  • Disposal of hazardous ions in the aqueous streams is a significant industrial waste problem.. Waste streams from electronics, electroplating, and photographic industries contain metal ions such as copper, nickel, zinc, chromium(IV), cadmium, aluminum, silver, and gold, amongst others in various aqueous solutions such as sulfates, chlorides, fluorocarbons, and cyanides. Typical plating solutions having similar compositions are listed in Table 1. Spent process streams in catalyst manufacturing facilities also contain precious metals such as Ag, Pt, and Pd. Developing an effective recovery process of these metal ions for reuse is important.

  • In this study, a method for river water quality evaluation by algal examination was investigated. For development of this method, algae living in small rural streams in Gwangcheon-Cheon were collected and observed by microscope. Samples were collected at six stations from May 2008 to May 2009. To elucidate the relationship between pollution and the algal species, diatom grasps were collected from the streams and used to determine the water quality grade. The numerical EC value was compared with the value of DAIpo (Diatom Assemblage Index of Organic Water Pollution), and the results showed a tendency to a mutually inverse relationship. Further, the numerical BOD and COD values were compared to the DAIpo value. The results showed that, various diatoms reside in Gwangcheon-Cheon, and water quality was found to be second-grade at all the examined points. These results indicate pollution of streams by livestock wastewater; however continuous monitoring will be necessary to more definitely determine the reason for the Gwangcheon-Cheon pollution.

  • In this paper, an adaptive algorithm is proposed in streaming MPEG-4 contents with fluctuating resource amount such as throughput of network conditions. MPEG-4 is the international standard for audiovisual presentation which is composed of object based media streams. The proposed technique provides the media stream corresponding an object with multiple media streams with different qualities and bit rate in order to support object based scalability to the MPEG-4 content. In addition, making the object streams adaptable, a feasible stream set selected from the multiple streams for transmission with optimal quality in the form of the current status.

  • In this paper, we propose a stream based patching technique in order to reduce demands of network output bandwidth required to provide the true video-on-demand (VoD) service in a Multimedia server. The proposed scheme calculates required streams to clients accurately by analyzing temporal relationships between already arrived requests in a multimedia server and still progressing streams, and then transmits streams freshly. Since our stream based patching technique induces new linking stream which is playing a link role between long and short patching streams, it reduces demand of network output bandwidth required to provide the true VoD service in a multimedia server. Accordingly, we know that the proposed scheme improves service latency and defection rate than those of existing patching technique by a simulation study.

  • To investigate water quality and pollution states of rivers in Gwangju city, total of 30 water samples were taken from the main stream of Yeongsan river, Hwangryong river and Gwangju stream in dry and flood seasons. Physico-chemical characteristics of above streams according to pH-Eh and Piper's diagrams we, typically, assigned to natural river water. In the streams, BOD, COD, T-N and T-P indicating water quality mostly increase toward downstream. Notably, water qualities in area near connection between the Gwangju stream and the main stream of Yeongsan river are polluted over V level in rivers and lakes water quality standard. The pollutions are influenced by lift and agricultural foul waters from Gwangju City and farming areas around upstream branches of the Yeongsan river, reasonably. Besides, heavy metals are below the standard in those streams. So, it is considered that the streams are polluted by not industrial but life/agricultural foul waters.

  • A standard fire extinguishing tester, with which we could conduct the fire extinguishing ability rating of a water-based fire extinguishing agent such as water and loaded stream, has been developed in this work. It could help us enhancing the efficiency and reliability of the fire extinguishing test of loaded streams, and at last increasing the productivity of fire protection related firms. Furthermore, our country could take the lead in making a new standard for the fire extinguishing test of loaded streams. As a result, it is expected that loaded streams could be improved by using it. In addition the standard fire extinguishing tester could be made moderately in our industry, and supplied at home and worldwide.

  • In intensive agriculture, exceeded chemical fertilizer application would increase the concentration of nitrate nitrogen in groundwater. Consequently, it could bring the eutrophication in lakes and streams. The present study examined runoff loading of nitrogen and phosphorus from the paddy field during non-cropping season. The runoff loading of total-N, ammonia-N, nitrate-N and total-P were 12.96kg/ha, 5.42kg/ha, 1.52kg/ha and 1.41kg/ha. When the runoff loading of nutrients was compared by runoff water and sediments. About 70-80% of total-N by runoff water and the rest 20-30% by runoff sediments were flowed into streams. But 60-70% of total-P by runoff sediments and the rest 30-40% by runoff water were flowed into streams. The phosphorus compounds, which were flowed into streams by runoff sediments and then sedimented, keep exchanging with water at water body in undelivered condition. And it moves gradually into water layer. This process can cause eutrophication continually and repeatedly in water environment. So, a sound program is needed to reduce soil erosion from farmlands.

  • In the last few years, a new type of synchronous social networking services (SNSs) has emerged—social live streaming services (SLSSs). Studying SLSSs is a new and exciting research field in information science. What information behaviors do users of live streaming platforms exhibit? In our empirical study we analyzed information production behavior (i.e., broadcasting) as well as information reception behavior (watching streams and commenting on them). We conducted two quantitative investigations, namely an online survey with YouNow users (N = 123) and observations of live streams on YouNow (N = 434). YouNow is a service with video streams mostly made by adolescents for adolescents. YouNow users like to watch streams, to chat while watching, and to reward performers by using emoticons. While broadcasting, there is no anonymity (as in nearly all other WWW services). Synchronous SNSs remind us of the film The Truman Show, as anyone has the chance to consciously broadcast his or her own life real-time.

  • This paper proposes variable stream and sample size(VSSS) group control charts in which both the number of streams selected for sampling and sample size from each of the selected streams are allowed to vary based on the values of the preceding sample statistics. The proposed charts select a small portion of streams and take samples of size n = 1 if both the largest and smallest of sample means fall between the lower and upper threshold limits, and select a large portion of streams and take samples of size n > 1 otherwise. A Markov chain approach is used to derive the formulas for evaluating the performances of the proposed charts. Numerical comparisons are made between the VSSS and fixed stream and sample size(FSSS) group control charts.

  • 자연언어 분석에 있어서 형태소 분석은 핵심적인 기술로 요구되고 있다. 한글 형태소 분석기는 한글을 분석하기 위한 알고리즘을 활용하여 형태소 단위로 분석한다. 하지만 한글과 문장부호가 혼용된 특수어절은 한글을 분석하는 알고리즘을 통하여 정확한 결과를 도출할 수가 없으므로 별도의 알고리즘이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 특수어절에 공백을 삽입하여 다시 어절로 분리해 내는 알고리즘을 적용하여 해결하고자 한다.
