Abstract: A display device includes a plurality of pixel electrodes on a substrate, light-emitting elements on the plurality of pixel electrodes and extending in a thickness direction of the substrate and connecting electrodes between the plurality of pixel electrodes and the light-emitting elements, wherein a width of the connecting electrodes is greater than a width of the light-emitting elements, and upper corners of each of the light-emitting elements and upper corners of each of the connecting electrodes are rounded.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a video decoding method and apparatus and a video encoding method and apparatus. In video encoding and decoding, multiple partition blocks are generated by splitting a target block. A prediction mode is derived for at least a part of the multiple partition blocks, among the multiple partition blocks, and prediction is performed on the multiple partition blocks based on the derived prediction mode. When prediction is performed on the partition blocks, information related to the target block may be used, and information related to an additional partition block, which is predicted prior to the partition block, may be used.

Abstract: Provided is a method of manufacturing a zinc-plated steel sheet. The method includes: coating a metal on the steel sheet on a steel sheet; annealing the metal coated steel sheet; and zinc plating the annealed steel sheet by dipping in a molten zinc plating bath. Further provided is a method of manufacturing a hot-press part including: coating a metal on the steel sheet on a steel sheet; annealing the metal coated steel sheet; zinc plating the annealed steel sheet by dipping in a molten zinc plating bath; heating the zinc-plated steel sheet; and press forming the heated steel sheet.

Abstract: A refrigerator capable of transmitting and receiving information over a network and having an automatic food ordering function and a method for operating the same, wherein the residual amounts of food articles stored in containers of the refrigerator are measured through sensors installed in the containers and then displayed on a screen of a display unit, thereby enabling a user to easily recognize the residual amounts of the food articles stored in the refrigerator without opening the door of the refrigerator. The measured residual amounts of the food articles are compared with minimum proper amounts of the food articles preset by the user, respectively. In the case where the measured residual amount of a specific one of the food articles is smaller than the minimum proper amount of the specific food article, the specific food article is automatically ordered and delivered.

Abstract: A refrigerator which is capable of being connected to the Internet and performing a variety of multimedia functions, and a method for controlling the same. A multimedia controller which controls the multimedia functions of the refrigerator is driven under the control of a refrigerator controller which controls refrigerating and freezing environments of the refrigerator. Even when an accident, such as a power failure or etc., occurs, the multimedia controller is given time in which it can be normally or closed down or ended. Therefore, a warning window is not displayed on a display unit of the refrigerator upon the driving of the multimedia controller, thus reassuring a user that the refrigerator has not failed.

Abstract: A refrigerator and a method for operating the same. The refrigerator comprises a single media controller installed on a single board together with a refrigerator microcomputer, which controls the entire operation of the refrigerator, for not only displaying information regarding internal environments of the refrigerator on a display unit installed on the outer surface of the refrigerator, but also connecting the refrigerator to an external network, such as the Internet, to enable a user to access the Internet through the refrigerator. Therefore, the refrigerator can be reduced in its assembling time and manufacturing cost and be increased in its assembling efficiency.

Abstract: A setup system and method for a refrigerator having a plurality of compartments respectively adapted to perform independent refrigerating and freezing functions. The setup system and method provides an application program adapted to control refrigerating and freezing environments for the refrigerator and initialized during the manufacturing process of the refrigerator by the manufacturer. In accordance with the refrigerator setup system and method, the user is allowed to install, directly or via program providing means connected to a network, the application program to establish respective refrigerating or freezing environments desired for the compartments. Thus, it is possible to provide effects of establishing refrigerating and freezing environments for respective compartments meeting the local characteristics of the area where the refrigerator is used.
