The demand for large-scale storage systems has continued to grow due to the emergence of multimedia, social-network, and big-data services. In order to improve the response time and reduce the load of such large-scale storage systems, DRAM-based in-memory cache systems are becoming popular. However, the high cost of DRAM severely restricts their capacity. While the method of compressing cache entries has been proposed to deal with the capacity limitation issue, compression and decompression, which are technically difficult to parallelize, induce significant processing overhead and in turn retard the response time. A selective compression scheme is proposed in this paper for in-memory file system caches that rapidly estimates the compression ratio of incoming cache entries with their Shannon entropies and compresses cache entries with low compression ratio. In addition, a description is provided of the design and implementation of an in-kernel in-memory file system cache with the proposed selective compression scheme. The evaluation showed that the proposed scheme reduced the execution time of benchmarks by approximately 18% in comparison to the conventional non-compressing in-memory cache scheme. It also provided a cache hit ratio similar to the all-compressing counterpart and reduced 7.5% of the execution time by reducing the compression overhead. In addition, it was shown that the selective compression scheme can reduce the CPU time used for compression by 28% compared to the case of the all-compressing scheme.

A frequency of earthquake occurrence in the Republic of Korea is increasing over the past few decades. In this situation, an importance of earthquake prevention comes to the fore because the earthquake does damage to structures and causes severe damage of human life. For the earthquake prevention, a real-time vibration measurement for structures is important. As an example, the United States of America and Japan have already been monitoring real-time earthquake acceleration for the important structures and the measured acceleration data has been managed by forming database. This database could be used for revising the seismic design specifications or predicting the damage caused by earthquake. In Korea, Earthquake Recovery Plans Act and Enforcement Regulations are revised and declared lately. Ministry of Public Safety and Security is constructing a integrated management system for the measured earthquake acceleration data. The purpose of this research is to develop a real-time vibration monitoring and analysis system for structures which links to the integrated management system. The developed system contains not only a monitoring function to show real-time acceleration data but also an analysis system to perform fast fourier transform, to obtain natural frequency and earthquake magnitude, to show response spectrum and power spectrum, and to evaluate structural health. Additionally, this system is designed to be able to link to the integrated management system of Ministry of Public Safety and Security. It is concluded that the developed system can be useful to build a safety management network, minimize maintenance cost of structures, and prevention of the structural damage due to earthquake.

In this study, we mainly focused on the PM (Particulate Matter) emission characteristics of a diesel engine. To analyze particle behavior in the tail-pipe, particle emission was measured on the engine-out (downstream of turbocharger), each upstream and downstream both of DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst) and DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter). Moreover, particle emission contours on each sampling point were constructed. The reduction efficiency of particle number concentration and mass through the DOC and DPF was studied. Parameters such as EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) and the main injection timing were varied in part load conditions and evaluated using the engine-out emissions. The DMS500 (Differential Mobility Spectrometer) was used as a particle measurement instrument that can measure particle concentrations from 5 nm to 1000 nm. Nano-particles of sizes less than 30 nm were reduced by oxidation or coagulated with solid particles in the tail-pipe and DOC. The DPF has a very high filtration efficiency over all operating conditions except during natural regeneration of DPF.

Recently medical and entertainment applications using conducting textile are suggested, but the data of conducting threads are not characterized, classified and verified. Only the data sheet published by manufacturing companies is available. Thus we need to verify the performances of the threading threads in communication. And we need a guideline if the existing communication protocols can be used for the conducting threads communication or the new specific communication protocols have to be developed for the communication. This paper classifies the characteristics of conducting threads made by domestic and overseas companies. Based on the criteria we classified conducting threads into three classes: class A, class B and class C. Further we carried out experiments to verify the adaptability of existing simple serial communication protocols such as RS232. Six different conducting threads are used in experiments and the length of each thread was 0.5m, 1m, 2m and 3m. The data transmission rate and error rate are collected and analyzed. RS485 is very prone to error due to static electricity from human and environment. So it may not be appropriate as long-distance communication protocol up to 12km which is possible in theory. RS232 shows stable and error-less data transmission ability even though every conducting thread didn’t show transmission capability over RS232. USB protocol shows high data rate transmission but the distance cannot be exceeded over 2m. Additionally, USB requires stable power supply. But if the power is supplied through conducting thread, its function is not.

