The NISS (Near-infrared Imaging Spectrometer for Star formation history) is the near-infrared spectro-photometric instrument optimized to the Next Generation of small satellite series (NEXTSat). To achieve the major scientific objectives for the study of the cosmic star formation in local and distant universe, the spectro-photometric survey covering more than 100 square degree will be performed. The main observational targets will be nearby galaxies, galaxy clusters, star-forming regions and low background regions. The off-axis optics was developed to cover a wide field of view ($2deg.{\times}2deg.$) as well as the wide wavelength range from 0.95 to $2.5{\mu}m$, which were revised based upon the recent test and evaluation of the NISS instrument. The mechanical structure were tested under the launching condition as well as the space environment. The signal processing from infrared sensor and the communication with the satellite were evaluated after the integration into the satellite. The flight model of the NSS was assembled and integrated into the satellite. To verify operations of the satellite in space, the space environment tests such as the vibration, shock and thermal-vacuum test were performed. The accurate calibration data were obtained in our test facilities. Here, we report the test results of the flight model of the NISS.

시청자의 시야를 콘텐츠로 가득 채워주어 강한 몰입감을 제공하는 다면 영상 제작을 위해서는 다수의 카메라를 이용한 촬영이 요구된다. 이러한 촬영 시나리오에서는 다수의 카메라에 의해 촬영되고 있는 화면들이 하나의 콘텐츠로써 어떻게 보여질지 혹은 실제 상영관에서 어떻게 보여질지 확인하는 모니터링 과정이 매우 중요하다. 기존의 특수 포맷 영상 촬영에 관한 연구들은 모두 스테레오스코픽 입체 영상이나 파노라마 영상 등 각자의 목적에 집중하여 이루어져 왔으며, 최근 확산되고 있는 세 개의 면을 이용한 다면 상영관에 최적화된 콘텐츠 제작에 관한 연구는 부재하다. 본 논문에서는 세 대의 카메라를 제어할 수 있는 리그와 다면 영상 포맷에 특화된 모니터링 소프트웨어를 이용한 다면 콘텐츠 현장 촬영 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 리그는 카메라 간의 각도를 정밀하게 조절하여 세 대의 카메라로 넓은 화각을 촬영할 수 있으며, 원격 통신을 통해 모니터링 소프트웨어와 연동된다. 모니터링 소프트웨어는 실시간으로 들어오는 영상들을 자동으로 정렬해주며, 수신 받은 리그의 각도에 따라 영상의 정렬이 자동으로 업데이트된다. 또한 촬영 시에 얻어진 정렬 정보를 후반작업에 사용할 수 있게 함으로써, 제작 효율을 크게 향상시킨다.

MIRIS is the main payload of the STSAT-3 (Science and Technology Satellite 3) and the first infrared space telescope for astronomical observation in Korea. MIRIS space observation camera (SOC) covers the observation wavelength from $0.9{\mu}m$ to $2.0{\mu}m$ with a wide field of view $3.67^{\circ}\times3.67^{\circ}$. The PICNIC HgCdTe detector in a cold box is cooled down below 100K by a micro Stirling cooler of which cooling capacity is 220mW at 77K. MIRIS SOC adopts passive cooling technique to chill the telescope below 200 K by pointing to the deep space (3K). The cooling mechanism employs a radiator, a Winston cone baffle, a thermal shield, MLI (Multi Layer Insulation) of 30 layers, and GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic) pipe support in the system. Optomechanical analysis was made in order to estimate and compensate possible stresses from the thermal contraction of mounting parts at cryogenic temperatures. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of mechanical structure was also conducted to ensure safety and stability in launching environments and in orbit. MIRIS SOC will mainly perform Galactic plane survey with narrow band filters (Pa $\alpha$ and Pa $\alpha$ continuum) and CIB (Cosmic Infrared Background) observation with wide band filters (I and H) driven by a cryogenic stepping motor.

