NAND flash memory is widely used in embedded systems because of many attractive features, such as small size, light weight, low power consumption and fast access speed. However, it requires garbage collection, which includes erase operations. Erase operation is slower than other operations. Further, a block has a limited erase lifetime (typically 100,000) after which a block becomes unusable. The proposed garbage collection policy focuses on minimizing the total number of erase operations, the deviation value of each block and the garbage collection time. NAND flash memory consists of pages of three types, such as valid pages, invalid pages and free pages. In order to achieve above goals, we use a page ratio to decide when to do garbage collection and to select the target victimblock. Additionally, we implement allocating method and group management method. Simulation results show that the proposed policy performs better than Greedy or CAT with the maximum rate 85% of reduction in the deviation value of the erase operations and 6% reduction in garbage collection time.

Fractal theory has strengths such as high compression rate and fast decoding time in application to image compression, but it suffers from long comparison time necessary for finding an optimally similar domain block in the encoding stage. This paper proposes a neural network based block classifier which enhances the encoding time significantly by classifying domain blocks into 4 patterns and searching only those blocks having the same pattern with the range block to be encoded. Size of a block is differently determined depending on the image complexity of the block. The proposed algorithm has been tested with three different images having various featrues. The experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm enhances the compression time by 40% on average compared to the conventional fractal encoding algorithms, while maintaining allowable image qualify of PSNR 30 dB.

The effect on collection efficiency with 2-stage vortex finder diameter and back mixing of solid flow due to swirling intensity, turbulence eddies, wall bouncing using the residence time distribution of particle flow in a common and modified cyclone. Higher collection efficiencies of fly ash in a modified cyclone(S = 13, 15cm) are showed than common cyclone. Collection efficiency in modified cyclone was highest at 2-stage vortex finder diameter, S = 13 cm. Variances of residence time distribution and average residence times of glass bead were increased with a diameter(S) of 2-stage vortex finder due to swirling intensity and turbulence eddies. Back mixing of solid flow in a modified cyclone were increased with a gas inlet velocity and showed higher than a common cyclone.

This paper showed that the integrated system to fortify security was much more efficient than the respective system through the analysis of problems from Firewall and IPS system in the existing security systems. The results of problem analysis revealed that there were the delay of processing time and lack of efficiency in the existing security systems. Accordingly, their performance was evaluated by using the separated Firewall, IPS system, and the integrated system. The result of evaluation shows that the integrated security system this paper suggested is five times faster than the existing one in terms of processing speed of response. This paper demonstrated the excellence of the proposed security system is also more than fivefold in session handling per second and six times process speeding in the CPU processing performance. In addition, several security policies are applied, and it provided a fact that it gave an excellent performance when it comes to protecting from harmful traffic attacks. In conclusion, this paper emphasized that fortifying the integrated security system was more efficient than fortifying the existing one considering in various respects such as cost, management, time, space and so on.

The study begin with a basic concept, if the occupancy length of vehicle detector is directly proportional to the delay of vehicle. That is, it analogize vehicle's delay of a occupancy time. The results of a study was far superior in the estimation of a queue length. It is a very good points the operator is not necessary to optimize s1, s2, Thdoc. Thdoc(critical congestion degree) replaced 0.7 with 0.2 - 0.3. But, if vehicles have been experience in delay was not occupy vehicle detector, the study is in existence some problems. In conclusion, it is necessary that stretch queue detector or install paired queue detector. Also I want to be made steady progress a following study relation to this study, because it is required traffic signal control on congestion.

