Cloud computing platform is a shared pool of resources and services with various kind of models delivered to the customers through the Internet. The methods include an on-demand dynamically-scalable form charged using a pay-per-use model. The main problem with this model is the allocation of resource in dynamic. In this paper, we have proposed a mechanism to optimize the resource provisioning task by reducing the job completion time while, minimizing the associated cost. We present the Cooperative Agents Dynamic Resource Allocation and Monitoring in Cloud Computing CADRAM system, which includes more than one agent in order to manage and observe resource provided by the service provider while considering the Clients' quality of service (QoS) requirements as defined in the service-level agreement (SLA). Moreover, CADRAM contains a new Virtual Machine (VM) selection algorithm called the Node Failure Discovery (NFD) algorithm. The performance of the CADRAM system is evaluated using the CloudSim tool. The results illustrated that CADRAM system increases resource utilization and decreases power consumption while avoiding SLA violations.

This study reported the novel use of fallen leaf extract as a microbial culture media for the first time. Extract from hardwood fallen leaves (HLE) was prepared under high temperature and pressure conditions and then supplemented with specific nutrients. The growth of four industrially significant prokaryotes on the HLE-based media was measured and compared with that on enriched media (Luria-Bertani, LB). Notably, supplementing HLE with only 0.5 g of yeast extract and 1 g tryptone per liter showed a similar growth rate of Pseudomonas chlororaphis compared to standard LB media. Overall, the HLE media developed in this study offers a sustainable and cost-effective approach to microbial media production, capitalizing on the valorization of forest waste.

본 연구는 가로수 관리의 합리적인 표준품셈 항목 및 적정 단가 설정을 통한 고품질 가로수 관리의 기초자료 제공을 목적으로 하였다. 현재 가로수 관리항목은 가로수 전정을 제외하고, 일반 조경수 품셈을 가로수 관리 품셈으로 활용하고 있다. 또한 한국전력공사에서는 표준전기품셈의 가지치기 항목을 적용하여 표준품셈 대비 강전정의 경우 평균 51%, 약전정의 경우 평균 39% 낮은 단가로 사업을 수행하고 있다. 이는 가로수 관리 품질을 유지하거나 향상시킬 수 없는 한계로 판단되었으며, 가로수 관리의 적정 단가 기준이 필요함을 뜻한다. 가로수 관리 품셈을 개선하기 위해 현업에서 투입되는 비용을 검토할 필요가 있었다. 하지만 국내의 조경 분야 실적공사비에 대한 데이터의 부재로 미국 RSMeans Building Construction Cost Data(RSMeans)의 세부항목을 검토하였다. RSMeans란 1942년부터 누적된 미국의 실적기반 적산방식으로 주로 연방교통부와 각 주정부의 도로국을 중심으로 공사비를 산정하는 데이터베이스이다. RSMeans는 지속적인 신기술 도입과 노동 및 재료비용의 계속된 변경을 반영하기 위해 매해 건설제품과 방법을 찾고 수량화하며, 생산성 비율을 조정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 조경 관리 방법과 큰 차이가 없는 RSMeans의 세부항목과 현행 인건비 등을 적용하여 실적공사비를 산출하였다. 적용 결과 표준품셈은 실적공사비와 비교하면 가로수 전지의 강전정의 경우 107%로의 양호한 비율이었지만, 약전정은 59%로 과소 설계가 되어 있었다. 또한, 관목 전정은 82%, 제초는 92%, 교목 시비는 87%, 방풍벽 설치는 91% 수준으로 과소 설계되어 있었다. 살수차 관수와 약제 살포는 각각 118%와 124%의 비율로 실적공사비와 비교하면 과대 설계된 부분도 확인하였다. 과소평가된 항목들은 가로수의 특수성으로 도로 안전통제 등으로 인건비 및 장비의 투입비 상승이 주요 원인으로 판단되었다. 향후 표준품셈의 조경 유지 관리항목에 일반 조경수뿐만 아니라 가로수에 관한 항목 추가가 필요하다.

