Recent flat-panel displays have become increasingly complicated to facilitate multiple display functions. In particular, the form of multilayered architectures for next-generation displays makes precise three-dimensional alignment of multiple panels a challenge. In this paper, a diffractive optical alignment marker is proposed to address the problem of three-dimensional alignment of distant dual panels beyond the depth-of-focus of a vision camera. The diffractive marker is effective to analyze the positional correlation of distant dual panels. The possibility of diffractive alignment in multilayer display fabrication is testified with numerical simulation and a proof-of-concept experiment.

The purpose of this study is to design hypertext-based linear displays for an online thesaurus in librarianship and information science with the aid of ISO and ANSI/NISO thesaurus standards. This study starts with the assumptions that hypertext-based online thesauri would provide a convenient and useful subject retrieval tool to both indexers and searchers of information and become starting point for the study of thesauri searching patterns, which were difficult with printed thesauri. For this study, thesaurus of librarianship and information science was stored in MS ACCESS 97 as a relational database and, for the conjunction of a relational database with World Wide Web, technics of ASP(Active Server Pages) were applied under Windows NT operation.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of OPAC displays of three children's libraries in Korea: Seoul Children's Library, Cheongju Miracle Library, and Yongsan Public Library. 'OPAC Display Guidelines( Draft)' Published by IFLA is used to examine the details of OPAC displays, and to suggest their improvement. Discussed are such topics as the features of basic and detailed search screens, the brief display of search results, the arrangement and full display of bibliographic records, and the use of terms and labels. All three libraries offer their users the same KOLAS' OPAC, only designed to serve general users rather than children, i.e., their primary user group. They show some weakness, and much improvement is urgently required to satisfy specifically the needs and information seeking behavior of children.

The parking management system can increase driver's convenience with detailed parking information service in the parking lot. At the same time, parking management system consumes non-negligible electrical energy with large amount of sensors, displays and control modules. With the increase in the demand for green and sustainable building design all over the world, it becomes a meaningful issue for parking management system to reduce operating power. This paper presents the preliminary design and estimated results of a parking management system which is optimized to reduce the power consumption mainly on detectors and displays. The system design is based on pre-developed wireless parking detectors, Park Tile and Park Disk. The system has a number of parking space detectors, vehicle count detectors, information displays, guidance terminals and other control units. We have performed system architecture design, communication network design, parking information service scenario planning, battery life regulation and at last operating power estimation. The estimated operating power was 0.93KW per parking-slot, which is 20% of traditional systems. The estimated annual maintenance cost was 18% of traditional systems.

Flat panel display devices are mainly used as information display devices in the 21st century. The worldwide waste flat panel displays are expected at 2-3 million units but most of them are land-filled for want of a proper recycling technology More specifically, rare earth metals of La and Eu are used as fluorescent materials of Cold Cathode Flourscent Lamp(CCFL)s in the waste flat panel displays and they are critically vulnerable and irreplaceable strategic mineral resources. At present, most of the waste CCFLs are disposed of by land-filling and incineration and proper recovery of 80-plus tons per annum of the rare earth fluorescent materials will significantly contribute to steady supply of them. A dearth of Korean domestic research results on recovery and recycling of rare earth elements in the CCFLs prompts to initiate this status report on overseas research trends and noteworthy research results in related fields.

Pen-input displays, such as LCD tablets and tablet PCs, are already popular for its usability in CAD design, in particular. in concept design phase. We propose an intuitive B-Spline modification scheme that can be used for the CAD systems targeting for such devices. Differently from the control point based modification schemes for the B-splines, our scheme relates user pen marking to determining the final shape of the target curve and surface. This, eventually, reduces time for interacting with the shape parameters (i.e., by control points or direct manipulators), which has been regarded as an unavoidable routine tasks for design. To prove its usability, we made an experiments with selected subjects who have been working for industrial design.

In this paper a Duty Effective Overlap Scanning method (DEOS) for the improvement of driving efficiency of LC displays which have the RMS voltage responding characteristics is proposed and new processing method of data signals for optimum application of this method is also proposed. Proposed method has a few advantages such as the increment of duty ratio the increment of driving power loaded on LC cell and the decrement of RMS voltage error rate caused by signal attenuation on electrodes composing of display when compared with the conventional method which is called as optimum voltage amplitude selection method. And also by adopting new data signal processing method which has 3 kinds of voltage levels additional advantage much improving crosstalk phenomenon which is the most serious problems of simple matrix structured display is obtained. For the characteristic estimation new mathematical representation for new overlap scanning method and data signal processing method are induced and defined. And by the defined formula and simulation the characteristics of the proposed method and the conventional method are compared and analyzed. As a result of estimation this new method being able to optimize the overlap rate of scan signal and using 3 levels of data signals has the characteristic which can improve the driving efficiency of LC displays.

A questionnaire survey was carried out in order to understand the discomfort when people experience in reading Korean characters of displays. In the survey, 499 respondents (276 males and 223 females), whose ages ranged from 10s to 70s, participated, while 19.6% of the respondents were over 60 years old. The mean visual acuity was 0.93, while it decreased as the age increases from 40s. Approximately 41.4% of the respondents, 98% of them were over 40s, reported that they experienced presbyopia. It was found that the percentage of the respondents who experienced the discomfort much in reading Korean characters significantly increased as the age increases from 40s. The respondents over 40s reported different discomfort experiences according to the type of displays. It was found that the respondents thought that the main reason for the discomfort in reading is related to the character size. The survey results showed that the Korean text in the displays should be designed to be easily readable by the main users.

Menu-driven interfaces are frequently employed for user interfaces on many electronic products. Due to space constraint, a single or multi-line display is popularly used to show menu items unlike the software interfaces. Single or multi-line display present 8 .approx. 21. characters on an LCD screen and the user selects items using a series of button pushes. Multi-line displays are different from the single-line ones in the following aspects. First, they can present multiple line of information at the same time. Second, they can present menu items in a various way compared to single-line ones. However, due to their space constraint multi-line displays have many limitations compared to ordinary displays which usually use 14" screens. Therefore, guidelines are necessary for designing efficent multi-line display menus interfaces. In this study, a human factors experiment was conducted to examine the effects of three design variables which might affect the usability of a multi-line display menus. Factors investigated include menu structure, number of lines on the display, and item presentation method. Usability of the multi-line display menus was measured quantitatively in terms of four different aspects: speed, accuracy, inefficiency and preference. The analysis of variance was used not only to analyze the main effects of the factors and their interactions but also to see the differences between the single-line display menus and multi-line display ones. A set of design guidelines drawn from this study can be applied to the design of the user interfaces of a various types of electronic consumer products.
