In this paper, we present a texture description method as a standardization of multimedia contents description. Like color, shape, object and camera motion information, texture is one of very important information in the visual part of international standard (MPEG-7) in multimedia contents description. Current MPEG-7 texture descriptor has been designed to fit human visual system. Many psychophysical experiments give evidence that the brain decomposes the spectra into perceptual channels that are bands in spatial frequency. The MPEG-7 texture description method has employed Radon transform that fits with HVS behavior. By taking average energy and energy deviation of HVS channels, the texture descriptor is generated. To test the performance of current texture descriptor, experiments with MPEG-7 Texture data sets of T1 to T7 are performed. Results show that the current MPEG-7 texture descriptor gives better retrieval rate and fast and fast extraction time for texture feature.

Right comprehension of the natural disaster could reduce the damage of human life and property by explaining the cause of the disaster and considering a counterplan to decrease or prevent it. To do this, it should precede to clarify the category of the natural disaster and classification. Also, when the disaster occurs, swift site survey and the establishment of the data by the professionals should be done for clarifying the reason. Our classification of the natural disaster is written on the Law of the Nature Disaster Relief. But, this classification is made for the management of the disaster, so it is required to review the establishment of the technical information by the professionals. Therefore, the Korean type classification is required considered by the professionals who collect and study the information of the natural disaster for the other countries. If the DB of the natural disaster is made, it is able to get various services through the internet virtual space and it will be helpful to prepare the prevent countermeasures against the disaster. In this research, the korean type classification plan of the natural disaster is suggested which is suitable to the professional technology by collecting and analyzing the domestic and the international classification of the natural disaster.

This study examined the transdermal delivery of alendronate across hairless mouse skin. The effects of iontophoresis, perforation with a microneedle, and a combination of a microneedle pretreatment and iontophoresis were evaluated in vitro test. Hydrogel patches were polymerized by UN polymerization to supply a hydrogel patch to the iontophoretic transdermal drug delivery system. The alendronate content in the iontophoretic delivery patch was $5.0\;mg/cm^3$. The amounts of alendronate that permeated across the hairless mouse skin when current densities of 0.25 and $0.50\;mA/cm^2$ were supplied to the iontophoretic alendronate patch were $0.80{\pm}0.03$ and $2.00{\pm}0.02{\mu}g$, respectively. After pretreatment with a microneedle, the amounts of alendronate that permeated across the hairless mouse skin increased to $70.65{\pm}0.37$ and $162.23{\pm}0.40{\mu}g$, respectively. The biocompatibility of the iontophoretic alendronate patch was examined according to the international standardization organization 10993.

The Korea UK e-Science Collaboration project has been aimed at supporting research and collaboration between Korean and UK researchers. Its goal is to benefit the nation by reducing cost and time in constructing the National e-Science Research Environment' by studying and benchmarking the cases in countries that have already procured advanced technologies in the area. Two joint workshops were held in a year where researchers from the two countries had the opportunities to share their research results with each other. Also, the project has supported exchanges of researchers fostering expertise in the field. In the course of the project, the e-Science Centre in the UK and KISTI have signed MoU(Memorandum of Understanding) in 2006. Moreover, there have been active research collaboration between Korea and the UK. The University of Southampton will share the BioSimGrid data with the Korean counterpart, and the University of York has provided the AURA software. In the future, KISTI and the UK NGS(National Grid Service) will organize a working group at OGF that will work mainly on the standardization of Parameter Sweep and bring it to lead the global standard. KISTI will include its own AURORA system into OMI-UK software stack, which will enable access to NGS resources through AURORA user application. The collaboration with the UK has opened up more opportunities for collaboration with other countries as well. KISTI and HLRS in Germany have agreed to share the COVISE and will have research exchanges. As such, it is expected that Korea will play a major role in e-Science research by building strategic and systematic collaborative relations with its International partners.

The IVEF service is the draft standard designed for exchange of information on sea traffic between the vessel traffic systems and between the vessels. Standardization of this service is under way as a part of the next-generation navigation system, called e-Navigation. The International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) suggests, on its recommendation V-145, the IVEF service model and the protocol for provisioning of this service. But the detailed configuration of this service must be designed by the users. This study suggests, based on the basic service model and protocol provided in the recommendation V-145, the implementation of the J-VTS middleware which will facilitate exchange of information on sea traffic. The J-VTS middleware consists of various components for providing the IVEF service and for processing the IVEF message protocols. The vessel traffic systems and the vessels corresponding to upper-layer applications may use the IVEF service with the functions provided by the J-VTS middleware, and the services are designed to be accessed according to the security level of users.

The purpose of this paper is to offer policies or laws governing the future of Korean seafood markets in view of societal marketing concept. The environment surrounding those markets is changing quickly and constantly. The proposals in this paper are meant to help the Korean seafood market coping with this swiftly changing environment. This paper sorts this changing environment in terms of institutional side and secio-economical side. The institutional side involves the enforcement of international and domestic seafood trade standards, the increase of seafood importation, the adoption of optional seafood sales system, the openness of distribution market, and the adoption of TAC system. The secio-economical side involves the development of telecommunication and transportation, and the changing of seafood consumption pattern. The forecast about the future of seafood market could be classified into three fields, that is, the production field, the distribution field, and the consumption field of seafood. In the production field of seafood, the stabilization of supply of seafood and the production management oriented seafood market could be forecasted. In the distribution field, the formulating of enforced trade standards, the dispersion of marketing function among fisher, wholesaler and retailer, the development of marketing skills, and the promotion of marketing information system could be forecasted. Finally, in consumption field, the promotion of standardization and diversification, the appearance of intellectual consumers could be forecasted. This paper seeks to offer policies or laws fur the three categories of the seafood market-the government, the fisher, and the distributor-coping with the changing environment on the above three fields, thereby benefiting the consumer's long-term welfare. For the government, this paper suggests the construction of a Seafood Transaction Information Infrastructure, a Seafood Dealer License System, and a Seafood Safety Security System. For the fishers, this paper proposes an Eco-labelling System, a Sustainable Production System, and a Real Naming System in dealing seafood. Finally, for the distributors, this paper offers a Seafood Production Controlling System, a Nature-friendly Marketing System, and a Consumer-oriented Marketing System.
