Abstract: A mobile communication terminal is provided including an audio processing unit, a speaker, a connecting unit that connects to an external audio output device and indicates whether the external audio output device is connected, and a control unit configured to, while in a silent mode, control the audio processing unit to reproduce a music file and to output audio signals, corresponding to the reproduced music file, through the speaker, the silent mode being a mode wherein a vibration signal is generated upon receiving an incoming call, if the external audio output device is connected to the connecting unit, output the audio signals to the external audio output device, and if the external audio output device is disconnected from the connecting unit while the audio signals are being output to the external audio output device, control the display unit to display a user interface for continuing reproduction of the music file.

Abstract: A method of forming a conductive polymer deposit on a substrate is disclosed. The method may include the steps of preparing a composition comprising monomers of the conductive polymer and a nitrosyl precursor, contacting the substrate with the composition so as to allow formation of nitrosyl ion on the exterior surface of the substrate, and allowing the monomer to polymerize into the conductive polymer, wherein the polymerization is initiated by the nitrosyl ion and the conductive polymer is deposited on the exterior surface of the substrate. The conductive polymer may be polypyrrole.

Abstract: A method for reproducing a music file of a mobile communication terminal includes outputting a confirmation message for determining whether a music file is to be reproduced if reproduction of the music file is requested during the manner mode of the mobile communication terminal, and reproducing the music file if an external output device is connected to the mobile communication terminal. Since a user can reproduce music files without any complex key manipulation, even during the manner mode of the mobile communication terminal, the user can listen to desired music easily, thereby improving the convenience of the mobile communication terminal.

Abstract: A digital photographing apparatus and a method of operating an image pickup device reduce generation of smear. The image pickup device includes a matrix of photoelectric converters which generate charges from incident light, vertical transfer paths for reading charges generated in the photoelectric converters and for transferring the read charges in a vertical direction, and a horizontal transfer path for transferring the charges on the vertical transfer paths in a horizontal direction. The method includes: applying vertical and horizontal transfer signals for causing the charges generated in photoelectric converters defining a subset of rows of the photoelectric converters to be read by the vertical transfer paths and to be transferred in the horizontal direction along the horizontal transfer path; and providing a predetermined period of time in which the horizontal transfer signals are not applied to the horizontal transfer path while charges are being transferred to the horizontal transfer path.

Abstract: A system for identifying an originator based on an image and a method thereof are disclosed. The method includes: transmitting a session initiate protocol INVITE message by inserting predetermined image information in the session initiate protocol INVITE message at a transmitting terminal; and displaying an image by analyzing image information included in a received session initiate protocol INVITE message transmitted from the transmitting terminal at a receiving terminal.

Abstract: A method of controlling a digital photographing apparatus to display an image is provided. The method includes obtaining an input image from an image input unit, and displaying, on a display unit, each of a plurality of display regions of the input image to be enlarged as an enlarged image.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an Arabidopsis gene (AtLEJ1), acting as an inhibitor of the biosynthesis of the phytohormones jasmonic acid and ethylene, and a method for producing a male sterile transgenic plant using the same. The gene guarantees stable male sterile strains which need no maintainers for the maintenance thereof. Also, the transgenic plants comprising the gene can be readily restored to a fertile phenotype merely through hormonal treatment. Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.

Abstract: A signal receiving apparatus, a broadcast receiving apparatus and a signal processing method using the same are provided. An amplifying unit amplifies a received signal. A digital demodulating unit demodulates a signal amplified and output from the amplifying unit and extracts a transfer stream of the demodulated signal. A control unit controls on and off states of the amplifying unit. Accordingly, even a signal of high level of magnitude can be amplified if the signal has degrading quality.

Abstract: A method for removing defects due to edge chips of a semiconductor wafer is disclosed. This method includes forming a molding layer over a semiconductor wafer. The molding layer is patterned to form a plurality of storage node holes, where the plurality of storage node holes include at least one first storage node hole formed on an effective chip area and at least one second storage node hole formed on an edge chip area. First storage nodes and second storage nodes are formed in the first and second storage node holes, respectively. A photoresist pattern is formed on the wafer having the storage nodes. The photoresist pattern is preferably formed to expose the effective chip areas and to cover the edge chip areas. The molding layer is etched, using the photoresist pattern as an etching mask, to expose portions of the first storage nodes.

Abstract: A tilting device is disclosed. The tilting device may include: a base; a guide, of which one side is hinge-coupled to the base; a jointed link, in which a joint is formed, and of which either end is hinge-coupled respectively to the base and to the other side of the guide, to thereby allow the guide to tilt; a leadscrew engaging the joint; and a driving unit configured to drive the leadscrew. With this configuration, the tilting device may be implemented in a compact structure using a smaller driving unit.