The NISS (Near-infrared Imaging Spectrometer for Star formation history) onboard NEXTSat-1 is the near-infrared instrument onboard NEXTSat-1 which is being developed by KASI. The main scientific targets are nearby galaxies, galaxy clusters, star-forming regions and low background regions in order to study the cosmic star formation history in local and distant universe. After the Preliminary Design Review, we have fixed major specifications of the NISS. The off-axis optical design with 15cm apertureis optimized to obtain a wide field of view ($2deg.{\times}2deg.$), while minimizing the sensitivity loss. The opto-mechanical structure of the NISS was designed to be safe enough to endure in the launching condition as well as the space environment. The tolerance analysis was performed to cover the wide wavelength range from 0.95 to $3.8{\mu}m$ and to reduce the degradation of optical performance due to thermal variation at the target temperature, 200K. The $1k{\times}1k$ infrared sensor is operated in the dewar at 80K stage. We confirmed that the NISS can be cooled down to below 200K in the nominal orbit through a radiative cooling. Here, we report the preliminary design of the NISS.

Library and information research is often directed towards either the management of resources (e.g., the economics of resource management), their storage and retrieval (e.g., much information retrieval research), and the users of these resources (the whole area of information behaviour. However, the question that is less often asked is, "What research do librarians want to have carried out to help them in their work?" Clearly, some of the topics just mentioned will fall into the priority areas, but what do librarians actually perceive will be of use to them. There is a notion that a research-practice gap exists in the field and perhaps the reason for that is that researchers do not ask the practioners what research will be of value to them. To find an answer to this question on a global basis would, of course, be impossible - at least impossible without the level of funding that would be difficult to obtain from any source. However, it is possible to carry out research on a national level that could prove useful both to practitioners and to the library and information research community. This was the aim of a project, supported by the Svensk Biblioteksf$\"{o}$rening (Swedish Library Association), which was carried out in 2008/2009. Ideas on potential research projects were collected from librarians themselves, from discussion group archives and from the professional journals in a number of countries. These ideas were then grouped thematically and formed the basis of two rounds of a Delphi process to solicit the opinions of a panel of librarians in different sectors, recommended by their peers as 'expert' in their field. The Delphi process was concluded with a workshop involving a subset of the panel. This paper will report on the results of the investigation, which attracted a great deal of interest within the profession in Sweden, and will also reflect on issues that were ranked lowly in the investigation. For example, not a great deal of priority was given to topics relating to the development and use of technology: why was this? And would the same result be found in other countries? One major area of research interest was into the future of libraries and a topic of relevance here, especially for academic and research libraries, is the changing information behaviour of researchers: what, now, do researchers want of libraries? Clearly, technology is playing a role here, but digitized resources and the World Wide Web may not be the answer to every researcher's need. Research into libraries and research for libraries ought to figure largely in the profession's view of its aims, objectives and visions of the future: but for it to do so requires a recognition that the work will not be done unless researchers and practitioners come together to determine how to approach the future.

Efficient management of deteriorating civil infrastructure is one of the most important research topics in many developed countries. In particular, the remote displacement measurement of bridges using linear variable differential transformers, global positioning systems, laser Doppler vibrometers, and computer vision technologies has been attempted extensively. This paper proposes a remote displacement measurement system using closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs) and a computer-vision-based method for in-situ bridge bearings having relatively large displacement due to temperature change in long term. The hardware of the system is composed of a reference target for displacement measurement, a CCTV to capture target images, a gateway to transmit images via a mobile network, and a central server to store and process transmitted images. The usage of CCTV capable of night vision capture and wireless data communication enable long-term 24-hour monitoring on wide range of bridge area. The computer vision algorithm to estimate displacement from the images involves image preprocessing for enhancing the circular features of the target, circular Hough transformation for detecting circles on the target in the whole field-of-view (FOV), and homography transformation for converting the movement of the target in the images into an actual expansion displacement. The simple target design and robust circle detection algorithm help to measure displacement using target images where the targets are far apart from each other. The proposed system is installed at the Tancheon Overpass located in Seoul, and field experiments are performed to evaluate the accuracy of circle detection and displacement measurements. The circle detection accuracy is evaluated using 28,542 images captured from 71 CCTVs installed at the testbed, and only 48 images (0.168%) fail to detect the circles on the target because of subpar imaging conditions. The accuracy of displacement measurement is evaluated using images captured for 17 days from three CCTVs; the average and root-mean-square errors are 0.10 and 0.131 mm, respectively, compared with a similar displacement measurement. The long-term operation of the system, as evaluated using 8-month data, shows high accuracy and stability of the proposed system.

