Recent proteomic studies of protein domains require high-throughput and systematic approaches. Since most experiments using protein domains, the modules of protein-protein interactions, require gene cloning, the first experimental step should be retrieving DNA sequences of domain encoding regions from databases. For a large scale proteomic research, however, it is a laborious task to extract a large number of domain sequences manually from several inter-linked databases. We present a new methodology to retrieve DNA sequences of domain encoding regions through automatic database cross-referencing. To extract protein domain encoding regions, it traverses several inter-connected database with validation process. And we applied this method to retrieve all the EGF domain encoding DNA sequences of homo sapiens. This new algorithm was implemented using Python library PAMIE, which enables to cross-reference across distinct databases automatically.

Due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of installation, wireless smart sensors (WSS) have received considerable recent attention for structural health monitoring of civil infrastructure. Though various wireless smart sensor networks (WSSN) have been successfully implemented for full-scale structural health monitoring (SHM) applications, monitoring of low-level ambient strain still remains a challenging problem for WSS due to A/D converter (ADC) resolution, inherent circuit noise, and the need for automatic operation. In this paper, the design and validation of high-precision strain sensor board for the Imote2 WSS platform and its application to SHM of a cable-stayed bridge are presented. By accurate and automated balancing of the Wheatstone bridge, signal amplification of up to 2507-times can be obtained, while keeping signal mean close to the center of the ADC span, which allows utilization of the full span of the ADC. For better applicability to SHM for real-world structures, temperature compensation and shunt calibration are also implemented. Moreover, the sensor board has been designed to accommodate a friction-type magnet strain sensor, in addition to traditional foil-type strain gages, facilitating fast and easy deployment. The wireless strain sensor board performance is verified through both laboratory-scale tests and deployment on a full-scale cable-stayed bridge.

Laboratory facilities for biology are designed as biosafety level 1, biosafety level 2, biosafety level 3, and biosafety level 4. Biosafety level designations are based on a composite of the design features, construction, containment facilities, equipment, practice and operation procedures required for working with agents from the various risk groups. Generally, biosafety level 3 means the facility that is appropriate for the experiments using pathogens which can cause serious diseases by aerosol transmission. The biosafety level assigned for the specific work to be done is driven by professional judgement based on a risk assessment, rather than by automatic assignment according to the particular risk group designation of the pathogenic agents to be used. In this paper, we introduced the biosafety level 3 facility operated in ADD(Agency for defense development). It contains the overview of facility, microbiological experiment, animal experiment, decontamination and waste disposal. Biosafety level 3 laboratory in ADD has served the vital role in the research of biological agents and antidote development.

커널형 회귀함수의 추정법 중에서 국소 다항회귀 추정법이 가장 우수한 것으로 알려져 있다. 국소다항회귀 추정법에서도 다른 종류의 커널추정량과 마찬가지로 평활량이 중요한 역할을 한다. 특히 회귀함수가 복잡한 구조를 가질 때 변수평활량(variable band-width)을 사용하는 것이 타당할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 완전자료기저(fully automatic, fully data-driven) 변수평활량 선택법을 제안한다. 이 선택법은 편향과 분산의 예비추정에 필요한 평활량을 교차타당성 방법으로 선택하여 MSE를 추정하고 그 값을 최소화하는 평활량을 택하는 것이다. 제안된 방법의 우수성을 모의실험을 통하여 확인하였다. 그리고 제안된 방법은 자료점이 성긴(sparse)부분에서 생길 수 있는 문제점 즉 X'X의 비정칙성(non-singularity)을 해결할 수 있는 방법이라는 데에도 큰 의미가 있다.

