Mobile peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have recently got in the limelight of the research community that is striving to build efficient and effective mobile content addressable networks. Along this line of research, we propose a new peer-to-peer file sharing protocol suited to mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). The main ingredients of our protocol are network coding and mobility assisted data propagation, i.e., single-hop communication. We argue that network coding in combination with single-hop communication allows P2P file sharing systems in MANET to operate in a more efficient manner and helps the systems to deal with typical MANET issues such as dynamic topology and intermittent connectivity as well as various other issues that have been disregarded in previous MANET P2P researches such as addressing, node/user density, non-cooperativeness, and unreliable channel. Via simulation, we show that our P2P protocol based on network coding and single-hop communication allows shorter file downloading delays compared to an existing MANET P2P protocol.

In the pipeline for supplying purified water to each household, measurements such as flow meters and pressure meters are installed at important points to monitor in real time. The measured data acquired to the central control room through wireless or wired communication, but data may not be acquired due to intermittent communication failures. Since then, even if the communication network is restored, data during the failure period is not stored on the site, or even if it is stored, data cannot be automatically stored in the database. Low cost with universally installed in the field in order to address these data logging by developing a module is compatible with PLC, automatically would like to make sure that we can recover in the database.

By changing the bulky monolithic services architecture to a microservices-based architecture, industries are managing the rising complexity of Autonomous Vehicles. However, the underlying communication mechanisms for the utilization and distribution of these microservices are incapable of fulfilling the requirements of the futuristic AV, because of the stringent latency requirements along with intermittent and short-lived connectivity issues. This paper proposes to tackle these challenges by employing the revolutionary information-centric networking (ICN) paradigm as an underlying communication architecture. This paper argues that a microservice approach to building autonomous vehicle systems should utilize ICN to achieve effective service utilization, efficient distribution, and uniform service discovery. This research claims that the vision of an information-centric microservices will help to focus on research that can fill in current communication gaps preventing more effective, and lightweight autonomous vehicle services and communication protocols.

In order to investigate the effect of contact load, which is one of the fretting corrosion factors affecting the electric connector, a coupled fretting corrosion specimens were prepared using a tin-plated brass coupon with a thickness of $3{\mu}m$. Electric resistance of the contact was measured during the fretting corrosion test period. There was increase in resistance with fretting cycles. The change in resistance can be classified by 3 stages. The first stage exhibited low and stable resistance. Second stage showed steady increment of the resistance and third stage showed very high and intermittent resistance. The relationship between the failure cycle (Nf) and contact force (P) can be drawn as; It is possible to draw the prediction equation for the failure cycle of the electric connector corresponding to the very high and intermittent resistance under various environment conditions through the fretting tests under various conditions such as load, displacement, temperature.

In this paper, the performance of pre-equalization technique which can be applicable for the B-WLL uplink is evaluated and compared to post-equalization technique under three kinds of rain attenuation channels such as rain, intermittent light rain and thundershower. The BER performance comparisons of two algorithms (LMS and RLS) are investigated in the context of channel models and the length of training sequence. From the simulation results, it is shown that the post-equalization outperforms only at quite good channel conditions such as AWGN, while the pre-equalization can guarantee better BER performance at every channel conditions, especially performance gain increases as the severity of channel increases. It is concluded that the pre-equalizer using LMS algorithm is preferable at delay-tolerant situation where the complexity of algorithm is not a strict factor, while one using RLS is suitable for fast burst transmission with a relatively short training sequence.

Duplication of the alimentary tract, especially of the esophagus, have been regarded as rare cong- enital anomalies. However, they are being reported with increasing frequency in the literature. In the . ,- past they have been described by a variety of names, such as "enteric cysts", "intestinal cysts", "giant diverticula", "`mediastinal cysts of foregut origin" "enterogenous cysts" and other descriptive terms. . Most authorities now agree that these anomalies are best described by the term "duplications of the alimentary tract. The duplications [of the alimentary tract] are spherical or tubular structures which poses a well developed smooth muscle layer and are lined with a mucous membrane from any part of the alimentary tract. They may occur at any place in the digestive tube from the tongue to the rectum and usually are intimately attached to some portion of the alimentary tube. We have experienced a duplication of the esophagus in 14 years old middle schoolboy. He complained dysphagia, eructation and substernal pain associated with intermittent high fever and chilliness, increasing in severity for recent three weeks. Routine chest X-ray film revealed nore markable abnormal finding but esophagogram. revealed marked narrowing of the esophagus throughout with a large blind pouch in lower half with fistulous communication at mid portion of the esophagus. On thoracotomy, a large infected blind pouch communicating with the lumen of normal esophagus proximally, Was extended from the level of 5th to 10th thoracic spine. The duplicated segment of the esophagus has a common muscular .wall and proximal communication with the adjacent esophagus. The infected, duplicated esophagus was segmentally resected, and esophagogastrostomy with pyloroplasty was done by displacing the stomach into the right thoracic cavity through midline laparotomy. His Postoperative course was uneventful and discharged without complication.

Owing to the intermittent power generation of renewable energy sources (RESs), future wireless cellular networks are required to reliably aggregate power from retailers. In this paper, we propose a distributed power allocation (DPA) scheme for base stations (BSs) powered by retailers with heterogeneous RESs in order to deal with the unreliable power supply (UPS) problem. The goal of the proposed DPA scheme is to maximize our well-defined utility, which consists of power satisfaction and unit power costs including added costs as a non-subscriber, based on linear and quadratic cost models. To determine the optimal amount of DPA, we apply dual decomposition, which separates the master problem into sub-problems. Optimal power allocation from each retailer can be obtained by iteratively coordinating between the BSs and retailers. Finally, through a mathematical analysis, we show that the proposed DPA can overcome the UPS for BSs powered from heterogeneous RESs.

Pulmonary sequestration is an uncommon congenital pulmonary malformations characterized by presence of nonfunctioning lung tissue which receives its blood supply mostly from the anomalous systemic arteries. We have experienced a 30 year old male patient with a mediastinal mass complaining of intermittent chest pain, and the mass was histologically confirmed as extralobar pulmonary sequestration. The anomalous blood supply origined from the right pulmonary artery but there was no communication with the tracheobronchial tree. He underwent operation through midsternotomy incision for the purpose of concurrent resection of enlarged thymus noted on chest CT.

The purpose of this study is to carry out the task of engine hesitation which occurred intermittently in driving due to the defective CKPS of LPI vehicles. As the result of the wrong data from the equipment of D-logger, the signal error of CKPS caused the engine hesitation. We performed a study in the followings to analyze and investigate the cause effectively. First, we have investigated the control wiring harness and connector pin contact defect inspection. Second, we have inspected the defection of CKPS separately. From this study, it was found that the engine hesitation were caused by the bad durability and we have showed how to diagnosis the fault of the engine hesitation intermittently while driving. Therefore, it is determined that we have to improve the durability of the CKPS through a strict quality control and to increase the reliability.
