The importance of cornified envelope (CE)-bound lipids to epidermal barrier function is increasingly being recognized. In the present study, we intentionally damaged the cornified layer of hairless mice by ultraviolet irradiation and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) treatment, and assessed the changes in epidermal barrier function by measuring Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL). We also measured changes in the amount of CE-bound lipids using thin layer chromatography (TLC). The results showed that both treatments increased TEWL and decreased CE-bound lipids (omega-hydroxy cerami de and omega-hydroxy acid). In addition, investigation of the chronological changes in TEWL revealed an inverse relationship between TEWL and CE-bound lipids, and a correlation between CE-bound lipids and epidermal barrier function. We then measured the amount of CE-bound lipids in the cheek and the medial side of the upper arm in humans. The results showed that because the cheek receives external stimulation on a daily basis, the amount of CE-bound lipids was significantly lower, while the level of TEWL was higher. These observations, together with those from the animal study, indicate that CE-bound lipids are related to epidermal barrier function.

The robust position control with the bound function of neural network structure is proposed for uncertain robot manipulators. The neural network structure presents the bound function and does not need the concave property of the bound function, The robust approach is to solve this problem as uncertainties are included in a model and the controller can achieve the desired properties in spite of the imperfect modeling. Simulation is performed to validate this law for four-axis SCARA type robot manipulators.

We give a constructive proof that a (partial) evaluation of a multivariate algebraic function with algebraic numbers is again an algebraic function. Especially, we obtain a bound on the degree of an evaluation with the degrees of the original algebraic function and the algebraic numbers evaluated. Furthermore, we show that our bound is sharp with an example.

We present an upper bound on the Cheeger constant of a distance-regular graph. Recently, the authors found an upper bound on the Cheeger constant of distance-regular graph under a certain restriction in their previous work. Our new bound in the current paper is much better than the previous bound, and it is a general bound with no restriction. We point out that our bound is explicitly computable by using the valencies and the intersection matrix of a distance-regular graph. As a major tool, we use the discrete Green's function, which is defined as the inverse of ${\beta}$-Laplacian for some positive real number ${\beta}$. We present some examples of distance-regular graphs, where we compute our upper bound on their Cheeger constants.

We computed Cramer-Rao bound for estimating amplitude and decay parameters of exponentially decaying function under Poisson noise. Since Cramer-Rao bound is the lowest variance bound for any unbiased estimator, the computed Cramer-Rao bound can be used for evaluating the performance of estimators under Poisson noise. In addition, we show that the performance of maximum-likelihood estimator is close to the Cramer-Rao bound by simulations.

In this paper we present an error bound for cubic spline approximation of conic section curve. We compare it to the error bound proposed by Floater [1]. The error estimating function proposed in this paper is sharper than Floater's at the mid-point of parameter, which means the overall error bound is sharper than Floater's if the estimating function has the maximum at the midpoint.

With the introduction of a new parameter $n{\geq}1$, Kim generalized an upper bound for the exponential function that implies the inequality between the arithmetic and geometric means. By a change of variable, this generalization is equivalent to exp $(\frac{n(x-1)}{n+x-1})\;\leq\;\frac{n-1+x^n}{n}$ for real ${n}\;{\geq}\;1$ and x > 0. In this paper, we show that this inequality is true for real x > 1 - n provided that n is an even integer.

A robust position control with the bound function of neural network structure is proposed for uncertain robot manipulators. The uncertain factors come from imperfect knowledge of system parameters, payload change, friction, external disturbance, and etc. Therefore, uncertainties are often nonlinear and time-varying. The neural network structure presents the bound function and does not need the concave property of the bound function. The robust approach is to solve this problem as uncertainties are included in a model and the controller can achieve the desired properties in spite of the imperfect modeling. Simulation is performed to validate this law for four-axis SCARA type robot manipulator.

메시지 처리기란 클라이언트들로부터 수신된 다양한 포맷의 메시지를 수신 메시지 별 쓰레드를 생성하여 처리하고 그 결과를 목적지로 전달하는 서버 소프트웨어를 말한다. 본 논문에서는 SEDA(The Stage Event Driven Architecture) 구조의 메시지 처리기에서 각 수행함수가 CPU 또는 IO bound 특성을 가질 수 있다는 점에 착안하여, 수행 함수 별 특성을 고려해 쓰레드를 각 코어에 매핑하는 FC-TM(Function Characteristic aware Thread Mapping) 기법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 메시지 처리에 필요한 각 수행함수의 특성이 정적인 것으로 가정하였다. 따라서 수행 가능한 함수를 미리 프로파일링(profiling)하여 특성을 분석한 후, 실제 수신되는 메시지에 따라 단위시간 당 처리량(throughput)이 최대가 되도록 쓰레드를 매핑하였다. 성능 평가 결과 IO bound한 함수가 특정 비율 이상 있을 경우, 기존 연구보다 단위시간당 처리량이 최대 72%까지 증가하였다.

An improved robust hybrid control law is proposed. This law used the separated bounding function and the stiffness bound. It satisfied the performance though we don't know precise information of contact environments. It guarantees the practical stability in sense of Lyapunov. Simulation was performed to validate this law using a four-axis SCARA type robot manipulator.
