The continuous increase in the cost of energy production and concerns for environmental sustainability are leading research communities, governments and industries to amass efforts to reduce energy consumption and global $CO_2$ footprint. Players in the information and communication industry are keen on reducing the operational expenditures (OpEx) and maintaining the profitability of cellular networks. Meanwhile, network virtualization has been proposed in this regard as the main enabler for 5G mobile cellular networks. In this paper, we propose a generic framework of slice resource provisioning and customized physical resource allocation for energy-efficiency and quality of service optimization. In resource slicing, we consider user demand and population resources provisioning scheme aiming to satisfy quality of service (QoS). In customized physical resource allocation, we formulate this problem with an integer non-linear programming model, which is solved by a heuristic algorithm based on minimum vertex coverage. The proposed algorithm is compared with the existing approaches, without consideration of slice resource constraints via system-level simulations. From the perspective of infrastructure providers, traffic is scheduled over a limited number of active small-cell base stations (sc-BSs) that significantly reduce the system energy consumption and improve the system's spectral efficiency. From the perspective of virtual network operators and mobile users, the proposed approach can guarantee QoS for mobile users and improve user satisfaction.

An 8-week of growth feeding trial was conducted to evaluate effects of the experimental extruded pellet (EP), commercial EP and raw fish-based moist pellet (MP) for growing flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Three replicate groups of the fish average weighing 43.5 g were fed four experimental diets (EP1, EP2, EP3 and EP4), four commercial diets (EP5, EP6, EP7 and EP8) and MP. Weight gain of fish fed the EP2, EP3 and EP4 was the highest among treatments, but not significantly different to that of fish fed the EPl, EP7 and MP. Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed the MP were the lowest among treatments, but daily feed intake and daily protein intake of fish fed the MP were the highest among treatments. Moisture, lipid and ash contents of whole body were affected by diets, but protein content was not affected by diets. It is concluded that the dietary formulations used in the EP2, EP3 and EP4 can be applied in the practical exuded pellet feeds for growing flounder of 42-108g size.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of extruded pellet (EP) diets, as compared to a raw fish moist pellet (MP) diet for olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, grown in commercial-scale aquaculture for 1 year. Four diets with duplication per diet were formulated for this experiment: two experimental EP diets (EP1 and EP2), one commercial EP diet (CEP), and a raw fish MP diet (MP). The MP diet consisted of 80% frozen horse mackerel and 20% commercial binder meal. Fish weighing $30.1{\pm}0.1 g$ ($mean{\pm}SD$) were distributed randomly to each aquarium as a group of 2,600 fish. Weight gain (WG) and feed efficiency ratio (FER) of fish fed EP2 and MP were higher (P<0.05) than those of fish fed CEP, while those of fish fed EP1 did not differ (P>0.05) from those fed EP2 and MP. However, fish fed the MP diet had a higher survival rate than fish fed the other diets. Fish fed EP2 had higher serum, phospholipids and total protein levels, and lower levels of serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT), and total cholesterol than fish fed MP (P<0.05). Dorsal muscle and liver proteins and lipid of fish fed EP1 were higher (P<0.05) than those of fish fed CEP, while those of fish fed EP1 and MP did not differ from those of fish fed EP2 (P>0.05). These results strongly suggest that EP1 could be developed to replace MP for grow-out stage production of olive flounder without adverse effects on growth performance.

The influence of temperature and heating time on the stability of anthocyanin pigments in grape juice were investigated. There was no significant differences in soluble solids, acidity and pH of grape juice under various temperature and heating time. Residual total anthocyanin of grape juice was decreased by heating temperature over 100$^{\circ}C$ for 1 min. Delphinidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-glucoside were rapidly decreased by heating treatment, but petunidin-3-glucoside and malvidin-3-glucoside were more stable than others. These results suggests that the optimum quality of grape juice was heated at 90 $^{\circ}C$ for 1 min.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of plant oils or egg white powder and wheat fiber on the quality properties of hamburger patties. Beef patties were manufactured from the control oil (tallow, 10%), CP (canola oil, 10%), OP (olive oil, 10%), COP (corn oil, 10%), and SP (sunflower oil, 10%). The patties that contained plant oils had lower cooking loss than the control patties. The CIE $L^{\ast}$-values before cooking were highest for the SP treatments and lowest for the control patties. In terms of the fatty acid composition, the plant oil treatments, regardless of cooking, had higher monounsaturated/saturated fatty acid (M/S) ratios than the control patties, but had lower trans fatty acid contents than the control samples. In the sensory evaluations, the color and overall acceptability were more highly evaluated in the control patties than in the patties that contained plant oils.

