최근 Skype의 인기와 더불어 P2P기반의 VoIP에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 표준 콜 셋업 프로토콜인 SIP와 동등 계층 간 통신망 구성의 P2P 기술을 결합하여 분산된 VoIP 서비스를 제공하려는 연구가 활발하게 진행 중에 있다. P2P에서는 중앙 엔티티가 존재하지 않으므로 사용자의 위치정보를 효율적으로 분산시키고 신속한 검색 방법을 제공하는 것을 중요한 문제로 다루고 있다. P2PSIP에서는 파일공유 목적의 P2P 서비스와는 다르게 특정 사용자의 각종정보(위치, 프로파일 등)를 빠르고 정확하게 찾아내야한다. 분산된 사용자의 위치정보를 검색하기 위하여 주로 DHT를 사용하고 있다. 하지만 매번 새로운 접속마다 사용자의 위치를 다시 찾아야 하기 때문에 오버레이 네트워크의 트래픽을 증가시킨다. 또한, 오버레이 네트워크에 참여하는 노드의 수가 증가함에 따라 사용자의 검색시간이 길어지는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 DHT로 찾아낸 사용자의 접속패턴 히스토리 정보를 캐쉬로 저장하여 호 설정 지연을 감소시키는 방안을 제안한다.

In this paper, we propose and evaluate OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)-SSB(Singe Side Band) for improving spectral efficiency. The proposed system is based on OFDM system using DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) and DHT(Discrete Hilbert Transform) for SSB modulation, this proposed system transmit a BPSK modulation signal through a single sideband and BPSK modulation signal through the other single sideband. In other words, we design and evaluate the proposed system which transmit two BPSK signal through each other single sideband. Also each BPSK BER performance is similar with theoretical BPSK BER performance. the proposed system transmits BPSK signal using half of spectrum of conventional OFDM system or transmit two BPSK signal in same time.

$5{\alpha}$-Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is the primary active metabolite of testosterone, catalyzed by $5{\alpha}$-reductase ($5{\alpha}R$) in the skin, prostate, and liver. In this study, the $5{\alpha}R$ activity in rat liver S9 fraction in the presence of a NADPH-generating system was evaluated and compared by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)-based in vitro assays. Testosterone and a $5{\alpha}R$ inhibitor, finasteride, were added to the S9 fractions and incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. Both testosterone and DHT were quantitatively measured and compared with two different GC-MS-based steroid profiling techniques. DHT was not detected by conventional GC-MS analysis in the absence of finasteride when the concentration of testosterone in the S9 fraction was less than $0.2{\mu}M$, whereas the isotope-dilution GC-MS (GC-IDMS) system was able to evaluate the $5{\alpha}R$ activity. Because the S9 fraction contains more reactive enzymes and is easier to collect from tissues compared with a microsomal solution, the combination of the S9 fraction and GC-IDMS technique may be a promising assay for evaluating the $5{\alpha}R$ activity in large-scale clinical studies.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common diseases among elderly men. As the old-age population is increasing recently, it is to our interest to observe the growing BPH within them. In BPH, the dihydrotestosterone (DHT) acts as promotes prostate growth. It inhibits enzyme $5{\alpha}$-reductase that is involved in the conversion of testosterone to the DHT activity which reduces the excessive prostate growth. Through experiments, the effects of Phellius linteus water extract performed on the BPH rats were induced by testosterone treatments. For 12 weeks, Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with testosterone for the induction of BPH. Rats were divided into four experimental groups: the not treated group (N), the testosterone injection and D.W treatment group (TN), the testosterone injection and Phellinus linteus treatment group (TP) and testosterone injection and finasteride treatment group (TF). Prostate weight, volume and weight ratio in the TP group and the TF group were significantly lower than the TN group. Testosterone and DHT levels in the TN group were significantly higher than that of the N group. And the TP group was significantly decreased than that of the TN group. While prostates of control rats revealed severe acinar gland atrophy and stromal proliferation; the TP and TF groups showed trophic symptoms and were lined by flattened epithelial cells, thus, the stromal proliferation is relatively low as compared to the TN group. These suggest that Phellinus linteus water extracts may be an useful remedy for treating the benign prostatic hyperplasia.

MANET and P2P applications have a common nature that they don't have any fixed infrastructures that might maintain network topologies. With such common characteristics, a P2P application can be a killer application over MANET. Due to absence of reliable node which serves indexing services in MANET, fully distributed P2P applications are more suitable for MANET. By using DHT like Chord, we can save network bandwidth and avoid a point of failure of a directory server. However, since MANET allows nodes to depart from network freely, P2P file sharing applications using Chord lookup protocol should address how to recover the keys stored at the departed node. In this paper, we propose BU-Chord in order to detect and recover the departure of nodes by creating and storing backup file information in distributed manner. Our BU-Chord shows off better performance than existing Chord especially in case of high departure rate of nodes.