The feed resource for animals is a major cost determinant for profitability in livestock production enterprises, and thus any effort at improving the efficiency of feed use will help to reduce feed cost. Feed conversion ratio, expressed as feed inputs per unit output, is a traditional measure of efficiency that has significant phenotypic and genetic correlations with feed intake and growth traits. The use of ratio traits for genetic selection may cause problems associated with prediction of change in the component traits in future generations. Residual feed intake, a linear index, is a trait derived from the difference between actual feed intake and that predicted on the basis of the requirements for maintenance of body weight and production. Considerable genetic variation exists in residual feed intake for cattle and pigs, which should respond to selection. Phenotypic independence of phenotypic residual feed intake with body weight and weight gain can be obligatory. Genetic residual feed intake is genetically independent of its component traits (body weight and weight gain). Genetic correlations of residual feed intake with daily feed intake and feed conversion efficiency have been strong and positive in both cattle and pigs. Residual feed intake is favorably genetically correlated with eye muscle area and carcass weight in cattle and with eye muscle area and backfat in pigs. Selection to reduce residual feed intake (excessive intake of feed) will improve the efficiency of feed and most of the economically important carcass traits in cattle and pigs. Therefore, residual feed intake can be used to replace traditional feed conversion ratio as a selection criterion of feed efficiency in breeding programs. However, further studies are required on the variation of residual feed intake during different developmental stage of production.

Recently there is increasing interest in the use of structure activity relationships for predicting the biological activity of chemicals. The reasons for the interest include the decrease cost and time per chemical as compared with animal or cell system for identifying toxicological effects of chemicals and the reduction in the use of animals for toxicological testing. This study is to test the validity of the mutagenicity data generated from QSAR (Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship) program. Thirty chemicals, which had been evaluated by Ames test during 1997-1999, were assessed with TOPKAT QSAR mutagenicity prediction module. Among 30chemicals experimented, 28 were negative and 2 were positive for Ames test. On the contrary, 23 chemicals showed the high confidence level indicating high prediction rate in mutagenicity evaluation, and 7 chemicals showed the lsow to moderate confidence level indicating low prediction in mutagenicity evaluation. Overall mutagenicity prediction rate was 77% (23/30). The prediction rates for non-mutagenic chemicals were 79% (22/28) and mutagenic chemicals were 50% (1/2). QSAR could be a useful tool in providing toxicological data for newly introduced chemicals or in furnishing data for MSDS or in determining the dose in toxicity testing for chemicals with no known toxicological data.

Gastrointestinal (GI) medications have been administered to many patients without any gastrointestinal diseases. The objectives of this study were to evaluate use of GI drugs and assess related factors. Medical records of 600 outpatients were reviewed from January 1997 to December 1997 at A Hospital, Kyunggi-do, Korea. Fifty patients every month among all outpatients were randomly selected up to total 600 patients. Surgical patients, visitors for regular health examination and inpatients were excluded. GI symptoms included nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dyspepsia, constipation, heartburn, dysphagia and abdominal pain. The prescribed gastrointestinal drugs were antacids. $H_2$-antagonist, sucralfate, cisapride, omeprazole, laxatives, digestive enzymes and antidiarrheal agents. Patients without GI symptoms were 348 out of 600 outpatients who were screened. Two hundred and eighty two of 348 patients $(81\%)$ were given GI drugs though they did not have any GI symptoms. There were no differences in regard to sex and age of patients. Most of medical departments prescribed gastrointestinal drugs for these patients. The most frequently prescribed drugs were in order of digestive enzyme, antacids and $H_2$-antagonists. In view of economic aspects, patients paid 12.28 percents of total cost per prescription for unnecessary medicines. The medical practice of prescribing GI drugs should be assessed to define appropriate subgroups to have benefits with prophylactic administration and to reduce adverse effects caused by drug interactions. Pharmacists would have a significant role to promote rational drug therapy.
