In recent days, trend technologies for cloud, bigdata, or mobile, as the important marketable keywords or paradigm in Information Communication Technology (ICT), are widely used and interrelated each other in the various types of platforms and web-based services. Especially, the combination of cloud and mobile is recognized as one of a profitable business models, holding benefits of their own. Despite these challenging aspects, there are a few application cases of this model dealing with geo-based data sets or imageries. Among many considering points for geo-based cloud application on mobile, this study focused on a performance test of mobile cloud of Bayesian image fusion algorithm with satellite images. Two kinds of cloud platform of Amazon and OpenStack were built for performance test by CPU time stamp. In fact, the scheme for performance test of mobile cloud is not established yet, so experiment conditions applied in this study are to check time stamp. As the result, it is revealed that performance in two platforms is almost same level. It is implied that open source mobile cloud services based on OpenStack are enough to apply further applications dealing with geo-based data sets.

Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) has greatly changed the parallel programming paradigm for transaction processing. Since Intel has recently proposed Transactional Synchronization Extension (TSX), a number of studies based on HTM have been conducted. However, the existing studies support conflict prediction for a single cause of the transaction processing and provide a standardized TSX environment for all workloads. To solve the problems, we propose an efficient hardware transactional memory scheme for processing transactions in multi-core in-memory environment. First, the proposed scheme determines whether to use Software Transactional Memory (STM) or the serial execution as a fallback path of HTM by using a prediction matrix to collect the information of previously executed transactions. Second, the proposed scheme performs efficient transaction processing according to the characteristic of a given workload by providing a retry policy based on machine learning algorithms. Finally, through the experimental performance evaluation using Stanford transactional applications for multi-processing (STAMP), the proposed scheme shows 10~20% better performance than the existing schemes.

In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm for non-streaming synchronized data processing based on ATSC-DASE in terrestrial digital data broadcasting services. Non-streaming synchronized data is encapsulated in DSM-CC sections with PTS(presentation time stamp) values associated with A/V and it is transmitted in a form of MPEG-2 TS(transport stream). At the receiver, the transmitted A/V data are processed by PC based set-top box(STB) in real-time, and the transmitted non-streaming synchronized data is also stored at the STB and is displayed at right time by the proposed algorithm. To verity the proper operation of the proposed algorithm, we make a scenario for non-streaming synchronized data by XML, and finally we are able to display it properly by using declarative application(DA) browser.

The aim of this study was to fabricate a submicro-and micro-patterned fibronectin coated wafer for a cell culture, which allows the positions and dimensions of the attached cells to be controlled. A replica molding was made into silicon via a photomask in quartz, using E-beam lithography, and then fabricated a polydimethylsiloxane stamp using the designed silicon mold. Hexadecanethiol $[HS(CH_2){_{15}}CH_3]$, adsorbed on the raised plateau of the surface of polydimethylsiloxane stamp, was contact-printed to form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of hexadecanethiolate on the surface of an Au-coated glass wafer. In order to form another SAM for control of the surface wafer properties, a hydrophilic hexa (ethylene glycol) terminated alkanethiol $[HS(CH_2){_{11}}(OCH_2CH_2){_6}OH]$ was also synthesized. The structural changes were confirmed using UV and $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopies. A SAM terminated in the hexa(ethylene glycol) groups was subsequently formed on the bare gold remaining on the surface of the Aucoated glass wafer. In order to aid the attachment of cells, fibronectin was adsorbed onto the resulting wafer, with the pattern formed on the gold-coated wafer confirmed using immunofluorescence staining against fibronectin. Fibronectin was adsorbed only onto the SAMs terminated in the methyl groups of the substrate. The hexa (ethylene glycol)-terminated regions resisted the adsorption of protein. Human dermal fibroblasts (P=4), obtained from newborn foreskin, only attached to the fibronectin-coated, methyl-terminated hydrophobic regions of the patterned SAMs. N-HDFs were more actively adhered, and spread in a pattern spacing below $14{\mu}m$, rather than above $17{\mu}m$, could easily migrate on the substrate containing spacing of $10{\mu}m$ or less between the strip lines.

Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells that are formed by the fusion of pre-fusion osteoclasts (pOCs). The fusion of pOCs is known to be important for osteoclastic bone resorption. Here, we examined the effect of IFN-${\gamma}$ on the fusion of pOCs. IFN-${\gamma}$ greatly increased the fusion of pOCs in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, IFN-${\gamma}$ induced pOC fusion even in hydroxyapatite-coated plates used as a substitute for bone. The resorption area of pOCs stimulated with IFN-${\gamma}$ was significantly higher than that of the control cells. IFN-${\gamma}$ induced the expression of dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP), which is responsible for the fusion of pOCs. IFN-${\gamma}$ enhanced DC-STAMP expression in a dose-dependent manner. The mRNA expression of c-Fos and nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) c1 was enhanced in the pOCs treated with IFN-${\gamma}$. Taken together, these results provide a new insight into the novel role of IFN-${\gamma}$ on the fusion of pOCs.

The noble method of hybrid agarose gel microstamp fabricated by replica molding against PDMS master to make bacteria patterns on agar surface was presented. After the fabricated hybrid agarose gel microstamp was inked with E. coli, we could obtain 2 dimensional bacterial arrays with $50{\mu}m$ circular spots. And the various shaped patterns based on experimental design were easily generated. The analysis of mean fluorescent signal was showed that bacterial pattern have high contrast between spots and background and homogeneity of pattern. Our proposed method solved the problem of wetting and handling with small soft agarose gel microstamp when bacteria were used for ink. The agarose gel stamp provides appropriate environment to inked bacteria, which is essential technology for cell patterning with high retaining viability during the patterning process. This method is reproducible, convenient, rapid, and could be applied to screening system, study of cell-surface interaction, and microbial ecology.

This paper proposes a method for reducing false conflicts in signature-based eager hardware transactional memory (HTM). The method tracks the information on all cache blocks that are accessed by a transaction. If the information provides evidence that there are no conflicts for a given transactional request from another core, the method prevents the occurrence of a false conflict by forcing the HTM to ignore the decision based on the signature. The method is very effective in reducing false conflicts and the associated unnecessary transaction stalls and aborts, and can be used to improve the performance of the multicore processor that implements the signature-based eager HTM. When running the STAMP benchmark on a 16-core processor that implements the LogTM-SE, the increased speed (decrease in execution time) achieved with the use of the method is 20.6% on average.

The tiled-display system provides a high resolution display which can be used in different applications in co-working area. The systems used in the co-working field usually save the user logs, and these log information not only makes the maintenance of the tiled-display system easier, but also can be used to check the progress of the co-working. There are three main steps in the proposed tiled display log recorder. The first step is to capture the screen shots of the tiles and send them for merging. The second step is to merge the captured tile images to form a single screen shot of the tiled-display. The final step is to encode the merged tile images to make a compressed video stream. This video stream could be stored for the logs of co-working or be streamed to remote users. Since there could be differences in capturing time of tile images, the quality of merged tiled-display could be degraded. This paper proposes a time stamp-based metric to evaluate the quality of the video stream, and a merging algorithm that could upgrade the quality of the video stream with respect to the proposed quality metrics.

Bovine lactoferrin is well known as biological activator in defense mechanism related some cells. In this study, we was investigated about the immune modulator as a role of lactoferrin through the transcriptional regulation of genes associated with hypersensitivity such as allergy, athma and inflammatory disease. Effects of inflammatory reaction of bovine lactoferrin was carried out by RT-PCR analysis from isolated total RNA treated with lactoferrin 0, 10, 50, 100, 500 ${\mu}g/mL$ and PMA 100 ng/mL. The expression of the TYROBP, PITPNA, IL-10, SLP1, DC-stamp and ICAM-1 mRNA were increased by synergy effect of bovine lactoferrin and PMA. The results of RT-PCR showed that bovine lactoferrin and PMA had an effect of immune modulator by enhancement of TYROBP, PITPNA, SLP1, DC-stamp, IL-10 and ICAM-1 gene transcription in U937, Mutz-3 and NK92 cells, respectively. Bovine lactoferrin showed a potential of biological function which could be used for industrial applications as a material of food and pharmaceutical.