Routine chest radiography is generally imaged by high voltage technique but some radiological technologists use low voltage for imaging. High voltage is usually said between $120\;kV{\sim}140\;kV$. Some RTs like using heavy filtration but others seldom like using it. However which is better for use calcium tungustate film screen system or ortho system and high contrast film or wide latitude c-type film for the exculusive use of chest radiography. We could not make a decision which is ideal method for use. In my opinion any method is not always exellent for chest radiography. In my experiments that I had at Kaken hospital in Japan last year I expect to keep the balance between image quality and diagnostic range and to reduce radiation dose for patients. My experiments are as follows. 1. We have looked into system characteristics(speed and contrast) in accordance with kVp($80{\sim}140$) and added filter($no{\sim}1/16\;VL$) in three screen film systems(BX3+CRONEX4, SRO750+MGH, SRO750+MGL). 2. We have looked into skin dose and film dose with same D=1.8 lung field density in accordance with kVp($80{\sim}140$) and added filter($no{\sim}1/16\;VL$) in three screen film systems. 3. We have compared with the evaluation between correlation of physical image quality(MTF) and optical diagnostic capability. Result are follows. 1. Speed of BX3+CRONEX4 became higher in accodance with kVp and thickness of filter but speed of ortho system was not as like regular system. Thicker filter diminished the speed over 100 kV range in SRO750+MGL. In case of SRO750+MGH speed of 1/16VL filter was looked into lower than speed of 1/4VL filter. Sensitivity of ortho system depends on tube voltage and added filter. 2. Skin dose has been detected $225\;{\mu}Gy{\sim}66\;{\mu}Gy$ in BX3+CRONEX4 from 80 kV, no filter to 140 kV, 1/16VL filter. SRO750+MGH could reduce the patient dose $1/2{\sim}1/3$ level in comparison to that of BX3+CRONEX4. 3. The higher kV was the worse MTF became the thicker filter was the worse MTF became too. MTF of BX3+CRONEX4 was detected better than MTF of SRO750+MGH but SRO750+MGH's optical detectability of small lesion in lung field came out better than that of BX3+CRONEX4. Conclusion Recently routine chest radiography is generally imaged by high voltage but it seems to be there are some questions in using of film screen combination. In high voltage chest radiography the subject contrast will come down that means latitude become wider. In this case if we select the low contrast film screen system(C or L type) the film contrast will fall down extremly and detectability of small lesion will be deteriorated. Wide latitude C, L type film has a merit of high detectability on mediastinum. Furthermore high contrast film screen system has the advantage to keep the high contrast in low density region as like mediastinum and heart shadow. Therefore in low subject contrast high voltage chest radiography we would rather choose the high contrast film screen system(H type) I think. From a view point of patient dose detectability of mediastinum and lung field. The optimum technical facter was found out 120 kV, 1/16VL filter : BX3+CRONEX4, 140 kV, 1/4VL filter : SRO750+MGH, 100 kV, 1/4VL filter : SRO750+MGL.

