  • In our previous reports [1-3], electron transport for the switching and memory devices using alkyl thiol-tethered Ru-terpyridine complex compounds with metal-insulator-metal crossbar structure has been presented. On the other hand, among organic memory devices, a memory based on the OFET is attractive because of its nondestructive readout and single transistor applications. Several attempts at nonvolatile organic memories involve electrets, which are chargeable dielectrics. However, these devices still do not sufficiently satisfy the criteria demanded in order to compete with other types of memory devices, and the electrets are generally limited to polymer materials. Until now, there is no report on nonvolatile organic electrets using nano-interfaced organic monomer layer as a dielectric material even though the use of organic monomer materials become important for the development of molecularly interfaced memory and logic elements. Furthermore, to increase a retention time for the nonvolatile organic memory device as well as to understand an intrinsic memory property, a molecular design of the organic materials is also getting important issue. In this presentation, we report on the OFET memory device built on a silicon wafer and based on films of pentacene and a SiO2 gate insulator that are separated by organic molecules which act as a gate dielectric. We proposed push-pull organic molecules (PPOM) containing triarylamine asan electron donating group (EDG), thiophene as a spacer, and malononitrile as an electron withdrawing group (EWG). The PPOM were designed to control charge transport by differences of the dihedral angles induced by a steric hindrance effect of side chainswithin the molecules. Therefore, we expect that these PPOM with potential energy barrier can save the charges which are transported to the nano-interface between the semiconductor and organic molecules used as the dielectrics. Finally, we also expect that the charges can be contributed to the memory capacity of the memory OFET device.[4]

  • Purpose: To describe the clinical characteristics of celiac disease (CD) among Saudi children and to determine the adherence rate to gluten free diet (GFD) and its determinant factors among them. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, in which all the families registered in the Saudi Celiac Patients Support Group were sent an online survey. Only families with children 18 years of age and younger with biopsy-confirmed CD were included. Results: The median age of the 113 included children was 9.9 years, the median age at symptom onset was 5.5 years and the median age at diagnosis was 7 years, the median time between the presentation and the final diagnosis was 1 year. Sixty two of the involved children were females. Ninety two percent of the patients were symptomatic at the diagnosis while eight percent were asymptomatic. The commonest presenting symptoms included: chronic abdominal pain (59.3%), poor weight gain (54%), abdominal distention, gases, bloating (46.1%) and chronic diarrhea (41.6%). Sixty percent of the involved children were reported to be strictly adherent to GFD. Younger age at diagnosis and shorter duration since the diagnosis were associated with a better adherence rate. Conclusion: CD has similar clinical presentations among Saudi children compared to other parts of the ward; however, the adherence to GFD is relatively poor. Younger age at diagnosis and shorter duration since the diagnosis were associated with a better adherence rate.

  • Interests in the field of rapid methods and automation in microbiology have been growing steadily on an international scale in recent years. International meetings concerned this problem have been held in elsewhere in the world countries since the past twenty years. But, unfortunately in the field of microbial examination in food hygiene, this problem have not yet been developed so much as in the field of clinical microbiology. Today, I would like to introduce you here present aspects of rapid and automation technologies, those which are manly carrying in milk and meats industries. My illustration will be given recent improved technologies using automatic apparatus and instruments along with process of microbial count procedure. Recent direct microbiological counting system (ChemeScan \ulcorner) as real time ultrasensitive analysis created by Cheminex Ltd., France is now most evolutional instrument to provide direct microbial counts, down to one cell, within 30 minutes. The results from these evaluations how a good correlation between the ChemScan system and the standard plate count method. This system will be successful application for not only in the field of pharmacology but also food microbiology. In addition, current identification of microbes by sophisticated instruments suitable for food microbiology, one of which Biology is manual system (BIOLOG\ulcorner), provides reference-level capability at a modes price. For the manual system, the color reactions in the microplate are read by eye and manually keyed into personal computer. Species identification appears on the computer screen within seconds, along with biotype patterns, a list of closely related species, and other useful statistics. In present this is useful application for microbial ecology and epidemiological survey. RiboPrinter system newly produced by DuPont is now focusing among microbiologists in the world, and is one of the biggest microbial characterization system using a DNA-based approach. The technology analyzer is bacterial culture for its genetic fingerprint or riboprint pattern. Finally Bio-cellTracer system for automatic measurement of fungal growth and Fukitori-Maseter, a Surface Hygiene Monitoring Kit by using swabe procedure in food processing environment are briefly illustrated in this presentation.

