  • This paper describes the development of an automated, hand-held sensor for the fast assessment of seafood freshness. The sensor developed here combined: an array-based chemical sensor, composed of incrementally different conducting polymer elements deposited on a small chip; a highly sensitive, custom-made electronics for the detection of very small signal changes; precise temperature control of the sensor chamber; and an on-board microcontroller for data collection, storage, automation, and analysis. The instrument was used to successfully test seafood samples with different degree of freshness and spoilage. A linear relationship between microbiological count and e-Nose signal for three different fish fillet was developed. Once the linear relationship is included into the hand-held unit software, the e-Nose signal can be used for assessment of seafood freshness without performing the microbiological count technique.

  • The many cities are changing in the city form where the person and nature are mixed. Namely, the government invests many expense in tree field of distance space for the change in the green city. In this paper, we design and implement a tree growth management system using PDA built in 13.56MHz RFID reader and CBD(Component Based Development) for ubiquitous computing environments. Our system provides history management to increase business efficiency for location coordinate of tree and history information of tree which using RFID, the RFlD tag is attaching the new tree and that is inputting GPS location information in PDA and provides tree information of tree by location coordinate to history management. Finally, we show from a performance analysis that our system achieves about 85% average tree read rate of RFID under test scenario environments.

  • 전자문서 환경에서의 annotation은 종이 문서 환경에 비하여 다양한 장점을 제공하기 때문에, 현재 웹 및 hand-held 환경을 기반으로 하는 여러 분야에서 응용 및 적용되고 있다. 한편 annotation 인터페이스 중 paper-like annotation interface (PLAi)는 직관적인 자유형 마킹 생성 및 최소의 작업 오버헤드 보장 둥의 장점을 제공한다. 그러나 현재의 annotation 시스템에서는 대부분 PLAi를 제외한 서로 다른 인터페이스를 사용하고 있으며 이는 모든 환경에 PLAi을 적용하기에는 기술적 혹은 사용성 측면에서 다수의 부정적인 요인을 포함하기 때문이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 데스크탑 및 hand-held 등과 같은 다양한 환경에서도 적용 가능한 PLAi를 제안하고자 하며, 특히 자유형 마킹에 대한 인식 및 보정 인터랙션이 지원되는 지능형 annotation 입력 인터페이스를 설계한다. 그 결과 제안된 인터페이스의 인터랙션 기법들은 다양한 환경에서도 PLAi의 장점을 최대한 지원할 수 있는 동시에, e-Learing, 전자교범, 온라인 교정, 전자도서관, 전자책 등의 분야에 적용 가능하다.

  • Iris diagnosis based on the color and texture information is one of a novel approach which can represent the current state of a certain organ inside body or the health condition of a person. In analysis of the iris images, there are critical image artifacts which can prevent of use interpretation of the iris textures on images. Here, we developed the iris diagnosis system based on a hand-held typed imaging probe which consists of a single camera sensor module with 8M pixels, two pairs of 400~700 nm LED, and a guide beam. Two original images with different light noise pattern were successively acquired in turns, and the light noise-free image was finally reconstructed and demonstrated by the proposed artifact removal approach.

  • As the demand for the detection of special nuclear materials (SNMs) increases, the use of imaging instruments that can sensitively image both gamma-ray and neutron signatures has become necessary. This study compared the pulse shape discrimination (PSD) performance of gamma/neutron events when employing either a pixelated stilbene or a plastic (EJ-276) scintillator array coupled to a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) array in a dual-particle imager. The stilbene array allowed a lower energy threshold above which neutron and gamma-ray events can be clearly distinguished. A greater number of events can, therefore, be used when forming both gamma-ray and neutron images, which shortens the time required to acquire the images by nearly seven times.

  • Recently, many web-enabled personal devices are becoming available for connecting to the internet, and there are many use]-s who access the internet from hand-held devices such as PDAs, cell phones. Most pages on the world wide web are designed for displaying on desktop computers with color monitor having at least 640$\times$480 resolution. But these devices do not have the same rendering capabilities as desktop computer, so the same web content needs to be rendered differently on hand-held devices. Therefore, there have been a variety of web transcoding techniques proposed to solve the problem between the web contents and hand-held devices. In this paper, we propose a web transcoding system(WebPrism) for real-time information providing using the semi-automatic transcoding method. The semi-automatic web transcoding method is a good solution when if mobile users access the limited number of web pages which layout is not changed frequently, also WebPrism is implemented as a desktop PC and experimental result shows that the proposed system generates the best looking document for a given display size of PDA.

  • In this paper, we compared the spatial peak SAR values measured with and without holding the hand-held phones to check the present recommended spatial peak SAR. To better understand the analysis of the SAR effect values, SAR is measured with hand phantoms, made and recommended for the use of Bar-type and Folder-type hand-held phones. The measured results have shown that use of the hand considerably reduces the spatial peak SAR value in a head phantom. We compared the spatial peak SAR values measured with and without accessories. To better understand the analysis of the effects of SAR values with accessories, SAR is measured with accessories composed of three kinds of earrings and glasses. The measured results proved in study that the spatial peak SAR value in a head phantom is not affected by the earrings but by the glasses. The glasses considerably increases the spatial peak SAR value in a head phantom while using Bar-type phones, although the effects are modest with Folder-type phones.
