This study aims to identify negotiation alternatives related to Post-2012 reducing emissions from deforestation (RED) and enhancement of forest carbon stock (EFCS) activities. It also aims to recommend a negotiation strategy considering environmental integrity and national interest on the basis of estimating reduction potentials of each alternative on the assumption that tradable carbon credits play an important role as positive incentives. In order to estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction potentials and income potential from RED and EFCS activities, 99 countries were selected by the Global Forest Resources Assessment of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. A 'baseline and credit' method was applied to estimate RED activities. Gross-net and net-net methods were applied for EFCS activities. According to the results, Brazil, Indonesia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo have more potential to get positive incentives through RED, while China, Chile, and the Republic of Korea have more potential to get positive incentives through EFCS. This study suggests including both RED and EFCS activities in the boundary of policy approaches and endowment of positive incentives to consider GHG reduction potentials in the global scale and equity among developing countries. Making a discount rate application of forest management activities can be also recommended to factor out the effects of human-induced activities by EFCS activities.

This paper reported the establishment of mass production system of adventitious roots of Codonopsis lanceolata through shake flask and bioreactor culture. Induction of adventitious roots was started from the explants of leaf, stem and root on 1/2 strength Murashing and Skoog (MS) solid medium. Stem segments were the best explants for induction of adventitious roots compared to leaf and root segments. Among the different auxins tested (NAA, IBA and IAA), number of adventitious root per explant was highest on solid medium with 1.0 mg/L IBA, and produced $9.9{\pm}1.2$ roots per explant. However, growth of adventitious roots was fast in the presence of IBA at low concentration (0.1 mg/L). In shake flask culture, maximum production of adventitious roots (fresh weight) was obtained in half-strength MS medium compared to full-strength and one-third MS medium. When the adventitious roots produced in shake-flask culture were transferred to 5 L air-lift bioreactor, 16 times of fresh weight increase was gained after one month of culture. These results indicate that this protocol for the production of C. lanceolata adventitious roots can be applied to large scale culture for practical application.

In worldwide, viral diseases of apple plants has caused the serious problems like reduced production and malformation of fruits. Also, the damages of apple plants by virus and/or viroid infection (Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus, Apple stem grooving virus, Apple mosaic virus, and Apple scar skin viroid) were reported in Korea. However there is few report about the protection approach against the infection by apple viruses. Therefore, this paper introduced the experimental protocol for the development of virus-free apple cultivars (Danhong, Hongan, Saenara, Summerdream). Apple plants were treated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks and shoot tips were cultured in vitro. After heat treatment, the detection of apple viruses was performed by RT-PCR using virusspecific detection primers in new apple cultivars. With the heat treatments followed by in vitro shoot tip culture, the proportion of virus-free stocks of 'Danhong', 'Hongan', 'Saenara', and 'Summerdream' was 28%, 16%, 12%, and 12%, respectively. Taken together, this approach can be a good tool for production of virus-free apple stocks.

A satellite and ground stations which are developed in a program are tested whether the interface between the satellite and ground is well established before satellite operations. These compatibility tests are performed when the satellite is connected with the ground stations after all satellite and ground stations requirements are verified. The content of the RF compatibility test is to check whether the interface requirements which are described on the Interface Control Document are well developed. During the early operation phase and tentative contingency operations of the satellite, KARI ground station uses other oversea ground stations which are located worldwide according to contract between the KARI and the contractor. Since oversea ground stations were not developed for the designated space program, system integrator should check whether the oversea ground stations are satisfied with interface requirements. Using the RF suitcase, RF interface and the content of RF communication can directly be verified during RF compatibility test on oversea ground station without KARI ground station's support. The RF compatibility test using RF suitcase was performed oversea ground stations as well as KARI ground station located on Korea. The content of RF compatibility test was standardized in order to be used at any oversea ground stations, especially fitted for the operations concept of launch and early operations phase. The test content would be RF characteristics, protocol, command loop test, telemetry loop test, and ground station interface test.

