  • Fault simulation of logic circuits is an important part of the test-generation process. It is used for the propose of generation fault dictionaries or for the verification of the adequacy of tests. In this paper, a backtrace fault simulation is proposed to test generation. This is consists of 3 part ; initialization phase for given circuit, backtrace fault simulation phase to find fault list and reevaluation phase to list event. The main idea of this algorithm is to retain a minimum fault list by cutting uncontrollable lines of path when a logic event occurs in backward tracing phases. And the simulator is revaluates a fault list associated with the output of an element only if logic event occurs at any of its inputs when a list event occurs at one of its primary inputs. It reguires a O(n) memory space complexity. where n is a number of signal lines for the given circuits. Several examples are given to illustrate the power of this algorithm.

  • Software requirements are continuously changed for various reasons, consequently changes of software are inevitable. In the case of changes necessitated by changes in requirements, it is necessary to precisely predict the ripple effects of the changes for efficient management of the changes. This paper proposes the management method of traceability information, which can be applied in object-oriented development. Furthermore, we introduce the guidelines for prediction of the ripple effects of changes based on traceability information among artifacts composing a system. We identify traceability items for the essential artifacts which were composed of the object-oriented system, and define relationships among them. The purpose of the method proposed in this paper is to identify the scope of change precisely through the guidelines. These can then be used for tracing and analyzing the impact of the changes both the forward and backward looking, based on the relationships of traceability items.

  • The EPC-Discovery Service (EPC-DS) is a good representative of the RFID Track & Trace. But this mechanism has several problems. EPC-DS uses centralized server scheme which may arise bottle-neck state and that cannot provide detail trace information of a RFID object. In addition, a trace node requires direct access method to a RFID object or an element which has information of the RFID object for Track & Trace. In this paper, we propose a novel RFID Track & Trace mechanism which based on the SIP presence model and SIP event notification. This mechanism can provide detail trace information and monitoring function, and also can rid the bottle-neck section by combination of SIP methods instead of centralized element.

Study on the Multilevel Effects of Integrated Crisis Intervention Model for the Prevention of Elderly Suicide: Focusing on Suicidal Ideation and Depression (노인자살예방을 위한 통합적 위기개입모델 다층효과 연구: 자살생각·우울을 중심으로)

  • This study is designed to verify the actual effect on the prevention of the elderly suicide of the integrated crisis intervention service which has been widely provided across all local communities in Gyeonggi-province focusing on the integrated crisis intervention model developed for the prevention of elderly suicide. The integrated crisis intervention model for the local communities and its manual were developed for the prevention of elderly suicide by integrating the crisis intervention theory which contains local community's integrated system approach and the stress vulnerability theory. For the analysis of the effect, the geriatric depression and suicidal ideation scale was adopted and the data was collected as follows; The data was collected from 258 people in the first preliminary test. Then, it was collected from the secondary test of 184 people after the integrated crisis intervention service was performed for 6 months. The third collection of data was made from 124 people after 2 or 3 years later using the backward tracing method. As for the analysis, the researcher used the R Statistics computing to conduct the test equating, and the vertical scaling between measuring points. Then, the researcher conducted descriptive statistics analysis and univariate analysis of variance, and performed multi-level modeling analysis using Bayesian estimation. As a result of the study, it was found out that the integrated crisis intervention model which has been developed for the elderly suicide prevention has a statistically significant effect on the reduction of elderly suicide in terms of elderly depression and suicide ideation in the follow-up measurement after the implementation of crisis intervention rather than in the first preliminary scores. The integrated crisis intervention model for the prevention of elderly suicide was found to be effective to the extent of 0.56 for the reduction of depression and 0.39 for the reduction of suicidal ideation. However, it was found out in the backward tracing test conducted 2-3 years after the first crisis intervention that the improved values returned to its original state, thus showing that the effect of the intervention is not maintained for long. Multilevel analysis was conducted to find out the factors such as the service type(professional counseling, medication, peer counseling), characteristics of the client (sex, age), the characteristics of the counselor(age, career, major) and the interaction between the characteristics of the counselor and intervention which affect depression and suicidal ideation. It was found that only medication can significantly reduce suicidal ideation and that if the counselor's major is counseling, it significantly further reduces suicidal ideation by interacting with professional counseling. Furthermore, as the characteristics of the suicide prevention experts are found to regulate the intervention effect on elderly suicide prevention in applying integrated crisis intervention model, the primary consideration should be given to the counseling ability of these experts.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the skeletal, dental and soft tissue profile changes following the face mask therapy in growing skeletal class III malocclusion patients. The fifteen patients with the good results were selected among the patients who visited the Department of Orthodontics in Seoul National University Hospital. The mean age was 10.63(range 7.25-13.25) years and the mean treatment duration was 9.84(range 2.00-27.00) months. Lateral cephalograms were taken just before and after face mask application. After tracing the cephalograms, thirty five items(twety angular and fifteen linear) were measured. The differences before and after the face mask therapy were compared statistically by the paired t-test(p<0.05). The results were as follows : SNA and Co-A(effective maxillary length) increased significantly after using the face mask(p<0.001), which reflects the orthopedic changes of maxilla. SNB and Co-Gn(effective mandibular length) also showed an increase(p<0.01), which may be a result of the strong growth trends of the samples. FMA, SN-GoGn and Y-axis angle increased significantly(p<0.01), which means the backward and downward rotation of the mandible. This positional change seemed to have compensated an increase of effective mandibular length. There was no statistically significant difference in angulation of upper and lower incisors between pre-treatment and post-treatment(p>0.05). In soft tissue profile, the upper lip was positioned anteriorly(p<0.01) after treatment and approximated to the normal standards.
