In this paper, an efficient threshold-based filtering (TF) buffer management scheme is proposed. The TF is capable of minimizing the overall loss performance and improving the fairness of buffer usage in a shared buffer packet switch. The TF consists of two mechanisms. One mechanism is to classify the output ports as sctive or inactive by comparing their queue lengths with a dedicated buffer allocation factor. The other mechanism is to filter the arrival packets of inactive output ports when the total queue length exceeds a threshold value. A theoretical queuing model of TF is formulated and resolved for the overall packet loss probability. Computer simulations are used to compare the overall loss performance of TF, dynamic threshold (DT), static threshold (ST) and pushout (PO). We find that TF scheme is more robust against dynamic traffic variations than DT and ST. Also, although the over-all loss performance between TF and PO are close to each other, the implementation of TF is much simpler than the PO.

The magnetic properties of the organic/inorganic hybrid copper-methylenediphosphonate, Cu2(O3PCH2PO3) were examined by performing the spin dimer analysis based on the extended Hckel tight binding method. In Cu2(O3PCH2PO3) the CuO3 chains made up of edge-sharing CuO5 square pyramidal units are inter-linked by O-P-O bridges. The Cu-O-Cu superexchange interactions of the CuO3 chains are negligibly weak compared with the Cu-O…O-Cu super-superexchange interactions that occur between the CuO3 chains. The spin exchange interactions of Cu2(O3PCH2PO3) are dominated by three super-superexchange interactions, which leads to a three-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin lattice. The strongest spin exchange interactions form isolated spin dimers, which suggests that, to a first approximation, the magnetic properties can be described in terms of an isolated spin dimer model.

To develop a promoter capable of driving transgene expression in non-model fish, we identified and characterized the muscle-specific alpha-actin gene in olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus (PoACTC1). The regulatory region of PoACTC1 includes putative regulatory elements such as a TATA box, two MyoD binding sites, three CArG boxes, and a CCAAT box. Microinjection experiments demonstrated that the regulatory region of PoACTC1, covering from -2,126 bp to +751 bp, just prior to the start codon, drove the expression of red fluorescent protein in developing zebrafish embryos and hatching olive flounder. These results suggest that the regulatory region of PoACTC1 may be useful in developing a promoter for biotechnological applications such as transgene expression in olive flounder.

본 시험은 배양액 내 pH 변화에 따른 이온과 EC의 모형을 구명하고자 수행하였다. 배양액 내 $HPO_4{^{-2}}$와 $H_2PO_4{^-}$의 변량에 따른 pH가 변하는데, pH 4.0-5.0은 EC의 변량이 상승하고, pH 5.0-7.0은 EC의 변량이 완만하고, pH 7.0-8.0은 다시 상승하였다. 배양액 내 다량원소의 변량을 보면, pH가 상승할수록 K, Ca, N, P의 이온 농도도 증가하는데, 특히 K과 P의 변량이 크게 나타났다. 반면 Mg와 S의 변량은 일정하게 유지되었다. 배양액의 IBM(ion balance model)에 따른 분석에서, EC의 변량은 크게 변하지 않고, 이온의 균형점이 a분면에서 d분면으로 이동하면 pH가 상승하면서 음이온 보다 양이온이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 pH 변량이 높을수록 EC 중앙선으로부터 멀어져 배양액의 이온 불균형이 증가되었다. $HPO_4{^{-2}}$와 $H_2PO_4{^-}$의 변량에 대한 K와 Ca의 당량비 보정은 pH가 증가할수록 K는 감소하지만 Ca는 증가하였고, EC 변량의 영향보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. K와 Ca의 당량비 보정에 따른 pH 변량은 0.97의 이차 다항식 상관모형을 나타냈다. 본 연구를 통해 인산염의 구배에 따른 pH, 이온, EC의 변량에 대하여 pH 변량 모형이 구명되었다.

