Recently, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) live streaming assisted by the cloud computing has attracted considerable attention to improve the reliability of the P2P such as the resilience to peer churn and the shortage of upload capacity. The cost of cloud-assistance is comprised of the number of requests issued to the cloud and the amount of data fetched from the cloud. In this paper, we propose three techniques to reduce the cost of such a cloud-assistance.More concretely, in the proposed method, 1) each peer which lost its parent in the overlay can find a new parent by referring to the information registered in the cloud, 2) several peers which proactively fetch chunks from the cloud are dynamically invested, and 3) the number of requests issued to the cloud is reduced by allowing peers to fetch a collection of chunks using a single request. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by simulation. The simulation results indicate that it reduces the cost of conventional scheme by 46% while guaranteeing the quality of live streaming service.

한국에서 양식되어지고 있는 한국산 굴류 4종, 굴(Crassostrea gigas Thunberg), 바위굴(C. nippona Seki), 강굴(C. ariakensis Fujita et Wakiya), 토굴(Ostrea denselamellosa Lischke)의 유전적 근연관계를 조사하고자 미토콘드리아 DNA의 16S rDNA와 cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) 유전자 일부분의 염기서열을 분석하였다. 16S rDNA의 319 bp와 COI유전자의 710 bp를 PCR 증폭하여 염기서열을 결정하였으며, 염기서열과 아미노산서열을 자료로 하여 UPGMA와 neighbor-joining 방법으로 계통수를 작성하고, 종간 유연관계를 확인하였다. Crassostrea 속과 Ostrea 속간 비교에서는 뚜렷한 유전적 분화를 나타내었으며 계통분석 결과, neighbor-joining 방법에 의한 COI의 아미노산 서열분석에서는 굴과 강굴이 자매군을 형성하는 양상을 보였으나 두 유전자의 염기서열과 A+T 비율 비교에서는 굴과 바위굴이 자매군을 형성하는 것으로 나타났다.

The [$^2H_5$]phenylalanine model was compared with the [1-$^{13}C$]leucine method to determine whole body protein synthesis (WBPS) and degradation (WBPD) in sheep fed at two levels. The animals were fed either 103 (M-diet) or 151 (H-diet) kcal $ME/kg^{0.75}/day$ once daily in a crossover design for 21 days each. The isotope dilutions were simultaneously conducted as a primed-continuous infusion of [$^2H_5$]phenylalanine, [$^2H_2$]tyrosine and [1-$^{13}C$]leucine on each dietary treatment. The WBPS and WBPD calculated from the [$^2H_5$]phenylalanine model were lower (p = 0.009 and p = 0.003, respectively) than those calculated from the [1-$^{13}C$]leucine method. The WBPS tended to be higher (p = 0.08) and WBPD was numerically higher (p = 0.33) for H-diet than M-diet in the [$^2H_5$]phenylalanine model, whereas the WBPS was numerically higher (p = 0.37) for H-diet and WBPS remained similar (p = 0.79) between diets in the [1-$^{13}C$]leucine method. However, the absolute values and the directions of WBPS as well as WBPD from M-diet to H-diet were comparable between the [$^2H_5$]phenylalanine model and [1-$^{13}C$]leucine method. Moreover, the values vary depending on the use of the respective amino acid contents in the carcass protein when calculating WBPS and WBPD. Therefore, it is concluded that the [$^2H_5$]phenylalanine model could be used as an alternative to the [1-$^{13}C$]leucine method for the determination of WBPS and WBPD in sheep.

A method of smart system identification of super high-rise buildings is proposed in which super high-rise buildings are modeled by a shear-bending system. The method is aimed at finding the story shear and bending stiffnesses of a specific story only from the horizontal floor accelerations. The proposed method uses a set of closed-form expressions for the story shear and bending stiffnesses in terms of the limited floor accelerations and utilizes a reduced shear-bending system with the same number of elements as the observation points. A difficulty of prediction of an unstable specific function in a low frequency range can be overcome by introducing an ARX model and discussing its relation with the Taylor series expansion coefficients of a transfer function. It is demonstrated that the shear-bending system can simulate the vibration records with a reasonable accuracy. It is also shown that the vibration records at two super high-rise buildings during the 2011 Tohoku (Japan) earthquake can be simulated with the proposed method including a technique of inserting degrees of freedom between the vibration recording points. Finally it is discussed further that the time-varying identification of fundamental natural period and stiffnesses can be conducted by setting an appropriate duration of evaluation in the batch least-squares method.

In this study, techniques of ion implantation were used in order to improve the characteristics of metal materials such as the oxidation and wear resistant. In particular it is necessary to develope their oxidation and wear resistant that could be used in severe environmental conditions. There are mainly two elementary technologies including ion implantation and/or thin film coating. Ion implantation method was performed for surface modification. As a result, it was found that some ion implantations methods such as Nb, high-temperature Nb ion implantation and Nb+C combined implantation are somewhat effective for improving the oxidation resistance of TiAl alloy. Furthermore, the fluorine PBII treatment is more effective for improving the oxidation resistance of the TiAl alloy with three-dimensional shapes. The implantation of boron ion into thin film of TiN was also effective for improving the properties of materials like high temperature wear resistance. TiCrN film was applied to the actual seal ring for steam turbines, and it was observed that its sliding property showed a successfully good performance.

