In the outwardly changing environment of public security these days, police administration faces the nation's request for qualitative improvement of police service and the new request of police reformation for changing function of police in Korea. The nation wishes police to provide service fairly. The issue most seriously mentioned in the reliability of police service is very large gap in the recognition of service quality between supplier and consumer. To get the trust of nation in delivering police service, the police must have justness, consistency, punctuality of delivery, propriety and efficiency. However, the recognition of citizen, the consumer of police service is more important. How to correspond to the nation's request to police needs to be decided by evaluating the quality of present police service. It is necessary to be interested in what customer wants so as to evaluate the quality of police activity.

In this paper, an image quality evaluation of amorphous selenium based x-ray system was performed using modulation transfer function (MTF) measurement. MTF as a main factor of imaging quality evaluation was investigated by contrast method from acquired test pattern image. The MTF value was measured to 36.1% at 3.0 lp/mm which is twice as high as that in the film image. Compared with other studies, the results demonstrate that amorphous selenium based x-ray detector is clinically meaningful.

In wireless sensor networks, there have been two methods for sensing continuously moving object tracking: user-query based method and periodic report based method. Although the former method requires overhead for user query rather than the latter method, the former one is known as an energy-efficient method without transferring unnecessary information. In the former method, a virtual tree, consisting of sensor nodes, is exploited for the user querying and sensor reporting. The tree stores the information about mobile objects; the stored information is triggered to report by the user query. However, in case of fast moving object, the tracking accuracy reduces due to the time delay of end-to-end repeated query. To solve the problem, we propose a query relaying method reducing the time delay for mobile object tracking. In the proposed method, the nodes in the tree relay the query to the adjacent node according to the movement of mobile object tracking. Relaying the query message reduces the end-to-end querying time delay. Simulation results show that our method is superior to the existing ones in terms of tracking accuracy.

본 논문에서는 스케일링-불변 윤곽선 이미지 매칭의 시각화 도구를 제안한다. 윤곽선 이미지를 시계열로 나타낼 경우, 시계열 매칭 기술을 활용하여 대용량 윤곽선 이미지 매칭을 보다 빠르게 수행할 수 있다. 이러한 윤곽선 이미지 매칭에서, 스케일링 불변의 지원은 스케일된 유사 이미지를 검색하기 위한 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 스케일링-불변 윤곽선 이미지 매칭 시스템을 클라이언트-서버 모델을 기반으로 구현한다. 먼저, 클라이언트는 질의 이미지를 시계열로 변환하고, 스케일링 팩터 구간 및 허용치와 함께 서버에 전달하고, 매칭 결과로 반환된 이미지를 차트 형태로 시각화한다. 다음으로 서버는 다차원 인덱스를 활용하여 대용량 윤곽선 시계열 데이터에 대한 빠른 시계열 매칭을 수행한다. 구현 결과, 제안하는 윤곽선 이미지 매칭 시각화 도구는 질의 이미지와 스케일링-불변 결과 이미지를 세 가지의 차트를 통해 직관적으로 비교 및 분석 가능하게 하였다.

The paper studies the influencing factors of continuous usage intention for a scenario based cognitive FAQ service regrading on private information protection. The research result finds that three major factors are significantly positive to the continuous usage intention for the service. First, search easiness is an essential factor and it can be improved using sophisticate categorization. Second, Scenario based FAQ service is effective on understanding and solving questioner's situation. Related information is helpful for problem solving. The research shows that the new approach to private information protection area can lead to a more acceptable and reasonable problem solving tool.

In this paper, a replica update propagation method for cost optimization of request forwarding in the Grid database is proposed,. In the Grid database, the data is replicated for performance and availability. In the case of data update, update information is forwarded to the neighbor nodes to synchronize with the others replicated data. There are two kinds of update propagation method that are the query based scheme and the log based scheme. And, only one of them is commonly used. But, because of dynamically changing environment through property of update query and processing condition, strategies that using one propagation method increases transmission cost in dynamic environment. In the proposed method, the three classes are defined from two cost models of query and log based scheme. And, cost functions and update propagation method is designed to select optimized update propagation scheme from these three classes. This paper shows a proposed method has an optimized performance through minimum transmission cost in dynamic processing environment.

The active transport characteristics of anions of cell membrane model which irradiated by $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-ray$ was investigated. The cell membrane model used in this experiment was a sulfonated copolymerized membrane of poly(1-methyl-4-vinylpyridiniumiodide-co-divinylbenzene : MeVP-DVBI). First, the initial flux of $OH^-$ and $Cl^-$, $Na^+$ of membrane which was not irradiated was decreased with increase of thickness of membrane $80-200{\mu}m$, increased with increase of NaOH concentration 0-0.5mol/L and MeVP-DVBI concentration 20-80% was increased with initial flux of $OH^-$ and $Cl^-$, decreased with initial flux of $Na^+$. Second, the initial flux of membrane which was irradiated was less than that. And the driving force of pH of irradiated membrane was significantly increased more than membrane which was not irradiated. The initial flux of the $OH^-$ ion was decreased with increase of $H^+$ ion concentration. As selective transport of $OH^-$ and $Cl^-$ of cell membrane model were abnormal, cell damages were appeared at cell.

Inhibition of the early N-glycosylation process in the endoplasmic reticulum prevents the activation of tyrosinase, a key enzyme for melanin biosynthesis. This work aims at evaluating the increased activity of N-glycosylation inhibitors in vitro b, employing a nano-sized pH-sensitive liposome as a delivery carrier. Melexsome, a pH-sensitive nano carrier loaded with glycosylation inhibitos, was prepared by the hydration method with phospholipids and cholresterol-based amphiphiles. Inhibitory effects of Melexsome on the N-glycosylation process were evaluated by EndoH ＆ PNGaseF digestion and the western blotting. Melanin synthesis was also monitored after treatment with Melexsome Interestingly, Melexsome effectively increased the efficacy of N-glycosylation inhibitors. Melexsome was also much more efficiently translocated into the cytoplasm as observed in CLSM. These results demonstrated that the amphiphilic lipid-based pH-sensitive nano-carriers could be, used as an efficient delivery system for N-glycosylation inhibitor to enhance the effects of skin whitening cosmetics.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the biological function of ODAM and its signal transduction pathway in the steps of ameloblast differentiation and enamel mineralization. An ODAM recombinant protein was produced and stable ODAM transgenic cell lines were also established using ameloblast-lineage cells (ALCs). To verify the ODAM signal transduction pathway, BAMBI recombinant protein, an inhibitor of BMP2 and BMP receptor 1B (BMPR-1B), was treated and BMPR-1B siRNA was used to silence expression of BMPR-1B. Mineralization was augmented by the ALCs treated with the ODAM recombinant protein and the sense ODAM overexpressing cells. The ALP activity was also increased markedly in the sense ODAM overexpressing cells and the ALCs treated with ODAM recombinant protein. The inactivation of ODAM in the ALCs down-regulated the expression of BMPR-1B, whereas its expression was up-regulated markedly when ODAM was overexpressed. These results provide deeper insights into the process of ameloblast maturation and in enamel mineralization. It also suggested that ODAM augmented enamel mineralization.
