The purpose of this study is to analyse the diffusion process of personal computer (PC) in Korea during the 1990's. To achieve the goal, five research steps have been done such as the literature survey of diffusion theory, set-up of theoretic equilibrium model of supply and demand, derivation of an equilibrium path using Hamiltonian, and empirical analysis. The empirical analysis has been performed based on that equilibrium path. The results can be summarized as follows : First, technological attribute of diffusing product influences the diffusion speed of Product. It has been proven that the size of the network has a significant effect on the diffusion of PC in empirical study Second, supply factors have an important role in the diffusion process. According to the empirical analysis, decreasing cost of production as a result of technological advance promotes the speed of diffusion. This point seems to be manifest theoretically, but existing empirical models have not included supply factors explicitly, Third, it has been found out that expectation of decreasing cost would influence the speed of diffusion negatively as expected ex ante. Theoretically this result is supported by arbitrage condition of purchasing timing.

Numerical study on preferential diffusion effects in flame structure in $CH_4-H_2$ diffusion flames is conducted with detailed chemistry. Comparison of flame structures with mixture-averaged species diffusion and suppression of the diffusivities of $H_2$ and H was made. Discernible differences in flame structures are displayed with three species diffusion models. The behaviors of maximum flame temperatures with those species diffusion models are not explained by scalar dissipation rate but by the nature of chemical kinetics. It is seen that the modifcation of flame structure is mainly due to the preferential diffusion of H2 and thereby the nature of chemical kinetics. It is also found that the behaviors of major species with the three species diffusion models are addressed to the nature of chemical kinetics, and this is evident by examining importantly contributing reaction steps to the production and destruction of those chemical species.

Direct numerical simulations(DNS) were performed for the prediction of transient buoyant jet diffusion flames where the Froude numbers(Fr) are 5 and 160, respectively. The thermodynamic and transport properties were evaluated using CHEMKIN package to enhance the prediction performance of the DNS code. The simulated buoyant jet diffusion flame of Fr=5 and 160 showed the transient, dynamic motion well. It was identified that the buoyant jet flames were flickered periodically, and the simulated flickering frequency of the jet diffusion flame of Fr=5 was 12.5Hz, which was in good agreement with the experimental results. The flamelet structures of the buoyant jet diffusion flames could be well understood by comparing the scalar dissipation rates(SDR) and the heat release rates(HRR) of the flames. It was found that the SDR was strongly coupled with the HRR in the buoyant jet diffusion flames.

It is important to understand the process of IT diffusion between organizations for meeting effectively IT progress and its changes. The previous studies provide, the process of IT diffusion between organizational members, organizational factors facilitating the assimilation of IT within the organization, and the organizational members' usage of communication channels in the IT adoption process. But they failed to provide comprehensively the diffusion process of IT between organizations. Therefore, an empirical research through a field survey has been performed to examine the diffusion process of RDB with 64 companies to overcome the limits of the previous studies. The purpose of this study is (1) to empirically examine the interaction of companies(prior adopters and potential adopters), (2) to look into the differences of the factors of organizational structure and the periods of RDB adoption process between OAE(Organizations Adopting Earlier) and OAL(Organizations Adopting Later), and the importance of communication channels used in IT planning stage and adoption stage, (3) to inquire into the difference of RDB performance between OAE and OAL. The results of this study indicate that there is no interaction between the prior adopters and the potential adopters. Also, there are great significant differences with regards to variables of CEO's age, CEO's concern on IT, formalization, centralization compensation systems, CIO's attitudes on changes, RDB adoption periods, performance of RDB. In addition, interpersonal channels have been much more used than mass communication channels in both IT planning stage and adoption stage. This study provides good guidelines to the companies and the vendors in shaping the strategies of IT adoption and IT diffusion respectively.

