Argument alternation in English sentences such as "load hay onto the truck" vs. "load the truck with are swarming in the garden" vs. "The garden swarms with bees" present an interesting dilemma for ling in several ways. Along with each kind of syntactic rearrangement of arguments goes a subtle but sig systematic change in the verb's meaning. This has been called as different terminology such as "D "Verbal diathesis", and most commonly as "Argument alternation". Dowty adopts tern Agent-subject(A-subject) form and Location-subject(L-subject) form in referring the two kinds of analyses as well as describes their different properties. In this paper. I basically follow assumption while surveying several 1inguists's analysis and show its theoretical adequacy.

Particle filter is a kind of conditional density propagation model. Its similar characteristics to both selection and mutation operator of evolutionary strategy (ES) due to its Bayesian inference rule structure, shows better performance than any other tracking algorithms. When a new object is entering the region of interest, particle filter sets which have been swarming around the existing objects have to move and track the new one instantaneously. Moreover, there is another problem that it could not track multiple objects well if they were moving away from each other after having been overlapped. To resolve reinitialization problem, we use competitive-AVQ algorithm of neural network. And we regard interfarme difference (IFD) of background images as potential field and give priority to the particles according to this IFD to track multiple objects independently. In this paper, we showed that the possibility of real-time object tracking as intelligent interfaces by simulating the deformable contour particle filters.

In this paper, a new algorithm has been presented that helps to preserve diversity as well as to enhance the convergence speed of the evolutionary programming. This algorithm is based on the cell partitioning of search region for preserving the diversity. Until now, the greater part of researches is not concerned about preserving the diversity of individuals in a population but improving convergence speed. Although these evolutions are started from multi-point search at the early phase, but at the end those search points are swarming about a one-point, the strong candidate. These evolutions vary from the original idea in some points such as multi-point search. In most case we want to find the only one point of the best solution not several points in the vicinity of that. That is why the cell partitioning of search region has been used. By restricting the search area of each individual, the diversity of individual in solution space is preserved and the convergence speed is enhanced. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm has been verified through benchmark test functions.

Adult chironomids were collected by various methods, such as light traps, sweeping on grasses, aspiration of light-attracted adults, and sweeping of swarming males with insect nets at various localities. All collected specimens were slide-mounted and identified. I report eight species new to science: Chironomus jangchungensis n. sp., Demicryptochironomus paracamptolabis n. sp., Demicryptochironomus wontongensis n. sp., Microtendipes paratamagouti n. sp., Polypedilum macrohemisphere n. sp., Eukiefferiella busanensis n. sp., Psectrocladius paratogaminimus n. sp., and Pseudosmittia seosania n. sp. I also report four species for the first time in Korea: Chironomus fujiprimus Sasa, Pentapedilum convexum Johannsen, Tanytarsus smolandicus Brundin, and Tanytarsus oyamai Sasa. All species are fully described with illustrations. This is the first report of the genera Eukiefferiella and Pseudosmittia in Korea.

Chironomid adults were collected by light traps at night, sweeping on grasses, during daytime hours, sweeping of swarming males with an insect net, and aspiration of light-attracted adults using a sucking tube. The collected specimens were slide-mounted and examined. I identified two species new to science, namely Orthocladius manhaei n. sp. and Ablabesmyia jeongi n. sp., and three species for the first time in Korea: Paratrichocladius tamaator Sasa, 1981, Rheocricotopus chalybeatus (Edwards, 1929) and Hayesomyia tripunctata (Goetghebuer, 1922). This is the first report of the genera Rheocricotopus and Hayesomyia in Korea. The genus Hayesomyia in the tribe Pentaneurini of Tanypodinae has a Holarctic distribution with only one species recorded from each of the Palaearctic and Nearctic regions.

Flagellate bacteria such as Escherichia coli or Serratia marcescens possess a remarkable motility system based on a reversible rotary motor. We have employed S. marcescens as microactuators in low Reynolds number fluidic environments to move a larger engineering element around. Microstructures fabricated using conventional microfabrication techniques are blotted on the swarm plate, which leaves a bacterial monolayer on the surface of the microstructure. We have investigated microstructures powered by bacteria to determine how cell orientation on the microstructure surface relates to the swarming patterns as well as how the orientation is affected by the blotting process. This study will help to refine directional control of bacterial transporters by exploiting bacterial sensory mechanisms.

