Temporal databases support time-varying events so that conventional aggregate functions are extended to be processed with time for temporal aggregate functions. In the previous approach, it is done repeatedly to find time intervals and is calculated the result of each interval whenever target events are different. This paper proposes a method which processes temporal aggregate function queries using time point sequence. We can make time point sequence storing the start time and the end time of events in temporal databases in advance. It is also needed to update time point sequence due to insertion or deletion of events in temporal databases. Because time point sequence maintains the information of time intervals, it is more efficient than the previous approach when temporal aggregate function queries are continuously requested, which have different target events.

Simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or system over time. It concerns the study of the operating characteristics of real systems. Typically, a simulation project consists of several steps such as data collection, coding, model verification, model validation, experimental design, output data analysis, and implementation. Among these steps of a simulation study this paper focus on statistical analysis methods of simulation output data. Specially, we explain how to develop confidence interval estimators for mean ${\mu}$ in terminating and non-terminating simulation cases. We, then, explore the estimation techniques for $f({\mu})$, where the function $f({\bullet})$ is a nonlinear that is continuously differentiable in a neighborhood of ${\mu}$ with $f'({\mu}){\neq}0$.

We had proposed the RPA(Recursive Partition Averaging) method in order to improve the storage requirement and classification rate of the Memory Based Reasoning. That algorithm worked not bad in many area, however, the major drawbacks of RPA are it's partitioning condition and the way of extracting major patterns. We propose an adaptive RPA algorithm which uses the FPD(feature-based population densimeter) to stop the ARPA partitioning process and produce, instead of RPA's averaged major pattern, optimizing resulting hyperrectangles. The proposed algorithm required only approximately 40% of memory space that is needed in k-NN classifier, and showed a superior classification performance to the RPA. Also, by reducing the number of stored patterns, it showed an excellent results in terms of classification when we compare it to the k-NN.

The current study was conducted to investigate the effect of high quality hay on the performance and carcass characteristics of Hanwoo steers. Twenty(20) Hanwoo(7 months old) were allocated into either Control(rice straw fed) or Treatment(timothy hay and rice straw fed) group(10 animals per group) and fed for 710 days until the animals reached at 30 months old. Concentrates were fed according to the feeding program composed with three(3) phases; growing, fattening, and finishing period. For the overall feeding period, final body weights were 761.3 and 799.6kg for the Control and Treatment groups, respectively, showing 38.3kg heavier body weight in Treatment group. ADG were 0.79 and 0.84kg for Control Treatment groups, respectively. These results might be because of the intake of high quality hay during growing phase and the effects persisted until the end of the experiment. Feed intake tended to be higher in Treatment group whereas feed conversion did not show significant difference between groups. Cold carcass weights were 451.0 and 475.3kg for Control and Treatment, There were no significant difference between groups in both yield and quality grade. There were no remarkable differences in physico-chemical characteristics fatty acid composition of carcasses between groups. In conclusion, it would be beneficial to feed high quality hay such as timothy during growing period of Hanwoo steers to produce high quality beef with heavier live and carcass weight.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of linear search and bit reversal search algorithms based on the single-dwell serial search for rapid UWB (Ultra Wide Band) signal acquisition in typical indoor wireless channel environments. Simulation results according to bin spacing and frame interval in IEEE 802.15 Task Group 3a UWB indoor wireless channels show that bit reversal search algorithm achieves much smaller normalized mean acquisition time than linear search algorithm. In particular, it is found that the normalized mean acquisition time of the bit reversal search according to the range of searching termination interval closely matches the ideal case. In addition, we observe that the acquisition performance of bit reversal search algorithm becomes much better as bin spacing gets finer.

Recently, the effective use of closed waste landfill nearby urban areas has been demanded, because of the lack of the usable land. However, the reuse of closed landfill is needed an adequate stabilization of liner system. But most of these places are consisted of steep slope and hence it is necessary to use the geosynthetics liners in there. Liner system of waste landfills is an important facility which prevents leachate outgoing from the landfills and also groundwater infiltrating from surroundings into the landfills. During the waste disposal stage, differential settlement and tensile stress of the geosynthetic materials could occur due to impact load of trucks and dozers, waste loads and weak foundation soils. In this study, the tensile strength and tracer test were performed to evaluate the stability of geomembrane liner systems. Based on the tensile strength test result of in-situ geomembrane sample, the yield tensile strength maintain the suitable strength by specification and current law. However, according to the tracer test, the damage of geomembrane liner was detected on sanitary landfill section.

