This study aims to examine the limitations of status that describe archives based on the Archival rules, and to propose a new method using the Records in Context - Conceptual model (RiC-CM) as a solution. Given this, the study conducted literature reviews and case studies. The solutions based on RiC-CM and its effects on the limitations of the existing environment are as follows. First, RiC-CM can describe multiple provenances about archives. This can be solved by defining individual records and provenances as "entity" and expressing their associations as relationships. The interrelation of entities alone can more accurately represent the information of provenances associated with a particular archive, making it easier to identify the overall context that makes records. Second, RiC-CM can link related files. Those that belong to a specific records group (fonds) can be resolved by assigning them to individual entities and making interrelation according to the context that makes records. This method makes it possible to serve information about the context that makes records. From the user's point of view, more options are available for searching records. Third, RiC-CM can link all relevant producer-made records related to a specific production organization. If organizations are related to each other, they can be defined as "entity," and their relationship can be expressed as "associated with." It helps to comprehensively examine the context of provenances. The findings of this study are expected to be used as a basis for future research on RiC-CM, in response to the paradigm shift for electronic records management systems.

LOD(Linked Open Data) cloud is a practical implementation of semantic web. We suggested a new method that provides identity links conveniently in LOD cloud. It also allows changes in LOD to be reflected to searching results without any omissions. LOD provides detail descriptions of entities to public in RDF triple form. RDF triple is composed of subject, predicates, and objects and presents detail description for an entity. Links in LOD cloud, named identity links, are realized by asserting entities of different RDF triples to be identical. Currently, the identity link is provided with creating a link triple explicitly in which associates its subject and object with source and target entities. Link triples are appended to LOD. With identity links, a knowledge achieves from an LOD can be expanded with different knowledge from different LODs. The goal of LOD cloud is providing opportunity of knowledge expansion to users. Appending link triples to LOD, however, has serious difficulties in discovering identity links between entities one by one notwithstanding the enormous scale of LOD. Newly added entities cannot be reflected to searching results until identity links heading for them are serialized and published to LOD cloud. Instead of creating enormous identity links, we propose LOD to prepare its own link policy. The link policy specifies a set of target LODs to link and constraints necessary to discover identity links to entities on target LODs. On searching, it becomes possible to access newly added entities and reflect them to searching results without any omissions by referencing the link policies. Link policy specifies a set of predicate pairs for discovering identity between associated entities in source and target LODs. For the link policy specification, we have suggested a set of vocabularies that conform to RDFS and OWL. Identity between entities is evaluated in accordance with a similarity of the source and the target entities' objects which have been associated with the predicates' pair in the link policy. We implemented a system "Change Acceptable In-Depth Searching System(CAIDS)". With CAIDS, user's searching request starts from depth_0 LOD, i.e. surface searching. Referencing the link policies of LODs, CAIDS proceeds in-depth searching, next LODs of next depths. To supplement identity links derived from the link policies, CAIDS uses explicit link triples as well. Following the identity links, CAIDS's in-depth searching progresses. Content of an entity obtained from depth_0 LOD expands with the contents of entities of other LODs which have been discovered to be identical to depth_0 LOD entity. Expanding content of depth_0 LOD entity without user's cognition of such other LODs is the implementation of knowledge expansion. It is the goal of LOD cloud. The more identity links in LOD cloud, the wider content expansions in LOD cloud. We have suggested a new way to create identity links abundantly and supply them to LOD cloud. Experiments on CAIDS performed against DBpedia LODs of Korea, France, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. They present that CAIDS provides appropriate expansion ratio and inclusion ratio as long as degree of similarity between source and target objects is 0.8 ~ 0.9. Expansion ratio, for each depth, depicts the ratio of the entities discovered at the depth to the entities of depth_0 LOD. For each depth, inclusion ratio illustrates the ratio of the entities discovered only with explicit links to the entities discovered only with link policies. In cases of similarity degrees with under 0.8, expansion becomes excessive and thus contents become distorted. Similarity degree of 0.8 ~ 0.9 provides appropriate amount of RDF triples searched as well. Experiments have evaluated confidence degree of contents which have been expanded in accordance with in-depth searching. Confidence degree of content is directly coupled with identity ratio of an entity, which means the degree of identity to the entity of depth_0 LOD. Identity ratio of an entity is obtained by multiplying source LOD's confidence and source entity's identity ratio. By tracing the identity links in advance, LOD's confidence is evaluated in accordance with the amount of identity links incoming to the entities in the LOD. While evaluating the identity ratio, concept of identity agreement, which means that multiple identity links head to a common entity, has been considered. With the identity agreement concept, experimental results present that identity ratio decreases as depth deepens, but rebounds as the depth deepens more. For each entity, as the number of identity links increases, identity ratio rebounds early and reaches at 1 finally. We found out that more than 8 identity links for each entity would lead users to give their confidence to the contents expanded. Link policy based in-depth searching method, we proposed, is expected to contribute to abundant identity links provisions to LOD cloud.

