In this paper, in order to enable zero-layer FTP cell using only 5V MOS devices on the basis of $0.13{\mu}m$ BCD process, the tunnel oxide thickness is used as the gate oxide thickness of $125{\AA}$ of the 5V MOS device at 82A. The HDNW layer, which is the default in the BCD process, is used. Thus, the proposed zero layer FTP cell does not require the addition of tunnel oxide and DNW mask. Also, from the viewpoint of memory IP design, a single memory structure which is used only for trimming analog circuit of PMIC chip is used instead of the dual memory structure dividing into designer memory area and user memory area. The start-up circuit of the BGR (Bandgap Reference Voltage) generator circuit is designed to operate in the voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V. On the other hand, when the 64-bit FTP memory IP is powered on, the internal read signal is designed to maintain the initial read data at 00H. The layout size of the 64-bit FTP IP designed using the $0.13-{\mu}m$ Magnachip process .is $485.21{\mu}m{\times}440.665{\mu}m$($=0.214mm^2$).

Pig small intestine not only is used as food but also for sausage casings production in many countries worldwide. However, it is well recognized that the small intestine is important source of spoilage and pathogenic bacteria. The present study aimed at investigating the effects of different washing and packaging methods on the changes of microbial levels and physicochemical characteristics of pig small intestine. After collecting and trimming off of visible fats, the pig small intestine samples were treated with; (i) different packaging methods: aerobic packaging (AP), skin packaging (SP), and vacuum packaging (VP); and (ii) washing with different concentrations of acetic acid. The treated samples were then stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 1, 4, 7, and 10 d. At 1-d storage, higher pH value was found in the AP-treated samples, however, after 7 to 10 days the samples treated with SP had higher values compared to the ones treated with AP and VP (p<0.05). Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances values were higher in the AP-treated samples than those of the SP- and VP- treated samples at 7-d storage (p<0.05). At $10^{th}$ d, total plate counts (TPC) were higher in the control than in the acetic acid-washed samples (p<0.05). Additionally, the TPC was lower in the SP- and VP-treated samples than the AP-treated samples at 7-d storage (p<0.05). These obtained results suggest that the applications of washing with acetic acid solution and/or SP and VP methods could be an effective way to extend the shelf-life of pig small intestine during cold distribution.

The purpose of this study is to clarify what is the unique garden making methods of Enshu Kobori by surveying and analyzing that existing garden of Enshu Kobori is different from the existing Japanese garden that had been built up to such a period. Enshu Kobori breaks away from the conventional frame that was established with the gardens of existing Karesansui style(枯山水樣式) with the materials of rocks and sands. Enshu Kobori is produced to make harmony with the rocks by trimming the Rhododendron indicum and this type of making method of Enshu was originated from the aesthetic principle of kireisabi. Due to this type of cause, the garden of Enshu Kobori displays splendid and yet a simple beauty of gardening. With respect to the establishment of a garden unique to Enshu Kobori as such, it seemed to have the cultural background expanded with the cultural perception and official family class of the edo period where it strived for new things. Therefore, Enshu Kobori was designed as the ornament-oriented garden rather than the garden that requires direct ceremonial act. The subject sites for this study are Raikyuji, Daichiji, Shodenji, Nanzenji Hojo and Konchiin as intended by Enshu Kobori. Contents of the study contemplate the location of garden, factors to introduce the garden, structure of garden, background of garden, use of stones, plants and scenic views to clarify the uniqueness of the Enshu Kobori garden.

In the stone-lined tombs from Cheongyang Rokpyeong-ri site, several stone-lined tombs corresponding to the Three Kingdoms Period, Unified Silla Period and Goryeo Dynasty were excavated. In this study, the stone properties of petrological, mineralogical and geochemical characteristics from 15 stone-lined tombs were analyzed, the rock species and occupation rate were reviewed, also the provenance area was interpreted. There are five types of rocks used as members of the tombs, including black sandstone, greywacke, slate, conglomerate and gneiss. As a result of magnetic susceptibilities, the rocks of the tombs and presumed provenance are all shown in the same range, and the similarity between the tombs and the source area is high in geochemical behavior characteristics. The stone properties of the tombs are the same as the presumed provenance rocks and is distributed within a 500m around the bedrock of the tombs in the excavation site, so it seems that self-sufficiency was possible on the site without a special procurement system. These stones are interpreted to have been constructed through some trimming without any special technique, but some stone tombs have been confirmed to used homogeneous black sandstone at the bottom of the tombs, so it is believed that there were artificial selection of stones.

This study was examined for investigating the quality changes of spring kimchi cabbage under various treatments (pre-drying/pre-cooling, packaging types, and stacking and loading in container and pallete in the storage room) during cold storage. The results showed that control (upward stacking without pre-drying/pre-cooling and HDPE or PVC film cover) was increased significantly in weight loss and trimming loss, compared to other treatments such as DPDH (downard stacking + pre-drying + HDPE), DPDP (downard stacking + pre-drying + PVC), DPCH (downnard stacking + pre-cooling + HDPE), and UPCH (upward stacking + pre-cooling +HDPE) during storage for three months. In Sensory evaluation, judging from marketable properties, the desirable appearance of spring kimchi cabbage with the modified pallet-unit MA packed, PE, and PVC film wrapping could be maintained until 9 weeks after pre-drying/pre-cooling. Meanwhile, the control without any treatments after 6 weeks, the sensory score was declined, significantly. In general, the low temperature (10℃ and 2℃) of pre-treatment with combination of plastic film packaging in spring kimchi cabbage storage could inhibit the physiological activity and reduce the direct exposure of environmental cold air in the storage. Therefore, these two variables were the key points for extending the shelf-life of spring kimchi cabbage.

