This study was performed to show criteria of a National Ecological Network (NEN) for South Korea and it was a part of a study of ecological network for broad areas on national land showed by Ministry of Environment of Korea. After 1970s, many european countries presented methods and criteria not on individual protected area but on networking among many habitats. The PEEN (Pan European Ecological Network) and NATURA 2000 are results of those. In South Korea, concepts and mapping metheods of ecological network was studied but those were not applied to the whole national land because the equality and local specialities were not reflected. So, in this study, we presented the criteria composed of forest, river, wildlife and coastal evaluation items in conservation ecology and showed the mapping method which can applied to the national land. After the evaluation on land area which composed of forest, river and wildlife axis. Core areas were $30,616km^2$, buffer zone were $21,870km^2$ and each accounted for 31% and 22% of the national land. Except for Taebaeck-Gangwon region, whole region's core areas were accounted for 20~30% of it and buffer zone were accounted for 20~25% of it, so these can be applied to the national land with equality and local specialities. Forest axis and river axis were clearly linear and connected, but the wildlife axis was dispersed in point form. Therefore, to apply the NEN, a detailed habitat map is important and the interconnected implementation of forest, river, wildlife, and coastal axis is required.

Local government with abundant natural resources should consider the nature conservation oriented planning process for the sustainable development. With this regard, the aim of this study is to provide a substantial methodology to support the decision-making process to designate the conservation areas. The objectives of the proposed methodology is to conserve natural resources in the local government's territory through quantitatively assessing the values of the natural resources based on various ecological factors such as topography, flora and fauna. In order to test the usability of the method, Gangneung City in Kangwon-Do is selected considering the latest data availability. Based on the assessment process land use of the subjected city could be categorized into 4 levels of conservative area, conservative level 1 area, conservative level 2 area, and conservative level 3 area. Among them, conservative area and conservative level 1 area could be combined as natural resources conservation area and the others could be regarded as buffer and transitional area. Especially conservation area is surrounded by conservation level 2 area. Conclusively, the GIS methods adopted in this could be the efficient illustrative tool to assess the local natural resource values with the central government established nature-environmental information systems.

Calcinated alunite powder (surface area 5100 $cm^2/g$) was found to react with well stirred ammonium buffer solution (pH 8.0) following Jander's equation. The rate constants increase with the amount of solid and temperature of reaction system. The energy of activation for the reactions (at $30{\sim}60^{\circ}C$) was 15.7 kcal/mole. The rate-determining step appears to involve ionization of alunite.

The scope of the matrix application is so broad that it can not be limited. A typical matrix application area in computer science is image processing. Particularly, radar scanning equipment implemented on a small embedded system requires real-time matrix transposition for image processing, and since its memory size is small, a general matrix transposition algorithm can not be applied. In this case, matrix transposition must be done in disk space, such as flash disk, using a limited memory buffer. In this paper, we analyze and improve a recently published flash disk-based matrix transposition algorithm named as asymmetric sub-matrix transposition algorithm. The performance analysis shows that the asymmetric sub-matrix transposition algorithm has lower performance than the conventional sub-matrix transposition algorithm, but the improved asymmetric sub-matrix transposition algorithm is superior to the sub-matrix transposition algorithm in 13 of the 16 experimental data.

In this paper, we propose a Special Memory for Graphics(SMGRA) which accelerates memory access time for graphics operations. The SMGRA has a rectangular array memory architecture which has already proposed by Whelan to process pixels in the rectangle area simultaneously, but the SMGRA should improve address decoding time and reduce the number of address pins by using address multiplexing scheme. The SMGRA has a Z-value comparator in the DRAM which is to convert read-modify-write Z buffer into single-write only operation that improves approximately 50% frame buffer access bandwidth.

When Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network(BISDN) becomes commercially available In public network, conventional Local Area Network(LAN)s will still be in use. The first wide spread application for B-ISDN will be the interconnection of LANs. The equipment providing the connection between the LAN and the BISDN will be given the general name Inter Working Unit(IWU). We addresses the congestion problem of many interworking issues. In this paper, Our study is concentrated on applying connectionless network protocol for interworking. We suggest a rate control method in the network layer to prevent a buffer overflow in the IWU. Since this rate control method can be applied to prevent buffer overflow in a congested IWU, We investigate the use of rate control to solve congestion problems of IWU and parallize network layer with rate control to lessen the congestion problem in IWU.

This paper presents a 4-channel common-cathode VCSEL driver array operating up to 6.25 Gb/s per channel for the applications of HDMI 2.0 active optical cables. The proposed VCSEL driver consists of an input buffer, a modified Cherry-Hooper amplifier as a pre-driver, and a main driver with pre-emphasis to drive a common-cathode VCSEL diode at high-speed full switching operations. Particularly, the input buffer merges a linear equalizer not only to broaden the bandwidth, but to reduce power consumption simultaneously. Measured results of the proposed 4-channel VCSEL driver array implemented in a $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS process demonstrate wide and clean eye-diagrams for up to 6.25-Gb/s operation speed with the bias current 2.0 mA and the modulation currents of $3.1mA_{PP}$. Chip core occupies the area of $0.15{\times}0.1{\mu}m^2$ and dissipate 22.8 mW per channel.

$\beta$-Lactam antibiotics such as penicillin G, amoxicillin, and ampicillin were determined by a potentiometric biosensor system which exploited penicillinase immobilized on Immobilon cellulose nitrate membrane and a flat-bottomed pH electrode-as the biological component and transducer. The optimum reaction buffer for maximum sensitivity was found as 2 mM of sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.2). The detection limit of the biosensor could be extended to 1 $\mu{M}$ of the analytes by increasing the enzyme loading for immobilization to 100 units/$m\ell$. The model samples spiked with each of the standard penicillins were measured for their biosensor responses and HPLC peak area, resulting in the relative responses of 82.1-103.5% and 79.5-106.1% for the biosensor method along with HPLC analysis, respectively. This result showed a good precision of the current biosensor method for screening the penicillin compounds.

A new approach concurrent transistor sizing and buffer insertion for low power optimization is proposed in this paper. The method considers the tradeoff between upsizing transistors and inserting buffers and chooses the solution with the lowest possible power and area cost. It operates by analyzing the feasible region of the cost-delay curves of the unbuffered and buffered circuits. As such the feasible region of circuits optimized by our method is extended to encompass the envelop of cost-delay curves which represent the union of the feasible regions of all buffered ad unbuffered versions of the circuit. The method is efficient and tunable in that optimality can be traded for compute time and as a result it can in theory near optimal results.

BaZrO$_3$and SrTiO$_3$(STO) thin films were Pulsed laser deposited on biaxially textured Ni and Ni-W alloy substrates to be used as single buffer layer for coated conductor. The texture of the films were analysed using the GADDS (general area detector diffraction system). Both films deposited on the metal tape were strongly (001) oriented, and in-plane textured (Δø (BZO) =9$^{\circ}$, Δø (STO) = 10$^{\circ}$).
