Recently, small-scale mobile network which is composed of many mobile devices in a man becomes popular. Also, Examples of large-scale mobile network can be thought access networks deployed on public transportation such as ships, trains and buses. To provide seamless mobility for mobile nodes in this mobile network, binding update messages must be exchanged frequently. However, it incurs network overhead increasingly and decreases energy efficiency of mobile router. If we try to reduce the number of the messages to cope with the problem, it may happen the security -related problems conversely Thus, mobile router needs a effective algorithm to update location information with low cost and to cover security problems. In this paper, mobility management scheme based on mobile router's mobility pattern is proposed. Whenever each mobile router leaves a visiting network, it records related information as moving log. And then it periodically computes mean resident time for all visited network, and saves them in the profile. If each mobile router moves into the visited network hereafter, the number of binding update messages can be reduced since current resident time may be expected based on the profile. At this time, of course, security problems can happen. The problems, however, are solved using key credit, which just sends some keys once. Through extensive experiments, bandwidth usages are measured to compare binding update messages in proposed scheme with that in existing scheme. From the results, we can reduce about 65% of mobility-management-related messages especially when mobile router stays more than 50 minutes in a network. Namely, the proposed scheme improves network usage and energy usage of mobile router by decreasing the number of messages and authorization procedure.

A bacterium producing the extracellular mannanase was isolated from Korean soybean paste. The isolate WL-7 has been identified as Bacillus subtiis on the basis on its 16S rRNA sequence, fatty acid composition, morphology and biochemical properties. The mannanase of culture supernatant was the most active around $55^{\circ}C$ and pH $6.0^{\circ}C$, and retained 90% of its maximum activity at range of pH 5.0∼7.5 and $50∼60^{\circ}C$. The additional carbohydrates including lactose, $\alpha$-cellulose, avicel, locust bean gum (LBG), wheat bran and konjak increased dramatically the mannanase productivity of strain WL-7. Especially, the maximum mannanase productivity was reached to 224 U/ml in LB medium supplemented with both 0.5% LBG and 0.5% konjak, which was approximately 200-folds more than that in LB medium. It was suggested that the increase of mannanase production was owing to induction of mannanase biosynthesis by both LBG and konjak hydrolysates transported following initial hydrolysis by extracellular mannanase during the cell growth.

In order to elucidate the interaction effect between temperature and moisture content on the oil expression of perilla seed, recovery of expressed oil (REO) and volumetric strain of pressed cake (VSPC) of both roasted and unroasted perilla seeds were observed at different temperatures of 30, 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$, and different moisture contents of 2.5, 4.5, 6.5 and 8.5% (w.b). And duration of press was 11 min and applied pressure was 50 MPa. At the low temperature REO and VSPC of roasted and unroasted perilla seed increased in high moisture content and at the high temperature those increased in low moisture content. But REO and VSPC at 8.5% moisture content were decreased without relation to temperature. From the analysis of variance between expression factors and REO and VSPC, temperature and moisture contents showed high significance. Also the interaction effect between temperature and moisture content was higher than temperature. In our experimental conditions, the highest interaction effect between expression factors was observed in the range of $2.5{\sim}4.5%$ of moisture content in all temperatures. The maximum REO of unroasted perilla seeds was observed as 84.4% at 2.5% of moisture content and $60^{\circ}C$, and that of roasted one was as 84.3% at 6.5% of moisture content and $30^{\circ}C$.

While ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is considered a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of polyamines, difluoromethylornithine(DFMO) acts as an inhibitor of polyamine synthesis. Cycling crossbred gilts were randomly assigned to one of two (treatment and control) groups (6/group). An indwelling silicone catheter was surgically implanted in the jugular vein of each animal. DFMO was dissolved in saline(200 mg/ml) and adminstered by i. m. injection at a dose of 80 mg/kg/day. The control group received an equivalent volume saline injection. DFMO was injected 3 times daily(08:00. 16:00. 24:00h) from day 16 of estrous cycle to 21 or until estrus. Once daily blood samples (10ml) were taken from day 14 until two days after the last DFMO treatment. Window blood samples were collected every 15 min for 8 h (from 08:00 to 16:00h) starting on day 16 and continuing until day 21 from one gilt per day. Serum progesterone (P$_4$), estradiol (E$_2$), LH and FSH were measured. Typical concentration profiles for P$_4$ and E$_2$ were seen during the follicular phase regardless of DFMO treatment. Injection of DFMO suppressed the preovulatory LH concentration in the serum(p<0.01) while having no effect on FSH profile. The present results indicate that DFMO had an inhibitory effect on LH secretion in the pig, but did not affect PI, E2 or FSH release.

A multicolumn system consisted of two valve(10-port and 6-port valve)-three column (28% DC 200, SP 1700 and Chromosorb 102 column) was developed. Nine natural gas components composed of $N_2$, $CH_4$, $CO_2$, $C_2H_6$, $C_3H_8$, $i-C_4H_{10}$, $n-C_4H_{10}$, $i-C_5H_{12}$ 및 $n-C_5H_{12}$ completed all the baseline separation within 18 minutes. The accuracy and the precision of this system was tested. The retention times and the peak areas were determined with a repeatability between 0.02 and 0.16%, and less than 1%, respectively. Calibration curves for natural-gas components were plotted by the partial pressure injection method of pure gases, and good linear relationships for each component were presented. By using these calibration curves the accuracy of the multicolumn system compaired with that of the single column system for a certified standard gas of natural gas. As a result, relative error in the single and the multicolumn system was less than 0.5% and 0.04%, respectively. The result of application of this system in the analysis of importing LNG composition showed that the heating values calculated by the multicolum system were estimated lower compared with those calculated by the single column system and consequently, the importing price of LNG was able to be cut down.

