대량생산체제를 위주로 했던 산업혁명 초기에는 원가계산방식이 비교적 수월하였다. 생산에 투입된 비용을 그대로 생산량으로 나누기만 하면 되었고 이 수치를 그대로 원가라고 간주하여도 기업이 존속하는데는 아무 영향이 없었다. 물론 이 때에도 간접비라는 것은 존재하였으나 그 비중이 미미했기에 이를 무시하여도 되었던 것이다. 그러나 그 때와 달리 지금은 기업환경은 다품종 소량생산, 고객 주문 생산 등의 다양한 형태로 변화되어 왔으며 유연생산시스템, 적시생산시스템 등과 같은 새로운 경영기법 및 생산관리 기법이 발달함에 따라 그간 무시되어 왔던 간접비가 오히려 직접비보다도 많아지는 현상이 생기게 되었다. 그래서 증가하는 간접비를 효과적으로 제품이나 서비스에 배부하여야 하는 필요성에서 연구가 시작되었고 그 결과로서 나온 원가계산방법이 활동기준원가계산시스템이다. 우리 나라에는 90년대 초반에 도입되어 여러기업이 시스템을 구축한 상태이며 이에 대한 사례를 연구한 논문도 발표되었다. 활동기준원가 계산시스템이 기존의 원가계산시스템보다 더 정교하다는 것은 많은 이미 많은 연구들에서 입증이 되었지만 그래도 실제 시스템의 구축에 있어서는 아직도 많은 연구과제가 남아있다. 본 연구는 시스템의 구축과정에서 핵심과정으로써 반드시 거쳐야 하는 활동분석단계에 관심을 두고 활동분석과정을 가능한 적은 비용으로 빠르게 수행하기 위한 방법을 모색하였다. 그 방법으로 선택한 것이 기존의 기업보유자료를 이용하여 활동분석을 수행하는 것으로 비록 활동분석데이터의 신뢰성에는 조금 부족한 면이 있을 수 있으나 기업보유자료가 활동분석과 개연성이 있음을 제시하고자 하였다. 한다.드가 전송한 패킷은 이전 셀 지역에 있는 에이전트가 새로운 셀 지역에 있는 이동 노드로 패킷을 재전송하여 전달하는 smooth 핸드오프 기능을 제공한다. 이전 셀 지역에 속한 외부 에이전트가 바인딩을 갱신하기 전에 송신 노드로부터 이동노드로 전달된 패킷이 있을 경우는 패킷을 저장하여 이후에 이동 노드의 위치 정보에 관한 바인딩 정보가 갱신되면 이러한 바인딩 정보에 따라 패킷을 재전송하는 버퍼기능도 제공한다. route optimization mobile IP는 기본적인 mobile IP에서의 복잡한 라우팅 문제를 해결하고, 핸드오프에서의 패킷 손실률을 최소화 한다.본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 smooth 핸드오프를 이용한 mobile IP의 성능을 분석한다. 일반적으로 데이터 트래픽 특성, 노드의 이동성, 바인딩 갱신시간, 버퍼관리 방법 등은 핸드오프 동안 mobile IP의 성능에 많은 영향을 미친다. 따라서 시뮬레이션 모델을 이용하여 다양한 트래픽 환경에서 위에 언급된 성능 파라미터들의 영향을 분석한다. 마지막으로 시뮬레이션 결과를 이용하여 mobile IP의 성능을 개선시키기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 제시하고자 한다.과로 여겨지며, 또한 혈청중의 ALT, ALP 및 LDH활성을 유의성있게 감소시키므로서 감잎 phenolic compounds가 에탄올에 의한 간세포 손상에 대한 해독 및 보호작용이 있는 것으로 사료된다.반적으로 홍삼 제조시 내공의 발생은 제조공정에서 나타나는 경우가 많으며, 내백의 경우는 홍삼으로 가공되면서 발생하는 경우가 있고, 인삼이 성장될 때 부분적인 영양상태의 불충분이나 기후 등에 따른

Optimal static load balancing in star network configurations is considered. Three kinds of load balancing direction strategies are considered. First, a job arriving at the peripheral nodes may be processed either where it arrived(origin node) or transferred directly to central node Second, a job arriving at the central node may be processed there, or transferred to lightly loaded peripheral nodes. A nonlinear optimization problem is formulated. Using the optimal solution, an optimal load balancing algorithm is derived for the second load balancing strategy. Third a job arriving at the central node or a peripheral node may be processed either at origin node or transferred to another lightly loaded node (central or peripheral). A load balancing algorithm is derived for the third load balancing strategy. The effects of these three load balancing strategies are compared by numerical experiments. During the conduct of these in numerical experiments, several interesting phenomena were observed. The third load balancing strategy improved performance more than the first two other strategies. The second load balancing strategy, as a whole, resulted in only slightly improved performance. Finally, of the central node has larger processing power than the peripheral nodes, the first and third load balancing strategies produce equal performance improvement.

