Recent vehicles are using car internal network for various purposes such as vehicle control, diagnostic functions, and ECU program upgrade. Currently CAN and FlexRay are the most representative networks. In the next-generation network, the use of CAN FD and car ethernet is actively studied. In this paper, we aimed to compare and evaluate the diagnostic function and the program of the ECU from the upgrade view on characteristics related to download time for each network when CAN, CAN FD, and FlexRay network are applied. As a result of the simulation, it was possible to determine that the CAN FD network is currently the most suitable for the next-generation network by suppressing other networks in terms of cost performance even under conditions of 500 Kbps and 2 Mbps which are practically usable speeds.

반도체, 디스플레이, PC 등 전자기기의 경우 소자 내 발생된 열로 인해 기기의 성능 및 효율, 수명 등이 감소하기 때문에 이러한 내부 열을 외부로 방출시켜줄 필요가 있다. 일반적으로 heat pipe나 냉각 팬(fan) 등의 외부장치에 의해 강제적으로 냉각해주는 기술이 있지만 휴대용 디바이스와 같이 작은 전자기기의 경우 소자 자체적으로 열전도 특성이 뛰어난 기판을 사용하여 열전도에 의해 열이 소자 밖으로 방출될 수 있도록 방열 설계를 해주어야 한다. 따라서 소자 전체를 지지해주고 열전도에 의해 방열 기능을 해주는 방열기판에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 현재 가장 많이 사용되어지는 세라믹 방열기판으로는 알루미나가 있지만 보다 소자의 집적화와 고성능화로 인하여 열전도도가 높은 질화규소 기판의 요구가 증대되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 질화규소기판에 금속전극을 형성하는 기술은 종래의 알루미나 기판에 이용한 DPC(Direct Plated Copper), DBC(Direct Bonded Copper)기술을 적용할 수 없다. 그래서 현재는 메탈블레이징을 이용하여 전극을 형성하지만 공정비용 및 대형기판에 형성이 어려운 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 질화규소 방열기판에 전기화학공정을 통하여 밀착력이 우수한 금속 전극 회로층 형성에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 질화규소 방열기판에 무전해 Ni 도금을 통하여 금속층을 형성하는데 이 때 세라믹 기판과 금속층 사이의 낮은 밀착력을 향상시키기 위해 습식공정을 통하여 표면처리를 진행하였다. 또한 촉매층을 $Pd-TiO_2$ 층을 이용하여 무전해 도금공정을 이용하여 Ni, 전극층을 형성하였다. 질화규소 표면에 OH기 형성을 확인하기 위해 FT-IR(Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy)분석을 실시하였으며 OH 그룹 형성 및 silane의 화학적 결합으로 인해 금속 전극층의 밀착력이 향상된 것을 cross hatch test 및 scratch test를 통해 확인하였고 계면 및 표면형상 특성 등을 분석하기 위해 TEM(Transmission electron microscopy), SEM(Scanning electron microscopy), AFM(Atomic-force microscopy)등의 장비를 이용하였다.

Masan Bay is infamous for its severe eutrophication, exemplified by frequent red tide incidences and anoxic conditions. We carried out daily observations for 16 days at one site immediately after the summer rainy season in 1988 on the basis that shorter observation intervals be necessary to observe a process with high turnover rate. in spite of the relatively short survey period, we could observe dramatic changes in abundance and composition of the phytoplankton populations. Cell densities and chlorophyll concentrations changed in the magnitude of 70 and 10 times, respectively, Skeletonema costatum, a diatom species, dominated the first peak of phytoplankton biomass and was followed by Prorocentrum minimum, a dinoflagellate species, which occurred dominantly in the second peak after about a week, form the viewpoint of time scale, we suggest that at least a weekly sampling might be appropriate in complex coastal environments as Masan Bay. While stratification enabled high production in the surface layer, it hindered the transport of silicate from bottom to the surface, which in turn limited the prolonged growth of diatoms. Ensued second peaks of silicate and diatom abundance in the surface layer suggest periodic flux of silicate from bottom across the discontinuity driven by tidal currents.

Purpose: Changes of degenerative disc have been analyzed or with the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to assign appropriate meaning, and the relationship between the degenerative changes of the discs and its living function has been evaluated through the living function evaluation scores collected by functional rating index. Methods: in April, 2006, a physical examination was conducted for physical laborers to be employed as on-site laborer in a steel industrial complex located at a region. A month later, these 20 laborers who participated in lumbar vertebra MRI tests have been investigated for one-to-one mobile phone functional rating index test. Excluding 3 of 14 respondents whom scored 0 in functional rating index, the rest of respondents' degenerative disc grade changes shown in MRI and its relationship to living functional rating index have been performed. Results: The Dabbs method of measuring disc height resulted to show significant increase as the disc height changes from L1-2 level to L5-S1 level (p<0.01). However, there was no statistical significance with a relationship between disc height and functional rating index, and disc height average. The Magnetic Resonance Imaging analysis regard on the degree of disc degeneration and its relationship to living functional rating proved to have significant relationship (p<0.05). Conclusion: The degenerative changes monitored by Magnetic Resonance Imaging show significant relationship (p<0.05) to living function. However, this relationship could vary depend upon the characteristics of study population. So, it suggested that the future studies should be performed by considering population's age and job career.

