has been performed slice by slice to meet the condition that each organ should be exposed below maximum tolerable doses and that the tumor dose within the range of 100$\pm$5 %. Field size was limited to 8$\times$8 cm$^2$ and in this condition, beam divergence was not taken into account to calculate dose distribution. Total dose distribution was calculated by superposing each beamlet whose dose distribution had been precalculated. In order to investigate beam number dependency, dose optimization was performed for one, three, five, seven, and nine coplanar beams and then each optimization index was evaluated. It is found that optimization time was proportional to number of slices to be optimized, and the most efficient plan was obtained from the case of three-to-seven incident beams with respect to calculation time and optimization index. In conclusion, dose optimization of multiple slice was able to be obtained by repeating dose optimization of single slice under condition that the beam size is not too large to ignore beam divergence. And it turns out that result of dose optimization was so sensitive to the position of isocenter that some method to optimize isocenter position is needed to improve it.
