Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is a novel method to fabricate nanometer scale patterns. It is a simple process with low cost, high throughput and high resolution. NIL process creates patterns by the mechanical deformation of imprint resist and physical contact process. This physical contact process causes the stiction between the resist and the stamp. Stiction becomes a key issue especially in the stamps including narrow pattern size and wide area during NIL process development. The antistiction layer coating using fluorocarbon is very effective to prevent this problem and ensure successful NIL. In this paper, the concept of antistiction coating is explained and different preparation methods for nanoimprinting are briefly discussed.

The field of body sensor networks has attracted interest of many researchers due to its potential to revolutionize medicine. These sensors are usually implanted inside the human body and communicate among themselves. In the process of receiving, processing, or transmitting data, these devices produce heat. This heat damages the tissues surrounding the devices in the case of prolonged exposure. In this paper, to reduce this damages, we have improved and evaluated two protocols-the least temperature routing protocol and adaptive least temperature routing protocol-by implementing clustering as well as a leadership rotation algorithm. We used Castalia to simulate a basic body area network cluster composed of 6 nodes. A throughput application was used to simulate all the nodes sending data to one sink node. Simulations results shows that improved communication protocol with leadership rotation algorithm significantly reduce the energy consumption as compared to a scheme without leadership rotation algorithm.

In the intelligent integrated systems, the delay time must be reduced using highly parallel processors, as well as high throughput performance. In this paper, we propose a new concept for building 3D highly parallel processors using multi-layer printed wiring boards with built-in soldering heater (BISH-PWB). The proposed BISH is realized with the long and narrow cupper wiring pattern on the internal layer in the terminal pattern area. Based on the linearity of the cupper resistance vs. temperature, we can measure the BISH, temperature and its calorific value from the heater voltage and current measurements. If we provide the BISH temperature control systems for each BISH, selective multi-point soldering can be realized with same ...

An arry circuit is designed for parallel computation of vector-radix 2-D discrete cosine transform (VR-FCT) which is a fast algorithm of DCT. By using a 2-D array of processing elements (PEs), the butterfly structure of the VR-FCT can be efficiently implemented with high condurrency and local communication geometry. The proposed implementation features architectural medularity, regularity and locality, so that it is very suitable for VLSI realization. Also, no transposition memory is required. The array core for (8$\times$8) 2-D DCT, which is designed usign ISRC 1.5.mu.m N-Well CMOS technology, consists of 64 PEs arranged in (8$\times$8) 2-D array and contains about 98,000 transistors on an area of 138mm$^{2}$. From simulation results, it is estimated that (8$\times$8) 2-D DCT can be computed in about 0.88 .mu.sec at 50 MHz clock frequency, resulting in the throughput rate of about 72${\times}10^[6}$ pixels per second.

In this paper, we suggest a simple and efficient multiple-forwarder-based file distribution method which can work with a tree-based application layer multicast. Existing multiple-forwarder approaches require high control overhead. The proposed method exploits the assumption that receivers join a session at different times. In tree-based application layer multicast, a set of data packets is delivered from its parent after a receiver has joined but before the next receiver joins without overlapping that of other receivers. The proposed method selects forwarders from among the preceding receivers and the forwarder forwards data packets from the non-overlapping data packet set. Three variations of forwarder selection algorithms are proposed. The impact of the proposed algorithms is evaluated using numerical analysis. A performance evaluation using PlanetLab, a global area overlay testbed, shows that the proposed method enhances throughput while maintaining the data packet duplication ratio and control overhead significantly lower than the existing method, Bullet.

실내.외 환경에서 무선을 이용하여 데이터를 송수신하는 무선 LAN(Local Area Network)은 고속성과 이동성의 우수성으로 인하여 관심이 고조되고 있고, ETSI에 의한 HIPERLAN/2 와 IEEE 802.11 가 5㎓ 주파수대역에서 표준화되었고 개발 중이다. 본 논문에서는 향후 서비스 예정인 802.11a 무선랜간 간섭을 최소화시키기 위해 셀간 거리를 얼마나 이격 시켜야 되는지에 대하여 다룬다. 먼저 표준화 내용을 바탕으로 802.11a 무선랜의 C/I 비에 따른 성능평가를 수행하였고, 거리에 따른 처리율(throughput)을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 그리고 동일한 주파수를 사용하는 동일 셀에 의한 간섭의 영향을 보기 위하여 최악을 시나리오를 가정하여, 셀간 거리에 따른 무선랜의 성능의 변화를 보았고, 간섭을 최소화시키기 위해 최소한의 이격거리를 제안하였다.

In this paper, a new hardware-software patitioning algorithm is presented, in which the system behavioral description containing a mixture of hardware and softwae components is partitioned into the hardware part and the software part. In this research, new techniques to optimally partition a mixed system under certain specified constaints such as performance, area, and delay, have been developed. During the partitioning process, the overhead due to the communication between the hardware and software parts are considered. New featues have been added to adjust the hierarchical level of partitioning. Power consumption, memory cost, and the effect of pipelining can also be considered during partitioning. Another new feature is the ability to partition a DSP system under throughput constraints. This feature is important for real time processing. The developed partitioning system can also be used to evaluate various design alternatives and architectures.

In DQDB networks, the bandwidth can be increased considerably be using the EN(Erasure Node) algorithms and DR(Destination Release) algorithms. However, the important issue in implementing them is using method of extra capacity fairly. To improve it, this paper proposes AEN(Adaptive Erasure Node) algorithm which erasure function is activated by network traffic load. Its functional architecture consists of SESM, RCSM, LMSM in addition to the basic DQDB state machines (DQSM, RQM). The SESM and RCSM state machines are placed in front of the DQSM and RQM state machines in order for the node to take advantage of the newly cleared slots. This paper also presents some simulation results showing the effect of AEN algorithm on access delay, throughput and segment erasing ratio in the single and multiple priority networks. The results show that the AEN algorithm offer the better performance characteristics than existing algorithms under overload conditions.

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a term that means post-Sanger sequencing methods with high-throughput sequencing technologies. NGS parallelizes the sequencing process, producing thousands or millions of sequences at once. The latest NGS technologies use even single DNA molecule as a template and measures the DNA sequence directly via measuring electronic signals from the extension or degradation of DNA. NGS is making big impacts on biomedical research, molecular diagnosis and personalized medicine. The hospitals are rapidly adopting the use of NGS to help to patients understand treatment with sequencing data. As NGS equipments are getting smaller and affordable, many hospitals are in the process of setting up NGS platforms. In this review, the progress of NGS technology development and action mechanisms of representative NGS equipments of each generation were discussed. The key technological advances in the commercialized platforms were presented. As NGS platforms are a great concern in the healthcare area, the latest trend in the use of NGS and the prospect of NGS in the future in diagnosis and personalized medicine were also discussed.

High-throughput technologies enable the simultaneous evaluation of thousands of genes that could discriminate different subclasses of complex diseases. Ranking genes according to differential expression is an important screening step for follow-up analysis. Many statistical measures have been proposed for this purpose. A good ranked list should provide a stable rank (at least for top-ranked gene), and the top ranked genes should have a high power in differentiating different disease status. However, there is a lack of emphasis in the literature on ranking genes based on these two criteria simultaneously. To achieve the above two criteria simultaneously, we proposed to apply a previously reported metric, the modified area under the receiver operating characteristic cure, to gene ranking. The proposed ranking method is found to be promising in leading to a stable ranking list and good prediction performances of top ranked genes. The findings are illustrated through studies on both synthesized data and real microarray gene expression data. The proposed method is recommended for ranking genes or other biomarkers for high-dimensional omics studies.
