본 논문은 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing; 직교 주파수 분할 다중)또는 MIMO(Multiple-input Multiple-output; 다중안테나) 시스템과 같이 여러개의 부채널이 존재하는 노드들로 구성된 다중 홉 중계 네트워크에서, 부채널할당 및 전력할당의 동시 최적화를 위한 통합적 접근방법을 제시한다. 다수의 부채널이 존재하는 경우 중계기는 전력할당외에도 첫 번째 홉과 두 번째 홉간의 부채널 matching을 통해 성능을 최적화 할 수 있게 된다. 그러나 두 홉간의 부채널 matching문제는 복잡한 조합론적 문제이므로 부채널할당과 전력할당의 동시 최적화 문제는 일반적으로 그 최적해를 구하기가 아주 어려운 문제로 알려져 있다. 하지만 본 논문에서는 재배열 부등식을 이용하여 복잡한 동시최적화 문제가 많은 경우 효율적으로 풀릴 수 있음을 보이고 다양한 예제롤 통해 제안된 접근법이 아주 유용함을 보인다.

최근 무선 센서 네트워크를 통해 멀티미디어 데이터를 전송하고자 하는 노력이 늘고 있다. 무선 센서 네트워크는 저 전력 소형 노드를 이용하며, 낮은 전송 속도를 갖는 네트워크이다. 하지만 멀티미디어 데이터는 비교적 큰 용량을 가지며, 전송 시 지연에 민감한 특성을 갖는다. 그러므로 무선 센서 네트워크를 이용하여 멀티미디어 데이터를 전송하는 것은 어려운 일이 아닐 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 멀티미디어 데이터 전송을 위해 경로의 겹침이 없는 노드 독립적인 (Node-Disjoint) Multi-path Routing방법을 제안한다. 대용량의 데이터 전송 시 기존의 Single-path Routing 방법은 하나의 경로만을 사용하기 때문에 특정 노드에 부하를 가중시켜 데이터 손실이나 지연을 야기 시킬 수 있지만, 본 논문에서 제안하는 TinyONDMR(Tiny Optimized Node-Disjoint Multi-path Routing)방법은 서로 분리된 다른 경로에 데이터를 분산시켜 전송함으로써, 네트워크의 성능을 향상시킨다. 또한 Multi-path를 찾기 위한 라우팅 과정에서 발생하는 라우팅 오버헤드를 줄여 네트워크 부하를 감소시킨다.

FEM analysis is essential to shorten the development time and reduce the cost for developing high-performance machine tools. Mount joint parts play important role to ensure static and dynamic stability of machine tools. This paper suggests a computational modeling of mount joint part of machine tools. MATRIX27 element of ANSYS is adopted to model mount joint parts. MATRIX27 allows the definition of stiffness and damping matrices in matrix form. The matrix is assumed to relate two nodes, each with six degrees of freedom per node. Stiffness and damping values of commercial mount products are measured to build a database for FEM analysis. Jack mounts with rubber pad are exemplified in this paper. The database extracted from the experiments is also used to estimate of stiffness and damping of untested mounts. FEM analysis of machine tools system with the suggested mount computational model is performed. Static and dynamic results prove the feasibility of the suggested mount model.

Purpose: Amelanotic melanoma represents a melanoma with an absence or a small number of melanin pigments and comprises 2% of all melanomas. These melanomas are frequently misdiagnosed, probably because of its nonspecific clinical features and difficulty in diagnosis, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. We report a patient with amelanotic melanoma, who underwent surgical treatment with sentinel lymph node biopsy using gamma probe. Methods: A 32-year-old female was presented with a slowly growing ill-defined, hypopigmented nonerythematous lesion with nail defect on right index finger tip. Preoperative punch biopsy was performed, showing an amelanotic melanoma. Sentinel lymph node biopsy was done using gamma probe(Crystal probe system, CRYSTAL PHOTONICS GmbH, Germany) and confirmed no evidence of regional lymph node metastases. The patient underwent amputation at the proximal interphalangeal joint. Results: Histopathologic findings showed superficial spreading melanoma. There were no melanin pigments in Hematoxylin & Eosin stain but positive immunohistochemical stainings for S-100 protein and Hmb45, which were consistent with amelanotic melanoma. Patient's postoperative course was uneventful without any complication and had no evidence of recurrence of tumor in 6 months follow-up period. Conclusion: Amelanotic melanoma is extremely rare subtype of malignant melanoma with histopathologic findings of atypical melanocytes without melanin pigments. Early detection is crucial since survival is strongly related to tumor thickness and tissue invasion at the time of diagnosis. Wide excision is the treatment of choice and other conjunctive therapy has not been successful.

