This paper is an acoustic study of neutralization of short tones in Taiwanese. The results show that the two short tones were completely neutralized in juncture position. Since long tones in Taiwanese show complete neutralization in context position, the bidirectionality of tone alternation in Taiwanese Tone Sandhi poses a problem far rule-based approaches, while it is consistent with the hypothesis that both juncture and context tones are listed in the lexicon, instead of one being derived from the other. Moreover, in order to account for the difference between Taiwanese Tone Sandhi and Mandarin Tone Sandhi (which has been proven acoustically to be incomplete neutralization), the Naturalness Hypothesis is proposed, which claims that if the neutralization is phonetically unnatural, then the neutralization is more likely to be lexicalized and show complete neutralization.

Familial form of Alzheimer's disease (FAD) is caused by mutations in presenilin-1 and presenilin-2 (PS2). PS1 and PS2 mutation are known to similar effects on the production of amyloid $\beta$ peptide (A$\beta$) and cause of cell death in the Alzheimer's brain. The importance of the alternation of calcium homeostasis in the neuronal cell death by PS1 mutation in a variety of experimental system has been demonstrated. (omitted)

This paper presents a study on defects in pearlite lamella structure of high carbon steel by means of finite-element method(FEM) simulation. High-carbon pearlite steel wire is characterized by its nano-sized microstructure feature of alternation ferrite and cementite. The likely fatigue crack is located on interface of the lamella structure where the maximum amplitude of the longitudinal shear stress and transverse shear stress was calculated during cyclic loading. The FEM is proposed for maximum shear stress from loading of lamella structure, and a method is predicted to analyze the likely fatigue crack generation. It is possible to obtain the important basic data which can be guaranteed in the ductility of high carbon steel wire by using FEM simulation.

This paper presents the design method for two-dimensional FIR digital filter using optimization scheme. The proposed design method is to extend the optimal one-dimensional filter design algorithm proposed by Parks and McClellan to two-dimensional case. When extending one-dimensional design scheme to two-dimensional one, some problems occur. In this paper we solved the problems by using the least square error model, the two-dimensional Lagrange interpolation, and the modified alternation theory. As a result, the equi-ripple FIR filter is obtained that is more optimal and more specific than the conventional methods.

A 24-year-old woman complained of recurrent episodes of hypersomnia lasting on the average about 15 days with mild mood alternation such as depression and irritability. During interepisode interval, she was free of any symptoms. Depending on the absence of excessive eating and hypersexuality, she was clinically diagnosed as recurrent monosymptomatic hypersomnia or the incomplete form of Kleine-Levin syndrome. When nocturnal polysomnography and multiple sleep latency test were performed 10 days after her recovery from a hypersomnic episode, reduced slow wave sleep % and pathologic daytime sleepiness were still noted. The authors suggest that the clinical recovery in recurrent monosymptomatic hypersomnia precede electrophysiological normalization by several days.

This paper analyzes the state of the art on the non-lethal disabling technologies(NDTs) and provides the direction for the development and use of non-lethal weapons. A dozen categories of NDTs are surveyed and explored for the prospective military operations in the future. These technologies may be mixed and matched for a specific purpose that would be potent yet safer than conventional lethal weapons. Many commonly available technologies that are either directly applicable as NDTs or with some engineering adaptation should be first considered to develope. These are NDTs for anti-mobility as follows: anti-traction technology, polymer agents and combustion alternation technology. Non-lethal weapons especially useful in our situation include destroying weapon-guidance systems, disabling engines of aircrafts and ground vehicles and C4I systems.

This paper suggests the new IP, SIMIP(Simple Mobile IP), which supports a continuous mobility between a static host and a mobile host in the static TCP/IP LAN environment where mobile hosts are overlayed with cells. For designing a mobile protocol, routing optimization is very important, and it is directly related to the management mechanism of a mobile host's location information. When the mobile hosts' location information are centralized, the network has high risk when a centralized device fails. On the other hand, when they are distributed, the above problems are solved. But it requires complicated techniques in order to search the encapsulated addresses. SIMP centralizes mobile hosts' location information, minimizes the risk by automatically substituting the failed default mobile router with one of the multiple general mobile routers, and supports the optimal routing path through "default mobile router path alternation" Then since SIMIP isn't reasonable the operations informations to the chief in military operations room.ions room.

BaTiO$_3$, powders were prepared by sol-gel process from different aging time and reaction temperature. Particle shape, size and crystal structure of prepared $BaTiO_3$ powders were analyzed by SEM, XRD and FT-IR. Effect of aging time alternation didn't particularly show up. Spherical nano-sized $BaTiO_3$ powders were obtained from condition more than reaction temperature $55^{\circ}C$, and obtained sintered $BaTiO_3$ powders of tetragonal phase from heat-treatment at $1,100^{\circ}C$.

In the Japanese language, there is a phonological contrast between not only initial stops, but also non initial in voiced and voiceless sounds. But in the Korean language, voiced sounds do not appear in the initial. Due to this, pronunciation of voiced sounds in the initial will be difficult for Korean. Through this research, I analyzed the minimal pairs by voiced/voiceless sounds of Japanese and Korean, and perception experiment in which Japanese listened to Korean speakers' pronunciations. Japanese pronunciations showed distinct acoustic differences between voiced and voiceless stops, especially in VOT. The duration of vowels after voiced stops was longer than that of voiceless ones. Vowel pitches after voiceless stops were higher. On the other hands, Korean showed three patterns of voiced sounds. There were-VOT values as native speakers, +VOT, and nasal formant tended to occur before prenasalized stops. Koreans pronounced voiceless sounds in strong aspirated, unaspirated, or tense sounds. Finally, Japanese judged sounds with not only -VOT values and prenasalized, but also with +VOT values as voiced. This suggests that we may not consider VOT values as the unique feature of voicing, and that such other phonetic characteristics as the following vowel lengthening should be included here.

We consider the customer order scheduling problem with job capacity restriction where the number of jobs in the shop at the same time is fixed. In the customer order scheduling problem, each job is part of some batch (customer order) and the composition of the jobs (product) in the batch is pre-specified. The objective function is associated with the completion time of the batches instead of the completion time of the jobs. We first summarize the known results for the general customer order scheduling problems. Then, we establish some new properties for the problems with job capacity restriction. For the case of unit processing time with the objective of minimizing makespan, we develop a polynomial-time optimal procedure for the two machine case. For the same problem with a variation of no batch alternation, we also develop a polynomial-time optimal procedure. Then, we show that the problems with the objectives of minimizing makespan and minimizing average batch completion time become NP-hard when there exist arbitrary number of machines. Finally, We propose optimal solution procedures for some special cases.
