Phosphorous remains as one of the most limiting nutrients to plant growth, second only to nitrogen. Research on use of biochar as a soil amendment for available phosphorus in temperate calcareous soils has limited studies compared with to tropical acidic soils. An incubation experiment to assess phosphorous availability in a biochar amended calcareous soil under inorganic (Fused superphosphate, FSP) and organic fertilizer (bone meal, BM) and respectively, at the dose of 40, 80 and $120mg\;P\;kg^{-1}$ was carried out. Soil was incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ for 70 days. Results show that the rate of increase in available P was proportional to the fertilizer application rate with or without biochar amendment. Biochar did not have a significant effect on soils amended with either fertilizeron the values of available P. However, time had a significant effect (p<0.001) on the amount of available P during the incubation period. Inorganic fertilizer treatments had recorded high amount of available P with time compared to organic fertilizer treatments. Organic fertilizer treatment sample were significantly not different from control and for most of the incubation time biochar acted as a soil conditioner. Further research is required to understand the holistic and long-term effect of biochar.

다자간 화상회의에서 발생하는 네트워크 혼잡상태에 동적으로 적응하기 위한 연구로는 송신자기반기법과 수신자기반 기법이 있는데, 전자는 수신자들의 평균 손실률에 따른 전송률로 가용 대역폭이 높은 수신자의 대역폭 낭비가 발생하며, 후자는 수신자들의 가용 대역폭에 따른 레이어(layer)를 동적으로 나누는 방법이 부족하다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 수신자의 네트워크 상태에 따라 정상상태와 혼잡상태로 구분하는 두 개의 멀티캐스트 그룹을 형성하고, 수신자가 손실률에 따라 동적으로 그룹을 선택함으로써 대역폭에 적합한 품질의 서비스를 받을 수 있도록 하는 대역폭 관리 알고리즘을 설계한 후 이를 구현하였다. 실험을 통한 결과를 살펴볼 때 수신자는 손실률에 따라 적합한 그룹을 선택함으로써 대역폭 낭비가 발생하는 문제점을 개선할 수 있었다.

Transmission control protocols have to overcome common problems in wireless networks. TCP employing both packet loss discrimination mechanism and available bandwidth estimation algorithm, known as the good existing solution, shows significant performance enhancement in wireless networks. For instance, TCP New Jersey which exhibits high throughput in wireless networks intends to improve TCP performance by using available bandwidth estimation and congestion warning. Even though it achieves 17% and 85% improvements in terms of goodput over TCP Westwood and TCP Reno, respectively, we further improve it by exploring maximized available bandwidth estimation, handling bit-error-rate error recovery, and effective adjustment of sending rate for retransmission timeout. Hence, we propose TCP NJ+, showing that for up to 5% packet loss rate, it outperforms other TCP variants by 19% to 104% in terms of goodput when the network is in bi-directional background traffic.

In this work, the problem of regulating and tracking available bit rate (ABR) traffic in ATM network. The issue of providing control signals to throttled sources at distant location from bottlenecked node is of particular interest. Network modeling and design of controller is outlined. To obtain optimal control, receding horizon control (RHC) theory is applied. Simulation results are presented in views of regulation and tracking problems with or without constraints.

Background: Dose rate meters are the most widely used, and perhaps one of the most important tools for the measurement of ionising radiation. They are often the first, or only, device available to a user for an instant check of radiation dose at a certain location. Throughout the world, radiation safety practices rely strongly on the output of these dose rate meters. But how well do we know the quality of their output? Materials and Methods: This review is based on the measurements 1,158 commercially available dose rate meters of 116 different makes and models. Expected versus the displayed dose patterns and consistency was checked at various dose rates between $5{\mu}Gy{\cdot}h^{-1}$ and $2mGy{\cdot}h^{-1}$. Samples of these meters were then selected for further investigation and were exposed to radiation sources covering photon energies from 50 keV to 1.5 MeV. The effect of detector orientation on its reading was also investigated. Rather than focusing on the angular response distribution that is often reported by the manufacturer of the device, this study focussed on the design ergonomics i.e. the angles that the operator will realistically use to measure a dose rate. Results and Discussion: This review shows the scope and boundaries of the ionising radiation dose rate estimations that are made using commonly available meters. Observations showed both inter and intra make and model variations, occasional cases of instrument failure, instrument walk away, and erroneous response. Conclusion: The results indicate the significance of selecting and maintaining suitable monitors for specific applications in radiation safety.

