Application of WBAN technology in medical field facilitates the prevention of diseases by collecting the vital signs remotely. It also enables to prevent the accidental emergency situation in advance plus long-tem monitoring of patients with chronic diseases such as heart diseases, hypertension, or the elderly and infirm. For emergency patients, major vital signal information collected by the 'Sensing' should have the top priority and such information should be transferred as promptly as possible without competition. In addition, when an emergency occurs to a patient, a priority mechanism is necessitated for a urgent message to get through to the final destination. However, LR-WPAN IEEE 802.15.4 technology does not consider such emergency message handling features. To deal with aforementioned issues, the IEEE 802.15.4 super frame protocol structure has been designed for stable transfer of emergency information in WBAN environment in this study, and alternation to super frame structures have been made, allowing GTS(Guaranteed Time Slot) can be used first at CFP (Contention Free Period) by reserving the resources in advance and prioritize the emergency signals. NS-2 has been utilized for the performance test and analysis.

The active network is a new networking approach to allow new protocols to be developed easily by solving the limitation of the existing protocol development procedure and the long protocol standardization process. So far many research institutes and universities have proposed active node architectures and active packet formats, but still there are some problems needed to be solved. One of them is the active packet format and the routing approach which consider the requirements of various active applications. Therefore, in this paper, we figure cut the requirements of various active applications and design four types of active packet formats that reflect these requirements and propose routing schemes appropriate for these characteristics. Also we propose an active node architecture which reflect these requirements.

Radiation has stochastic aspects in its generation, its choice of interaction mode during traveling in media, and its impact on living bodies. In certain circumstances, like in high dose environments resulting from low-LET radiation, the variance in its impact on a target volume is negligible. On the contrary, in low dose environments, especially when they are attributed to high-LET radiation, the impact on the target carries with it a large variance. This variation is more significant for smaller target volumes. Microdosimetric techniques, which have been developed to estimate the distribution of radiation energy deposited to cellular and subcellular-sized targets, contrast with macrodosimetric techniques which count only the average value. Since cells and DNA compounds are the critical targets in human bodies, microdosimetry, or dose estimation by microscopic approach, helps one better analyze the biological effects of radiation on the human body. By utilizing microbeam systems designed for individual cell irradiation, scientists have discovered that human cells exhibit radiosensitive reactions without being hit themselves (bystander effect). During the past 10 or more years, a new therapeutic protocol using discontinuous multiple micro-slit beams has been investigated for its clinical application. It has been suggested that the beneficial bystander effect is the essence of this protocol.

WBAN (Wearable Body Area Network)는 옷이나 몸에 이식된 디바이스들이 몸을 중심으로 결합이나 통신하는 네트워크를 뜻한다. 여기서 사람이 몸에 착용하는 장치인 웨어러블 디바이스는 가벼운 형태의 배터리를 요구한다. 그로 인해, 다른 기기들과는 달리 짧은 배터리 수명을 가질 뿐만 아니라 통신에 관한 제약을 발생시킨다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 저전력 프로토콜을 지원하는 다중대역 웨어러블 디바이스 제어 시스템을 제안한다. 이를 위해 BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) 기반의 프로토콜 스택으로 BLE, 6LoWPAN (IPv6 over Low power WPAN), CoAP (Constrained Application Protocol)을 적용해 데이터 패킷 크기를 감소 시키고 BLE/Wi-Fi 선택 기능을 통해 통신 제약을 완화하고 전체적인 WBAN 에서의 소비 전력을 감소하고자한다.

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of the abdominal drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) for contraction training of transversus abdominis (TrA) to the patient with chronic low back pain (CLBP). Methods: A 37-year female patient with CLBP participated in study. This study was fix to method of ADIM that maintain to draw in lower abdomen in sitting position on chair and fix 1 time protocol that perform rest for 1-min and ADIM for 1-min during 10-min. Hereunder the subject performed 2 times protocol during 30-min. Measurement method were visual analogue scale (VAS), Korean version of Oswestry disability index (KODI) and using ultrasound imaging. Results: VAS was decreased 5cm to 1cm after intervention 3 weeks, KODI was decreased 22% to 9% after intervention 3 weeks and changes in thickness of the TrA were increased 32% to 68% during ADIM. Conclusions: These findings suggest that performed the ADIM took effect for decreased pain and functional disability level with increased changes in thickness of the TrA. Therefore, patients with CLBP should be use for training of deep abdominal muscles apply to the ADIM.

Since the error control problem is a critical and sensitive issue in the one-way network, we can adopt a forward error correction code method or data retransmission method based on the response of reception result. In this paper, we propose error control method and continuous data transmission protocol in the one-way network which has unidirectional data transmission channel and special channel to receive only the response of reception result. Furthermore we present data encryption and key update mechanism which is based on the pre-shared key distribution scheme and suggest some ASDU(Application Service Data Unit) formats to implement it in the one-way network.

This is the first part of the four-part paper describing the development of a packet-switched computer network named the KORNET In this paper, we present the overview of the KORNET, and discuss various aspects on the development of the netwo management center (NMC). The NMC acts as a nerve center of the network, performing such functions as network monitoring, subscriber and network management and routing manage-ment using operator dialogues. In the implementation of the NMC, we have developed various application softwares that include operator interface, primary/srcondary pan, session layer and packet level adaptor. As for packet, link and physical level protocols, we have modified the XODIAC X.25 originally developed by Data General, Inc. All the net-work protocols we have developed comply completely with the CCITT recommendations.

In this paper, we propose a new node architecture LonWorh control Network for home network system environmint using power line communications. Using conventional Lon Work technology is a many disputable points for home network. LonWork network system needs high-cost development equipment. Moreover, conventional Lon Work system can not implement high-grade algorithms and variety application operation. because of the limitation of processing ability in Neuron chip. For that reason, the proposed structure is applicable to low-cost and more complex applications which are impossible in home network using conventional Lonworks structure. The proposed structure is implemented with some hardware and かone software for power line home network. The physical layer and the MAC layer of the LonTalk protocol within ton Work are implemented in hardware, which decreases the development costs communication processor. The upper of link layer of the LonTalk protocol is implemented with software, which decreases the development costs of software and increases the flexibility of tile system and increases the extension of the system. We verified the commercial feasibility of the proposed system through the power line tests with the existing LonWorks network in home network. As a result, it is concluded that the proposed architecture provides increasing flexibility and decreasing cost of the system.