Background and Objectives: Subacute necrotizing lymphadenitis or Kikuchi's disease has now become recognized in many parts of the world as a well-defined clinicopathologic entity. It typically affects cervical lymph nodes of young women, and subsides spontaneously within a few months without recurrences. The purpose of this study is to report the clinicopathologic finding, radiologic finding and many laboratory tests to elaborate the criteria that are useful in distinguishing this entity from inflammatory disease, granulomatous disease, lymphoma, malignant disease. Material and Methods: Authors evaluated 22 patients, who were diagnosed as subacute necrotizing lymphadenitis on excisional biopsy or fine needle aspiration cytology with retrospective chart review. Results: The patient population consisted of 21 women and 1 men. The mean age was 25 years old(range 17 to 42 years). All patient had palpable neck mass and associated fever, headache, weight loss, otalgia, diarrhea, night sweating. and associated disorder is dermatitis, hepatitis B, SLE, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, albinism et al. The multiple bilateral involvement of cervical lymph node was 20 cases(91%) and multiple unilateral 18 cases(82%), multiple bilateral 2 cases(9%). Solitary involvement was 2 cases(9%), mean size of involved lymph node was 2.0cm. In laboratory tests, leukopenia 17 cases(72%), elevated ESR 12 cases(54%), elevated GOT, GPT 3 cases(13%). In CT finding, lymph nodes enhanced in homogeneous fashion, and there was no evidence of central necrosis. Conclusion: Subacute necrotizing lymphadenitis, Kikuchi's disease may be easily confused clinically, pathologically, radiologically with malignant lymphoma, inflammatory disease, granulomatous disease. We should consider open biopsy of lymph node in the patient which had unilateral multiple cervical lymph node and in laboratory tests, were leukopenia, elevated ESR, especially in young women. otherwise, result of fine needle aspiration biopsy is nonspecific, excisional biopsy is recommended in order to differentiate other disease.

The most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism is a single adenoma accounts for more than 85% and about 1-2% in multiple occurrence. The adenoma arises mainly in the neck and rarely in the mediastinum. The simultaneous occurrence is extremely rare. A 73-year-old man came to our clinic complained about sense of falling forward during last eight months. The brain MRI and vestibular function test showed non-specific findings but total calcium and intact parathyroid hormone levels were markedly elevated. Radiologic studies and sesta-MIBI scan revealed multiple masses in lower paratracheal area and superior mediastinum. We performed mass excision with transcervical approach and all of them were diagnosed as parathyroid adenoma. After surgery, intact PTH and calcium levels returned to the normal range and his symptoms were dramatically improved. We report the unique and rare disease entity with a brief literature review.

The basal cell nevus syndrome is a well recognized entity, the major symptoms of which are basal cell nevi, multiple jaw cysts, skeletal anomalies, and ectopic calcification. The syndrome follows a hereditary pattern, which is characterized by a highly penetrant, autosomal dominant gene with multiple and variable effects. The patient often has a characteristic face, with frontal and temporoparietal bossing, which results in an increased cranial circumference. The eyes may appear widely separated, and 40 percent of patients have true ocular hypertelorism. Jaw cysts are one of the most constant features of the syndrome and are present in at least 75 percent of the patients. The cysts are odontogenic keratocysts and frequently multiple. Radiographically, the cysts in patients with basal cell nevus syndrome do not differ significantly from isolated keratocysts. The cysts in patients with this syndrome are often associated with the crowns of unerupted teeth; on radiographs they may mimic dentigerous cysts. We report a case of multiple odontogenic keratocysts associated with basal cell nevus syndrome with the literature of review.