This paper proposes a new technique for calibrating a multi-view RGB-D camera using a 3D (dimensional) skeleton. In order to calibrate a multi-view camera, consistent feature points are required. In addition, it is necessary to acquire accurate feature points in order to obtain a high-accuracy calibration result. We use the human skeleton as a feature point to calibrate a multi-view camera. The human skeleton can be easily obtained using state-of-the-art pose estimation algorithms. We propose an RGB-D-based calibration algorithm that uses the joint coordinates of the 3D skeleton obtained through the posture estimation algorithm as a feature point. Since the human body information captured by the multi-view camera may be incomplete, the skeleton predicted based on the image information acquired through it may be incomplete. After efficiently integrating a large number of incomplete skeletons into one skeleton, multi-view cameras can be calibrated by using the integrated skeleton to obtain a camera transformation matrix. In order to increase the accuracy of the calibration, multiple skeletons are used for optimization through temporal iterations. We demonstrate through experiments that a multi-view camera can be calibrated using a large number of incomplete skeletons.

The settlement prediction is very important in preloading method for a construction site on the soft ground. At the design stage, however, it is hard to predict the settlement exactly due to limitations of the site survey. Most of the settlement prediction is performed by a regression settlement curve based on the field data during construction. In Korea, hyperbolic method has been most commonly used to align the settlement curve with the field data, because of its simplicity and many application cases. The results from hyperbolic method, however, may differ by data selections or data fitting methods. In this study, the analyses using hyperbolic method were performed about the field data of $\bigcirc\bigcirc$ site in Pusan. Two data fitting methods, using an axis transformation or an alternative method which is a direct regression method, were applied with various data groups. If data was used only after the ground water level being stabilized, fitting results using both methods were in good agreement with the measured data. Regardless of the information about the ground water level, the alternative method gives better results with the field data than the method using an axis transformation.

Log data, which record the multitude of information created when operating computer systems, are utilized in many processes, from carrying out computer system inspection and process optimization to providing customized user optimization. In this paper, we propose a MongoDB-based unstructured log processing system in a cloud environment for processing the massive amount of log data of banks. Most of the log data generated during banking operations come from handling a client's business. Therefore, in order to gather, store, categorize, and analyze the log data generated while processing the client's business, a separate log data processing system needs to be established. However, the realization of flexible storage expansion functions for processing a massive amount of unstructured log data and executing a considerable number of functions to categorize and analyze the stored unstructured log data is difficult in existing computer environments. Thus, in this study, we use cloud computing technology to realize a cloud-based log data processing system for processing unstructured log data that are difficult to process using the existing computing infrastructure's analysis tools and management system. The proposed system uses the IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) cloud environment to provide a flexible expansion of computing resources and includes the ability to flexibly expand resources such as storage space and memory under conditions such as extended storage or rapid increase in log data. Moreover, to overcome the processing limits of the existing analysis tool when a real-time analysis of the aggregated unstructured log data is required, the proposed system includes a Hadoop-based analysis module for quick and reliable parallel-distributed processing of the massive amount of log data. Furthermore, because the HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) stores data by generating copies of the block units of the aggregated log data, the proposed system offers automatic restore functions for the system to continually operate after it recovers from a malfunction. Finally, by establishing a distributed database using the NoSQL-based Mongo DB, the proposed system provides methods of effectively processing unstructured log data. Relational databases such as the MySQL databases have complex schemas that are inappropriate for processing unstructured log data. Further, strict schemas like those of relational databases cannot expand nodes in the case wherein the stored data are distributed to various nodes when the amount of data rapidly increases. NoSQL does not provide the complex computations that relational databases may provide but can easily expand the database through node dispersion when the amount of data increases rapidly; it is a non-relational database with an appropriate structure for processing unstructured data. The data models of the NoSQL are usually classified as Key-Value, column-oriented, and document-oriented types. Of these, the representative document-oriented data model, MongoDB, which has a free schema structure, is used in the proposed system. MongoDB is introduced to the proposed system because it makes it easy to process unstructured log data through a flexible schema structure, facilitates flexible node expansion when the amount of data is rapidly increasing, and provides an Auto-Sharding function that automatically expands storage. The proposed system is composed of a log collector module, a log graph generator module, a MongoDB module, a Hadoop-based analysis module, and a MySQL module. When the log data generated over the entire client business process of each bank are sent to the cloud server, the log collector module collects and classifies data according to the type of log data and distributes it to the MongoDB module and the MySQL module. The log graph generator module generates the results of the log analysis of the MongoDB module, Hadoop-based analysis module, and the MySQL module per analysis time and type of the aggregated log data, and provides them to the user through a web interface. Log data that require a real-time log data analysis are stored in the MySQL module and provided real-time by the log graph generator module. The aggregated log data per unit time are stored in the MongoDB module and plotted in a graph according to the user's various analysis conditions. The aggregated log data in the MongoDB module are parallel-distributed and processed by the Hadoop-based analysis module. A comparative evaluation is carried out against a log data processing system that uses only MySQL for inserting log data and estimating query performance; this evaluation proves the proposed system's superiority. Moreover, an optimal chunk size is confirmed through the log data insert performance evaluation of MongoDB for various chunk sizes.

