Our study focus on the investigations of the effect of IPRs, the relationship Digital TV with MPEG-2, and the MPEG LA stands. MPEG LA, which build up the strong patent pool, manage to IPRs system of MPEG-2. And we examine the influence of the effect for the. patent of Digital TV and IPRs based on MPEG LA Licensing agreement. Results of this study shows that to be valuable the IPRs of MPEG-2 related to Digital TV, Korea needs the strategies for effective IPRs negotiations and technical accumulation through offensive patent management, and so on.

정보기술분야의 국제 표준화 기구인 ISO/IEC JTC1에서 주도하여 추진하고 있는 MPEG 표준화가 성공적으로 진행되면서 이의 원활한 시장 적용을 위하여 복잡한 체계로 구성되어 있는 MPEG 기술표준과 연관된 다수의 특허권 처리를 위한 구체적인 조화 방안이 필요하게 되었다. 이는 또한 MPEG 기술의 특허권자가 많기 때문에 다자간의 협상이 요구되는 사안이었다. 이러한 문제 해결을 위하여 MPEG-2 표준의 경우 1990년대 초반부터 이 기술의 주요 개발 업체들간에 표준화의 추진과는 별개의 활동으로서 협의체를 구성하여 복잡한 특허권 관리를 위한 전문적인 기구의 설립을 검토하기 시작하였다. 이를 위한 기반으로 라이센싱의 일원화를 실현하는 특허 POOL을 구축하여 1996년 5월에 MPEG LA를 설립하기에 이르렀다. 이러한 MPEG LA는 공정경쟁에 위배되지 않는다는 법적인 승인을 거쳐 1997년 포트폴리오 라이센스를 공표함으로써 그 본격적인 활동을 펼쳐나가고 있다. 본 고는 표준화와 관련된 특허권 활용의 관점에서 획기적 사건이 되고 있는 MPEG LA의 활동 현황을 분석한 것으로서 특히 그 특허 POOL의 내역과 로열티 구조를 중점적으로 하여 포트폴리오 라이센스의 체계를 소개한다.

현재의 디지털산업 하에서 MPEG-2 기술에 의한 주요한 핵심사업으로 부상한 디지털 TV의 현황과 디지털 TV와 MPEG-2와의 관계, 지적재산권 효과를 살펴보았다. MPEG-2는 MPEG LA라는 강력한 특허풀을 통해 지적재산권 체계를 운영하고 있는데, MPEG-2의 대표적인 어플리케이션이라고 할 수 있는 디지털 TV의 지적재산권 효과를 MPEG LA의 라이센싱 체계에 기준하여 분석하였다.

A Patent Pool tends to be activated to establish the harmonization in recently standardization activities related to information and telecommunications with patent rights. Recent main examples of patent pool related to telecommunications standardization are concentrated in this paper. We seem to examine the practical meanings of patent pool from review the examples of utilizing patent pool. Those examples are analyzed and presented in this paper as typical construction cases of patent pool by characteristic of formation : The MPEG-2 patent pool which has become a pioneering precedence being managed by establishing MPEG LA as professional and administrative entity having organizied scalef; DVD patent pool which is a type of dividied case of a patent pool; the patent pool of IEEE1394 which was formed by surronding technology market effect outside the entrepreneur; finally the UMTS case in mobile telecommunications area.

Diblock copolymers consisting of methoxy Poly (ethylene glycol) (MPEG) and poly (${\epsilon}-ca$ prolactone) (PCL), poly(${\delta}-valerolactone$) (PVL), poly(L-lactide) (PLLA), or poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) were prepared to compare the characterization of diblock copolymers as a drug carrier. MPEG-PCL, MPEG-PVL, MPEG-PLLA, and MPEG-PLGA diblock copolymers were synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of ${\epsilon}$-caprolactone or ${\delta}$-valerolactone in the presence of $HCl{\cdot}Et_2O$ as a monomer activator at room temperature and by the ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide or a mixture of L-lactide and glycolide in the presence of stannous octoate at $130^{\circ}C$, respectively. The synthesized diblock copolymers were characterized with $^1H-NMR$, GPC, DSC, and XRD. The micellar characterization of MPEG-polyester diblock copolymers in an aqueous phase was carried out by using NMR, dynamic light scattering, AFM, and fluorescence techniques. Most micelles exhibited a spherical shape in AFM. Thus, ore confirmed that the micelles formed with MPEG-polyester diblock copolymers have possibility as a potential hydrophobic drug delivery vehicle because a hydrophobic drug could be preferentially distributed in the micelle core.

