The exact performance simulation of propulsion system is a key element in the prediction of the aircraft performance. The specification performance analysis using the installed loss of KT-1 showed a large difference with the engine performance measured during the flight tests. This indicates that a method to estimate the more exact performance is needed. The study on the performance simulation with performance map correction along the engine operating line shows the good consistent results through all the flight conditions and engine conditions. The correction factors of the map were resulted from the comparative analysis between the flight test and the simulation of installed engine performance.

Simultaneous determination of crop protection agents(CPAs) in food are done with multi-residue methods, which are composed of sample clean-up, concentration, chromatographic separation and detection. Stir Bar Sorptive Extraction(SBSE) technique is used for sample preparation of various analytes in several fields. The aim of this study was to develop a sensitive and fast method based on SBSE followed by thermal desorption - gas chromatography - mass spectrometry(TD - GC/MS) to determine CPAs in tobacco sample. For the analysis of tobacco sample prior to the SBSE method, solvent extraction or ultrasound-assisted solvent extraction was performed. methanol was used as the extraction solvent. The extract was then diluted with water. Finally, the sample was subjected to SBSE. A method for fast screening of crop protection agents in tobacco using SBSE-TD - GC/MS has been developed. About 17 CPAs including organochlorine, organophosphorous and others were identified and quantified. This method showed good linearity and high sensitivity for most of the target CPAs. The method was applied to the determination of CPAs at ng/mL levels in tobacco sample. This method is simple, rapid and may be applied in detection of other components.

A matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) method was developed for extracting and cleaning-up the selected agrochemicals in tobacco using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring (GC/MS-SIM). Different parameters of the method were investigated and optimized, such as the type of solid-phase (alumina, $C_{18}$ and Florisil) and eluent (acetone, acetonitrile, ethylacetate and n-hexane). The best results were obtained using 0.5 g of tobacco sample, 1.0 g of $C_{18}$ as dispersant sorbent, 1.0 g of Florisil as clean-up sorbent and acetonitile saturated with n-hexane as eluting solvent. The method was validated using tobacco samples fortified with agrochemicals at their different concentration levels. This method gave good linearity for the selected agrochemicals of ranging from $0.01{\mu}g/mL$ to $0.1{\mu}g/mL$. Recoveries of the selected agrochemicals in tobacco were more than 80 % and reproducibilities were found to be better than 10 % RSD. Those results suggested that the analytical procedure including MSPD method in combining with GC/MS could be applicable to the rapid determination often the selected agrochemicals in tobacco.

The parcel wrapper for cigarettes has been used as the package and media materials for protection and design of product brands. The design of parcel wrapper has been contributed to the delivery of brand image and motivated consumer to purchase the brand. Therefore, the properties of parcel wrapper have been paid attention to highlight the design image, and increasing opacity of media materials has been one of the effective ways to obtain clear design on the paper surface. This study was carried out to improve the opacity of parcel wrapper for cigarettes. The effects of pulp composition and inorganic fillers in the furnish on the optical and mechanical properties were investigated. The use of hardwood in the stock preparation gave the increased opacity of paper than that of softwood. The application of higher refractive indices of fillers was effective to improve opacity. Brightness, tensile strength and stiffness were affected by the retained filler amount on the paper. Increase of filler contents decrease the tensile strength and stiffness due to the lesser bonding ability of fibers.

Tobacco plants absorb cadmium from soil and accumulate it in high concentrations in their leaves. Additionally, a significant portion of the cadmium contained in cigarettes passes into the smoke. Cadmium is known to be a toxic and carcinogenic compound that has harmful effects on the human body due to smoking. In this study, the concentrations of cadmium in the Ky3R4F reference cigarette and two commercial cigarettes were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Each cigarette sample was partitioned into a tobacco rod and filter and then analyzed in order to determine the concentration of cadmium. The concentrations of cadmium in the mainstream smoke, ash, residue, and cigarette butt were also analyzed after the cigarettes were smoked under ISO smoking conditions. Transfer rates of the cadmium from the tobacco rod to the mainstream smoke, ash, and cigarette butt were 0.8 ~ 5%, 17 ~ 22%, and 5 ~ 7%, respectively. As a result, we estimated that the sidestream smoke contained about 70% of the cadmium from the tobacco rod.

