Omega-shaped-gate (OSG) nanowire-based field effect transistors (FETs) have been attracted recently attention due to their highdevice performance expected from theoretical simulations among nanowire-based FETs with other gate geometries. OSG FETs with the channels of ZnO nanowires were successfully fabricated in this study with photolithographic processes. In the OSG FETs fabricated on oxidized Si substrates, the channels of ZnO nanowires with diameters of about 60 nm are coated surroundingly by $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as gate dielectrics with atomic layer deposition. About 80 % of the surfaces of the nanowires coated with $Al_{2}O_{3}$ is covered with gate metal to form OSG FETs. A representative OSG FET fabricated in this study exhibits a mobility of 98.9 $cm^{2}/Vs$, a peak transconductance of 0.4 ${\mu}S$, and an Ion/Ioff ratio of $10^6$ the value of the Ion/Ioff ratio obtained from this OSG FET is the highest among nanowire-based FETs, to our knowledge. Its mobility, peak transconductance, and Ion/Ioff ratio arc remarkably enhanced by 11.5, 32, and $10^6$ times, respectively, compared with a back-gate FET with the same ZnO nanowire channel as utilized in the OSG FET.

In this paper, a conceptual framework describing the dynamics of click and mortar businesses is provided. It directs our attention to the many potential sources of synergy that are available to firms that choose to integrate e-commerce with their existing traditional forms of business. It further emphasizes the many actions that firms can take to minimize channel conflicts and help achieve the benefits of synergy. Finally, it describes four categories of synergy-related benefits from the integration of e-commerce with traditional businesses, including potential cost saving, gains due to enhanced differentiation, improved trust, and potential extensions into new markets. The utility of the framework was demonstrated using the case of an electronics retailer that has chosen to tightly integrate its large chain of retail stores with its Web-based electronic store. The framework was also used to develop a series of propositions that can guide future empirical research. The discussion points to the need to develop new types of metrics to better judge the contributions of e-commerce channels, and provides some guidance for future empirical research that can test whether, and under what conditions, integrated click and mortar business models work well. Thus, the purpose of this study is to present the combining physical and virtual presence in e-commerce.

Network coding was proposed to increase the achievable throughput of multicast in a network. Recently, combining network coding into user cooperation has attracted research attention. For cooperative transmission schemes with network coding, users combine their own and their partners messages by network coding. In previous works, it was shown that adaptive DF with network coding can achieve diversity gain and additional throughput gain. In this paper, to improve performance of conventional protocols and maximize advantage of using network coding, we propose a new network coding based user cooperation scheme which uses adaptively amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward according to interuser channel status. We derive outage probability bound of proposed scheme and prove that it has full diversity order in the high SNR regime. Moreover, based on the outage bound, we compute optimal power allocation for the proposed scheme.

Location based services (LBSs) have drawn huge attention as the growing number mobile devices and wireless technology demand more pervasive information access. In LBSs, Constraint nearest neighbor queries are one of the important queries of human to fulfill his desired quickly through wireless technology. We propose new query processing of constrained nearest neighbor query on the air to support mobile clients which demand optimal uses of wireless broadcast channel and using minimum battery power of client. First we proposed NN query processing with constrained region and then explain the novel NN query processing with various types of constraints. We have proposed novel algorithms to support Constrained Nearest Neighbor queries on the air based on Distributed Spatial Index and Bitmap-based Spatial Index.

Recently, smart devices for various services have been developed using converged telecommunications, and the markets for near field communication (NFC) mobile services is expected to grow rapidly. In particular, the realization of mobile NFC payment services is expected to go commercial, and it is widely attracting attention both on a domestic and global level. However, this realization would increase privacy infringement, as personal information is extensively used in the NFC technology. One example of such privacy infringement would be the case of the Google wallet service. In this paper, we propose an mutual authentication scheme based on NTRU for secure channel in OTA and an zero-knowledge proof scheme NTRU based on for protecting user information in NFC mobile payment systems without directly using private financial information of the user.

