Over the past decade or so, dramatic developments in our ability to experimentally determine the content and function of genomes have taken place. In particular, next-generation sequencing technologies are now inspiring a new understanding of bacterial transcriptomes on a global scale. In bacterial cells, whole-transcriptome studies have not received attention, owing to the general view that bacterial genomes are simple. However, several recent RNA sequencing results are revealing unexpected levels of complexity in bacterial transcriptomes, indicating that the transcribed regions of genomes are much larger and complex than previously anticipated. In particular, these data show a wide array of small RNAs, antisense RNAs, and alternative transcripts. Here, we review how current transcriptomics are now revolutionizing our understanding of the complexity and regulation of bacterial transcriptomes.

We report a method for optical monitoring of tumors in an animal model using optical coherence tomography (OCT). In a spectral domain OCT system, a superluminescent diode light source with a full width of 66 nm at half maximum and peak wavelength of 950 nm was used to take images having an axial resolution of 6.8 ${\mu}m$. Cancer cells of PC-3 were cultured and inoculated into the hypodermis of auricle tissues in BALB/c nude mice. We observed tumor formation and growth at the injection region of cancer cells in vivo and obtained the images of tumor mass center and sparse circumferences. On the $5^{th}$ day from an inoculation of cancer cells, histological images of the tumor region using cross-sectional slicing and dye staining of specimens were taken in order to confirm the correlation with the high resolution OCT images. The OCT image of tumor mass compared with normal tissues was analyzed using its A-scan data so as to obtain a tissue attenuation rate which increases according to tumor growth.

Several attempts have been made to add journaling capability to a traditional file allocation table (FAT) file system. However, they encountered issues such as excessive system load or instability of the journaling data itself. If journaling data is saved as a file format, it can be corrupted by a user application. However, if journaling data is saved in a fixed area such as a reserved area, the storage can be physically corrupted because of excessive system load. To solve this problem, a new method that dynamically allocates journaling data is introduced. In this method, the journaling data is not saved as a file format. Using a reserved area and reserved FAT status entry of the FAT file system specification, the journaling data can be dynamically allocated and cannot be accessed by user applications. The experimental results show that this method is more stable and scalable than other log-based FAT file systems. HFAT was tested with more than 12,000 power failures and was stable.

In this study, a multilevel visible light communication (VLC) system based on resistor ladder circuit is designed to transmit medical data. VLC technology is being considered as an alternative wireless communication due to various advantages such as ubiquity, license free operation, low energy consumption, and no radio frequency (RF) radiation characteristics. With VLC even in places where traditional RF communication (e.g., Wi-Fi) is forbidden, significant bio-medical signal including the electrocardiography (ECG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) data can be transmitted. More lives could be saved anywhere by this potential advantage of VLC with a fast emergency response time. A multilevel transmission scheme is adopted to improve the data capacity with keeping simplicity, where data transmission rate can increase by log2m times (m is the number of voltage levels) than that of conventional VLC transmission based on on/off keying. In order to generate multi-amplitudes, resistor ladder circuit, which is a basic principle of digital to analog convertor, is employed, and information is transferred through LED (Light-Emitting Diode) with different voltage level. In the receiver side, multilevel signal is detected by optical receiver including a photo diode. Then, the collected data are analyzed to serve the necessary medical care to the concerned patient.

In this study, we developed the Soil Moisture Data Assimilation (SMDA) scheme to extract Effective Soil Characteristics-ESC (Sand, Silt, Clay %) from MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) products. The SMDA scheme was applied to the MODIS-based Soil Moisture (SM) data during the summer (July to September) period. Then the ESC and soil erosion factors (K) were predicted, respectively. Several numerical experiments were conducted to test the performance of SMDA at the study sites under the synthetic and field validation conditions. In the synthetic experiment, the estimated soil moistures values(R: >0.990 and RMSE: <0.005) were identified well with the synthetic observations. The field validation results at the Bangdongri and Chungmicheon sites were also comparable to the TDR-based measurements with the statistics (R: 0.772/0.000 and RMSE: 0.065/0.000). The estimated ESC values were also matched well with the measurements for the synthetic and field validation conditions. Then we tested the SMDA scheme to extract the ESC from the MODIS-based soil moisture products. Although uncertainties exist in the results, the estimated soil moisture and ESC based on the SMDA were comparable to the measurements. Overall, the K factors were similarly distributed based on the derived ESC. Also, the K factors in the mountainous regions were higher than those of the relatively flat areas. Thus, the newly developed SMDA scheme can be useful to estimate spatially and temporally-distributed soil erosion and establish soil erosion management plans.

The trans-$A_2B_2$ porphyrin and Ni-porphyrin derivatives were synthesized by Suzuki coupling of bromoporphyrin with arylborate as a key step. The band gaps of those complexes were measured from their absorption, emission and cyclic voltammetric data. All the LUMO energy level of porphyrin derivatives is lower than that of P3HT, and the HOMO energy level is evaluated higher than the HOMO of PCBM.

시설의 냉ㆍ난방시스템 최적 설계를 위해서나 시스템의 연간 에너지 소요량 산정을 위해서는 동적열부하계산을 시행해야 한다. 이를 위해서는 어느 지역의 표준적인 기상상황을 총합적으로 파악해야 하는데 이는 단순히 각 기상자료의 월평균치를 사용하는 것으로는 불충분하며, 중요한 기상요소들을 종합적으로 고려한 인위적인 기상자료를 필요로 한다. (중략)

온실의 환경설계 중에서 가장 기본이 되는 냉ㆍ난방 설비용량의 결정을 위하여는 설계외기온(냉ㆍ난방설계), 외기의 습구온도 및 수평면 일사량(냉방설계)과 같은 기상자료가 필요하다. 시설재배에 있어서 환경설비의 용량 부족은 혹한기 또는 혹서기에 작물의 생육에 치명적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 또한 설비용량의 과대설계는 설치비 면에서 비경제적일 뿐만 아니라 에너지의 효율적 이용 측면에서도 불리하므로 적정 설비용량의 결정은 매우 중요하고, 따라서 설계용 기상자료의 선택은 매우 신중을 기하여야 한다. (중략)
