This invention is purposed to provide an innovative solution for the inside of roof structures, which is cultural assets. The Asian old houses generally have several layered roofs on top of the structures. If a fire has started inside of the roof, it is hard to be extinguished before eliminating all the upper layers of the roof. This invention provides pre constructed embedded pipes, which is flammable and easy to be dissolved by the fire. The material of pipe is composed of rubbers, of which the combustion point is so low that the extinguishing of initial fire is possible without additional fire service. The inside of pipe is filled with halon gas. If the filled gas is consumed after ignited by fire, additional fire extinguishing water is supplied. If the flexible pipes are totally combusted by a big fire, the sprinkler at the end of inflexible pipe will work continuously, which is located between flexible and inflexible pipes. The extinguishing pipe network is suggested as dividing whole roof as multiple sections for a swift fire extinguishing in case of intentional or natural fire attack to our invaluable cultural assets.

1970년대에 개발된 마이크로 프로세서는 제어기기 분야 및 소형 컴퓨터에서 주로 사용되어 오다가 1980년대에 이르러 RISC(Reduced Instruction Set Computer) 구조의 도입으로 중대형 컴퓨터에 이르기까지 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 또한 반도체 기술의 급격한 발전으로 슈퍼스칼라 구조가 마이크로 프로세서에서도 적용되고 있으며 동작 속도도 수백 MHz에 이르고 있다. 마이크로 프로세서는 프로그램을 수행하기 위해서 프로그램과 데이터를 메모리로부터 읽어 와야 한다. 그런데 메모리 용량은 빠른 속도로 증가하고 있지만 동작 속도는 마이크로 프로세서의 동작 속도에 크게 미치지 못하고 있다. 1980년에 DRAM의 접근 속도는 250nsec이었으나 1998년에 RDRAM의 동작속도는 300MHz로 70여배 빨라졌다. 그러나 마이크로프로세서는 1980년에 8086의 동작 속도가 8MHz이던 것이 1998년에는 팬티엄-2가 500MHz에 이르고 있다. 더욱이 팬티엄-2는 슈퍼스칼라 구조이므로 이를 감안하면 1GHz 이상에 이르러 120여 배 빨라진 것을 알 수 있다. 이와 같은 메모리 속도와 마이크로 프로세서 속도 차이에 더하여, 메모리와 마이크로 프로세서를 인쇄 회로 기판에서 연결하는데 따른 물리적 특성은 변화하지 않으므로 데이터 전송 폭을 넓히는 것에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 향후 컴퓨터 성능 발달을 제한하는 주요 요소 중 하나는 마이크로 프로세서와 메모리 사이의 데이터 전송 폭이다. 프로그램과 데이터가 메모리에 저장되는 본 뉴먼 방식의 컴퓨터에서 데이터 전송 폭을 줄이기 위해서는 코드 밀도(Code Density)가 높은 컴퓨터 구조를 연구하는 것이 필요하다. 한편 마이크로 프로세서는 실장 제어용으로 거의 모든 전자 제품 및 자동화 기기에서 채용하고 있다. 특히 냉장고, 에어콘, 전축, TV, 세탁기 등 가전기기와 Fax, 복사기, 프린터 등 사무용기기와 자동차, 선박, 자동화기계 등 사무 및 산업용 기기와 PDA(휴대용 정보 기기), NC(Network Computer) 등 정보 기기 그리고 각종 오락기, 노래 반주지 등 정보 기기 등에서 사용하는 실장 제어용 마이크로 프로세서 시장은 매년 10% 이상씩 성장하고 있으며, 21세기 산업을 주도하는 핵심 기술로 자리 매김하고 있다. 이러한 실장 제어용 기기는 마이크로 프로세서와 메모리 및 입출력 자이가 하나의 반도체에 집적되는 경우가 많다. 그런데 반도체 가격은 반도체 크기에 따라 결정되며, 가장 넓은 면적을 차지하는 것은 메모리이다. 따라서 반도체 가격을 낮추기 위해서는 메모리 크기를 줄여야 하며, 이를 위해서 또한 코드 밀도가 높은 컴퓨터 구조에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 최근에는 322비트 RISC 명령어를 16비트 명령어로 축약한 구조가 연구되었다. ARM-7TDMI는 ARM-7의 16비트 축약 명령어 구조이며, TR4101은 MIPS-R3000의 16비트 축약 명령어 구조이다. 이들 16비트 축약 명령어 RISC는 종래 RISC와의 호환성을 위하여 2가지 모드로 동작하므로 구조가 복잡하고, 16비트 명령어에서는 8개의 레지스타만을 접근할 수 있으므로 성능이 크게 떨어지는 단점을 가진다.

