In the study, the effect of low boiling point oxygenates in high viscous fuels on the exhaust emissions has been investigated for a single cylinder DI diesel engine. It was tested to estimated change of engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics for the base fuels and low boiling point oxygenates blended fuel which have six kinds of fuels and various mixed rates. The results of the study may be con eluded as follows By blending of various low boiling point oxygenated agents to lower grade fuels, significant improvements were simultaneously obtained in smoke, CO, PM, SOF and BSEC. Especially, these trends were remarkably obtained by retarding injection timing, by decreasing boiling point and increasing blending contents of additives in case of oxygenated agents rather than non-oxygenated agents. Also, it was revealed that when 20 vol.％ DMM added to high viscosity fuels and injection timing was retarded, Nox-smoke trade off relationship was much better than that of ordinary diesel fuel. Thus, lower grade fuels with high viscosity could be expected to be used efficiently and cleanly in diesel operation by blending low boiling point oxygenates.

With the rapid development of technologies related to Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN), sensors are being utilized in various application areas. In general, the data sensed by each sensor node on ubiquitous sensor networks are stored into the central server for efficient search. Because update is delayed to reduce the cost of update in this environment, uncertain data can be stored in the central server. In addition, Uncertain data make query processing produce wrong results in the central server. Thus, this paper examines how to process uncertain data in ubiquitous sensor networks and suggests a new index for efficient processing of uncertain data. The index reduces the cost of update by delaying update in uncertainty areas. Uncertainty areas are areas where uncertain data are likely to exist. In addition, it solves the problem of low accuracy in search resulting from update delay by delaying update only for specific update areas. Lastly, we analyze the performance of the index and prove the superiority of its performance by comparing its performance evaluation.

Characteristics of phenanthrene removal in an electrokinetic (EK)-Fenton process were investigated in a viewpoint of concentration and ionic strength of electrolytes. When three kinds of electrolytes (NaCl, $KH_2PO_4,\;and\;MgSO_4$) were used, the increase in electrolyte concentration caused the decrease of electrical potential gradient. The increase of electrical conductivity was due to the increase of ionic concentration in soil. The decrease of accumulated electroosmotic flow (EOF) with increase in electrolyte concentration was due to the decrease of zeta potential. The removal efficiency was in proportion to accumulated EOF which depended on ionic strength. Total energy expenditure without electrolyte was 10-30 times higher than its with 0.5 M electrolyte. The lower removal efficiency was caused by the lower energy expenditure with 0.5 M one. An effective EK-Fenton process was determined from considering the removal efficiency and the energy expenditure, simultaneously.

위치기반 서비스 시스템에서 주 요구사항은 사용자의 실시간 위치 정보 검색과 질의에 대한 빠른 응답시간이다. 그러나 기존의 위치기반서비스 시스템에서 저장장치로 사용하는 디스크 기반 데이터베이스 시스템은 빈번한 디스크 I/O로 인해 발생하는 질의응답에 대한 시간지연으로 이러한 요구사항을 만족시키지 못한다. 또한 주기억장치 데이터베이스 시스템은 한번에 주기억장치에 적재할 수 있는 양이 제한되어 있기 때문에 대용량의 공간 데이터를 처리하는데 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 위치기반서비스를 위하여 위치 정보 데이터의 다단계 저장 관리를 통해 LBS 플랫폼에서 실시간 서비스를 지원하는 하이브리드 저장 관리자를 제안한다. 하이브리드 저장 관리 시스템은 위치기반 서비스 시스템에서 대용량의 이동체 데이터의 효과적인 저장 및 관리를 위해 주기억장치 데이터베이스 관리시스템과 디스크 기반의 공간 데이터베이스 관리시스템을 통합한 구조를 가진다.

This study was undertaken to find the effect of radiation therapy on the healing ability of surgical wounds and on this basis, to find the proper time interval between the radiation therapy and surgery. Two hundred and fifty-two mice were used and a single dose of 2000 cGy was given in each instances to the hind limb of mice. Incisional wounds were produced after varying intervals in the previously irradiated areas and then they were followed up at regular intervals by the measurement of tensile strength. The wounds which received surgery immediately, 1 or 2 weeks after irradiation revealed marked delay and the wounds which received surgery 12, 16 or 20 weeks after irradiation demonstrated slight delay in wound healing in terms of tensile strength measurement. But the wounds which received irradiation 4 or 8 weeks before surgery did not differ much in the wound healing process from that of the control group. Histopathologic studies of the wounds demonstrated epithelization in most instances as quickly as in the control wounds. The appearance of fibroblasts and collagen fibers has delayed momently and appeared to have close correlation with the tensile strength healing curves.

