담수 유입이 항만 내 해수순환에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 인천 남항의 남측에 위치한 신국제 여객터미널 해역에 3차원 유동 수치 모델을 구축 및 적용하였다. 수치 모델의 모의 기간은 경기만 지역의 평수기인 5월 15일부터 6월 30일까지 약 45일이며, 모델 결과와 관측자료의 비교를 통하여 유동과 염분 변화에 관한 모델의 재현성을 검증하였다. 신국제 여객터미널에 영향을 미치는 담수 공급원은 한강과 항만 동쪽에 위치한 용현 갯골 유수지가 있다. 유수지의 유무에 따른 잔차류 결과를 분석해 보면, 한강과 유수지가 모두 고려된 실험안이 한강만을 고려한 실험안보다 염분 경사에 의한 2층 흐름 구조(표층은 외해 방향, 저층은 항 내를 향한 흐름 구조)가 수평적으로 더 강하게 발달한다. 이는, 한강으로부터의 담수 영향보다 유수지로부터의 담수 영향이 신국제 여객터미널 해역에서 더 크다는 것을 시사한다. 또한, 잔차류의 2층 흐름 구조는 북쪽에 위치한 인천 남항보다, 남쪽에 위치한 신국제 여객터미널에서 더 강한 2층 흐름 구조가 발생한다. 이 프로세스는 유수지로부터의 담수와 항 내로 전파된 조류가 만나 신국제 여객터미널 방향으로 회전되어 전파되면서, 남쪽에 위치한 신국제 여객터미널에 저염수가 전달됨에 따라 형성된다. 이러한 흐름은 신국제 여객터미널 전면부에서 수평적인 염분 경사에 의한 성층을 강화시키며, 강화된 성층은 2층 흐름 구조를 형성 및 유지시킨다. 따라서, 항만 내의 경압 작용에 의한 해수순환과 물질이동을 재현하고자 할 때, 유수지와 같은 국지적인 담수 유입원이라도, 항만 내의 해수순환에 지배적인 영향을 미치므로, 현장 관측 자료를 기반으로 유수지에서 방류되는 실시간 담수 유량에 따른 수치모델을 수행해야 한다.

본실험은 우리 나라 중부지방에 있어서의 수도의 재배 시기를 이동함에 따르는 실용제형질의 변화를 구명하기 위하여1958~'60년의 3개년에 걸쳐 농업시험장(현 작물시험장) 답작과(수원)에서 시행한 실험으로서 공시품종은 조만성, 초형 등 생태적특성을 달리하는 연산.수원 8002.오조.팔달 및 조광의 5품종을 공시하였으며, 파종기는 3월 2일 ~7월 10일까지를 10일 간격으로 14회에 걸쳐 파종하였고, 또 각 파종기마다 각각 못자리 일수를 30일, 40일, 50일, 60일, 70일 및 8일묘로 하여 이앙하여 실험하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 출수기 : 1) 파종기가 지연됨에 따라서 출수기도 거의 일직선으로 지연되나, 그 정도는 조생종에서 크고 만생종은 작으며, 또 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라서 커진다. 2) 출수까지의 일수는 각 품종 모두 파종기의 지연에 따라서 거의 일직선으로 단축하나, 품종에 따라 그 정도의 차이가 있어서 조생종은 단축일수가 작고 만생종이 크다. 그리고 동일품종 내에서도 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 단축일수는 작아졌다. 또 최단축일수에 도달하는 시기도 조생종은 빠르나 만생종은 늦어진다. 또 못자리 일수가 긴 구에서 그 시기는 빨라진다. 