In this paper, we propose a method for improving the lifetime of the sensor network SEP through the wireless sensor network divided into two spaces by reducing the transmission distance of the cluster head in the layer in the distance. With reference to the position information of the node, the base station divides the layer based on the midpoint of the nearest node and the furthest distance away from the base station node. And the cluster head in the outer layer far from the base station is transmitted the data to the base station via the cluster head in the inner layer base station to transmit data. That is, we are proposed the layered SEP by reducing the transmission distance of the cluster head in the outer layer for the energy consumption to a minimum. The proposed algorithm is verified by comparison with the existing SEP.

The indolent course of most thyroid papillary carcinomas, even the presence of regional lymph node metastasis, make them unique among human malignant head and neck cancers. Age, sex, extracapsular invasion and anaplastic change are known to be correlated with prognosis. The purpose of this study is to clarify the significance of DNA content analysis as a prognostic factor. Twenty five thyroid papillary carcinomas were possible to be examined by flow cytometric analysis using fresh surgical specimens and three nodular hyperplasias and seven follicular adenomas were included as control group. The results were as follows: l) All of twenty five thyroid papillary carcinomas showed diploidy. 2) S-phase fraction was $1.94{\pm}2.77%$ in normal control group and $2.60{\pm}2.66%$ in papillary carcinoma group. The proliferation index was $8.44{\pm}3.89%$ in normal control and $7.70{\pm}3.63%$ in papillary carcinoma group with even low value. 3) Age, sex, extracapsular spread and lymph node metastasis showed no significant difference. In conclusion, low proliferative activity of thyroid papillary carcinomas are thought to be related with good prognosis.

The malignant tumor of nasopharynx occurs in china and other oriental contries as high incidence and its prognosis is relatively poor because of frequent intracranial extension and early metastasis. Traditional therapeutic modality of nasopharyngeal cancer was definite radiotherapy, but recently some cancer institute had tried combined modality with induction chemotherapy and reported it may be valuable. We report the clinical evaluation and therapeutic result about 28 nasopharyngeal cancer patients which were treated with 2 courses of induction chemotherapy(Cisplatin+5-FU) and radiotherapy. The results were as follows: 1) The 3 years and 5 years survival rate were 76% and 47% in total patients. 2) The 3 years and 5 years survival rate were 92% and 63% in T1, T2, T3 group, and 25% and 0% in T4 group. 3) The 3 year and 5 year survival rate were 100% and 60% in neck node negative group, and 60% and 40% in neck node positive group. 4) The 3 year and 5 years survival rate were 100% and 50% in stage I II group, and 71% and 44% in stage III, IV group.

For the analysis of water supply network, demand-driven and pressure-driven analysis methods have been proposed. Of the two methods, demand-driven analysis (DDA) can only be used in a normal operation condition to evaluate hydraulic status of a pipe network. Under abnormal conditions, i.e., unexpected pipe destruction, or abnormal low pressure conditions, pressure-driven analysis (PDA) method should be used to estimate the suppliable flowrate at each node in a network. In order to carry out the pressure-driven analysis, head-outflow relationship (HOR), which estimates flowrate at a certain pressure at each node, should be first determined. Most previous studies empirically suggested that each node possesses its own characteristic head-outflow relationship, which, therefore, requires verification by using actual field data for proper application in PDA modeling. In this study, a model pipe network was constructed, and various operation scenarios of normal and abnormal conditions, which cannot be realized in real pipe networks, were established. Using the model network, data on pressure and flowrate at each node were obtained at each operation condition. Using the data obtained, previously proposed HOR equations were evaluated. In addition, head-outflow relationship at each node was analyzed especially under multiple pipe destruction events. By analyzing the experimental data obtained from the model network, it was found that flowrate reduction corresponding to a certain pressure drop (by pipe destruction at one or multiple points on the network) followed intrinsic head-outflow relationship of each node. By comparing the experimentally obtained head-outflow relationship with various HOR equations proposed by previous studies, the one proposed by Wagner et al. showed the best agreement with the exponential parameter, m of 3.0.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and predictive factors of contralateral occult lymph node metastasis in oral cavity squamous cell carcinomas to form a rational basis for elective contralateral neck management. Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 66 N0-2 oral cavity cancer patients undergoing elective neck dissection for contralateral clinically negative necks from 1991 to 2003. Results: Clinically negative but pathologically positive contralateral lymph nodes occurred in 11%(7 of 66) . Of the 11 cases with a clinically ipsilateral node positive neck, contralateral occult lymph node metastases developed in 36%(4 of 10, in contrast with 5%(3/55) in the cases with clinically ipsilateral node negative necks(p<0.05). Based on the clinical staging of the tumor, 8%(3 of 37) of the cases showed lymph node metastases in T2 tumors, 25%(2 of 8) in T3, and 18%(2 of 11) in T4. None of the T1 tumors(10 cases) had pathologically positive lymph nodes. The rate of contralateral occult neck metastasis was significantly higher in advanced stage cases and those crossing the midline, compared to early stage or unilateral lesions(p<0.05). Patients with no evidence of contralateral nodal cancer had significantly improved disease-specific survival over patients with any pathologically positive nodes(5-year disease-specific survival rate was 79% vs. 43%, p<0.05). Conclusion: The risk of contralateral occult neck involvement in the oral cavity squamous cell carcinomas above the T3 stage or those crossing the midline with unilateral metastases was high. Therefore, we advocate an elective contralateral neck treatment with surgery or radiotherapy in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma patients with ipsilateral node metastases or tumors that are greater than stage T3 or crossing the midline.

In wireless sensor networks, a clustering protocol is an efficient method to prolong network lifetime. In general, it results in more energy consumption at the cluster-head node. Hence, such a protocol must changes the cluster formation and cluster-head node in each round to prolong the network lifetime. But, this method also causes large amount of energy consumption during the set-up process of cluster formation. In order to improve energy efficiency, in this paper, we propose a new clustering algorithm. In this algorithm, we exclude duplicated data of adjacent nodes and transmits the threshold value. We define a group as the sensor nodes within close proximity of each other. In a group, a node senses and transmits data at a time on the round-robin basis. In a view of whole network, group is treated as one node. During the setup phase of a round, intra clusters are formed first and then they are re-clustered(network cluster) by choosing cluster-heads(group). In the group with a cluster-head, every member node plays the role of cluster-head on the round-robin basis. Hence, we can lengthen periodic round by a factor of group size. As a result of analysis and comparison, our scheme reduces energy consumption of nodes, and improve the efficiency of communications in sensor networks compared with current clustering methods.

Recently Wireless sensor networks have been used for many purposes and is active for this study. The various methods to reduce energy consumption, which are actively being studied Wireless sensor network to reduce energy consumption, leading to improve transport efficiency, Cluster can be viewed using the research methods. Cluster method researches consists of a sensor node to the cluster and in among those they take out the Cluster head node and Cluster head node is having collects sensing information of circumferential nodes sensing to sink node transmits. Selected as cluster head sensor nodes so a lot of the energy consumption is used as a cluster head sensor nodes is lose a shorter life span have to be replaced by another sensor node. In this paper, to complement the disadvantages of a cluster-mesh method, proposes to manage memory efficiently about filtering method for sensing data. Filtering method to store the same data sensing unlike traditional methods of data filtering system sensing first sent directly by the hashing algorithm to calculate the hash table to store addresses and Sensing to store data on the calculated address in a manner to avoid duplication occurred later, and sensing data is not duplicated by filtering data to be stored in the hash table is a way.
