Age and growth of the marbled rockfish, Sebastiscus marmoratus were studied based on 818 specimens caught from the coastal waters of Cheju Island from July 1992 to July 1993 and from June 1994 to July 1995. According to the monthly changes of marginal increment in each annual ring groups, the ring of otolith was formed in both female and male in February. Relationship between the total body length (TL) and the radius of otolith (R) was estimated, Growth of females was rather slower than that of male in total length; TL=-0.526+4.818R(r=0.847) for female, and TL=-1.895+ 5.239R (r=0.881) for male. The growth curve fits well with Bertalanffy equation: $L_{t}=21.484(1-e^{-0.424(t+0.334)})$ for female and $L_{t}=23.698(1-e^{-0.441(t+0.0589)})$ for male, Growth in weight as follows: $W_t=163.42(1-e^{-0.424(t+0.334)})^3$ for female and $W_t=210.14(1-e^{-0.441(t+0.0589)})^3$ for male.

$\^$137/Cs gamma ray induced thermoluminescenc(TL) from Na$\^$+/ ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ and unimplanted Al$_2$O$_3$ and the TL from Na$\^$+/ ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ are measured over the temperature range of 340K～620K. The TL curve of Na$\^$+/ ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ induced by $\^$137/Cs gamma ray is split into iolated TL peak located at 415K, 452K, 508K, and 568K. Because that the concentration of trapped char he carries of $\^$137/Cs gamma ray induced Al$_2$O$_3$ implanted with Na$\^$+/ ion is larger than that of Na$\^$+/ ion only implanted Al$_2$O$_3$, and the trap concentration of Na$\^$+/ ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ is much than that of $\^$137/Cs gamma ray only irradiated Al$_2$O$_3$, the TL intensity of Na$\^$+/ ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ induced by $\^$137/Cs gamma ray is about 20 times and 5 times higher than that of Al$_2$O$_3$ only implanted with Na$\^$+/ ion and Al$_2$O$_3$ only irradiated with $\^$137/Cs gamma ray, respectively. In proportion as ion implantation does and energy are incresed, the number of generated defects and the rate of defect creation are incresed, respectively. Therefore the TL intensity of ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ is depend on ion dose and energy. Acccrding to increse of incident ion mass, the TL intensity of ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ is abruptly decresce. This result showes that the TL intensity of ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ is closely related to ion depth range as wll as rate of defect creatin. The TL intensity of ion implanted Al$_2$O$_3$ is found to be related with defects generated by ion implantation. Table Caption

As wireless network market is increasing rapidly, the biggest issue is to transfer safe data and to authenticate users. This paper proposes ECbA(Elliptic Curve based Authentication) which consists of the mutual authentication mechanism that users can ascertain the identity of an authentication server and the user authentication mechanism that an authentication server can make sure users' identity, by using Elliptic Curve algorithms. The proposed ECbA system diminishes the message quantity and the execution time by using the small elliptic curve algorithm with the small key length in authentication. In addition, as this paper reduces the authentication steps of existing EAP_TLS into 6 authentication steps, the communication cost and mutual authentication time can be saved. As this paper distributes new keys, whenever authenticating users by using key exchange mechanism, it provides safe encryption communication and prevents DoS attack by controlling the users authentication request by authentication server.

Recently, with increasing scale of internet of Things (IoT), a large amount of data are generated and various services using such data are emerging. Therefore, a protocol suitable for IoT environment that can efficiently process / transmit big data is needed. MQTT is a lightweight messaging protocol for IoT environment. Although MQTT protocol can use TLS to provide security, it has a problem in that handshake and packet overhead will increase when TLS is used. Therefore, this paper proposed as Secure_MQTT protocol. It can provide stronger security by using lightweight encryption algorithm for MQTT protocol.

Gamma irradiation was applied to dried pollack to improve its microbiological quality and evaluate quality stability of irradiated samples. Thermoluminescence (TL) properties of minerals separated from irradiated samples were measured for possible use in identifying irradiation treatment. Dried pollack was packaged in commercial unit (PVC film, 0.06 mm thickness) and stored at $15{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 6 months. Samples showed over $10^4\;CFU/g$ in total aerobic bacteria or yeasts&molds, which increased during storage, reaching $10^6-10^7\;CFU/g$ at 3rd month of storage. Irradiation at 3 kGy was effective for improving hygienic quality for 6 months, keeping microbial population under 20 CFU/g. Gamma irradiation at 3 kGy or less did not significantly influence physicochemical quality attributes, such as browning, TBA value, volatile basic nitrogen, trimethylamine, and sensory properties, whereas storage time remarkably induced quality changes of dried pollack. TL analysis was proved suitable for identifying irradiated from non-irradiated samples over 6 months of storage.

Photostimulated luminescence (PSL) and thermoluminescence (TL) analyses were applied to identify the cookie molds mixed with 2 mg of 10 kGy-irradiated minerals according to cookie processing methods and sonication time (0~60 min) for mineral separation. PSL analysis showed that photon counts of cookies, dried or baked, ranged intermediate levels between the lower and upper threshold (700~5,000 counts/60 s), thereby showing its unsuitablility for screening of irradiated cookie. The TL glow curve intensities, measured according to mineral separation time (5, 10, 20, 40 and 60 mins) from the cookies using a sonicator, were high enough to identify irradiation status and significantly increased with the time in dried cookies. Those of baked cookies, however, were relatively low and not linearly increased with the time, but still possible to identify them (p<0.05).

