User authentication using fingerprint information provides convenience as well as strong security. However, serious problems may occur if fingerprint information stored for user authentication is used illegally by a different person since it cannot be changed freely as a password due to a limited number of fingers. Recently, research in fuzzy fingerprint vault system has been carried out actively to safely protect fingerprint information in a fingerprint authentication system. In addition, research to solve the fingerprint alignment problem by applying a geometric hashing technique has also been carried out. In this paper, we propose the hardware architecture for a geometric hashing based fuzzy fingerprint vault system that consists of the software module and hardware module. The hardware module performs the matching for the transformed minutiae in the enrollment hash table and verification hash table. On the other hand, the software module is responsible for hardware feature extraction. We also propose the hardware architecture which parallel processing technique is applied for high speed processing. Based on the experimental results, we confirmed that execution time for the proposed hardware architecture was 0.24 second when number of real minutiae was 36 and number of chaff minutiae was 200, whereas that of the software solution was 1.13 second. For the same condition, execution time of the hardware architecture which parallel processing technique was applied was 0.01 second. Note that the proposed hardware architecture can achieve a speed-up of close to 100 times compared to a software based solution.

Economic development involves increase in life expectancy as well as human health care. Consequently, demand for fish meal and fish oil is rapidly growing. In particular, Krill (Eupausia superba) oil product is in high demand due to its rich unsaturated-fatty acid, and thus stable supplies are necessary in the krill oil market. It is required for captured krills to be immediately frozen and stored during ship transport, since proteins of the krill are quickly denatured in natural temperature condition. However, the transportation cost has been sharply increased, which encourages researchers to involve in studies for development of efficient oil extraction process. In this study, a solid/liquid separation technique on boat for the krill oil was developed through triple separation tests using only a separator or using either brush or crusher prior to the separator. The separation tests revealed that the efficiency were 46.2, 60.2 and 60.4 % by the separator, combination with brush, and combination with crusher, respectively. In addition, it was found that byproduct, extracted cake, derived from the separation process could be used as a feed stuff. These results suggest that smashing using the brush or crusher prior to the separator is more efficient than using only the separator.

In order to prepare the interchange between and the unification of North and South Korea, it is needed to establish the development direction of irrigation reservoirs and formulate technological and political directions for preparing effectively against the demand of agricultural countermeasure information like the analysis of rural comprehensive development projects and the present state of agricultural land of North Korea. The purpose of this research is to construct the database of agricultural productive infrastructures and analyze the present state of irrigation reservoirs of the Yeseong River Basin in North Korea using SPOT-5 satellite imagery. As a result of the research, we were able to not only design classification items but establish method and precedure for producing thematic maps related agricultural productive infrastructure without on-site survey by analyzing present condition related to agricultural water of the basin. And we intend to provide basic data for analyzing suitabile locations of irrigation reservoirs in the basin by performing basin extraction, volume evaluation of the existing reservoirs, scale cultivative lands, benefit area fo the reservoirs, and the existing agricultural water system. In addition, we were able to understand the problem and limit in constructing the database related agricultural productive facilities.

This research uses a distributed model, Vflo which can devide subwater shed into square grids and interpret diverse topographic elements which are obtained through GIS processing. To use the distributed model, soil wetness information was extracted through Tasseled Cap transformation from LANDSAT 7 $ETM^+$ satellite data and then they were applied to each cell of the test area, unlike previous studies in which have applied average soil condition of river basin uniformly regardless of space-difference in subwater shed. As a resut of the research, it was ascertained the spatial change of soil wetness is suited to the distributed model in a subwater shed. In addition, we derived out a relation between soil wetness of image collection time and 10 days-preceded rainfall and improved the feasibility of weights obtained by the relation equation.

This study was to investigate the practicality and functionality of water lily(Nymphaea tetragona) leaves as a natural dye resource while searching for various dyeing methods to utilize them. Effect of dyeing condition including methanol ratio of dyebath, dyeing temperature and time, mordanting method, etc were investigated. Colorants were prepared by extraction in methanol and followed drying process. When composing 30% of methanol in the dyebath, better dyeuptake and uniform dyeing were resulted. Pre-mordanting method gave better results in terms of dye uptake than post-mordanting method on the wool fabrics. Fe and Ti were effective for increasing the dye uptake on the silk fabrics. Depending on mordant type and mordanting method, the dyed fabrics got various color showing green, khaki, brownish yellow, dark brown, dark gray and so on. As for color fastness, the silk fabrics dyed with water lily extract showed relatively high rating in light fastness(3~4, 4~5 rating), washing fastness(4~5, 5 rating), and rubbing fastness(4, 4~5 rating). The silk and wool fabrics dyed with water lily leaves extract showed excellent antimicrobial activity over 98% of bacterial reduction rate against Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae. It was confirmed that water lily leaves can be used as a natural dye resource for dyeing wool and silk fabrics because its colorants showed excellent affinity and antimicrobial functionality as well as good colorfastness.

