This paper presents an overlapping pattern substitution (PS) method. The original overlapping PS method as a reversible data hiding scheme works well with only four pattern pairs among fifteen possible such pairs. This paper generalizes the original PS method so that it will work well with an optimal pair from among the fifteen possible pattern pairs. To implement such an overlapping PS method, changeable and embeddable patterns are first defined. A class map is virtually constructed to identify the changeable and embeddable pairs. The run-lengths between consecutive least probable patterns are recorded. Experiments show that an implementation of our overlapping PS method works well with any possible type of pairs. Comparison results show that the proposed method achieves more embedding capacity, a higher PSNR value, and less human visual distortion for a given embedding payload.

To overcome some of the limitations in the conventional photolithography technique, MC-SPL which has advantages such as flexibility and high speed was developed in the past. To make a fine pattern using MC-SPL, there are many variables to control, for example, applied load, scribing speed, chemical etching condition, and etc. In this work, the effect of contact load on the width of the pattern was investigated. The load not only influences the width of the pattern but it also affects the wear of the probe tip. It was found that it is beneficial to load the tip in two stages. Futhermore, the experimental results showed that the pattern width was more sensitive to the initial contact force.

Surface electromyogram (sEMG), which is a bio-electrical signal originated from action potentials of nerves and muscle fibers activated by motor neurons, has been widely used for recognizing motion intention of robotic prosthesis for amputees because it enables a device to be operated intuitively by users without any artificial and additional work. In this paper, we propose a training-free unsupervised sEMG pattern recognition algorithm. It is useful for the gesture recognition for the amputees from whom we cannot achieve motion labels for the previous supervised pattern recognition algorithms. Using the proposed algorithm, we can classify the sEMG signals for gesture recognition and the calculated threshold probability value can be used as a sensitivity parameter for pattern registration. The proposed algorithm was verified by a case study of a patient with partial-hand amputation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine job involvement according to working pattern and daytime sleepiness in hospital nurses. Methods: At 2 hospitals in affiliation of university, after obtaining participant's consent form, data were collected from October to November, 2007. Twohundred fifty nurses participated in the study. Questionnaire consisted of Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Job Involvement. Collected data was analyzed with SPSS 14.0 program, which was used for frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results: Major findings of this study were as follows 1) The nurses for 3 shift work was 172 (68.8%), the nurses for 2 shift work was 3 (1.2%) and the nurses for day fixation was 75 (30.0%). 2) Mean of ESS was 5.94 (3.28), daytime sleepiness was 13.2% and Job involvement had a mean of $21.27.{\pm}4.61.3$) There were significant differences between shift work and day fixed work on ESS (t=4.33, p<.001), job involvement (t=6.54, p<.001). Higher ESS were significantly related to lower job involvement (r=-.185, p=.003). Conclusion: The finding of this study gives useful informations about sleep and work involvement of hospital nurses. It is need to develop systemic management for shift work nurses by hospital, nurse organization, and government.

Garment is made by a 2D pattern and should be fitted to a human body which has 3D characteristics. Therefore, to design a pattern more effectively, the use of 3D information of a human body and the investigation of relationship between the 3D garment and 2D pattern are necessary. In this work, ruled surface method was used to reflect the 3D information of a human body for a pattern design. The images of the brassiere line on the woman's dress form were captured by phase-shifting projection moire system and the 3D information on the design line was obtained. 2D patterns on the various parts of the brassiere were developed directly from the 3D data by the ruled surface method. In addition, design line, the area and the amount of dart were quantified. And then we verify the appropriateness of the ruled surface method to the 2D pattern development by measuring the distribution of the space between women's figure and segmented clothing item. It was found that the ruled surface method is useful to transform the 3D design line to the 2D pattern, if we followed the steps suggested in this paper.

The purpose of this study is providing a usage of exterior, interior finish materials and color scheme for architectural design and the actual texture and pattern plans of finish materials from Le Corbuisier's work, Chapel Ronchamp. Chapel Ronchamp was analyzed to support the study for the interaction between texture usage and color expression. As a powerful design tool, texture, pattern and color of finish materials are very effective to alter the perception of the facade in the building. Most of architectural buildings, shapes and materials of elevations are monotonous and uniform. This study should be considered by details in the elevation of Chapel Ronchamp. As the part for developing and planning of architectural design, researching color plans and finish material is very important on real expression in the architectural space. As a result, this study will benefit in planning both the exterior and interior environments of color and finish material with texture and pattern.

The work focuses on the development of a Cu lead-frame with a single-sided adhesive tape for cost reduction and reliability improvement of LOC (lead on chip) package products, which are widely used for the plastic-encapsulation of memory chips. Most of memory chips are assembled by the LOC packaging process where the top surface of the chip is directly attached to the area of the lead-frame with a double-sided adhesive tape. However, since the lower adhesive layer of the double-sided adhesive tape reveals the disparity in the coefficient of thermal expansion from the silicon chip by more than 20 times, it often causes thermal displacement-induced damage of the IC pattern on the active chip surface during the reliability test. So, in order to solve these problems, in the resent work, the double-sided adhesive tape is replaced by a single-sided adhesive tape. The single-sided adhesive tape does net include the lower adhesive layer but instead, uses adhesive materials, which are filled in clear holes of the base film, just for the attachment of the lead-frame to the top surface of the memory chip. Since thermal expansion of the adhesive materials can be accommodated by the base film, memory product packaged using the lead-flame with the single-sided adhesive tape is shown to have much improved reliability. Author allied this invention to the Korea Patent Office for a patent (4-2000-00097-9).

In this work, handling of sapphire substrate for LED by using an electrostatic chuck was studied. The electrostatic chuck consisted of alumina dielectric, which was doped with 1.2 wt% $TiO_2$. As the volume resistivity of alumina dielectric was decreased, the electrostatic force was increased by Johnsen-Rahbek effect. The narrower width and gap size of electrode led to the stronger electrostatic force. When alumina dielectric with $3.20{\times}10^{11}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ resistivity and 3 mm width/1.5 mm gap sized electrode was used, the strongest electrostatic force in this work was obtained, which value reached to ~14.46 gf/$cm^2$ at 2.5 kV for 4-inch sapphire substrate. This results show that alumina electrostatic chuck with low resistivity and fine electrode pattern is suitable for handling of sapphire substrate for LED.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, issues related to quarantine are emerging. There are various infection prevention methods, but among them, it is certain to frequently disinfect the surface or the entire space of an object that has come into contact with the virus. However, the reality is that the number of times such disinfection is legally designated and the required number of personnel are very different depending on the building and facility. For this reason, there are no companies and systems that can professionally receive orders for disinfection work. In order to solve the aforementioned problems, this paper presents a method to design a disinfection service platform based on the MVC pattern, and implements the required functions based on this. Through this, it is possible to build a more systematic system, and it is hoped that it will be of great help to quarantine with an orderly process for disinfection work.