Nanowire-based field-effect transistors (FETs) decorated with nanoparticles have been greatly paid attention as nonvolatile memory devices of next generation due to their excellent transportation ability of charge carriers in the channel and outstanding capability of charge trapping in the floating gate. In this work, top-gate single ZnO nanowire-based FETs with and without Au nanoparticles were fabricated and their memory effects were characterized. Using thermal evaporation and rapid thermal annealing processes, Au nanoparticles were formed on an $Al_2O_3$ layer which was semi cylindrically coated on a single ZnO nanowire. The family of $I_{DS}-V_{GS}$ curves for the double sweep of the gate voltage at $V_{DS}$ = 1 V was obtained. The device decorated with nanoparticles shows giant hysterisis loops with ${\Delta}V_{th}$ = 2 V, indicating a significant charge storage effect. Note that the hysterisis loops are clockwise which result from the tunneling of the charge carriers from the nanowire into the nanoparticles. On the other hand, the device without nanoparticles shows a negligible countclockwise hysterisis loop which reveals that the influence of oxide trap charges or mobile ions is negligible. Therefore, the charge storage effect mainly comes from the nanoparticles decorated on the nanowire, which obviously demonstrates that the top-gate single ZnO nanowire-based FETs decorated with Au nanoparticles are the good candidate for the application in the nonvolatile memory devices of next generation.

The LiDAR sensor is attracting attention as a key sensor for autonomous driving vehicle. LiDAR sensor provides measured three-dimensional lengths within range using LASER. However, as much data is provided to the external system, it is difficult to process such data in an external system or processor of the vehicle. To resolve these issues, we develop integrated processing system for LiDAR sensor. The system is configured that client receives data from LiDAR sensor and processes data, server gathers data from clients and transmits integrated data in real-time. The test was carried out to ensure real-time processing of the system by changing the data acquisition, processing method and process driving method of process. As a result of the experiment, when receiving data from four LiDAR sensors, client and server process was operated using background or multi-core processing, the system response time of each client was about 13.2 ms and the server was about 12.6 ms.

Aurora kinases inhibitors, including ZM447439 (ZM), which suppress cell division, have attracted a great deal of attention as potential novel anti-cancer drugs. Several recent studies have confirmed the anti-cancer effects of ZM in various cancer cell lines. However, there have been no studies regarding the cardiac safety of this agent. We performed several cytotoxicity, invasion and migration assays to examine the anti-cancer effects of ZM. To evaluate the potential effects of ZM on cardiac repolarisation, whole-cell patch-clamp experiments were performed with human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) and cells with heterogeneous cardiac ion channel expression. We also conducted a contractility assay with rat ventricular myocytes to determine the effects of ZM on myocardial contraction and/or relaxation. In tests to determine in vitro efficacy, ZM inhibited the proliferation of A549, H1299 (lung cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer) and HepG2 (hepatoma) cell lines with $IC_{50}$ in the submicromolar range, and attenuated the invasive and metastatic capacity of A549 cells. In cardiac toxicity testing, ZM did not significantly affect $I_{Na}$, $I_{Ks}$ or $I_{K1}$, but decreased $I_{hERG}$ in a dose-dependent manner ($IC_{50}$: $6.53{\mu}M$). In action potential (AP) assay using hiPSC-CMs, ZM did not induce any changes in AP parameters up to $3{\mu}M$, but it at $10{\mu}M$ induced prolongation of AP duration. In summary, ZM showed potent broad-spectrum anti-tumor activity, but relatively low levels of cardiac side effects compared to the effective doses to tumor. Therefore, ZM has a potential to be a candidate as an anti-cancer with low cardiac toxicity.

The cosmetic industry is technology-intensive in the field of fine chemistry and continues to grow globally. The functional aspects have been mainly emphasized in the past to increase the market share in these cosmetics industries. Recently, however, efforts have been made to attract the attention of consumers to the visual effects as well as the excellent performance of cosmetics at home and abroad. Accordingly, cosmetic manufacturers are trying various technologies that encapsulate the cosmetic emulsion and modify the shape, color, and texture of the emulsion capsule. The basic and easiest method of encapsulating emulsion is dropping the emulsion through the nozzle from emulsion storage. On the other hand, the existing method of encapsulating emulsion has a limit in reducing the size of the capsule. In this study, the limit was shown by theory and numerical analysis method, and the emulsion encapsulation phenomena occurring in the micro-channel were studied to apply microfluidics as an alternative.

With the advent of the "age of video" due to the simplification of video content production and the convenience of broadcasting channel operation, review videos on various products are drawing attention. We proposes RASIA, an integrated reliability analysis system based on verbal and nonverbal sentiment analysis of review videos. RASIA extracts and quantifies each emotional value obtained through language sentiment analysis and facial analysis of the reviewer in the video. Subsequently, we conduct an integrated reliability analysis of standardized verbal and nonverbal sentimental values. RASIA provide an new objective indicator to evaluate the reliability of the review video.
