The mutual exclusion is originally based on the theory of race condition prevention in symmetric multi-processor operating systems. But recently, due to the generalization of multi-core processors, its application range has been rapidly shifted to parallel processing application domain. POSIX thread, WIN32 thread, and Java thread, which are typical parallel processing application development environments, provide a unique mutual exclusion mechanism for each of them. Applications that are very sensitive to performance in these environments may want to reduce the burden of mutual exclusion, even at some cost, such as inconvenience of coding. In this study, we implement Dekker's and Peterson's algorithm in the form of busy-wait and processor-yield in various platforms, and compare the performance of them with the built-in mutual exclusion mechanisms to evaluate the usability of the classic algorithms. The analysis result shows that Dekker's algorithm of processor-yield type is superior to the built-in mechanisms in POSIX and WIN32 thread environments at least 2 times and up to 70 times, and confirms that the practicality of the algorithm is sufficient.

As the number of the Internet users increases explosively, a solution for this problem is web caching. So, many techniques on improving cache server performance have been suggested. In this paper, we analyze the cause of the bottleneck in cache servers, and propose an arbitral thread and delayed caching mechanism as a solution. We use an arbitral thread in order to provide a quick service to user requests through eliminating the ready multi-thread search problem in case of disk writing operation. We also use delayed caching in order to provide stable system operation through avoiding overloaded disk operation and queue threshold. Proposed cache server is implemented through modification on SQUlD cache server, and we compare its performance with the original SQUID cache server.

Objectives : This systematic review aims to assess the effectiveness of thread embedding therapy on animal model for rheumatoid arthritis. Methods : Search was conducted in the Cochrane library, MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan-Fang Database, Technology Journal Database, the Korean Studies Information Service System, the Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System, the Research Information Sharing Service, the National Digital Science Library, the Korean Traditional Knowledge Portal and the Korea Citation Index. Data were extracted concerning animal model, intervention and rheumatoid arthritis indicator by two independent reviewers. Reporting quality was also evaluated by the ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting In Vivo Experiments) guidelines 2.0. Results : One thousand thirty six studies were primarily selected. After screening, 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. 1 study was published 2005, 1 study was published 2010, 1 study was published 2012, 1 study was published 2015, 2 studies were published 2016, 3 studies were published 2017, 1 study was published 2018. The most frequently used acupoints were ST36 and BL23, and were used with an average frequency of 11.8 days. All of these thread embedding therapy studies were effective on behavioral, morphological, immunohistological and hematological indicators to treat of rheumatoid arthritis model. Conclusions : These results demonstrated the effectiveness of thread embedding therapy and suggested the putative mechanism. However, considering the small number of included studies, low reporting quality and differences in study design, further studies with rigorous designs and high reporting quality need to be conducted.

A comparative study of stress distributions in the maxillary bone with three different types of abutment was conducted. Finite element analysis was adopted to determine stress generated in the bone with the different implant systems with micro threads (Onebody type implant, Internal type implant, and External type implant). It was found that the types of abutments and the number of micro threads have significant influence on the stress distribution in the maxillary bone. They were due to the difference in the load transfer mechanism and the size of contact area between abutment and fixture. Also the maximum effective stress in the maxillary bone was increased with increasing inclination angle of load. It was concluded that the maximum effective stress in the bone was the lowest by the internal implant among the maximum effective stresses by other two types of implants and by appropriate number of micro threads, and that the specific number of micro thread was existed to decrease the maximum effective stress in the maxillary bone due to different implant systems and loading conditions.

This study has been investigated the comparison of the seam strength of hand sewing with machine sewing using two kinds of sewing thread. On machine sewing, thread is used for sale, on hand sewing, thread is used for every fabric weft yarn. Breaking strength, efficiency and breaking mode of seams were examined under various sewing conditions using three kinds of fabric and three kinds of stitch type. The results obtained are as follows: The seam strength is not affected by sewing mechanism, but affected by a breaking mode : The type of slipped mode has a higher seam strength of hand sewing than that of machine sewing. When fabrics and threads were broken by a higher seam strength of machine sewing than that of hand sewing. Fabrics having low density using plain seam slipped more easily, so seam strength was greatly lesser. Fabrics having higher density had higher to seam strength. We should choose appropriate seams based on production, economy and aesthetics.

A network based intrusion detection system(N-IDS), can detect intruders coming in through packets in real time environment. The ability of capture of packet is the most important factor when we evaluate the performance of the system. The time delay between the time handling one packet capture and next one is variant become of packet handling mechanism. So for N-IDS can not settle this problem because most systems use a single processor. In this thesis, we solve the problem of irregular tine delay with a file socket and multi-thread processing. We designed and implement, the Crasto system. By an accurate observation, the performance testing shows that the Crasto reduces the capture delay time to 1/5 comparing to the existing single process N-IDS, and maintain delay time regularly.

Productivty of tapping has been increasing through the tcchnological advances in synchronization between spindle rotation and feed motion even in the high spindle speed. However, not much researches have been conducted about tapping process because its complicate cutting mechanism. In order ta investigate the characteristics of the tapping process, this paper concentrates on the analysis of curting torque behavior during one cycle of lapping. As one completc thread is performed through the whole chamfer ercuttlng, cutting torque increases highly in chamfer cutting, but smaothly in full thread cutting Functioning of the threads guide. Cutting torque in backward cutting is smaller than in Sorwerd cutting due to only friction farce in against between the tool and workpiece. And torque behavior of a periodic Sine ripple-mark was identified during one revolution of a tap.

For the development of an electric molding machine with low energy, high performance, and high reliability, characterization, finite element analysis and fatigue strength analyses were performed. Strain was measured by strain gages bonded on electric molding machine and compared with stress analysis results using I-DEAS. The analyses showed good agreement with test results. By means of the comparison, we could draw an adequate boundary condition for the stress analysis of the components of electric molding machine. Additionally, we could verify the load distribution mechanism among the parts. The life prediction results for tie bar and thread zone showed infinite life.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to explore research trends in gold implantation therapy performed on the animal and human body, through a review of clinical studies focused on gold thread, gold needle and gold bead. Methods : Medical databases, including Pubmed, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, RISS4u, KISTI, OASIS and KTKP, were searched for relevant articles published from their launch to December 31, 2015 using the key word 'gold' with '$thread^*$', '$needle^*$', '$acupuncture^*$', '$wire^*$', '$bead^*$', '$embed^*$', '$implant^*$', or '$insert^*$'. The results were classified into in vivo studies, clinical trials and clinical reports. Analysis of the results was conducted in several research areas, from the identity of studies such as nationality and published year, to the gold preparations-features and implanted locations and to the outcomes that reflect the clinically favorable or adverse effect of gold implantation therapy. Results : A total of 30 studies including 11 in vivo studies, 4 clinical trials and 15 case reports, were found in the search. We observed certain research trends according to the research time, nationality and target indication of the studies. The studies primarily revealed a chronic local inflammatory response which could be a useful mechanism for pain-relief in musculoskeletal diseases and facial rejuvenation. Researches concerning long-term reactions or adverse effects were rare. Conclusion : The results show that the efforts to discover the level of clinical efficacy of gold implantation therapy were steady and worldwide. However, further researches on the longterm effect, and more importantly, the safety of gold implantation therapy are required.
