The IMRT planning depends on the algorithm of each planning system and MLC performance of each Linac system. Yonsei Cancer Center introduced an IMRT System at the beginning of February, 2002. The system consists of CORVUS (Nomos, U.S.A.) treatment planning system, LANTIS, PRIMEVIEW and PRIMART (Siemens, U.S.A) linac system. The optimization of CORVUS planning system with PRIMART is an important task to make a desirable quality treatment plan. Our Step ＆ Shoot IMRT system uses Finite Size Pencil Beams (FSPB) dose model, simulated annealing optimization algorithm and IMFAST segmentation algorithm. We constructed treatment plans for four different patient cases with two basic beamlet sizes, 1.0$\times$1.0 $\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.5$\times$1.0 $\textrm{cm}^2$, and four intensity steps, 5%, 10%, 20%, 33%. Each case's plan was evaluated with the dose volume histograms of target volumes and delivery efficiencies. The patient case of small target volume is sensitive at the change of intensity map's segmentation and it highlighted an effective treatment plan at marrow intensity step and small basic projection beamlet.

히포크라테스(Hippokrates)이전의 그리스의학은 결코 의학이라고 부를수 없는 것이었다. B.C 11세기에 아스쿨레피오스(Asklepios)의 절이라고 불리는 $\lceil$병을 치료하는 절$\rfloor$이 있었다. 병자와 불구자들은 이 절에 와서 돼지와 양을 바치고 빌었다. 병은 신들이 인간을 달갑지 않게 여긴 결과 생긴 것이므로 건강을 회복하려면 물건을 바치고 정성을 들여야 한다고 믿었던 것이다. 그들은 절에 묵으면서 꿈을 꾸었고 중들은 해몽을 해서 병이 낫도록 도왔다. 때로는 약을 주기도 했다. 이 절의 중들은 강력한 의사승려의 조합을 이루었다.

첨단기술과 접목된 각종 뉴 미디어(New media)기기들이 속속 등장하면서 우리의 생활모습이 크게 달라지고 있다. 뉴 미디어의 발달은 음성(라디오), 글자(신문ㆍ잡지), 화상(TV)등 정보를 하나로 묶어(조합) 이들의 경계영역을 허물고 있을 뿐 아니라 쌍방향 정보전달체계가 갖춰짐으로써 전자책(CD-ROM)과 주문형 비디오(VDO)의 출현에서 집안에서 장보기ㆍ전자신문ㆍ화상회의 등 새로운 시대를 열어놓고 있다. 21세기 정보화사회의 주역이 될 뉴 미디어의 정체와 발전 현황, 그리고 이들이 가져다 줄 사회 등을 특집으로 엮어 보았다.

Eu doped YRO$_4$ (R=As, Nb, P, V) red phosphors were prepared by the combinatorial chemistry method. The quaternary material library of tetrahedron-type composition array was designed to investigate the luminescence of the host material under UV and VUV excitations (254, 147 nm). The photoluminescent characteristics of the samples were comparable to the commercially available red phosphors such as (Y, Gd)BO$_3$: $Eu^{3+}$ and Y$_2$O$_3$: In view of the luminescence yield, V rich region was found to be optimum under UV excitation. But the results under VUV excitation were different from those of UV excitation, the samples of the composition containing a large amount of P shows the highest luminescence. Especially, higher luminescence was obtained in $Y_{0.9}$(A$S_{0.06}$N$B_{0.06}P_{0.83}V_{0.06}$) O$_4$: $Eu_{0.1}$ phosphors than commercial (Y, Gd)BO$_3$red phosphors under 147 nm excitation.

We present the double resonance optical pumping(DROP) spectra according to the laser power, the polarization combination of lasers, and the alignment of lasers in the transition $5P_{3/2}-4D_{5/2}\;and\;5P_{3/2}-4D_{5/2}$ of $^{87}Rb.$ We observed obviously changing DROP spectrum according to the laser power in the transition $5P_{3/2}-4D_{5/2}$ involved the cycling transition. The laser power effects are attributed to the low optical-pumping-effect in the cycling transition. We observed changing DROP spectrum depending on the polarizations of the lasers. The laser polarization effects are attributed to the changing transition probability according to the polarizations of lasers. We compared the co-propagation with the counter-propagation and the spectral linewidths were 12.2 MHz and 6.9 MHz, respectively.

Using Fresnel diffraction theory a formula is drived for signal intensity variation caused by finite strip obstacles. Signal intensity according to parameter variation of the obstacle is theoretically calculated by a computer and compared with experimental results. For the experiment, an acryl board 3 mm thick was used on which a special material was painted to prevent some reflections and transmissions of the incident wave. 10-element Yagi antennas were used for transmitting and receiving antenna and the frequency was 820 MHz. Finally a tree model was made as a combination of many different finite strip obstacles. Signal attenuation calculated from numerical analysis agree reasonably with experimental data.

This paper investigates the effect of antenna polarization in Wireless Body Area Network(WBAN) off-body channel. The polarizations of antenna are divided into four combinations regarding Line-of-Sight(LOS) and Non-LOS(NLOS) environment. The human body keeps both still standing and moving to show that the impact of the polarization to signal. This paper confirms the performance depending on the polarization of receiver antenna and the combination of the polarizations on the off-body channel.

For complex-coupled (CC) DFB lasers, we found that there might be little correlation between the single mode yields at threshold and above threshold. At threshold, the single mode yield considering f number of in-phase (IP) CC DFB lasers is the same as that of anti-phase (AP) CC DFB lasers. However, the single mode yield as a function of injection current above threshold of IP CC DFB lasers is much different from that of AP CC DFB lasers. In the case of IP CC DFB lasers, the single mode yield increases as the coupling coefficient ratio (CR) increases, while, in the case of AP CC DFB lasers, the single mode yield decreases rapidly regardless of CR as the injection current increases. In the case of AR-HR combinations, the effect of AR ref1ectivity on the single mode yield increases as the coupling strength decreases. As the coupling strength decreases, the CR at which the increase rate of the single mode yield starts to decrease, increases, and the maximum single mode yield increases. Single mode yields of AR-HR and AR-AR combinations are larger than those of AR-CL and CL-CL combinations.

To provide the basis of biosensor based on the lux genes from bioluminescent bacteria of Photobacterium leiognathi and Vibrio harveyi, we test the expression of lux genes in several strains of Escherichia coli. The expression of the recombinant plasmid of PlXba.pT7-3, containing all lux genes requiring for light emission without adding substrate, in E. coli 43R was so strong to see the blue-green light in single colony as well as in the alginate immobilized cell. In addition, the light intensity was decreased by adding heavy metal ion such as cadmium and zinc ions. These result raise the possibility that a biosensor can be developed using the lux genes system.

This paper presents a fast fault simulation system for detecting stuck-at faults in mixed-level combinational logic circuits with gale level and switch -level primitives. For a practical fault simulator, the types are not restricted to static switch-level and/or gate-level circuits, but include dynamic switch-level circuits. To efficiently handle the multiple signal contention problems at wired logic elements, we propose a six-valued logic system and its logic calculus which are used together with signal strength information. As a basic algorithm for the fault simulation process, a well -known gate-level parallel pattern single fault propagation(PPSFP) technique is extended to switch-level circuits in order to handle pass-transistor circuits and precharged logic circuits as well as static CMOS circuits. Finally, we demonstrate the efficiency of our system through the experimental results for switch-level ISCAS85 benchmark combinational circuits and various industrial mixed-level circuits.