품종 및 못자리 일수에 따라 차이가 있으나 어느 시기 이후의 파종기가 되면 단축을 나타내지 않게 되고, 다시 파종기가 늦어지면 한냉한 기후의 영향을 받아 출수일수는 오히려 연장된다. 3) 파종기(X)와 출수까지의 일수(Y)와의 회귀직선식 Y=a+bX의 계수 b(출수일수단축율)와 평균일수일수와는 고도의 상관이 인정되며, 평균출수일수가 클수록, 즉 만생종일수록 파종기의 지연에 의한 출수촉진일수가 컸었다. 4) 어느 품종의 파종기가 동일역일이면 못자리 일수가 극단으로 길지 않은 범위 내에서는(파종기의 지연에 따라서 출수까지의 일수가 직선적으로 단축되는 범위내에서의) 출수일수의 년차간의 변이는 크지 않으므로 목적하는 품종에 대한 수회의 파종기에 걸쳐 출수기의 변동을 조사하여 실험식(파종기와 출수까지의 일수와의 회귀직선식)을 구해 두면 임의의 재배시기에 있어서의 출수기를 추정할 수 있다. 5) 파종기가 3월하순~6월중순, 못자리 일수가 30~50일의 범위에서는 보통기재배에 있어서의 품종의 출수기의 조만을 가지고 그 전후에 해당하는 파종기에 있어서의 각각의 품종에 대한 출수기를 추정할 수 있다. 2. 성숙기 : 6) 출수기가 지연됨에 따라서 성숙한계 출수기의 범위 내에서는 성숙기도 거의 일직선으로 지연된다. 그 정도는 품종 및 못자리 일수의 장단에 의한 차이가 크다. 평균온도의 영향을 받는 범위 내에서는 출수기(X)가 지연됨에 따라서 성숙기간 중의 평균온도(Y)는 그것에 따라서 저하하며 품종간에 차이가 있으나, 전체적으로 보아 양자의 관계를 8월 1일부터 9월 13일까지의 범위에서는 Y=25.53-0.182X의 회귀직선식으로 나타낼 수 있다. 7) 품종의 조만생에 의한 성숙기간에 있어서의 평균온도의 차이가 심하며, 조생종은 최고 28$^{\circ}C$의 고온에서 경과하나 만생종은 22$^{\circ}C$에 불과하다. 8) 성숙기간중의 평균온도(X)와 성숙일수와의 관계는 극히 높은 상관이 인정되며, 양자의 관계를 Y=82.30-1.55X의 회귀직선식으로 표시할 수 있었다. 성숙기간중의 평균기온이 18~28$^{\circ}C$의 범위 내에서는 온도가 1$^{\circ}C$ 상승함에 따라서 성숙일수는 1.55일 단축되는 결과가 되며, 품종별로는 관산이 2.24일로서 단축정도가 컸고, 수원 8002가 0.78일로서 가장 적었다. 따라서 수원지방에 있어서는 평균온도가 18~28$^{\circ}C$의 범위에서는 온도가 상승함에 따라 성숙속도가 빨라진다고 할 수 있다. 9) 각 파종기별로 본 출수까지의 일수(X)에 대한 성숙기간중의 적산온도(Y)와의 관계는 거의 완전한 정의 상관관계가 있고, 성숙기간중의 적산온도는 어느 범위 내에 있어서의 파종기의 이동에 의한 차이는 비교적 작다. 3. 간장 및 수장 : 10) 품종간의 차이는 있으나 비교적 조파가 된 구간에는 간장에 큰 변화는 없으나 계속 파종기가 지연되어 만파가 되면 공시품종 모두 간장의 감소가 뚜렷해졌다. 또 간장의 감소정도는 약묘에서 완만할 뿐만 아니라, 5월 21일~6월 10일 파종과 같이 비교적 만파를 하더라도 별로 감소되지는 않으나, 80일묘와 같은 노숙묘인 때는 보통기재배에서도 급격히 감소한다. 11) 수장의 변화도 간장과 동일한 경향을 보이나 파종기의 지연에 의한 수장의 변화는 30~40일묘에서는 거의 인정되지 않았고, 못자리 일수가 길어지면 수장의 감소가 뚜렷해진다. 4. 수수 : 12) 파종기가 지연됨에 따라서 일정한 시기까지 계속수수는 감소하다가 어느 시기 이후가 되면 새로이 고차분얼의 다량발생으로 수수가 증가한다. 그 시기는 못자리 일수에 따라 차이가 있으며, 30~40 일묘는 5월 31일~6월 10일 파종기인 만파에서 수수가 최대로 감소하며, 70~80일묘의 경우 4월 11일~4월 21일의 파종기에서 이미 수수가 최대로 감소한다. 5. 