Purpose: This research has been carried out to find out correlation between test results of ABR-2000 and other diagnostic equipments to enhance significance of accurate diagnosis and clinical usage of ABR-2000. Methods: Duration of the 31 months from December 2012 to June 2015, records of 564 outpatients at gynecology department have been selected. The 564 patients were tested, using all 3 different test equipments of ABR-2000, DSOM, and 3D Blood Pressure Pulse Analyzer (3D-MAC) without test errors or mis-recordings. Correlation between 3D Blood pressure Pulse Analyzer, DSOM and ABR-2000 were analyzed by frequency & ratio factor of statistic data records of patients groups devided by 8 different disease symptom and by comparison of the groups in the form of Regulation and Graph presented on ABR-2000 equipment. Results: 1. The indicator L in all 1, 2, and 3 quadrant in the graph means the activity and reactivity of the upper body biodynamics detection rate is low and which result is very common symptom among gynecological patients. 2. The portion of patients with hypermenorrhea, endometritis, and menstrual pain symptom among the indicator L group in the reactivity 1-3 quadrantin is significantly high. 3. When 3D Mac analyzer indicates H, diastole decreases while systole increases and tachycardia increases then the blood circulation is expected to increase. In case of indication L, diastole increases and systole decreases then, the blood circulation is expected to decrease.

Recently, we are concerned with effective service according as the demand increase for high speed data service. We can use high speed transfer and multiple traffic service on the ATM networks, so we concentrate on preventive-control method rather than reactive-control one. But it is possible to have low QoS and traffic congestion due to unpredictable traffic and burst traffic. Specially, ATM Forum has discussed to standardization of traffic management of ABR(Available Bit Rate) service. Because ABR traffic controls the flow of traffic using the feedback information and the current status information of cell, it allocates bandwidth systematically and dynamically to the user. In this paper, we propose a new Rate-based flow control scheme which adapted double threshold buffer idea. The double threshold buffer controls the traffic control by establishing two threshold in buffer.

Background and Objectives: No known studies have investigated the influence of stimulus polarity on the Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) elicited from level-specific (LS) chirp. This study is important as it provides a better understanding of the stimulus polarity selection for ABR elicited from LS chirp stimulus. We explored the influence of stimulus polarity on the ABR from LS chirp compared to the ABR from click at 80 dBnHL in normal-hearing adults. Subjects and Methods: Nineteen adults with normal hearing participated. The ABRs were acquired using click and LS chirp stimuli using three stimulus polarities (rarefaction, condensation, and alternating) at 80 dBnHL. The ABRs were tested only on the right ear at a stimulus rate of 33.33 Hz. The ABR test was stopped when the recording reached the residual noise level of 0.04 μV. The ABRs amplitudes, absolute latencies, inter-peak latencies (IPLs), and the recorded number of averages were statistically compared among ABRs at different stimulus polarities and stimuli combinations. Results: Rarefaction polarity had the largest ABR amplitudes and SNRs compared with other stimulus polarities in both stimuli. There were marginal differences in the absolute latencies and IPLs among stimulus polarities. No significant difference in the number of averages required to reach the stopping criteria was found. Conclusions: Stimulus polarities have a significant influence on the ABR to LS chirp. Rarefaction polarity is recommended for clinical use because of its larger ABR peak I, III, and V amplitudes than those of the other stimulus polarities.

ABR 은 ATM의 서비스 중에서 가장 최근에 추가된 것으로서 트래픽 소스의 전송률을 제어하기 위해서 피드백 메커니즘을 사용한다. ABR 서비스의 성능은 스위치를 통해서 피드백되는 RM 셀에 의해서 결정적인 영향을 받는다. ATM 표준에는 EPRCA, CAPC, ERICA 등의 알고리즘을 다루고 있다. 하지만 이러한 스위치 알고리즘에 대한 성능평가 및 분석 은 자세히 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 사용중인 ABR 스위치 알고리즘 중 단순히 큐의 길이에 위해 폭주를 판단하는 EPRCA 방법에 대해서 자세히 분석하고 EPRCA 의 단점을 극복하기 위해서 큐의 길이뿐만 아니라 새로운 변수 즉 평균 분산 및 표준편차을 이용해서 각 송신원의 공정성을 높이고 시스템의 효율성을 증대시키는 방안을 제시한다.

