The purpose of this study is to evaluate an effect of levamisole on the chemical crcinogenesis in the submandibular salivary gland of rats through histopathologic observation. 60 male Sprague Dawley rats were employed in this study, divided into one control and two experimental groups. An pellet of 5 mg of 9, 10-dimethyl-1,2-benzathracene(DMBA) powder was implanted into submandibular salivary gland of each animal among 20 in control. And each animal among 20 in experimental group 1 received 0.7 mg of levamisole hydrochloride orally every day starting at the beginning of the fifth week after DMBA implantation under the same methods as in control. And each animal among 20 in experimental group 2 received the same treatment as in control at the beginning of the fifth week after oral administration of levamisole hydrochloride under the same method as experimental group 1. Each 5 animals in control at the end of 2nd, 4th, 6th 8th, week after experiments, and each 10 animals in experimental group 1,2 at the end of 6th, 8th week after experiments were sacrificed at random. Also the specimens from experimental sites of submandibular salivary glands were routinely processed for histopathologic observation under Hematoxilin-eosin(H-E) staining. The obtained results were as follows : 1. In control, generally, the glandular ductal cell showed the tendency of dysplasia or malignancy with progression of experiment. 2. In experimental group 1, generally, the dysplasia or malignancy of the glandular ductal cell was less prominent than in control, while the lymphocyte infiltration and fibrosis were prominent. 3. In experimental group 2, generally, the dysplasia of the glandular ductal cell was significantly less prominent than in control, while the fibrosis was prominent. 4. Under above results levamisole was thought to delay or prevent the chemical carcinogenesis in the submandibular salivary gland.

This paper describes the GIS system that enables users to look up the final destination on a map automatically by setting up a random radius of threshold under the present user position. Various information systems based on the existing GIS have disadvantage that a search is difficult when the destination location is not clear. And it is inefficient that the processing time is delay due to a complex configuration and large amount of informations based on the target of special business supports. Therefore, this paper improves these problems and proposes the customized geographic information system which is for the general user. The customized geographic information system confirms the detail items from search results, which is destinations fitting for a condition in the suitable radius of threshold from the present user position. And the user can look up the suitable final destination on a map easily using the customized information system. The result of this paper, which is based on the sample of the large unit locations, will be expected to be able to guide more detail, extensive and various informations.

We must design the buffer algorithm that protects traffic congestion and decreasing throughput at satellite communication network. It is important that buffer algorithm is satisfied with the good performance of transmission packet, responsibility of many connecting traffic and the QOS for connecting character. Old buffer algorithms are not the suitable algorithms when we have the satellite communication network environment. RED buffer algorithm is proposed by Floyd. It has a better performance than old buffer algorithm. But this algorithm is not well adapted a number of connecting TCP packet and changing network, so this algorithm has a bad performance on satellite communication network that is many of connecting user at same time. This paper propose the TARED(Target Adaptive RED). It has a good performance, adaptation and stability on satellite communication network and has not overflow and underflow of the buffer level.

The major source of errors in high-speed networks such as Broadband ISDN(B-lSDN) is buffer overflow during congested conditions. These congestion errors are the dominant sources of errors in 1high-speed networks and result in cell losses. Conventional communication protocols use error detection and retransmission to deal with lost packets and transmission errors. However, these conventional ARQ(Automatic Repeat Request) methods are not suitable for the high-speed networks since the transmission delay due to retransmissions becomes significantly large. As an alternative, we have presented a method to recover consecutive cell losses using forward error correction(FEC) in ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode)networks to reduce the problem. The performance estimation based on the cell discard process model has showed our method can reduce the cell loss rate substantially. Also, the performance estimations in ATM networks by interleaving and IP multicast service are discussed.

In order to analyze the influence of the noise on a cross-well traveltime tomography to detect a small scale low velocity body in a homogeneous medium, the first arrival travel times were computed one a tunnel model by a finite-difference ray tracing scheme. Three different types and four different intensity levels of white noises were added to the computed first arrival travel times, and velocity tomograms were constructed using an iterative inversion method (SIRT). Tomograms with the noise intensity up to 10% of the maximum traveltime delay in the tunnel model, showed the exact location of the tunnel. However, the velocity shown at the tunnel location was not close to air velocity but only slightly less than the velocity of the background medium. The additive random noise showed significantly less degree of influence on the resulting tomogram than the source- and receiver consistent noise.