Technology diffusion policy can be defined as the role of government in linking knowledge production with usage. It has an importance due to the fact that linking knowledge between the producing agent and using agent does not automatically occur. If knowledge produced by an R&D agent is not used by somebody else, the knowledge may deteriorate to a social loss since knowledge production consumes a considerable degree of social resources. Explicit technology diffusion policies are not found in Korea. There we, however, a number of implicit policies to promote technology diffusion, mainly by promoting cooperation among universities, industries and research institutes. Government R&D programs have provided incentives for cooperative research projects, and many government sponsored institutes have been assigned the role of technology assistance for small and medium sized firms. Nevertheless, diffusion policies remain weak in comparison to other innovation and technology policies. This is reflected in the relatively small scale of government support for technology diffusion programs. In addition, there is no systematic approach between the different ministries for enhancing diffusion across technologies, institutions, sectors and regions. A comprehensive evaluation of government diffusion programs, which is necessary for improving policy and program design, is lacking. Enhancing the diffusion of technology in Korea will require the strengthening of policies at different levels, including; 1) increasing the orientation of science and technology policies towards diffusion; 2) increasing the scale of existing diffusion programs; 3) developing new diffusion programs, in particular sector-specific or manpower training programs; 4) developing policies to encourage a culture of cooperation that can facilitate technology diffusion; and 5) carrying out substantial policy research to develop diffusion policies.

The effects of convection on the measurement of the diffusion coefficients of liquids by the pulsed gradient spin echo (PGSE) NMR method at low temperature are discussed. To examine the generation of convective flows, we used four different types of sample tubes in the diffusion measurements with temperature variation; a normal 5 mm NMR tube, a Shigemi tube, an ELISE type tube, and a capillary tube. Below room temperature, the calculated diffusion coefficients of chloroform in 5 mm o.d. type tubes increased with decreasing temperature, while those in the capillary tube decreased linearly. The convective flow was found to be significant even at low temperature and it seemed to be mainly induced by the transverse temperature gradient. It was also found that the capillary tube was most appropriate to measure the diffusion coefficients, since its small diameter is effective in suppressing the convective flows at both high and low temperatures.

Object-orientation has been proposed as a promising software process innovation to improve software productivity and quality. It has not been understood clearly, however, what factors influences the diffusion of object-oriented technology in organizations. A research model was formulated and hypotheses were generated based on the literature of information technology implementation and software process innovation. To test the research hypotheses, a questionnaire survey was conducted. The results based on 121 responses from Korean companies revealed that project characteristics, use of external experts, and number of development projects are significantly related to the diffusion of object-oriented analysis and design and object-oriented programming. Innovation champion is positively related to the diffusion of object-oriented analysis and design, whereas it is not related to the diffusion of object-oriented programming language. Only project complexity was significantly related to the diffusion of visual programming language. On the other hand, organizational size was not significantly related to any object-oriented technology in this study.

As it takes very long time for the Transient Liquid Phase(TLP) bonding, we tried to reduce the bonding time by changing insert material for the high diffusivity element. On this study boron powder was doped as a insert material on the bonding surface of Rene 80 superalloy, and diffusion treated at 1150.deg.C under vacuum. On this method differently from the TLP bonding the insert material was not melted during bonding but only the base metal reacted with the boron was inducedly melted. Therefore, as this bonding mechanism is different from the existing ones, it is suggested as a Melting Induced Diffusion Bonding. When this process was used for the diffusion bonding, the bonding time including homogenization decreased greatly compared to the conventional TLP bonding.

This work applies the equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation method to study a Lennard-Jones liquid thin film suspended in the vapor and calculates diffusion coefficients by Green-Kubo equation derived from Einstein relationship. As a preliminary test, the diffusion coefficients of the pure argon fluid are calculated by equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation. It is found that the diffusion coefficients increase with decreasing the density and increasing the temperature. When both argon liquid and vapor phases are present, the effects of the system temperature on the diffusion coefficient are investigated. It can be seen that the diffusion coefficient significantly increases with the temperature of the system.

Recently, it was reported that gaussian distribution and difference of two gaussians (DOG) to have band pass characteristics can be generated by simple iterative processes of the diffusion networks. In this paper, we propose method of improved implementation of a diffusion filter which can reduce total runing time, and operate by simple algorithm in contrast to the latest diffusion filter. We rebuild the diffusion network to a difference network which can generate DOG independently. Different filter characteristics are obtained just by each diffusion process and difference process. Quantitative analysis shows that the center frequency and the selectivity of each filter channel can be varied independently. Also, it would requires smaller amount of hardwares than conventioanl method to build a filter bank.