The present study examines an interaction between the eddy and mean meridional circulation (MMC) comparing the results in three reanalysis data sets including ERA-Interim, NCEP2, and JRA-55 during the boreal winter in the Northern Hemisphere. It is noteworthy that the JRA-55 tends to produce stronger MMC compared to those of others, which is mainly due to the weak eddy flux. ERA-Interim represents the ensemble averages of MMC. The MMC-eddy interaction equation was adopted to investigate the scale interaction of the eddy momentum flux (EMF), eddy heat flux (EHF), and diabatic heating (DHT) with MMC. The EMF (EHF) shows a significant correlation coefficient with streamfunction under (above) 200 hPa-level. The perturbation (time mean) part of each eddy is dominant compared to another part in the EMF (EHF). The DHT is strongly interacted with streamfunction in the region between the equator and extra-tropical latitude over whole vertical column. Thus, the dominant term in each significant region modulates interannual variability of MMC. The inverse (proportional) relationship between MMC and pressure (meridional) derivative of the momentum (heat) divergence contributions is well represented in the three reanalysis data sets. The region modulated interannual variability of MMC by both EMF and DHT (EHF) is similar in ERA-Interim and JRA-55 (ERA-Interim and NCEP2). JRA-55 shows a lack of significant region of EHF due to the high resolution, compared to other data sets.

Searching distributed resource efficiently is very important in distributed computing, cloud computing environment. Distributed resource searching may have system overheads and take much time in proportion to the searching number, because distributed resource searching has to circuit many peers for searching information. The open-source community project JXTA defines an open set of standard protocols for ad hoc, pervasive, peer-to-peer computing as a common platform for developing a wide variety of decentralized network applications. In this paper, we proposed peer search algorithm based on JXTA-Sim. original JXTA peer searching algorithm selected a loosely-consistent DHT. Our Lookup algorithm decreases message number of WALK_LOOKUP and reduce the network system overload, and we make a result of same performance both original algorithm and our proposed algorithm.

Many peer-to-peer (p2p) systems have been studied in distributed, ubiquitous computing environments. Distributed hash table (DHT)-based p2p systems can improve load-balancing even though locality utilization and user mobility are not guaranteed. We propose a mobile locality-based hierarchical p2p overlay network (MLH-Net) to address locality problems without any other services. MLH-Net utilizes mobility features in a mobile environment. MLH-Net is constructed as two layers, an upper layer formed with super-nodes and a lower layer formed with normal-nodes. The simulation results demonstrate that MLH-Net can decrease discovery routing hops by 13% compared with JXTA and 69% compared with Chord. It can decrease the discovery routing distance by 17% compared with JXTA and 83% compared with Chord depending on the environment.

We reported previously that the extracts of Yacon tuber and leaf have spermatogenic activity and testosterone level increasing effect in men. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of testosterone level increasing effect of Yacon tuber and leaf extracts. In this study, we found that Yacon leaf extracts and chlorogenic acid, a constituent of Yacon extracts showed significantly inhibition effect of testosterone degradation in rat liver homogenate. We suggest that this could be a part of direct mechanism about increasing effect of testosterone level. Futhermore, we evaluated the inhibition effect of testosterone metabolism of Torilis japonica and Coix lacryma-jobi have been reported as $5{\alpha}$-reductase inhibitor. The inhibition ratio of testosterone metabolism of these were Torilis japonica>Coix lacryma-jobi>Yacon. We also evaluated the benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) score with the preparation composed of these natural product, Yacon pill. It showed the decreased the BPH score in men. Rats with BPH showed significantly increased dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels in the serum; however, Yacon pill extracts treated rats showed significant reduction of DHT levels compared with the BPH group. Conclusively, Yacon pill showed the possibility as ameliorable agents of BPH symptoms.

As the P2P System is a distributed system that shares resources of nodes that participate in the system, all the nodes serve as a role of server and client. Currently, although systematic, structured P2P systems such as Chord, Pastry, and Tapestry were suggested based on the distributed hash table, these systems are limited to $log_2N$ for performance efficiency. For this enhanced performance efficiency limited, the article herein suggests group routing algorithm. The suggested algorithm is a node-to-group routing algorithm which divides circular address space into groups and uses a concept of pointer representing each group, which is an algorithm where routing is performed based on pointer. To evaluate algorithm performance, a comparative analysis was conducted on average hops, routing table size, and delayed transmission for chord and routing, a signature algorithm in P2P systems. Therefore, enhanced performance is verified for comparative items from the simulation results.
