For the comparison of feeding behavior of Nilaparvata lugens among different rice varieties, electrical penetration graph (EPG) technique was used. Ten rice varieties were selected from national-widely recommended rice varieties cultivating in Chungnam province. The correlation between feeding duration and honeydew amount excreted was investigated, and the types of EPG pattern were analyzed among rice varieties. The EPG patterns divided into 6 types according to electrical specific feature, respectively. Type 1 pattern was a searching feeding sites, resting or wandering on a rice plant. Type 2 pattern was appeared when the insect untaken from phloem sieve element. Type 3 pattern was observed when the insect piercing into the rice plant. Type 4 pattern was observed when the insect salivating in rice plant. Type 5 pattern was observed when the insect ingesting from the xylem. Type 6 pattern was observed when the stylet moving in cell. Feeding duration time on Gum-nam was significantly shorter than Dong-jin, Dae-ahn, Dong-ahn, Dae-san. Also, on Gun-nam, it was shown that the brown planthopper did not penetrate the cuticle for a long time. The total number of excreted honeydew droplets by the brown planthopper was the greatest in Dong-jin variety and the least in Gum-nam variety. In proportion to phloem feeding time, the number of honeydew droplets had been increased. According to the results of EPG patterns and honeydew droplets analysis, N. lugens seems to prefer Dong-jin, Dong-ahn, Dae-san, and Dae-ahn to Gum-nam, Da-san, and Nam-chun rice plant variety.

With the development of broadcasting technology from analogue to interactive digital, the number of TV channels and contents provided to audience is increasing in a rapid speed. In this multi-media and multi-channel world, it is difficult to adapt to the increase of TV channel numbers and their contents merely using remote controller to search channels. Due to this reason, EPG (Electronic Program Guide) has been one of the essential services providing convenience to audience. So EPG complying with European DVB-MHP specifications, which will be also our domestic standard, is proposed in this paper. In order to provide audiences with DiTV contents they preferred, we apply collaborative filtering algorithm to recommend contents according to preference value of audience group with similar preference. And we use JavaXlet application which is based on MHP to implement this EPG, while the result can be verified by OpenMHP emulator.

Digital TV broadcasting technology is recognized as a very encouraging technological development by koreans because of high-definition, multi-channel and interactive services which would broaden the viewers choice and promote people's prosperity. The technological development of digital TV service is a drastic change for people's convenience and would be a major media of‘e-government’in Korea. Digital TV Program UI will affect to people's esthetic sense and information efficiency. The information search pattern in TV is different from it of computer which has lead interactive media so far This research verifies the reasonable information display method through the usability test based on former related researches. For the case study, Interactive EPG design of SkyLife is selected and reviewed. This research includes the design development of interactive EPG of DVB-MHP.

In order to improve the cryopreservation by vitrification or slow freezing of nuclear transplant rabbit embryos, the effects of factors affecting embryo cryopreservation such as cryoprotectants, equilibration, cooling rate and post-thaw dilution on post-thaw survial and development were determined using intact embryos of morular stage. And the post-thaw development of nuclear transplanted embryos cryopreserved under the optimal conditions examined was compared between vitrification and slow freezing. The cryoprotectant solution used was ethyleneglycol-ficoll-sucrose (EFS) or ethyleneglycol-poly-vinylpyrrolidone-galactose- I (EPG- I ) for vitrification, and EPG- II for slow freezing. To examine the viability of frozen-thawed embryos, the nuclear transplanted embryos were co-cultured in TCM-199 plus 10% FBS with bovine oviduct epithelial cells(BOEC) for 24 hrs and the intact morulae were co-cultured with BOEC for 5 days and 3 days to hatching blastocyst stage in 39 ˚C 5% $CO_2$ incubator. The results obtained were as follows: Following vitrification with EFS, the post-thaw development of rabbit morulae to hatching blastocyst was significantly(P<0.05) higher in compacted stage(82.4%) than in early morular stage(60.0%). The post-thaw development of compacted morulae to hatching blastocyst was similarly high in vitrification with EFS(82.4%), EPG- I (85.0%) and in slow freezing with EPG- II (83.3%). Following vitrification with EPG- I, the post-thaw development of intact rabbit morulae to hatching blastocyst was similar as 78.0% and 85.0% in 1-step and 2-step post-thaw dilution, respectively. The post-thaw development of nuclear transplanted rabbit embryos of compacted morulae stage to hatching blastocyst was similarly 43.6% and 40.0% in vitrification with EPG- Iand slow freezing with EPG- II, respectively. These results indicated that the rabbit nuclear transplant and intact embryos of morulae stage could be well cryopreserved with either vitrification or slow freezing procedure.