해수광 특성이 시공간적으로 심하게 변동하는 동중국해 북부해역에서 현장 클로로필 $\alpha$와 OSMI 밴드(412, 443, 490, 555nm) 및 해수 다중 광측정기(PRR-800) 밴드(412, 443, 490, 510, 555, 670, 765nm)간의 관계성을 구한 결과, 클로로필 $\alpha$에 대한 각 밴드별 remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) 값이 맑은 해수(미국 캘리포니아 근해)에서 보다 동중국해 북부해역에서 크게 나타났다. 또한 440nm와 670nm 영역에서 현장 관측 클로로필 $\alpha$에 대한 입자 물질들의 광흡수 값이 맑은 해수의 경우보다 큰 값을 보였다. 그러므로, OSMI밴드에서 클로로필로 인해 최대 흡수가 일어나는 밴드가 443nm을 추정할 수 있었다. 동중국해를 관측한 OSMI 위성의 각 band (412, 443, 490, 555 nm)로부터 nLw (normalized water-leaving radiance)와 현장 클로로필 $\alpha$(Chl $\alpha$)값의 관계성(Chl $\alpha$= f(nLw)을 구하였다. OSMI 밴드에서 클로로필 $\alpha$ 값과 각 밴드별 nLw 값과의 상관성은 412nm에서 최저 상관성을, 555nm에서 최고 상관성을 나타내었다. 클로로필 $\alpha$ 현장 관측 값 및 OSMI 복합밴드 비 값(nLw412/nLw555, nLw443/nLw555, nLw490/nLw555)을 비교 분석한 결과, nLw490/nLw555 비 값과 현장 클로로필 $\alpha$ 값간에 최고 높은 상관성을 나타내었다. 다음으로 nLw443/nLw555 순으로 안정된 값을 보였으나, nLw412/nLw555와 클로로필 $\alpha$ 값간의 상관성이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 3시간이내 현장 측정 클로로필 $\alpha$ 값을 기준으로 OSMI 및 SeaWiFS 위성 자료를 OC2 알고리즘을 이용하여 추정한 클로로필 값간의 차이는 해양의 수평 공간 변동에 관계없이 OSMI 추정 값이 약 0.3mg/m$^3$ 정도 일정하게 낮게 나타났다. 향후 OSMI 위성 밴드를 이용한 클로로필 $\alpha$ 추정시에는 SeaWiFS 위성과 관련된 global algorithms 중에서 490nm와 555nm의 복합밴드를 포함하는 OC2 알고리즘(ocean color chlorophyll 2 algorithm)을 사용하는 것이 OC2 series 및 OC4 알고리즘보다 좋은 추정 값을 도출할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

천리안 해양위성 2호(Geostationary Ocean Color Imager-II, GOCI-II)에서 관측된 대기상층 복사휘도에서 해양환경 분석이 가한 원격반사도(remote-sensing reflectance, R_rs) 자료를 얻기 위해서 복사 전달 모델 기반의 대기 보정을 수행한다. 이 R_rs는 다시 엽록소, 총부유사, 용존유기물 농도 등의 다양한 해양환경변수 산출에 이용되고 있기 때문에 대기보정은 모든 해색 산출물의 정확도에 영향을 주는 중요한 알고리즘이다. 맑은 해역에서는 대기의 복사휘도가 청색 파장대의 해수 복사휘도보다 10배 이상 높다. 따라서 대기보정 과정에서 1%의 대기 복사휘도 추정 오차가 10% 이상의 R_rs 오차를 유발할 수 있으며, 이처럼 대기보정은 매우 높은 오차 민감도를 가진 알고리즘이다. 그 결과 대기보정 산출물인 R_rs의 품질 평가는 신뢰성 있는 해양 위성 기반 자료 분석을 위해 반드시 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Bio-optical Archive and Storage System (SeaBASS)을 통해 데이터베이스화 된 현장 측정 R_rs 기반 통계적 신뢰성을 평가하는 Quality Assurance (QA) 알고리즘을 GOCI-II의 분광 특성에 맞게 수정 및 적용하였다. 이 방법은 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)의 해색위성 자료처리 시스템에 공식적으로 적용되어 서비스 중이며, R_rs의 품질 분석 점수(0~1점)를 제공할 뿐 아니라 해수의 유형(23 유형)도 구분해 준다. 실제로 검보정 초기 단계의 GOCI-II 자료에 QA를 적용한 결과, R_rs는 비교적 낮은 값인 0.625에서 가장 높은 빈도를 보여주었지만 추가적인 검보정을 통해 개선된 GOCI-II 대기보정 결과에 QA 알고리즘을 적용했을 시 기존보다 높은 0.875에서 가장 높은 빈도를 보여주었다. QA 알고리즘을 통한 해수 유형 분석 결과, 동해 및 남해 일부 그리고 북서태평양 해역은 주로 탁도가 낮은 case-I 해역이었으며 서해 연안 및 동중국해는 주로 탁도가 높은 case-II 해역으로 구분되었다. 이처럼 QA 알고리즘의 적용을 통해 대기보정 과정에서 오차가 크게 발생한 R_rs 자료를 객관적으로 판별하여 배제할 수 있으며 이는 배포자료 및 검보정의 신뢰도 향상으로 이어질 수 있다. 본 방법은 추후 GOCI-II의 대기보정 flag에 적용되어 사용자들이 양질의 R_rs 자료만을 적용할 수 있도록 도움을 줄 것이다.
