In this paper we deals with Leibniz's definition of infinite and infinitely small quantities, infinite quantities and theory of quantified indivisibles in comparison with Galileo's concept of indivisibles. Leibniz developed 'method of indivisible' in order to introduce the integrability of continuous functions. also we deals with this demonstration, with Leibniz's rules of arithmetic of infinitely small and infinite quantities.

Given a tree structured network in which each node has its own demand and also stands for a candidate location of a potential facility, such as plant or warehouse, a capacitated facility location problem on the network (CFLPOT) is to decide capacitated facility locations so that the total demand occurred on the network can be satisfied from those facilities with the minimum cost. In this paper, we first introduce a mixed integer programming formulation for CFLPOT with two additional assumptions, the indivisible demand assumption and the contiguity assumption and then show that it can be reformulated as a tree partitioning problem with an exponential number of variables. We then show that it can be solved in O($n^2b$) time by utilizing the limited column generation method developed by Shaw (1993), where n is the total number of nodes in the network and b is the maximum facility capacity. We also develop a depth-first dynamic programming algorithm with a running time of O(nb) for finding the locally maximal reduced cost which plays an important role in the limited column generation method. Finally, we implement our algorithms on a set of randomly generated problems and report the computational results.

In order to approach the nursing care of clients who are using oriental medicine and to understand the perception of the client who uses oriental medicine practices and the need to develop a model of nursing related to oriental medicine it is important to examine the major nursing concepts as they are found in oriental medicine and as they are differently defined according to the basic thought, theory and philosophical perspectives between East and West. Oriental medicine developed based on Sung Confucianism the teachings of Chut-zu, especially Tai-Chi-Tu Shuo and energy thought which are similar to traditional Korean Sasang Constitutional medicine. The basic theory on which oriental medicine is build is the theory of the five elements of Yin / Eum-Yang Theory(cosmic dual forces) and Meridian Theory. The most important attribute of Yin Yang is the concept of duality, confrontation and dependence, within Yin Yang but which do not exist separately. That is, the universe is a vast, indivisible entity within which all things exist in harmonious interdependence and balance. Harmony is achieved only when the two primorial forces, Yin and Yang, are brought into perfect balance. Each is contained within the other and there is a continuing interchange between the two. This also applies to the human body including human health which is defined as balanced harmony. The most universal connection of Yin and Yang is found in the universe where the five elements of life, fire, water, earth, wood and metal can be explained as having either Yin or Yang and therefore being in a state of connectedness but systematically circulating between the two, that is essentalilly one (the control of the unified ) or as coexistant poles of individual wholes (the pluralism of Yin Yang Theory) so that it is all unified(balanced) in the Great Absoulte. Human beings also maintain a balance of Yin and Yang in the five elements and this relationship is very important in approaching ·oriental medicine, The meridians are the channels in the body through which the life force flow throughout the body. In oriental medicine the meridians are seen as the railroad, the acupuncture points on the meridians as the stations and energy as the train. In the normal healthy organism, all are maintained in balance and in a contiuous circulation of energy. illness is the result of the energy flow becoming disarranged. Although practitioners of oriental medicine approach the client differently than do practitioners of Western medicine and their method of examining the patient is different, the basic objectives of the examination are the same for practitioners of both types of medicine. Therefore if each could be used to supplement the defiencies in the other and achieve a harmonious cooperation between the two, a higher level of care which is culturally appropriate to korean culture could be achieved. The traditional korean concept of health is a naturalistic view which emphasizes being in harmony with nature. Any manifestation of disease is considered a sign that the body is in a state of disequilibrium and is thus no longer in harmony with the universe. The wholistic view of the world held by practitioners of oriental medicine can be used by nursing in the development of a world view of nursing in which the human being is seen within the macrocosm as part of the natural phenomenon of the universe and but also as a microcosm of the universe, a universe which is a vast and indivisible entity within which all things exist in harmonious interdependence and balance. Interaction between human beings and their environment and the relationship of this interaction to health are concepts that are also found in nursing. Nursing views human brings, not as an accumulation of separate cells and organs but, as unified wholes interacted in very close relationship nth their environment. Nursing also maintains a view of human beings in which emphasis is placed on the role of the mind in explaining the concepts of harmony and balance in health. Although there are differences between oriental medicine and nursing in approaches to clients, the basic point of view and philosophy have many fundamental similarites. An understanding of the basic thought and philosophy of oriental medicine if applied to nursing, would allow for the development, not only of nursing related to oriental medicine, but of a nursing theory appropriate to the korean context.

It is necessary to develop a rational method for evaluating the safety of bridges for the passage of inseparable crane vehicles exceeding the limit weight. In this study, the same method applied to the development of the recently introduced reliability-based highway bridge design code - limit state design method is applied to the calibration of the live load factor for the crane vehicle. Structural analysis was performed on the concrete bridge and the required strengths of the previous design code, the current design code and AASHTO LRFD were compared. When comparing the unfactored live load effect, the live load of the crane was greater than that of the current and previous design code. When comparing the required strength by applying the calibrated live load factor, the previous design code demands the largest strength and the current design code and the crane live load effect yields similar value. The results of safety evaluation of the actual bridges on the candidate route for the crane passage secured the same reliability as the target reliability index required by the design code and the strength of the cross section of the actual bridge is calculated greater than the required strength for the passage of the crane, which confirms the safety for the passage of the crane.

With the development of the information technology in recent years, the innovation of multimedia information technology also has been accelerated. Many fields of the digital image processing technologies as image data compression, recognition. restoration, etc. are now being studied actively. When transmitting and saving digital images, noise would be made, and we are using the image filters to remove the noise. The Image Filter used Digital Image Process basically has a two-dimensional structure. There are two methods of the filter's creation - One is reiterating one dimension, and the other is using an indivisible two-dimension image filter. The space domain method using mask is the latter one. That is inserting the value-multiplied pixels values faced each other when the two-dimension filter overlapped on input image- to the filter value's center position and the same position in the image. The image filter is being used widely along with one-dimension filter, according each noise. Most people are using various median filters to remove the impulse noise. However, in this paper, I suggested a powerful switching median filter and compared with conventional method for verification.