지경수 : 13) 지경수는 파종기가 지연됨에 따라서 어느 일정한 시기까지는 변화가 없으나, 그 시기가 지나면 수당지경수의 감소가 현저하다. 14) 지경수가 감소되기 시작하는 시기도 30~40 일묘에서는 5월 3일 이후의 파종기가 되나, 80일묘의 경우 5월 31일 파종에서 이미 감소될 뿐만아니라, 5월 31일 파종이 되면 지경수가 3~4개에 불과하였다. 6. 비중과 천입중 : 15) 파종기의 이동에 따라 비중은 서서히 증가하나 어느 시기를 넘으면 급격히 증가하며, 이를 2개의 상이한 회귀직선으로 표시할 수 있다. 16) 이 양직선이 교차되는 지점을 성숙가능한계기로 보면 이 시기는 못자리 일수와 밀접한 관계가 있어서 30~40일묘는 6월 10일 반중기에 해당하나, 70~80일묘에서는 5월 1일로서 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 성숙한계기는 당겨진다. 17) 천입중은 보통기재배에서 가장 무겁고 극조기재배를 하거나 만기재배에서 천입중은 저하한다. 7. 고중 및 완전정조중 : 18) 품종의 조만에 큰 영향없이 III~IV 파종기까지의 조기재배 하에서는 못자리 일수의 장단에 의한 고중의 큰 변이는 없으나, 파종기가 계속 이동하여 보통기재배가 되면 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 차차 고종이 감소되어 오다가 만파가 되자 그 감소정도가 급격해졌다. 19) 파종기(X)와 정조수량(Y)과의 관계는 품종ㆍ못자리 일수를 종합하여 직선에 가까운 포물선으로 나타낼 수 있었다(Y=77.28-7.44X$_1$-1.001X$_2$). 따라서 조파시에는 정조수량의 변이가 작으나 어느 시기보다 파종기가 늦어짐에 따라서 정조수량은 감소하며, 그 정도는 만파인 경우에 심하고, 또 못자리 일수가 길어짐에 따라 더욱 현저하다. 20) 출수일수(X)에 대한 정조수량(Y)의 관계는 품종ㆍ못자리 일수를 구별하지 않고 보아다 회귀직선식으로써 나타낼 수 있었으나, 출수일수가 60~110일 정도까지는 조생종이 수량이 많고 만생종은 만기재배에 해당하므로 정조중의 감소가 심하였고, 출수일수가 140일 정도 이상이 되면 정조중이 거의 증가하지 않은 경향이 뚜렷하였다.

본 연구는 fibroin을 피복하여 견섬유의 경막적 성질을 지배하는 sericin에 대한 일연의 연구를 수행하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. I. Sericin Fraction의 물리화학적 특성에 관한 실험 1) 난용성 sericin은 역용성 sericin에 비하여 polar side chain을 가진 amino산(Tyr, Ser)은 적은 반면 alanine과 leucine 등의 수화성이 적은 amino산이 측정되었다. 2) 수화성의 amine산은 견사의 외층부에서, 그리고 수화성이 적은 amino산은 fibroin에 가까운 부위에 많이 존재하였다. 3) 용수에 대한 sericin의 팽윤, 용해성은 alnino산 조성만으로 해석하기는 곤란하며 sericin의 결정구조나 이차구조와의 복합구조로 변화한다고 생각된다. 4) 견사의 간섭은 환상에 가까우나 정연처리로서 소멸하였다. 5) 작잠견 sericin은 가잠견 sericin과 차이가 있었는데 자오선상에 강한 환상 Ring이 많았다. 6) Mosher 법으로 분별한 A와 B fraction 사이의 amino산 조성에는 차이가 없었다. 7) Sericin I, II, III의 X-선도에 있어서는 큰 차이는 인정되지 않으나 측쇄간격에 해당 하는 Ring에서 차이가 인정되었다. 