In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), blanket (area) coverage analysis is generally carried to find the minimum number of active sensor nodes required to cover a monitoring interest area with the desired fractional coverage-threshold. Normally, the coverage analysis is performed using the stochastic geometry as a tool. The major component of such coverage analysis is the assumed sensing model. Hence, the accuracy of such analysis depends on the underlying assumption of the sensing model: how well the assumed sensing model characterizes the real sensing phenomenon. In this paper, we review the coverage analysis for different deterministic and probabilistic sensing models like Boolean and Shadow-fading model; and extend the analysis for Exponential and hybrid Boolean-Exponential model. From the analytical performance comparison, we demonstrate the redundancy (in terms of number of sensors) that could be resulted due to the coverage analysis based on the detection capability mal-characterizing sensing models.

A thin film of aluminum for ultra large scale integrated circuits metalization has been deposited on TiN and SiO$_{2}$ substrates by plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition using DMEAA (dimenthylethylamine alane) as a precursor. The effects of plasma on surface topology and growth characteristics were investigated. Thermal CVD Al could not be got continuous films on insulating subsrate such as SiO$_{2}$. However, it was found that Al films could be deposited on SiO$_{2}$ substate without any pretreatments by the hydrogen plasma for pyrolysis of DMEAA. Compared to the thermal CVD, PACVD films showed much better reflectance and resistance on TiN and SiO$_{2}$ substrate. We obtained mirror-like PACVD Al film of 90% reflectance and resistance on TiN and SiO$_{2}$ substrates. We obtained mirror-like PACVD Al film of 90% reflectance on TiN substrate. Excellent conformal step coverage was obtained on submicron contact holes ;by the PACVD blanket deposition.

Recent economic and income growth in Korea has caused people to seek healthier and happier lives. Forests are seen as spaces that provide tourism and recreation. The Korea forest service and local governments are developing and designating recreational forests but previous studies on the subject have only covered customer satisfaction and how forests are used. As such, the current study aims to find issues with designation criteria for recreational forests used by Gwangju city in Gyeonggi province and suggest improvements to the system. Site E was deemed the most adequate in evaluations of five candidate site. The criteria used in the evaluations were problematic due to (1) a lack of differentiating power in evaluation items, (2) blanket coverage of score ranges, (3) a lack of additional points for special sites, and (4) unclear evaluation indices. Based on the identified issues, the current study suggests introducing additional points and clearly detailing evaluation indices and items to enhance the evaluation of recreational forest candidate sites.
