The purpose of this study was to investigate the analysis on the pattern and proposition process of science inquiry problems proposed by elementary school general students and science-gifted ones. The science inquiry problems were composed of one quantitative problem and one qualitative problem. To conduct this study, general students and science-gifted ones of grade 4 and 5 in elementary schools were selected. The results of this study were as follows. In both quantitative and qualitative problem, most of the students, including all the sciencegifted students and general ones, used N-IP pattern and S2 proposition process strategy to propose inquiry problems. In the relationship between proposed problem and proposition process strategy, when using S2 strategy, N-IP problems were chiefly proposed. And when using S2, S3 strategies, more patterns of inquiry problems were generated than using any other strategies. Drawing proposition processes of inquiry problem into map, science-gifted students used much more proposition process strategies than general ones.

FPGA는 대용량의 게이트를 지원하는 하드웨어를 프로그램 할 수 있는 디바이스이다. ASIC을 위해 설계된 로직은 칩으로 제조되기 전에 검증 과정을 거친다. 이 검증 과정에서 시뮬레이션의 한계를 극복하기 위해 FPGA를 사용한 에뮬레이션 방법을 많이 채택한다. 에뮬레이션 과정에서 ASIC의 동작 속도로 검증하는 것이 바람직하지만 FPGA의 특성상 ASIC과 같은 속도로 동작하기는 쉽지 않은 것이 현실이다. 본 논문에서는 HDL 코딩 방법에 따른 FPGA의 성능 민감도를 실험하였다. 실험 및 평가를 위해 다양한 알고리즘을 가진 가산기를 이용하였고 각 가산기 종류와 비트수에 따라 Verilog-HDL을 이용하여 코딩하였으며 대표적인 FPGA 제조사(Altera와 Xilinx)별, 디바이스별로 동작 속도와 자원 사용량을 측정하였다. 실험 결과 FPGA 제조사별로 다른 경향을 보임을 확인하였다. 성능 면에서는 비트별로 다소 차이는 있지만 Altera 디바이스에서는 Ripple Carry, Carry Lookahead 가산기보다 Prefix 가산기의 성능이 우수하게 나왔다. Xilinx 디바이스에서는 예상과 달리 가산기들 사이의 성능 차이가 크게 나지 않았으며 Ripple Carry, Carry Lookahead 가산기가 Prefix 가산기보다 높은 성능을 보이는 경우도 있었다. 비용 면에서는 디바이스별로 큰 차이가 나지 않았으며 ASIC과 비슷한 성능 민감도를 보였다. 그리고 각 제조사에서 제공하는 IP(Intellectual Property) Core를 사용했을 경우는 대부분의 디바이스에서 우수한 성능을 보여 주었다. TSMC 90nm 공정 기술로 제작한 ASIC과 IP Core를 비교했을 때는 ASIC의 성능이 4배 정도 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

Storm sudden commencements (SSCs) occur due to a rapid compression of the Earth's magnetic field. This is generally believed to be caused by interplanetary (IP) shocks, but with exceptions. In this paper we explore possible causes of SSCs other than IP shocks through a statistical study of geomagnetic storms using SYM-H data provided by the World Data Center for Geomagnetism - Kyoto and by applying a superposed epoch analysis to simultaneous solar wind parameters obtained with the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) satellite. We select a total of 274 geomagnetic storms with minimum SYM-H of less than -30nT during 1998-2008 and regard them as SSCs if SYM-H increases by more than 10 nT over 10 minutes. Under this criterion, we found 103 geomagnetic storms with both SSC and IP shocks and 28 storms with SSC not associated with IP shocks. Storms in the former group share the property that the strength of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), proton density and proton velocity increase together with SYM-H, implying the action of IP shocks. During the storms in the latter group, only the proton density rises with SYM-H. We find that the density increase is associated with either high speed streams (HSSs) or interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs), and suggest that HSSs and ICMEs may be alternative contributors to SSCs.

Thermomechanical and shape memory properties of dicumyl peroxide(DCP) cured semicrystalline EPDM($Nordel^{(R)}$ IP) were investigated. From gel content analysis, it can be seen that Nordel can be crosslinked by small amount of DCP and the degree of crosslinking increased with the increase of DCP content. DSC analysis revealed that the melting temperature and degree of crystallinity of the crosslinked rubber decreased with the increase of DCP. Tensile test showed that tensile modulus increased and elongation at break of the rubber decreased with an increase in the degree of cross linking. The chemically crosslinked semi-crystalline EPDM exhibited excellent shape memory behavior, i.e. the sample was easily deformed to have an arbitrary secondary shape above its melting temperature and was fixed well in its deformed state when it is cooled, and then the fixed shape was recovered to its original shape very fast upon heating above its melting temperature.