8) 분자량 150이상의 amino산(Cys, Tyr, Phe, His,Arg)은 6N-HCl, 60분의 가수분해로서 정양되지 않았다. 9) 4.6$\AA$의 X-선 간섭은 습열과 ether 및 alcohol로 처리하므로서 소멸하는 경향이었다. 10) sericin의 가수분해물(6N-HCl)은 자오선상에 간섭 Ring(2$\AA$)을 출현시켰다. 11) 가수분해 sericin 잔사는 어느 특정한 amino산의 peptide로 추정된다. 12) Seriein III의 분해온도는 Sericin I과 II보다 높았다. 13) 견층 부위별 sericin의 D.T.A 곡선에 었어서, 내층의 sercin은 15$0^{\circ}C$와 245$^{\circ}C$에서 흡열 peak가 나타나고 외, 중층의 것보다 고온측에 이동하였다. 14) IR-spectrum에 의한 sericin fraction(Sericin I, II, III, 외층, 중층 및 내층의 sercin)의 적외선흡수 결과는 일치하였다. II. 제사공정에서의 Sericin의 팽윤, 용해특성에 관한 실험 1) 3,000 R.P.M으로 침지처리된 견층의 자유성수분은 15분간으로 탈수가 가능하고 이 경우의 원심력은 13$\times$$10^4$dyne/g 이었다. 2) sericin에 대한 Folin시약의 발색에 필요한 시간은 실온에서 30분이었다. 3) 가시광선중 측정가능파장은 500~750m$\mu$이다. 4) 실제 비색정량의 경우 정도가 높은 측정치를 얻기 위해서는, 저농도(10$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$)인 때는 650m$\mu$에서 그 이상의 농도에서늘 500m$\mu$으로 측정해야 했다. 5) sericin과 egg albumin의 파장별 흡광도곡선형은 일치하나 흡광도는 sericin이 높았다. 6) 비색분석법에 의하여 측정된 sericin의 량은 Kjeldahl 법에 비해 적은 값을 나타냈다. 7) 견층의 팽윤, 용해도에 영향하는 처리조건으로서는 온도와 시간으로서 시간보다도 온도의 방과가 켰다. 8) 팽윤, 용해도를 촉진하는 처리온도와 시간과의 관계는 저온(7$0^{\circ}C$)에서는 시간의 증가에 따라서 팽윤, 용해도는 서서히 증대하나 고온에 있어서는 단시간의 처리로 현저히 증대했다. 9) 생견의 건조온도가 높아지면 견층의 팽윤, 용해도는 반대로 감소했다. 10) 견층의 두께가 크게 되면 일정시간에 있어서의 팽윤, 용해성은 저하하였다. 11) 견층부위별 팽윤, 용해성은 외>중>내층의 순이고 품종에 따라서는 견층부위별로 차이가 있었다. 12) 견층의 납물질제거처리를 하게 되면 sericin의 팽윤, 용해성은 대조구에 비해 감소하였다. 13) 음 ion 활성제는(pH 6.0 부근) sericin의 팽윤, 용해도를 촉진시켰다. 14) 양 ion 활성제는 위와 같은 조건에서 sericin 의 흡착현상을 나타내었다. 15) 경도성분(Ca, Mg)의 농도가 증가하면, 용수의 pH는 발성방향으로 이동하였다. 16) 용수중의 경도성분과 sericin과는 서로 완충작용을 나타내었다. 17) Ca와 Mg의 경도성분이 sericin의 팽윤, 용해에 미치는 영향을 비교하면 Ca 성분이 팽윤, 용해를 억제하였 다. 18) 용수중의 경도성분의 용존은 전기전도도를 증가시켰다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart.

The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser.

