In this paper, definitions of biyoul and value of bi in elementary mathematics in Korea are critically analysed. And identity of halpunri is reviewed. Regarding biyoul, it is suggested that the use of term 'biyoul' is restricted to such cases when the quantity to be compared and the quantity to be a base have same measuring unit, without consider ing biyoul in terms of two numbers. it is suggested to use "the number which express how many times the quantity to be compared is contained by the quantity to be a base is called biyoul." as a definition of biyoul. It is suggested to use "value of bi A : B is A/B" as a definition of value of bi. Halpunri is a variation of halbunri, which is coined by putting hal, pun, and ri together in purpose of using in school mathematics. The tem1 corresponding halpunri is 'bohap', however, in this paper it is suggested to use halpunri after defining it instead of using bohap. In that halpunri is an acclimatized term of bohap, and considered as a biyoul not as a way to indicate biyoul, it is suggested to use "biyoul when the quantity to be a base is considered 10." as a definition of halpunri. It is suggested to see hal, pun, and ri are units for halpunri, and call decimal 0.1 expressing biyoul 1 hal, decimal 0.01 expressing biyoul 1 pun, decimal 0.001 expressing biyoul 1 ri respectively.

In this paper, we proposed and implemented a GUI-based system to recognize and record measured values of digital instruments in the industrial site through image processing. Unlike the existing vehicle license plate recognition system, the measured values of the measuring instrument are displayed on the LCD screen as digital numbers. So, the proposed system considers the decimal point, a negative sign, light reflected by LCD protective glass, and various disturbance factors. We used blob-labeling technique to recognize the numbers displayed on the LCD screen, the recognized number images were determined as certain numbers through the template matching, and recognized values were recorded in the storage device with measurement time. Therefore, the proposed system in this paper would reduce the burden of writing when recording the measured values of the inside/outside diameter or height of the product in the industrial site, so effective and errorless process management in production process is possible by preventing errors in recording measurements when written by hand.

The purpose of this study is to examine not only students' cognition in the mathematical error-finding activity of the concept of irrational numbers, but also the students' learning stance regarding the use of errors and a teacher's questioning strategies that lead to changes in the level of mathematical discourse. To this end, error-finding individual activities, group activities, and additional interviews were conducted with 133 middle school students, and students' cognition and the teacher's questioning strategies for changes in students' learning stance and levels of mathematical discourse were analyzed. As a result of the study, students' cognition focuses on the symbolic representation of irrational numbers and the representation of decimal numbers, and they recognize the existence of irrational numbers on a number line, but tend to have difficulty expressing a number line using figures. In addition, the importance of the teacher's leading and exploring questioning strategy was observed to promote changes in students' learning stance and levels of mathematical discourse. This study is valuable in that it specified the method of using errors in mathematics teaching and learning and elaborated the teacher's questioning strategies in finding mathematical errors.

In this study, we hope to reveal specialized content knowledge(SCK) and its features necessary to analyze student's errors and difficulties about the concept of irrational numbers. The instruments and interview were administered to 3 in-service mathematics teachers with various education background and teaching experiments. The results of this study are as follows. First, specialized content knowledge(SCK) were characterized by the fixation to symbolic representation like roots when they analyzed the concentration and overlooking of the representations of irrational numbers. Secondly, we observed the centralization tendency on symbolic representation and the little attention to other representations as the standard of judgment about irrational numbers. Thirdly, In-service teachers were influenced by content of students' error when they analyzed the error and difficulties of students. Lately, we confirmed that the content knowledge about the viewpoint of procept and actual infinity of irrational numbers are most important during the analyzing process.

This study was to suggest the improvement and the application of KDC 6 for classifying children's books by the literature review and survey. First, it was suggested to shorten the classification numbers by the divisions and subdivisions and to expand the classification numbers by sub-subdivisions according to the library-specific classification policy, using the subject statistics of the children's books held by 20 public libraries affiliated in Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education and representative C libraries. Second, the knowledge picture books and the fairy tales were suggested to be classified according to its subject, and the fairy tales in each country were suggested to be classified by adding sub-subdivisions and genre subdivisions. Third, it was suggested to shelve by collection and location codes that were distinguished by the ages and the reading level for user, to prepare a standard guideline for shelving, and to implement the regular user education about the classification system. This study could contribute to the development of the KDC abridged version for children's books in the future.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of calculators as a cognitive tool rather than calculating tool in learning elementary school mathematics. The calculator activities on multiplying two numbers ending with 0s or two decimal fractions and mixed four operations were developed, and exploratory lessons with the activities were implemented to three 3rd graders and two 5th graders. The results were shown that calculators provided an alternative effective learning environment: students were able to use heuristic thinking, reason inductively and successfully investigate principles of mathematics through the pattern recognition. And finally, we discussed the heuristic method through utilizing calculators.

This study reviews various kinds of records filing systems, which function as a basic fundamental to effective records management. The purposes, methods and characteristics of Alphabetic, geographic, numeric, subject, and combined filing systems are examined. The alphabetic filing method uses letters of the alphabet to determine the order of names of people and companies. In subject filing the subjects are filed in alphabetic order. In numeric filing, numbers representing names or subjects are used. When records are requested by place or location rather than by individual or business name, geographic filing is advantageous.

Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is defined as the practice of imperceptible altering a digital content to embed a message using watermarking in the encryption domain. This protocol is acknowledged as one kind of copyright protection techniques in electronic commerce. Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is fundamentally based on public-key cryptosystem that is operating using the algebraic property of an integer. However, in general usage, digital contents which are handled in watermarking scheme mostly exist as real numbers in frequency domain through DCT, DFT, DWT, etc. Therefore, in order to use the watermarking scheme in a cryptographic protocol, digital contents that exist as real number must be transformed into integer type through preprocessing beforehand. In this paper, we presented a new watermarking scheme in an encrypted domain in an image that is based on the block-DCT framework and homomorphic encryption method for buyer-seller watermarking protocol. We applied integral-processing in order to modify the decimal layer. And we designed a direction-adaptive watermarking scheme by analyzing distribution property of the frequency coefficients in a block using JND threshold. From the experimental results, the proposed scheme was confirmed to have a good robustness and invisibility.