Let G be a simple graph and let $\={G}$ denotes its complement. We say that G is integral if its spectrum consists entirely of integers. If $\overline{aK_{a}\;{\bigcup}\;{\beta}K_{b}}$ is integral we show that it belongs to the class of integral graphs $[\frac{kt}{\tau}\;{x_0}\;+\;\frac{mt}{\tau}\;z}\;K_{(t+{\ell}n)+{\ell}m}\;\bigcup\;[\frac{kt}{\tau}\;{y_0}\;+\;\frac{(t\;+\;{\ell}n)k\;+\;{\ell}m}{\tau}\;z]n\;K_{em)$, where (i) t, k, $\ell$, m, $n\;\in\;\mathbb{N}$ such that (m, n) = 1, (n,t) = 1 and ($\ell,\;t$) = 1 ; (ii) $\tau\;=\;((t\;+\;{\ell}n)k\;+\;{\ell}m,\;mt)$ such that $\tau\;$\mid$kt$; (iii) ($x_0,\;y_0$) is a particular solution of the linear Diophantine equation $((t\;+\;{\ell}n)k\;+\;{\ell}m)x\;-\;(mt)y\;=\;\tau\;and\;(iv)\;z\;{\geq}\;{z_0}$ where $z_{0}$ is the least integer such that $(\frac{kt}{\tau}\;{x_0}\;+\;\frac{mt}{\tau}\;{z_0})\;\geq\;1\;and\;(\frac{kt}{\tau}\;{y_0}\;+\;\frac{(t+{\ell}n)k+{\ell}m}{\tau}\;{z_0})\;\geq\;1$.

A new phaC gene cluster encoding polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase I PHA depolymerase, and PHA synthase II was cloned using the touchdown PCR method, from medium-chain length (mcl-) PHA-producing strain Pseudomonas putida KT2440. The molecular structure of the cloned phaCl gene was analyzed, and the phylogenic relationship was compared with other phaCl genes cloned from Pseudomonas species. The cloned phaCl gene was expressed in a recombinant E. coli to the similar level of PHA synthase in the parent strain P. putida KT2440, but no significant amount of mcl-PHA was accumulated. The isolated phaCl gene was re-introduced into the parent strain P. putida KT2440 to amplify the PHA synthase I activity, and the recombinant P. purida accumulated mcl-PHA more effectively, increasing from 26.6 to $43.5\%$. The monomer compositions of 3-hydroxylalkanoates in mcl-PHA were also modified significantly in the recombinant P. putida enforcing the cloned phaCl gene.

The role of dialogue manager is to select proper actions based on observed environment and inferred user intention. This paper presents stochastic model for dialogue manager based on Markov decision process. To build a mixed initiative dialogue manager, we used accumulated user utterance, previous act of dialogue manager, and domain dependent knowledge as the input to the MDP. We also used dialogue corpus to train the automatically optimized policy of MDP with reinforcement learning algorithm. The states which have unique and intuitive actions were removed from the design of MDP by using the domain knowledge. The design of dialogue manager included the usage of natural language understanding and response generator to build short message based remote control of home networked appliances.

This paper presents a dialogue interface using the dialogue management system as a method for controlling home appliances in Home Network Services. In order to realize this type of dialogue interface, we first investigated the user requirements for Home Network Services by analyzing the dialogues entered by users. Based on the analysis, we were able to extract 15 user intentions and 22 semantic components. In our study, example dialogues were collected from WOZ (Wizard-of-OZ) environment to implement a reasoning model for generating meaningful responses for example-based dialogue modeling technique. An overview of the Home Network Control System using proposed dialogue interface will be presented. Lastly, we will show that the Dialogue Management System trained with our collected dialogues behaves properly to achieve its task of controlling Home Network appliances by going through the steps of natural language understanding, response reasoning, response generation.
