As the industry has been growing rapidly, the problem of environmental pollution has been on the rise seriously. In this paper, we used solar cells at the power supply unit of the equipment, which has been sold at present, for measuring the quality of water in order to complement the problem. Also, to get rid of the inconvenience that the examiners must go the job site, check and collect the polluted water we set the goal at designing the water pollution alarm system which measures the quality of water automatically using one-chip microprocessor and materializing the program.

Halide perovskites are promising photovoltaic materials due to their excellent optoelectronic properties like high absorption coefficient, low exciton binding energy and long diffusion length, and single-junction solar cells consisting of them have shown a high certified efficiency of 25.2%. Despite of high efficiency, perovskite photovoltaics show poor stability under actual operational condition, which is the mostly critical obstacle for commercialization. Given that the stability of the perovskite devices is significantly affected by charge-transporting layers, the use of inorganic charge-transporting layers with better intrinsic stability than the organic counterparts must be beneficial to the enhanced device reliability. In this review article, we summarized a number of studies on the inorganic charge-transporting layers of the perovskite solar cells, especially focusing on their effects on the enhanced device reliability.

The self-refresh mode was introduced as method to reduce power dissipation in DRAM. Because the data retention time of DRAM cell decreases as the ambient temperature rises, the internal period in self-refresh mode must be limited by retention capability at the highest temperature in DRAM specification. Because of this, at room temperature($25^{\circ}C$) unnecessary power dissipation happens, If the period of self-refresh could be modulated as temperature, it is possible to reduce the self-refresh current. In this paper, new temperature detector circuit is suggested as this purpose.

This paper presents handover algorithm method using fuzzy rules and neura1 network. In future mobile communication systems, the amount of call requests over a region will increase dramatically. This problem has to be solved by decreasing the cell size. But, this method lets a mobile station switch the a base station at a higher rate. In order to maintain better mobile communication system in a micro or pico cellular system, better handover algorithm must be devoloped. In this paper, we propose a handover algorithm which is based on the fuzzy teory that is applied to make rules with the parameters and neural network that is to learn rules. This new handover algorithm is tested by computer simulation and compared with the conventional algorithms.

A mobile terminal will expect a number of handoffs within its call duration. In the event of a mobile call, when a mobile node moves from one cell to another, it should connect to another access point within its range. In case there is a lack of support of its own network, it must changeover to another base station. In the event of moving on to another network, quality of service parameters need to be considered. In our study we have used the Markov decision process approach for a seamless handoff as it gives the optimum results for selecting a network when compared to other multiple attribute decision making processes. We have used the network cost function for selecting the network for handoff and the connection reward function, which is based on the values of the quality of service parameters. We have also examined the constant bit rate and transmission control protocol packet delivery ratio. We used the policy iteration algorithm for determining the optimal policy. Our enhanced handoff algorithm outperforms other previous multiple attribute decision making methods.

Sleeve lobectomy for bronchogenic carcinoma is an alternative to pneumonectomy. The extent and location of the tumor must be such that a sleeve procedure is feasible. The conservation of lung tissue benefits both compromised and uncompromised patients. From August 1988 to March 1989, five patients underwent sleeve lobectomy for bronchogenic carcinoma of the lung. The patients included four males and one female ranging in age from 52 years to 66 years. All patients were diagnosed as having squamous cell carcinoma. Operative procedures were right upper sleeve lobectomy in four cases and left upper sleeve lobectomy with pulmonary angioplasty in one case. Complications developed in one patient. An asthmatic attack necessitated ventilator support for one day. Bronchoscopic examinations were performed at two weeks and three months postoperatively in four patients. Anastomosis sites on all patients were intact, but in one case, nodules were noted. Pulmonary function tests were also checked at three months postoperatively, and showed good results. The reimplanted lobe or lobes contribute significantly to the overall remaining lung function. All patients are being followed up with satisfactory results, except one case of suspected local tumor recurrence. We think, therefore, that sleeve lobectomy is a safe and adequate procedure for patients with resectable lung cancer.

Tubulin is synthesized in the cell body and must be delivered to the axon to support axonal growth. However, the exact form in which these proteins, in particular tubulin, move within the axon remains contentious. According to the "polymer transport model", tubulin is transported in the form of microtubules. In an alternative hypothesis, the "short oligomer transport model", tubulin is added to existing, stationary microtubules along the axon. In this study, we measured the translocation of microtubule plus ends in soma segments, the middle of axonal shafts and the growth cone areas, by expressing GFP-EB3 in cultured Xenopus embryonic spinal neurons. We found that none of the microtubules in the three compartments were transported rapidly as would be expected from the polymer transport model. These results suggest that microtubules are stationary in most segments of the axon, thus supporting the model according to which tubulin is transported in nonpolymeric form in rapidly growing Xenopus neurons.

The pressure suppression pool of BWR(Boiling Water Reactor) is subjected to hydrodynamic impact in the event of a LOCA(Loss of Coolant Accident). The pressure increase in the reactor dry cell would force the existing water of a vent pipe into the suppression pool. When the water is ejected through the pipe opening into the suppression pool, an abrupt downward force is transmitted to the suppression pool floor. Consequently, many structures installed within the pool must be able to withstand these forces. In order to determine the optimum safe locations of the pool structures, numerical analysis have been carried out to investigate the hydrodynamic behavior of the water jet. In the present analysis, a two-dimensional numerical model is utilized to solve transient flow equations.

Although lobectomy remains the gold-standard surgical treatment for non-small-cell lung cancer, the frequency of thoracoscopic segmentectomy is increasing. Multiple factors must be considered in the choice of the procedure, ranging from adequate surgical planning or simulation, tumor localization, and identification of the intersegmental plane to severing the intersegmental plane to achieve an oncologically safe surgical margin with no or minimal manual palpation and different landmarks. In this article, we present an overview of methods for each procedural step of thoracoscopic segmentectomy, from preoperative planning to division of the intersegmental plane.