Indexing techniques are used to implement selective tuning in wireless environments Indices are broadcast together with data to help mobile clients locate the required information. As a result, clients stay in doze mode most of the time. The drawback of this solution is that broadcast cycles are lengthened due to additional index information. In location-aware mobile services(LAMSs), it is important to reduce the query response time, since a late query response nay contain out-of-date information. In this paper, we present a broadcast-based spatial query processing method (BBS) designed to support k-NN query processing. In the BBS, broadcasted data objects are sorted sequentially based on their locations, and the server broadcasts the location dependent data along with an index segment. The performance of this scheme is investigated in relation to various environmental variables, such as the distributions of the data objects, the average speed of the clients and the size of the service area.

웹과 같은 분산 환경에서는, 웹 브라우저 상에서 SQL 형식의 공간 질의를 수행시키는 것과 또한 서버로부터 그 질의 결과를 보는 것이 가능하다. 그러나, 격자 이미지(raster image)와 같은 대용량 공간 데이타를 포함하는 질의 결과를 웹 브라우징할 때 발생하는 많은 문제점들 중에서, 사용자 응답 시간의 지연은 매우 중요한 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 재요청(callback) 접근 패턴이 공간적 근접성(spatial locality)을 따른다는 가정하에서의, 사용자 응답 시간을 최소화하기 위한 새로운 프리페치(prefetch) 전략에 대해서 서술한다. 본 논문의 프리페치 전략은 다음과 같이 요약될 수 있다. 첫째, 프리페치 알고리즘은 사용자의 접근 패턴을 잘 반영하는 힐버트 곡선(Hilbert-curve) 모델을 바탕으로 한다. 둘째, 프리페치 전송 비용을 줄이기 위해서 사용자의 재요청 시간 간격(think time)을 이용한다. 본 논문에서는, 힐버트 곡선을 이용한 프리페치 전략의 성능 평가를 위해서 다양한 실험을 하였으며, 그 결과로 프리페치를 하지 않는 방식보다 높은 성능 향상이 있음을 보인다.Abstract In distributed environment(e.g., WWW), it would be possible for the users to submit SQL-like spatial queries and to see their query results from the server on the Web browser. However, of many obstacles which result from browsing query results including large spatial data such as raster image, the delay of user response time is very critical. In this paper we present a new prefetch policy which can alleviate user response time on the assumption that user's callback access pattern has spatial locality. Our prefetch policy can be summerized as follows: 1) our prefetch algorithm is based on the Hibert-curve model which well replects user's access pattern, and 2) it utilizes user's callback interval to reduce prefetch network transmission cost. In this paper we conducted diverse experiments to show that our prefetch policy achieves higher performance improvement compared to other non-prefetch methods.

Recursive DNS is configured as primary or secondary DNS on user PC and performs domain name resolution corresponding user's DNS query. At present, the amount of DNS traffic is occupied high rate in the total internet traffic and the internet traffic would be increased by failure of IPv6 DNS queries and responses as IPv6 transition environment. Also, existing Recursive DNS service mechanisms is unstable on malicious user's attack same as DoS/DDoS Attack and isn't provide to user trust DNS service fail-over. In this paper, we propose IPv6 Recursive DNS service mechanisms for based on anycast for improving stability. It is that fail-over Recursive DNS is configured IPv6 Anycast address for primary Recursive DNS's foil-over. this mechanisms increases reliability and resiliency to DoS/DDoS attacks and reduces query latency and helps minimize DNS traffic as inducing IPv6 address.

Healthcare application system has been actively researched to apply WSN technology to healthcare area with a mobile sensor node of low cost, low power, and small size. Sensor node has the problem for transmission range of RF power and time delay of the wireless routing connectivity between sensor nodes. In this paper, we proposes a new method utilizing mobile sensor nodes with relay sensor nodes for quick network routing changing using query technique in healthcare system. A query processor to control and manage the routing changing of sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network was designed and implemented. The user's PC transmits the beacon message which will change the quick link routing according to activity status of patient in wireless sensor network. We describe the implementation for query protocol that is very effective of power saving between sensor nodes.