This study was conducted to compare the hemostatic efficacy of three ferric subsulfate- and chitosan-based styptics as a powder and a gel containing ferric subsulfate and chitosan (FSC-PO and FSC-G, respectively) and a soaked pad containing ferric subsulfate and lidocaine (FSL-SP) using a rat tail bleeding model. The cytotoxicity of the styptics against L-929 mouse fibroblasts was also evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 assay. Four groups of 10 rats each were assigned to the three different styptics and a non-treated control groups. Rat tail tips were transected, after which styptics were applied with pressure. The wounds were observed for hemostasis for 3 min, then irrigated with saline to check for recurrent hemorrhage. L-929 mouse fibroblasts were exposed to extracts of the styptics (100 mg/mL) and their dilutions (1:10, 1:100, and 1:1,000). FSC-PO and FSC-G more effectively controlled initial hemorrhage than FSL-SP (p = 0.033). Additionally, FSC-PO and FSC-G more effectively maintained hemostasis than the control group (p = 0.02 and p < 0.01, respectively). However, all styptics showed enhanced cytotoxicity against L-929 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, although FSC-PO and FSC-G would be recommended to control hemorrhage, the benefits of styptics must be balanced against the clinical significance of their cytotoxicity.

For cuboid and ellipsoid crystallites of LiFePO₄ powders, by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and microscopic (TEM) studies, it is possible to determine the anisotropic parameters of the crystallite size distribution functions. These parameters were used to describe the cathode rate capability within the model of averaging the diffusion coefficient D over the length of the crystallite columns along the [010] direction. A LiFePO₄ powder was chosen for testing the developed model, consisting of big cuboid and small ellipsoid crystallites (close to them). When analyzing the parts of big and small rate capabilities, the fitting values D = 2.1 and 0.3 nm²/s were obtained for cuboids and ellipsoids, respectively. When analyzing the results of cyclic voltammetry using the Randles-Sevcik equation and the total area of projections of electrode crystallites on their (010) plane, slightly different values were obtained, D = 0.9 ± 0.15 and 0.5 ± 0.15 nm²/s, respectively. We believe that these inconsistencies can be considered quite acceptable, since both methods of determining D have obvious sources of error. However, the developed method has a clearly lower systematic error due to the ability to actually take into account the shape and statistics of crystallites, and it is also useful for improving the accuracy of the Randles-Sevcik equation. It has also been demonstrated that the shape engineering of crystallites, among other tasks, can increase the cathode capacity by 15% by increasing their size correlation coefficients.

Background: The porion (Po) is used to construct the Frankfort horizontal (FH) plane for cephalometrics, and the external auditory meatus (EAM) is to transfer and mount the dental model with facebow. The classical assumption is that EAM represents Po by the parallel positioning. However, we are sometimes questioning about the possible positional disparity between Po and EAM, when the occlusal cant or facial midline is different from our clinical understandings. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the positional parallelism of Po and EAM in facial asymmetries, and also to investigate their relationship with the maxillary occlusal cant. Methods: The 67 subjects were classified into three groups. Group I had normal subjects with facial symmetry ($1.05{\pm}0.52mm$ of average chin deviation) with minimal occlusal cant (<1.5 mm). Asymmetry group II-A had no maxillary occlusal cant (average $0.60{\pm}0.36$), while asymmetry group II-B had occlusal cant (average $3.72{\pm}1.47$). The distances of bilateral Po, EAM, and mesiobuccal cusp tips of the maxillary first molars (Mx) from the horizontal orbital plane (Orb) and the coronal plane were measured on the three-dimensional computed tomographic images. Their right and left side distance discrepancies were calculated and statistically compared. Results: EAM was located 10.3 mm below and 2.3 mm anterior to Po in group I. The vertical distances from Po to EAM of both sides were significantly different in group II-B (p=0.001), while other groups were not. Interside discrepancy of the vertical distances from EAM to Mx in group II-B also showed the significant differences, as compared with those from Po to Mx and from Orb to Mx. Conclusions: The subjects with facial asymmetry and prominent maxillary occlusal cant tend to have the symmetric position of Po but asymmetric EAM. Some caution or other measures will be helpful for them to be used during the clinical procedures.

