  • Purpose : The expectations are defined as desired expectations in initial SERVQUAL scale(1985, 1988), but in modified SERVQUAL scale(1991), are defined as a feasible ideal point expectations. In assessment of nursing service quality by SERVQUAL scale, the definitions of expectations is important problem. The purpose of this study was to compare the feasible ideal point expectations with the desired expectations in assessment of nursing service quality using SERVQUAL scale. Methods : The subjects were 256 inpatients at 4 general hospitals in Jeju-do(123 for feasible ideal point and 133 for desired). The data were collected by two types of self-reporting questionnaires to measure the feasible ideal point and desired expectations. For data analysis, t-test, multiple regression, and comparative analysis of multiple Rs via Fishers Z transformation. Results : Compared with the SERVQUAL scores, the feasible ideal point expectations better explained the variations of the overall consumer satisfaction($R^2$=O.33) than the desired($R^2$=O.25). Conclusion : The feasible ideal point expectations were more suitable to the assessment of nursing service quality using SERVQUAL scale. It will be need to explore the conceptual definitions of expectations using SERVQUAL scale in different settings. Also, further study needs to be conducted to compare alternative service quality measurement scales.

  • This paper is studied micro-defect characteristics by phosphorus 1MeV ion implantation and Rs, SRP, SIMS, XTEM for the RTA process was measured and simulated. As the dose is higher, the Rs is lower. When the dose are $1{\times}10^{13}/cm^2,\;5{\times}10^{13}/cm^2,\;1{\times}10^{14}/cm^2$, the Rp are $1.15{\mu}m,\;1.15{\mu},\;1.10{\mu}m$ respectively. As the RTA time is longer, the maximum concentration position is deeper from the surface and the concentration is lower. Before the RTA was done, we didn't observe any defect. But after the RTA process was done, we could observe the RTA process changed the micro-defects into the secondary defects. The simulation using the buried layer and connecting layer structure was performed. As results, the connecting layer had more effect than the buried layer to latch-up immune. Trigger current was more $0.6mA/{\mu}m$ and trigger voltage was 6V at dose $1{\times}10^{14}/cm^2$ and the energy 500KeV of connecting layer Lower connecting layer dose, latch-up immune characteristics was better.

  • Xenopus oocyte is one of the widely used heterologous expression systems of ion channels for electrophysiological studies. Here we describe a new method in which cRNA produced by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in vitro transcription is injected to express ion channels in oocytes. This method enables us (1) to eliminate all or a part of the untranslated region of the cDNA and to replace it with a known sequence which helps increase the expression level in oocytes, and (2) to use the PCR product for in vitro transcription without subcloning. Using this method, the expression level of one of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) $\alpha$$_{6}$ subtype in oocytes was systematically increased by more than 100-fold, which was confirmed both by the $\alpha$-Bungarotoxin ($\alpha$,/TEX>Bgt) binding assay and the current measurement.t.

  • Adults of Prosimulium kiotoense and Twinnia japonensis were collected and reported from Korea for the first time. Since adult black flies are notorious for morphological homogeneity particularly in female, larval and pupal characters have been mainly used to identify them. Adults of P. kiotoense can be identified by the following combination of characteristics: Adult, wing with radial sector (Rs) branched into R2+3 and R4+5; hind leg basitarsus without calcipala; first tarsomere without pedisulcus. Female, claw without basal thumblike lobe; hypogenial valve elongate, convex, heavily sclerotized medially, posterior end touching each other, space between valves rhomboid. Male, claw with basal thumblike lobe; ventral plate keel shaped; gonostylus with 2-3 spinules. Adults and pupa of T. japonensis can be identified by the following combination of characteristics: Adult, antenna with 7 flagellomeres. Female, hypogenial valve broad, posterior end of valve not touching each other; cercus elongate, subquadrate; spermatheca slightly wider and long, round. Male, claw with basal thumblike lobe; gonostylus with 1 spinule; ventral plate flat. Pupa, gill of 16 filaments, arising from 3 swollen stalks; abdominal tergites without spine combs except tergites III and IV with small recurved hooks; terminal spine well developed, wavy shaped.

