Purpose : The dose calculation program for the Buckler type remote after-loading system was developed. This program also can be used to calculate dose for various sealed sources. Materials and Methods : We determined the source length and distribution by dividing the program disk to 72 points. The dose rate for the each program disk and source was calculated. The dose rate table for the xy coordinate was established. The dose rate for the interesting points of the patient were calculated by using this table, We also made isodose curve from this calculations. Results : The storage size for the dose rate table were increased. But the calculation of the dose rate for the patient were carried out rapidly. So we could get real time calculation. Conclusion : By using this program, we could calculate the dose rate for the various points of the patient quickly and accurately. This program will be useful for the treatment with various linear sources.

This paper studies the support region of an optimum (minimum mean-squre error) fixed-rate scalar quantizer for a Weibull source. The support region is defined to be the interval determined by the outermost thresholds of a quantizer and plays an important role in its performance, and hence it motivates this study. The paper reports the following specific results. First, approximation formulas are derived for the outermost thresholds of optimum scalar quantizers for a Weibull distributions. Second, in the case of Rayleigh and exponential distributions the derived approximation formulas are compared for the evaluation of their accuracy with the true values of optimum quantizers. Numerical results show that the formula for the leftmost threshold stays within 1% of the true value for 128 and 256 quantization points or more, for Rayleigh and exponential distribution, respectively, while that for the rightmost threshold does so for 512 and 32 quantization points or more. These formulas exhibit increased accuracy with the number of quantization points. In conclusion, the formulas have high accuracy. The contribution of the paper consists in the derivation of closed accurate formulas for the support of optimum.

The accurate official map of air temperature does not exist for the Hawaiian Islands due to the limited number of weather stations on the rugged volcanic landscape. To alleviate the major problem of temperature mapping, satellite-measured land surface temperature (LST) data were used as an additional source of sample points. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) system provides hypertemperal LST data, and LST pixel values that were frequently observed (${\ge}$14 days during a 32-day composite period) had a strong, consistent correlation with air temperature. Systematic grid points with a spacing of 5km, 10km, and 20km were generated, and LST-derived air temperature estimates were extracted for each of the grid points and used as input to inverse distance weighted (IDW) and cokriging methods. Combining temperature data and digital elevation model (DEM), cokriging significantly improved interpolation accuracy compared to IDW. Although a cokriging method is useful when a primary variable is cross-correlated with elevation, interpolation accuracy was sensitively influenced by the seasonal variations of weather conditions. Since the spatial variations of local air temperature are more variable in the wet season than in the dry season, prediction errors were larger during the wet season than the dry season.

Efficient retrieval of image data is an important research issue in multimedia database. This paper proposes a new approach to a content-based image retrieval which allows queries to be composed of the local texture patterns and the slope components of contour points. The texture patterns extracted from the source image using the graylevel co-occurrence matrix and the slope components of contour points extracted from the binary image are converted into a internal feature representation of reduced dimensionality which preserves the perceptual similarity and those features can be used in creating efficient indexing structures for a content-based image retrieval. Experimental results of the image retrievalare presented to illustrate the usefulness of this approach that demonstrates the precision 82%, the recall 87% and the average rang 3.3 in content-based image data retrieval.

NVH engineering has become a hot issue due to radical technology changes and development in automotive industry since customers' expectations and needs for their vehicle is taken to a higher level. However, the source identification and quantification of the road noise within a vehicle is still not at the level where it needs to be to meet their expectations due to its' complex transfer path and difficulties in path optimization. The primary focus of this research is on direct force obtaining method at suspension hard points using suspension test rig. Directly obtained forces at suspension to body mounting points are critical and crucial for determining the effects of design changes of the suspension has on road noise performance. Direct force obtaining method has its limitation in sensor installation within an actual vehicle therefore, many has been indirectly calculating forces using full matrix inversion method or dynamic stiffness method. In this study, to circumvent this limitation, a suspension rig is used. Then, the suspension rig is verified through a comparative analysis of its dynamic behavior between the actual vehicle by cleat test on chassis dynamometer.

