The purpose of this study is to re-read the film of Dead Poets Society, specially focused on a feminist view. The film hides the strategy of recovering the traditional Patriarchal Society. At the beginning, the film resists the values of traditional society through John Keating. His unorthodox methods of teaching literature smack against the traditions of Welton Academy. Furthermore, he stresses on "Carpe Diem"—Seize the Day, the romantic values of free thinking, creativity, and individuality. The forces opposing Keating's philosophy are personified by Welton's rigid, old headmaster, Mr. Nolan, and the cruel, stubborn parent, Mr. Perry. Keating's romantic values are failed by their powerful, dominating attitudes. Effected by Keating's philosophy, Neil decides to pursue acting rather than medicine. He conflicts with his strict father. Finally frustrated by his authority, Neil commits suicide. And Keating is accused of inciting the boys to restart the Dead Poets Society, and at last he is fired. Keating and Neil are victimized by the Patriarchal society. Even though the film concentrates male characters at the all boys' school, it reveals the male angle of binary oppositions between men and women, subject and object, activity and passivity, presence and absence. In the film's dramatic conclusion, English class is now being temporarily taught by Nolan, who has the boys read from the very Pritchard essay they had ripped out at the start of the film. It symbolizes the triumph of the traditional logocentric society. However, influenced by Keating's unconventional attitudes, ultimately Welton Academy will be changed as it is embodied in its closing scene.

In relation to the scientific conservation treatment of ancient gilt bronze, the gold film coated on the bronze excavated from Hwangnam Great Tomb of Old Silla Kingdom(A. D. 5C) was studied in the view of coating technology and metallurgy of bronze. The uniform and dense gold film containing $2.44\sim12.40%$ of Hg with the thickness of $5.99\sim12.97{\mu}m$ was found to be coated on the bronze objects by amalgam coating method. On silver objects, the film with the thickness of $19.96{\mu}m$ was coated also continously and uniformly with gold by the same method. The bronze objects was fabricated by forging technique and contained almost $4.7\sim11.5%$ of Pb. Its microstructure was $\alpha-phase$ solid solution including Pb segregation in the matrix. The amount of $0.4\sim2.0%$ Zn was added in the bronze for the purpose of easy fabricating of Cu alloy. Based on the data studied, the gold film on bronze sample was reproduced by amalgam coating method and compared with the ancient gold film.

Old archived film shows two major defects: line scratch and blobs. In this paper, we present a design and implementation of an automatic video restoration system for line scratches observed in archived film. We use autoregressive (AR) image model because we can make stochastic and specifically autoregressive image generation process with our PAST-PRESENT model and Sampling Pattern. We designed locality maximizing scanning pattern, which can generate nearly stationary time-like series of pixels, which is a strong requirement for a stochastic series to be autoregressive. The sampled pixel series undergoes filtering and model fitting using Durbin-Levinson algorithm before interpolation process. We designed three-stage film restoration system, which includes (1) film acquisition from VHS tapes, (2) simple line scratch detection and restoration, and (3) manual blob identification and sophisticated inpainting scheme. We implemented film acquisition and simple inpainting scheme on Texas Instruments DSP board TMS320DM642 EVM, and implemented our AR inpainting scheme on PC for sophisticated restoration. We experimented our scheme with two old Korean films: "Viva Freedom" and "Robot Tae-Kwon-V", and the experimental results show that our scheme improves Bertalmio's scheme for subjective quality (MOS), objective quality (PSNR), and especially restoration ratio (RR), which reflects how much similar to the manual inpainting results.

In recent years, a film restoration has gained increasing attention by many researchers, to support multimedia service of high quality. In general, an old film is degraded by dust, scratch, flick, and so on. Among these, the common factors are scratch and blotch, so that many researchers have been investigated to restore these degradations. However, the methods in literature have one major limitation: A method is working well in dealing with scratches, however it is poorly working in processing the blotches. The goal of this work is to develop a robust technique to restore images degraded by both scratches and blotches. For this, we use MRF-MAP (Markov random field - maximum a posteriori) framework, so that the restoration problem is considered as the minimization problem of the posteriori energy function. As the minimization is one of complex combinatorial problem, we use distributed genetic algorithms (DGAs) that effectively deal with combinatorial problems. To asses the validity of the proposed method, it was tested on natural old films and artificially degraded films, and the results were compared with other methods. Then, the results show that the proposed method is superior to other methods.

Based on the analysis of domestic and international cases of green remodeling design for old buildings using solar cells, which have been in the spotlight around the world since the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, this study wanted to confirm the positive aspects and implications of the future green remodeling design proposal using solar cells. As a method of research, theoretical consideration was conducted based on literature research, and cases of green remodeling design using solar cells at home and abroad were investigated and analyzed. As a result, the ease of construction through flexible features, aesthetic effect through transparency and color adjustment of thin film cells, economic effect of less waste of materials through free size production, and harmonious aspect with the building through direct attachment of exterior were identified. Based on this, it is expected to present the expected effects of using thin-film solar cells for green remodeling designs, and to be used as a reference for the future design proposal for green remodeling of old buildings using solar cells.

Analyzing electrical degradation of polycrystalline silicon transistor to applicable at several environment is very important issue. In this research, after fabricating p channel poly crystalline silicon TFT (thin film transistor) electrical characteristics were compare and analized that changed by gate bias with first measurement. As a result on and off current was reduced by variation of gate bias and especially re duce ratio of off current was reduced by $7.1{\times}10^1$. On/off current ratio, threshold voltage and electron mobility increased. Also, when channel length gets shorter on/off current ratio was increased more and thresh old voltage increased less. It was cause due to electron trap and de-trap to gate silicon oxide by variation of gate bias.

In this work, vertically aligned metal oxide nanorods(ZnO, $TiO_2$, $WO_3$) were grown onto CuO film at the room temperature. The fabricated nanorods of 90nm~500nm diameter range and $1{\mu}m{\sim}15{\mu}m$ of length range. Growth of metal oxide nanorods only depends on thickness of CuO film in this method, and it is grown at both of room temperature and high temperature. That means, it is much faster mathod to make the vertical metal oxide nanorods than old method such as hydrothermal method.

Low density polyethylene(LDPE) film was fabricated with the addition of synthetic ceramic which contained a natural antimicrobial agents. The antimicrobial agents used were isolated from culture broths of methylotropic actinomycetes strains MO-16 and MO-17, and Streptomyces sp. No. 31, which was newly isolated from soils as an antifungal agent. Four-day old culture broth of Streptomyces sp. No. 31 showed strong antifungal activity against Aspergilus niger, a test strain, and retained antimicrobial activity after heat treatment at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. The ceramic LDPE film reduced the growth of total aerobic bacteria in packaged minced pork compared with commercial film. The film revealed a 40 to 50% growth inhibition of E. coli on a contained agar plate. In the storage testing of various packaged foods at room temperature for 30 days, the ceramic LDPE film showed excellent preservation compared with commercial film.