  • Objective: Interferon-${\gamma}$ (IFN-${\gamma}$) and signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) each play an important role in carcinogenesis associated with viral infection. Cervical cancer is almost invariably associated with infection by human papillomavirus (HPV), and previous studies suggested that dysregulation of the signal pathway involved in IFN-${\gamma}$ and STATs is associated. Our objective was to evaluate the association of SNPs in STAT2, STAT3, and IFN-${\gamma}$ with cervical cancer susceptibility in Chinese Han women in Hunan province. Materials and Methods: Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples of 234 cervical cancer patients and 216 healthy female controls. STAT2 and STAT3 genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction enzyme (PCR-RE) analysis. IFN-${\gamma}$ genotyping was detected by PCR-amplification of specific allele (PASA). Results: For STAT2 rs2066807 polymorphisms, there was no significant difference of genotype distribution (P=0.827) and allele frequencies (P=0.830, OR=1.09, 95% CI: 0.51-2.31) between cases and controls. For STAT3 rs957970 polymorphisms, there was no significant difference of genotype distribution (P=0.455) and allele frequencies (P=0.560, OR=0.92, 95% CI: 0.71-1.20) between cases and controls. For IFN-${\gamma}$ +874A/T polymorphisms, there was no significant difference of genotype distribution (P=0.652) and allele frequencies (P=0.527, OR=1.12, 95% CI: 0.79-1.59) between cases and controls. Conclusion: These results suggest that polymorphisms in STAT2, STAT3 and IFN-${\gamma}$ genes are not likely to be strong predictors of cervical cancer in Han women in southern China.

  • Cable modems typically are implemented by a forward error correction(FEC) scheme. The ITU-T Recommendation J-38 Annex B specifies using 64- and 256- quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) and extended RS coding scheme. In implementing the cable modem, there are some problems to fabricate and fitting on FPGA chip. First, many clocks are needed in implementing cable modem because of different code rate and different modulation types. To reduce the number of clocks, we use the two memories, which are different clock speed for reading and writing data. Second, this system lost the bit-synchronization and frame-synchronization in decoder, the system recognize that all data is error. This paper solves the problems by using simple 5-stage registers and unique sync-word. Based on solutions for about problems, the cable modem is fabricated on FPGA chip name as Vertex II pro xc2vp30-5 by Xilinx, and we confirmed the effectiveness of the results.

  • 2010년 11월 05일부터 11월 29일 중 총 12일간 진천 소재 충북대학교 천문대의 60cm 반사망원경과 ST-8 CCD 카메라를 이용하여 BD And의 BVR CCD 측광 관측을 수행하여 처음으로 BVR 광도 곡선을 완성하였다. 또한, 극심시각 결정을 위한 측광관측이 레몬산 천문대 1m 반사 망원경과 충북대학교 천문대의 35cm 망원경으로 수행되었다. 우리의 관측을 통하여 모두 19개의 극심시각을 새로이 결정하였다. 새로운 관측은 이 별의 공전주기가 이전까지 알려진 0.4629일이 아니라 그 두 배인 0.9258일이며, 기산점도 반주기 바뀌어야 함을 보여준다. BD And의 광도요소를 $MinI=HJD2434962.8602+0.^d9258054E$으로 새롭게 개정하였다. 이 광도요소로 작성한 우리의 BVR 광도곡선은 제1식과 제2식의 깊이가 거의 비슷하며, 식바깥 부분에 잘 발달된 파형 모양을 보인다. 이는 BD And가 짧은 주기의 RS CVn형 식쌍성임을 나타내는 것이다. 우리의 극심시각을 포함한 총 130개의 극심시각에 대한 (O-C)도를 작성한 결과, BD And의 공전주기가 규칙적으로 변화하는 것을 발견하였다. 이 변화를 보이지 않는 제3천체에 의한 광시간 효과로 가정하여, 궤도이심율이 0.78이며, 9.19년의 주기를 가진 광시간 궤도를 결정하였다. 우리의 광도곡선을 2003년 Wilson-Devinney 쌍성 모형으로 분석하여 광도곡선 해를 질량비 q=0.094, 궤도경사각 $i=85.^{\circ}4$, $T_1=6365(K)$, $T_2=6250(K)$, $R_1=1.132(Rsun)$, $R_2=1.304(Rsun)$와 같이 산출하였다. 식바깥에서 나타나는 파형 모양의 변화는 주성의 표면에 매우 큰 흑점으로 잘 설명되며, BVR 광도곡선에서 각전체 광도의 각 8.3%, 10.0%, 11.7%에 해당되는 제3 광도가 검출되었다. 이는 주기연구에서 제안된 제3천체의 존재 가능성을 더 공고히 한다.