A continuous stirred tank membrane reactor(CSTMR ) was developed and optimized for the production of cod skin gelatin hydrolyzates using endo-protease Alcalase. A experimental design methodology was used to optimize the four performance variables: enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, permeate flux and reactor volume. All four variables studied had an effect on substrate conversion, with enzyme and substrate concentrations being predominant. Conversion increased with the increase in enzyme concentration, with the decrease in substrate concentration, at high volumes and low flux. A strong interaction was observed between enzyme and substrate concentrations and smaller interactions between enzyme and flux and substrate and flux. The optimum operating conditions for the CSTMR process for an initial substrate concentration for 10% were $50^{\circ}C$, pH 8, flux 7.3ml/min, residence time 82 min, and Alcalase to substrate ratio 0.02(w/w). A gradual decay in reactor activity during 8 hrs was 2.1% conversion/hr. Enzyme leakage through the 10, 000 MWCO membrane was 16% at $50^{\circ}C$ and 12% at $35^{\circ}C$, 6hrs. However, there was no apparent correlation between enayme leakage and substrate conversion. The Km value for the CSTMR was 20 times higher than the batch reactor. The productivity(expressed as mg product/mg enzyme) of the CSTMR was more than six fold higher than the batch at $50^{\circ}C$. The hydrolyzate was non-bitter.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of presteaming on the drying rate and drying defects of 3 cm - thick Quercus acutissima. Specimens for presteaming were steamed green at $100^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours and then kiln-dried to 10 percent moisture, content with controls, using the kiln-drying schedule ($T_4-C_2$) recommended by Rasmussen. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Presteaming reduced drying time approximately 18 percent from 70 to 10 percent moisture content. 2. The effect of presteaming on surface checking was not significant. 3. Presteamed specimens showed the reduction in end checking compared with controls. 4. Percents of boards with collapse, cupping, and honeycomb of presteamed specimens were slightly lower than those of controls. 5. Dry lumber grade of presteamed specimens was better than that of controls. Percent of first grade boards of presteamed specimens was 20 percent higher than that of controls and percents of second and third grade boards of presteamed specimens were 15 and 5 percent lower than those of controls, respectively.

This research carried out a 3-dimensional simulation using computerized fluid dynamics (CFD) for the flow characteristics, temperature distribution, velocity distribution and residence time, etc. in a reactor in order to derive the optimal combustion conditions of an innovative combustion system. The area-weighted average temperature of the outlet of a furnace during combustion at a condition of fuel input rate 1.5 ton/hr, residence time 1.25 sec and air/fuel ratio 2.1 was $1,077^{\circ}C$, which is a suitable temperature for energy recovery and treatment of air pollutants. Exhaust gas is discharged through a duct at a 40~50 m/s maximum speed along strong vortexes at the center of a combustion chamber, so strong turbulence is created at the center of a combustion chamber to enhance the combustion speed and combustion efficiency. In this system, the optimum operation conditions to prevent incomplete combustion and suppress the formation of thermal NOx were air/fuel ratio 1.9~2.1 and fuel input rate 1.25~1.5 ton/hr.

This study examined the prevention of deep vein thrombosis and skin response after the application of boots or calf intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices in immobile patients with intracranial surgery. The subjects of this study included 60 patients in a surgical intensive care unit after receiving intracranial surgery from May to November in 2015. The blood flow velocity was measured daily to assess the deep vein thrombosis for 7 days, and the skin response of the legs was observed regularly. As a result, the boots IPC group showed an increased blood flow velocity over time compared to the calf IPC group. A significant statistical difference was observed in both the boots IPC group and calf IPC group over time (Right side; F=64.41, p<.001, Left side; F=58.21, p<.001). The dorsum circumference over time and the correlations between two groups (Right side; F=9.13, p <.001, left side; F=9.29, p<.001) also showed a significant difference. In addition, the boots IPC group showed no skin complications. In conclusion, the boots type IPC is a more effective method for preventing deep vein thrombosis for immobile patients with intracranial surgery.

The objective of this study is to enhance the model's speed of estimating weather variables (e.g., minimum/maximum temperature, sunshine hour, PRISM (Parameter-elevation Regression on Independent Slopes Model) based precipitation), which are applied to the Agrometeorological Early Warning System (http://www.agmet.kr). The current process of weather estimation is operated on high-performance multi-core CPUs that have 8 physical cores and 16 logical threads. Nonetheless, the server is not even dedicated to the handling of a single county, indicating that very high overhead is involved in calculating the 10 counties of the Seomjin River Basin. In order to reduce such overhead, several cache and parallelization techniques were used to measure the performance and to check the applicability. Results are as follows: (1) for simple calculations such as Growing Degree Days accumulation, the time required for Input and Output (I/O) is significantly greater than that for calculation, suggesting the need of a technique which reduces disk I/O bottlenecks; (2) when there are many I/O, it is advantageous to distribute them on several servers. However, each server must have a cache for input data so that it does not compete for the same resource; and (3) GPU-based parallel processing method is most suitable for models such as PRISM with large computation loads.