In this paper, we present a very useful method for updating digital satellite radio broadcast channel information. When a devices equipped with function to receive Digital Satellite Radio such as Home Theater, MP3 player, mobile phones, car audio system and various other types of Digital Devices, receives new Digital satellite radio (will be mentioned as XM radio onwards) broadcast channel information, only the current received XM radio broadcast channel and N number of pre/post nearby broadcast channels are scanned randomly in zigzag manner. Then the previous XM radio broadcast channel information updated with the newly received XM radio broadcast channel information. Since this method can prevent batch update for all XM radio channel, including some channels which less likely did not select by user, update process for real time frequently changed XM radio broadcast channel information can be performed efficiently with minimal or without delay.

Data delivery is very challenging in VANETs because of its unique characteristics, such as fast topology change, frequent disruptions, and rare contact opportunities. This paper tries to explore the scope of 3G-assisted data delivery in a VANET within a budget constraint of 3G traffic. It is started from the simple S_Random (Srand) and finally reached the 3GSDD, i.e., the proposed algorithm. The performance evaluation of different algorithms is done through the two metrics delivery ratio and average delay. A third function utility is created to reflect the above two metrics and is used to find out the best algorithm. A packet can either be delivered via multihop transmissions in the VANET or via 3G. The main challenge is to decide which set of packets should be selected for 3G transmissions and when to deliver them via 3G. The aim is to select and send those packets through 3G that are most sensitive and requiring immediate attention. Through appropriate communication mechanism, these sensitive information are delivered via VANET for 3G transmissions. This way the sensitive information which could not be transmitted through normal VANET will certainly find its destination through 3G transmission unconditionally and with top priority. The delivery ratio of the packets can also be maximized by this system.

It is difficult for TCP congestion control algorithm to ensure the bandwidth and delay bound required for media streaming services in broadband wireless network environments. In this paper, we propose the COIN TCP (COncave INcrease TCP) scheme for providing a high-quality media streaming services. The COIN TCP concavely increases the congestion window size by adjusting the increment rate of congestion window, that is inversely proportional to the amount of data accumulated in the router queue. As a result, our scheme can quickly occupy the available bandwidth and prevent the heavy congestion. It also improves the link utilization by adjusting the decrement rate of congestion window according to the packet loss rate with the random loss. Through the simulation results, we prove that our scheme improves the total throughput in broadband wireless network.

Since low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations have important advantages over geosynchronous earth orbit (GEO) systems such as low propagation delay, low power requirements, and more efficient spectrum allocation due to frequency reuse between satellites and spotbeams, they are considered to be used to complement the existing terrestrial fixed and wireless networks in the evolving global mobile network. However, one of the major problems with LEO satellites is their higher speed relative to the terrestrial mobile terminals, which move at lower speeds but at more random directions. Therefore, handover management in LEO satellite networks becomes a very challenging task for supporting global mobile communication. Efficient and accurate methods are needed for LEO satellite handovers between the moving footprints. In this paper, we propose a new seamless handover management scheme for LEO satellites (SeaHO-LEO), which utilizes the handover management schemes aiming at decreasing latency, data loss, and handover blocking probability. We also present another interesting handover management model called satellite mobility pattern based handover management in LEO satellites (PatHO-LEO) which takes mobility pattern of both satellites and mobile terminals into account to minimize the handover messaging traffic. This is achieved by the newly introduced billboard manager which is used for location updates of mobile users and satellites. The billboard manager makes the proposed handover model much more flexible and easier than the current solutions, since it is a central server and supports the management of the whole system. To show the performance of the proposed algorithms, we run an extensive set of simulations both for the proposed algorithms and well known handover management methods as a baseline model. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithms are very promising for seamless handover in LEO satellites.
