Several plant-derived cannabinoids and endogenous ligands for cannabinoid receptors such as 2-arachidonyl-glycerol have been known to inhibit interleukin-2 (IL-2) expression. In the present study, we utilized arachidonylethanolamide (AEA), a putative endogenous ligand for cannabinoid receptors, to determine whether AEA modulated the expression of IL-2. AEA inhibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) plus ionomycin (Io)-induced IL-2 protein secretion and mRNA expression in EL-4 mouse T-cells as determined by ELISA and RT-PCR, respectively. To further characterize the inhibitory mechanism of AEA at the transcriptional level, we performed promoter study for IL-2 gene in PMA/Io-stimulated EL-4 cells. AEA decreased the transcriptional activity of the nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NF-AT) as well as the IL-2 promoter activity. These results suggest that AEA suppresses IL-2 expression and that the inhibition is mediated, at least in part, through the down-regulation of NF-AT.

Motivating by two promising technique of 5G, namely D2D and Edge computing, and the above mentioned problem of the current joint studies, We believe that more study is needed on the benefits of joining these two techniques in a single framework by more precisely taking into account the energy needed to computation, sending data, receiving data and as a result achieving more realistic energy efficiency in 5G cellular networks.

인적 및 물적 피해를 크게 초래하는 건설현장의 안전사고를 효과적으로 방지할 수 있는 시스템이 절실히 필요하다. 건설현장의 안전관리 시스템은 주로 대규모 건설현장 위주로 시범 운용되고 있으나, 중소규모의 현장에서 저비용으로 운용할 수 있는 안전관리 시스템은 많이 부족한 실정이다. 건설현장의 안전사고는 예상되는 위험 지역에 허가받지 않은 작업자가 접근하지 못하도록 사전 조치를 하면 효과적으로 방지할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 소규모 건설현장에서 저비용으로 운용할 수 있는 사물인터넷 기반의 위험구역 경보 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 시스템은 지그비 기반의 비콘기술과 셀룰러 이동통신 기술 등을 활용하여 건설현장에서 추가적인 네트워크의 구축이 없이 허가된 작업자 또는 외부인이 위험구역에 접근시에 감지하고, 안전 관리자에게 위험 경보를 즉시 통보하여 적절한 안전조치를 취할 수 있다.

IoT 산업이 확대되면서 기기들의 위치정보를 측정하고 활용하는 다양한 응용서비스들이 많이 출시되고 있다. 이러한 위치정보를 전송하기 위해 Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee 등 여러 무선통신 기술들이 사용된다. 하지만 이 기술들은 제한된 커버리지를 가지고 있으며, 비교적 넓은 커버리지를 갖는 셀룰라 망은 이용비용을 지불해야하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 저전력 장거리 무선 통신 기술인 LoRa(Long Range)를 이용하여 자체적인 위치정보시스템을 구현하였다. 이 구현 시스템은 LoRa 기술을 활용하기 때문에 다른 무선통신 기술보다 비교적 넓은 커버리지를 가질 뿐만아니라 이용비용이 발생하지 않는다. 또한 위치정보시스템은 CoAP와 6LoWPAN을 사용하여 IPv6 형태로 패킷을 전송하기 때문에 기존 인터넷 환경에서 다수의 기기들과 연동이 가능하다.

The application of Internet of Things (IoT) in the next generation cellular networks imposes a new characteristic on the data traffic, where a massive number of small packets need to be transmitted. In addition, some emerging IoT-based emergency services require a real-time data delivery within a few milliseconds, referring to as ultra-low latency transmission. However, current techniques cannot provide such a low latency in combination with a mice-flow traffic. In this paper, we propose a dynamic resource reservation schema based on an air-interface slicing scheme in the context of a massive number of sensors with emergency flows. The proposed schema can achieve an air-interface latency of a few milliseconds by means of allowing emergency flows to be transported through a dedicated radio connection with guaranteed network resources. In order to schedule the delay-sensitive flows immediately, dynamic resource updating, silence-probability based collision avoidance, and window-based re-transmission are introduced to combine with the frame-slotted Aloha protocol. To evaluate performance of the proposed schema, a probabilistic model is provided to derive the analytical results, which are compared with the numerical results from Monte-Carlo simulations.

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has received increasing attention and been studied extensively thanks to its advantages in improving spectral efficiency and energy efficiency of cellular networks. This paper proposes a novel relay selection algorithm for multi-hop full-duplex D2D communications underlaying cellular networks. By selecting the relay of each hop in a reverse manner, the proposed algorithm reduces the heavy signaling overhead that traditional relay selection algorithms introduce. In addition, the social domain information of mobile terminals is taken into consideration and its influence on the performance of D2D communications studied, which is found significant enough not to be overlooked. Moreover, simulations show that the proposed algorithm, in absence of social relationship information, improves data throughput by around 70% and 7% and energy efficiency by 64% and 6%, compared with two benchmark algorithms, when D2D distance is 260 meters. In a more practical implementation considering social relationship information, although the proposed algorithm naturally achieves less throughput, it substantially increases the energy efficiency than the benchmarks.

LTE 시스템에서 단말이 기지국에 데이터를 전송하기 위해서는 기지국이 physical downlink control channel (PDCCH)을 통해 역방향 자원 할당 제어 정보를 방송해야 한다. PDCCH 메시지의 크기 및 전송 횟수는 셀 내 단말의 수에 비례하여 증가하기 때문에 narrowband LTE (NB-LTE) 시스템의 경우 다수의 단말에 의해 발생하는 PDCCH의 오버헤드 증가 문제가 네트워크에 심각한 혼잡을 발생시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 PDCCH의 오버헤드 감소를 위해, 제안하는 간소화 된 PDCCH 정보 비트 구성 방법을 사용하여 PDCCH 메시지의 크기를 줄인다. 또한, PDCCH 메시지의 전송 횟수를 감소시키는 semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) 기법을 NB-LTE 시스템에 적용하여 성능을 평가한다. 모의실험을 통해 SPS의 경우 PDCCH의 오버헤드가 감소하였으며, 시스템의 사용 효율이 높아짐을 보였다.

IOT has carried out important function in converting the traditional fitness care corporation. With developing call for in population, traditional healthcare structures have reached their outmost functionality in presenting sufficient and as plenty as mark offerings. The worldwide is handling devastating developing antique population disaster and the right want for assisted-dwelling environments is turning into inevitable for senior citizens. There furthermore a determination by means of the use of way of countrywide healthcare organizations to increase crucial manual for individualized, right blanketed care to prevent and manipulate excessive coronial situations. Many tech orientated packages related to Health Monitoring have been delivered these days as taking advantage of net boom everywhere on globe, manner to improvements in cellular and in IOT generation. Such as optimized indoor networks insurance, community shape, and fairly-low device fee performances, advanced tool reliability, low device energy consumption, and hundreds higher unusual common usual performance in network safety and privacy. Studies have highlighted fantastic advantages of integrating IOT with health care location and as era is improving the rate also cannot be that terrific of a problem. However, many challenges in this new paradigm shift notwithstanding the fact that exist, that need to be addressed. So the out most purpose of this research paper is 3 essential departments: First, evaluation of key elements that drove the adoption and boom of the Internet of factors based totally domestic some distance off monitoring; Second, present fashionable improvement of IOT in home a long manner off monitoring shape and key building gadgets; Third, communicate future very last effects and distinct guidelines of such type a long way off monitoring packages going ahead. Such Research is a wonderful manner in advance now not outstanding in IOT Terminology but in standard fitness care location.