고체전지, 산화물연료전지, 센서, 산화물 분리막 등 에너지 재료로 활용이 무궁한 산소 이온 전도체 중 acceptor가 첨가된 $LaAlO_3$의 전기적 특성과 고온에서의 혼합전도체로 사용 가능성을 연구하였다. Sr과 Mg을 $LaAlO_3$에 동시에 첨가하여 만든 LSAM의 전기적 특성을 교류(a.c.)와 직류(d.c.) 방법을 이용하여 다양한 산소 분압에서 측정하였다. 교류 임피던스 방법을 이용하여 LSAM의 전체 저항에서 입자(grain) 저항과 입계(grain boundary) 저항을 분리한 결과, $550^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도에서는 입계 저항이 지배적이나 $800^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 입자 저항이 대부분임을 알 수 있었다. 또 산소분압에 따른 전도도 측정을 물질의 결함모델(defect model)을 이용하여 분석해 전체 전도도를 이온 전도도와 전자 전도도로 분리하였다. 그 결과, $800^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서 LSAM은 낮은 산소분압($Po_2$ < $10^{-10}atm$)에서는 산소이온 전도체이고 높은 산소분압($Po_2$ > $10^{-5}atm$)에서는 혼합전도체의 거동을 보였다. 또 온도가 증가하여도 산소이온 전도가 주도적인 산소분압의 영역은 줄어들지 않았고 낮은 산소분압에서도 안정적인 전기적 특성을 보이는 등으로 보아, LSAM은 고온의 낮은 산소분압(T > $1500^{\circ}C$, $Po_2$ < $10^{-10}atm$) 조건에서 용강에서의 산소이온센서와 같은 산소이온체로의 사용 가능성이 높다.

Phosphate absorption from a Na2H32PO4 solution by Oryza sativa L. was studied in order to elucidate kinetic mechanisms of ion transport. The rates of phosphate absorption from different concentraitons indicated the presence of dual mechanisms in root tips, one in the low (1$\times$10-6 to 8$\times$10-5M) and the other in the high (1$\times$10-4 to 8$\times$10-3M). A phosphate compensation point of phosphate transport was revealed with a 1$\times$10-6M solution of Na2H32PO4. The kinetic model that ion transport involves an exchange reaction of absorption and desorptin is prosposed as follows: where C represents an ionic-specific organic carrier in the membrane; M, Mo and Mi are the mineral ions, M-outside and M-inside; MC is a carrier-ion complex; and the K's represent rate constants. In this model, the Mi velocity, v, is given by: {{{{v= {dMi} over {dt}= {(K1K3Mo-K2K4Mi) Ct} over {(K2＋K3)＋K1Mo＋K4Mi} }} where Ct is equal to C＋MC, and t is time.

From the unprecedented 2011 spring flood, the residens reside by Lake Champlain and Richelieu River encountered enormous damages. The International Joint Committee (IJC) released the Lake Champlain-Richelieu River (LCRR) Plan of Study (PoS). One of the major tasks for the PoS is to investigate the possible scenarios that might happen in the LCRR basin based on the stochastic simulation of the Net Basin Supplies that calculates the amount of flow into the lake and the river. Therefore, the current study proposed a novel apporach that simulate the annual NBS teleconnecting the climate index. The proposed model employed the bivariate empirical decomposition to contamporaneously model the long-term evolution of nonstationary oscillation embeded in the annual NBS and the climate signal (here, Artic Oscillation: AO). In order to represent the variational behavior of NBS correlation structure along with the temporal revolution of the climate index, a new nonstationary parameterization concept is proposed. The results indicate that the proposed model is superior performance in preserving long and short temporal correlation. It can even preserve the hurst coefficient better than any other tested models.
