DNA computing has used to solve MCP (Maximal Clique Problem). However, when current DNA computing is applied to MCP. it can't efficiently express vertices and edges and it has a problem that can't look for solutions, by misusing wrong restriction enzyme. In this paper we proposed ACO (Algorithm for Code Optimization) that applies DNA coding method to DNA computing to solve MCP's problem. We applied ACO to MCP and as a result ACO could express DNA codes of variable lengths and generate codes without unnecessary vertices than Adleman's DNA computing algorithm could. In addition, compared to Adleman's DNA computing algorithm, ACO could get about four times as many as Adleman's final solutions by reducing search time and biological error rate by 15%.

An MCP(Multi-chip Package) is a package consisting of several chips. Since several chips are stacked on the same substrate, multiple assembly steps are required to make an MCP. The characteristics of the chips in the MCP are dependent on the layer sequence. In the MCP manufacturing process, it is very essential to carefully consider the layer sequence in scheduling to achieve the intended throughput as well as the WIP balance. In this paper, we propose a scheduling methodology considering the layer sequence constraint.

가스장 이온원(GFIS: Gas Field Ionization Source)은 전자현미경보다 분해능이 향상된 이온현미경의 광원으로 사용하기 위하여 연구되고 있고, 큰 각전류 밀도, 작은 크기의 가상 이온원 그리고 좁은 에너지 퍼짐을 특징으로 한다. 여러 가지 장점을 가지고 있는 GFIS을 개발하기 위해서는 GFIS에서 발생된 이온빔의 형상을 관찰 것이 매우 중요하며, 이러한 관찰을 위한 시스템에는 주로 마이크로 채널 플레이트 (MCP: Micro Channel Plate)가 사용된다. MCP는 채널내부에 입사한 입자의 에너지에 의해서 생성된 이차전자를 수 천 배에서 수 백 만 배 이상 증폭시켜 형광판에 조사하고 발광시키는 방법으로 작은 신호를 영상으로 관찰 할 수 있도록 한다. MCP의 큰 증폭비는 작은 크기의 신호를 큰 신호로 증폭하여 관찰하는데 용이하여, GFIS 방법으로 생성된 이온빔(이온빔 전류 값은 pA 수준)을 관찰하기에 적합하다. 그러나 MCP를 이용하여도 증폭된 이온빔의 세기가 매우 작기때문에 생성된 이온빔 형상을 정확하게 관찰하기 위해서는 MCP의 형광판을 촬영하는 카메라 노출시간을 길게하여 데이터 수집 시간을 늘려야 하는 문제가 있다. 본 발표에서는 이온빔 형상 관찰에 소요되는 시간을 단축하기 위하여 MCP의 잡음이 GFIS의 이온빔 이미지 관찰에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 이를 제거 방법을 소개한다. 본 연구에서는 GFIS 방출 이온빔의 이미지에 포함된 MCP 잡음 특성을 장(전계)이온현미경 (Field Ion Microscope)실험을 통하여 분석하였고, 디지털 이미지 처리 방법을 이용하여 방출 이온빔 이미지에서 MCP 잡음을 제거하여 방출 이온빔 이미지만 추출할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방법을 GFIS 방출 이온빔 관찰시스템에 적용함으로써 기존 방법에 비해 노출시간을 단축하여 방출 이온빔을 관찰 할 수 있었으며, 노이즈 제거 효과로 향상된 이온빔 형상을 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구결과의 관찰시간 단축과 향상된 이온빔 형상 획득은 이온현미경 개발에 필수적인 단원자 이온빔을 보다 효율적으로 개발할 수 있으며 디지털 이미지 처리로 GFIS 이온빔 생성을 자동화하는데 응용할 수 있다. 더불어 기존방법에 비해 이미지 획득을 위한 MCP의 노출시간을 단축할 수 있으므로 실험장비 수명 단축 방지 및 관리에 큰 장점이 있다.