The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

Fuzzy logic based Control Theory has gained much interest in the industrial world, thanks to its ability to formalize and solve in a very natural way many problems that are very difficult to quantify at an analytical level. This paper shows a solution for treating membership function inside hardware circuits. The proposed hardware structure optimizes the memoried size by using particular form of the vectorial representation. The process of memorizing fuzzy sets, i.e. their membership function, has always been one of the more problematic issues for the hardware implementation, due to the quite large memory space that is needed. To simplify such an implementation, it is commonly [1,2,8,9,10,11] used to limit the membership functions either to those having triangular or trapezoidal shape, or pre-definite shape. These kinds of functions are able to cover a large spectrum of applications with a limited usage of memory, since they can be memorized by specifying very few parameters ( ight, base, critical points, etc.). This however results in a loss of computational power due to computation on the medium points. A solution to this problem is obtained by discretizing the universe of discourse U, i.e. by fixing a finite number of points and memorizing the value of the membership functions on such points [3,10,14,15]. Such a solution provides a satisfying computational speed, a very high precision of definitions and gives the users the opportunity to choose membership functions of any shape. However, a significant memory waste can as well be registered. It is indeed possible that for each of the given fuzzy sets many elements of the universe of discourse have a membership value equal to zero. It has also been noticed that almost in all cases common points among fuzzy sets, i.e. points with non null membership values are very few. More specifically, in many applications, for each element u of U, there exists at most three fuzzy sets for which the membership value is ot null [3,5,6,7,12,13]. Our proposal is based on such hypotheses. Moreover, we use a technique that even though it does not restrict the shapes of membership functions, it reduces strongly the computational time for the membership values and optimizes the function memorization. In figure 1 it is represented a term set whose characteristics are common for fuzzy controllers and to which we will refer in the following. The above term set has a universe of discourse with 128 elements (so to have a good resolution), 8 fuzzy sets that describe the term set, 32 levels of discretization for the membership values. Clearly, the number of bits necessary for the given specifications are 5 for 32 truth levels, 3 for 8 membership functions and 7 for 128 levels of resolution. The memory depth is given by the dimension of the universe of the discourse (128 in our case) and it will be represented by the memory rows. The length of a world of memory is defined by: Length = nem (dm(m)＋dm(fm) Where: fm is the maximum number of non null values in every element of the universe of the discourse, dm(m) is the dimension of the values of the membership function m, dm(fm) is the dimension of the word to represent the index of the highest membership function. In our case then Length=24. The memory dimension is therefore 128*24 bits. If we had chosen to memorize all values of the membership functions we would have needed to memorize on each memory row the membership value of each element. Fuzzy sets word dimension is 8*5 bits. Therefore, the dimension of the memory would have been 128*40 bits. Coherently with our hypothesis, in fig. 1 each element of universe of the discourse has a non null membership value on at most three fuzzy sets. Focusing on the elements 32,64,96 of the universe of discourse, they will be memorized as follows: The computation of the rule weights is done by comparing those bits that represent the index of the membership function, with the word of the program memor . The output bus of the Program Memory (μCOD), is given as input a comparator (Combinatory Net). If the index is equal to the bus value then one of the non null weight derives from the rule and it is produced as output, otherwise the output is zero (fig. 2). It is clear, that the memory dimension of the antecedent is in this way reduced since only non null values are memorized. Moreover, the time performance of the system is equivalent to the performance of a system using vectorial memorization of all weights. The dimensioning of the word is influenced by some parameters of the input variable. The most important parameter is the maximum number membership functions (nfm) having a non null value in each element of the universe of discourse. From our study in the field of fuzzy system, we see that typically nfm 3 and there are at most 16 membership function. At any rate, such a value can be increased up to the physical dimensional limit of the antecedent memory. A less important role n the optimization process of the word dimension is played by the number of membership functions defined for each linguistic term. The table below shows the request word dimension as a function of such parameters and compares our proposed method with the method of vectorial memorization[10]. Summing up, the characteristics of our method are: Users are not restricted to membership functions with specific shapes. The number of the fuzzy sets and the resolution of the vertical axis have a very small influence in increasing memory space. Weight computations are done by combinatorial network and therefore the time performance of the system is equivalent to the one of the vectorial method. The number of non null membership values on any element of the universe of discourse is limited. Such a constraint is usually non very restrictive since many controllers obtain a good precision with only three non null weights. The method here briefly described has been adopted by our group in the design of an optimized version of the coprocessor described in [10].

