Biological nitrate removal from groundwater was investigated in the biofilters packed with both gravel/sand and plastic media. Removal of particles and turbidity were also investigated in the 2-stage biofilter system consisted of biofilter and subsequent sand filter. In the single biofilter packed with gravel and sand, nitrate removal efficiency was dropped with the increase of filtration velocity and furthermore, nitrite concentration increased up to 3.2 mg-N/L at 60 m/day. Denitrification rate at the bottom layer below 25 cm was faster 8 times than upper layer in the up-flow biofilter. Nitrite build-up, due to the deficiency of organic electron donors, occurred at the upper layer of bed. Besides DO concentration and organic carbon, contact time in media was the main factor for nitrate removal in a biofilter. The most of the effluent particles from biofilter was in the range from 0.5 to $2.0{\mu}m$, which resulted in high turbidity of 1.8 NTU. However, sand filter followed by biofilter efficiently performed the removal of particles and turbidity, which could reduce the turbidity of final filtrate below 0.5 NTU. Influent nitrate was removed completely in the 2-stage biofilter and no nitrite was detected.

This paper is to explore the effects of Robot Based Instruction(RBI) on improving immersion learning. According to our research, we found out that there is significant improvement in learning immersion and there's 9 sub-factors score after RBI was applied. Also from the result that there is no significant difference between male and female students in learning immersion score, we can found that RBI can improve the learning immersion of students regardless of the learner's sex. The result of verification on the learning immersion is difference by subjects showed that there is significant improvement only in korean, science, art subject among 7 subjects. The above-mentioned results are based on as follows two reasons. First, RBI is efficient to improve students' internal motivation and ownership about tasks, and that is related to environment of learning and instruction focused on authentic task and practice. Second, educational advantages of robot media was reflected appropriately in RBI, also appropriate instructional environment for RBI was supported.

As an organization or organization grows in size, many different types of data are being generated in different systems. There is a need for a way to improve efficiency by processing data smarter in different systems. Just like DataLake, we are creating a single domain model that accurately describes the data and can represent the most important data for the entire business. In order to realize the benefits of a DataLake, it is import to know how a DataLake may be expected to work and what components architecturally may help to build a fully functional DataLake. DataLake components have a life cycle according to the data flow. And while th data flows into a DataLake from the point of acquisition, its meta-data is captured and managed along with data traceability, data lineage, and security aspects based on data sensitivity across its life cycle. According to this reason, we have designed the DataLake Framework based on Abyss Storage Cluster.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between smoking attitudes and psychophysiological variables and to find out whether smoking cessation activities can be helpful for smoking cessation. We set up Negative Attitudes experience as a dependent variable. Several factors including Psychological Resistance, Psychological Distress and brainwave(Left brain ${\theta}$, Right Brain ${\theta}$) as a physiological indicator, which was expected to affect flow, were set up as independent variables to perform regression analysis. As a result, psychological resistance had negative influences on negative attitudes toward smoking in smoking simulation game and psychological distress had positive effect. And left brain ${\theta}$ had negative influences on negative attitudes toward smoking in smoking simulation game and right brain ${\theta}$ had positive effect.

In the present study, flow fields inside a photocatalysis air cleaning system have been investigated to obtain the data for optimum design of the system. For this investigation, we first predicted the pressure drop of a photocatalysis filter. Based on this calculation, we replaced the filter by the porous media and analysed the performance of the entire system. This porous media assumption could predict characteristics of the cylindrical photocatalysis filter within 1%. Two cases of the cylindrical filter were considered in the present calculations. The first case had an inside diameter of 6 mm, while the second case had an inside diameter of 20 mm. It was found that the first case of filter showed a pressure drop three times higher than that of the second case. In addition, the cylindrical filter equipped with a housing to hold a number of cylinders in a bundle was also analyzed. When the housing was present, the pressure drop increased. It was found that the pressure drop is 8 times higher than that of the case when the housing was not equipped.

Filtration experiments were conducted to determine the characteristics of manganese removal in filtration using 4 different filter media including sand and manganese sand(MS). Filtration velocity was 123 m/d and the flow rate was $3.9m^3/d$ per column. Duration of these experiments was about one year, and manganese dioxide accumulation, turbidity removal, manganese removal, and organic material removal were examined depending on filter media. When filter influent(residual chlorine 1.0 mg/L) with an average manganese concentration of 0.208 mg/L was fed through a filter column, the sand+MS and MS columns removed 98.9% and 99.2% of manganese respectively on an annual basis. When there is need to replace the sand filters with a MS filter to remove manganese, it was shown that the replacement of a partial sand filter with MS had adequate manganese removal.

This experiment was investigated to effect of divided rhizome size and medium type on survival rate and growth of wasabi for 60 days in controlled growth room. In divided rhizome size of 5mm above, survival rate was 100% and their growth (plant height of 12cm and leaf number of 3${\sim}$4 per plant) was good at 30 days after wrapped-sphagnum treatment. Plant height was 20cm above and number of leaves increased in 1-2 per plant at 60 days after treatment. Survival rate and growth didn't show any effect on plant regulator of root-tone. In inorganic media (saprolite and aerated light stone) treatment, survival rate of wasabi in divided size of 5${\sim}$10mm showed 83% or above at 30 days in deep flow culture. Growth did not show significant difference of inorganic support media treatments. Therefore, it is possible for divided rhizome size of 5mm above to do production of seedlings by acclimatize for 30 days in hydroponics under controlled growth chamber.

A strategic question in groundwater contaminant transport modeling is whether we need to treat waste packages or drums as individual, discrete sources or as approximately lumped sources. In this paper we present analyses of array sources in porous media. We analyze a planar array of sources in porous media with groundwater flow. We compare the concentration field predicted by a detailed model of individual point sources to concentration fields predicted by an infinite plane source and a single point source, all of the same equivalent strength. From this study we identified three regions: (1) a region close to the sources where the effects of adjacent sources are significant and individual source models should be used, (2) a region extending from a few meters to hundreds to thousands of meters downstream, where an equivalent source of infinite extent gives accurate results, and (3) a far-field region, where in an equivalent source of finite extent gives accurate results.

With the rapid development of cites, urban facilities have rapidly been increasing, and the task of managing them have also become complicated more and more. In this paper, we propose and design an intelligent context awareness system that effectively operates underground facilities in u-City. The suggested system consists of three major steps. The information acquisition step receives alarm information of sensors from the integrated platform. The analysis and inference step analyzes the alarm data and related information and infers the reason why the alarm happens. The information transmission step sends the final results of context awareness to the platform and other related modules. We produced some design products such as data flow diagram, function diagram, etc. We expect that the proposed context awareness system will be embedded in the integrated platform and used for an active management strategy of urban facilities.