  • 최근 다양한 센서를 내장한 스마트폰의 발달로 인해 웨어러블 기기를 사용한 동작 인식 연구가 늘어나는 추세이다. 기존의 동작 인식 연구는 사용자 개인의 동작 인식에만 국한되어 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 인간의 집단 개념동작을 인식하는 기법을 제안한다. 인식에 앞서 장소 별 집단 동작의 특징을 분석하여 데이터를 생성한다. 강의실 환경에서의 집단 개념동작을 중점적으로 수업하기, 발표하기, 회의하기로 세 가지 동작을 연구한다. 본 연구에서 제안한 알고리즘을 적용하여 96% 이상의 높은 인식률을 도출하였다. 실시간으로 활용한다면 자동적으로 강의실의 사용률 및 사용 목적을 쉽게 분석할 수 있다. 나아가 분석된 데이터를 통해 장소 활용도를 높일 수 있다. 향후 다른 장소에 대한 집단 동작 인식을 연구하여 집단 동작 인식 시스템을 개발할 것이다.

  • 상태 궤환 제어기 설계에 있어서 상태 정보에 대한 접근의 제한성 때문에, 출력 궤환 제어기 설계에 대한 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고 최적의 출력 궤한 제어기 설계는 여전히 풀리지 않은 문제로 남아 있다. 따라서, 기존에 수행되었던 관련한 다양한 고정형 출력 궤한 제어기 설계 연구 결과를 리뷰하고 복잡도와 안정성 관점에서 성능을 평가 비교함으로써 이 분야의 연구의 방향을 찾고자 한다. 또한, 기존 연구에서 제한적인 시스템 구성에서 제시되었던 알고리즘들을 어떤 시스템 구성에서도 적용가능할 수 있도록 리뷰하는 알고리즘을 완벽하게 제공한다. 리뷰하는 알고리즘은 모의 실험을 통해서 안정성 성능과 연산 시간으로 측정된 복잡도를 통하여 비교 평가한다. 모의실험 결과에 따르면, 대수에 의한 제어기 설계 알고리즘[20]이 가장 적은 복잡도를 가지는 반면에 스케링 변환 기반의 선형 행렬 부등식 알고리즘[18]이 대부분의 경우에 고복잡도를 가지고 가장 좋은 성능을 갖음을 확인하였다.

  • Objective : The tethered cord syndrome results in progressive neurological deficits. Although it may remain controversial, many physicians recommend definitive surgery to untether the cord as soon as this condition is identified. We retrospectively evaluate the pre-operative and post-operative course of 38 tethered cord patients with spinal dysraphism in an attempt to learn the natural history of the disease and to determine the effectiveness of the surgical treatment. Methods : The medical records, operation notes and radiographs were evaluated. The follow up period ranged from 4 months to 12 years with a mean follow-up of 28.6 months. Twenty-seven patients were younger than 15 years of age. Results : At presentation, 26 of the patients were asymptomatic. In three of 11 adult symptomatic patients, their neurological deficits worsened after trauma or exercise. Improvement of motor strength was documented in two out of 5 patients. Five of nine patients with bladder symptoms improved, however, none had a complete return of their bladder function. Conclusion : Childhood patients were less symptomatic than the adult patients. Adult patients showed progression of their symptoms that were not improved even after the operation in most of the cases. Asymptomatic tethered spinal cord can be symptomatic as time passes by and even at an old age. Future research should be focused on the operative methods to prevent the delayed deterioration after surgery, rather than on the usefulness of preventive surgery in asymptomatic patients.

  • 이론적으로 분산 비동기 통신 환경에서 공통믿음 또는 공통지식의 형성은 불가능하다고 받아들여져 왔으나, 서로 신뢰하는 에이전트 그룹에서는 비동기 통신을 사용하더라도 데드라인이 있는 명제들은 공통믿음이 될 수 있고 이를 바탕으로 한 추론이 가능함을 보여준다. 일반적으로 멀티에이전트 환경에서 공통믿음의 형성은 통신의 문제로 접근하며 통신 시간의 제약이 없는 시스템 상에서는 공통믿음이 형성되지 않는다는 공통믿음 역설 문제를 느슨한 정밀도를 적용하고 필요한 요구조건을 완화시켜 공통믿음을 형성 할 수 있음을 카카오톡 채팅방 모델을 통해 확인한다. 또한 카카오톡 채팅방 모델의 각 에이전트에 추론 기능을 구현하여 생성된 공통믿음을 알고 있는지에 관한 질의를 통해 공통믿음임을 확인하는 추론 기능을 실험하였다. 분산 멀티에이전트 환경에서 공통믿음의 표현과 추론을 메타논리 프로그래밍으로 형식화하였으며, 카카오톡 채팅방 모델을 통해 비동기 통신을 사용하는 분산 에이전트 그룹이 공통믿음을 형성할 수 있음을 실험적으로 보였다.