These studies examined the production of oligosaccharides by ${\beta}-galactosidase$originated from Aspergillus oryzae and Kluyveromyces fragilis mixed. In addition, heat resistance and acid stability of transgalactosylated oligosaccharides were measured. When ${\beta}-galactosidase$ from A. oryzae, K. fragilis and mixed ${\beta}-galactosidase$ were added to 30%(w/v) lactose solution, maximum production of transgalactosylated oligosaccharides were 26.9%, 37.05 and 27.2%, respectively. The ratios of disacchride, trisacchride and tetrasaccharide in transgalactosylated oligosaccharides were 20.5 : 5.4 : 0.6, 20.4 : 10.5 : 4.2 and 21.0 : 4.1 : 1.9, respectively. Nine different oligosaccharides were recovered with 30% and 40% ethanol fractions. When the 30% ethanol fraction was treated at $150^{\circ}C$ for 10 min more than 90% of oligosaccharides remained stable. More than 90% of the oligosaccharides were stable at $130^{\circ}C$ for 3 min with pH 3.0, whereas there of Kluyveromyces was more than 90% with pH 3.5.

This study aims to develop and apply a standard management self-diagnostic table for forestry households to better manage their astringent persimmon production. The diagnostic table consisted of 3 categories (general status of a forestry household, management performance indicators, level of management) and 18 subcategories. The current management status across 241 households was surveyed among 10 chief astringent persimmon producing municipalities. Scores from the 18 subcategories were aggregated for a total score to evaluate and compare different levels of management. The respondents scored an overall average of 57.4, 62% of which were placed between 40 and 60. Upon close examination Chungcheongnam-do scored a very low score in the 'management system-tree height' subcategory with respect to the average score potentially because of the large population of aged trees in the region. The national average in the 'production skills-time of fruit load adjustment' subcategory was only 1.96 because unlike sweet persimmons astringent persimmons adjust their own load by inducing physiological fruit drop. The national average in the 'management/sales skills-material purchase' subcategory was 2.01; over 60% of the respondents indicated a preference for independent selection and purchase for most materials. The households preferring a group purchase tended to utilize the regional co-op.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of head position changes on vertical and horizontal magnification in dental panoramic radiographs. Materials and Methods: Five 4 mm metal balls were placed above alveolar crest of dry skull considering extraction socket and dental arch. Panoramic radiographs were taken by OP-100D (Instrumentarium Imaging Co., Tuusula, Finland) at proper and rotated head position along the sagittal and transverse axis at 3 - $20^{\circ}$ upwardly, downwardly, to the left and to the right rotation. Images were stored in DICOM files and were measured by ruler equipped within INFINITT PACS software. Results: The mean horizontal magnification was $1.22{\pm}0.01-1.44{\pm}0.01$ and mean vertical magnification was $1.29{\pm}0.00-1.35{\pm}0.02$ at standard head position. There was statistical significance of horizontal magnification between the anterior ($1.24{\pm}0.02-1.31{\pm}0.03$) and the posterior area ($1.40{\pm}0.03-1.33{\pm}0.02$) (P < 0.05). Vertical magnification resulted in less variation ($1.24{\pm}0.01-1.37{\pm}0.02$) than horizontal magnification ($0.88{\pm}0.03-3.73{\pm}0.16$) according to the rotation. There was statistical significant difference on horizontal magnification (P < 0.05). Conclusion: In rotated head position, the horizontal magnification should be considered because these can cause distortion on panoramic radiographs.

Current study was conducted to identify the effects of dietary supplementation of Aspergillus oryzae ferments (AOF) cultured under normal (NAOF) or nitrogen-deficient (NMAOF) environment on feed efficiency, nutrient digestibility for broiler chicks. Fecal microbes and ammonia gas production were also determined. A total of 168 male Avian chicks, 2-wk-old, were randomly assigned into 56 cages, three chicks per cage. There were seven treatments (Control, NAOF 0.05, 0.1, 0.5%, NMAOF 0.05, 0.1, 0.5%), with 8 replicates (cages) per treatment. There was no significant difference in nutrient digestibility between two AOF groups, but the digestibility was greatly(p<0.05) improved by AOF supplementation. Total microbial account significantly (p<0.05) differed between the treatment groups with the highest number for NNAOF, followed by NAOF and control. In the case of Escherichia coli and Salmonella, the AOF supplementation significantly (p<0.05) reduced their numbers in feces, with a particular reduction in NNAOF group. Levels of ammonia gas generation were in order of control>NAOP>NNAOP. The current data implied that AOF supplementation, particularly grown under nitrogen-deficient environment, would be a feasible way to improve feed efficiency for broiler production, as well as to reduce environmental cost. However, further studies remain for industrial application.
