  • In this paper, a modified-SOYA (soft output viterbi algorithm) of turbo codes is proposed for quantized channel receiver filter outputs. We derive optimum branch values for the Viterbi algorithm. Here we assume that received filter outputs are quantized and the channel is additive white Gaussian noise. The optimum non-uniform quantizer is used to quantize channel receiver filter outputs. To compare the BER (bit error rate) performance we perform simulations for the modified SOYA algorithm and the general SOYA

  • Korean Bryocoris species, B. gracilis and B. montanus, were reviewed. Of these, B. gracilis Linnavuori, 1962 is first reported in Korea and diagnosed, based on a single female specimen collected from Mount Hwangmaesan, Gyeongsangnam-do province. A key to the Korean species and photographs on external features are given.

  • Objectives : Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by severe pruritus, and may be accompanied by Molluscum Contagiosum, Verruca Vulgaris. This paper aims to examine the clinical implications of the treatment of 3 cases of atopic dermatitis with Molluscum Contagiosum, Verruca Vulgaris. Methods : 3 patients were treated by herbal medicine, herbal acupuncture, acupuncture, moxibustion and external preparations. Photographs of lesions, VAS were used to evaluate the changes in symptoms. Results : Atopic dermatitis is accompanied by Molluscum Contagiosum or Verruca Vulgaris because the underlying cell layer is easily exposed to Molluscum Contagiosum and Human papilloma virus because of scatch by pruritus. And all three cases have been well recovered by korean medical treatment. Conclusions : This study shows that Korean medical treatment is effective to treat atopic dermatitis with Molluscum Contagiosum, Verruca Vulgaris.

  • Shu-gyo-ryoku, a program to enhance students' academic and career skills, was begun in the academic year 2011. Under the new program, "Career Planning" and "Career Design" were introduced as part of the liberal arts education for incoming freshmen. Approximately 500 students majoring in engineering enrolled in "Career Planning" in which they study a "curriculum map" and how it relates to their future fields of employment. The curriculum map illustrates the connections between classes and increases students'understanding of the curriculum structure. In small groups, students discussed the curriculum in order to develop sketches of their career paths. In addition, students answered a career anchor test and though several communicative activities, improved their communication skills. A portfolio system was built into the university network to record the learning history of each student. Students are able to check their learning histories and reflect on the change in themselves during their academic careers.

  • This paper considers an integrated decision for scheduling and outsourcing(or, subcontracting) of a finite number of jobs(or, orders) in a time-sensitive make-to-order manufacturing environment. The jobs can be either processed in a parallel in-house facilities or outsourced to subcontractors. We should determine which jobs should be processed in-house and which jobs should be outsourced. And, we should determine the schedule for the jobs to be processed in-house. If a job is determined to be processed in-house, then the scheduling cost(the completion time of the Job) is imposed. Otherwise(if the job should be outsourced), then an additional outsourcing cost is imposed. The objective is to minimize the linear combination of scheduling and outsourcing costs under a budget constraint for the total available outsourcing cost. In the problem analysis, we first characterize some solution properties and then derive dynamic programming and branch-and- bound algorithms. An efficient heuristic is also developed. The performances of the proposed algorithms are evaluated through various numerical experiments.

  • Many methods to examine the vulnerable areal for the contingencies in the power system. The most widely used index for the vulnerable area investigation has been the reactive power margin or sensitivity analysis. But we can get the results of these analyses if only the results of load flow are convergent in severe contingencies, otherwise these methods are not adoptable. We can present a good index for overcoming severe contingencies, if we can get the vulnerable areas by bus sensitivity in severe contingencies, though the power flow equation is unsolvable. This paper simulates unsolvable severe contingencies by using branch parameter continuation power flow. We can compute the vulnerable areas in unsolvable severe contingencies by normal vector at a nose point of a $\nu-V$ curve. Presented method is checked the input reactive power of the vulnerable areas in KEPCO system.

  • There are many things in common between hemodynamics in arterial systems and multibody dynamics in mechanical systems. Hemodynamics is concerned with the forces generated by the heart and the resulting motion of blood through the multi-branched vascular system. The conventional hemodynamics model has been intended to show the general behavior of the body arterial system with the frequency domain based linear model. The need for detailed models to analyze the local part like coronary arterial tree and cerebral arterial tree has been required recently. Non-linear analysis techniques are well-developed in multibody dynamics. In this paper, the studies of hemodynamics are summarized from the view of multibody dynamics. Computational algorithms of arterial tree analysis is derived, and proved by experiments on animals. The flow and pressure of each branch are calculated from the measured flow data at the ascending aorta. The simulated results of the carotid artery and the iliac artery show in good accordance with the measured results.

  • This study was performed in a 38-year-old Mongolian pine (Pinus sylvestris L. var. mongolica Litvin) plantation in northeast China. Data were collected from 5 sample trees with different canopy position ranging in DBH from 14.6 cm to 23.8 cm. Sawn speciments that included the biggest knot were taken from the stem below the living crown. Number and distribution of knots per whorl below the living crown were studied by relative height below living crown (RHBC). A linear model expressed as function of whorl age (AGE), whorl height ($H_k$) and the stem diameter at which the whorl was located ($D_k$) was developed to predict the knot diameter and angle. The number of annual rings in four periods and the width of respective zone alone stem were used as dependant variables to analyze the knot develop phases. In average, the number of years from branch birth to ceased forming rings was 7.8, the branches remained alive for 4.2 years without forming annual rings, and branches were occluded 14.4 years after their death. These results can provide abundance branch and knot information so as to describe current and past tree growth dynamic of Mongolian pine plantation.