본 논문은 차세대 통합망 환경에서 IPTV와 같은 영상 스트리밍 서비스를 위해 종단간 가용대역폭 모니터링을 통하여 영상 품질을 제어할 수 있는 영상 품질 제어 시스템(VQCS)을 제안한다. IPTV 서비스를 통해 영상, 음성 및 게임과 같은 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스들을 제공할 수 있으며 이런 서비스들은 대용량의 대역폭을 소비하게 된다. 이때 네트워크 가용대역폭이 부족할 경우 영상 끊김, 형태 왜곡 및 잔상과 같은 영상 품질 저하가 발생하게 된다. 영상 스트리밍 서비스의 품질을 안정적으로 제어하기 위해서는 가용대역폭 모니터링 방안이 요구된다. 이에 우리는 단말 내의 영상 품질 제어 시스템에서 IP 헤더 내의 전체길이(Total Length) 필드를 이용하여 단위시간 동안 링크를 점유하고 있는 패킷 양 계산을 통해 가용 대역폭을 측정하였으며, 가용대역폭 정보를 기반으로 네트워크 내의 스케일러빌리티 추출기는 영상 스트림 데이터율을 적응적으로 선택하여 대역폭 부족으로 인한 영상 스트리밍의 품질 저하를 막아 서비스 품질을 향상시킬 수 있다.

IP 멀티캐스트를 이용한 응용에서는 혼잡지역의 전송률 감소로 인하여 혼잡이 발생하지 않은 지역의 전송률도 낮아져 가용 대역폭 낭비가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 IP 멀티캐스트와 오버레이 멀티캐스트를 이용한 동적 멀티캐스트 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법에서는 오버레이 멀티캐스팅을 위한 지역 대표자를 선택하고, 그룹 전송률이 전송률 임계치 이하일 경우 대표자가 복제한 패킷을 전송할 수 있도록 하였다. 실험 결과 제안 기법이 대역폭을 더 효율적으로 이용함을 알 수 있었다.

This study analyzed the effect of foreign currency exchange rate on the increasing rate of medical care cost by items of fee schedule of Korean Medical Insurance. This study uses the data of cost analysis including cost of imported goods and the data of for a university hospital National Federation's Medical Insurance for a trend of claim. The method of cost analysis is as same as that used in the study of the development of Korean RBRVS(Resource Based Relative Valus Scale). The main findings of this study are as follows; 1. The proportion of imported goods in cost related to Medical Insurance fee schedule is 7.93%, and in case of substitution of available domestic goods 6.96%. 2. If foreign currency exchange rate changes from 800wen per $1 to 1,300won, the affecting rate of Medical Insurance fee schedules is 5.00%. If the imported goods will be substituted with available domestic goods, the rate 4.35%. Our results can be used a data for updating Medical Insurance fee schedule. But this result is limited to be generalized, because this study used the cost analysis for a university hospital.

This study investigates practical application of high early strength type concrete using fine particle classifying cement, and the results are summarized as following. The replacement use of FC 30% did not great influence on concrete mix, therefore mixing without additional SP and AE was available using equal mix with OPC. The ratio of increasing temperature by heat of hydration was similar with OPC, and the compressive strength was over then 5MPa at -28℃ outside temperature on 2nd day. Therefore, it is considering that the first purpose, the effect of shortening terms of work by early demolding, will be available. The rebound rate of type "P" schumidt hammer was relative with compressive strength, and the rebound rate for verifying 5MPa of compressive strength was estimated about 55 considering rate of safety. Therefore, assuming demolding date is available efficiently.