In this work, an automatic software verification method for Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) protection system is developed. This method utilizes Colored Petri Net (CPN) for system modeling and Prototype Verification System (PVS) for mathematical verification. In order to help flow-through from modeling by CPN to mathematical proof by PVS, an information extractor from CPN models has been developed in this work. In order to convert the extracted information to the PVS specification language, a translator also has been developed. ML that is a higher-order functional language programs the information extractor and translator. This combined method has been applied to a protection system function of Wolsong NPP SDS2(Steam Generator Low Level Trip). As a result of this application, we could prove completeness and consistency of the requirement logically. Through this work, in short, an axiom or lemma based-analysis method for CPN models is newly suggested in order to complement CPN analysis methods and a guideline for the use of formal methods is proposed in order to apply them to NPP Software Verification and Validation.

A new method of automatic recording raingauge is developed to measure rainfall with 0.01mm resolution. This use two different signals to measure rainfall more accurately compare than other raingauges. One is weight of the tipping bucket with rainfall amount and the other is pulse from tipping bucket reverse. New method applied 1 mm tipping bucket mechanism and install loadcell under tipping bucket mechanism for measuring rainfall weight. Loadcell measure weight of rainfall until 1 mm with 0.01 mm resolution and more than 1 mm than bucket reverse and pulse signal generate, after that loadcell measure weight again. The validation of new instrument was examined in the room 65 mm/hour rainfall rate total 53 mm range. There is below than 1 % error of absolute rainfall amount and 0.01 mm resolution. The field test of instrument was carried out by comparing its measured values with values recorded by weight type and standard type on June 1 2003 at Terrestrial Environmental Research Center at Tsukuba University in Tsukuba of Japan, when it has recorded total amount of 40.58 mm rainfall by standard raingauge and new raingauge recorded 41.032 mm. Same rainfall intensity pattern observed in field observation with weight type raingauge. Rainfall intensity between weight type and Lee-A type raingauge reached 0.9947 correlation in 3 minute average.

PURPOSES : This study demonstrates the need for the collection of road weather information in order to perform efficient snow removal works during the winter season. Snow removal operations are usually dependent upon weather information obtained from the Automatic Weather Station provided by the Korea Meteorological Administration. However, there are some difference between road weather and weather forecasts in their scope. This is because general weather forecasts are focused on macroscopic standpoints rather than microscopic perspectives. METHODS : In this study, the relationship between snow removal works and historical weather forecasts are properly analyzed to prove the importance of road weather information. We collected both weather data and snow removal works during winter season at "A" regional offices in Gangwon areas. RESULTS : Results showed that the validation of weather forecasts for snow removal works were depended on the height difference between AWS location and its neighboring roadway. CONCLUSIONS : Namely, it appears that road weather information should be collected where AWS location and its neighboring roadway have relatively big difference in their heights.

This paper focuses on the formulation and validation of an automatic strategy for the selection of the locations and directions of strain gauges to capture at best the modal response of a blade in a series of modes. These locations and directions are selected to render the strain measurements as robust as possible with respect to random mispositioning of the gauges and gauge failures. The approach relies on the evaluation of the signal-to-noise ratios of the gauge measurements from finite element strain data and includes the effects of gauge size. A genetic algorithm is used to find the strain gauge locations-directions that lead to the largest possible value of the smallest modal strain signal-to-noise ratio, in the absence of gauge failure, or of its expected value when gauge failure is possible. A fan blade is used to exemplify the applicability of the proposed methodology and to demonstrate the effects of the essential parameters of the problem, i.e. the mispositioning level, the probability of gauge failure, and the number of gauges.

This paper presents the Matlab/Simulink-based software-in-the-loop simulation(SILS) environment which is the co-simulator for temporal and functional simulations of control systems. The temporal behavior of a control system is strongly dependent on the implemented software and hardware such as the real-time operating system, the target CPU, and the communication protocol. The proposed SILS abstracts the system with tasks, task executions, real-time schedulers, and real-time networks close to the implementation. Methods to realize these components in graphical block representations are investigated with Matlab/Simulink, which is most commonly used tool for designing and simulating control algorithms in control engineering. In order to achieve a seamless development from SILS to rapid control prototyping (RCP), the SILS block-set is designed to support automatic code generation without tool changes and block modifications.
