Tn this paper we described the process and the results of an implementation of Internet terminal using G.729.1 wideband speech codec for next generation network. For this purpose firstly we chose a high performance RISC application processor having DSP features for speech codec processing and enhanced Multimedia Accelerator(eMMA) function for video codec. In the implementation of this terminal, we used G.729.1 codec recently standardized in ITU-T which is a new scalable speech and audio codec that extends 0.729 speech coding standard. To adopt G.729.1 codec to this terminal we transformed most of the fixed point C codes which require more complexity into assembly codes so as to minimize processing time in the processor. As a result of this work we reduced the execution time of the original C codes about 80% and operated in real time on the terminal. For video we used H.263/MPEG-4 codec which is supported by the eMMA with hardware in the processor. In the SIP call processing test connected to real network we obtained under looms end-to-end delay and 3.8 MOS value measured with PESQ instrument. Besides this terminal operated well with commercial terminals.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the differences in preference for terminal care between hospitalized patients and nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive design was used in 79 patients and 107 nurses. The data were collected from August to October 2011, using the Preference for Care near the End of life Scale - Korean Version (PCEOL-K) with 5-point scale of 26 items. The reliability of the tool was Cronbach's ${\alpha}=.74$. Results: The mean score (SD) of PCEOL-K's sub-dimensions in nurses' priority was: (a) pain $3.70{\pm}0.63$, (b) spirituality $3.63{\pm}0.61$, (c) family $3.40{\pm}0.70$, (d) autonomous decision making $2.30{\pm}0.66$, and (e) decision making by healthcare professionals $2.14{\pm}0.64$. In patients' priority, the $M{\pm}SD$ score of each sub-dimension was: (a) pain $3.86{\pm}0.65$, (b) family $3.83{\pm}0.57$, (c) decision making by healthcare professionals $3.37{\pm}0.85$, (d) spirituality $3.01{\pm}0.80$, and (e) autonomous decision making $2.43{\pm}0.63$. Results indicated significant differences between nurses and patients regarding decision making by healthcare professionals (t=-11.28, p<.001), family (t=-4.66, p<.001), and spirituality (t=5.71, p<.001). Conclusion: The PCEOL-K of patients was higher than nurses'. A terminal care program for hospitalized patients at the end of life should be planned according to the results of PCEOL-K in nurses and patients.

PURPOSE. To explore whether there is matching relation between the length and the tilting angle of terminal implants in the All-on-Four protocol by studying the effects of different implant configurations on stress distributions of implant, bone, and framework. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Four implants were employed to support a full-arch fixed prosthesis and five three-dimensional finite element models were established with CT images, based on the length (S and L) and distal tilt angle ($0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$) of terminal implants for an edentulous mandible, which named: Tilt0-S, Tilt30-S, Tilt30-L, Tilt45-S and Tilt45-L. An oblique 240 N was loaded at second molar. The von Mises Stresses were analyzed. The implants were consecutively named #1 to #4 from the loading point. RESULTS. 1) Tilt0-S had the greatest stress on the implants, with the other groups exhibiting variable reductions; the four implants of Tilt45-L demonstrated the greatest reduction in stress. 2) Tilt0-S had the greatest stress at bone around #1 implant neck, and Tilt45-L exhibited the least stress, which was a 36.3% reduction compared to Tilt0-S. 3) The greatest stress in the framework was found on the cantilevers distal to #1 implant. Tilt45-S exhibited the least stress. CONCLUSION. Matching different length and tilting angle of the terminal implants led to variable stress reductions on implants, bone and the superstructure. By optimizing implant configuration, the reduction of stress on implants and surrounding bone could be maximized. Under the present condition, Tilt45-L was the preferred configuration. Further clinical testings are required.

This paper propose a heuristic method that divides the block into some work regions to operate stacking cranes efficiently in a automated container terminal where the blocks with non-crossing stacking cranes(SC) are laid out in perpendicular to the quay. Typically, fund over between SCS and trucks occur at each side if the blocks, and each if the landside and seaside SCS is responsible for the jobs that occur at its own side. When a container to be fetched is located far from fund over point, the SC should move a long distance and the interference between the two cranes am occur, which decreases the productivity of the SCS. Therefore, our method divides the block into two exclusive and one shared regions and let the containers located far from their fund over points to be transferred to the shared region by the other side crane before they are carried out. Although simple this method am reduce the crane movement and the interference between the two cranes. Simulation experiment shows that our proposed method significantly improves the productivity if the container terminal than previous heuristic that does not divide work regions.

The aim of study is to analyze the berth occupancy rate according to the ship size. P Iron and steel company operate exclusive bulk terminal at P port and G port and the depth of water at berth are not so equal each other. And to reduce the sea transport cost between loading port and unloading port P and G, P company increases the number of large ship while ship scheduling. But it causes to increase the berth congestion at the specific water depth berth owing to the draught of large ship. At this point, usually ship waiting time starts to rise even at low levels of berth occupancy rate, and will rise more and more sharply at the level of full utilization. But it is not common at exclusive terminal like P port and G port. Bulk ships arrive at port according to the early planned arrival time and the coefficient of variation of ship arrival time is not so big. So queueing time at exclusive terminal does not rise sharply near 80-90 berth occupancy rate.

ErmSF is one of the ERM proteins which transfer the methyl group to A2058 in 23S rRNA to confer the resis­tance to MLS (macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B) antibiotics on microorganism. Unlike other ERM pro­teins, ErmSF contains long N-terminal end region (NTER), of which $25\%$ is composed of arginine that is known to interact with RNA well. Gradual deletion of NTER leaded us to the point where mutant protein lost much of activity in vivo. Overexpressed and purified mutant protein showed much reduced activity in vitro: $2\%$ activity relative to that of wild type protein. This fact suggests that this amino acid interact with RNA close to meth­ylatable adenine to locate it at an active site properly.

Container terminal yards operate under a high degree of uncertainty as the contact point between inbound and outbound operations of vessels and external trucks. The layout, equipment operations. and job orders at the yards determine the efficacy and delays of the work, so many studies have investigated improvements in efficiency. H company, a container terminal operator developed an index called WDI to distribute work among RTGCs. The WDI is an indicator to prevent congestion in one place by equally distributing the work to each RTGC. This paper analyzes the effect of the WDI introduction and discusses the causes and results of the WDI introduction effect from quantitative and qualitative perspectives.
