고전력 펄스 전원공급장치를 이용한 마그네트론 스퍼터링(high-power impulse magnetron sputtering; HiPIMS)과 직류(direct current; DC) 전원공급장치를 이용한 마그네트론 스퍼터링(DC 스퍼터링)을 이용하여 제조한 티타늄 질화물(titanium nitride; TiN) 박막의 특성을 비교하였다. HiPIMS와 DC 스퍼터링 공정 중에 빗각증착을 적용하여 TiN 박막의 미세구조와 기계적 특성의 변화를 확인하였다. TiN 박막을 코팅하기 위한 기판으로 스테인리스 강판(SUS304)과 초경(cemented carbide; WC-10wt.%Co)을 사용하였다. 기판은 알코올과 아세톤으로 초음파 처리를 실시하여 기판 표면의 불순물을 제거하였다. 기판 청정 후 진공용기 내부의 기판홀더에 기판을 장착하고 $2.0{\times}10^{-5}torr$의 기본 압력까지 진공배기를 실시하였다. 진공 용기의 압력이 기본 압력에 도달하면 아르곤(Ar) 가스를 진공용기 내부로 ${\sim}10^{-2}torr$의 압력으로 주입하고 기판홀더에 라디오 주파수(radio frequency; rf) 전원공급장치를 이용하여 - 800 V의 전압을 인가하여 글로우 방전을 발생시켜 30 분간 기판 표면의 산화막을 제거하는 기판청정을 실시하였다. 기판청정이 완료되면 기본 압력까지 진공배기를 실시하고 Ar과 질소($N_2$)의 혼합 가스를 진공용기 내부로 ${\sim}10^{-3}torr$의 압력으로 주입하여 HiPIMS와 DC 스퍼터링으로 TiN 박막 제조를 실시하였다. 빗각의 크기는 $45^{\circ}$와 $-45^{\circ}$이었다. 제조된 TiN 박막은 주사전자 현미경, 비커스 경도 측정기 그리고 X-선 회절 분석기를 이용하여 특성을 분석하였다. HiPIMS로 제조한 TiN 박막은 기판 전압을 인가하지 않아도 색상이 노란색을 보이지만, DC 스퍼터링으로 제조한 TiN 박막은 기판 전압을 인가하지 않으면 노란색을 보이지 않고 어두운 갈색에 가까운 색을 보였다. TiN 박막의 경도는 HiPIMS로 제조한 TiN 박막이 DC 스퍼터링으로 제조한 TiN 박막보다 높았다. 이러한 TiN 박막의 특성 차이는 DC 스퍼터링과 비교하여 높은 HiPIMS의 이온화율에 의한 결과로 판단된다. 빗각을 적용한 TiN 박막은 미세구조 변화를 보였으며 이러한 미세구조 변화는 TiN 박막의 특성에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.

Component Based Development (CBD) is appealing as a technology to improve the productivity of software development through component reuse. Model Driven Architecture (MDA) is a new development paradigm which automatically generates application by transforming design models incrementally. Since both reusability of CBD and model transformation of MDA increase software productivity. integration of two technologies is desirable. To enable this technology integration, we need to devise a UML profile for specifying component design as a PIM. In this paper, we first define a meta-model for components, and propose a UML profile which is used to specify elements of component design as PIM. Since the proposed profile is based on Meta Object Facility (MOF) from which is MDA is derived, it is consistent and compatible with existing MDA methods and tools.

A local radial point interpolation method (LRPIM) based on local residual formulation is presented and applied to solid mechanics in this paper. In LRPIM, the trial function is constructed by the radial point interpolation method (PIM) and establishes discrete equations through a local residual formulation, which can be carried out nodes by nodes. Therefore, element connectivity for trial function and background mesh for integration is not necessary. Radial PIM is used for interpolation so that singularity in polynomial PIM may be avoided. Essential boundary conditions can be imposed by a straightforward and effective manner due to its Delta properties. Moreover, the approximation quality of the radial PIM is evaluated by the surface fitting of given functions. Numerical performance for this LRPIM method is further studied through several numerical examples of solid mechanics.

This paper proposes a group key management protocol for a secure of all the multcast user in PIM-SM multicast group communication. Each subgroup manager gives a secure key to it's own transmitter and the transmitter compress the data with it's own secure key from the subgroup manager, Before the transmitter send the data to receiver, the transmitter prepares to encrypt a user's service by sending a encryption key to the receiver though the secure channel. after checking the user's validity through the secure channel, As the transmitter sending a data after then, the architecture is designed that the receiver will decode the received data with the transmitter's group key, Therefore, transmission time is shortened because there is no need to data translation by the group key on data sending and the data transmition is possible without new key distribution at path change to shortest path of the router characteristic.