  • 한 유역에서 유출 모형의 성공을 좌우할 수 있는 중요한 요소 중 하나는 강수 손실량(precipitation loss)을 결정하는 것이다. 손실량은 홍수 예측이나 수자원 평가를 위한 유출 모형의 주요 입력 자료가 된다. 만족할 만한 유출 모형을 구현하기 위해서는 손실량의 정확한 평가가 요구된다(Najafi, 2003). 총 강우량 중에서 손실량을 뺀 초과 강우량 또는 유효 강우량은 치수적 측면이든 이수적 측면에서 요구되는 직접 유출량(direct runoffs)에 상당하는 규모로서 유출 모형에서 매우 중요하다. 이제까지 많은 경우에 직접 유출되는 유효 강수량은 총강수량에서 주요 손실량 성분인 침투량을 감하여 산출하여 왔다. 이 때 침투량은 호우사상별로 적게는 유출량의 30%에서 많게는 100%까지 차지할 만큼 주요한 손실 성분으로 취급되었다(Chow, 1964 ; Singh, 1989). 침투량을 산정하기 위한 기존 모형내 포함되는 매개변수 값은 실용적으로 잘 정립되지 않았기 때문에 유출 모형에 실제 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 한편 침투량 산정 모형 중에 Horton 모형은 가장 잘 알려져 있는 모형 중 하나이다(Horton, 1939 ; 1940). 후속 성과(Blake et al., 1968; Rawls et al., 1976)은 있었지만 모형내 매개변수 값을 결정해야 하는 실용상의 어려운 점이 있다(Singh, 1989). 그리고 국내 초과 강수량 산출 모형에 관한 연구사례가 다수(조홍제,1986; 남선우와 최은호, 1990; 정성원과 김승, 1991; 안태진 등, 2000; 박햇님과 조원철, 2002; 유주환, 2006) 있었지만 시간적으로 연속함수를 갖는 Horton 침투 모형을 실무적으로 이산화 하여 적용할 수 있도록 하는 방법의 절차 및 원칙이 제시되지 않아 유출 모형에 직접 적용하기 쉽지 않은 형편이다. 이에 본 발표에서는 한 유역에서 Horton 매개변수를 결정한 기존 연구(2006, 유주환)의 성과를 적용한 Horton 침투모형을 강수사상별 이산화한 시간별로 적용하는 절차와 적용 원칙을 소개하고자 한다.

  • We have been measuring $CH_4$ flux in a rice paddy in Gimje using the eddy covariance method since July 2011. In order to measure the fast fluctuations of $CH_4$ concentration, an innovative LI-7700 open-path laser spectrometer is used. This high-precision, low power, light weight, low maintenance sensor enables us to operate it on a continuous and long-term basis. One particular feature, among other things, is the self-cleaning lower mirror which decreases maintenance requirements while ensuring more robust, continuous, high-quality dataset. Its cleaning is initiated at user-specified time intervals or a signal strength threshold, and its status is recorded as a diagnostic index. We have noticed that the operation of LI-7700 at Gimje site is quite challenging particularly due to its frequent mirror cleaning requirement and the associated sensitivity of the instrument. In this presentation, we present some field observation data regarding the mirror cleaning and their analysis, thereby suggesting the pertinent operation options for high-quality, maximum data retrieval in the field.

  • Background: Fibula free flap mandible reconstruction is the standard procedure after wide resection of the mandible. Establishment and maintenance of normal occlusion are important in mandible reconstruction both intraoperatively and after surgery. However, scar formation on the surgical site can cause severe fibrosis and atrophy of soft tissue in the head and neck region. Case presentation: Here, we report a case of severe soft tissue atrophy that appeared along with scar formation after mandibular reconstruction through the fibular free flap procedure. This led to normal occlusion collapse after it was established, and the midline of the mandible became severely deviated to the affected side that was replaced with the fibula free flap, leading to facial asymmetry. We corrected the malocclusion with a secondary operation: a sagittal split ramus osteotomy on the unaffected side and a sliding osteotomy on the previous fibula graft. After a healing time of 3 months, implants were placed on the fibula graft for additional occlusal stability. Conclusion: We report satisfactory results from the correction of malocclusion after fibula reconstruction using sliding fibula osteotomy and sagittal split ramus osteotomy. The midline of the mandible returned to its original position and the degree of facial asymmetry was reduced. The implants reduced difficulties that the patient experienced with masticatory function.