An effective method for isolation of the major components of ginseng saponin such as $ginsenoside-Rb_{1},\;-Rb_2,$ -Rc, -Rd, -Re and $-Rg_1$, and the minor components such as ginsenoside-Rf, $-Rg_2,\;and-Rh_1$, was developed and reported in previous papers (J. Korean Agr. Chem. Soc., 23(4), 199 and 206(1980) The conditions and procedures used for isolation and identification for ginsenosides described in the previous papers were not sufficient enough for clean separation of minor components, $ginsenoside-Rh_1,\;and-Rh_2$. In this work, modifications in extraction method and in mobile phase for HPLC were attempted. It was found that application of ethyl acetate extraction at $60^{\circ}C$ for 3 hr on crude saponin resulted in a removal of diol group saponin from crude saponin which made it possible for using higher portion of acetonitrile in mobile phase. The mixed solvents of acetonitrile : water (92 : 8 and 94 : 6) gave excellent resolution of $ginsenoside-Rh_1\;and\;-Rh_2$.

사회전반에 걸친 물류단지의 필요성에 대한 인식은 날로 높아지고 있으나, 물류단지의 입지를 정작 어느 곳으로 할 것인가에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 물류단지의 입지를 결정하는 여러 요인들 중 일반적으로 계량화 작업이 많이 이루어진 수송비와 ,대규모 개발 사업시 가장 먼저 고려해야 하는 토지보상비를 결정하는 지가를 물류단지의 입지를 결정하는 입지비용이라 가정하고, 현재 화물수송이 가장 많이 이루어지고 있는 경부고속도로축을 중심으로 입지비용을 결정하는 지가와 소송비의 산출을 위한 근거를 제시하며, 이를 설명할 수 있는 지가와 수송비의 모형을 지가와 수송비의 산출을 위한 근거를 제시하며, 이를 설명할 수 있는 지가와 수송비의 모형을 개발하여, 이 모형을 토대로 물류단지의 규모와 서울도심에서의 거리의 변화에 따라 물류단지의 입지가 어떻게 변화하는 가를 밝혀, 물류단지의 최적입지를 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 논문의 결론을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 물동량의 증가에 따라 수송비가 증가하고, 물동량을 처리하기 위한 소요부지면적이 증가하면, 지가와 수송비의 교차구간은 도심에서약 15~20km 떨어진 구간에서 형성되고, 이 때의 최적입지는 물동량과 소요부지면적에 상관없이, 도심에서 약 60km 떨어진 안성군 및 평택시지역(경부고속도로 주변지역에 한함)이 최적입지로 분석되었다. 2) 수송비와 지가, 건설비와의 장래 20년을 기준으로 한 누적비용분석결과 0~40km 구간의 경우 수송비의 누적비용이 지가와 건설비의 누적비용을 초과하지 않으며, 수송비의 누적비용이 지가와 건설비의 누적비용을 초과하는 기간이 가장 빠른 것은 물류단지가 50~55km 구간과 60~65km 구간에 입지 하였을 경우로, 이 구간에서의 수송비 누적비용이 지가와 건설비의 누적비용을 초과하는 기간은 9년 후인 2004년으로 분석되었다. 이는 도심과 인접한 지역의 경우 물류단지가 입지하지 못하는 것은 물류단지의 건설에 따른 수송비의 절감이 물류단지 건설에 따른 지가 및 건설비에 대한 비용부담에 못 미치기 때문인 것으로 분석되었으며, 화물의 특성상 불가피하게 도심지역과 가까운 곳에 물류단지의 입지를 고려해야 할 경우, 물류단지 조성시 정부에서의 세금완화, 물류단지 조성가능지역 설정, 지가에 대한 보조 등 정책적인 지원대책이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 3) 입지 비용중 수송비를 누적시킨 수송누적비용과 지가와의 비교분석결과 수송비를 5년, 10년 누적시켰을 때 이 물류단지의 최적입지는 도심에서 약 60km떨어진 곳으로 분석되었으며, 수송비를 20년 누적시켰을 경우 물류단지의 최적입지는 도심에서 약 50km떨어진 지점의 물류단지의 최적입지로 분석되었다.