The most important reason mentioned for the early discontinuation of breast feeding and introduction of supplementary bottles is Perceived Insufficient Milk (PIM), which is relatively common in women. This is of public health concern because the use of breast milk substitutes increases the risk of morbidity and mortality among infants in developing countries and shortens birth intervals. Thus, a literary search in classical text for aetiopathogenesis, symptoms and treatment of PIM were appraised to implement in contemporary era. The classical Unani texts viz., Al Qanon fit Tib (Canon of Medicine), Al Hawi (Continens Liber), Zakheera Kharzam Shahi, Tarjuma Kamilus Sana, Tibbe Akbar, Akseer Azam, and Kitabul Kulliyat were reviewed. Further certain galactogogue herbs which are in use since antiquity such as fenugreek, cotton seeds, cumin, asparagus, black cumin etc were explored in different search engines on website for proven galactogogue activity. The causes of PIM are abnormal temperament of body or breast, anaemia, anxiety, depression, malnutrition etc. The principle treatment is treating the cause viz., the temperament is corrected by diet and drugs in abnormal temperament, elimination of humour is required in dominance of humour etc. The aforementioned drugs are proven scientifically for their galactogogue activity. The classical texts are having valuable information regarding PIM, which can be implemented in present era. Aforementioned Unani drugs are proven scientifically for with their galactogogue effect, however, clinical trials are scarce. Therefore, further randomized controlled clinical trials are recommended.

Various approaches have been made for dividing images in content-based image retrieval. One of them defined five regions for images and conducted a series of experiments. A major assumption of the experiment is that the center regions of images are very important. It is based on the observation that meaningful objects are usually located in the center region of images. From this point of view, we tried to test if the assumptions is objectively valid by calculating and comparing PIM(Picture Information Measure) entropies of image regions proposed by S.K Chang. The experimental results showed that there were statistical PIM differences between the center and other regions.

The combustion process within a porous inert medium (PIM) burner is numerical studied. A detailed chemical reaction scheme including thermal and prompt NO$_{x}$ reactions is used to predict the formation and destruction of pollutants such as NO$_{x}$ and CO. The reaction paths for NO$_{x}$ formation are divided to quantify the amount of NO$_{x}$ formed through thermal NO$_{x}$ reaction or through prompt NO$_{x}$ reaction. Emission index is calculated to compare the actual mass of NO$_{x}$ or CO produced through the combustion of unit mass of fuel. It is found NO formation in PIM burner is confined in flame zone and formation is suppressed due to heat loss at down-stream of the flame. Higher production of NO through prompt NO reaction path is observed due to the higher concentration of fuel derivative species and its higher diffusion at flame front. For all equivalence ratios, CO emission within PIM burner is lower than that from the one-dimensional freely-propagating flame. PIM burner flame has better NO$_{x}$ emission index from .psi. = 0.75 to .psi. = 1.1. to .psi. = 1.1.

The beam structure with breathing cracks subjected to harmonic excitations was modeled by FEM based on Euler-Bernoulli theory, and a piecewise dynamical system was deduced. The precise integration method (PIM) was employed to propose an algorithm for analyzing the dynamic responses of the deduced system. This system was first divided into linear sub-systems, between which there are switching points resulted from the breathing cracks. The inhomogeneous terms due to the external excitations were tackled by introducing auxiliary variables to express the harmonic functions, hence the sub-systems are homogeneous. The PIM was then applied to solve the homogeneous sub-systems one by one. During the procedures, a predictor-corrector algorithm was presented to determine the switching points accurately. The presented method can provide solutions with an accuracy to a magnitude of $10^{-12}$ compared with exact solutions obtained by the theories of ordinary differential equations. The PIM results are much more accurate than Newmark ones with the same time step. Moreover, it is found that the PIM can maintain a high level of accuracy even when the time step increases within a relatively wide range.

This study aimed to evaluate the patterns of inappropriate medication use and inappropriate dosage in elderly patients in Korea. A retrospective study was performed for the elderly 65 years or older admitted from January 2007 to December 2007 in a medical center, Seoul, Korea. Potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) use in the elderly was evaluated using Beers criteria. Eighteen drugs out of Beers criteria were included in the formulary of the institute. Inappropriate dosage was set using Beers criteria, CMS (the Centers for Medicare& Medicaid Services) guideline, Geriatric Dosage Handbook. As results, the patients with PIM were 2,172 during the study period. The commonly used inappropriate medications were drugs for the nervous system (n=1237, 44.78%), the alimentary System (n=663, 24.54%) and the cardiovascular system (n=494, 18.28%). The elderly patients with prescription of inappropriate dosage were 10% out of patients with PIMs. The commonly inappropriate dosage drugs were digoxin (n=75, 27.27%), diazepam (n=70, 22.55%) and ferrous sulfate (n=66, 24.00%). Logistic regression analysis showed the number of PIM, days of hospital stay as predictors related to inappropriate dosage use. In conclusion, CNS drugs were frequently prescribed as PIM and inappropriate dosages were identified. It is needed to develop a means of decreasing adverse drug events in elderly.