In spite of much progress in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) program, the pregnancy rate remains at 20-30%, and the endometrial implantation rate per embryo transferred at 10-15%. As a result, about 90% of embryos may fail to implant to the endometrium, and many attempts such as optimization of follicular development, improvement of in vitro culture system including coculture, and micromanipulation of zona pellucida have been made to improve embryonic implantation after IVF-ET. Recently, several procedures of assisted hatching (AH) using micromanipulation have been introduced, and pregnancies and births have been obtained after AH. To develop and establish AH as an effective procedure to improve embryonic implantation, AH with partial zona dissection (PZD) was performed in 116 cycles of 89 infertile couples who had previous repeated failures of standard IVF-ET more than two times (Group I: 71 cycles in 54 patients), or who had implantation failure of embryos with good quality (Group II: 15 cycles in 13), or who had undergone AH without specific indication (Group III: 30 cycles in 22) from January, 1995 to Februry, 1996, and the outcomes of AH were analyzed according to pregnancy rate. The number of oocytes retrieved after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) was $9.9{\pm}7.1$ in Group I, $11.5{\pm}4.5$ in Group II, and $7.9{\pm}6.4$ in Group III. The number of embryos transferred after AH was $4.7{\pm}1.8$ in Group I, $5.3{\pm}1.3$ in Group II, and $3.5{\pm}2.4$ in Group III. The mean cumulative embryo score (CES) was $56.8{\pm}30.0$ in Group I, $76.1{\pm}35.9$ in Group II, and $38.5{\pm}29.9$ in Group III. The overall clinical pregnancy rate per cycle and per patient was 12.7% (9/71) and 16.7% (9/54) in Group I, 33.3% (5/15) and 38.5% (5/13) in Group II, and 6.7% (2/30) and 9.1% (2/22) in Group III, respectively. There were significant differences in the numbers of oocytes retrieved and embryos transferred, CES, and the clinical pregnancy rate per cycle among three groups. There was a significant inverse correlation between basal serum FSH level and CES, and no pregnancy occurred in patients with CES less than 20. In conclusion, AH of human embryos with PZD prior to ET has improved the implantation and pregnancy rates in IVF-ET patients with the past history of repeated failures, especially in spite of transfer of embryos with good quality, and AH will provide a range of novel techniques which may contribute much to effective management of infertile couples.

The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) is amending its test methods for health-functional foods (dietary food supplements) to establish regulatory standards and specifications in Korea. In this regard, we continue our research on developing analytical methods for the items. Octacosanol is the major component of polycosanol and is a high-molecular-mass primary fatty alcohol, obtained from sugar cane wax. Previous researchers have shown that octacosanol can lower cholesterol and has antiaggregatory properties, cytoprotective uses, and ergogenic properties for human health. Recently, octacosanol products have been actively introduced into the domestic market because of their functional biological activity. We have developed a sensitive and selective test method for octacosanol that the TMS derivatives by means of gas-chromatographic-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The trimethylsilyl ether derivative of the target analyte showed excellent chromatographic properties. The procedure was validated in the range of $12.5{\sim}200{\mu}g/L$. Standard calibration curves presented linearity with the correlation coefficient ($r^2$) > 0.999, and the limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantitation (LOQ) were $4.5{\mu}g/L$ and $13.8{\mu}g/L$, respectively. The high recoveries (92.5 to 108.8%) and precision (1.8 to 2.4%) obtained are in accordance with the established validation criteria. Our research can provide scientific evidence to amend the octacosanol test method for the Health-Functional Food Code.
