Even though high NA, Hyper SIL system easily decline the optical performance even a little alignment error. Not only to overcome this instability but to maintain the high NA gain, we suggest a new system (Optimum SIL) which is a combination of each advantage of Hyper SIL and Hemi SIL. Simulation results shows that Optimum SIL system has much higher tolerance to various performance-lowering factors than Hyper SIL system even with a relatively small NA resignation.

Segniliparus species is a novel genus that is reported to be the new emerging respiratory pathogens. Here, we report a very rare case of S. rugosus pulmonary infection in an immunocompetent patient with non-cystic fibrosis. The organism was identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The patient was successfully treated with antibiotics.

Silk fabric was sputter-treated with Au, Cu, SUS, and Ti using poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as a binder, and its changes in color, antielectrostatic property, airpermearbility, and rubbing fastness were investigated. Sputter-treated silk fabric had a natural color of metal target, which was deepened by treatment of PVA solution. The rubbing fastness of thin metal layer formed by sputtering was improved by PVA treatment. Au had highest rubbing fastness among the metal targets. In addition, PVA treatment posterior to sputtering resulted In higher rubbing fastness than the other treatment method. However, a reverse trend was found in antielectrostatic property. Air permeability of the sputter-treated silk fabric was improved by PVA treatment, which was highest when sputtering was conducted prior to PVA treatment.

Side-polished single-mode fiber covered with a thick planar-glass-waveguide is studied as a polarization-insensitive fiber-optic refractometer The properties of the device are very sensitive to the index variation of an upper cladding on top of the overlay waveguide. We investigate the spectral response, the polarization properties, and the relationship between the shift in coupling wavelength and the index variation of an upper cladding layer Index resolutions of the order of 10-4 have been achieved.

The benzoxathiol LYR-71 compound was discovered as an inhibitor of NF-kB transcriptional activity with an IC50 value of 5.4 uM. Furthermore, benzoxathiol LYR-71 compound inhibited the NF-kB binding activity to DNA in a dose-dependent manner, which was identified by EMSA with oligonucleotide corresponding to NF-kB consensus sequence. It is well known that NF-kB is an important transcription factor to regulate the expression of inflammatory enzymes (iNOS and COX-2) and cytokines (TNF, IL-1 and IL-6). (omitted)

Nitric oxide (NO) is known to work as an important signaling molecule involved in regulating a wide range of biological activities in the neuronal, vascular, and immune system. NO and its metabolites mediate a number of host defence functions and are also implicated in the pathogenesis of tissue damage associated with inflammation. Cyclohexylimminobenzoxathiol LYR-64 compound inhibited LPS-induced NO production in murine macrophages Raw264.7 with an IC50 value of 0.7 uM with 95.9% inhibition at 3 uM, 63.5% at 1 uM and 30.2% at 1 uM.

최근 클라우드 컴퓨팅 기반의 IT 서비스가 증가하면서 기업들 사이에 SLA가 중요한 화두로 대두되고 있다. 상업용 SLA 관리 툴들은 어플리케이션 또는 데이터베이스 계층에 계약관련 로직을 내장하고 있다. SLA 규칙들이 구현 로직 내에 암시적으로 표현되어 있어서 유지보수가 어렵고 계약사항을 공유하는 데 많은 어려움이 따른다. 따라서 오늘날과 같은 서비스 지향 아키텍처, 온 디맨드, 유틸리티컴퓨팅, 클라우드 컴퓨팅 환경에서는 전체 서비스를 자동 관리할 수 있는 기술에 대한 연구가 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 능동문서기반의 ASLM(Active Service Level Management)과 유럽에서 진행 중인 SLA@SOI 프로젝트의 계약서 작성 및 실행에 대한 구현 방법을 비교하였다. 비교결과 유지보수성과 자동화 측면을 고려할 때 계약 규칙 로직을 어플리케이션 로직과 분리한 ASLM의 구현방법이 SLA@SOI 보다 SLA 계약처리 업무에 적합함을 알 수 있었다.

Halitosis is defined as a nasty odor emanating through the mouth and is primarily related to the enhanced concentration of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs). VSC measurements have been commonly used for experimental comparison and clinical diagnosis. As quantitative methods for comparative analyses of oral malodor, gas chromatography devices have been most commonly used to quickly and easily determine the concentration of several gas components of VSCs, which are agents primarily responsible for halitosis. The concentrations of VSCs fluctuate dynamically depending on contributing factors, including various oral/systemic conditions, intake of medicine and food/drink, oral hygiene, and even routine daily activities. Therefore, the exact analysis of VSCs requires the appropriate standardization of not only exact measurement techniques but also participant conditioning with scientific considerations. Thus, this paper describes the experimental standardizations commonly recommended in previous literature and their scientific background.

Steel bearing balls are important component in machines having moving parts. In this paper we describe a vision-based automatic inspection system designed for sensing defects on the surface of steel bearing balls. The system has a camera looking down over a rail on which balls roll. Two mirrors are installed at both sides of the rail so that the side parts of a ball can be well inspected. The entire ball surface can be sufficiently seen by taking three images at $120^{\circ}$ rotation interval. Defects are detected by thresholding the difference image between an image captured and the reference image of a good ball.

Radio Frequency IDentification(RFID) 시스템은 리더와 태그로 구성되어 리더에서 태그로 신호를 전송하여 태그로부터 원하는 정보를 얻는 시스템이다. 이 시스템에서 리더와 태그가 통신을 할 때 근접한 거리에 있는 리더들이 동일한 주파수를 이용하거나, 여러 리더가 동시에 하나의 태그에 명령을 전송하는 경우 서로 간섭을 일으켜 RFID 리더 충돌이 발생하는데, 본 논문에서는 이 충돌을 방지하기 위한 셀 분할 기법과 셀 내의 충돌 문제를 해결하기 위한 CCA 기법을 소개한다. 또한 CCA 기법의 성능 개선을 위한 Beacon 채널 CCA 방식을 제안한다.
