Jet Bubbling Reactors(JBRs) were operated for the removal of SO$_{x}$ in flue gases produced from many electric power plants. However, many JBR flue gas desulfurization (FGD) facility faced a decrease of SO$_{x}$ removal efficiency and an increase of scale problems with continuous operations. We increased alkalinity of the SO$_{2}$ absorbing medium by adding the dibasic acids (DBAs) to solve these problems more effectively. The SO$_{2}$ removal efficiency, the purity of CaCO$_{3}$ and COD of the wastewater was measured to identify the addition effects of DBAs (150, 200, 250, and 400 ppm) for 2hr in a day into the JBR attached to the large-scale power plants (400 MW$\times$3). Addition of the DBAs resulted in the improvement of the SO$_{2}$ removal efficiency from 2 to 5% and the purity of the gypsum from 1 to 2%; these improvement were due to the alkalinity increase of the absorbing medium and the reduction of a proportion of un-reacted CaCO$_{3}$, respectively. Also, the scale problems formed by un-reacted CaCO$_{3}$ inside the reaction zone of the JBR were substantially reduced. Even though the effluent COD of the wastewater slightly increased from 10~15 to 18~36 mg/l and the erosion problems in the injection pump and duct occurred, this method of increasing SO$_{2}$ removal efficiency by adding the DBAs could be considered as a profitable approach.ach.

목 적: 본 연구는 일차성 및 이차성 불면증 환자에서 인지행동치료(Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, 이하 CBT)의 임상적 효능을 평가하고자 하였다. 방 법: 2008년 1월부터 2009년 6월까지 일차의료기관 수면클리닉에 방문한 환자들을 대상으로 하였다. 전체 64명의 외래 환자가 모집되었으며, DSM-IV에 의거하여 진단 된 일차성 불면증 환자는 30명, 이차성 불면증 환자는 34명이었다. 환자들은 CBT 전후로 수면 일지, 수면에 대한 역기능적 신념 및 태도 척도(Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep Scale-16, 이하 DBAS) 및 상태-특성 불안척도(State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, 이하 STAI)를 각각 시행하였다. CBT는 1주 간격으로 7회, 1회당 40~50분 동안 개별적으로 진행하였다. 결 과: 일차성, 이차성 불면증 환자군 모두 입면 잠복기, 총 수면 시간, 수면 효율과 같은 수면 지표와 DBAS 점수의 유의한 호전을 보였다. 반복측정 분산분석에서는 두 군간에 시간에 따른 DBAS와 수면 지표의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 이차성 불면증에서의 CBT의 효과는 일차성 불면증에서의 효과와 동등하였다. 결 론: 이번 연구는 CBT가 일차의료 환경에서 일차성 및 이차성 불면증의 치료에 있어 효과적이라는 것을 시사한다.

The physical properties of polymer are greatly influenced by the extent to which a resin cures. The presence of un reacted monomer can, have a plasticizing effect on the polymer, thereby altering the physical and mechanical properties of dentin bonding agent (DBA). If the DBA does not polymerize sufficiently, it will leave a weak bonding layer and lead to lower bond strength. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strengths(SBS) and the degree of conversion (DC) of 4 commercialy avilable dentin bonding systems which are composed of 2 multi-bottle systems [Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SMP), AeliteBond(AB)] and 2 onebottle systems [SingleBond(SB), One-Step(OS)]. For shear bond strength measurement, labial surfaces of freshly extracted bovine incisors were ground with # 600 grit SiC paper to expose dentin. Four different groups of samples were formed, with 10 samples. being made for each of the 4 commercial DBA in each group according to the curing sequences of DBA and overlayer thickness of composites: Group I (standard cure and 1mm thick composites) : The DBA was light cured and the composites of 1mm thickness was applied ; Group II (standard cure and 2mm thick composites) : The DBA was light cured and the composites of 2mm thickness was applied; Group III (simultaneous cure and 1mm thick composites) : The DBA was not light-cured and simultaneously cured with composites of 1mm thickness; Group N (simultaneous cure and 2mm thick composites) : The DBA was. not light-cured and simultaneously cured with composites of 2mm thickness. The SBS was measured immediately after the composites was bonded to the bovine dentin using an Instron machine. The DC of the DBA was examined in a thin film under simulated conditions of the experimental groups according to the curing sequences and overlayer thickness of composites in the SBS test. using a Fourier transform Infrared(FTIR) spectrometer. The following results were obtained from SBS tests and DC measurements 1. In SBS tests, the multi-bottle DBA(SMP, AB) had a generally higher bond strength values than the one bottle DBA(SB, OS). In DC measurements, the one bottle DBA(SB, OS) had a significantly higher DC than the multi-bottle DBA(SMP, AB). 2. In all DBAs except OS, there was no significant difference between the bond strength of group I (standard cure and 1mm thick composites) and that of group III (simultaneous cure and 1mm thick composites). SMP, SB in Group I had a significantly higher DC than those in group III, but AB, OS in group I had a significantly lower DC than those in group III 3. All DBAs in Goup II (standard cure and 2mm thick composites) had significantly higher bond strength and DC than those in Group N (simultaneous cure and 2mm thick composites). 4. In all DBAs, there was no significantly different SBS and DC between Group I and Group II, but all DBAs in Group III had significantly higher SBS and DC than those in Group IV.

Erythropoietin (EPO), a glycoprotein hormone, regulates the proliferation and differentiation of ereythroid progenitor cells. Many attempts have been made to identify the functionally important amino acids of the hormone. One of those early studies has found that heavy redioiodination of EPO caused the loss of its biological activity, suggesting some important role of one of the four tyrosine residues (Goldwasser, 1981). Thus, in this study, we have generated and tested four $Tyr{\dashrightarrow}Phe$ substitution mutants to clarify the possible role of the tyrosine residue(s) in the hormone's Tyrosine residue(s) in the hormone's biological activity. When the mutant and wild type EPO cDBAs were transfected into COS-7 cells and the biological activities of the muteins were assayed using the primary murine erythroid spleen cells, no mutation tested was found to affect the biological activity of the hormone. Thus we conclude that, contrary to the previous observation, none of the four tyrosine in eryghropoietin is critically involved in the binding of the hormone to its receptor.

In this paper, we propose an ATM-LAN IWU(interworking unit) with threshold based dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme. We analyze a discrete-time based finite queueing model with deterministic service times in order to investigate the performance of the proposed scheme. It is known that the arrival process of IP packets is bursty. So we use an MMPP(Markov Modulated Poisson Process) to model the bursty input traffic. As performance measures, we obtain the packet loss probability and the mean packet delay. We present some numerical results to show the effects of the thresholds on the performance of the DBAS(dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme).

An important technique used by database administrators (DBAs) is to improve performance in decision-support workloads associated with a Star schema is multi-level partitioning. Queries will then benefit from performance improvements via partition elimination, due to constraints on queries expressed on the dimension tables. As the task of multi-level partitioning can be overwhelming for a DBA we are proposing a wizard that facilitates the task by calculating a partitioning scheme for a particular workload. The system resides completely on a client and interacts with the costing estimation subsystem of the query optimizer via an API over the network, thereby eliminating any need to make changes to the optimizer. In addition, since only cost estimates are needed the wizard overhead is very low. By using a greedy algorithm for search space enumeration over the query predicates in the workload the wizard is efficient with worst-case polynomial complexity. The technology proposed can be applied to any clustering or partitioning scheme in any database management system that provides an interface to the query optimizer. Applied to the Teradata database the technology provides recommendations that outperform a human expert's solution as measured by the total execution time of the workload. We also demonstrate the scalability of our approach when the fact table (and workload) size increases.
