NVRAM(Non-volatile RAM)이란 전원을 공급하지 않아도 데이터를 유지할 수 있는 RAM 이다. 비휘발성 메모리이기 때문에 Flash 와 동일한 기능을 제공할 수 있다. 또한 Flash 에 비해 저전력으로 동작하고, 읽고 쓰는 동작도 더 빠르며 내구성까지 뛰어나다. 즉, NVRAM 은 리소스가 제한적인 사물인터넷(IoT) 장치에서 Flash 를 대신하여 전력소모 및 지연시간 측면에서 효과적으로 사용될 수 있는 메모리이다. IoT 장치는 일반적으로 배터리와 같은 독립전원 장치로 작동하거나, 최근에는 에너지 하베스터를 활용한 간헐적 컴퓨팅 방식도 활용되고 있다. 간헐적 컴퓨팅 방식에서는 전원이 꺼졌을 때도 프로그램의 상태를 유지하기 위해 비휘발성 메모리에 백업동작이 필수적이다. 그러므로 백업을 위한 메모리를 Flash 가 아닌 NVRAM 으로 대체하게 되면 효율적이고, 상대적으로 백업 및 복구에 의한 비휘발성 메모리에 접근이 많은 간헐적 컴퓨팅에서는 더 큰 효율을 볼 수 있다. 하지만 현재 NVRAM 이 내장된 개발보드가 제한적이고, NVRAM 을 외부 모듈로서 사용하기 위해 SPI 또는 I2C 통신을 사용해야 한다. 그 외에도 동시에 공유 메모리에 접근하는 등의 문제를 막아야 한다. 이러한 문제를 막고, NVRAM 을 편리하게 사용할 수 있도록 추상화 계층을 만들어 NVRAM 테스팅 환경을 제공하여 해당 분야의 연구개발을 가속화할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 논문에서는 NVRAM 의 한 종류인 FRAM 을 사용하여 추상화 계층을 구현하였다.

This study is to have dose reduction and minimization of excessive use of contrast medium in the pediatric cardiac computed tomography and to suggest the optimization plan to acquire the enhancement image of the 4 chambers at the same time by formulating scan delay time in empirical method with considering variables such as contrast medium injection velocity and cardiac approaching time. Quantitative, qualitative and dose assessment were carried out for 30 pediatric patients who had taken the cardiac examination. In conclusion, image enhancement in 4 chambers of the cardiac shows over 300 HU which is proper to pediatric cardiac reading by applying the empirical method with calculating scan delay time according to weight and contrast medium volume and injection velocity. Qualitative image assessments in confidence sharpness and noise have excellence qualitatively. Exposure dose to pediatrics also decreases precisely. Therefore this study is judged to take a important role of making optimization images with advantages of dose reduction and less side effects caused by it's excessive use in clinic.

This study was conducted to know whether Gamiyookmijihwangtang(GY) which is Yookmijihwang added with Liriopis tuber, Anemarrhenae rhizoma and Phellodendri cortex can remedy the overt diabetes in diabetes-prone BB(BBDP) rats. The rats were given GY through the mother from the fetal stage until birth. After birth they received GY through breast feeding until 20 days old. From 21 days old which is the beginning of the weaning period 60 BB rats(30 males and 30 females) were divided into 2 experimental groups(BBDP and BBDP-GY) and placed individually in metabolic cages. BBDP was the control group which didn't receive any GY and BBDP-GY received 16 mL/㎏ B.W./day of GY until 120 days old. The antidiabetic effects of GY were characterized by the clinical features such as polyurea, polydipsia, hyperglycaemia and the rapid loss of body weight. Body weight, water consumption, urine volume and blood glucose level showed no signs of impending diabetes but after onset there were big changes in those parameters. The onset of diabetes was delayed and the incidence of diabetes was also much decreased with GY but after onset there were no beneficial effects from it.

This paper studies how to solve a problem caused by M2M terminals sending a few data based on $3^{rd}$ Generation Partnership Project(3GPP) Long Term Evolution-Advanced(LTE-A) system and then it is analyzed, proposed, and introduced into the techniques. Especially, it is introduced solution for the lack of Random Access Channel and an increasing number of latency caused by countless M2M devices. It is proposed the technology for M2M grouping as well as allowable access probability according to user type. As it decreases the number of terminal by grouping M2M devices to try random access at PRACH, it can be reduced collision between Cellular users and M2M devices. So, it is proved that the proposed mechanism can solve the increasing average latency of random access on system coexisting Cellular users and M2M devices through simulations.

In order to maximize the throughput and provide the fairness between users in MIMO-OFDM system, FATM(fairness-aware throughput maximization) scheduling algorithm was proposed. In this paper, a QoS-aware scheduling algorithms for MINO-OFDM system are proposed, each of which is based on FATM. These scheduling algorithms aim to satisfy the different service requirements of various service classes. Three proposed QoS scheduling algorithms called SPQ (Strict Priority Queueing), DCBQ (Delay Constraint Based Queuing), HDCBQ (Hybrid Delay Constraint Based Queuing) are compared through computer simulations. It is shown that HDCBQ algorithm outperforms other algorithms in satisfying different requirements of various service classes.

Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN) 기반의 Border Surveillance Networks(BSN)는 다양한 제한조건을 동반하며 침입 혹은 환경 등을 감시함을 목적으로 하고 있기 때문에 이벤트 발생시 신뢰적인 데이터 전송은 매우 중요한 부분을 차치하게 된다. 본 논문에서 적용한 대표적인 요구기반 라우팅 방법인 Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing(AODV)는 BSN 에 적용하였을 경우 홉 수(Hop Count)를 메트릭으로 최적의 경로를 계산하고 선택하여 Uni-Path 로 데이터를 전송하게 된다. 이때 AODV 는 Uni-path 로 데이터 전송을 진행하게 되며 링크의 단절이 빈번히 발생하는 BSN 의 환경적 요인으로 데이터 전송의 신뢰성이 감소하게 될 것이며 이는 비효과적인 데이터 전송을 야기하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Multi-path 개념을 도입하여 데이터 전송 시 링크단절에 의해 발생하는 시간의 지연을 줄이고 더욱 신뢰성 있게 데이터를 전송할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 송, 수신하는 두 노드의 전송범위에 공통으로 속한 노드들이 전송되는 데이터를 중복 전송하게 된다. 그리하여 링크의 단절이 일어날 경우 발생하는 경로 재 탐색 및 경로복구의 발생 빈도를 줄이고 동시에 데이터 전송률을 증가시켜 신뢰적인 데이터 전송을 하게 된다.

EMAT has been applied in various fields for flaw detection and material characterization because it has noncontact property in wave generation and a good mode selectivity. Unfortunately, however, EMAT shows low signal to noise ratio relative to commercial contact transducer because of low energy conversion efficiency. If the phase matching through the control of time delay between each coil consisting of the array EMAT is accomplished, it is expected that it will be a solution for the improvement of low signal to noise ratio. In this experiment, the phased array EMATs which consists of 3 or 4 meander coils and one big magnet were fabricated for surface and vertical shear wave generation. Effect of phased delay control on signal directivity and amplitude enhancement was verified. A slit with the depth of 0.5 mm and a side-drill hole of 0.5 mm diameter were clearly detected by fabricated phased array EMATs, respectively.

Antagonistic interaction between glyphosate and some herbicides in effects of post-emergence application on cut grass and of pre-emergence application on some weed species including barnyardgrass was evaluated with pots in plastic house. By addition of oxyfluorfen to glyphosate, the weeding efficacy on cutgrass was visually evaluated as promotive in both weeding rate and efficacy. However, by alachlor, simazine, gluphosinate or quizalofop-ethyl showed delayed weeding rate, and by paraquat, the promotive in rate but lower in efficacy, respectively. Fresh weights of cutgrass at 30 days after the lower-rate application has generally indicated the lower weeding efficacy than that from glyphosate alone. Even at higher rate application, the addition of alachlor or simazine to glyphosate has still indicated the lower efficacies. As a result of interaction analysis by Colby method, no synergism was detected from any treatments, and the combinations of simazine or paraquat to glyphosate in lower mixing rate showed significant antagonism at 5% probability level of DMRT. On the annual weed species including barnyardgrass, the significant soil-residual weeding efficacies were recognized by addition of any rate of oxyfluorfen, alachlor, simazine and higher rate of quizalofop-ethyl to glyphosate, respectively.

This study was carried out to develop a method for decreasing the heavy metal composition of living stock. Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rats were pre-treated with heavy metals administered i.p. at the limits of regulation according to the feed CODEX in Korea. Herbal medicine remnant was administered p.o. (2, 4 ppm of average feeding amount) for the entire period of study with organic selenium (2 ppm of average feeding amount) before any other treatment. 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH) was also administered i.p. in a single dose of 60 mg/kg body weight before animals were sacrificed. The TBARS test with the FOX assay demonstrates a decrease of heavy metals due to these functional materials in vitro. Moreover, this decrease in heavy metals was also demonstrated by in vivo tests based on SD rats hair analysis and organ analysis after 6 weeks. A good linear correlation between hair analysis and organ analysis represented by liver and blood was shown. The present findings suggest that measurement method of heavy metal composition using hair analysis for healthy livestock can be used in place of detection methods carried out by organ and blood analysis, and herbal medicines with organic selenium may be very effective at decreasing heavy metals of feed materials in feed manufacture industry.

Cookies containing wheat flour mixed with 10, 30 or 50% esterified with octenylsuccinic anhydride (OSA, 3%) and dry-heated ($130^{\circ}C$, 2 hr) high amylose rice (Goami 2) starch (DH-OSAR) were prepared and then their physical and digestive properties were evaluated. When the amount of added DH-OSAR increased, the hardness and brittleness of the cookies decreased, and L (brightness) value increased. For the digestive properties, the cookies containing 50% DH-OSAR significantly increased the amount of slowly digestible starch (SDS), and decreased the amount of rapidly digestible starch (RDS), resulting in the lowest expected Glycemic Index (eGI) among tested cookies. Although the cookies containing DHOSAR were inferior to the control, the addition of xanthan gum (0.5% based on total powder amount) significantly improved their textural and sensory properties. Specially, the cookies containing 50% DH-OSAR and the addition of 0.5% xanthan gum showed the lowest eGI value, maintaining the improved textural and sensory properties.
