Let (X,S,$\mu$) be a measure space and M be the vector space of all real valued S-measurable functions defined on (X,S,$\mu$). For $E\;{\in}\;S$ with $\mu(E)\;<\;{\infty}$, $d_E$ is a pseudometric on M. With the notion of D = {$d_E$\mid$E\;{\in}\;S,\mu(E)\;<\;{\infty}$}, in this paper we investigate some topological structure T of M. Indeed, we shall show that it is possible to define a complete invariant metric on M which is compatible with the topology T on M.

In this paper, a high-efficiency power amplifier is implemented by using a drain bias control circuit operated at low input power for WPT(Wireless Power Transfer). Adaptive bias control circuit was added to high-efficiency class-E amplifier. It was possible to obtain the overall improvement in efficiency by adjusting the drain bias at low input power. The proposed adaptive class-E amplifier is implemented by using the input and output matching network and serial resonant circuit for improvement in efficiency. Drain bias control circuit consists of a directional coupler, power detector, and operational amplifier for adjusting the drain bias according to the input power. The measured results show that output powers of 41.83 dBm were obtained at 13.56 MHz. At this frequency, we have obtained the power added efficiency(PAE) of 85.67 %. It was confirmed increase of PAE of an average of 8 % than the fixed bias from the low input power level of 0 dBm ~ 6 dBm.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections and is predominantly caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). UPEC strains generally possess several genes encoding virulent factors, which are mostly adhesins, toxins, bacteriocin and siderophores. E. coli is composed of four main phylogenetic group (A, B1, B2, D) and virulent extra-intestinal strains mainly belong to groups B2 and D. Prescription of ciprofloxacin, a kind of fluoroquinolone group antibiotics, is increasing now a days, but resistance to this drug is also increasing. A total of 188 strains of E. coli were collected. Thirteen strains were collected from healthy students in 2011 and 175 strains from patients with urinary tract infection in 2010. Virulence factor genes (papC, fimG/H, sfaD/E, hlyA, cnf1, and usp) were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods for phylogenetic group (A, B1, B2, D) detection. Ciprofloxacin susceptibility test was performed by disk diffusion method. The identified virulence factors (VFs), phylogenetic groups and ciprofloxacin resistance in 13 E. coli strains isolated from healthy students were papC (15.4%), fimG/H (76.9%), sfaD/E (30.8%), hlyA (23.1%), cnf1 (23.1%), usp (7.7%), phylogenetic group A (23%), B1 (8%), B2 (46%), D (23%) and ciprofloxacin resistance (7.7%), while those of in 175 E. coli strains isolated from patients with UTI were papC (41.1%), fimG/H (92.5%), sfaD/E (30.3%), hlyA (10.3%), cnf1 (30.3%), usp (27.4%), phylogenetic group A (9.1%), B1 (5.1%), B2 (60.6%), D (25.1%) and ciprofloxacin resistance (29.7%). In this study, 10 out of 13 E. coli strains (76.9%) from healthy students were found to possess more than one virulence factor associated with adhesion. In addition, one E. coli strain isolated from healthy students who had never been infected with UPEC showed ciprofloxacin resistance. According to these results between the virulence factors and phylogenetic groups it was closely associated, and UPEC strains isolated from patients showed high level of ciprofloxacin resistance.

This study analyzed the effect of small and medium businesses' R&D intensity and patents on their price-earnings (P/E) ratios. Regression analysis was conducted on a sample of manufacturers listed on the Korean Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (KOSDAQ) for the past decade (2000~2009). The result is summarized as follows. First, a negative correlation was identified between companies' R&D intensity and their P/E ratios, but no significant relationship was found between their numbers of domestic patent applications and registrations and P/E ratios. Second, the analysis of the effect of the companies' R&D intensity on their P/E ratios resulted in a negative correlation of -1%. Third, the analysis of the effect of the companies' number of domestic patent applications and registrations on their P/E ratios showed that they did not have any significant relationship. Fourth, high-tech firms' R&D intensity had a negative correlation of -1% with their P/E ratios, but had a positive correlation of 1% with their numbers of domestic patent applications. Furthermore, the R&D intensity of middle-to-high and middle-to-low tech enterprises had a negative correlation of -1% with their P/E ratios, whereas their numbers of domestic patent applications and registrations had no significant relationship with their P/E ratios. The above results suggest that to produce successful outcomes from their R&D investment and patents, individual firms need strategies for technological innovation that relate to their technological level.

