In order to verify the occurrence of an estrogenic compound in natural products, the estrogenic activity was measured using an in vitro detection system. For this system, human breast cancer cell line MCF7 was transfected using an estrogen responsive CAT reporter plasmid. Estrogenic activities of photosynthetic algae spirulina and sea lettuce were evaluated using this system. Estrogenic activities of a $500\mug/ml\; and\; 50 \mug/ml$ ethanol extracts of spirulina were as much as that of $10^{-8}$M standard solution (17$\beta$-estradiol) and activity of $5\mug/ml$ ethanol extract of spirulina was as much as that of $10^{-10}$ M standard solution. However, no significant estrogenic activity was observed using sea lettuce extract. Estrogenic activities of marine animals, such as star fish and shrimp, were also evaluated using this system, however, no significant estrogenic activity was observed in these extracts. In this result, it is confirmed that spirulina extract possesses estrogenic compound.

In the paper, we designed a context aware task-role based access control system(CAT-RACS) which can control access and prevent illegal access efficiently for various information systems in ubiquitous computing environment. CAT-RACS applied CA-TRBAC, which adds context-role concept for achieve policy composition by context information and security level attribute to be kept confidentiality of information. CA-TRBAC doesn't permit access when context isn't coincident with access control conditions, or role and task's security level aren't accord with object's security level or their level is a lower level, even if user's role and task are coincident with access control conditions. It provides security services of user authentication and access control, etc. by a context-aware security manager, and provides context-aware security services and manages context information needed in security policy configuration by a context information fusion manager. Also, it manages CA-TRBAC policy, user authentication policy, and security domain management policy by a security policy manager.

Esophageal obstruction as a result of persistence of the right aortic arch was diagnosed in a 3-month-old male Persian cat. Regurgitation right after weaning and retardation were noted in this cat. Survey radiographic signs on the lateral view include ventral deviation of the thoracic trachea caused by draping of the dilated esophagus over the dorsum of the trachea and a distinct interface of the dorsal wall of the esophagus silhouetting with the cranial thoracic hypaxial muscles. On the ventrodorsal view, the cranial mediastinum was widened with soft tissue density. The trachea was deviated to the right. In an esophagram, the segmental dilation of the esophagus with constriction of the lumen just cranial to the heart base was apparent. Thoracotomy was performed and corrective surgery was carried out. At surgery, it was confirmed that the esophagus was constricted at the cranial to the base of the heart.

물순환계를 종합적으로 관리하기 위해서는 물순환계의 모니터링과 해석모형의 구축이 필요하다. 실측자료만으로는 복잡 다양한 물순환계 구조 및 인과관계를 규명할 수 없기 때문에 시간적 공간적으로 변화하는 다양한 수문현상을 일관된 하나의 시스템으로 이해하기 위해 물순환 해석모델을 구축하여 검토할 필요가 있다. CAT(Catchment hydrologic cycle Analysis Tool)은 수문학적으로 균일하게 판단되는 범위를 소유역으로 분할하여 지형학적 요인에 의한 유출 특성을 객관적으로 반영할 수 있게 하며, 토양층에 따라 침투, 증발, 지하수 흐름 등의 모의가 가능하도록 하는 Link-Node 모형으로, 증발산은 기준 증발산을 외부에서 직접 입력하거나, Penman-Monteith 방법을 선택할 수 있으며, 침투는 토양의 수리전도도에 따른 연직방향 침투 및 사면방향 복귀류를 고려할 수 있다. 노드의 지하수 유거를 고려하여 기존 노드-링크 방식 모형의 장기 유출 해석시 제한점을 보완하였으며, Muskingum, Muskingum-Cunge, Kinematic wave 방법을 이용하여 하도추적을 모의할 수 있다. 또한 GUI를 통해 사용자가 손쉽게 모형을 적용하고 관리 할 수 있도록 하고, 여러 시나리오를 적용함에 있어서 편리하도록 개발 중인 모형이다. 본 연구에서는 개발중인 CAT 모형을 평가 하기위해 시험 유역으로 운영 중인 설마천 유역에 적용하여 소유역 분할(노드수), 계산 시간 간격(일/시단위) 등에 따른 적용성을 평가하였다. 관측 자료를 통해 구축 가능한 물리적 매개변수를 통해 해당 유역을 단일 노드 및 다중 노드로 간단히 모형화할 수 있었으며, 모의 결과, 관측 유량과 적절히 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 1시간 단위에 대한 모의에서도 유출을 적절히 모의할 수 있었으며, 소규모 유역에 대한 정밀한 물순환 해석이 가능할 것으로 평가되었다.

