The design and implementation of agents is an essential part of the development of immersive types of tutoring systems using virtual reality. This paper proposes several effective mechanisms for the design and implementation of agents. Unlike existing researches we focus on accommodating diversity of agents' behavior in the proposed mechanisms. First, we define the space object based on the field theory. The introduction of the field theory allows us to approach the space objects in a structural manner rather than by their classification. We can also achieve dynamic genesis and extinction of the space objects, and derivation of overall changes in spatio-temporal situations. Second, we classify the behavior of agents into composite behaviors and primitive actions in order to achieve its dynamic planning. Finally, we distribute the knowledge among agents and their associated objects according to their interrelations. By this distribution, we can handle the otherwise prohibitively large amount of knowledge related to agents' behaviors and construct a dynamic environment. By implementing a situation with agent's navigation across a composite space object, we demonstrate the effectiveness of these schemes presented above.

Today in Korea, various types of B2B or B2C businesses are carried out on the Internet and the catalog information is the molt important factor to make customers purchase the product. However, no case can be found where information is shared between the business partners, more specifically, each catalog supplier possesses data that are incompatible with others. Though the e-business market has rapidly expanded, it is still difficult for businesses to attract buyers unless an integrated system is provided for more fast and convenient B2B businesses. Such a systematic and integrated catalog system is highly demanded along with current database management system Therefore, this study suggests the E-Catalog system consists of a fixed and standardized catalog system offering product information and a network-based architecture offering products to customers through a search system. The proposed system also supports CRM (Customer Relation Management).

The object of this study is to obtain the optimum mix proportion of halogen free compound with flame resistance and, for the purpose, thermal/electrical characteristics test are conducted using compatibilizing agents, flame resistance agents, hydroxide aluminum, sunscreen, antioxidant and silicon oil on the base resin of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA). Existing compound method accompanies many requirements to be satisfied including a lot of addition of flame resistance agents, prohibition of impact on mixing capability with base and property and etc. In this study, different from the existing method, the optimum mix proportion is determined and experimented by adding nano clay. Oxygen index test shows no difference between specimens while T-6, T-9 shows oxygen index of 29[%] and 26[%], respectively. This is concluded that hydroxide aluminum, which is a flame resistance agent, leads low oxygen index. From UL94-V vertical flame resistance test, the combustion behavior is determined as V-0, Fail based on UL94-V decision criteria. Viscometry shows low measurements in specimens with separate addition of compatibilizing agents or nano clay. Volume resistivity test shows low measurement mainly in specimens without compatibilizing agents. Therefore, with the flame resistance compound shows better performance for thermal/electrical property and the optimum mix proportion are achieved among many existing materials.

Copper has attractive properties as a multi-level interconnection material due to lower resistivity and higher electromigration resistance as compared with Alumina and its alloy with Copper(0.5%). Among a variety of agents in Copper CMP slurry, $H_2O_2$ has commonly been used as the oxidizer However. $H_2O_2$ is so unstable that it requires stabilization to use as oxidizer Hence, stabilization of $H_2O_2$ is a vital process to get better yield in practical CMP process. In this article the stability of Hydrogen Peroxide as oxidizer of Copper CMP slurry has been investigated. When alumina abrasive was used, $\gamma$-particle Alumina C had a better stability than $\alpha$-particle abrasive. As adding KOH as pH buffering agent, $H_2O_2$ stability in slurry decreased. Urea hydrogen peroxide was used as oxidizer, an enhanced stability was gotten. When $H_3PO_4$ as $H_2O_2$ stabilizer was added, the decrease of $H_2O_2$ concentration in slurry became slower. Even though adding $H_2O_2$ in slurry after bead milling lead to better stability than in advance of bead milling, it had a lower dispersibility.

The ternary semiconducting compounds of the $A_{4}BX_{6}$(A=Cd, Zn, Hg; B=Si, Sn, Ge; X=S, Se, Te) type exhibit strong fluorescence and high photosensitivity in the visible and near infrared ranges, so these are supposed to be materials applicable to photoelectrical devices. These materials were synthesized and single crystals were first grown by Nitsche, who identified the crystal structure of the single crystals. In this paper. author describe the undoped and $Co^{2+}$-doped $Zn_{4}SnSe_{6}$ single crystals were grown by the chemical transport reaction(CTR) method using iodine of $6mg/cm^{3}$ as a transport agent. For the crystal. growth, the temperature gradient of the CTR furnace was kep at $700^{\circ}C$ for the source aone and at $820^{\circ}C$ for the growth zone for 7-days. It was found from the analysis of x-ray diffraction that undoped and $Co^{2+}$-doped $Zn_{4}SnSe_{6}$ compounds have a monoclinic structure. The optical absorption spectra obtained near the fundamental absorption edge showed that these compounds have a direct energy gaps. These temperature dependence of the optical energy gap were closely investigated over the temperature range 10[K]~300[K]

This paper proposes a routing algorithm that determines the optimal path using deep reinforcement learning in software-defined networks. The deep reinforcement learning model for learning is based on DQN, the inputs are the current network state, source, and destination nodes, and the output returns a list of routes from source to destination. The routing task is defined as a discrete control problem, and the quality of service parameters for routing consider delay, bandwidth, and loss rate. The routing agent classifies the appropriate service class according to the user's quality of service profile, and converts the service class that can be provided for each link from the current network state collected from the SDN. Based on this converted information, it learns to select a route that satisfies the required service level from the source to the destination. The simulation results indicated that if the proposed algorithm proceeds with a certain episode, the correct path is selected and the learning is successfully performed.

