Objectives: Through using of the strong research method like a Randomized Controlled Trial: RCT, we have to heighten quality of Medical Education study. I'd like to introduce "CONSORT", which stands for Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials. Contents: Preventive Service Task Force(200l) in USA proposed Levels of evidence for enlarging evidence-based Practice: EBP. And the CONSORT was introduced, which encompasses various initiatives developed by the CONSORT Group to alleviate the problems arising from inadequate reporting of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). the CONSORT has 13 guides like these: 1. How participants were allocated to interventions 2. Scientific background and explanation of rationale 3. Eligibility criteria for participants. The settings and locations where the data were collected. 4. Precise details of the interventions intended for each group and how and when they were actually administered 5. Specific objectives and hypotheses 6. Clearly defined primary and secondary outcome measures, When applicable. any methods to enhance the quality of measurements (e.g., multiple observations, training of assessors) 7. How sample size was determined. When applicable, explanation of any interim analyses and stopping rules 8. Method used to generate the random allocation sequence, Details of any restriction [of randomization] 9. Method used to implement the random allocation sequence 10. Who generated the allocation sequence, who enrolled participants. and who assigned participants to their groups 11. Whether or not participants, those administering the interventions, and those assessing the outcomes were blinded to group assignment. If done, how the success of blinding was evaluated 12. Statistical methods used to compare groups for primary outcome(s), Methods for additional analyses, such as subgroup analyses and adjusted analyses 13. Flow of participants through each stage (a diagram is strongly recommended) Specifically, for each group report the numbers of participants randomly assigned. receiving intended treatment, completing the study protocol. and analyzed for the primary outcome. Results and Conclusion: Randomized Controlled Trial: RCT guided of CONSORT will contribute to do stronger evidence-based medical studies.

A nuclear energy facility is one of the most critical facilities to be safely protected during and after operation because the physical destruction of its barriers by an external attack could release radioactivity into the environment and can cause harmful effects. The barrier walls of nuclear energy facilities should be sufficiently robust to protect essential facilities from external attack or sabotage. Physical protection system (PPS) vulnerability assessment of a typical small nuclear research reactor was carried out by simulating an external attack with a tri-nitro toluene (TNT) shaped charge and results are presented. The reinforced concrete (RC) barrier wall of the research reactor located at a distance of 50 m from a TNT-shaped charge was the target of external attack. For the purpose of the impact assessment of the RC barrier wall, a finite element method (FEM) is utilized to simulate the destruction condition. The study results showed that a hole-size of diameter 342 mm at the front side and 364 mm at the back side was created on the RC barrier wall as a result of a 143.35 kg TNT-shaped charge. This aperture would be large enough to let at least one person can pass through at a time. For the purpose of the PPS vulnerability assessment, an Estimate of Adversary Sequence Interruption (EASI) model was used, which enabled the determination of most vulnerable path to the target with a probability of interruption equal to 0.43. The study showed that the RC barrier wall is vulnerable to a TNT-shaped charge impact, which could in turn reduce the effectiveness of the PPS.

We present UBV CCD photomety of the metal-poor globular cluster M30. The data were obtained using the 40 inch telescope at Mt. Stromlo and Siding Spring Observatory (MSSSO). We used DAOPHOT CCD reduction package in order to obtain Color-Magnitude Diagram (CMD). We have derived some fundametal parameters of the globular cluster such as metal abundance ([Fe/H]), helium abundance (Y), and distance modulus (m-M) from the CMD. The derived parameters were [Fe/H]=-2.50, Y=0.28, and (m-M)=14.64. From the latter, the distance of 8.3kpc is obtained. Despite the photometric uncertainty near the main-sequence turnoff, we estimate the age of M30 to be 1.6${\pm}$3 Gyrs from the Revised Yale Isocyrones. If [O/Fe]=+0.4, this age will be reduced to 14.2${\pm}$3 Gyrs.

The objective of this paper is to study how to apply the functional models in the design reviews and the validation of the subsequent design specifications and standards in the urban rail transit standardization program. The functional models can be obtained based on the requirements. Specifically, the requirements are first represented by the use case and sequence diagrams and then the results are transformed into the functional models using the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) diagrams and the FFBD (Functional Flow Block Diagram) and others. Based on the results of the study, it can be checked whether the original requirements have been reflected properly in the designs. Also, it can be seen that how the possible changes in the requirements affect the functions and thus how the designs should be changed accordingly.