The responses of 'Tsugaru' apple and 'Baekhyang' peach fruits treated with 1-MCP, the ethylene inhibitor, were compared. In Tsugaru apple fruits, the reduction of flesh firmness and titratable acidity were significantly retarded for 2 weeks by the treating fruits with 1 or 5 ppm of 1-MCP immediately after harvest The respiration decreased continually for 2 weeks and the onset of ethylene production were also retarded severely. However, in Baekhyang peach fruits, the effects of 1-MCP treatment on the respiration and ethylene production were only transient and the firmness reduction was retarded slightly by the repeated 1-MCP treatments. The responsiveness of the Baekhyang peach fruits on ethylene seems to be recovered rapidly after 1-MCP treatment. In case of Baekhyang fruits, the 1-MCP should be treated repeatedly for effective ethylene inhibition, and the ethylene accumulation should be avoided during the 1-MCP treatment.

Asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) needs proper post-harvest treatment to prolong its storage life. This study investigated the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) on the quality and storage life of asparagus. Fresh-harvested asparagus was treated with 1-MCP ($1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$), CEPA($10mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$), and 1-MCP($1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$) + CEPA($10mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$) and compared with an untreated control. The carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) production, ethylene production, and morphological characteristics of the preserved asparagus were observed. The flow-system and the static-type measurement methods for ethylene and $CO_2$ production (respiration rate) were used. Weight loss, respiration rate, degree of freshness, and ethylene production were monitored during storage at $7^{\circ}C$. The results further showed that CEPA (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid) treatment had greater effects on $CO_2$ and ethylene production than using the 1-MCP process. The asparagus treated with CEPA or 1-MCP + CEPA had significantly increased the ethylene production rate compared to the control or using only 1-MCP during storage. There were no evident changes in the respiration rate of asparagus under 1-MCP treatment as compared with the control. Using the flow-system, slight differences in the rates of $CO_2$ and ethylene production were noted as compared to using the static type. Findings showed that in using the flow-system, asparagus manifested clearer results as compared with the static type. Weight loss in asparagus was significantly lower in control and 1-MCP treated samples than in those treated with CEPA. Likewise, the $CO_2$ and ethylene production of the CEPA treated samples significantly increased. The 1-MCP treatment reduced the effects of CEPA on weight loss, soluble solids content, and osmolality. The effect was not observed with exogenous ethylene as CEPA treatment had no visible effect as compared to the untreated group. Thus, 1-MCP treatment of asparagus could slightly reduce damage to the quality of asparagus during its distribution where ethylene gas is produced. Therefore, this study suggests that 1-MCP treatment can reduce the damage induced by ethylene gas on asparagus in poor distribution environments.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of 1-MCP, market temperature and combination treatment of freshing agent with 1-MCP on fruit quality of 'Hong Bak' peach (Prunus persica Batsch). The 1-MCP treatment at the rate of 1000ppb showed the best results in delaying the firmness loss and skin color development during shelf life without any detrimental effects on fruit quality. Moreover, positive effects of 1-MCP on fruit quality parameters were more significant in the fruits stored at $30^{\circ}C$ of high temperature shelf life than those of $20^{\circ}C$. The combination treatment of carbon ceramic with 1-MCP showed a beneficial effects including a prevention of firmness loss and maintaining external appearance during the five days of room temperature storage of 'Hong Bak' peach.

We investigated the effects of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment (0, 0.5, and 1.5 ppm) for 16 hours, followed by storage at ambient temperature, on the qualities of pears (Pyrus pyrifolia c.v. "Hwasan"). Color differences, as measured using the Hunter L, a, and b values, showed the greatest decreases before storage, and 8 weeks after storage, when fruit was exposed to 1.5 ppm 1-MCP. The sensory qualities of c.v. "Hwasan" pears were good until 4 weeks of storage after treatment with 0 ppm 1-MCP, until 6 weeks when 0.5 ppm 1-MCP was employed, and until 7 weeks when 1.5 ppm 1-MCP treatment was performed. Fruit and storage quality in terms of all of hardness, sugar content, PPO activity, respiration amount, and ethylene production increased in the 8 weeks after application of 1.5 ppm 1-MCP. Consequently, it seems that 1-MCP treatment, especially at 1.5 ppm, before storage of pears at ambient temperature, effectively improves the quality of pears of c.v. "Hwasan".

