This paper describes a dynamic spectroscopic ellipsometry based on dual-wavelength calibration. DSE provides ellipsometric parameters at rates above 20 Hz, but the interferometer's sensitivity to temperature makes it difficult for that proposed system to maintain stable 𝜟k over long periods of time. To solve this problem, we set up an additional path in the DSE to perform simulations of the polarization phase calibration method using dual wavelengths. Through simulation, we were able to eliminate most of the polarization phase error and maintain a stable 𝜟k in the long-term stability experiment for 10 hours. This is the result that the 𝜟k stability of the proposed system is improved tens of times compared to the existing system.

Since its first demonstration as a practical genome editing tool in the early 2010s, the use of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) along with the endonuclease Cas9 (CRISPR/Cas9) has become an essential choice for generating targeted mutations. Due to its relative simplicity and cost-effectiveness compared to other molecular scissors, i.e., zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) and transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN), the CRISPR/Cas9 system has been shown to have a massive influence on genetic studies regardless of the biological kingdom. Although the system is in the process of being established, numerous protocols have already been released for the system and there have been various topics of CRISPR related papers published each year in ever-increasing manner. Here, we will briefly introduce CRISPR/Cas9 system and discuss the variants of the CRISPR system. Also, their applications to crop improvement will be dealt with mainly ornamental crops among horticultural crops other than Arabidopsis as a model plant. Finally, some issues on the barriers restraining the use of CRISPR system on floricultural crops, the prospect of CRISPR system as a DNA-free genome editing tool with efficient facilitators and finally, the future perspectives on the CRISPR system will be described.

As livestock farms grow in size, the number of breeding individuals increases, making it difficult to manage livestock. Livestock farms require an integrated management system such as a monitoring system, an access control system, and an abnormal behavior detection system to manage livestock houses. In this paper, a smart korean cattle livestock management system using IoT and AI technology was proposed for livestock management in livestock farms. The smart korean cattle farm management system consists of a monitoring and control system, a vehicle access management system, and an abnormal cattle behavior detection system. It is expected that this will help manage large-scale livestock houses, and additional research is needed to improve the performance of abnormal behavior detection in the future.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine how an Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) simulation application via smartphone effects nurses' ACLS knowledge and learning satisfaction. Methods: The participants were selected from nurses in medical Intensive Care Unit (ICU), surgical ICU and emergency room. The experimental group consists of fifty nurses who were self-learned with ACLS simulation application via smartphone and the control group of seventy-one nurses who used traditional learning materials. Outcome variables included nurses' knowledge and learning satisfaction which were collected before and after the intervention. Results: The scores of ACLS knowledge were higher in the control group compared to the experimental group (p=.001) while learning satisfaction showed no statistical difference (p=.444). In learning satisfaction, the experimental group showed higher interest than the control group (p=.019) while the control group rated higher on the item, 'the contents of education was reliable' (p=.007). Conclusion: ACLS knowledge score was graded higher in control group that used traditional learning method than the experimental group that used the smartphone application. This study showed that training with the new material significantly increased nurses' interest in ACLS education. Hence, more applications for smartphones should be developed to provide self-learning environment for nurses and improve care quality.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop and evaluate an oral care protocol for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. Methods: The participants in this study were cancer patients in Severance hospital in Seoul. A total of 31 patients were assigned to the experimental group, and 29 patients to the control group. Data were collected from August 1 to October 5, 2010. The protocol included definition and symptom of oral mucositis, self-check method of oral status, prophylactic method of oral mucositis (oral care, eating habits, and gargling) and management of oral mucositis. Oral Assessment Guide (OAG) was used as the measurement tool of oral mucositis in this study, Oral Care Performance Scale was used as the measurement tool of oral care performance status. Data were analyzed with a $x^2-test$ and t-test, and repeated measures ANOVA, using SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. Results: Patients in the experimental group receiving the oral care protocol had a significant difference (t=-2.938, p=.005) in the oral care performance compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference (F=1.255, p=.274) in the oral mucositis status between two groups. Conclusion: This study showed that the oral care protocol could improve oral care performance status for the patients under chemotherapy.

In this paper, we study the fishery detection system for protection of an aquamlture farm. The FDS(fishery detection system) will be recognize a robbing vessel with real time and variance the position of aquaculture farm. We try to develop the F-AIS(Fishery Automatic Identification System) which am be detect approaching object to aquaculture farm and distinguish our fishing boot from thief vessel. The F-AIS with low price and wideband responsibility am be adopt to the FDS, i. e. the identification for a small-sized fishing boots.

It is needed to use the gait training system for the rehabilitation of the disabled and old people. In this study, a gait training system of turn roller type is proposed for the purpose of helping the rehabilitation. A driving mechanism with the turn roller is designed by using the RecurDyn which is the dynamic analysis program. RecurDyn is used to analyze the dynamic behavior of the gait training system. The static load analysis is carried out to investigate the safety of this system. From the operating test of this system, it is noted that the driving error is little and the load capacity is 130 kgf.

The integrated navigation system(INS) for fishing boat which organized the marine radar, global positioning system(GPS) compass, automatic identification system(AIS), echo sounder, GPS and electronic nautical chart(ENC) was manufactured to reduce the marine accidents of fishing boats occurred frequently at coastal and offshore. The application possibility of INS for fishing boat was examined for basic experiments in the sea. Integration display of various information, such as other vessel's behavior, depth, own vessel's position etc. was done to help the operate user who understood the circumstance around own boat. Therefore, the system will be utilized as a useful equipment for safety voyage and fishing work on the fishing ground.

This paper describes a study of conventional electrical rig and simulated application of Flywheel Energy Storage system on the power system of the offshore plants with dynamic positioning system with the following aims: improve fuel consumption on engines, prevent blackout and mitigate voltage sags due to pulsed load and fault. Fuel consumption has been analyzed for the generators of the typical drilling rigs compared with the power plant with Flywheel Storage Unit which has an important aid in avoiding power interruption during DP (Dynamic Positioning) operation. The FES (Fly wheel Energy storage System) releases energy very quickly and efficiently to ensure continuity of the power supply to essential consumers such as auxiliary machinery and thrusters upon main power failure. It will run until the standby diesel generator can start and supply the electric power to the facilities to keep the vessel in correct position under DP operation. The proposed backup method to utilize the quick and large energy storage Flywheel system can be optimized in any power system design on offshore plant.