The using of compensator is required to adjust the irregular dose distribution due to irregular thickness of the body in Total Body Irradiation. Aluminuim, copper or lead is generally used as compensator. In our study, we would like to introduce a result of the attenuation and compensation effect of radiation use compensator made by duralumin and its clinical use. The thickness of compensator was calculated by the attenustion of radiation, which was measured by polystyrene phantom and ionization chamber(farmer). The compensation effect of radiation was measured by diode detector. All of conditions were set as in real treatment, and the distanc from source to detector was 446 cm. We also made fixation of device to easily attach the compensator to LINAC. Beam spoiler was menufactured and placed on the patient to irradiate sufficient dose to the skin. diode detector were placed on head, neck, chest, umbilicus. pelvis and knee with each their entranced exit points, and datas of dose distribution were evaluated and compared in each points for eleven patients(Feb. 96-Feb. 97). The attenuation rate of irradiation by duralumin compensator was measured as $1.4\%$ in 2mm thickness. The mean attenuation rate was $1.3\%$ per 2mm as increasing the thickness gradually to 50 mm. By using duralunim compensator, dose distribution in each points of body was measured with ${\pm}2.8\%$ by diode detectior. We could easily calculate the thickness of compensator by measuring the attenuation rate of radiation, remarkably reduce the irragularity of dose distribution duo to the thickness of body and magnify the effect of radiation therapy.

With the rapid development of information technologies, various types of game devices have been created. Moreover, the game contents are once created, they can be easily reused on several other devies without depending on their platform or media, which phenomena is so called as one source multi use (OSMU). Especially young gamers are good at not only playing the famous computer games but also good at using and utilizing the brand new and the latest mobile devices, they might be the major consumers in the area of mobile games in the near future. This paper discusses and proposes several points to be considered when a conventional computer game to be transformed into a mobile game. Since the points suggested are very useful when the conventional game is to be ported to the mobile devices of inferior performance, it is expected that more profits could be achieved in the market of mobile game with less investment and effort.

Data have been increased enormously due to the development of IT technology such as recent smart equipments, social network services and streaming services. To meet these environments the technologies that can treat mass data have received attention, and the typical one is Hadoop. Hadoop is on the basis of open source, and it has been designed to be used at general purpose computers on the basis of Linux. To initial Hadoop nearly no security was introduced, but as the number of users increased data that need security increased and there appeared new version that introduced Kerberos and Token system in 2009. But in this method there was a problem that only one secret key can be used and access permission to blocks cannot be authenticated to each user, and there were weak points that replay attack and spoofing attack were possible. Hence, to supplement these weak points and to maintain efficiency a protocol on the basis of group key, in which users are authenticated in logical group and then this is reflected to token, is proposed in this paper. The result shows that it has solved the weak points and there is no big overhead in terms of efficiency.

A numerical solution method of the boundary integral equation for axisymmetric potential flows is presented. Those are represented by ring source and ring vorticity distribution. Strengths of ring source and ring vorticity are approximated by linear functions of a parameter $\zeta$ on a segment. The geometry of the body is represented by a cubic B-spline. Limiting integral expressions as the field point tends to the surface having ring source and ring vorticity distribution are derived upto the order of ${\zeta}ln{\zeta}$. In numerical calculations, the principal value integrals over the adjacent segments cancel each other exactly. Thus the singular part proportional to $\(\frac{1}{\zeta}\)$ can be subtracted off in the calculation of the induced velocity by singularities. And the terms proportional to $ln{\zeta}$ and ${\zeta}ln{\zeta}$ can be integrated analytically. Thus those are subtracted off in the numerical calculations and the numerical value obtained from the analytic integrations for $ln{\zeta}$ and ${\zeta}ln{\zeta}$ are added to the induced velocity. The four point Gaussian Quadrature formula was used to evaluate the higher order terms than ${\zeta}ln{\zeta}$ in the integration over the adjacent segments to the field points and the integral over the segments off the field points. The root mean square errors, $E_2$, are examined as a function of the number of nodes to determine convergence rates. The convergence rate of this method approaches 2.
