Dielectrophoresis has received considerable attention for separating nanotubes according to electronic types. Here we examine the effects of surface conductivity of semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT), induced by ionic surfactants, on the sign of dielectrophoretic force. The crossover frequency of semiconducting SWNT increases rapidly as the conductivity ratio between the particle and medium increases, leading to an incomplete separation of ionic surfactant suspended SWNT at an electric field frequency of 10 MHz. The surface charge of SWNT is neutralized by an equimolar mixture of anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and cationic surfactant cetyltrimenthylammonium bromide (CTAB), resulting in negative dielectrophoresis of semiconducting species at 10 MHz. A comparative Raman spectroscopy study shows a nearly complete separation of metallic SWNT.

This document outlines a new color image encryption technology development. After splitting the original image into 240-bit blocks and modifying the first block by an initialization vector, an improved Feistel circuit is applied, sponsored by a genetic crossover operator and then strong chaining between the encrypted block and the next clear block is attached to set up the confusion-diffusion and heighten the avalanche effect, which protects the system from any known attack. Simulations carried out on a large database of color images of different sizes and formats prove the robustness of such a system.

Parallel Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are developed to solve a single machine n-job scheduling problem which is to minimize the sum of absolute deviations of completion times from a common due date. (0, 1) binary scheme is employed to represent the n-job schedule. Two selection methods, best individual selection and simple selection are examined. The effect of crossover operator, due date adjustment mutation and due date adjustment reordering are discussed. The performance of the parallel genetic algorithm is illustrated with some example problems.

본 논문에서는 광 상호연결에 응용되기 위한 소자로서, $5{\times}5$ 스폿을 제어하기 위한 이진위상의 화소형 회절격자의 설계에 유전 연산자로서 복제, 교배, 돌연변이 연산자만을 이용한 aGA를 적용하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. 신뢰성 있고, 효율적인 기법으로 증명되고 있는 GA를 적용하기 위하여, 염색체의 크기는 $32{\times}32$로하고, 이진 스트링으로 부호화하였다. 또한 확률적 샘플링 에러를 감소시키기 위하여 순위 기법을 적용하여 복제하였고, 블록의 크기를 $16{\times}16$으로 하여, 단일점 교배법으로 격자를 설계하여 재생된 스폿을 얻은 결과, 돌연변이 확률은 0.001, 교배 확률을 0.75, 개체군의 크기를 300으로 할때, 정량적으로 74.7[%]의 높은 회절효율과 $1.73{\times}10^{-1}$의 안정된 균일 분포를 갖는 최적 값을 얻을 수 있었다.

During meiosis I, programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) occur to promote chromosome pairing and recombination between homologs. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Mec1 and Tel1, the orthologs of human ATR and ATM, respectively, regulate events upstream of the cell cycle checkpoint to initiate DNA repair. Tel1^ATM and Mec1^ATR are required for phosphorylating various meiotic proteins during recombination. This study aimed to investigate the role of Tel1^ATM and Mec1^ATR in meiotic prophase via physical analysis of recombination. Tel1^ATM cooperated with Mec1^ATR to mediate DSB-to-single end invasion transition, but negatively regulated DSB formation. Furthermore, Mec1^ATR was required for the formation of interhomolog joint molecules from early prophase, thus establishing a recombination partner choice. Moreover, Mec1^ATR specifically promoted crossover-fated DSB repair. Together, these results suggest that Tel1^ATM and Mec1^ATR function redundantly or independently in all post-DSB stages.

The pharmacokinetics of cyclosporin A (CsA) after single and multiple oral dosing of new CsA self-micro-emulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) in dogs were estimated. A single dose study was performed following a two-way crossover design against six dogs with reference SMEDDS. For a multiple dose study, three dogs were allocated for each drug, and 100 mg of drug was administered daily for 6 days. Whole blood concentration of CsA was analyzed by radio-immunoassay. Both drug showed identical blood concentration profiles in both studies, and no statistical difference was detected in pharmacokinetic parameters. The relative bioavailabilities of test SMEDDS were 91.4% and 89.1%, respectively, in the single dose study and the last day of multiple dose study. Especially, multiple dose study proved the good relationship between C-0/C-2 and AUC for reference SMEDDS, which is an indispensable part of therapeutic drug monitoring. These results suggest newly formulated CsA SMEDDS possibly shows identical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic behaviors in clinical trials.

The high performance 94 GHz MMIC(Monolithic Micro-wave Integrated Circuit) single balanced mixer was designed and fabricated, using MHEMT structure based diodes and a CPW(Coplanar Waveguide) tandem coupler. A novel single-balanced structure of diode mixer is proposed in this work, where a 3-dB tandem coupler with two section of parallel-coupled line. Implemented air-bridge crossover structures achieve wide frequency operation and the fabricated mixer exhibits excellent LO-RF isolation, larger than 30 dB, in the 5 GHz bandwidth of 91-96 GHz. A good conversion loss of 7.4 dB is measured at 94 GHz. The proposed MHEMT-based diode mixer shows superior LO-RF isolation and conversion loss to those of the W-band mixers reported to date.

The use of a microporous membrane along with Au/C catalyst for direct glycerol alkaline fuel cell was investigated. In comparison with Nafion 112, the microporous Celgard 3401 membrane provides a better cell performance due to the lower ionic resistance as confirmed by impedance spectra. The single cell using Au/C as anode catalyst prepared by using PVA protection techniques provided a higher maximum power density than the single cell with commercial PtRu/C at $18.65mW\;cm^{-2}$ The short-term current decay studies show a better stability of Au/C single cell. The higher activity of Au/C over PtRu/C was owing to the lower activation loss of Awe. The magnitude of current decay indicates a low problem of glycerol crossover from anode to cathode side. The similar performance of single cell with and without humudification at cathode points out an adequate transport of water through the microporous membrane.

This paper proposes a two-phase genetic algorithm (GA) to solve the problem of obtaining an optimum configuration of a paired single row assembly line. We pair two single-row assembly lines due to the shared usage of several workstations, thus obtaining an optimum configuration by considering the material flow of the two rows simultaneously. The problem deals with assigning workstations to a sequence and selecting the best arrangement by looking at the length and width for each workstation. This can be considered as an enhancement of the single row facility layout problem (SRFLP), or the so-called paired SRFLP (PSRFLP). The objective of this PSRFLP is to find an optimal configuration that seeks to minimize the distance traveled by the material handler and even the use of the material handler itself if this is possible. Real-world applications of such a problem can be found for apparel, shoe, and other manual assembly lines. This research produces the schematic representation solution using the heuristic approach. The crossover and mutation will be utilized using the schematic representation solution to obtain the neighborhood solutions. The first phase of the GA result is recorded to get the best pair. Based on these best matched pairs, the second-phase GA can commence.
