In a video-on-Demand(VOD) service, a server has to return to he normal playback quickly at a certain new frame position after interactive operations such as jump or last playback. In this paper, we propose an efficient scheme to write a transmission schedule for a playback restart of a video stream at a new frame position after interactive operations. The proposed scheme is based on convergence characteristics, that is transmission schedules with different playback startup frame position in a video stream meet each other at some frame position. The scheme applies a bandwidth smoothing from a new frame position to a convergence position without considering all remaining frames of a video stream. And then the scheme transmits video dta according to the new schedule from the new frame position to the convergence position, and then transmits the remaining video data according to the reference schedule from the convergence position, and then transmits the remaining video data according to the reference schedule from the convergence position to the last frame position. In this paper, we showed that there existed the convergence position corresponding to nay frame position in a video stream through many experiments based on MPEG-1 bit trace data. With the convergence we reduced the computational overhead of a bandwidth smoothing, which was applied to find a new transmission schedule after interactive operations. Also, storage overhead is greatly reduced by storing pre-calculated schedule information up to the convergence position for each I frame position of a video stream with video data off-line. By saving information on a transmission schedule off-line along with the video data and searching the schedule corresponding to the specified restarting frame position, we expect the possibility of normal playback of a video stream with small tolerable playback startup delay.

We investigate the effects of interfacial dielectric layers (IDLs) on the electrical properties of top-gate In-Ga-Zn-oxide (IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) fabricated at low temperatures below $200^{\circ}C$, using a target composition of In:Ga:Zn = 2:1:2 (atomic ratio). Using four types of TFT structures combined with such dielectric materials as $Si_3N_4$ and $Al_2O_3$, the electrical properties are analyzed. After post-annealing at $200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour in an $O_2$ ambient, the sub-threshold swing is improved in all TFT types, which indicates a reduction of the interfacial trap sites. During negative-bias stress tests on TFTs with a $Si_3N_4$ IDL, the degradation sources are closely related to unstable bond states, such as Si-based broken bonds and hydrogen-based bonds. From constant-current stress tests of $I_d$ = 3 ${\mu}A$, an IGZO-TFT with heat-treated $Si_3N_4$ IDL shows a good stability performance, which is attributed to the compensation effect of the original charge-injection and electron-trapping behavior.

Environmental monitoring sub-system has been developed using gas sensor module, Bluetooth module and PDA phone. The gas sensor module consists of $NO_2or$ CO gas sensor and signal processing chips. Gas sensor is composed of the micro-heater, sensing electrode and sensing material. Metal oxide nano-material was selectively deposited on a substrate with micro-heater and was integrated to the gas sensor module. The change in resistance of the metal oxide nano-material due to exposure of oxidizing or deoxidizing gases is utilized as the principle of this gas sensor operation mechanism. This variation detected in the gas sensor module was transferred to the PDA phone by way of Bluetooth module.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted substantial interest as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries because of the low cost. There have been many studies on the development of new anode materials that could react with sodium by conversion mechanism. SnO₂ is a promising candidate due to its low cost and high theoretical capacity. However, SnO₂ has the same problem as other anodes during the conversion reaction, i.e., the volume of the anode repeatedly expands and contracts by cycling. Herein, anode is composed of carbon nanofiber embedded with SnO₂ nanopowder. The resultant electrode showed improvement of cyclability. The optimized SnO₂ electrode showed high capacity of 1275 mAh g^-1 at a current density of 50 mA g^-1. The high conductivity of the optimized electrode resulted in superior electrochemical performance.