효율적인 파일 공유를 일차적인 목표로 하였던 P2P 프로토콜 기술은 서서히 멀티미디어 스트리밍으로 옮겨져 가고 있다. Swarming 을 이용한 P2P 스트리밍 시스템에서 비디오를 중심으로 한 채널변경 또는 재생지점 변경으로 인해 지연현상이 발생하게 되는데, P2P 시스템에서 해결해야 하는 당면 과제이다. 지연현상을 해결하기 위한 기존의 연구로는 프리페칭 전략이 있지만, 이들은 모든 사용자들의 시청패턴을 고려하지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 사용자 인터랙션과 같은 social meta-data 를 이용하여 프리페칭을 지원하는 시스템을 제안한다.

최근 파일 공유를 위해 널리 사용되는 BitTorrent의 강점은 BitTorrent의 핵심 메커니즘인 peer 선택 기법에 기인한다. Peer 선택 기법은 해당 호스트가 업로드 할 peer를 선택하는 것인데, 이 때 자신에게 각 peer가 업로드한 비율을 비교해서 가장 많이 업로드한 peer들에게 업로드를 하게 된다. 그런데 BitTorrent에서는 업로드할 peer의 개수 (즉, unchoked peer 개수)를 4개로 고정하고 있다. 하지만 peer들의 개수나 다운로드 속도, 업로드 속도와 같은 공유집단 (즉, swarm)의 특성은 계속 변하기 때문에 unchoked peer 개수를 고정하는 것은 효율적이지 않다. 본 논문에서는 BitTorrent에서 unchoked peer 개수가 고정된 4개가 아니라 변할 때 전체 시스템 성능에 어떠한 영향이 끼치는지 분석한다. 분석을 위해 본 논문에서는 서울대학교 캠퍼스 망에 테스트베드를 설치하였고, 실제로 널리 사용되는 오픈 소스 BitTorrent 클라이언트를 수정해서 사용하였다. 테스트베드에서의 다양한 실험을 통해 BitTorrent의 성능이 unchoke 개수에 따라 달라지게 되는 것을 보였고, 이에 따라 swarm의 상황을 고려해서 unchoke개수를 적절하게 조절하는 메커니즘이 필요하다는 것을 보였다.

GacS and GacA proteins form a two component signal transduction system in bacteria. Here, Tn5 transposon gacS and gacA (Gac) mutants of Pseudomonas sp. KL28, an alkylphenol degrader, were isolated by selecting for smooth colonies of strain KL28. The mutants exhibited reduced ability to migrate on a solid surface. This surface motility does not require the action of flagella unlike the well-studied swarming motility of other Pseudomonas sp. The Gac mutants also showed reduced levels of biofilm and pellicle formation in liquid culture. In addition, compared to the wild type KL28 strain, these mutants were more resistant to high concentrations of m-cresol but were more sensitive to $H_2O_2$, which are characteristics that they share with an rpoS mutant. These results indicate that the Gac regulatory cascade in strain KL28 positively controls wrinkling morphology, biofilm formation, surface translocation and $H_2O_2$ resistance, which are important traits for its capacity to survive in particular niches.

Targeting the pathogen viability using drugs is associated with development of drug resistance due to selective pressure. Hence, there is an increased interest in developing agents that target bacterial virulence. In this study, the inhibitory effect of ciclopirox, an antifungal agent with iron chelation potential, on the microbial virulence factors was evaluated in 26 clinical MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates collected from Alexandria Main University Hospital, a tertiary hospital in Egypt. Treatment with 9 ㎍/ml ciclopirox inhibited the hemolytic activity in 70% isolates, reduced pyocyanin production, decreased protease secretion in 46% isolates, lowered twitching and swarming motility, and decreased biofilm formation by 1.5- to 4.5-fold. The quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that treatment with ciclopirox downregulated the expression levels of alkaline protease (aprA) and pyocyanin (phzA1). Ciclopirox is used to treat hematological malignancies and the systemic administration of ciclopirox is reported to have adequate oral absorption with a satisfactory drug safety profile. It is important to calculate the appropriate clinical dose and therapeutic index to reposition ciclopirox from a topical antifungal agent to a promising virulence-modifying agent agent against P. aeruginosa, a problematic Gram-negative pathogen.
