A 1-year-old, castrated male Yorkshire terrier (case 1) and a 7-year-old female Poodle (case 2) presented with delayed union fractures. In case 1, the dog had a fractured right distal radius and ulna. In case 2, the dog had a fractured left distal tibia and fibula. A physical examination and radiographs performed in both dogs revealed delayed union fractures with large gaps. The fracture sites were fixed by bone plate and screws. Autogenous cancellous bone graft was applied into the fracture gap. To encourage rapid bone union, we used matrigel containing $20{\mu}g$ of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) in the fracture site. Radiographs were taken postoperatively to monitor healing. Rapid bone union was noted in both dogs in long-term radiographs. In case 1, the radiographs revealed that the fracture gaps of the radius and ulna were bridged at 2 weeks. Fracture lines were not observed and normal appearance was restored at 20 weeks. In case 2, the radiographs showed that fracture repair had progressed at 11 weeks. The fractures healed faster than expected in these two cases. The results indicate that rhBMP-2 and matrigel may be effective and useful materials to enhance healing of delayed fractures.

The main memory DBMS(MMDBMS) efficiently supports various database applications that require high performance since it employs main memory rather than disk as a primary storage. In this paper, we discuss theexperiences obtained in developing the index manager of the Tachyon, a next-generation MMDBMS. The indexmanager is an essential sub-component of the DBMS used to speed up the retrieval of objects from a largevolume of a database in response to a certain search condition. Previous research efforts on indexing proposed various index structures. However, they hardly dealt with the practical issues occured in implementating an index manager on a target DBMS. In this paper, we touch these issues and present our experiences in developing the index manager on the Tachyon as solutions. The main issues touched are (1) compact representation of an indexentry, (2) support of variable-length keys, (3) support of multiple-attribute keys, (4) support of duplicated keys,(5) definition of external APls, (6) concurrency control, and (7) backup and recovery. We believe that ourcontribution would help MMDBMS developers highly reduce their trial-and-errors.

고에너지 이온주입(1)에 기인한 격자 손상 발생 및 열처리에 따라 이들의 회복이 어느정도 가능한지에 대하여 측정 및 분석방법을 통하여 조사하였다. 그리고 본 실험에서는 이온주입시 형성되는 빈자리 결함(Vacancy defect)과 격자간 결함(interstitial defect)의 재결할(recombination)을 이용 점결합(point defect)를 감소 시킬 수 있는 effective RTA조건을 설정하여 well 특성을 개선하고자 하였다. 8inch p-type Si(100)기판에 pad oxide 100A을 형성한 후 NMOS 형성하기 위해 vtn${\sim}$p-well과 PMOS 형성을 위해 vtp$\sim$n-well을 이온주입 하였다. Mev damage anneal은 RTA(2)(Rapid Thermal Anneal)로 $1000\sim1150C$ 온도에서 $15\sim60$초간 spilt 하여 실험후 suprem-4 simulation data를 이용하여 실제 SIMS측정 분석결과를 비교하였으며 이온주입에 의해 발생된 격자손상이 열처리후 damage 정도를 알아보기 위해 T.W(Therma-Wave)을 이용하였으며 열처리후 면저항값은 4-point probe를 사용하였다. 이온주입후 열처리 전,후에 따른 불순물 분포를 SIMS(Secondary ion Mass Spectrometry)를 이용하여 살펴보았다. SIMS 결과로는 열처리 온도 및 시간의 증가에 따라서 dopant확산 및 활성화는 큰차이는 보이지 않고 오히려 감소하는 경향을 볼 수 있으며 또한 접합깊이와 농도가 약간 낮아지는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 결점(defect)을 감소시키기 위해서 diffusivity가 빠른 임계온도영역($1150^{\circ}C$-60sec)에서 RTA를 실시하여 dopant확산을 억제하고 점결점(point defect)의 재결합(recombination)을 이용하여 전위 (dislocation)밀도를 감소시켜 이온주입 Damage 및 면저항을 감소 시켰다. 이와 같은 특성을 process simulation(3)(silvaco)을 통하여 비교검토 하였다.

This study proposes a big data based risk analysis framework to analyze more comprehensive disaster risk and vulnerability. We introduce a distributed and parallel framework that allows large volumes of data to be processed in a short time by using open-source disaster risk assessment tool. A performance analysis of the proposed system presents that it achieves a more faster processing time than that of the existing system and it will be possible to respond promptly to precise prediction and contribute to providing guideline to disaster countermeasures. Proposed system is able to support accurate risk prediction and mitigate severe damage, therefore will be crucial to giving decision makers or experts to prepare for emergency or disaster situation, and minimizing large scale damage to a region.

