Horace N. Allen, an American physician, was a Presbyterian missionary to Korea. In 1886, he wrote the annual report of the Korean government hospital, summarizing patient statistics according to outpatient and inpatient classification for the first ever in Korean history. In the report, he speculated that hemoptysis cases of outpatient might have been mainly caused by distoma. Allen's conjecture was noteworthy because only a few years lapsed since the first scientific report of paragonimiasis. However, he was not sure of his assumption either because it was not evidently supported by proper microscopic or post-mortem examinations. In this letter, we thus revisit his assumption with our parasitological data recently obtained from Joseon period mummies.

Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is a network based IP mobility management protocol. PMIPv6 make sure that the IP address of the mobile node remains the same as long as the mobile node roams with in the PMIPv6 domain. A mobile node roams with in a PMIPv6 domain. PMIPv6 protocol doesn't provide the mobility support once the mobile node moves from one PMIPv6 domain to another PMIPv6 domain. This paper proposes a Software Defined Networking (SDN) based PMIPv6 scheme which provides the mobility support for inter PMIPv6 domain movement of mobile node. In the proposed architecture each PMIPv6 domain has a SDN controller and SDN controllers from different domains communicate with each other to share the mobility information.

Aggregate operator which belongs to query operations are important in specialized systems such as geographic information system(GIS) and spatial database system. Most of data describing objects in the real world are characterized by space and time attributes. Till now, however, works on aggregate operations have only dealt with spatial or temporal aspect of object. The current demand of aggregate operations relates to spatiotemporal data which are contained both spatial and temporal data concurrently. Therefore, work on spatiotemporal operations is focused on database area. In this paper, we propose spatiotemporal aggregate functions that operate on spatiotemporal data. Above all, we support spatiotemporal aggregate functions on the basis of three dimensional spatiotemporal models that are defined with the linear one dimensional temporal domain. The proposed algorithms are evaluated through some implementation results. We are sure that the achievement of our work is useful and efficient.

This thesis is a study about Mai Jue Chan Wei (脈訣闡微) among many medical books by Chen Shi Duo (陳士鐸) who was a famous medical practitioner of China under the early Qing dynasty. Chen Shi Duo (陳士鐸) who is from, Shaoxing (紹興), Zhejiang (浙江) had his pen-name as Jing Zhi (敬之) and also was called as Zhu Hua Zi (朱華子) or Lian Gong (蓮公) under pseudonym of Yuan Gong (遠公). He was a medical practitioner under the early Qing dynasty in China and the date of birth and death was not for sure nor was written in the history book.

Edge detection always influenced by noise belong to the original image, therefore need use some methods to sort this issue, mean shift algorithm has the smooth function which suit for the edge detection purpose, so adopted to fade out the unimportant information, and the sensitive noise portions. After this section, use the Canny algorithm to pick up the contour of the objects we focus on, meanwhile select the Soble operator that has the orientation attribute to support the method work well. In final, take experiment and get the perfect result we wanted, make sure this method make sense and better than the sole Edge detection algorithm,

Let $\{(X_{ni}|1{\leq}i{\leq}n,\;n{\geq}1)\}$ be an array of rowwise negatively associated random variables. In this paper we discuss $n^{{\alpha}p-2}h(n)max_{1{\leq}k{\leq}n}|{\sum}_{i=1}^kX_{ni}|/n^{\alpha}{\rightarrow}0$ completely as $n{\rightarrow}{\infty}$ under not necessarily identically distributed with suitable conditions for ${\alpha}$>1/2, 0${\alpha}p{\geq}1$ and a slowly varying function h(x)>0 as $x{\rightarrow}{\infty}$. In addition, we obtain the complete convergence of moving average process based on negative association random variables which extends the result of Zhang (1996).

We propose a PC cluster using general-purpose microprocessors and a high-speed network for simulating ANN (Artificial Neural Network) processes on Linux OS. We apply this cluster to intelligent information processing such as ANN simulation. The elapsed time for simulating ANNs can be reduced from 7,295 seconds by a PE (Processing Element) to 1,226 seconds by six PEs. The reliability of a pattern-classification using ANNs can be improved by the proposed ANN, Randomized-ANN. In order to generate a Randomized-ANN, we choose three ANNs and combine the output results from three huts by means of logical AND. Results are as follows: The mean correct answer rate is 94.4%, the mean wrong answer rate is only 0.1 %, and the mean unknown answer rate is 5.5 %. We make sure that Randomized-ANN approach reduces the mean wrong answer rate within a tenth part and improves the reliability of Japanese coin classification.

In 2007, 9,128 fires are attributed to electrical equipments. These fires resulted in 29 deaths and 262 injuries. Arc-faults were one of the major causes of these fires. When an unintended arc-fault occurs, it generates intense heat that can easily ignite surrounding combustibles. Conventional circuit breakers only respond to overloads, short circuits, and leakage currents. Therefore, the breakers do not protect against arcing conditions. This paper presents results obtained in experiments on ignition behavior of wire by series arc fault currents and techniques developed to detect the arc-faults. The developed technique was tested after installation to make sure they are working properly and protecting the circuit. If the developed arc detecting technique is applied, the electrical fires caused by an arc-fault can be reduced.

Ferricytochrome c was artificially made to receive the aqueous electrons evolved through the influence of illuminated chloroplast. This ferricytochrome c, which was bombarded by electrons, was reduced to ferrocytochrome c by making sure that a certain cytochrome is reduced. This may require an electronic attack that is created by the chloroplast inside the plant cell. The possibility of reversing the oxidation of ferrocytochrome c by cytochrome oxidase was examined using a contrived redox system composed of cytochrome oxidase, ferricytochrome c and chloroplast with illumination. We recognized that the oxidase is unserviceable for the reversibleness in spite of the existence of chloroplast.

This article presents an experimental study on the effect of temperature and solid volume fraction of nanoparticles on the dynamic viscosity for the CuO/EG-water nanofluid. Nanoparticles with diameter of 40 nm are used in the present study to prepare nanofluid by two-step method. A "Brookfield viscometer" has been used to measure the dynamic viscosity of nanofluid with solid volume fraction up to 2% at the temperature range between 20 to $60^{\circ}C$. The findings have shown that dynamic viscosity of nanofluid increases with increasing particle volume fraction and decreasing temperature. Nine different correlations are developed on experimental data point to predict the relative dynamic viscosity of nanofluid at different temperatures. To make sure of accuracy of the proposed correlations, margin of deviation is presented at the end of this study. The results show excellent agreement between experimental data and those obtained through the correlations.