We present a novel polymer fabrication process involving direct UV patterning of a hyperbranched polymer, AEO3000. Compared to PDMS, which is the most widely used polymer in bioMEMS devices, the present polymer has advantages with regard to electrode integration and fast fabrication. We designed a four-chip microelectrofluidic bench having three electrical pads and two fluidic I/O ports. We integrated a microfluidic mixer and a cell separator on the bench to characterize the interconnection performance and sample manipulation. Electrical and fluidic characterization of the microfluidic bench was performed. The measured electrical contact resistance was $0.75{\pm}0.44{\Omega}$, which is small enough for electrical applications, and the pressure drop was 8.3 kPa, which was 39.3% of the value in the tubing method. By performing yeast mixing and a separation test in the integrated module on the bench, we successfully showed that the interconnected chips could be used for bio-sample manipulation.

超硬合金과 高速度鋼에 TiC, TiN 그리고 $Al_2O_3$의 耐 마모 코우팅시에 사용되는 CVD와 PVD 기술을 M E Sjostrand와 A G Thelin 등이 본 논문에서 논의하였다. 또한 CVD와 PVD 의 특별한 장점과 응용영역에 대하여도 토의하였다. 수년동안 CVD 기술은 금속질화물, 금속탄화물 그리고 금속산화물 등의 耐 마모 코우팅을 생산하는데 성공적으로 사용되어 왔다. Munster와 Ruppert에서는 1950년대 초기에 TiC와 TiN의 CVD 공정을 연구했는데 이런 코우팅 재료의 높은 화학적 안정성과 더불어 高硬鋼라는 독특한 성질로 인해 그 주요 영역이 명백해졌다. 1968년에 처음으로 CVD법에 의한 보호막 코우팅의 대규모 응용이 이루어졌는데 그것은 超硬合金 절삭공구의 코우팅이었다. (그림1 참고) 이것은 硬금속산업에 있어서 가장 중요한 발전단계였다. TiC, TiN 그리고 $Al_2O_3$로 코우팅된 공구의 생산은 1970년대에 빠른 성장을 보였으며 오늘날 사용되는 절삭날의 50% 이상을 점유하고 있다. (그림2 참고) TiC와 TiN은 현재 이용되고 있는 모든 耐 마모 코우팅 중에서 독보적인 위치를 차지하고 있다. 그 이유는 생산과정이 비교적 단순하기 때문이다. 지난 5년동안 절삭공구와 總形바이트의 코우팅에 대한 PVD기술의 응용이 폭발적으로 증가했다. 증착기술인 이들 CVD와 PVD 각각은 자체의 독특한 장점이 있으므로 그 응용영역은 증착조건, 즉 기지금속의 접착성과 증착온도 그리고 증착속도등에 따라 매우 다를 것이다. PVD 공정으로 인해 고속도 공구강이 급속도로 발전되었고 더우기 PVD공정은 500$^{\circ}C$ 이하의 증착온도에서 brazed carbide 공구의 코우팅을 가능하게 하였다. 따라서 두 증착기술은 서로 상반적이라기 보다는 상호보완적인 것이라고 생각하는 편이 더 좋다.TEMPLA에 비해 CLB의 수가 15.58% 감소되었다. 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 정제된 효소의 최적온도는 40$^{\circ}C$이었으며 20~50$^{\circ}C$에서 비슷한 활성을 나타내었고, 30$^{\circ}C$에서는 60분동안 효소활성이 거의 상실되지 않았다. 정제된 효소는 ethanol과 chloroform 처리에는 안정하였으나 12mM AT 와 0.1mM $NaN_3$ 및 1mM KCN에 의해 90% 이상의 활성이 억제되었다.이에 근거하여 서울시 학생들($7{\sim}18$세)의 만성신부전증 유병률은 1백만명당 5.7명으로 추정되었다. 결론 : 서울시내 학생들 중 11세, 14세, 17세 3개 군에서 한 번 검사로 확인된 무증상 단백뇨의 유병률은 0.28%(약 2.8명/1,000명)이었고 이들중 약 5%만이 3차검사에서 신질환이 의심되었으며 이에 따른 신질환 유병률은 1만명당 1.4명이었다. $7{\sim}18$세 연령층에서 무증상으로 발생하는 사구체 신질환 중에는 IgA 신병증의 유병률이 가장 높아 1만명당 0.64명으로 추정되었고 만성신부전증의 유병률은 1백만명당 5.7명으로 추정되었다. 집단뇨 검사를 통해 확인되는 신질환은 대부분 사구체 질환이기 때문에 집단뇨검사의 의의는 좀더 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각되었다. 오히려 증상을 동반하는 경우보다 빈도가 증가한다는 사실은 집단뇨 검사에서 소변의 이상소견이 발견되어 신장 조직검사를 실시할 경우 혈청 $C_3$치의 감소 여부에 관계없이 MPGN도 진단적 고려 대상이 되어야 한다고 생각한다.신장 조직검사를 시행한 결과 진행성 경과를 취할 수 있는 막 증식성 사구체 신염과 매우 희귀한 증례인 신유전분증 등으로 진단됨으로써 지속성 단백뇨의 경우 정확 진단적 접근이 필수적임을 알 수 있다. 기립성

