This paper propose WebDBs(Web Database system) which retrieves information registered in web using query language similar to SQL. This proposed system automatically extracts information which is needed to retrieve from HTML documents dispersed in web. Also, it has an ability to process SQL based query intended for the extracted information. Web database system takes the most of query processing time for capturing documents going through network line. And so, the information previously retrieved is reused in similar applications after stored in cache in perceiving that most of the web retrieval depends on web locality. In this case, we propose cache mechanism adapted to user applications by storing cached information associated with retrieved query. And, Web search engine is implemented based on these concepts.

Particle depolarization ratios (DPRs) at 440, 675, 870 and 1020 nm are retrieved from AERONET sun/sky radiometer observations at Gosan and Kongju in South Korea. The retrieved results show good agreement with DPRs measured by lidar at 532 nm. High DPRs are found when Asian dust passes through at the upper atmosphere over 2 km above the Earth's surface. In case of lower atmosphere less than 2 km from the ground, DPRs are relatively low due to the small amount of dust particles and mixing of dust with air pollutants.

Guide wire fracture during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is rare. It can cause fatal complications such as thrombus formation, embolization, and perforation. Guide wire fracture could occur during intervention for severely calcified stenotic lesions, and rarely from distal small branches of stenotic lesions. There are several methods for its management depending on the material character, position, length of the remnant, and the patient's condition. If percutaneous retrieval was not achieved, the surgical procedure should be considered for prevention of potential risks, although the remnant guide wire does not usually cause complications. We experienced a patient with a guide wire fracture during PCI, and managed to prevent its complications through surgical removal of the remnant wire. We report this case here.

In recent years, the skyline query paradigm has been established as a reliable method for database query personalization. While early efficiency problems have been solved by sophisticated algorithms and advanced indexing, new challenges in skyline retrieval effectiveness continuously arise. In particular, the rise of the Semantic Web and linked open data leads to personalization issues where skyline queries cannot be applied easily. We addressed the special challenges presented by linked open data in previous work; and now further extend this work, with a heuristic workflow to boost efficiency. This is necessary; because the new view on linked open data dominance has serious implications for the efficiency of the actual skyline computation, since transitivity of the dominance relationships is no longer granted. Therefore, our contributions in this paper can be summarized as: we present an intuitive skyline query paradigm to deal with linked open data; we provide an effective dominance definition, and establish its theoretical properties; we develop innovative skyline algorithms to deal with the resulting challenges; and we design efficient heuristics for the case of predicate equivalences that may often happen in linked open data. We extensively evaluate our new algorithms with respect to performance, and the enriched skyline semantics.

It is difficult to get relevant information on vast Web data. Search engines summarize and store Web information and show the ranked lists based on user queries affected by relative importance and user-adaptation. But these have limitation with showing user-intended information at the top priority. User intention is presented in general within query itself. In this paper, we propose the selective rankup methodology of user-intended search results based on weighting internal contiguity in query terms. With experimental results, we can find user-intended results with 75.8% probability using this simple method only, and efficiency of rerank proposed outperforms ordinary case by $13{\sim}20%$.

Aerosol direct radiative forcing (ADRF) retrieval method was developed by combining data from passive and active satellite sensors. Aerosol optical thickness (AOT) retrieved form the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) as a passive visible sensor and aerosol vertical profile from to the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) as an active laser sensor were investigated an application possibility. Especially, space-born Light Detection and Ranging (Lidar) observation provides a specific knowledge of the optical properties of atmospheric aerosols with spatial, temporal, vertical, and spectral resolutions. On the basis of extensive radiative transfer modeling, it is demonstrated that the use of the aerosol vertical profiles is sensitive to the estimation of ADRF. Throughout the investigation of relationship between aerosol height and ADRF, mean change rates of ADRF per increasing of 1 km aerosol height are smaller at surface than top-of-atmosphere (TOA). As a case study, satellite data for the Asian dust day of March 31, 2007 were used to estimate ADRF. Resulting ADRF values were compared with those retrieved independently from MODIS only data. The absolute difference values are 1.27% at surface level and 4.73% at top of atmosphere (TOA).

This paper discussed which of the three basic entries of serials that changed their titles-earliest, latest, or successive entry cataloging-is the most efficient, informative, and economical in a manual and an online environment. The results of the study are as follow: 1. Earliest entry cataloging or as an alternative, successive entry cataloging advocated by Cutter in 1976 was replaced in ALA Cataloging Rules by latest entry cataloging and with AACR1 and AACR2, latest entry cataloging was replaced by successive entry cataloging again. 2. Entry method of serial cataloging should be determined in consideration of goals of catalog, efficiency of catalog retrieval, theoretical and practical standpoint of entry methods, average cataloging time and cost, the state of adaption. 3. In a card catalog environment, if the numbering and class number of the serial that title proper changed into initials itself continue and the title history must not be too complicated, the serial is desirable to entry under the latest title. Except for above case, successive entry cataloging enables serials to be more quickly and economically made available to users than with either earliest or latest entry cataloging. 4. In an automated catalog environment, successive entry cataloging has more potential of satisfying and impairs the efficiency of both accessing and processing a library's serials collection. However, when initial cataloging by MARC format is done, careful screen design and complex programming will be needed. And subfield containing the local record number should be added to the programming means to link the various records together, i.e., 780 (preceding title) and 785 (succeeding title) fields for all related titles.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the schemes to enhance information service functions by the utilization of CD-ROM in medical school libraries. The results of the study are summarized as follows : 1. The selection and evaluation of CD-ROM database are necessary steps in the planning of a CD-ROM. Before the CD-ROM is selected, therefore, medical libraries must make a practical evaluation criteria in important order of information services environment, characteristics of hardware/software, service requirements, price and cost, etc. 2. If possible, CD-ROM MEDLINE must be suited for the information services environment. 3. In case of the popular core journals, full-text CD-ROM should be gradually purchased. 4. In order to reduce the time required from search of bibliographic informations to receipt of original articles, CD-NET system and library holding administration program must be built up and developed. And channel of information search and order/receipt of original article should be varied. 5. Search education program for medical librarians and users should be enforced, and librarians must play an important role in CD-ROM retrieval consultant and intermediator.

It is very important that sellers provide reasonable reserve prices for auction items in internet auction systems. Recently, an agent has been proposed to generate reserve prices automatically based on the case similarity of information retrieval theory. However, one of its drawbacks is that the recent trend of auction prices is not reflected in the generated reserve prices, because it suggests the bid price of the most similar item from the past auction data. In this paper, in order to overcome the problem, we propose a new method that generates reserve prices based on the moving average of time series analysis, in which more weight is provided to the recent bid prices. Through performance experiments, we show that the successful bid rate can be increased by preventing sellers from making unreasonable reserve prices.

Formation of an aneurysm in the sinus of Valsalva of the aortic root is usually due to an area of congenital weakness in its wall. This aneurysm may progressively dilate and rupture into any of the cardiac chambers or into the pericardial cavity. Though this is conventionally treated by surgery, interventional therapy using various closure devices is becoming more common. Embolization of these closure devices may occur. We report a case of embolization of such a device into the left pulmonary artery which during surgical retrieval, unmasked the hidden ventricular septal defect (VSD). Therefore one has to be cautious while making a diagnosis of rupture of the sinus of Valsalva of right coronary sinus without VSD.