Exo-polygalacturonase (EPG) from Rhizopus sp. was applied to the extraction of alginic acid from sea mustard to increase extraction yield. EPG digestion was examined under distinct conditions within temperatures from $25^{\circ}C$ to 5$0^{\circ}C$, pH 5 to 9, and treatment times from 0 to 36 hr. The optimal conditions fur alginic acid extraction with EPG were: pH 7.0 at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs. The EPG hot water extraction yield was 3.4 times higher yield than hot water extraction alone. Using EPG to extract alginic acid from sea mustard should be considered a viable alternative to conventional extraction, with the advantage of reducing hazardous wastes such as strong acid and alkali solutions.

The intervocalic Korean liquid sound has been recognized as a flap in the studies of the Korean language. But there has been very little experimental data corroborating it. The electropalatographic (EPG) experiment was conducted to test this. The subjects were one Korean speaker and one native English speaker who had a pseudopalate and did the EPG experiment at the UCLA phonetics laboratory. The spectrographic evidence of the flaps in both the English t-flap and the Korean liquid flap was also sought. The English and Korean flaps were between mid/low back vowels so that the vowels themselves would not affect palatal contacts of the tongue. The results confirmed that the Korean liquid is realized as a flap in intervocallical position with many similar properties to English flap in both EPG and spectrographic data. The Korean initial liquid sound in borrowed words such as 'rotary' and 'radio' was also a flap. But the Korean liquid in the word-final and geminate positions was a lateral as in words 'dol ' (stone), 'dollo' (with stone), 'nal' (day) and 'nallara' (carry). The intuitive theory of the Korean liquid flap was proved by the EPG and spectrographic data.

디지털 방송은 수많은 프로그램과 기존의 아날로그 방송에서 볼 수 없었던 다양한 서비스를 제공하며 발전하고 있다. 하지만 시청자들에게는 방송 서비스 채널과 기능이 많아질수록 원하는 채널을 검색하고 전환하는 과정이 어렵고 복잡한 일이 되어 버릴 수 밖에 없을 것이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 이러한 정보 획득과정의 축소를 위해 전통적인 리모콘으로 채널을 검색하고 이동하는 절차를 벗어나 음성인식을 통한 동적 EPG(Electronic Program Guide) 제어 시스템을 설계하고 구현하고자 한다. 이는 EPG정보와 시청자의 TV시청 성향 및 History를 기반으로 구동되는 시스템으로 음성대화의 구조적 정의가 가능한 VXML(VoiceXML) 인터프리터를 활용한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 대화형 인터페이스는 다양한 디지털방송 서비스에 접목이 가능 할 것이며, 새로운 형태의 디지털 가전기기 파일럿 인터페이스 개발에 도움이 될 것이라 기대한다.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-4 LASeR (Lightweight Application Scene Representation) 장면기술을 활용하여 효과적인 EPG(Electronic Program Guide) 서비스를 제공하는 방안을 제안한다. EPG는 텔레비전 방송 프로그램의 편성표를 텔레비전 화면상에 표시하는 것으로, 텔레비전을 시청하는 사람은 이 편성표를 통해 원하는 프로그램을 선택하거나 시간, 제목, 채널, 장르 등을 기준으로 원하는 프로그램을 검색할 수 있는 서비스를 말한다. 국제 표준 규격인 MPEG-4에는 장면의 동적인 업데이트를 위해 다양한 명령을 포함한 장면 서술정보를 제공 할 수 있는 LASeR 기술을 제공하고 있다. 특히, LASeR 표준은 구조화된 정보의 표현 및 수정 방법을 제공하기 위한 방법으로 PMSI (Presentation Method & Structured Information)를 제정하였으며, 해당 기술은 장면 서술정보에서 구조화된 정보의 일부분을 참조하여 장면에 효과적으로 표현하는 것을 가능하게 해 준다. 본 논문에서는 MPEG-4 LASeR PMSI를 기존의 텍스트 중심의 단순 EPG에 적용하여 텍스트 뿐만이 아닌 이미지 비디오 등의 멀티미디어 데이터를 활용하여 보다 동적으로 EPG 서비스를 제공하는 방법에 대하여 제안한다.