Recently, the Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) services have become very common, enabling various Internet-based services as well as watching TV. In the IPTV system, a Set-Top box (STB) plays a key role as a network terminal device that transmits and receives realtime multimedia contents. In addition, the IPTV networks are usually supported by broadband optical fiber-base network such as fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), However, a general IPTV STB is regarded as one of the local area network (LAN)-attached devices while sharing the bandwidth of the LAN (e.g., Ethernet). In order to overcome the limited bandwidth utilization by fully facilitating the broadband bandwidth (e.g., 1 Gbps) of the optical fiber-based network, we propose a new FC (Fiber Channel)-embedded IPTV STB which can be directly attached to the optical fiber network. Then, we verify that the impacts of the proposed FC-embedded IPTV STB by organizing the the FC-AL (Fiber Channel-Arbitration Loop) network equipped with the FC-embedded IPTV We measures the average Start-up Delay, Average Reject Ratio and the Number of Concurrent Users through extensive simulations to investigate the performances of the suggested FC-AL-based IPTV network. Surprisingly, the IPTV network architecture with the proposed FC-embedded IPTV STBs has an excellent average start-up delay of less than 10 msec, an acceptable average reject ratio of less than 3 % as well as a linear increase of the number of concurrent users when extending the architecture. This reveals that the proposed FC embedded STB has a superior impacts on the performance of the entire IPTV network by effectively utilizing the broadband bandwidth of the fiber optic-based network.

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a member of the glycoprotein hormone family which includes FSH, hCG, TSH. These hormone family is characterized by a heterodimeric structure composed a common $\alpha$-subunit noncovalently linked to a hormone specific $\beta$-subunit. The correct conformation of the heterodimer is also important for efficient secretion, hormone-specific post-translational modifications, receptor binding and signal transduciton. To determine $\alpha$ and $\beta$-subunits can be synthesized as a single polypeptide chain (tethered-hCG) and also display biological activity, the tethered-hCG molecule by fusing the carboxyl terminus of the hCG $\beta$-subunit to the amino terminus of the $\alpha$-subunit was constructed and transfected into chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells. We also constructed C-terminal deletion mutants (D9l, D89, D88, D87, D86, D84, D83) of single chain hCG to determine the biological function (secretion, LH-activity, receptor binding, cAMP production) of these mutants. Between six and eight stably transfected pools of cells expressing wild type and mutant hCGs were selected for neomycin resistant. The hCGs secreted by the stably transfected cells into serum-free media were collected and quantified by radioimmunoassay, as described in protocol (DPC(hCG IRMA). LH activity was in terms of testosterone production and aromatase activity in primary cultured rat Leydig cells. The tethered-wthCG was efficiently secreted and showed similar LH-like activity to the dimeric hCG. The D83hCG mutant was not detected in this assay. It is suggest that hCG C-terminal part is very important for hCG secretion. Now, we checking the LH-like activity of these mutant hCGs. These data indicate that the constructs of tethered molecule will be useful in the study of mutants that affect subunit association and/or secretion.

Recently, public home have used a more than two computer connected with network, and several home appliances using independently with internet or network are developing to be related closely with the network. Therefore, the home utilized for a simple terminal of the global network in the past is being expanded to another part of the sub network. For a variety of connecting home-area protocols with the existing existing network, we require a new Residential Gateway(RG) that does not only make the home-area network operating in the sub network but also connects to the external network. In this paper, RG has intrinsic limits against flexible service due to IP address assignment and hardware capacity. In order to solve this problem in the RG, we propose a Management Server(MS). The MS that offers the integrated managements and control services for a variety of devices connected the RG in the home-area. It can not only solve the dynamic IP address assigning problem but also assigns private IP addresses to the home network devices through the Network Address Translation(NAT). It also provides somewhat useful functions for the home network and the RG for other additional services. <중략> The MS is using a SNMP protocol for managing the RG in the domain, a polling method of the MS and the RG compose a sequence polling method, a polling method using a multi-process and a multi-thread. In this paper, we introduce a problem with polling method separately, show a polling method between the MS and the RG using a multi-thread.

High-availability seamless redundancy (HSR) is a protocol for fault-tolerant Ethernet (FTE) networks. It provides two frame copies and each copy is forwarded on a separate physical path, which provides zero fail-over time. Therefore, the HSR is becoming a potential candidate for various real-time FTE applications. However, the generation and circulation of unnecessary frames due to the duplication of every sending frame is inherent drawback of HSR. Such drawback degrades the performance of the network and may deplete its resources. In this paper, we present a new algorithm called port locking (PL) based on the media access control (MAC) address to solve the abovementioned problem in popular connected-rings network. Our approach makes the network gradually learn the locations of the source and the destination nodes without relying on network control frames. It then prunes all the rings that do not contain the destination node by locking corresponding rings' entrance ports. With the PL algorithm, the traffic can be significantly reduced and therefore the network performance will be greatly enhanced specially in a large scale connected-rings network. Analytical results are provided to validate the PL algorithm.