A series of methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) $(MPEG)-poly(\varepsilon-co-L-lactide)$ (PCLA) diblock copolymers were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of a mixture of $\varepsilon-caprolactone$ and L-lactide with different ratios in the presence of $Sn(Oct)_2$. The characterization of MPEG-PCLA diblock copolymers were examined by $^1H-NMR$, GPC, DSC, and XRD. Kinetic study on ring-opening polymerization of monomer mixtures was carried out in various conditions such as a variation with polymerization time, amount of catalyst, and temperature. The highest conversion obtained in 1.2 ratic of initiator venn catalyst at $110\;^{\circ}C$. The biodegradable characterization of MPEG-PCLA diblock copolymers in aqueous solution was carried out by using GPC for $1\~14$ weeks. The biodegradability of MPEG-PCLA diblock copolymers increased as the L-lactide content of diblock copolymers increased. In conclusion, we confirmed the dependence of polymerization rate according to various conditions. In addition, we can control the biodegradability of MPEC-PCLA diblock copolymers by changing the ratio of PCL and PLA block segment.

The preservation of temporal dependencies among a group of processes that exchange continuous media at runtime is a key issue for emerging mobile distributed systems (MDS), such as monitoring of biosignals and interactive multiuser games. Although several works are oriented to satisfy temporal dependencies, most of them are not suitable for MDSs. In general, an MDS is characterized by the absence of global references (e.g. shared memory and wall clock), host mobility, limited processing and storage capabilities in mobile hosts, and limited bandwidth on wireless communication channels. This paper proposes an asymmetric synchronization protocol to be used at runtime in an MDS without using a common reference. One main aspect of our synchronization protocol is that it translates temporal constraints to causal dependencies of the continuous media data as seen by the mobile hosts. We simulate the protocol by considering a cellular network environment and by using MPEG-4 encoders. The simulation results show that our protocol is effective in reducing the synchronization error. In addition, the protocol is efficient in terms of processing and storage costs at the mobile devices, as well as in the overhead attached per message across the wired and wireless channels.

The main objective of this study was to develop and characterize pH-sensitive biodegradable polymeric materials. For pH-sensitivity, we employed three kinds of moieties: 2-amino-3-(lH-imidazol-4-yl)-propionic acid (H), N-[4-( 4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidin-2ylsulfamoyl)-phenyl]succinamic acid (SM), and 2- {3-[ 4-( 4,6-dimethyl-pyrim­idin- 2-ylsulfamoyl)-phenylcarbamoyl]-propionylamino} -3-(3 H - imidazol-4-yl)-propionic acid (SH). The pH -sensitive diblock copolymers were synthesized by ring opening polymerization and coupling reaction from poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG), $\varepsilon$-caprolactone (CL), D,L-lactide (LA) and pH-sensitive moieties. The pH-sensitive SH molecule was synthesized in a two-step reaction. The first step involved the synthesis of SHM, a methyl ester derivative of SH, by coupling reaction of SM and L-histidine methyl ester dihydrochloride, whereas the second step involved the hydrolysis of the same. The synthesized SM, SHM and SH molecules were characterized by FTIR, $^{1}H$-NMR and $^{13}C$-NMR spectroscopy, whereas diblock copolymers and pH-sensitive diblock copolymer were characterized by $^{1}H$-NMR and GPC analysis. The critical micelle concentrations were determined at various pH conditions by fluorescence technique using pyrene as a probe. The micellization and demicellization studies of pH-sensitive diblock copolymers were also done at different pH conditions. The pH-sensitivity was further established by acid-based titration and DLS analysis.
