Message from UKC2008 Chairs Dear KSEA Members, Speakers, and Colleagues: We are proud to publish the 3 rd Preliminary Program with the detailed time schedule three months ahead of the UKC2008 (conference). This year more than 670 abstracts were submitted and approximately 600 out of them have been accepted. This year’s number of abstracts submitted and accepted is a record high in the history of US-Korea Conferences (UKC). In addition, about 50 more presentations are to be included at the Young Generation and Professional Forum at UKC2008. Many distinguished speakers are invited to give speeches at the Conference. They include two Nobel Laureates (Prof. Clive Granger of UCSD and Dr. Roger Guillemin of SALK), a Turing Award recipient (Frances Allen of IBM), a Fields Medal recipient (Prof. Efim Isaakovich Zelmanov), two Chancellors of University of California (Prof. Marye Anne Fox and Prof. Sung-Mo Kang), two Presidents of Universities in Korea (Prof. Nam Pyo Suh and Prof. Sunngi Baik), and other numerous speakers whose research accomplishments are known to be one of the top in their field. We hope to achieve the following objectives through the Conference: (1) Provide a platform for leading researchers from the US and Korea to exchange their research findings and state-of-theart trends in science and technology; (2) Promote networking among participants to facilitate scientific collaboration between the two countries; (3) Provide young scientists and engineers with an opportunity to explore their career development as future leaders in their field; and (4) Contribute in making a better world through the development of science and technology. We invite you to register online for the Conference to meet your colleagues and friends, and to visit the beautiful city of San Diego. We are confident that the Conference will be a valuable experience for all the participants on both professional and personal level. I would like to ask for your continued support and cooperation in the preparation of the Conference. I look forward to seeing you in August. Best Regards, Kang-Wook Lee, Ph.D. UKC2008 Chair and KSEA President-elect IBM T.J.

Message from the Minister of Education, Science and Technology, Republic of Korea I would like to offer my congratulations to the Korean and American science communities on the US-Korea Conference on Science, Technology and Entrepreneurship (UKC) 2008. Since its inception in 1971, the Korean-American Scientists and Engineers Association (KSEA) has fostered cooperation between the United States and Korea through a variety of activities such as up-to-date information exchange of science and technology and its current trend and exchange programs for scientists and researchers. In particular, it gives me further pleasure that UKC, organized by KSEA on an annual basis since 1994, is being recognized as a truly international conference encompassing the two countries. UKC has made remarkable contributions to promoting cooperation between our two countries by providing opportunities for scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, and other leaders from both countries to exchange their scientific achievements, establish professional networks, and provide practical policy ideas on improvement of R&D system in Korea. Throughout the human history, science and technology has not only led economic development but also provided the solutions to the issues of global concern including climate changes, food, energy and so forth. In addition, rationality and creativity that science and technology promotes in our society have been the source of both competitiveness and dignity of a nation. It is under such a conviction that the new Korean government created the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MEST) by combining the two former ministries, the Ministry of Education & Human Resources Development and the Ministry of Science & Technology. With a mission to develop Korea into an advanced society based on science and technology, MEST will utilize all the available means to promote creative talents and strengthen R&D capabilities. Especially, MEST plans to expand international networks in science and technology through policies of encouraging international joint research projects and attracting prominent research centers and distinguished scholars abroad to Korea. At this moment international cooperation in science and technology become even more important for our future growth. I attach special significance to UKC 2008 as I have high expectation that UKC serves as a catalyst for bringing the cooperation between Korea and US in science and technology to a higher level. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to President Kang-Wook Lee of KSEA, President Ki-Jun Lee of the Korean Federation of Science and Technology Societies (KOFST), and their members and staff including the Korea-US Science Cooperation Center (KUSCO) for their time and efforts for the organization of this conference. Finally, I hope that UKC 2008 will be more successful than ever and bring out the best results for all participants.