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor except for multiple myeloma. Hematogenous spread of osteosarcoma presents the t1susal route of dissemination. Lung metastasis is the most common, however the lymph node involvement is quite rare. In addition, according to Mirra, radiologically detectable involvement of lymph node is an extremely rare manifestation of osteosarcoma. The authors had experienced a patient with an osteosarcoma of the right distal femur which spread to the right inguinal lymph node and lung. After preoperative chemotheraphy, a limb salvage operation was performed around the lesion of right distal femur and the right inguinal lymph nodes were dissected. A adjuvant postoperative chemotheraphy was performed. After the treatment, there was no recurrence of osteosarcoma or any other metastatic evidence for two years and 8 months.

본 연구는 사람의 사용자 전신을 촬영한 이미지를 분석하여, 사용자별 움직임에 대한 정상 가동 범위를 영상으로 디스플레이(display)하는 운동 트레이닝 시스템 구축에 관한 것이다. 본 연구는 입점(立點, standing point)을 기준으로 사용자 전신의 정면과 측면을 촬영하는 카메라부(C), 그리고 카메라부의 촬영 이미지를 분석하여 인체의 관절 위치에 노드(node)를 설정하고, 입점을 원점으로 하는 공간좌표계에 노드를 배치하여 그 사용자의 노드 좌표값을 도출하는 이미지 분석부(I·A)와 이미 설정된 표준 노드 좌표값에 매칭된 운동 동작별 정상 노드 가동범위를 사용자 노드 좌표값에 맞추어 보정하여, 상기에서 언급한 사용자 노드 정상 가동 상태를 정면 영상과 측면 영상으로 생성하여 디스플레이하는 재생부(R·P)를 포함하고 있는 시스템으로 구성된다. 따라서 연구의 방법으로는 주요선행연구와 자료조사를 통해 선행 연구와의 차별성을 기할 수 있는 방법을 제시했으며, 이에 따른 운동 트레이닝 시스템을 구축하고자 하는데 연구의 목적을 둔 것이다.

Purpose: The aim of this pilot study was to determine the effect of soft tissue technique (STT) in Axillary Web Syndrome (AWS) following sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in breast cancer patients by examining the upper extremity function, range of motion, and pain. Methods: Nineteen patients with breast cancer-related AWS were evaluated. STT was performed on the symptom area for treatment of AWS symptoms. We evaluated AWS symptoms and pain intensity using a visual analogue scale (VAS), and functional disability using the Korean version of the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire, glenohumeral joint (GHJ) flexion and abduction range of motion (ROM) with or without elbow extension. Results: Visual analyses of the data suggest a modest effect of STT in improving GHJ flexion, abduction ROM with or without elbow extension, DASH for upper extremity function, and Pain. The statistically significant improvement in baseline observed for pain, DASH, and ROM data made it impossible to assess the effects of STT on those outcomes. There were no adverse events. Conclusions: STT may be an effective and safe treatment option for AWS patients recovering from breast cancer treatment; however, further research is needed.

In the conventional PNC scheme, the relay node requires simultaneous transmission of two source nodes with strict power control and carrier-phase matching between two received symbols. However, this pre-equalization process at source nodes is not practical in fading channels. In this letter, we propose a novel physical-layer network coding (PNC) scheme with log-likelihood ratio (LLR) conversion for fading channels, which utilizes not pre-equalizer at transmitters (source nodes) but joint detector at receiver (relay node). The proposed PNC requires only channel side information at the receiver (CSIR), which is far more practical assumption in fading channels. In addition, the proposed PNC scheme can use the conventional modulation scheme like M-QAM regardless of modulation order, while the conventional PNC scheme requires reconfiguration of modulation scheme at the source nodes for detection of the received signal at relay node. We consider the combination of the proposed PNC and channel coding, and find that the proposed PNC scheme is easily combined the linear channel codes such as turbo codes, LDPC, and convolutional codes.

The authors apply the transfer influence coefficient method to the 3-dimensional vibration analysis of beam with multi-joints and formulate a general algorithm to analysis the longitudinal, flexural and torsional coupled free vibration. In this paper, the structure, which is mainly founded in the robot arms, cranes and so on, has some crooked parts, subsystems and joints but has no closed loop in this system. It is modeled as the beam of a distributed mass system with massless translational, rotational and torsional springs in each node, and joint elements of release or roll at which node the displacement vector is discontinuous. The superiorty of the present method to the transfer matrix method in the computation accuracy was confirmed by the numerical computation results. Moreover, we confirmed that boundary and intermediate conditions could ve controlled by varying the values o the spring constants.