  • The study involved determination of resistance levels of spider mites ta argano-phosphates using topical application and slide dip techniques; laboratory serening tests of alternative acaricides using an O/P resistant strain and a field trial of the screened materials. 1. Strains of Tetranychus were from Timaru(TR), Havelock Narth (HNR), Lincaln (LN). Germany (GR, GN). Comparisons of the resistant strains and normal strains at the LD50 and LC50 levels were as follows : (a) Using the topical application tochnique; with Parathian. resistant levels of the GR. TR and HNR strains of T. urticae were respeativuly, 1035. 484 and 452 times as resistant' as the LN strain. (b) Using the slide dip technique; with Phosdrin, resistant of GR, TR and HNR strains of T. urticae were 635, 274 and 266 times greater respeativuly, than the GN strain. 2. The laboratory sereaning tests were carried out far their contact plus stomach and residual effect to assess the toxicities of eleven alternative materials which would be used far control of O/P resistant strain of T. urticae. The acaricide groups represented were 3 organo-chlorines (Spidex, Kelthane and C 8514), 2 nitrophenyls (UC 19786 and Morocide), 2 cyclic carbonates(Eradex and Morestan). I carbamate (UC2004 7A), 1 mixture of carbamate and orano-chlorine and 2 other chemicals (C 8677 and M2527). From all acaricide tested. Kelthane and Morocide were the most effective, folowed by Spidex and M2527. Morestan, C8514. C8677 and RS 143 were intermediate, but Eradex, UC 19786 and UC 20046A were poor. 3, The number of sapmles required for estimation of the population in the field evaluation of acaricidal effects was one giving the highest practical precision. It was decided, after preliminary sampling trials. to use samples of 30 leaves per replicate which gave a $5.7\%$ standard error. 4. In the field trials, Morocide applied at the $0.05\%\;and\; 0.04\%$ a. i. conc. to black currant trees gave excellent control of O/P resistant population of T. urticae for about 12 days, but Morocide 0.025 and Kel thane $0.02\%$ a. i. cone. gave efficient control for about 6 days. In other words. first applications of Kel thane ane Moroeide gave very high degrees of control of O/P resistant population of the two-spotted spider mite. However, the results indicate that secondary application would sometimes be necessary. There was no foliage damage of black Currants and strawberries by either acaricides at the concentrations used.

  • We study the tensor product algebra Pk(x1) ⊗ Pk(x2) ⊗ ⋯ ⊗ Pk(xm), where Pk(x) is the partition algebra defined by Jones and Martin. We discuss the centralizer of this algebra and corresponding Schur-Weyl dualities and also index the inequivalent irreducible representations of the algebra Pk(x1) ⊗ Pk(x2) ⊗ ⋯ ⊗ Pk(xm) and compute their dimensions in the semisimple case. In addition, we describe the Bratteli diagrams and branching rules. Along with that, we have also constructed the RS correspondence for the tensor product of m-partition algebras which gives the bijection between the set of tensor product of m-partition diagram of Pk(n1) ⊗ Pk(n2) ⊗ ⋯ ⊗ Pk(nm) and the pairs of m-vacillating tableaux of shape [λ] ∈ Γkm, Γkm = {[λ] = (λ1, λ2, …, λm)|λi ∈ Γk, i ∈ {1, 2, …, m}} where Γk = {λi ⊢ t|0 ≤ t ≤ k}. Also, we provide proof of the identity $(n_1n_2{\cdots}n_m)^k={\sum}_{[{\lambda}]{\in}{\Lambda}^k_{{n_1},{n_2},{\ldots},{n_m}}}$ f[λ]mk[λ] where mk[λ] is the multiplicity of the irreducible representation of $S{_{n_1}}{\times}S{_{n_2}}{\times}....{\times}S{_{n_m}}$ module indexed by ${[{\lambda}]{\in}{\Lambda}^k_{{n_1},{n_2},{\ldots},{n_m}}}$, where f[λ] is the degree of the corresponding representation indexed by ${[{\lambda}]{\in}{\Lambda}^k_{{n_1},{n_2},{\ldots},{n_m}}}$ and ${[{\lambda}]{\in}{\Lambda}^k_{{n_1},{n_2},{\ldots},{n_m}}}=\{[{\lambda}]=({\lambda}_1,{\lambda}_2,{\ldots},{\lambda}_m){\mid}{\lambda}_i{\in}{\Lambda}^k_{n_i},i{\in}\{1,2,{\ldots},m\}\}$ where ${\Lambda}^k_{n_i}=\{{\mu}=({\mu}_1,{\mu}_2,{\ldots},{\mu}_t){\vdash}n_i{\mid}n_i-{\mu}_1{\leq}k\}$.