Saussurea lappa is known for a variety of physiological activities as a component but has not known to show the effect of the cellular signaling pathway. We investigated the anti-inflammatory effects by Saussurea lappa ethanol extract on the LPS(lipopolysaccharide) induced nitric oxide (NO) production by RAW 264.7 cell line. It shows the expressions of iNOS and COX-2 at the transcriptional level (RT-PCR). The Saussurea lappa ethanol extract showed transcriptional expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF- and IL-$1{\beta}$ induced by LPS(lipolysaccharide) in RAW264.7 cell line. Saussurea lappa ethanol extract reduced the LPS-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) at the RNA levels in a concentration-dependent manner. The finding that ethanol extract of Saussurea lappa has an influence on NO (nitric oxide) homeostasis in the study of the action mechanism on the macrophage-mediated inflammatory reaction was considered in terms of convergence. And it is to provide an important basis for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory diseases in the future.

The citizen is going to live on security for better life stably in all times, and, as for such human basic desire, it is to the base which is important about the durability and the development of the smart city. I defined needs and the priority about the disaster recovery of the community as a citizen through date analysis until I came back to the normal environment again after a smart city suffered the damage by the misfortune in the study. I was going to suggest a method to support inhabitants of the damage area that was the immediate, and was necessary for a base in such date analysis and recovery of the community. I considered the Great East Japan Earthquake in an example in 2011. I studied the smart city plan which could improve the resilience of the local citizen and community through data utilization.

We fabricated 1-D and 2-D diffraction gratings of SiOx anti-reflection (AR) film grown on a quartz substrate and integrated them into a c-Si photovoltaic (PV) submodule. The light-trapping effect of the resulting submodules was studied in terms of the oblique optical incident angle, ${\theta}_i$. As the ${\theta}_i$ increased, solar conversion efficiency, ${\eta}$, was improved as expected by the increased optical transmission caused by the grating. For ${\theta}_i{\leq}30^{\circ}$, the relative solar conversion efficiency, ${\Delta}{\eta}$, of a 1-D SiOx (t=300 nm) grating, compared to that of a flat SiOx AR-coated integrated PV submodule, was improved very little, with a small variation of within 2%, but increased markedly for ${\theta}_i{\geq}40^{\circ}$. We observed a change of ${\Delta}{\eta}$ as large as 10.7% and 9.5% for the SiOx grating of period t=800 nm and 1200 nm, respectively. For a 2-D SiOx (t=300 nm) grating integrated PV submodule, however, the optical trapping behavior was similar in terms of ${\theta}_i$ but its variation was small, within ${\pm}1.0%$.

Glass-to-metal contact should be prevented in the design of any structural glass component. Because glass is extremely brittle and will fracture readily if even a small point load is applied. If the assembly includes a glass component supported by metallic structure, designers should provide a pliable interface of some kind between the two parts. But there happens high demand of glass-to metal contact in semiconductor industries due to adoption of dry cleaning process as one of the good solution to reduce running cost - carry out equipments cleaning with high corrosive and etching gas such as CF4 with keeping process temperature as the same as high service temperature. Therefore the quartz glass have to be received compression by direct contact with metal as the form of weight itself and vacuum pressure and fatigue by vibrations caused by process during the process. In this paper investigation will be carried out on fracture behavior of quartz glass contacted with metal directly under local load and fatigue given by process vibration with apparatus which can give $lox{\backslash}cal$ load and vibration through PZT ceramics to give guideline to prevent unintended fracture of quartz glass.

The Female workforces opened the combatants which was not allowed so far including the artillery in the army, air defense, and etc. to the woman soldier in 2014. I exceeded 10,000 people in 2015 and it is in the plan to be expanded to 4,450 officers, 6,374 noncommissioned officers in 2017. A navy is the plan which selects the woman officer to board a submarine since 2017 and which I board over 3,000 t level in a submarine. But the institutional supplementation about this is insufficient although the woman soldier increased depending on the policy's decision. The role of the woman soldier was expanded and it was the time when the system developmental about the woman soldier management which is consistent with the future war aspect will have to be guaranteed, and the clear standard including the post circulation to the starting in advance of the woman soldier and human resource expansion and treatment, and etc. is required. I supplement the current regulation which I am applying as man soldier Army and the same standard although the woman soldier and man soldier Army has a difference and I analyze the phenomenon and the developmental solution should be suggested about the woman soldier people management.
