We have fabricated a single-electron-tunneling(SET) transistor with a dual gate geometry based on the SOI structure prepared by SIMOX wafers. The split-gate is the lower-gate is the lower-level gate and located ∼ 100${\AA}$ right above the inversion layer 2DEG active channel, which yields strong carrier confinement with fully controllable tunneling potential barrier. The transistor is operating at low temperatures and exhibits the single electron tunneling behavior through nano-size quantum dot. The Coulomb-Blockade oscillation is demonstrated at 15mK and its periodicity of 16.4mV in the upper-gate voltage corresponds to the formation of quantum dots with a capacity of 9.7aF. For non-linear transport regime, Coulomb-staircases are clearly observed up to four current steps in the range of 100mV drain-source bias. The I-V characteristics near the zero-bias displays typical Coulomb-gap due to one-electron charging effect.

Peroxiredoxins (Prx's) are a superfamily of peroxidases that are ubiquitous in all super-kingdoms. Previous biochemical and structural studies have suggested that Prx's could be divided into five subfamilies (1-Cys, Typical 2-Cys, Atypical 2-Cys C-, L- and R- types). In this work, we have developed a set of regular expression patterns describing subfamily-specific spatial constraints of the key catalytic residues. Using these patterns, 1,016 Prx's available in public databases were classified into the five subfamilies. Our method performed well for most of the types except for Atypical 2 Cys R type.

This study was conducted to classify community and verify vegetation structure of Picea jezoensis community in subalpine zone of Mt. Kyebang, Mt. Jiri, Mt. Deogyu, 39 releves set up and was carried out to analyze ordination. P. jezoensis Community was classified into Acer ukurunduense subcommunity, Quercus mongolica subcommunity, Syringa reticulata var. mandshurica subcommunity and P. jezoensis typical subcommunity. The order of important value of the forest community with DBH 2cm above plants was P. jezoensis (89.22), Acer komarovii (30.50), Abies koreana (18.81), Rhododendron schlippenbachii (18.10), Sorbus commixta (17.19), Betula ermanii (16.89), Pinus koraiensis (16.80), Taxus cuspidata (12.45), Acer ukurunduense (11.73). The DBH analysis suggests that P. jezoensis will maintain dominant position.

The coupled turbulent flow and solidification is considered in a typical slab continuous easting process using commercial program FIDAP. Standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model is modified to decay turbulent viscosity in the mushy zone and laminar viscosity is set to a sufficiently large value at the solid region. This coupled turbulent flow and solidification model also contains thermal contact resistance due to the mold powder and air gap between the strand and mold using an effective thermal conductivity. From the computed flow pattern, the trajectory of inclusion particles was calculated. The comparison between the predicted and experimental solidified shell thickness shows a good agreement.

A novel self-organizing fuzzy plus PD control algorithm is proposed, where the proposed controller consists of a typical fuzzy reasoning part and self organizing part in which both on-line and off-line algorithms are employed to modify the Look-Up Table(LUT) for the fuzzy control rules and to decide how much fuzzy rules are to be modifid after evaluating the control performance, respectively. And the fuzzy controller is replaced by a PD controller in a prespecified region nearby the set point for good settling actions, where gain parameters are determined by fuzzy rules based on the magnitude of error velocity at the instant when the output penetrates into the prespecified region. To show the effectiveness of the proposed controller, extensive computer simulation results as well as experimental results are illustrated for an inverted pendulum system.

Purpose In this paper we proposed bi-directional hierarchical regression for accurate human finger landmark detection with only using depth information.Materials and Methods Our algorithm consisted of two different step, initialization and landmark estimation. To detect initial landmark, we used difference of random pixel pair as the feature descriptor. After initialization, 16 landmarks were estimated using cascaded regression methods. To improve accuracy and stability, we proposed bi-directional hierarchical structure.Results In our experiments, the ICVL database were used for evaluation. According to our experimental results, accuracy and stability increased when applying bi-directional hierarchical regression more than typical method on the test set. Especially, errors of each finger tips of hierarchical case significantly decreased more than other methods.Conclusion Our results proved that our proposed method improved accuracy and stability and also could be applied to a large range of applications such as augmented reality and simulation surgery.

The estimation of mortality characteristics of industrial property is an important adjunct to engineering valuation and depreciation estimation. Once the important of depreciation estimation is determined, it is desirable to understand the processes upon which these estimates are based. The Iowa type survivor curves are a set of generalized retirement dispersion models. These curves were based on analysis of actual retirement experience and represent typical retirement behavior patterns likely to be encountered. The retirement rate of Iowa type survivor curves on the semiconductor equipments in Korea industry was estimated by the life estimation process. In this paper, estimates of service lives based on directly observed data of the domestic semiconductor equipments are presented.

As the level of maunfacturing system automation increases, the issues of modeling and simulation of AMS(Automated Manufacturing System) are becoming more important. Proposed in this paper is the JR-Net(Job Resource relation-Net) modeling framework which naturally mimics the process of designing an AMS by FA(Factory Automation) engineers. Its main purpose is to provide a modeling tool which facilitate modeling work of AMS for FA engineers unfamiliar with simulation modeling. The proposed modeling scheme is based on the extensive observation that typical AMSs are built from the set of 'standard' components(or catalog items). As an application of the proposed model, two real examples of FMS('G7'FMS model plant, RPI FMS) are modeled by JR-Net, and in case of FMS model plant, a simulation program development procedure using JR-Net modeling results is explained. Finally, simulation result of FMS model plant is analyzed.

In the field of computer graphics, rendering speed is one of the most important factors. Contemporary rendering is performed using 3D graphics systems with windowing system support. Since typical graphics systems, including OpenGL and the DirectX library, focus on the variety of graphics rendering features, the rendering process itself consists of many complicated operations. In contrast, early computer systems used direct manipulation of computer graphics hardware, and achieved simple and efficient graphics handling operations. We suggest an alternative method of accelerated 2D and 3D graphics output, based on directly accessing modern GPU hardware using the direct rendering manager (DRM) system. On the basis of this DRM support, we exchange the graphics instructions and graphics data directly, and achieve better performance than full 3D graphics systems. We present a prototype system for providing a set of simple 2D and 3D graphics primitives. Experimental results and their screen shots are included.

Inheritance reasoning has been widely used in the area of common sense reasoning in artificial intelligence. Although many inheritance reasoners have been proposed in artificial intelligence literature, most previous reasoning systems are lack of clear semantics, thus sometimes provide anomalous conclusions. In this paper, we describe a set-oriented inheritance reasoner and propose a method of resolving conflicts with clear semantics of defeasible rules. The semantics of default rule is provided by statistical analysis of $\chi$ method, and likelihood of rule is computed based on the evidence in the past. Two basic rules, specificity and generality, are defined to resolve conflicts effectively in the process of reasoning. We show that the mutual tradeoff between specificity and generality 추 prevent many anomalous results from occurring in traditional inheritance reasoners. An algorithm is provided. and some typical examples are given to show how the specificity/generality rules resolve conflicts effectively in inheritance reasoning.
