This experimental study investigated the characteristics of flow-induced vibration of two elastically supported circular cylinders in a side-by-side arrangement. In particular, the characteristics of the flow-induced vibration of the two cylinders are investigated by changing the flow speed at each spacing ratio L/D (L is the space between two cylinders and D is the diameter of the cylinder). To clarify the mechanism generating the flow-induced vibration of the cylinders, the flow patterns around the two vibrating cylinders are also investigated using a flow visualization test that reproduces the flow-induced vibration of the cylinders with a forced vibration apparatus. As a result, it is clarified that the flow-induced vibration characteristics of the two cylinders arranged side-by-side switch among four patterns as the flow between the two cylinders is switched. Among the three arrangements considered (tandem, staggered, and side-by-side), the arrangement that generates flow-induced vibration of the two cylinders most easily is the side-by-side arrangement.

As the data transfer rate between chips gets higher, both crosstalk and SSN (Simultaneous Switching Noise) deteriorate seriously the performance of a system. The proposed interface scheme uses P-CTR and N-CTR(Positive/Negative Constant Transition Rate) which encodes data at both falling and rising edges, where the transition directions of N-CTR and P-CTR are opposite. And the proposed bus system places two P-CTR drivers and two N-CTR drivers alternatively. In the proposed P/N-CTR interface scheme, the signals of neighboring interconnection lines at both sides of a bus will not switch simultaneously in the same direction, which leads to reduction in the maximum crosstalk and SSN compared to conventional interfaces. For verification of noise reduction of the proposed interface scheme, the scheme is applied to several kinds of bit-wide buses with various interconnection structures, and HSPICE simulation was performed with 0.35 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SPICE parameters. The simulation results show that in the 32-bit or less wide bus, the maximum SSN and crosstalk are reduced to at least 26.78% and 50%, respectively in comparison with the conventional interface scheme.

In this paper, a simplified QoS model of MPLS-based backbone network. Conventional scheme proposed by IETF(IETF schem) is to embed a DiffServ model in MPLS network. However, this approach results in overall upgrade of MPLS system and so it is difficult to deploy this approach. Our proposed model, however, uses a Vidual Link which is a set of Label Switched Path(LSP) connected from an Ingress Label Edge Router(LER) to an Egress LER. In this model, Per-Hop-Behavior(PHB) is implemented only at each LSP in ingress LER and Core Label Switch Routers(LSRs) just guarantee each LSP's bandwidth, not service. This bandwidth guarantee service is fully provided by legacy MPLS model. Also we propose flow allocation mechanism and the flow distribution among LSPs of the virtual link by the flow according to the network status. To evaluate the simplified approach, the characteristics of the approach are compared logically with these of IETF's one through simulations.

The HOX genes coding homeodomain proteins have been suggested as a candidate molecular switch that determines the fates of cells during embryonic development and patterning. It is believed that a set of differentiation-specific HOX genes enter into a turn-on state during tissue differentiation, in contrast to stem cell-specific HOX genes that enter into a turn-off state. However, comprehensive data of expression profiles of HOX genes in human embryonic stem cells (hESC) and differentiated embryonic tissues are not available. In this study, we investigated the expression patterns of all 39 HOX genes in hESC and human fetal tissues and analyzed the relationships between hESC and each tissue. Of the 39 genes, 18 HOX genes were expressed in stem cells, and diverse expression patterning was observed in human fetal tissues when compared with stem cells. These results indicate that HOX genes could be main targets for switching of stem cell differentiation into tissues.

An objective of this study is to develop a voltage measuring device that uses a gas-filled switch (GS) on 22.9 kV-y extra-high voltage distribution lines. The voltage measuring device proposed in this paper is a kind of capacitive divider which consists of a detecting electrode attached outside of the bushing of GS, an impedance matching circuit, and a voltage buffer. It can be easily installed in an established GS without changing the structure. For the calibration and application investigations, the voltage measuring device was set up in the 25.8 kV 400 A GS, and a step pulse generator having 5 ns rise time is used. As a result, it was found that the frequency bandwidth of the voltage measuring device ranges from 1.35 Hz to about 13 MHz. The error of voltage dividing ratio which is evaluated by the commercial frequency voltage of 60 Hz was less than 0.2%. In addition, voltage dividing ratio in the commercial frequency voltage and in a non-oscillating impulse voltage were compared, and their deviation were less than 0.7%.

The automatic control system in the greenhouse have to be developed to the direction of considering various factors the variables such as condition of the cultivation and greenhouse, the properties and types of products. Therefore, it is more important to set up variables appropriately than the problems of automatic control system itself, and the automatic control system which satisfy these problems should be simplified in the aspect of operation. In addition, even the individual automations are not perfect yet, so more studies are required for the development of comprehensive automatic system in korea. This study was carried out to automatize environment control systems for greenhouse, especially from most intensive labor requiring parts such as watering, irrigating liquefied fertilizer, spraying chemicals, mixing and ventilation system, etc. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Control type tensiometer was expected to be desirable in the automation of watering system, therefore, a new tensiometer was designed and developed through this study. 2. The chemical spraying system developed through this study was found to be excellent in the aspect of operation. 3. When pulse type water discharge meter was used in the mixing of liquefied fertilizer and chemical solution, the error of mixing were range $\pm$0.1~0.15%. 4. The water level switch of electrod type used for controlling water level was found to be affective in both control performance and operation cost. 5. The water and level control system can be omitted if each tank size are standardized in accordance with greenhouse size, therefore, the installation cost might be significantly reduced. 6. The developed general controller was excellent in hardware parts, but still remained to be improved in software parts.

In this paper the characteristic analysis of a single-phase switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive system with power factor correction (PFC) circuit is presented. The SRM is a low cost, simple and has a good high speed performance. The SRM drive with diode rectifier and filter capacitor has a low power factor because of short switch on time of capacitor. A novel switching topologic is presented to improve power factor and reduce torque ripple based on analysis of PFC circuit. Accordingly the SRM drive system with PFC circuit is also presented. Through the numerical analysis of the system, the toque ripple, power factor and efficiency with the change of rotary speed, load torque and capacity of the capacitor are achieved and compared with actual measured value.

A TrustZone-based rootkit detecting solution using a secure timer ensures the integrity of monitoring system, because ARM TrustZone technology provides isolated environments from a monitored OS against intercepting and modifying invoke commands. However, it is vulnerable to transient attack due to periodic monitoring. Also, Address Translation Redirection Attack (ATRA) cannot be detected, because the monitoring is operated by using the physical address of memory. To ameliorate this problem, we propose a snoop-based kernel introspection system. The proposed system can monitor a kernel memory in real-time by using a snooper, and detect memory-bound ATRA by introspecting kernel pages every context switch of processes. Experimental results show that the proposed system successfully protects the kernel memory without incurring any significant performance penalty in run-time.

We investigated a bias effect for diamond films deposited by a HFCVD(Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition) method using a methane-hydrogen gas mixture. During deposition total chamber pressure, methane concentration, filament temperature and substrate temperature was 20 torr, 1.0%, $2100^{\circ}C$ and $980^{\circ}C$ respectively. Also DC bias was applied during both the nucleation stage and the growth stage systematically. We found that negative bias enhanced the nucleation density at the nucleation stage, but it made a bad influence on the morpholohy of films at the growth stage. Positive bias enhanced the growth rate and resulted in a good morpholohy of films. Therefore we concluded that it was effective to apply the negative bias during the nucleation stage and then to switch into the positive bias during the growth stage in the fabrication of diamond films.