Objective: For decades, LYD ([Landrace×Yorkshire] ♀×Duroc ♂) pigs are the most commonly-used commercial breed for meat production in Korea. Recently, due to the increasing demand for premium pork, the National Institute of Animal Science (Korea) has synthesized a novel pig breed named Woori Heukdon (WHD). This study aimed at comparing the carcass traits, meat yield and quality characteristics between the LYD and WHD pigs under identical rearing condition. Methods: The WHD and LYD pigs (n = 15 each) were reared under identical conditions and fed the same commercial diet until reaching recommended market weight (100 to 120 kg). After slaughter, the carcasses were evaluated for traits and meat yield, and the meat quality was assessed on shoulder butt and belly cuts. Results: Although no significant differences (p>0.05) occurred in slaughter weight between two pig types, WHD had a lower meat yield (by about 6 kg corresponding to approximately 7%) compared to the LYD pigs (p<0.05). The WHD had a higher fat content (by 4.26% and 13.52% in the shoulder butt and belly, respectively) compared to those of LYD pigs (p<0.05). The WHD meat showed a lower cooking loss and higher a* (redness) value (p<0.05). The WHD belly had a significantly (p<0.05) higher oleic acid content and concentrations of nonanal, octanal and decanal associated with fatty odor while, the LYD meat had a higher number of pyrazines associated with roasty odor. Regarding sensory quality, higher flavor, juiciness, and acceptability higher scores were given for the WHD meat than for the LYD meat (p<0.05). Conclusion: Under identical rearing conditions the WHD exhibited a better meat quality and sensory properties. However, the use of this diet resulted in a high fat level that may be associated with high trimming loss for the WHD.

In this paper, we designed a 4Kb poly-fuse OTP IP (Intellectual Property) required for analog circuit trimming and calibration. In order to reduce the BL resistance of the poly-fuse OTP cell, which consists of an NMOS select transistor and a poly-fuse link, the BL stacked metal 2 and metal 3. In order to reduce BL routing resistance, the 4Kb cells are divided into two sub-block cell arrays of 64 rows × 32 rows, with the BL drive circuit located between the two 2Kb sub-block cell arrays, which are split into top and bottom. On the other hand, in this paper, we propose a core circuit for an OTP cell that uses one poly-fuse link to one select transistor. In addition, in the early stages of OTP IP development, we proposed a data sensing circuit that considers the case where the resistance of the unprogrammed poly-fuse can be up to 5kΩ. It also reduces the current flowing through an unprogrammed poly-fuse link in read mode to 138㎂ or less. The poly-fuse OTP cell size designed with DB HiTek 90nm CMOS process is 11.43㎛ × 2.88㎛ (=32.9184㎛2), and the 4Kb poly-fuse OTP IP size is 432.442㎛ × 524.6㎛ (=0.227mm²).

In this paper, we designed a low-area 32-bit PF (Poly-fuse) OTP IP, a non-volatile memory that stores data required for analog circuit trimming and calibration. Since one OTP cell is constructed using two PFs in one select transistor, a 1cell-2bit multibit PF OTP cell that can program 2bits of data is proposed. The bitcell size of the proposed 1cell-2bit PF OTP cell is 1/2 of 12.69㎛ × 3.48㎛ (=44.161㎛2), reducing the cell area by 33% compared to that of the existing PF OTP cell. In addition, in this paper, a new 1 row × 32 column cell array circuit and core circuit (WL driving circuit, BL driving circuit, BL switch circuit, and DL sense amplifier circuit) are proposed to meet the operation of the proposed multbit cell. The layout size of the 32bit OTP IP using the proposed multibit cell is 238.47㎛ × 156.52㎛ (=0.0373㎛2) is reduced by about 33% compared that of the existing 32bit PF OTP IP using a single bitcell, which is 386.87㎛ × 144.87㎛ (=0.056㎛2). The 32-bit PF OTP IP, designed with 10 years of data retention time in mind, is designed with a minimum programmed PF sensing resistance of 10.5㏀ in the detection read mode and of 5.3 ㏀ in the read mode, respectively, as a result of post-layout simulation of the test chip.

To evaluate the quality changes of Kimchi cabbage, it was packaged in the modified atmosphere (MA) after hot-air surface drying (HASD) or differential pressure precooling (PC) and stored at 0℃ for 45 days. The respiration rate after PC was lower than that after HASD, but they were not significantly different. In both HASD and PC, the ethylene production rate was lower than that of the control group. The oxygen concentration decreased and the carbon dioxide concentration increased according to the storage period, but they did not show significant differences. The change of trimming loss and weight loss tended to increase as the storage period. No significant difference was shown between HASD and PC, but the corresponding result values of the treatment groups were significantly lower than those of the control group. There was no significant difference in electrolyte conductivity and texture between treatment groups, but HASD and PC were superior to the control group. These results suggest that HASD will be available on preprocessing method for long-term storage and freshness of Kimchi cabbage together with PC.