Experiments at the Japan Microgravity Center (JAMIC) have investigated the interaction between diffusion flames and solid surfaces Placed neat flames The fuel for the flames was $C_{2} H_{4}$ The surrounding oxygen concentration was 35$\%$ with surrounding air temperatures of $T_{a}$ : 300K. Especially, the effect of wall temperature on soot deposition from a diffusion flame Placed near the wall has been studied by utilizing microgravity environment, which can attain very stable flame along the wall. Cylindrical burner with fuel injection was adopted to obtain two dimensional soot distributions by laser extinction method. In the experiment two different wall temperatures. $T_{w}$=300, 800 K, were selected as test conditions The results showed that the soot distribution between flame and burner wall was strong1y affected by the wall temperature and soot deposition increases with decrease in wall temperature. The comparison among the values lot two different wall temperatures suggests that the change in thermophoretic effect is the most dominant factor to give the change in soot deposition characteristics.

The thin films of TiN have been used extensively as wear-resistant materials, for instance, such as tools of high-speed cutting, metal mold forming etc. In these days, because the thin films capable of being used more severe conditions are needed, the technologies of arc ion plating are tried to improve its characteristics. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of thin films of (Ti,Cr)N compared with those of TiN. The method of arc ion plating, which is known as showing good tight-adherence and productivity, was used. After manufacturing thin films of ($Ti_{1-x}Cr_{x}$)N (x=0~1) with change of Cr in (Ti,Cr) target, atomic concentration, structure, size of crystallite, residual stress and surface roughness of thin films on substrate were investigated. As the results, it was confirmed that Cr atomic concentrations of thin films were proportionally changed with Cr atomic concentrations of target, and thin films of ($Ti_{1-x}Cr_{x}$)N (x=0~1) showed NaCl type and CrN existed as solid solution to TiN.

The deposition behavior of soot particles in a diffusion flame along a solid wall was examined experimentally by getting rid of the effect of natural convection utilizing microgravity environment. The microgravity environment was realized by using a drop tower facility. The fuel for the flame was an ethylene ($C_2H_4$) and the surrounding oxygen concentration 35% with the surrounding air velocity of $V_a$=2.5, 5, and 10 cm/s. Laser extinction method was adopted to measure the soot volume fraction distribution between the flame and burner wall. The results show that observation of soot deposition in normal flame was difficult from buoyancy and the relative position of flame and solid surface changes with time. The soot particle distribution region moves closer to the surface of the wall as the surrounding air velocity is increased. And the experiments determined the trace of the maximum soot concentration line. It was found that the distance between soot line and flame line is around 5 mm. That is, the soot particle near the flame zone tends to move away from flame zone because of thermophoretic force and to concentrate at a certain narrow area inside of the flame, finally, to adhere the solid wall.

The force acting on high Tc superconductors at 77K is measured and analyzed numerically. Both values are compared, and the difference between them is discussed. The forces, acting on a superconducting disk (thickness:1[mm], diameter:12[mm]) in an axially-symmetric magnetic field produced by a solenoid or a permanent magnet ring, are measured at 77K. The disk is an YBCO high Tc superconductor. The discrete surface current method(DSCM) is formalized for an axially-symmetric magnetic field. The forces of the superconducting disk in the magnetic field are analyzed using the DSCM, assuming that the disk is a perfect diamagnetic body. When the bottom side of the disk is separated 8[mm] from the top side of the solenoid, and the magnetic field applied on the center of the bottom side of the disk is 96[G], the measured value and the calculated value of the force are 96 and 496[mgf], respectively. The difference between them is caused by a non-perfect diamagnetism of the high Tc superconductor at 77K. It is proposed that a real force acting on high Tc superconductors at 77K can be estimated on the basis of a measured magnetic susceptibility of the high Tc superconductor at 77K and a calculated force of a perfect diamagnetic body.

G. Binnig and H. Rohrer introduced the Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) in 1982 and developed it into a powerful and not to be missed physical tool. Scanning tunneling Microscopy is a real space surface imaging method with the atomic or subatomic resolution in all three dimensions. The tip is scanned over the surface by two piezo translators mounted parallel (X-piezo and Y-piezo) to the surface and perpendicular to each other. The voltage applied to the third piezo (Z-piezo) translator mounted perpendicular to the surface to maintain the tunneling current through the gap at a constant level reflects then the topography of the surface. The feed back control loop for the constant gap current is designed using the automatic control technique. In the designing process of the feed back loop, the identification of the gap dynamics is very complex and has difficulty. In this research, using some suitable test signals, the system dynamics of the gap including the Z-piezo are investigated. Especially, in this paper, a system model is proposed for the gap and Z-piezo series system. Indicial response is used to find out the model. The driving voltage of the Z-piezo and the tunneling current are considered as input and output signals respectively.