수도 단간품종 육성을 위한 자료를 얻고자 Japonica 단간인 단간백망, Indica 단간인 T(N)1 그리고 Japonica$\times$Indica의 단간고정계통인 IE51의 3개품종을 단간친으로 하고 우리나라 품종인 진흥, 관옥, 및 팔굉을 모본으로 하는 관옥$\times$단간백망, 팔굉$\times$단간백망, 진흥$\times$T(N)1, 관옥$\times$T(N)1 및 관옥$\times$IE51의 5개조합의 $\textrm{F}_2$를 재배시기, 질소시용수준, 재식밀도 및 재배지를 달리한 여러 가지 환경조건하에 공시하여 간장 및 이에 관련된 형질의 유전양상과 생태적 변이를 추구하는 한편 관옥$\times$T(N)1, 진흥$\times$T(N)1 및 관옥$\times$IE51의 3개조합에 대하여는 전 공시개체수의 10%의 단간개체를 선발하여 $\textrm{F}_2$에서의 간장에 대한 선발효과를 검정하였다. 이를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 유전분리 가. Japonica 단간인 단간백망은 관옥 또는 팔굉과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$에서 장간 : 단간이 3:1의 분리비를 나타내었다. 따라서 단간백망의 간장은 단순열성유전인자에 비하여 지배되었음을 알 수 있었다. 나. 상기 두 조합의 $\textrm{F}_2$의 수장분리에 있어서도 장수 : 단수의 분리비는 3:1로 나타났으므로 간장지배인자가 수장 표현에도 크게 관여하는 것으로 판단되었다. 다. 초장의 경우에 있어서도 간장의 분리양상과 대동소이하였다. 라. Indica의 Semi-dwarf인 T(N)1은 진흥 또는 관옥과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$에서 3:1의 단순한 간장분리를 하지 않고 연속적인 정규분포양상을 나타내는 것으로 보아 상대품종들은 T(N)1의 단간인자의 대립유전자를 가지고 있지 않는 것으로 추정된다. 특히 진흥과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$의 간장분리에서는 장간방향으로 초월분리현상을 나타내었다. 수장과 초장의 분리양상은 역시 간장의 경우와 유사하였다. 마. IE51은 관옥과 교잡하였을 때 간장, 수장 및 초장의 $\textrm{F}_2$분리양상이 T(N)1의 그것과 동일하였으므로 IE51의 단간인자는 곧 T(N)1으로부터 도입된 것임을 알 수 있었다. 2. 생태적 변이 가. 일반적으로 재배시기가 늦어짐에 따라 간장 및 초장의 감소를 보였으나 수장의 변이는 비교적 적었으며 그 감소정도는 품종 또는 조합에 따라 다소 달랐다. 그러나 이들 형질의 유전분리양상은 재배시기의 영향을 거의 받지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 나. 제 3절간까지의 절간장은 대체로 간장의 분리양상과 비슷하였다. 따라서 간장의 표현은 제 3절간장까지의 역할이 비교적 중요하다고 생각된다. 다. 질소시용량의 차이가 간장 및 관련형질에 미치는 영향은 비교적 적었다. 물론 질소증시에 따라 이들 형질이 증대되는 경향은 있었으나 품종 또는 그 조합특성에 따라 그 정도가 달랐다. 라. 재식밀도를 달리할 경우 간장 및 관련형질에 미치는 영향은 적은 편 이었으며 품종과 조합에 따라 그 변이정도가 달랐다. 그러나 밀식구에서 이들 형질이 다소 증대되는 경향은 인정할 수 있었다. 마. 교배친품종들의 간장, 수장 및 초장은 저위도지방에서 재배할수록 짧아졌는데 이는 감온성반응때문인 것으로 추측되었으며 $\textrm{F}_2$ 잡종에서는 어느 조합이든 남부인 밀양에서 가장 길었는데 이는 분리된 만생화개체의 고온에 의한 생육조장에 영향한 것으로 추측되었다. 3. 선발효과 가. 간장의 유전력은 관옥$\times$T(N)1에서 92%, 진흥$\times$T(N)1에서 55% 그리고 관옥$\times$IE51에서 74%로서 조합에 따라 다르나 상당히 높은 편이었다. 나. $\textrm{F}_2$전공시개체중에서 단간쪽의 10% 개체를 선발하여 G$_3$시험에서 얻은 실제적인 간장단축량은 관옥$\times$T(N)1조합에서 20.8cm, 관옥$\times$IE51조합에서 8.7cm 그리고 진흥$\times$T(N)1조합에서 20.0cm로서 기대치에 비교적 가까운 선발효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 다. 간장의 선발이 수장에 미치는 영향은 조합에 따라 상이하였으나 관옥$\times$T(N)1조합에서는 $\textrm{F}_2$모집단에 비하여 수장의 단축을 거의 인정할 수 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 간장, 수장 및 초장의 생태적 변이는 비교적적은 편으로 유전적 분리 범위내에 국한되었으며 단간백망의 간장 표현에 관여하는 단순열성인자는 단수 및 소립등의 불량형질을 동반하므로서 실용가치가 없는 반면에 T(N)1의 단간인자는 이러한 불량형질과 연쇄되지 않는 장점을 가졌으므로 단간모본으로서의 활용도가 높은 것으로 인정되었다.