This paper considers the cooperative control problem for multiple leaders and a single follower with interactions. The leaders are controllable, and the follower has interactions with all leaders and is controlled by the interactions. Then, we study the cooperative control problem that achieves the consensus by controlling the leaders. The leaders and the follower are modeled by the single-integrator and the double-integrator, respectively, and it is assumed that the interactions have the nonlinearities. The leaders can estimate the interaction between the follower and exchange the estimated information with neighbors. Then, this paper proposes the consensus-based cooperative control algorithm using the information exchange of the estimated interactions and the virtual velocity variables to achieve the velocity consensus. We analyze the convergence of the agents to the common state based on the Lasalle's Invaraince Principle. Finally, we provide the numerical example to validate the theoretical results.

구매 의사 결정 과정에서 구매자는 상품 정보와 가격 정보를 필요로 한다. 웹상의 판매자 위주의 시장으로부터 필요한 정보를 수집하려면, 구매자는 매번 구매 때마다 판매자의 사이트를 검색해야 한다. 심지어 구매자가 거래하고 있는 판매자로부터 과거에 구매한 경험이 있는 아이템을 구매하는 경우에도 마찬가지이다. 현재의 전자상거래 환경에서는, 이렇게 기억을 활용하지 않고(memory-less) 검색에만 의존하는 구매자의 행태가 일반적이다. 이 현상을 조직의 구매 경험이 구성원들에게 공유되어야 하는 기업 구매자의 경우에 있어서는 대단히 낭비적인 요소로 작용될 것이다. 구매자 에이전트에게 기억 능력을 부여하려면, 구매자 에이전트와 판매자 에이전트가 갖고 있는 정보간의 일관성을 유지해 주어야 할 필요가 있다. 최소의 노력으로 일관성을 유지하려면, 구매자 에이전트와 판매자 에이전트간에 체계적인 갱신 프로토콜이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 6가지의 프로토콜(Instantaneous Pull, Periodic Pull, Instantaneous Push, Periodic Push, Instantaneous Solicited Push, Periodic Solicited Push)을 비교하고, 에이전트의 아키텍처와 KQML/XML에 기반 한 메시지 구조를 제시한다. 이들 프로토콜의 상황에 따른 수행 성능 평가가 진행 중이며, 이러한 상황에 적응할 수 있는 에이전트의 프로토타입이 현재 개발 중이다.

The tailored surface modification of electrode materials is crucial to realize the wanted electronic and electrochemical properties. In this regard, a dexterous carbon encapsulation technique can be one of the most essential preparation methods for the electrode materials for lithium rechargeable batteries. For this purpose, DL-malic acid ($C_4H_6O_5$) was here used as the carbon source enabling an amorphous carbon layer to be formed on the surface of Si nanoparticles at enough low temperature to maintain their own physical or chemical properties. Various structural characterizations proved that the bulk structure of Si doesn't undergo any discernible change except for the evolution of C-C bond attributed to the formed carbon layer on the surface of Si. The improved electrochemical performance of the carbon-encapsulated Si compared to Si can be attributed to the enhanced electrical conductivity by the surface carbon layer as well as its role as a buffering agent to absorb the volume expansion of Si during lithiation and delithiation.

ZnO crystals with different morphologies are synthesized through thermal evaporation of the mixture of Zn and Cu powder in air at atmospheric pressure. ZnO crystals with wire shape are synthesized when the process is performed at $1,000^{\circ}C$, while tetrapod-shaped ZnO crystals begin to form at $1,100^{\circ}C$. The wire-shaped ZnO crystals form even at $1,000^{\circ}C$, indicating that Cu acts as a reducing agent. As the temperature increases to $1,200^{\circ}C$, a large quantity of tetrapod-shaped ZnO crystals form and their size also increases. In addition to the tetrapods, rod-shaped ZnO crystals are observed. The atomic ratio of Zn and O in the ZnO crystals is approximately 1:1 with an increasing process temperature from $1,000^{\circ}C$ to $1,200^{\circ}C$. For the ZnO crystals synthesized at $1,000^{\circ}C$, no luminescence spectrum is observed. A weak visible luminescence is detected for the ZnO crystals prepared at $1,100^{\circ}C$. Ultraviolet and visible luminescence peaks with strong intensities are observed in the luminescence spectrum of the ZnO crystals formed at $1,200^{\circ}C$.
