  • We developed a $7{\times}7$ parallel multiplier using LTPS-TFT. The proposed multiplier has multi-valued logic 7-3 Compressor with folding, 3-2 Compressor, and final carry propagation adder. Architecture minimized the carry propagation. And power consumption reduced by switching the current source to the circuit which is operated in current mode. The proposed multiplier improved PDP by 23%, EDP by 59%, and propagation delay time by 47% compared with Wallace Tree multiplier.

  • The bioavailability of digoxin generic tablets manufactures in Korea (formulations A & B) wwere compared to a standard (formulation C; Lanoxin brand digoxin, Burroughs Wellcome, USA) in 12 healthy Korean male volunteers (mean age 31.4 years) in a single dose, randomized, complete block crossover study. Using a latin square design, each of the subjects was randomized to the order number and allocated to each of the three treatments of 0.5mg oral digoxin. Digoxin conc4ntrations in serum and urine samples collected for 48 hours after dosing were measured by fluoprescence polarization immunoassy and radioimmunoassy, respectively. Treatments were compared by using nonlinear least squares regession analysis to evaluate the following pharmacokinetic parameters : maximum serum concentation $(C_{max})$; time of maximum serum concentation $(T_{max})$; area under the serum concentration-time curve $AUC_{0-12}$, $C_{max}$\;and\;(AUC_{0-12})$; and cummulative urinary excretion for 0-48 hours $(CLE_{0-48}.\;Mean\;AUC_{0-12},\;C_{max},\;and\;CUE_{0-48}$ values for formulations B and C were significantly different from formulation A (P<0.001), but not significantly diffeerent form each other. Basede on $AUL_{0-12}\;and\;CUE_{0-48}$ respectively, the relative availability of formulation B was 87.5% and 89.6% and the relative availability of formultation A was 43% and 35% when compared to formulation C(the standard).

  • Purpose : We evaluated the occurrence of renal scarring in children with unilateral vesicoureteral reflux(VUR), and the relationships between renal scar formation and risk factors such as VUR, duration of fever, acute-phase reactant, age, and sex. Methods : We retrospectively analyzed the data of 35 children newly diagnosed with unilateral vesicoureteral reflux after urinary tract infection(UTI) in Wallace Memorial Baptist Hospital between January 1996 and December 2004. Ultrasonography, Erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), and C-reactive protein(CRP) were performed initially. Voiding cystourethrography(VCUG) was performed 1 to 3 weeks after treatment with UTI. $^{99m}Tc$-dimercaptosuccinic acid(DMSA) scan was performed 4 to 6 months after treatment. Results : Scintigraphic renal damage was present in 29 percent of the refluxing and in 3 percent of the nonrefluxing kidneys(P<0.05). The severity of VUR was significantly correlated with renal scar formation(P<0.05). The duration of fever before treatmen($5.0{\pm}1.3$ vs $2.6{\pm}1.3$) and prolonged fever of over 5 days were significantly different between renal scar group and non-renal scar group(P<0.05). ESR($56.3{\pm}23.8$ vs $27.9{\pm}18.1mm/hr$, P<0.05) and CRP($12.8{\pm}7.3$ vs $3.9{\pm}3.8mg/dL$, P<0.05) at the diagnosis of UTI in the renal scar group were higher, compared to those of the non-renal scar group. There were no significant differences in age and sex between the two groups. Conclusion : The presence and grade of VUR, the duration of fever before treatment, prolonged fever over 5 days, ESR, and CRP were risk factors for renal scarring, irrespective of age and sex. Diagnosis and management of VUR, in children with UTI, is important to prevent renal scars.

An Overlapping Types Model and the Pure Medium of Exchange Role of Fiat Money (중복유형모형(重複類型模型)과 화폐(貨幣)의 순수교환기능(純粹交換機能))