도시화는 수문학적으로 산림이나 농경지와 같은 투수지역을 건물, 도로 등의 불투수 지역으로 변화시키는 것이며, 이로 인하여 홍수파의 도달시간이 줄어들고 첨두유량이 증가하는 등의 수문변화를 수반하게 된다. 도로나 건물 등이 대부분을 차지하고 있는 도시지역에서는 지표면이나 식생으로부터 대기 중으로 방출되는 증발산량이 농촌이나 산림지역보다 상대적으로 적으며, 강우시 토양중의 침투량과 지표면의 저류량도 도시지역에서는 매우 적게 나타난다. 도시화 전 후의 물순환특성을 평가하기 위해서는 도시 개발 전 후의 장단기 수문 관측 결과를 기초로 물순환계를 구성하는 인자간의 관계를 정량적으로 분석하고 물순환계 구성요소의 일부 변화가 다른 부분에 미치는 영향을 평가할 필요가 있다. 즉, 도시화가 물순환 구조 변동에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가함으로써 유역 전체의 건전한 물순환 체계를 유지할 수 있는 대책 수립이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 판교신도시 개발에 따른 유역에서의 홍수 및 유출특성 변화의 정량적 규명을 목적으로 두고 집중형 모형인 HEC-HMS모형과 물리적 기반의 준분포형 모형인 CAT을 이용하여 판교신도시 개발전의 정량적 물순환 특성을 평가하였다. 대상유역은 지방 2급 하천 탄천의 지류인 운중천, 금토천이 포함된 판교유역이며, 유역면적은 약 $25km^2$이다. 이 중 유역면적의 38 %에 해당하는 지역이 개발되었으며 개발된 지역은 하류부근에 위치한다. 강우자료는 지상 강우관측소인 수원 관측소의 지점강우 자료를 이용하였다. 도시 개발 전 단계에 해당하는 2006년, 2007년 호우사상 중 누적강우량 50 mm 이상인 호우사상을 추출하여 모의를 수행하였다. 유출 특성 분석을 위해 12개의 소유역과 5개의 하도로 구성하였으며 HEC-HMS의 손실량 산정방법으로는 SCS Curve Number법을 사용하였고, 단위도는 Clark 단위 도법을 적용하였다. CAT모형에서 침투는 Rainfall Excess방법, 하도추적은 Muskingum 방법을 적용하였다. 관측치와 모의치의 적합도 검증을 위해 RMSE (Root Mean Square Error), NSE (Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency), $R^2$값을 산정하여 비교 분석하였다.

The Industrial Ethernet technology enables advanced control architectures and offers several advantages for high precision multiple motors actuation. This paper presents the implementation and analysis of a motor drive with EtherCAT, an industrial standard for real time Ethernet. Considering the characteristics of the implemented software and the network interface, the motion and time-response of motor actuation for the networked Mobile Inverted Pendulum have been analyzed. Using the analysis with the task execution times measured from the developed drive, the performance characteristics of the drive in respect of the maximum achievable throughput have been verified by comparing to the conventional RS232.

A 4-year-old cat was referred for a suspected pulmonary mass. True diaphragmatic hernia presence was diagnosed via computed tomography (CT). There was a thin membrane covering the diaphragmatic defect. The membrane was thinner than the diaphragm. After contrast injection, the membrane was less enhanced than that of the normal diaphragm. The membrane was identified as a remnant of the parietal pleura. In addition, contrast-enhanced CT images provided clarity in viewing the herniated liver and falciform fat. A thinner membrane, covering the diaphragmatic defect, and attached to the thicker normal diaphragm, is considered a unique CT feature of true diaphragmatic hernia.

The worldwide spread of the Internet and the digital information revolution have resulted in a rapid increase in the use and transmission of multimedia information due to the rapid development of communication technologies. It is important to protect images in order to prevent problems such as piracy and illegal distribution. To solve this problem, I propose a new digital color image encryption algorithm in this paper. I design a new pseudo-random number generator based on 1D five-neighborhood maximum length cellular automata (FN-MLCA) to change the pixel values of the plain image into unpredictable values. And then I use a 3D chaotic cat map to effectively shuffle the positions of the image pixel. In this paper, I propose a method to construct a new MLCA by modeling 1D FN-MLCA. This result is an extension of 1D 3-neighborhood CA and shows that more 1D MLCAs can be synthesized. The safety of the proposed algorithm is verified through various statistical analyses.

The current study describes a case of endometrial polyps accompanied by an open-cervix pyometra in a 15-year-old female Chinchilla Persian cat. The cat was presented with a history of a large mass in the endometrium and purulent discharge from the vulva. Ovariohysterectomy was performed and pedunculated polypoid mass on the endometrium was seen protruded into the uterine cavity. Histologically, the mass was composed of multiple cystically dilated glands surrounded by fibrous stroma. Based on gross and histologic findings, the diagnosis for this case was concluded.

This report presents a rare case of feline exocrine pancreatic ductal carcinoma including treatment and prognosis. A 4.6-year-old castrated male American Shorthair cat, weighing 5 kg was presented with intermittent vomiting, diarrhea and loss of appetite. Through physical examination and radiography, a cranial abdominal mass was identified. Exploratory laparotomy was carried out. The largest mass was connected to the left lobe of the pancreas, and there were several small, nodular masses scattered along the abdominal lining. The pancreatic mass was removed using an ultrasonic scalpel, and the patient recovered favorably. Histopathologically, the resected lesion was diagnosed as an exocrine pancreatic ductal papillary carcinoma. The patient was maintained with conservative therapy and euthanized on post-operative day 262. Partial pancreatectomy using an ultrasonic scalpel was accomplished safely without evidence of pancreatic leakage.
