Purpose: This descriptive study compared the perceptions, determinants, and needs of patients, family members, nurses, and physicians regarding life-sustaining treatment decisions for patients with hematologic malignancies in the hematology-oncology department of a tertiary hospital in Seoul, Korea. Methods: In total, 147 subjects were recruited, gave written consent, and provided data by completing a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance, the chi-square test, and the Fisher exact test. Results: Nurses (F=3.35) and physicians (F=3.57) showed significantly greater familiarity with the Act on Decisions on Life-Sustaining Treatment than patients (F=2.69) and family members (F=2.59); (F=19.58, P<0.001). Many respondents, including 19 (51.4%) family members, 16 (43.2%) physicians, and 11 (29.7%) nurses, agreed that the patient's opinion had the greatest effect when making life-sustaining treatment decisions. Twelve (33.3%) patients answered that mental, physical, and financial burdens were the most important factors in life-sustaining treatment decisions, and there was a significant difference among the four groups (P<0.001). Twenty-four patients (66.7%), 27 (73.0%) family members, and 21(56.8%) nurses answered that physicians were the most appropriate people to provide information regarding life-sustaining treatment decisions. Unexpectedly, 19 (51.4%) physicians answered that hospice nurse practitioners were the most appropriate people to talk to about life-sustaining treatment (P<0.001). Conclusion: It is of utmost importance that the patient and physician determine when life-sustaining treatment should be withdrawn, with the patient making the ultimate decision. Doctors and nurses have the responsibility to provide detailed information. The goal of end-of-life planning is to ensure patients' dignity and respect their values.

The partial A-V canal defect consist of ostium primum type atrial septal defect with a cleft mitral anterior leaflet. The clinical findings depend upon the site and size of the left-to-right shunt, the degree of A-V valvular regurgitation, and the degree of resultant pulmonary artery hypertension. We experienced 3 cases of similar condition. The data were as follow: 1. Chest P-A showed increased pulmonary vascularity and moderate cardiomegaly with left atrial enlargement. 2. E.K.G. showed left axis deviation, left atrial enlargement, and left ventricular hypertrophy. 3. Right heart catheterization showed significant 02 step up of SVC-RA and left-to-right shunt. 4. Left ventriculogram showed mitral regurgitation and filling of both atrium. Operative findings were as follow: 1. Primum type atrial septal defect [2x2 cm]. 2. Cleft in the anterior leaflet of the mitral vave. 3. No evidence of ventricular septal defect and tricuspid anomaly. Through a right atriotomy with moderate hypothermia, the mitral cleft was approximated with interrupted sutures. The interatrial communication was closed by a patch of Dacron/pericardium. The patch was attached to junction of the mitral and tricuspid valves along the crest of the ventricular septum using interrupted sutures and the other site using continuous sutures. Postoperative course was uneventful and discharged in good general condition except postoperative bleeding in case 3.

Information-centric networks operate under the assumption that all network components have built-in caching capabilities. Integrating the caching strategies of information centric networking (ICN) with wireless virtualization improves the gain of virtual infrastructure content caching. In this paper, we propose a framework for software-defined information centric virtualized wireless device-to-device (D2D) networks. Enabling D2D communications in virtualized ICN increases the spectral efficiency due to reuse and proximity gains while the software-defined network (SDN) as a platform also simplifies the computational overhead. In this framework, we propose a joint virtual resource and cache allocation solution for latency-sensitive applications in the next-generation cellular networks. As the formulated problem is NP-hard, we design low-complexity heuristic algorithms which are intuitive and efficient. In our proposed framework, different services can share a pool of infrastructure items. We evaluate our proposed framework and algorithm through extensive simulations. The results demonstrate significant improvements in terms of visiting latency, end user QoE, InP resource utilization and MVNO utility gain.

범죄차량 판독 시스템, 지능화된 CCTV 등 차량과 관련된 시각지능에 관한 연구가 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 이 중 차량 분류 기술은, 특정 차량을 인식하는 핵심기술이다. 이와 관련한 기존 연구들은 큰 차종으로만 분류하거나, 분류 가능한 차종의 수, 정확도 등이 낮아 실용성 및 신뢰성이 떨어진다는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 차종을 정확하게 분류할 수 있는 2단계 차종 분류 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 시스템은 CNN으로 학습된 모델을 기반으로 1차로 차량의 유형을 분류하고, 2차로 정확한 차종을 분류한다. 실험 결과, 52개의 차종을 분류함에 있어 단일 분류 모델에 비해 5.3%p 더 높은 90.2%의 분류 정확도를 보였다. 이를 통해, 더욱 정확한 차종 분류가 가능하다.

Background : To study any interference of demonstrated in different patient satisfaction scores for the same questionnaires handled by hospital staff and by independent surveyors, respectively. Methods : This study included 728 subjects who were admitted to a university hospital from June 22 to July 1, 1999. The contents of the questionnaire were composed of six dimensions: hospital structure and process, staffs technical competence and humaneness, information & education and communication. Measurements were performed on a 5-score Likert scale. T-test and logistic regression analysis were also performed. Results : In an outpatient survey, satisfaction scores from a questionnaire delivered by hospital staff were significantly higher than independent surveyors for the dimension of communication, but no differences were shown among other dimensions. In an inpatient survey, satisfaction scores by hospital staff were higher for the process and communication dimensions(p<0.05). In particular, in both the inpatient and outpatient surveys, the difference of satisfaction scores for personnel items were significant between groups. After adjustment for age and sex those differences were significant between groups. Conclusion : To minimize the bias on questionnaire survey, the effects of personnel, who deliver and gather the questionnaire should be carefully considered in the evaluation of health service satisfaction.

The cable degradation process is largely divided into three steps; Step 1 : Thermal degradation, Step 2 : Weibull degradation, Step 3 : Partial discharge. it is progress in step order. This article aims to explain the process of cable degradation using the method of insulation resistance and accordingly to compose and manufacture a system of measuring the life of electrical cable. Before measuring the insulation resistance, a system of measuring the temperature and current of cables was made, and the established system was installed for test on the site of a power plant to collect the measured data. The current sensor was used TFC30P80A-CL420, and temperature sensor was used the DK-1270 PT100 sensor as RTD sensor. When measured the temperature and the load current at the same position, was confirmed that in case of the load current value was high, also temperature value high. Therefore, the correlation between load currents and temperature was verified, and the analysis of diagnostic data was evaluated, which could be utilized in identifying the fault condition of cable systems.

An Antenna & RF system for a fly-away satcom terminal application on ka-band is presented in this paper. The Fly-away satellite terminal can be moved and operated by two person and adapt automatic satellite tracking system in order to decrease the tracking time. Additionally, for low-power consumption, compact size and light-weight, a dual reflector antenna is constructed using dual-offset gregorian antenna structure. For minimize weight, the reflector of the antenna is made of Magnesium. For low-power consumption and light-weight, the pHEMT MMIC compound devices is utilized. The Electronic Band-Gap(EBG) Low-Pass Filter(LPF) is designed for harmonic rejection. In the receiving part, Low-Noise Block converter(LNB) structure is designed for compact and lightweight. In this paper, fly-away satcom terminal with low-power consumption, compact size and light-weight is described with antenna system and RF system performances. Through the experimentation, fly-away terminal's EIRP is more than 50dBW, G/T is more than $17dB/^{\circ}K$.
