A rapid progress of the next-generation non-volatile memory device has been made in recent years. Metal/insulator/Metal multi-layer structure resistive RAM(ReRAM) has attracted a great deal of attention because it has advantages of simple fabrication, low cost, low power consumption, and low operating voltage. This paper describes the working principle of the ReRAM device, a review of fabrication techniques, and characteristics of flexible ReRAM devices using graphene oxide as an insulating layer and ReRAM devices using multi-layered insulator. The switching characteristics of the above ReRAM devices have been compared. The oxidized graphene could be employed as an insulator of next generation ReRAM devices.

Objectives : Our study aimed to investigate the sustained effects of sham (SHAM) and verum acupuncture (ACUP) into the post-stimulus resting state. Methods : In contrast to previous studies, in order to define the changes in resting state induced by acupuncture, changes were evaluated with a multi-method approach by using regional homogeneity (ReHo) and amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (ALFF). Twelve healthy participants received SHAM and ACUP stimulation right GB34 (Yanglingquan) and the neural changes between post- and pre-stimulation were detected. Results : The following results were found; in both ReHo and ALFF, the significant foci of; left and right middle frontal gyrus, left medial frontal gyrus, left superior frontal gyrus, and right posterior cingulate cortex, areas that are known as a default mode network, showed increased connectivity. In addition, in ReHo, but not in ALFF, brain activation changes in the insula, anterior cingulate cortex, and the thalamus, which are associated with acupuncture pain modulation, were found. Conclusions : In this study, results obtained by using ReHo and ALFF, showed that acupuncture can modulate the post-stimulus resting state and that ReHo, but not ALFF, can also detect the neural changes that were induced by the acupuncture stimulations. Although more future studies with ReHo and ALFF will be needed before any firm conclusions can be drawn, our study shows that particularly ReHo could be an interesting method for future clinical neuroimaging studies on acupuncture.

The surface chemistry of $Re_2(CO)_{10}$ deposition for preparing highly dispersed rhenium catalysts and the formation of active site for the metathesis were studied. Alumina as support was treated at 1223K(DA) and 773k(PDA), respectively. The metathesis activity of the catalysts at 298K was measured by using pure propene under atmospheric pressure. The oxidation number of rhenium on PDA was very high, and that on DA was zero-valent with highly dispersed state. The prepared Re/DA catalyst was easily activated by treating with oxygen gas at low temperatures after thermal decomposition at high temperatures. The activity of Re/DA catalyst, even with very low rhenium loading, was much higher than that of Re/PDA or conventional $Re_2O_7/Al_2O_3$ catalysts. Therefore, rhenium carbonyl was effective for preparing a highy active metathesis catalyst with very low rhenium loading. Rhenium ion on Re/DA catalyst seemed to be bonded to two oxygen atoms on DA surface, that is, two-valent. The two-valent rhenium ion was changed to about six-valent by treating with oxygen. It could be considered that propene metathesis occurred through carbene complex which was formed on the six-valent rhenium ions.

In this study, numerical calculations are carried out in order to evaluate the performance of low-Re Reynolds stress model based on SSG model for a swirling turbulent flow in a pipe. The results are compared with those of k-ε model, GL model and the experimental data. The results show that low-Re Reynolds stress model and GL model give better results than k-ε model. In the region near the wall, low-Re Reynolds stress model improves the predictions. However, there is no large difference between the predictions with two Reynolds stress models.

The purpose of this study is to find the continuance intention to use for reCAPTCHA technology which has information security and social contributions (decrypting archives) according to the user's pro-social level. In this research, reCAPTCHA technique generally gives users to information security and decrypting archives. However, as a result of preliminary survey, most users were not even aware of information security and social contributions (decrypting archives) functions. Therefore, in this research, we will measure with two kinds of focus. The first is the assumption that there will be also a difference in the continuance use depending pro-social level of the user of information technology, second we explain only the function of information security to the first group as well as decrypting archives to the second group. Generally, pro-social means that degree of understanding and supporting to the other people's interest, actions, needs, help, and care. In this research, we assume that if users have a low level of others care, they might evaluate that reCAPTCHA technology's social contributions is low. While they have a high level of others care, they recognize reCAPTCHA technology's social contribution is high and then they tend to use this technology continuously. Through this research, we finally find the most efficient way to increase the degree of continuance use of information technology.

In the past year, the increasing concern about the biometric recognition makes the great activities on the security fields, such as the entrance control or user authentication. In particular, although the features of face recognition, such as user friendly and non-contact made it to be used widely, unhappily it has some disadvantages of low accuracy or low Re-attempts Rates. For this reason, I suggest the new approach to re-classify the classified data of recognition result data to solve the problems. For this study, I will use the typical appearance-based, PCA(Principal Component Analysis) algorithm and verify the performance improvement by adopting the re-classification approach using 200 peoples (10 pictures per one person).

The development of sail gas has increased the production of ethane as well as natural gas. The decline in the market price for ethane has led to a change in the petroleum-based ethylene production process into an ethane-based ethylene production process and an increase in the ethane/ethylene trade volume. Large-scale ethane/ethylene carrier have been needed due to an increase in long-distance trade from the US, and cargo type change have leaded to consider a liquefaction process to re-liquefy Boil-Off gas generated during the voyage. In this paper, the liquefaction system of Liquefied Ethane Gas carrier was evaluated with Low-GWP (Low-Global Warming Potential) refrigerant and process parameters, Boil-Off Gas pressure and expansion valve outlet pressure, were optimized. Low-GWP refrigerants were propane (R290), propylene(R1270), carbon dioxide(R744) was considered at two type of liquefaction process such as Linde and cascade cycle. The results show that the optimal pressure point depends on the individual refrigerant and the highest liquefaction efficiency of carbon dioxide (R744) - propane (R290) refrigerant.

In this paper, we introduce an efficient and security-enhanced re-authentication and key exchange protocol for IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs using Re-authentication Period. We introduce a low computational complexity re-authentication and key exchange procedure that provides robustness in face of cryptographic attacks. This procedure accounts for the wireless media limitations, e.g. limited bandwidth and noise. We introduce the Re-authentication Period that reflects the frequency that the re-authentication procedure should be executed. We provide the user with suitable guidelines that will help in the determination of the re-authentication period.

In this paper, we consider a power re-allocation technique in order to enhance the frequency efficiency of the low performance user in a cell-free multiple input multiple output (MIMO) network. The AP first allocates transmit power to the user to be proportional to the large-scale fading coefficients of the connected users. Then, the AP reduces the power of the users who were allocated power greater than the threshold ratio of total allocated power to be equal to the threshold ratio of the allocated power. Finally, the AP re-allocates the reduced power from the strong channel user to the user who has the worst channel condition, and thus, the frequency efficiency of the low performance user can be enhanced. In the simulation results, we verify the performance of the power re-allocation technique in terms of the spectral efficiency of the low performance user.
