Continuum observation of galaxies in millimeter-wave gives informations on dust emission from molecular clouds, free-free emission from HII region and synchrotron emission from SNR and diffuse component. The free-free emission can be observed only at millimeter-wave frequencies and their emission is optically thin, it can be a good indicator of their star-formation activities.