Ursolic acid, triterpenoid compound has been shown to stimulate osteoblast differentiation and enhance bone formation. In the present study, we examined the effects of similar triterpenoid compounds, oleanolic acid (OA) and its derivatives, such as oleanolic acid acetate (OAA) and oleanolic acetate methyl ester (OAM) on the bone formation in MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cells. We determined cellular proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization, and expression of osteoblast specific genes and mitogen activated protein kinase phosphorylation. Treatment of $0.1-10{\mu}m$ OA, OAA, and OAM increased cellular proliferation, but not significantly increased as compared with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). OA, OAA, and OAM at 5uM concentration enhanced ALP expression, mineralization, and osteocalcin (OCN) mRNA level. In conclusion, OA and its derivatives stimulated the osteoblast differentiation by increasing ALP, mineralization, and OCN mRNA expression. However, there were no significantly difference on osteoblast differentiation among treatment of OA, OAA, and OAM.

It is a well-known clinical fact that contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography exaggerates vertebral arterial ostial stenosis and sometimes shows pseudostenosis. Considering the clinical significance of a lesion in the posterior circulation ischemia, the importance of an accurate imaging diagnosis of ostial stenosis should not be underestimated. We were able to differentiate pseudo stenosis of the ostium from true stenosis using thin-slab maximum-intensity-projection(MIP) images which are thought to be helpful for minimizing standard full thickness MIP images.

This study investigated protein changes in soymilk and whole soymilk due to enzymatic hydrolysis. The total free amino acid contents of low molecular weight soymilk (LSM) and low molecular weight whole soymilk (LWSM) were higher than soymilk (SM) and whole soymilk (WSM). The essential amino acid content was similar in SM and LSM, but was higher in LWSM than WSM. In SDS-PAGE performed to tendency of becoming low molecules, the soy protein molecular weights were 3372 kDa for SM and WSM, but 17 kDa or less for LSM and LWSM. Also, high molecular weight protein spots were evident in 2-D electrophoresis of SM and LSM, but only low molecular weight protein spots of various sizes were evident in WSM and LWSM. This suggests that the high molecular weight protein in SM and WSM is changed to low molecular weight protein by enzymatic hydrolysis. Further investigations of the separation and qualities of these proteins are required.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The obese population is rapidly increasing because of reduced physical activity and a Westernized diet; consequently, various chronic diseases are more prevalent. With the increasing interest in body shape and appearance, research on body shape perceptions and accompanying weight control behaviors are needed for healthy weight management. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on randomly selected 536 (209 men and 327 women) aged 20 to 65 years. Body mass index (BMI), body-shape perception, weight control behavior, quality of sleep, and place of residence were collected using self-reported questionnaires. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted using complex design in each groups. Collected data were analyzed using the SAS 9.4 statistical package, and the significance level was set at P < 0.05. RESULTS: When these two variables were divided into four groups, they were found to influence dieting attempts. People with abnormal weights who were dissatisfied with their body shapes attempted dieting 5.23 times more than those with healthy weights and satisfaction with their body shapes. Further, those with normal weights but dissatisfaction with their bodies attempted dieting 4.45 times more than those who were satisfied with their shapes. Subjects in their 20s attempted dieting 2.53 times more than those in their 30s and 40s, and female subjects attempted dieting 2.24 times more than male subjects. CONCLUSIONS: A correct perception of one's shape can be an important factor for dietary behavior, as body shape perceptions and dieting attempts are strongly related. Additionally, healthy weight management and nutrition education are important elements to incorporate into a weight control program aimed at preventing excessive weight control behaviors and promoting correct perceptions of body shape.

Based on SPICE (Software Process Improvement and Capability dEtermination) evaluation model, SPIRE (Software Process Improvement in Regions of Europe) is developed and published as a process improvement model for small and medium size organizations. However, practical selection guidelines or mapping rules between business goals and software processes do not exist within SPIRE. This research aims to construct an objective reference mapping table between business goals and software processes, and to propose a process selection method using the mapping table. The mapping table is constructed by the convergence of domestic software process experts' opinions using Delphi techniques. In the suggested process selection method, target processes are selected using the intuition of project participants or project managers as well as the reference mapping table. The feasibility of the proposed selection method has been reviewed by applying to two small software companies. Using the reference mapping table, we could select key processes which were passed over by project managers.