We present a study of the old open cluster Trumpler 5 (Tr 5), based on the CDS archival data. From the color-magnitude diagrams of Tr 5, we have found the positions of main-sequence turn-off (MSTO) and red giant clump (RGC) stars. Using the mean magnitude of the RGC stars, we have estimated the reddening toward Tr 5, E(B - V) = 0.60 $\pm$ 0.10. Using the stars common in two data sets and the theoretical isochrones of Padova group, we have estimated the distance modulus $V_o - M_v = 12.64 {\pm} 0.20 (d = 3.4 {\pm} 0.3 kpc)$, the metallicity [Fe/H) = -0.30 $\pm$ 0.10, and the age of 2.4 $\pm$ 0.2 Gyr (log t = 9.38). These metallicity and distance values are consistent with the relation between the metallicity and the Galactocentric distance of other old open clusters, for which we obtain the slope of ${\Delta}[Fe/H]/ R_{gc} = -0.064 {\pm} 0.010\;dex\;kpc^{-1}$.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are rapidly emerging because of their potential applications available in military and civilian environments. Due to unattended and hostile deployment environments, shared wireless links, and inherent resource constraints, providing high level security services is challenging in WSNs. In this paper, we revisit various security attack models and analyze them by using a well-known standard notation, Unified Modeling Language (UML). We provide a set of UML collaboration diagram and sequence diagrams of attack models witnessed in different network layers: physical, data/link, network, and transport. The proposed UML-based analysis not only can facilitate understanding of attack strategies, but can also provide a deep insight into designing/developing countermeasures in WSNs.

현재의 소프트웨어들은 그 요구사항이 늘어나고 규모 역시 커져서 여러 사람이 팀을 이루어 개발하는 것이 일반적이다. 이런 개발과정에서 서로 다른 개발자가 구현한 코드를 통합하는 것은 무척 어려운 일이며 이렇게 구현한 소프트웨어에 대한 명세를 작성하거나 분석하는 것 또한 많은 노력을 필요로 한다. 특히 ERP 어플리케이션과 같이 많은 수의 개발자들이 분산 환경에서 협력 작업을 통하여 프로그램을 개발하는 경우에 있어서는 개발자 상호간의 의견교환과 정보 공유는 물론, 서로 다른 개발자가 자신이 필요로 하는 코드를 찾아내고 분석하여 통합하는 일은 필수적이면서도 많은 시간과 노력을 요구한다. 따라서 견고한 어플리케이션을 위해서는 개발 도구가 이러한 요구사항들을 충분히 반영하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 컴포넌트 기술을 이용한 ERP 패키지 시스템인 SEA+의 개발 도구에 포함되어 있는, 분산 협력 개발시 요구되는 이와 같은 사항을 반영하여 설계 개발한 순차 다이어그램 편집기에 대하여 설명한다.

A large number of in-vitro experiments on the inhibition of kinases and pretenses are reported in literature, and compiled by ProLINT database. Using this powerful wealth of knowledge, we have carried our an analysis of ligand specificity of these two classes of proteins. Each of the pretenses and kinases included in the database has been assigned a consensus ligand fragment signature, based on the available information about its interaction with different ligands. A set of 43 fragments efficiently represent every ligand. We have then organized the consensus fragment signatures for every protein in form of a cluster-tree diagram. This tree is also constructed from other sequence, structure and physical considerations. Cluster-cluster comparison between these analyzes provide a valuable information about ligand specific interactions and similarities between proteins.

컴포넌트 기반 프로그램은 동시에 여러 컴포넌트간의 상호 협력에 의해서 동작한다. 여러 개의 컴포넌트 기반 프로그램을 기존의 순차적 분석 방법을 이용하여 컴포넌트의 동작을 분석해야 하기 때문에 시간이 많이 소요되고 매우 불편하다. 더욱이 컴포넌트의 수가 많아지면서 각 단계마다 각각의 컴포넌트의 동작을 모두 추적한다는 것은 매우 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 컴포넌트 기반으로 설계된 프로그램의 동작을 나타내는 시퀀스 다이어그램을 자동으로 생성할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 컴포넌트 기반 프로그램의 UML 시퀀스 다이어그램을 자동으로 생성하여 시각적으로 보여주어 개발의 편의성과 효율성을 증가시킨다.