In this paper, we propose an asynchronous UWB (Ultra Wide Band) Positioning scheme that can provide precise positioning performance with low complexity and low power consumption. We also present the residual test to improve the positioning performance in multipath channels having heavy NLoS (Non-Line of Sight) components. As compared to conventional ToA (Time of Arrival) positioning scheme that requires round-trip transmissions as many as the number of beacons, the proposed UWB positioning scheme effectively decrease power consumption and processing delay since a single round-trip transmission is only required. Also, as compared to conventional TDoA (Time Difference of Arrival) positioning scheme requiring precise synchronization among the beacons, asynchronous nature of the proposed scheme achieves very low system complexity. Through simulations in LoS (Line of Sight) channel models, we observe that the proposed scheme requires low system complexity, low power consumption, while providing positioning performance of almost the same accuracy as the conventional ToA and TDoA positioning schemes. In addition, the proposed scheme by employing the residual test achieves accurate positioning performance even in multipath channels having heavy NLoS components.

In metal cutting the shape of generated chip varies according to cutting conditions, characteristics of workpiece and geometry of cutting tool. The best surface roughness of machined workpiece is obtained when generating flow type contrinuous chip. If the generated chip is not broken, that is not only tangled workpiece and cutting tool, but also may give damage on the machined surface of workpiece or danger for a operator. The flow type continuous chip may bring the low productivity in high speed any heavy cutting, automatic machining process and non-human factory. There are two type of chip break process ; controlling cutting condition and using chip breaker. In present study we carried out the experiment on new type chip breaker compared with conventional type and proved the efficiency of a new type and showed the chip break condition to be applied in actual metal cutting. In the experiment SM 20 C as a workpiece material and WC as a tool material were used and cutting speed of 30-150m/min, feed of 0.071-0.210mm/rev and depth of cut of 1mm were applied as cutting condition. The results of the experiment are as follows : (1) The mechanism of chip curl can be explained more clearly by plastic flow of workpiece material and moment of shearing force. (2) The most effective radius of curled chip and flat distance from cutting edge is 2.0-2.5mm and 1.5mm in both types. (3) The effective inclination angle of chip break surface and side cutting edge angle are 30.deg.- 45.deg. and 20.deg. in conventional type, while the radius of arc surface, lower arc angle A, upper arc angle B and side cutting edge angle are 3mm, 20.deg.- 45.deg., 0.deg.- 45.deg. and 10.deg.- 20.deg. in new type. (4) The probability to be obtained 100% chip breaking ratio is much higher in new type than in conventional type.