초고속통신의 실현과 다양한 멀티미디어정보의 QoS를 향상시키기 위한 ATM 방식은 TCP/IP 통신의 기본적인 전송 매카니즘으로 사용되고 있다. TCP가 ATM 망에서의 ABR서비스를 사용할 때 ABR의 율 기반 제어와 TCP 흐름제어사이에 상호작용이 없는 한, 이런 환경하에서 ATM망의 ABR 트래픽을 좀더 효율적으로 제어하기위해서는 EFCI-ER 스위치 방식의 상호혼용 운영이 불가피하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 상호혼용을 위하여 EFCI-ER 스위치의 혼용망을 모델로 하여 여러 가지 ER 스위치 알고리즘을 이용하여 대역할당의 공정성 셀손실을 그리고 처리율을 구하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과로써 여러 가지 ER 스위치 알고리즘중에서 망의 형태에 영향을 덜 받으면서 VC(Virtual Channel) 에 공정하게 대역폭을 할당할 수 있는 하나의 알고리즘을 나타내었다.

As the proliferation of multimedia traffic over High-speed Internet increases, ATM network will be vital to adopt as backbone network over various parts of Internet. In this paper, we investigate the performance of TCP/IP traffic flow over ABR and UBR of ATM service to study for the high throughput and good fairness by simulation technique. Although TCP is run in the transport layer, it is controlled by several methods, e.g, EPD, PPD, RED, EFCI, ER etc, in ATM layer when TCP uses the ABR/UBR service. Therefore, if one cell is discarded in ATM layer, a packet of TCp will be laost. And, also, along with the increasing of the number of VC among switches, the throughput and fairness will be degraded. In order to improve these degradations, we propose the effective parameter control operations of EFCI and ER on ABR service, and also suggest the buffer management methods on UBR service. Finally, through the simulation results, the improved throughput and fairness are shown.

Performance of an airlift bioreactor (ABR) containing the immobilized microorganisms was evaluated in an integrated pilot scale recirculating aquaculture system stocked with Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) at an initial rearing density of $5\%$ and compared to a rotating biological contactor (RBC) for 40 days. The TAN concentration of rearing tank for ABR and RBC were maintained at $0.4\;g/m^3$ and $0.5\;g/m^3,$ respectively, The nitrite nitrogen was completely removed by the ABR. The ABR's aeration was more stable than the RBC's. On the whole, the feasibility of ABR as an aquacultural water treatment unit was recognized.

Purpose: To assess the possibility of using panoramic indices as an indicator of jaw osteoporosis. Methods: Mandibular cortical width (MCW), degree of mandibular alveolar bone resorption (ABR) and morphology of mandibular inferior cortex (MIC) on panoramic radiograph were used as panoramic indices. These panoramic indices were compared with bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar (L1-L4) and femoral neck measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. We also compared MCW and ABR of young men with those of postmenopausal women. Results : There was a significant correlation between ABR and BMD of lumbar and femoral neck. And also significant correlation between MIC and BMD of lumbar and femoral neck. ANOVA test of BMD of lumbar and femoral neck showed significant differences according to morphologic classification of inferior cortex. There was significant difference in MCW and ABR between young men and postmenopausal women. Conclusion: Our results suggested that ABR and MIC on panoramic radiograph could be reliable in screening of osteoporosis.

In this paper, we propose the interworking and emulation methods for the interoperability of ABR/ABT capability and algo propose the BCR Re-negotition with State-Dependent (BRSD) mechanism based on the common buffer with two thresholds and the EBCN method when public network hs the ABT capability. As BRSD mechansism has one common buffer for all ABR connectiona and BCR re-negotiation request according to the threshold, it can reduce the queue length and the frequency of ABT BCR re-negotiation. Using EBCN method, BRSD mechanism can prevent the continuous increasing of queue length in the emulation method with the CI bit setting of the ABR performance of the BRSD mechanism in the view poits of the masimum queue length, bandwidth utilization and ABT-BCR re-negotialtion frequency trough the simulation.
