The Giant Magellan Telescope Organization (GMTO) is developing the GMT Software Development Kit (SDK) for the Observatory Control System (OCS). The SDK models a subsystem of the GMT using a Domain Specific Language (DSL) which can generate a skeleton code and validates the availability of the model automatically. The OCS includes a Device Control System (DCS) and all the devices are connected with the DCS via EtherCAT. The DCS has a component (Hardware Adapter) to communicate with EtherCAT slaves. In this presentation, we demonstrate the modeling process and describe the importance and usage plan of the SDK.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to analyze the small animal patients treated by Oriental medicine and develop the treatment strategies for small animal patients. Methods : 58 cases of small animal patients treated in the department of integrated medicine, Veterinary Medical Center, University of Minnesota, USA, from Jan 1 2003 to Aug 30 2003 were surveyed. Results : 1. The number of dog patients was more than that of cat patients and the female patients were more than the male patients. 2. The highest incidence was shown in the age of 6 to 15 on dogs and 11 to 15 on cats, respectively. 3. The number of patients via other hospital was as much as that of the first visitor to this department. 4. The most frequent disease was the musculoskeletal problems in dog patients and the internal medicine problems in cats patients. 5. The improvement rate was 85% in dogs and 86% in cats, respectively. Conclusions: Oriental medicine is supposed to be effective on relieving the symptoms and signs in small animal patients.

A gene can be selectively overexpressed in E. coli by utilizing the phage T7 RNA polymerase's stringent recognition and active transcription of the T7 promoter. The T7 expression system was constructed such that the T7 RNA polymerase gene is under the control of lacUV5 promoter in one plasmid, and that the target gene, the promoterless chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene with E. coli ribosome binding site is under the control of T7 promoter in the other plasmid. Only the E. coli cells containing both plasmids show high resistance to chloramphenicol. When the copy number of the runaway plasmid containing the polymerase gene was varied by a temperature shift, amounts of the CAT protein synthesized upon induction was correspondingly changed as shown in SDS gel electrophoresis.

Infrared (IR) seeker identifies the location of a target by detecting the infrared energy radiated from the target, and enables the missile to track the target. To improve the tracking performance, a counter- countermeasure (CCM) is essential to minimize the effect of the countermeasure (CM), which is operated by a target to protect itself. In this paper, we propose a crossed array tracker (CAT) using two-color CCM algorithm. The CAT using the proposed algorithm shows better tracking performance by minimizing the effect of CM.

We proceed to develop the control software of GMACS, which is a wide-field, multi-object, moderate-resolution optical spectrograph for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). Flexure Compensation System (FCS) prototype is one of the electronics and mechanical prototypes for GMACS. In this poster, we present the software design for the FCS prototype by using the software system modeling language, SysML. We also show two development tools to control the prototype that communicates via EtherCAT: using TwinCAT and Visual C++ on Windows 10, and GMT Software Development Kit (SDK) and C++ on Linux. We discuss the way to design the GMACS control software, which would not depend on the development tools.

The process of deep learning usually needs to deal with massive data which has greatly limited the development of deep learning technologies today. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) structure is often used to solve image classification problems. However, a large number of images may be required in order to train an image in CNN, which is a heavy burden for existing computer systems to handle. If the image data can be compressed under the premise that the computer hardware system remains unchanged, it is possible to train more datasets in deep learning. However, image compression usually adopts the form of lossy compression, which will lose part of the image information. If the lost information is key information, it may affect learning performance. In this paper, we will analyze the effect of image compression on deep learning performance on CNN-based cat and dog classification. Through the experiment results, we conclude that the compression of images does not have a significant impact on the accuracy of deep learning.

Esterification reaction between succinic acid[SA] and 1,4-butanediol [BD} was kinetically investigated in the presence of organic metal catalysts (alkyl-silver oxide(ASO),CAT 100E) at $150{\sim}190^{\circ}C$. The reaction rates measured by the amount of distilled water from the reaction vessel. The esterification reaction was carried out under the first order kinetics with respect to the concentration of reactants and catalyst, respectively. The overall reaction order was 2nd. From the examination of relationship between apparent reaction rate constants and reciprocal absolute temperature, the activation energy has been calculate as 146.70 kJ/mol with ASO catalyst and 43.04 kJ/mol with CAT 100E catalyst.

A 4-year-old female Munchkin cat presented with a 2-day history of a large mass in the left eye. On the first presentation, slit lamp biomicroscopy revealed a large corneal bulla occupying around 40% of the corneal surface along the visual axis. Based on the results, a diagnosis of feline acute bullous keratopathy was made. Due to the location of the extensive corneal bulla, autologous lamellar keratoplasty was performed based on prior studies, to both minimize postoperative complications that may affect axial vision and address any cosmetic concerns the owner had. The autologous lamellar keratoplasty successfully resolved the corneal bulla with no signs of corneal opacities postoperatively. Therefore, autologous lamellar keratoplasty may be a useful surgical treatment for feline acute bullous keratopathy from both the tectonic and optical points of view.

The UTP cable has been widely used, recently it is being developed for use in the UHF frequency band. One important characteristic of the UTP cable is NEXT. This research is to develop a pitch selection technique for an UTP cable which leads to a satisfactory NEXT. The transmission line model involving mutual inductances and capacitances between line pairs is used, and the simulation was carried out for frequencies from 1 MHz to 600 MHz. With respect to the worst margin of the NEXT for a Cat. 6 cable the simulation and measurement results show a good agreement.

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC, EC 4.1.1.17) is the first and key enzyme in eukaryotic polyamine biosynthesis. The cDNA encoding ornithine decarboxylase from Nicotiana glutinosa was cloned ($GeBank^{TM}$ AF 323910) and expressed in E. coli. Site directed mutagenesis were performed on several highly conserved cysteine residues. Among the mutants, C115A showed significant changes in the kinetic properties. The $K_m$ value of the C115A mutant was $1790\;{\mu}M$, which was 3-fold higher than that of the wild-type ODC. There was a dramatic decrease in the $k_{cat}$, values of the C115A mutant, compared to that of the wild-type ODC, which had a $k_{cat}$ value of $77.75\;s^{-1}$. C115A caused a shift in the optimal pH from 8.0 to 8.4. Considering these results, we suggest that cys-115 is involved in the catalytic activity of N. glutinosa ODC.