Gamma irradiated-treatment of natural medicinal plants can be used to improve extraction transference number and for qualitative improvement of color when applied to functional material exploration. This study investigated the biological activities of Aralia elata cortex extracts upon gamma irradiation. In addition, different physical techniques [photostimulated luminescence (PSL) and thermoluminescence (TL)] were used for irradiation identification of Aralia elata cortex. In PSL analysis, non-irradiated (0 kGy) sample showed a negative result of 400 photon counts (PCs), whereas irradiated (5, 10, and 30 kGy) samples showed positive results of 90,100.00, 312,614.33, and 321,661.67 PCs, respectively. In the TL method, growth curve showed very unusual behaviors around $200^{\circ}C$ upon natural-irradiation of the non-irradiated (0 kGy) sample and around $150{\sim}250^{\circ}C$ for the irradiated (5, 10, and 30 kGy) samples. The TL ratio was 0.1 in non-irradiated samples at 0.011, whereas the values of irradiated samples (5, 10, and 30 kGy) were 0.1 at 1.105, 1.009, and 2.206, respectively. For phenolics of gamma-irradiated Aralia elata cortex, water and 50% ethanol extracts had the highest amounts, $17.30{\pm}0.40mg/g$ and $18.87{\pm}0.46mg/g$ at 10 kGy irradiation, respectively. The inhibitory activities of angiotensin-converting enzyme and xanthin oxidase were higher in both irradiated water and 50% ethanol extracts than in non-irradiated ones. For pancreatin ${\alpha}$-amylase and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities, water and 50% ethanol extracts containing $200{\mu}g/mL$ of phenolics showed high inhibitory activities of 60~100% at all irradiation doses (0~30 kGy). This result confirmed that Aralia elata cortex extracts have greater anti-diabetic effects than acabose as a diabetic remedy. Gamma-irradiated Aralia elata cortex extracts are useful as a functional material with anti-diabetic effects. Thus, Aralia elata cortex extracts can be used as a functional material with various biological activities, and gamma-irradiation can be used to amplify biological activities in plants.

Purpose: Although automatic quantification software of myocardial perfusion SPECT provides highly objective and reproducible quantitative measurements, there is still some limitation in the direct use of quantitative measurements. In this study we derived parameters using normal variation of perfusion measurements, and tried to test the usefulness of these parameters. Materials and Methods: In order to calculate normal variation of perfusion measurements on myocardial perfusion SPECT, 55 patients (M:F = 28:27) of low-likelihood for coronary artery disease were enrolled and $^{201}TI$ rest/$^{99m}Tc$-MIBI stress SPECT studies were performed. Using 20-segment model, mean (m) and standard deviation (SD) of perfusion were calculated in each segment. As a myocardial viability assessment group, another 48 patients with known coronary artery disease, who underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) were enrolled. $^{201}TI$ rest/$^{99m}Tc$-MIBI stress / $^{201}TI$ 24-hr delayed SPECT was performed before CABG and SPECT was followed up 3 months after CABG. From the preoperative 24-hr delayed SPECT, $Q_{delay}$ (perfusion measurement), ${\Delta}_{delay}$ ($Q_{delay}$ - m) and $Z_{delay}$ (($Q_{delay}$ - m)/SD) were defined and diagnostic performances of them for myocardial viability were evaluated using area under curve (AUC) on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results: Segmental perfusion measurements showed considerable normal variations among segments. In men, the lowest segmental perfusion measurement was $51.8{\pm}6.5$ and the highest segmental perfusion was $87.0{\pm}5.9$, and they are $58.7{\pm}8.1$ and $87.3{\pm}6.0$, respectively in women. In the viability assessment $Q_{delay}$ showed AUC of 0.633, while those for ${\Delta}_{delay}$ and $Z_{delay}$ were 0.735 and 0.716, respectively. The AUCs of ${\Delta}_{delay}$ and $Z_{delay}$ were significantly higher than that of $Q_{delay}$ (p = 0.001 and 0.018, respectively). The diagnostic performance of ${\Delta}_{delay}$, which showed highest AUC, was 85% of sensitivity and 53% of specificity at the optimal cutoff of -24.7. Conclusion: On automatic quantification of myocardial perfusion SPECT, the normal variation of perfusion measurements were considerable among segments. In the viability assessment, the parameters considering normal variation showed better diagnostic performance than the direct perfusion measurement. This study suggests that consideration of normal variation is important in the analysis of measurements on quantitative myocardial perfusion SPECT.

Hatching date and early growth of Pacific cod Gadus macrocephalus were estimated by examination of otolith microstructure of Pacific cod juveniles collected in Jinhae Bay of Korea from May to June, 2008. Water temperature during the main spawning time ranged from 7 to $9^{\circ}C$ according to the geographic distribution of temperature measured from November to May between 2006 and 2009. The spawners were collected from December to February between 2006 and 2008, and the gonadosomatic index of spawners was larger in females than in males, showing a peak in January. Total length of juveniles ranged from 37.5 to 94.9 mm ($63.2{\pm}11.0mm$; mean${\pm}$SD). The number of daily growth increments in juvenile otoliths were on average $102{\pm}15$ in May 17 samples, $119{\pm}16$ in May 29 ones and $116{\pm}18$ in June 3 ones. Hatching dates estimated from the number of daily growth increments ranged from late December to mid-March, showing the peak between late January and mid-February. Daily growth in total length (TL, mm) can be adjusted to the Gompertz curve: $TL_t=123.2{\exp}\{-{\exp}[-0.0165(t-81.8)]\}$ ($r^2$=0.93, n=273).