In this paper, we present E-band bond-wire modeling and a matching network to compensate for the effect of the bond-wire. The impedance of the bond-wires is extracted using three-dimensional electromagnetic simulation. The matching network was designed using a simple structure. The implemented matching network was verified with a commercial 71~81 GHz LNA IC and an interconnection based on the WR-12 waveguide. The matching network increases the transmission coefficient of the system by up to 4.5 dB, power gain by up to 3.12 dB, $P_{1dB}$ by up to 2.2 dB, and improves the gain flatness by ${\pm}1.07dB$.

Objective: This paper describes the process and results related to the development of gesture recognition-based natural user interface(NUI) for vehicle maintenance e-Training system. Background: E-Training refers to education training that acquires and improves the necessary capabilities to perform tasks by using information and communication technology(simulation, 3D virtual reality, and augmented reality), device(PC, tablet, smartphone, and HMD), and environment(wired/wireless internet and cloud computing). Method: Palm movement from depth camera is used as a pointing device, where finger movement is extracted by using OpenCV library as a selection protocol. Results: The proposed NUI allows trainees to control objects, such as cars and engines, on a large screen through gesture recognition. In addition, it includes the learning environment to understand the procedure of either assemble or disassemble certain parts. Conclusion: Future works are related to the implementation of gesture recognition technology for a multiple number of trainees. Application: The results of this interface can be applied not only in e-Training system, but also in other systems, such as digital signage, tangible game, controlling 3D contents, etc.

This study was attempted to enhance nutritional value of cooked rice by adding milk in cooking water. Cooked and soaked rice with five different levels of milk in cooking water (0%, A: 30%, B: 50%, C: 70%, D: 100%, E) was tested for rheological parameters, fine structural changes, sensory evaluation. 1. Water absorbance of raw rice in cooking water with varying amountes of milk, was tested at $5^{\circ}C$ and $15^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Water absorption ratio was decreased as milk content was increased and soaking temperature was low. Time for maximum water absorption of sample A was 40 min at 1$15^{\circ}C$ but for sample B to D, it was not reached until 120 min. 2. Electronmicroscopic observation revealed that starch granules of rice lost their regular forms by soaking for 90 minutes, but recovered most of initial regularity after 24 hours. Increase in milk content of soaking water decreased marginal sharpness of the starch granule, presumably due to reduced swelling of the granule. 3. Degree of gelatinization of cooked rice was highest in sample A and progressively decreased as milk content was increased. It was, however, increased in all samples when the cooking water to rice ratio was raised from 160% to 180%. During 4 hour storage, rates of retrogradation were not different between A and B samples, but those of C, D and E were about 2.5 times higher than A and B under the optimal condition of 170% cooking water to rice ratio. This was in the order reverse to hardness order of AC>A, D＞E at cooking water to rice ratios of 160% and 170%, above which A sample surpassed the rest of samples. 4. Sensory evaluation conducted by fifteen university students as panelists showed that there were more significant differences among five samples in flavour, texture than appearance and a notable preference for b and C over A, D and E.

Saam Park Sun(1523-1589) holds a very important position in history of 16th century $d{\grave{a}}oxu{\acute{e}}$ politics. Starting from King Seonjo's accession in 1567, he took a lead in changing the former Politics by Hoonchuck(勳戚政治) to $d{\grave{a}}oxu{\acute{e}}$ politics. He served a prime minister alone for 14 years. Following philosophy of $d{\grave{a}}oxu{\acute{e}}$ politics that Jo Gwang-jo(趙光祖, 1482-1519) had advocated a generation earlier, he sought reformative politics by rising elites. He pursued ideal politics of $d{\grave{a}}oxu{\acute{e}}$ in which principles and public opinion agreed with each other and to realize it, he was in the forefront of correcting 'shìdào(世道)' and improving 'qīngyì(淸議).' It is why $d{\grave{a}}oxu{\acute{e}}$ politics is called shìdào politics(世道政治). He emphasized 'old manners(古禮)' as standard to criticize wrong reality and to realize ideals. The 'old' in his mind was ideals, principles and traditions. The most meaningful reform was to go back to spirit of 'old.' It is why he put stress on and stuck to practice of 'old manners' in national liturgy.
