This study empirically examines the dynamic specification of the ship price model based on a vector autoregressive model and data covering from January 2000 to October 2014. Our results are summarized as follows: first, the relationship between ship price and interest rate shows significantly negative and the relationship between ship price and freight rate shows positive. It provides consistent implication that ship price depends on interest rate and freight rate under the dynamic Gordon model. Second, we apply an impulse response analysis to ship price and find the responses of the ship price from both factors, interest rate and freight rate, which affect during seven periods approximately. Finally, the results of a variance decomposition indicate that freight rate is more important than interest rate on the ship price.

In this paper, we proposed a fuzzy controller for the evaluation of the quantization Parameters in the H.263 coder to optimize the subjective quality of each coded frame, keeping the transmission rate constant. We adopted the Mamdani method for fuzzification and the centroid method for defuzzification. The energy and entropy are correlated to features of the HVS in spatial domain, while motion vectors are used to estimate the temporal characteristics of the signal. And then, the fuzzy inputs adapted the variance and the entropy in spatial domain, and the motion vector in temporal domain. We induced the fuzzy membership function and decided the fuzzy relevance to be compatible in visual characteristics. And then, we designed FAM banks. The fuzzy technology has been applied to a practical video compression. This results is obtained an effective rate control technique, an optimum bit allocation and a high subjective quality using fuzzy quantization.

The fast and Precise service for the users request is the most important in the World Wide Web. However, the lest service is difficult due to the rapid increase of the Internet users recently. The Shared Web Caching (SWC) is one of the methods solving this problem. The performance of SWC is highly depend on the hit rate and the hit rate is effected by the memory size, processing speed of the server, load balancing and so on. The conventional load balancing is usually based on the state history of system, but the prediction of the state of the system can be used for the load balancing that will further improve the hit rate. In this study, a Hot Spot Prediction Method (HSPM) has been suggested to improve the throughputs of the proxy. The predicted hot spots, which is the item most frequently requested, should be predicted beforehand. The result show that the suggested method is better than the consistent hashing in the point of the load balancing and the hit rate.

The relationship between cumulus cell expansion, cocyte maturation and metabolic cooperativitiy was investigated by using mouse and pig cocyte-cumulus complexes in vitro. Cocyte germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) and cumulus expansion were manipulated with hormones or reagents which increase intracellular cAMP leveL Metabolic cooperativity between oocyte and cumulus cells was assessed by determination of the fraction of radiolabelled uridine marker that was transferred from the cumulus mass to the oocyte. Uptake of uddine marker by mouse and pig cumulus mass was increased by about fourfold of basal level with the stimulation of hormones (human choriononic gonadotrophin, HCG; follicle stimulating hormone, FSH) or cyclic AMP sttmulators (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, IBMX; forskolin) during culture. However, the fraction of uridine that was transferred from the cumulus mass to the cocyte (transfer ratio) was gradually decreased during culture, irrespective with the presence of hormones or stimulators. The decrease of the transfer ratio was not correlated with the state of occyte whether they have GV or not, or with the degree of cumulus expansion. In mouse complexes, HCG induced more significant reducton of transfer ratio than other treatments. These results do not support the idea that modulations of metabolic cooperativity between cumulus cells and oocytes are important for the regulation of meiotic resumption in mammals.

In this study, we produced heat-shield coating materials using surface-treated Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) and investigated the dispersity of particle, visible light transmittance, ultraviolet light cut off, infrared light cut-off, heat-shielding property by surface-treating compounds and treatment conditions. In the case of using IPA or acryl binder for heat-shield coating, the dispersity of inorganic oxide particles was poor but in the case of using surface-treated inorganic oxide particles by hybrid compound having urethane (urea) group, acryl group and silica, dispersity of particle, visible light transmittance and haze were improved. We used the measurement kit and sunlamp for measuring heat-shielding property and confirmed that the internal temperature of the measurement kit using heat-shield film was lower more than $4.8^{\circ}C$ in comparison with using PET film for itself.

