Living cells are sustained not by individual activities but rather by coordinated summative efforts of different biological functional modules. While recent research works have focused largely on finding individual functional modules, this paper attempts to explore the connections or relationships between different cellular functions through cross-function domain interaction maps. Exploring such a domain interaction map can help understand the underlying inter-function communication mechanisms. To construct a cross-function domain interaction map from existing genome-wide protein-protein interaction datasets, we propose a two-step procedure. First, we infer conserved domain-domain interactions from genome-wide protein-protein interactions of yeast, worm and fly. We then build a cross-function domain interaction map that shows the connections of different functions through various conserved domain interactions. The domain interaction maps reveal that conserved domain-domain interactions can be found in most detected cross-functional relationships and a f9w domains play pivotal roles in these relationships. Another important discovery in the paper is that conserved domains correspond to highly connected protein hubs that connect different functional modules together.

Chinese cabbage is produced and consumed as a main material for kimchi and as a staple vegetable in Korea throughout the year. However, due to environmental changes unbalance between supply and demand is repeated annually, requiring development of long-term storage technologies. Chinese cabbages, were harvested, put in plastic boxes, and precooled at $2^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours using forced air precooler. After precooling, Chinese cabbages were MAP-treated with 0.02 mm HDPE film and functional film and stored at low temperature ($1{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$). The weight-loss rates after 9-weeks of storage were 8.47% in the control group, 4.07% in the HDPE film-treated group, and 3.07% in the functional film-treated group, respectively, suppressing weight loss. Trimming loss rate after 6-weeks of storage was 6.86% in the functional film MAP-treated group and lower than 7.50% in the control group. In the sensory test with 7 points as the limit of commodity, the control group lost it after 6-weeks of storage while the MAP-treated groups retained over 7 points. The functional film MAP-treated group showed over 6 points for processing as kimchi until 9-weeks of storage, proving that Pallet-type MAP storage is effective for extending storage life of spring Chinese cabbage.

The Functional Element SNPs Database (FESD) categorizes functional elements in human genic regions and provides a set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located within each area. Users may select a set of SNPs in specific functional elements with haplotype information and obtain flanking sequences for genotyping. Our previous version of FESD has been improved in several ways. We regenerated all the data in FESD II from recently updated source data such as HapMap, UCSC GoldenPath, dbSNP, OMIM, and $TRANSFAC^{(R)}$. Users can obtain information about tagSNPs and simulate LD blocks for each gene from four ethnicities in the HapMap project on the fly. FESD II employs a Java/JSP web interface for better platform portability and higher speed than PHP in the previous version. As a result, FESD II provides its users with more powerful information about functional element SNPs of human ethnicities.

By introducing the notion of a generalized normal state space, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for that there exists a unital normal completely map from a von Neumann algebra into another, in terms of their generalized normal state spaces.

Satellite ground track display computer program is designed and implemented for the KOMPSAT-2 mission operations. Digitized world map and detailed Korean map is realized with zoom and pan capability. The program supports real-time ground trace and off-line satellite image planning on the world map. Satellite mission timeline is also displayed with the satellite ground track for the visualized mission operations. In this paper, the satellite ground track display is described in the aspect of the functional requirements, design, and implementation.

In this paper, we present a fixed point theorem for a family of generalized condensing multimaps which have ranges of the Zima-Hadžić type in Hausdorff KKM uniform spaces. It extends Himmelberg et al. type fixed point theorem. As applications, we obtain some new collective fixed point theorems for various type generalized condensing multimaps in abstract convex uniform spaces.

Retinal prostheses are being developed to restore vision for the blind with retinal diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Among the many issues for prosthesis development, stimulation encoding strategy is one of the most essential electrophysiological issues. The more we understand the retinal circuitry how it encodes and processes visual information, the greater it could help decide stimulation encoding strategy for retinal prosthesis. Therefore, we examined how retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in in-vitro retinal preparation act together to encode a visual scene with multielectrode array (MEA). Simultaneous recording of many RGCs with MEA showed that nearby neurons often fired synchronously, with spike delays mostly within 1 ms range. This synchronized firing - narrow correlation - was blocked by gap junction blocker, heptanol, but not by glutamatergic synapse blocker, kynurenic acid. By tracking down all the RGC pairs which showed narrow correlation, we could harvest 40 functional connectivity maps of RGCs which showed the cell cluster firing together. We suggest that finding functional connectivity map would be useful in stimulation encoding strategy for the retinal prosthesis since stimulating the cluster of RGCs would be more efficient than separately stimulating each individual RGC.

While many surfaces such as automobile outer panels, ship hulls and airfoils are characterized by their smooth, free-form shapes, a far larger class of functional surfaces are characterized by highly irregular, multi-featured shapes consisting of pockets, channels, ribs, etc. In constaract to the design of aesthetic, free-form surfaces, functional surface design can perhaps best be viewed as a process of assembling a collection of known component surfaces to form a single compound surface. In this paper, we presents a feature-based functional surface modeling method. A single feature involves a secondary surface, which we must join to a primary surface with a smooth transition between two boundary courves. Through recursive blending of a secondary surface with the primary surface, the mullti-featured surface is represented. After constructing a compound surface, we generate the Z-map for NC machining of the surface. Offsetting the Z-map using the inverse offsetting technique, we get CL tool paths with out gouging.