The most commonly adopted approach to find valuable information from tree data is to extract frequently occurring subtree patterns from them. Because mining frequent tree patterns has a wide range of applications such as xml mining, web usage mining, bioinformatics, and network multicast routing, many algorithms have been recently proposed to find the patterns. However, existing tree mining algorithms suffer from several serious pitfalls in finding frequent tree patterns from massive tree datasets. Some of the major problems are due to (1) modeling data as hierarchical tree structure, (2) the computationally high cost of the candidate maintenance, (3) the repetitious input dataset scans, and (4) the high memory dependency. These problems stem from that most of these algorithms are based on the well-known apriori algorithm and have used anti-monotone property for candidate generation and frequency counting in their algorithms. To solve the problems, we base a pattern-growth approach rather than the apriori approach, and choose to extract maximal frequent subtree patterns instead of frequent subtree patterns. The proposed method not only gets rid of the process for infrequent subtrees pruning, but also totally eliminates the problem of generating candidate subtrees. Hence, it significantly improves the whole mining process.

One-dimensional metal oxide nanostructures have attracted considerable research activities owing to their strong application potential as components for nanosize electronic or optoelectronic devices utilizing superior optical and electrical properties. In which, semiconducting $SnO_2$ material with wide-bandgap Eg = 3.6 eV at room temperature, is one of the attractive candidates for optoelectronic devices operating at room temperature [1, 2], gas sensor [3, 4], and transparent conducting electrodes [5]. The synthesis and gas sensing properties of semiconducting $SnO_2$ nanomaterials have become one of important research issues since the first synthesis of SnO2 nanowires. In this study, $SnO_2$ nanowire networks were synthesized on a basis of a two-step process. In step 1, Sn spheres (30-800 nm in diameter) embedded in $SiO_2$ on a Si substrate was synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method at $700^{\circ}C$. In step 2, using the source of these Sn spheres, $SnO_2$ nanowire (20-40 nm in diameter; $1-10{\mu}m$ in length) networks on a spherical Sn surface were synthesized by a thermal oxidation method at $800^{\circ}C$. The Au layers were pre-deposited on the surface of Sn spherical and subsequently oxidized Sn surface of Sn spherical formed SnO2 nanowires networks. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images indicated that $SnO_2$ nanowires are single crystalline. In addition, the $SnO_2$ nanowire is also a tetragonal rutile, with the preferred growth directions along [100] and a lattice spacing of 0.237 nm. Subsequently, the $NO_2$ sensing properties of the $SnO_2$ network nanowires sensor at an operating temperature of $50-250^{\circ}C$ were examined, and showed a reversible response to $NO_2$ at various $NO_2$ concentrations. Finally, details of the growth mechanism and formation of Sn spheres and $SnO_2$ nanowire networks are also discussed.