Objective : The authors characterize a syndrome of multiple neurogenic tumors in the spinal canal, which is unclassifiable by the current National Institute of Health[NIH] criteria for neurofibromatosis. Methods : We retrospectively examined cases in which two or more spinal neurogenic tumors were detected by magnetic resonance[MR] imaging and which had been pathologically confirmed. Eighteen patients were recruited between February 1986 and March 2002. According to NIH criteria, eight cases were neurofibromatosis type 1[NF1], four were type 2[NF2], and six were neither type 1 nor type 2 [Unclassifiable : UC]. The locations of lesions, clinical presentations, radiological findings, and pathological results with immunohistochemistry were reviewed. Results : In the case of NF2, three of four cases were intradural tumors. Pathological examinations revealed neurilemmomas in two of four NF2 and all of the UC cases. In the case of NF1, pathological examinations showed seven neurofibromas and one neurilemmoma. Concerning UC, the age at presentation was middle-aged to late [mean age 48.5, range 35 to 64], which contrasted with ordinary NF2, where patients tended to become symptomatic before 20years of age. The pathological examinations of UC cases revealed neurilemmoma similar to most of NF2 and the immunohistochemical study showed characteristic of NF1. Conclusion : Multiple neurogenic tumors in the spinal canal are an under-recognized disease entity. Further studies for genetic aberration in multiple spinal neurogenic tumors are needed.

Market means of spectrum trading have been utilized as a vital method of spectrum sharing and access in future cognitive radio system. In this paper, we consider the spectrum trading with multiple primary carrier providers (PCP) leasing the spectrum to multiple secondary carrier providers (SCP) for a short period of time. Several factors including the price of the resource, duration of leasing, and the spectrum quality guides the proposed model. We formulate three trading policies based on the game theory for dynamic spectrum access in a LTE based cognitive radio system (CRS). In the first, we consider utility function based resource sharing (UFRS) without any knowledge of past transaction. In the second policy, each SCP deals with PCP using a non-cooperative resource sharing (NCRS) method which employs optimal strategy based on reinforcement learning. In variation of second policy, third policy adopts a Nash bargaining while incorporating a recommendation entity in resource sharing (RERS). The simulation results suggest overall increase in throughput while maintaining higher spectrum efficiency and fairness.

Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is rare entity, characterized by the presence of multiple, firm nodules within the dermis of scrotal skin. The lesions are evident as asymptomatic, round, firm, yellowish papules, from several millimeters up to 1 cm in diameter, with a tendency to occur symmetrically. Because polypoid formation of the calcified cysts is unusual in scrotal calcinosis, we report our experience of a case of scrotal calcinosis with cysts having polypoid appearence. A 34-year-old man was admitted to our department with painless, firm, widespread nodules within the scrotum. Patient started to have these lesions at puberty and progressed to a polypoid form over time. There was neither surgical nor medical treatment had been attempted before our treatment. Physical examination revealed localized polypoid cysts in addition to multiple small, firm nodules within the scrotal skin. No underlying anomalies were detected in the physical examination and laboratory analysis. We experienced the treatment of polypoid idiopathic scrotal calcinosis and a case is presented with the review of literatures.

This paper presents a method for a congestion management in the competitive market which is modeled as the multiple bilateral transaction. Traditionary, the congestion management for the multiple bilateral transaction is accomplished through the process of adjustment bids. It is necessary in for the market entity to submit their price information when the congestion is occured. Finally, the ISOs can be blown about the approximated contract price of participants from the price of adjustment bids. However, the entities can submit only the amount of their contract to ISOs and ISOs are required the method to manage the congestion only by the contracted quantity. Therefore, this paper presents a method for congestion management by curtailing the only contracted quantity of market entities. To evaluated the above problem, we suggest Bilateral Transaction Distribution Factors(BTDFs), which is the sensitivity of line flow with curtailment of transactions. Using this factor, we studied about congestion management when the objective function is to minimize total curtailment of transaction.

As the compact and easily accessible handheld devices, such as cellular phones and MP3 players equipped with image acquisition functionality, are becoming widely available among common users, various applications of images are rapidly increasing. Image related services and software such as web-based image presentation and image manipulation for personal or commercial purpose enable users to view contents of remote image archive and to manipulate enormous amount of images in local or network based storage as well. It is necessary for users to identify the images efficiently so that the same images are perceived as one physical entity instead of recognizing them as different images as the trends are getting stronger. In order to support this environment, we propose a method that generates image identifiers or indexing for images within a solid and efficient manner. The proposed image identifier utilizes multiple index values. The integration of component index values creates a unique composite value that can be used as a file name, file system identifier, or database index. Our experimental results on generation of constituent index values have shown favorable results.