The quality attributes of tomato fruit ($Lycopersicon$ $Esculentum$ Mill.) to treatments with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) were studied. Harvested tomato fruit was treated one time at the initiation of storage or once-a-day during storage with $1{\mu}L/L$ 1-MCP at different storage temperatures, 12, 17, and $23^{\circ}C$. The results showed that both lower temperature and duration of 1-MCP treatment played an important role in ripening of tomato fruit. The once-a-day 1-MCP treatment was presented to be very effective in delaying quality changes of tomato fruit. The amount of chlorophyll and lycopene were measured to assess the impact of 1-MCP and temperature treatments on ripening, using a specific extinction coefficient absorbance technique. Storing tomato fruit at $12^{\circ}C$ resulted in a longer ripening period (color change) than tomato fruit stored at $17^{\circ}C$ and $23^{\circ}C$. 1-MCP treatment was very effective in retarding chlorophyll degradation and lycopene formation in the pericarp tissue of the tomato fruit at the different storage temperatures. The 1-MCP treatments affected the total chlorophyll content in different fruit tissues of the pericarp and placenta. Exposure of tomato fruit to 1-MCP gas at $12^{\circ}C$, using the once-a-day treatment, was highly effective in delaying pigment and color change.

Wind resource assessment is necessary when designing wind farm. To get the assessment, we must use a long term(20 years) observed wind data but it is so hard. so that we usually measured more than a year on the planned site. From the wind data, we can calculate wind energy related with the wind farm site. However, it calculate wind energy to collect the long term data from Met-mast(Meteorology Mast) station on the site since the Met-mast is unstable from strong wind such as Typhoon or storm surge which is Non-periodic. To solve the lack of the long term data of the site, we usually derive new data from the long term observed data of AWS(Automatic Weather Station) around the wind farm area using mathematical interpolation method. The interpolation method is called MCP(Measure-Correlative-Predict). In this study, based on the MCP Regression Model proposed by us, we estimated the wind energy at Handong site using AEP(Annual Energy Production) from Gujwa AWS data in Jeju. The calculated wind energy at Handong was shown a good agreement between the predicted and the measured results based on the linear regression MCP. Short term AEP was about 7,475MW/year. Long term AEP was about 7,205MW/year. it showed an 3.6% of annual prediction different. It represents difference of 271MW in annual energy production. In comparison with 20years, it shows difference of 5,420MW, and this is about 9 months of energy production. From the results, we found that the proposed linear regression MCP method was very reasonable to estimate the wind resource of wind farm.

This study was conducted to identify the effects of 1-MCP and the storage methods for maintaining the quality of asparagus spears. Asparagus spears treated 1-MCP stored in MA condition and perforated film (conventional condition) and 1-MCP non-treated used as control. The treated asparagus was stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 40 days. The fresh weight loss rate was less than 0.2% in all MA (Modified atmosphere) storage treatments, including the 1-MCP treatment, and 1-MCP shown the less fresh weight loss rate in perforated film storage after 20 days storage. The carbon dioxide concentration within a package was 5-12% in MA storage, which is whith the tolerated range of maximum $CO_2$ content of asparagus spears in recommended CA or MA conditions. The oxygen content was maintained between 5 to 15% in MAP treatments. The ethylene content was lowest at the MA storage with 1-MCP treatment. Visual quality, off-flavor, soluble solid contents, and hue angle on the final storage day were higher in MA storage and the 1-MCP treatment and conventional MA storage did not show any significant differences. These results suggest that the 1-MCP treatment did not significantly affected the quality and storability of asparagus spears.