This study presented an analytical method for detecting radium in soils using a liquid scintillation counter (LSC). The isotope ²²⁶Ra was extracted from soil using the fusion method and then separated from interfering radionuclides using the precipitation method. Radium was coprecipitated as sulfate salts with barium (Ba) and then converted into Ba(Ra)CO₃, which is soluble in an acidic solution. The isotope ²²²Rn, the decay progeny of ²²⁶Ra, was trapped in a water immiscible cocktail and analyzed by LSC. The pulse shape analysis (PSA) level was estimated using ⁹⁰Sr and ²²⁶Ra standard solutions. The figure of merit was the highest at PSA 80, while the alpha spillover was the lowest at PSA 80. The counting efficiency was 243 ± 2% in a glass vial. This analytical method was verified with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reference materials, including IAEA-312, IAEA-314, and IAEA-315. The recovery ranged from 60–82%, while the relative bias between the measured value and the recommended value was less than 10%. The minimum detectable activity was 2.1 Bq kg⁻¹ with dry mass 1 g, the background count rate of 0.02 cpm, the recovery rate of 70% and counting time of 30 min.

This study repeated low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to evaluate the effects on cognitive function in chronic stroke patients. Among the chronic stroke patients, 30 patients selected by MMSE-K and BCRS-K were divided randomly into 3 groups. Group I (n=10) had only sound applied, group II (n=10) were applied 1 Hz rTMS on the damaged side and group III (n=10) were applied to 1 Hz rTMS on the opposite side for total 2 weeks, 20 minutes per a day, five times per a week. To examine the change in cognitive function, CREAD-K scores were measured before, 1 week, 2 weeks, and then 3 months after the intervention. The CREAD-K scores were measured before and 1 week, 2 weeks and 3 months after the interventions. The immediate recall memory showed a significant difference after 2 weeks and 3 months in groups II and III (p<.05), The recognition memory showed a significant difference after 2 weeks and 3 months in group III (p<.05). The delayed recall memory showed significant differences after 3 months in group III than in group I (p<.05). Therefore, the application of low-frequency rTMS has a positive influence on the cognitive rehabilitation of chronic stroke patients.

Dry noodles were prepared with wheat flour and immature Rubes coreanus (Bogbunja) powder, and the effects of added immature bogbunja powders on dough rheology and noodle quality were examined. Particle size distribution of immature bogbunja powder ranged from 0.04 to $500\;{\um}m$, which was different from that of wheat flour. The initial pasting temperature, peak and final viscosities as well as setback increased in amylograph with the increase of immature bogbunja powder. The water absorption and dough development time increased, but the dough stability decreased in farinograph with the increase of immature bogbunja powder. Decrease of L and b values and increase of a value were shown with the increase of immature bogbunja powder in wheat flour-immature bogbunja powder composite as well as dry noodles. The cooked weight and volume of noodles decreased, but the cooking loss increased with the addition of immature bogbunja powder. Most of texture parameters (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, gumminess and tension) of cooked noodles decreased with the addition of immature bogbunja powder. From the result of sensory evaluation, dry noodles containing 1 and 2% immature bogbunja powder were rated as higher quality dry noodles than the others.

In this study, a lab-scale test was performed to apply the ozone process in drinking water treatment plant using dissolved ai, flotation(DAF). The kinetic study on the ozone decay and hydroxyl(OH) radical formation was investigated by several parameters, such as I.D(Instantaneous ozone demand), $k_c$(ozone decomposition rate), ozone-Ct and OH radical-Ct. Ozonation of several target waters, such as raw water, DAF treated water and filtrate, was conducted to select the optimum position and dosage of ozone process. The highest value of Ozone-Ct and OH radical-Ct was observed at DAF treated water at initial run time($0{\sim}30\;min$). From the results of ozonation, the intermediate ozonation was proposed as the optimum position and the effective dose of ozone was determined to be $1{\sim}2\;mg/L$.

Continuous dry anaerobic digestion of organic solid wastes (30% TS, Total Solids) comprised of food waste and paper was performed under mesophilic condition. During the operation, hydraulic retention time (HRT) was decreased as follows: 150 d, 100 d, 60 d, and 40 d, which corresponded to the solid loading rate of 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, and 7.5 kg TS/$m^3$/d, respectively. Volumetric biogas production rate ($m^3$/$m^3$/d) increased as HRT decreased, and the highest biogas production rate of 3.49${\pm}$0.31 $m^3$/$m^3$/d was achieved at 40 d of HRT. At this HRT, high volatile solids (VS) reduction of 76% was maintained, and methane production yield of 0.25 $m^3$/kg $TS_{added}$ was achieved, indicating 67.4% conversion of organic solid waste to bioenergy. The highest biogas production yield of 0.52 $m^3$/kg $TS_{added}$ was achieved at 100 d of HRT, but it did not change much with respect to HRT. For the ease feed pumping, some amount of digester sludge was recycled and mixed with fresh feed to decrease the solid content. Recirculation volume of 5Q was found to be the optimal in this experimental condition. Specific methanogenic activity (SMA) of microorganisms at mesophilic-dry condition was 2.66, 1.94, and 1.20 mL $CH_4$/g VS/d using acetate, butyrate, and propionate as a substrate, respectively.