  • Any money model should address the most important phenomenon of a monetary economy, which is the phenomenon of the rate of return dominance. Even if the holding returns on financial or nonfinancial assets are higher than the rate of return on fiat money holding, which is typically zero, people still hold and use money. In a period of accelerating inflation, number of dominating assets increases continuously, yet people continue to hold and use money. Wallace's (1980) overlapping generations model cannot address the rate of return dominance phenomenon. His model does not capture the mediun of exchange role of fiat money. In this paper, an overlapping types model of fiat money is constructed, in which different types of consumers have different preferences on different types of goods, are endowed with different types of goods, are located at seperated regions, and live for only two periods. In this model, people hold and use money despite the dominating assets, even if inflation accelates. Money in this case serves as a pure medium of exchange, whereas in Wallace's model, money serves as a pure store of value, and money disappears if a dominating asset exists. An interesting feature of the overlapping types model presented in this paper is that money does not provide a cheap approximation to an idealized and efficient real allocation. A monetary economy is always superior to a nonmonetary economy, because money helps overcome the incompleteness of the overlapping types friction. In a monetary economy, however, a pareto optimal allocation cannot always be achieved, because money cannot always overcome the overlapping types friction itself. Therefore, with the criterion of optimality of real allocations, the monetary economy is more optimal than a nonmonetary economy but less optimal than a complete Arrow-Debreu economy. This feature has important implications on macro modelling. Because of the difficulty in introducing money into a macro model in an essential and endogenous manner as in the overlapping types model of this paper, a macro model typically ignores money and studies real allocations without the money factor. The possible inefficiencies of a monetary economy, relative to a complete real Arrow-Debreu economy, may indicate differences in real allocations between the two models.

  • According to the thesis of the publicity of reasons, practical reasons are public in their nature: the normative force of reasons may extend across different agents. Wallace argues that the normative mode of public reasons can be exhausted by what he calls the requirement of non-interference. I argue that the publicity thesis as he presents it equally applies to both (non-special) interpersonal relations and special relationships. At first, Wallace's version of the publicity thesis may seem incompatible with the fact that there exists reasons of positive aid. He says that when these reasons obtain in the case of interpersonal relations, they are accommodated by relevant specific moral principles. I defend this claim by showing that there is a kind of internal relation between the publicity thesis and moral principles in question. It is true that the reasons of positive aid obtain in the case of special relationships as well. I show that in this case such reasons are grounded by the requirements of the given special relationships themselves. I argue that the logical consequence of these claims is what I call the dualistic conception of our practical reasoning about what to do and that this dualism does not raise a serious challenge to the publicity thesis. The overall arguments of this paper, I believe, make us to be "realistic" about the philosophical significance of the thesis in question in moral discourses.

  • 고속 회로 합성에 있어서, Wallace 트리 스타일은 연산을 위한 가장 효율적인 수행 방식의 하나로 인식 되어졌다. 그러나, 이러한 방법은 빠른 곱셈기의 수행이나 여러가지 연산수행 에 있어, 입력 시그널을 고려하지 않은 일반적인 구조로 수행되어졌다. 본 논문은 연산기에 있어서 이러한 제한점을 극복하는 문제를 다룬다. 우리는 캐리-세이브 방법을 덧셈, 뺄셈, 곱셈 이 혼합되어 있는 일반적인 연산 회로에 적용한다. 그 결과 효율적인 회로를 생성하며, 시그널 들의 임의의 시그널 스위칭 변화에 대해 회로의 전력 소모를 최적화 한다. 우리는 이러한 최적화 방법을 여러 디지털 필터에 적용시켜 보았고 이는 기존의 비트 단위가 아닌 캐리-세이브 수행방법보다 상당한 양의 전력 소모의 향상을 보였다.

  • 어류의 성 성숙중의 암컷 혈액에는 수컷에서는 출현하지 않는 암컷 특이 난황 단백질, 즉 난황 전구 물질 (vitellogenin, VTG)이 출현한다. 이 물질은 자성호르몬 (17$\beta$-estradiol, E2)의 영향에 의해 간에서 합성되며 발달중인 난소에 들어간 후 난모세포의 난황물질을 구축하고, 수정 후 배 발생 중에 영양물질로써 이용된다(Wallace and Selman,1981). 또한, VTG는 미성숙한 암컷 및 수컷에 E2처리에 의해 합성되어지기도 한다(Mommsen and Walsh, 1988).

  • In teleost, vitellogenin (Vtg) is synthesised in the liver in response to estrogens and transported by the blood to the growing oocytes where it is incorporated by micropincytosis (Selman and Wallace, 1982). Generally, Vtg is not induced in normal male fish but male fish are capable of synthesis Vtg in reponse to exogenous estrogen and xenoestrogens. (omitted)