Mumps, which are also known as epidemic parotitis,lead to viral infectious diseases that can cause complication such as pancreatitis, orchitis, hearing impairments, oophoritis, parotitis and meningitis. Central nervous system involvement has been reported in up to 65% of mumps patients, with most of these including meningitis. Meningoencephalitis is a rare central nervous system (CNS) complication of the mumps. Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccination has been reported protective effect against clinical complications and hospitalization. Here, we describe acute mumps meningoencephalitis in a 24-year-old female without parotitis who had received the MMR vaccination by age related schedule. She initially visited our hospital with aggravated cognition and confusion. After conservative viral treatment, she recovered cognitive function rapidly and complication was not remained. We report here a case of a patient with good recovery of mumps meningoencephalitis without parotitis after secondary vaccination for MMR.

Housing prices in the Korean housing market dropped at an unprecedented magnitude in 1998 after the economic crisis. With the support of housing policies to boost depressed housing markets, house prices managed to bounce back after the mid-1999. During the period of housing price decline and of its recovery, the degrees of house price changes were not even across the country. The cities could be classified into four groups regarding the differential rates of house price changes. The cities which had higher rates of decrease also had higher rates of increase. On the other hand, some other cities continuously experienced a price fall during the recovery period although the rate of housing price changes were relatively low after the economic crisis. Throught the processes of administering housing market depression due to the crisis of the economy, the cities which could fully redeem the level of house prices in housing markets between the Seoul Metropolitan area and the other parts of the country has been widened.

In the case of crown-root fracture due to traumatic injury in anterior tooth and the fracture margin is located subgingivally, forced eruption has been proposed for the reconstruction of deficient bone and soft tissue. Forced eruption is one of the easiest orthodontic approaches that can have an acceptable outcome and prognosis, and has a low incidence of relapse. However, using heavy forces or very fast movements can also cause tissue damage or ankylosis. The following case reports present forced eruption as treatment option of crown fracture in maxillary anterior teeth.

Brain abscesses in neonates are extremely rare and usually occur in patients with certain risk factors. A 1-month-old boy presented at the hospital with fever and irritability. As a result of preterm delivery and low birth weight, he had a history of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. Neuroimaging revealed a large, space-occupying lesion in both frontal lobes, which was suspected to be an abscess with the midline shifting to the right. With a single aspiration and abscess drainage along with concurrent prolonged parenteral antibiotic therapy, the patient showed an excellent treatment outcome with normal development. The focus will be placed on minimally invasive surgical management as well as positive outcomes.

Wireless networks play a very important role in communications today. For example, wireless networks today provide from the basic services like e-mail and FTP to the multimedia applications like Web service. It is obvious that QoS requirements to these diverse applications over wireless networks will continue as in wired networks. Much research has been done to develop QoS supporting algorithms on Internet. But due to the limited bandwidth and varying channel states of the wireless networks, it is difficult to support differentiated service over wireless networks. In this paper we propose the modified wireless token ring protocol supporting QoS to the real-time traffic service node over Internet environments in which non-real-time and real-time traffic service nodes coexist. In the proposed algorithm, the real-time traffic service node gets the priority to take token over the non-real-time traffic service node. So the proposed algorithm support quick transmission of the real-time traffic service node. And this advantage can be obtained with minor modification of the legacy wireless token ing protocol to support QoS. We also consider the lost token recovery mechanism.

Chronic granulomatous disease in childhood is a rare inheritable disorder of phagocytic cells in which defective production of the reactive intermediates of oxygen predisposes the patient to severe recuring pyogenic infections. The lung is the most common site of infection and pulmonary disease is the primary cause of death for greater than 50% of children with chronic granulomatous disease. Although the role of surgery in management of this disease remains undefined, rapid diagnosis of the underlying pulmonary problem is crucial to determine the most appropriate antimicrobial therapy and surgical techniques such as lobectomy of involved areas lead to more rapid recovery and thus allow the antibiotics to be more efficacious in these cases. We have treated a one month old male baby who had the chronic granulomatous disease with pulmonary infection. Wide surgical resection of the affected lobe and use of antibiotics and antifungals were carried out with good clinical results. He was well after the operation.