The role of radiology department has been greatly increased in the past few years as the technology in the medical imaging devices improved and the introduction of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System) to the conventional film-based diagnostic structure is a truly remarkable factor to the medical history. In addition, the value of using digital information in medical imaging is highly expected to grow as the technology over the computer and the network improves. However, the current medical practice, using PACS is somewhat limited compared to the film-based conventional one due to a poor image quality. The image quality is the most important and inevitable factor in the PACS environment and it is one of the most necessary steps to more wide practice of digital imaging. The existing image quality control tools are limited in controlling images produced from the medical modalities, because they cannot display the real image changing status. Thus, the image quality is distorted and the ability to diagnosis becomes hindered compared to the one of the film-based practice. In addition, the workflow of the radiologist greatly increases; as every doctor has to perform his or her own image quality control every time they view images produced from the medical modalities. To resolve these kinds of problems and enhance current medical practice under the PACS environment, we have developed a program to display a better image quality by using the ROI optical density of the existing gray level values. When the LUT is used properly, small detailed regions, which cannot be seen by using the existing image quality controls are easily displayed and thus, greatly improves digital medical practice. The purpose of this study is to provide an easier medical practice to physicians, by applying the technology of converting the H-D curves of the analog film screen to the digital imaging technology and to preset image quality control values to each exposed body part, modality and group of physicians for a better and easier medical practice. We have asked to 5 well known professional physicians to compare image quality of the same set of exam by using the two different methods: existing image quality control and the LUT technology. As the result, the LUT technology was enormously favored over the existing image quality control method. All the physicians have pointed out the far more superiority of the LUT over the existing image quality control method and highly praised its ability to display small detailed regions, which cannot be displayed by existing image quality control tools. Two physicians expressed the necessity of presetting the LUT values for each exposed body part. Overall, the LUT technology yielded a great interest among the physicians and highly praised for its ability to overcome currently embedded problems of PACS. We strongly believe that the LUT technology can enhance the current medical practice and open a new beginning in the future medical imaging.

Background: The leukocyte common antigen (CD45) is a transmembrane-type protein tyrosine phosphatase that has five isoforms. Methods: We generated seven murine mAbs against human CD45 by injecting cells from different origins, such as human thymocytes, PBMCs, and leukemic cell lines. By using various immunological methods including flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and immunoprecipitation, we evaluated the reactivity of those mAbs to CD45 of thymus as well as tonsil lysates. Furthermore, we transiently transfected COS-7 cells with each of gene constructs that express five human CD45 isoforms respectively, and examined the specificities of the mAbs against the transfected isoforms. Results: In case of thymocytes, lymphocytes, and monocytes, all the seven mAbs demonstrated positive reactivities whereas none was reactive to erythrocytes and platelets. The majority of immune cells in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded thymus and tonsil tissues displayed strong membranous immunoreactivity, and the main antigen was detected near 220 kDa in all cases. Among the mAbs, four mAbs (AP4, DN11, SHL-1, and P6) recognized a region commonly present in all the five isoforms. One mAb, YG27, recognized four isoforms (ABC, AB, BC, and O). Two mAbs, P1 and P14, recognized the isoforms that contain exon A encoded regions (ABC and AB). Conclusion: In this study, we confirmed that AP4, DN11, SHL-1, YG27 and P6, are mAbs reactive with the CD45 antigen whereas P1 and P14 are reactive with the CD45RA antigen.

JL1, a specific epitope on CD43, is a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of acute leukemia. Although qualitative assays for detecting leukemia-specific CD43 exist, there is a need to develop quantitative assays for the same. Here, we developed two novel monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), 2C8 and 8E10, recognizing different epitopes on CD43. These clones are capable of pairing with YG5, another mAb against JL1 epitope, because they were selectively obtained using sandwich ELISA. Antigens recognized by 2C8 and 8E10 were confirmed as CD43 by western blotting using the CD43-hFC recombinant protein. When expression on various leukemic cell lines was investigated, 2C8 and 8E10 displayed a disparity in the distribution of the epitope. Enzyme assays revealed that these mAbs recognized a sialic acid-dependent epitope on CD43. Using normal thymus and lymph node paraffin-embedded tissues, we confirmed a difference in the epitopes recognized by the two mAbs that was predicted based on the maturity of the cells in the tissue. In summary, we developed and characterized two mAbs, 2C8 and 8E10, which can be used with YG5 in a sandwich ELISA for detecting leukemia-specific CD43.
