We experimented on memory multichip modules to increase the packing density of memory devices and to improve their electrical characteristics. A 128K$\times$8bit SRAM module was made of four 32K$\times$8bit SRAM memory chips. The memory multichip module was constructed on a low-cost double sided PCB(printed circuit boared) substrate. In the process of fabricating a multichip module. we focused on the improvement of its electrical characteristics. volume, and weight by employing bare memory chips. The characteristics of the bare chip module was compared with that of the module with four packaged chips. We conducted circuit routing with a PCAD program, and found the followings: the routed area for the module with bare memory chips reduced to a quarter of that area for module with packaged memory chips. 1/8 in volume, 1/5 in weight. Signal transmission delay times calculated by using transmission line model was reduced from 0.8 nsec to 0.4 nsec only on the module board, but the coupling coefficinet was not changed. Thus, we realized that the electrical characteristics of multichip packages on PCB board be improved greatly when using bare memory chips.

The embedded system has less fast CPU and lower memory than PC(personal Computer) or Workstation system. Therefore embedded operating is system is designed to efficiently use the limited resource in the system. Virtual memory management or the embedded linux have a low efficiency when page fault is occurred to get a data from I/O device. Because a data is moving from the swap device to main memory. This paper suggests virtual memory compression algorithm for improving in virtual memory management and capacity of space. In this paper, we present a way to performance implement a virtual memory compression system that achieves significant improvement for the embedded system.

Extracts of adult worker bodies of Vespa simillima in 2 % NaCl or acidified methanol were administered orally to mice for 70 days. Following this period, memory at one-day and one-month periods, and the effects on scopolamine-induced amnesia were examined using a step-through passive avoidance task. Changes in MK-801-induced disability after 8 days of training, and in memory one month after the trial were also assessed. Mice treated with the 2% NaCl extract showed significant improvement in memory in the behavioral tests one month after the trial, whereas mice receiving the extract in acidified methanol, did not differ from the controls in any trial. The results inidicate that Vespa simillima contains substances acting favorably on the cerebral functions of mammals.

When we design the control system used Programmable Logic Controller(PLC) by Sequential Function Chart(SFC), if we use a SFC, it is easy to know the sequential flow of control, to maintenance the controller and to describe a program. We program a SFC by a unique sequence, an alternative sequence and a parallel sequence. If we program a SFC by a alternative sequence, the memory size of a alternative sequence must be larger than the memory size of a unique sequence. Therefore this thesis show an efficient method to reduce a memory size and we confirmed its feasibility through actual example.

In this paper we design and implement a method for application programs to allow handling of large data files in DOS environment. In this method we use extended memory and hard disk as a data buffer. And we use a part of the conventional DOS memory as a buffer cache which allows the application program to use extended memory and hard disks transparently. Using buffer cache also allows us some speed improvement for the application program.

Data access characteristics can directly affect the efficiency of the system execution. This research is to design an accurate predictor by using historical memory access information, where highly accessible data can be migrated from low-speed storage (SSD/HHD) to high-speed memory (Memory/CPU Cache) in advance, thereby reducing data access latency and further improving overall performance. For this goal, we design a locally weighted linear regression prefetch scheme to cope with irregular access patterns in large graph processing applications for a DARM-PCM hybrid memory structure. By analyzing the testing result, the appropriate structural parameters can be selected, which greatly improves the cache prefetching performance, resulting in overall performance improvement.

This study was a quasi-experimental study to confirm the effects of a memory training program using efficacy sources. The purpose was to develop an effective memory training program for elderly people and to identify the effects of the memory training program. This study was carried out between February 24 and July 18, 1999 and the subjects of the study were 102 elderly people who were participants at a welfare institute in Seoul. The experimental group (51) and the control group (51) were assigned by means of participation order. The control group was matched to the experimental group and was selected considering age, sex, and religion. The experimental group participated in the memory training program. The memory training program was based on the literature of Fogler & Stern (1994), Wang & Lee (1990), Lee (1991) and Lee (1993). The memory training program was given twice a week for two weeks with each program lasting two hours. Task centered memory self-efficacy was measured using the Memory Self-Efficacy Scale developed by Berry & Dennehey (1989) and Meta Memory was measured by the MIA developed by Dixon et al. (1988) Memory performance was measured by the word list developed by Cho Sung Won (1995) and the face recognition task (Face Recognition Task developed for this study). Data were analyzed by SPSS PC and the results are described below. 1. The experimental group which participated in the Memory Training Program showed higher task centered memory self-efficacy scores as compared to the control group (t=4.354, P=.0001). 2. The experimental group which participated in the Memory Training Program showed higher metamemory scores as compared to the control group (t=4.733, P=.0001). 3. The experimental group which participated in the Memory Training Program showed higher memory performance scores as compared to the control group (t=7.500, P=.0001). The memory performance involved an immediate word recall task, a delayed word recall task, a word recognition task, and the face recognition task. 4. In the experimental group, there was significant correlation between the task centered memory self-efficacy scores and the metamemory scores (r=.382, P=.006), but the correlation between the task centered memory self-efficacy scores and the memory performance scores and between the metamemory scores and the memory performance scores were not significant. The results showed that task centered memory self-efficacy, meta memory and memory performance improved following the Memory Training Program including the memory process, changes in memory with aging, and appropriate use of memory strategies. Memory Training Program is an effective nursing intervention for improving memory in elderly people and, also, in people with complaints of memory loss.

To investigate effects of cognitive function improvement whether against Taegeuk ginseng on scopolamine-induced memory impairment in rats. All experiments were conducted in three groups: the control group (CTR), the scopolamine 0.4mg/kg (SCP), and the scopolamine (SCP+T) treated with Taegeuk ginseng 100 mg/kg. Taegeuk ginseng 100 mg/kg daily was orally administered for one month and treated with scopolamine was only for 7 consecutive days on the Morris water maze task. 3 weeks after oral administration of Taegeuk ginseng, subjects were performed the Morris water maze test for 8 days and then the open-field exploration test which to assessed for cognitive function improvement. After behavioral testing, subjects were sacrificed and microdissected brains for neurochemical analysis. In the cognitive-behavioral test, long-term administration of Taegeuk ginseng improved spatial navigation learning task compared with the impeded by scopolamine treatment. In neurochemistry, the expression of the synaptic marker PSD95 (postsynaptic density protein 95) was increased in the hippocampus compared to the scopolamine group. Also, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression was significantly increased in the taegeuk ginseng administration group. These data suggested that long-term administration of taegeuk ginseng might improve cognitive-behavioral functions on hippocampal related spatial learning memory, and it was correlated with neurotropic and synaptic reinforcement. In conclusion, treatment with taegeuk ginseng may positive outcome on learning and memory deficit disorders.