In accordance with the development of information and communications technology, a network user has to be able to use quality of service (QoS)-based multimedia services easily. Thus, information and communications operators began to focus on a technique for providing multimedia services. The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a platform based on Internet Protocol (IP) as a technology for providing multimedia services and application services. The emerging 5G networks are described as having massive capacity and connectivity, adaptability, seamless heterogeneity, and great flexibility. The explosive growth in network services and devices for 5G will cause excessive traffic loads. In this paper, software-defined networking (SDN) is applied as a kind of virtualization technology for the network in order to minimize the traffic load, and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used to provide more efficient network management. To accomplish these purposes, we suggest the design of a dynamic routing algorithm to be utilized in the IMS network using SDN and an SNMP private management information base (MIB). The proposal in this paper gives information and communications operators the ability to supply more efficient network resources.

In engineering education practical experiments is very important for each student, but due to the limitation of time and available resources such as laboratory equipment, space and instructors enough hands-on real experiments could not be provided to all students enrolled in the program throughout the academic year. In this sense web-based remote experiments through internet become a solution for engineering education and an emerging new paradigm for students and teachers. This paper presents the development of the web-based remote vibration experiment system for mechatronics education. Students can access this experimental equipment through an internet and conduct vibration experiment remotely without any restriction on time and place. IP address for data communication and web-service are assigned in local computer and then students receive experimental results and the captured pictures using network. The developed system provides real-time feedback of the tested results. Ubiquitous access to the system gained popularity from students.

The IP Multimedia Subsystem(IMS) is an architectural framework for delivering IP multimedia services to mobile users. In order to guarantee the reliability and Quality of Service(QoS) of a variety of multimedia services, we need a new evolutionary approach that maintains the IMS based signaling platform which can perform the processing of flow through distributed controllers. Software Defined Network(SDN) is an architecture purporting to be distributed, dynamic, cost-effectives as well as adapting and seeking to be suitable for the high-bandwidth, dynamic nature of today's applications. It requires some methods for the control plane to communication with the data plane. One of such mechanisms is OpenFlow which is a prominent standard protocol and interface that is responsible for managing the network resources by using the remote SDN controller. In this paper, we propose a straightforward approach for integrating SDN technology together with the IMS architecture. Therefore we propose and construct a combined architecture model that performs flow processing using OpenFlow via the IMS based signaling platform, which maintains the existing telecom call service. Additionally, we describe some relevant experimentation results from the proposed architecture.

In this paper, we implemented an wireless remote control and monitoring system by using Globalstar satellite modem. This system is composed of the data terminal equipment of Globalstar data communication system using microcontroller, C8051F023, and WGIS(Web-based GIS) user program. We tested the wireless remote control and monitoring system with data terminal equipment and user program how to work properly, and verified that the user could confirm the data from the data terminal equipment, which can provide the status of input/output devices and the information of location with the main and control dialog by GIS(Geographic Information System) program. For data communication of between data terminal equipment and user program, we programed PPP and TCP/IP protocol to communicate with each other. Some GIS tools used in this program are ArcView and MapObject from ESRI to offer various visual mapping information to the user.

The study aims to assess the acceptance of social commerce and participate in social commerce amongst Omani people. The questions of the survey Instrument were prepared in English later converted into Arabic. The survey instrument was having two parts; the first part sought the demographic information like age, gender, education, occupation etc. The second part of the instrument was related to the variables, which was in 5-point Likert scale, where 5 means strongly agree while 1 meaning strongly disagree. The data was collected using online and offline surveys, making the number of the valid responses to 478. A conceptual model was developed using the following variables. The selected variables such as "Familiarity" (F), "Trust" (T), "Perceived usefulness" (PU), "Perceived ease of use" (PEU), "Intention to Purchase" (IP). The hypothesis was tested using structural equation modelling. The results indicate that all six hypotheses were supported. The F, T and PEU, and PU was found to be positive and significant related to intention to purchase (p-value 0.003, 0.001, 0.000. & 0.007). Amongst the four, p value of F was found to be the lowest and PU was found to be the highest. This indicate F was strong indicator of IP as compared to others. PUE relates to PU, and F was related to IP.

위성이나 케이블을 통해서 이루어지던 유료 방송 서비스가 최근에는 IPTV 라는 이름 아래 인터넷을 통해서 이루어지고 있다. IP 네트워크를 통해 콘텐츠가 전송되면서 네트워크의 대역폭을 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 멀티캐스트를 통해 이루어진다. 멀티캐스트는 IP 환경에서 동일한 내용의 데이터를 여러명의 특정한 그룹의 수신자에게 동시에 전송하는 것을 말하며, 이때 그룹을 관리하기 위해 인터넷 그룹 관리 프로토콜(Internet Group Management Protocol, IGMP)이 사용된다. IGMP에는 접근제어와 같은 보안 기능을 제공하지 않고 있으며, IPTV와 같은 유료 방송 서비스에서는 멀티캐스트를 통해 전송 되는 콘텐츠를 보호하기위해 접근제어시스템(Conditional Access System, CAS)을 사용한다. 그러나 CAS를 통해 콘텐츠를 보호 하더라도, IGMP에는 보안 기능이 없다는 근본적인 문제에 의해 사용자의 TV 시청을 방해할 수 있다는 가능성이 남아있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 CAS가 운영되면서 교환된 키를 사용해 IGMP메시지에 보안기능을 추가한 기법을 제안한다.