For-${\alpha}$-APM was efficiently prepared by the reaction of For-Asp anhydride and Phe-OMe in methylethylketone, $CH_3CN$, and in water. The selective recovery of For-${\alpha}$-APM from the resulting For-${\alpha}$-APM and For-${\beta}$-APM mixture was possible via repetitive extraction at constant pH of 4.00. The oxidative deformylation was successfully performed by using several oxidants including $H_2_O2$/THF, sodium percarbonate, and $H_2_O2$/HCl/MeOH giving APM in high yields. The efficiency of the oxidative deformylation was raised in acidic condition for all the deformylation reactions.

Continuous fermentations were performed in order to investigate the effect of culture condition on the yeast RNA accumulation and autolysis efficiency. The content of intracellular RNA increased with increasing dilution rate, showing its maximum value of 14.8% at D=0.35 $h^{-1}$. Also, both RNA productivity and specific RNA productivity tended to increase with the increase of dilution rate. The maximum biomass was obtained at $30^{\circ}C$ in the fixed dilution rate of 0.2 $h^{-1}$, whereas the maximum RNA content appeared at the lowest temperature experimented. Growth rate affected significantly on the yeast autolysis efficiency such that the extraction ratio(TN/TN) increased with increasing growth rate, whereas the hydrolysis ratio(AN/TN) was reversed. On the other hand, its efficiency was little affected by cultivation temperature.

Image registration is one of the critical techniques of image mosaic which has many applications such as generating panoramas, video monitoring, image rendering and reconstruction, etc. The fundamental tasks of image registration are point features extraction and tracking which take much computation time. KLT(Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi) feature tracker has proposed for extracting and tracking features through image sequences. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the usage of effective and robust KLT feature detector and tracker for an image registration using the sequence image frames captured by UAV video camera. In result, by using iterative implementation of the KLT tracker, the features extracted from the first frame of image sequences could be successfully tracked through all frames. The process of feature tracking in the various frames with rotation, translation and small scaling could be improved by a careful choice of the process condition and KLT pyramid implementation.

This paper presents the analysis condition of remediation technique of contaminated fine-grained soil and physical properties of bio-degradable drain for analysis site applicability using bio-degradable drain method. As the result, two kinds of developed degradable drains (cylindricality shaped and harmonica shaped) are satisfied the Korean Industrial Standard. And the cylindricality shaped drain has an excellent discharge capacity than that of another one. By the results of laboratory test, the citric acid is chosen as the washing agent because it has low toxicity, so it is able to minimize harmful influence to environment. Furthermore the subject contaminants were selected as Cd, Cu and Pb. Based on the field pilot test results, the most remedial efficiency is the use of reactive material applied in bio-degradable drain method with the process of injecting the washing agent and extraction of contaminated fluid.

The $Papillon-Lef\`{e}vre$ Syndrome(PLS), a disease with autosomal recessive inheritance, is characterized by diffuse hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles, mostly prepubertal periodontitis and premature loss of primary and permanent dentition. The etiology of the destruction of periodontal tissues has not been completely clarified. In recent years, two main factors are suggested to be responsible for tooth loss ; firstly, the presence of gram negative microorganisms in the periodontal pockets of the patients. The other factor suggested is cellular deficiency in chemotaxic and phagocytic function of neutrophylic granulocytes. Resent data suggestes that mechanical debridement in conjunction with antibiotic therapy may be successful in periodontal management of $Papillon-Lef\`{e}vre$ Syndrome, particularly if administered early. In this study, a $Papillon-Lef\`{e}vre$ Syndrome patient was studied clinically, radiologically, histopathologically and microbiologically. 5 years female patient with gingival swelling and destruction of periodontal structure on the whole dentition were examined and palmar and plantar hyperkeratosis were can be seen. On microbiological analysis, Actinobacillus actino-mycetemcomitans was performed. Concurrently, the children recieved extraction of maxillary anterior teeth and construction of removable prosthetis. The combination of professional oral hygiene care and antibiotic therapy improved the dermatologic and periodontal condition.