We derived an equation showing the temperature dependence of the zero-dispersion wavelength and measured the temperature dependence of the zero dispersion wavelength using four-wave mixing in dispersion shifted fibers in the range of $22^{\circ}C-59^{\circ}C$ From the experimental results, we found that the zero-dispersion wavelength is increased as the temperature around DSF increases and its temperature dependence is 0.032 nm/$^{\circ}C$. Also, the calculated behavior of FWM efficiency coincided with the experimental result.

$TiO_2$-nanoparticle-dispersed silicone was applied to a LED package and the light efficiency of the LED package was evaluated in this study. The addition of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles in silicone increased refractive index, which improved the light efficiency of the LED package. The $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were fabricated by hydrothermal synthesis and were dispsersed by a vinyl silane coating treatment. After the silane treatment, the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles dispersed with diameters of 10~40 nm but rod-shape $TiO_2$ nanoparticles with lengths of 100 nm were also observed. The refractive index increased with the $TiO_2$ concentration in silicone, while the transmittance decreased with the $TiO_2$ concentration. The light efficient of the LED package with $TiO_2$+silicone encapsulant was higher than that of the LED package with no $TiO_2$ in silicone encapsulant.

최근 사용자의 멀티미디어에 대한 요구의 증가가 VOD (Video-on-Demand) 서비스를 발전시키게 되었다. VOD는 엔터테인먼트나 원격 교육, 광고 및 정보 등 많은 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 이러한 VOD 서비스는 많은 디스크 I/O와 네트워크 I/O를 요구하며 기존 웹 서버 시스템과 비교했을 때 오랜 시간동안 서비스를 해야 하는 특징을 가지고 있다. 또한 VOD 서비스는 많은 네트워크와 디스크의 대역폭을 요구하며, 서비스의 QoS에 민감해서 사용자 응답시간이 길어지면 사용자 요청의 취소율이 높아지게 된다. 따라서 불만족스러운 서비스의 증가로 네트워크 부하만 증가하게 된다. 이러한 기존 웹 서버 환경과는 다른 부하의 패턴이 있는 VOD 서비스 환경에서는 부하를 균형적으로 분배하여 서비스의 QoS를 높이는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 분산 VOD 시스템 환경에서 부하를 효율적으로 분산하기 위해 계층형 분산 VOD 시스템 모델과 사용자 요청 패턴의 히스토리와 유전 알고리즘을 기반으로 한 스케줄러를 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 계층형 분산 VOD 시스템 모델은 서버들을 지역적으로 분산하고 제어 서버를 지역마다 설치하여 지역에 있는 VOD 서버들을 관리하도록 구성한다. 사용자 요청을 지역 서버군 내에서 분산시키기 위해서 히스토리를 기반으로 한 유전 알고리즘을 사용한다. 이러한 히스토리 정보를 기반으로 유전 알고리즘의 적합도 함수에 적용하여 VOD 시스템을 위한 유전 알고리즘과 유전 연산을 구현한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 부하 분산 알고리즘은 VOD 서비스 환경에서 사용자 요구에 대한 부하를 보다 정확하게 예측하여 부하를 분산할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 계층형 분산 VOD 시스템의 부하 분산 알고리즘의 성능을 테스트하기 위해 OPNET 기반 시뮬레이터를 구현한다. 라운드로빈(round-robin) 방식과 랜덤(random) 방식과의 비교 실험을 통해 본 논문에서 제안한 부하 분산 알고리즘의 성능을 평가한다. 비교 실험을 통해 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘이 보다 안정적인 QoS를 제공하는 것을 보여준다.