Geophysical methods applied to water seepage problem in earth-fill embankment attempt to detect and map the estimate of size and depth of the seepage path. Seepage zones generally produce lOW resistivity anomalies due to high saturation of water. Dipole-dipole resistivity surveying technique, which is actually a combined sounding-profiling procedure, was used to delineate the seepage path through this study. In this study, the finite difference methods to solve the electric potential distribution in 2 112 dimension, was adopted as the numerical scheme for the forward problem. Second order Marquart's method, one the iterative damped least square methods, was selected for the automatic inversion. The computer program was implemented in FORTRAN 77 for 1 6-bit personal computer. In this paper, we present a case history which illustrates the application of dipole-dipole resistivity method to the delineation of water flow in earth-fill structures. Also the automatic two-dimensional resistivity inversion was applied to a field data where the interpretive advantages of the program become evident.

This paper presents the numerical simulations of future river bed changes using CCHE2D, a two-dimensional numerical model, for river confluences at the confluences of the Nakdong River and Gamcheon as well as Geum River and Mihocheon. The numerical simulations of future river bed changes were conducted for three years using hydrological data from August 30, 2012, to August 29, 2015 after the Four Major River Restoration Project. The simulation results demonstrated that river bed changes occurred actively near the confluence where sediment deposition was concentrated, resulting in the possibility of point bar formation. Through the numerical simulations, the characteristics of future river bed change was evaluated by investigating the characteristics of bed changes, average bed elevation changes, and the difference between deposition and erosion in the target section. The two-dimensional numerical model is expected to be used in the future to prepare effective stabilization plans for the tributary confluence.

This study examined the possibility on the dietary value and cryopreservation of the marine microalga, Isochrysis galbana. Four cryoprotectants, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), glycerol (Gly) and 1.2-propanedial (PD) were tested at the concentrations of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 M respectively. The highest survival rates were obtained with 1.5 and 2.0 M of four cryoprotectants yielding a survival rate of 80%. Cell concentration of $30\;{\times}\;10^4\;cell/ml$ at the initial point of the experiment was increased to $365\;{\times}\;10^4\;cell/ml$ in 1.5 M of dimethyl sulfoxide, $298\;{\times}\;10^4\;cell/ml$ in 1.5 M of ethylene glycol, $512\;{\times}\;10^4\;cell/ml$ in 1.5 M of glycerol, and $385\;{\times}\;10^4\;cell/ml$ in 1.5 M of 1.2-propanedial after five days, respectively. In dietary value experiment, survival rate and growth were not significantly different.

A 12-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of probiotics as a feed additive for juvenile Korean rockfish Sebastes schlegeli. Four experimental diets supplemented with no probiotic(Control), Bacillus polyfermenticus(BP), Bacillus licheniformis(BL) or Bacillus polyfermenticus plus Saccharomyces cerevisiae(BP+SC) at $1.0{\times}10^7$ CFU/kg diet as a dry-mater(DM) basis were prepared by mixing with a basal diet. After 12 weeks of the feeding trial, fish fed BP+SC diet showed significantly higher weight gain(WG), feed efficiency(FE), specific growth rate(SGR) and protein efficiency ratio(PER) than those of fish fed control diet(P<0.05), however there were no significant differences in WG, FE, SGR and PER among fish fed the BP, BL and BP+SC diets. Fish fed BP and BP+SC diets showed significantly higher condition factor(CF) than that of fish fed control and BL diets. Fish fed BP, BL, BP+SC diets showed significantly higher hepatosomatic index(HSI) than that of fish fed control diet, however there was no significant difference in HSI among fish fed BP, BL and BP+SC diets. Fish fed BP+SC diet showed significantly lower serum glucose than that of fish fed control diet, however there was no significant difference in serum glucose among fish fed BP, BL and BP+SC diets. Fish fed BP+SC diet showed significantly higher respiratory burst activity(NBT assay) than that of the fish fed control and BL diets, however there was no significant difference in NBT assay between fish fed BP and BP+SC diets. Fish fed BP and BL diets showed significantly higher lysozyme activity than that of the fish fed control diet, however there was no significant difference in lysozyme activity among fish fed BP, BL and BP+SC diets. Fish fed BP and BP+SC diets showed significantly lower cumulative mortality than that of the fish fed control diet, however there was no significant difference in cumulative mortality among fish fed BP, BL and BP+SC diets after the challenge test. From these results, dietary B. polyfermenticus, B. licheniformis and B. polyfermenticus plus S. cerevisiae supplementation in juvenile Korean rockfish diet could enhance growth performances, non-speicific immunities and a higher resistance against the specific pathogen.