Cyclic AMP (cAMP) was known to play a key role in the regulation of cumulus expansion and oocyte maturation of mammalian cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC's) in vivo and in vitro. The present experiments were conducted to know how intracellular level of cAMP in these cells is controlled. Intracellular cAMP level was modulated by culturing mouse CGC's with an adenylate cyclase stimulator, forskolin, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, 3-isobutyl-1-methyixanthine (IBMX), human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG), or follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). The rate of cumulus expansion and germinal vesicle break-down (GVBD) was checked after culture and used as a biological end point. Forskolin in the medium began to stimulate the expansion of the complexes at 1 nM and induced maximum expansion (80~90%) at 0 1~10 $\mu$M. The expansion rate was reduced to 60% when forskolin concentration was increased to 100 $\mu$M. Oocyte GVBD occurred normally (75~82%) in the presence of 10 $\mu$M of forskolin, but partial suppression was appeared at 100 pM of the drug (40%). IBMX also stimulated the expansion from the concentration of 0.01 pM and induced full expansion (81~89%) between the concentration of 1-1000 $\mu$M. Meiotic resumption was occurred normally under 10 $\mu$M of IBMX, but suppressed drastically from the concentration of 100 $\mu$M. The minimum exposing time to hormone or drugs required to trigger cumulus expansion was two minutes with HCG, 15~30 minutes with FSH and fors kolin, and two hours with IBMX. The data presented here seemed to imply that intracellular cAMP level in cumulus cells is regulated by both adenylate cyclase and phosphodiesterase and cumulus expansion is induced by a peak of cAMP while meiotic arrest is maintained by continuous presence of cAMP.

본 연구의 목적은 일괄매매와 접속매매에서의 주가변동의 행태를 이론적으로 구명하고, 이를 바탕으로 우리나라 종합주가지수를 이용하여 일중 주가지수수익률분산을 구하여 두 제도를 실증적으로 비교분석하는 데 있다. 정보거래자와 무정보거래자가 증권시장에 참여한다는 전제하에 일괄매매와 접속매매의 주가변동성을 유도하고, 양제도에서의 주가변동성을 이론적으로 비교 분석한 결과, 시점간 정보 거래자비율이나 혹은 거래자수가 일정할 경우, 접속매매의 가격변동성이 일괄매매의 가격변동성 보다 큰 것으로 분석된다. 그러나 매 시점마다 정보거래자비율과 거래자수가 일정하지 않을 경우에는 일괄매매의 주가변동성이 접속매매의 주가변동성 보다 더 큰 경우도 발생하지만, 시점1의 거래자비율이 $20%{\sim}80%$ 사이에서 변동할 경우에는 역시 접속매매가 일괄매매보다 주가변동성이 더 클 가능성은 크게 높아진다. 이 같은 이론연구를 바탕으로 노이즈제거전 10분간격 주가지수수익률분산을 살펴본 결과, 9시 41분이 가장 크고 폐장동시호가가 가장 작은 것으로 분석되었으며, 또한 전장에서는 작아지는 경향을 보이고 후장에서는 폭 넓은 U자 형태를 갖는 것으로 나타난다. 그리고 동시호가의 주가지수수익률분산은 개장동시호가가 가장 크고, 후장개장동시호가가 그 다음이며, 가장작은 것은 폐장동시호가인 것으로 분석된다. 폐장동시호가와 후장개장동시호가의 주가지수수익률분산이 대부분의 접속매매보다는 작으나, 노이즈제거후 주가지수수익률분산은 전장개장동시호가가 노이즈제거전과 마찬가지로 가장 컸지만, 폐장동시호가는 전장접속매매와 후장개시동시호가 보다 더 크게 나타났다. 이와 같이 전장개장동시호가의 주가지수수익률분산이 높은 것은 전일 15시부터 당일 9시 31분까지를 대상으로 주가지수수익률이 계산되어진 것과 긴 비거래시간 때문으로 해석할 수 있다. 그리고 폐장동시호가의 주가지수수익률분산이 접속매매 보다 큰 것은 본 연구모형에서 말하는 정보분산이 시점간에 같지 않고 폐장동시호가의 정보분산이 큰 데서 그 원인을 찾을 수 있다. 현재 우리나라에서는 매매제도가 주가변동에 미치는 영향에 대한 이론적 실증적 연구가 미진하고, 이에 대한 관심이 비교적 적다. 따라서 본 연구는 매매제도에 따른 주가변동성의 행태 뿐만 아니라 정보변동의 분산, 정보거래자의 정보해석노이즈, 무정보거래자의 유동성노이즈 등이 주가변동성에 미치는 영향에 대한 이해의 폭을 넓혀 줌으로써 증권시장의 효율성제고에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
