As construction projects have been getting larger and more complex, a single individual or organization cannot have complete knowledge or the abilities to handle all matters. Collaborative practices among heterogeneous individuals, which are temporarily congregated to carry out a project, are required in order to accomplish project objectives. These organizational knowledge creation processes of project teams should be understood from the active and dynamic viewpoint of how they create information and knowledge rather than from the passive and static input-process-output sequence. To this end, agent-based modeling and simulation which is built from the ground-up perspective can provide the most appropriate way to systematically investigate them. In this paper, agent-based modeling and simulation as a research method and a medium for representing theory is introduced. To illustrate, an agent-based simulation of the evolution of collaboration in large-scale project teams from a game theory and social network perspective is presented.

Raisin Bread Intelligent agents are ninety-nine percent computer science and one percent AI (Etzioni 1990). 에이전트의 정의 An agent is a computer system, situated in some environment, that is capable of flexible autonomous action in order to meet its design objectives (Wooldridge and Jennings 1995). ㆍsituatedness: the agent receives sensory input from its environment and can perform actions which change the environment in some way ㆍautonomy: the system is able to act without the direct intervention of humans and has control over its own actions and internal state. ㆍflexible: responsive, pro-active, social(omitted)

The physical and chemical characteristics of bacteriostatic water filter media are compared to granular activated carbon upon which a silver impregnated. Silver ion that has been chemically impregnated the activated carbon was the bactericidal agent in water filter media. Also, silver Ion that has teen chemically impregnated onto the activated acetate resin was the bactericidal agent in ultrasonic humidifier. Silver impregnated active carbon and silver cartridge will be able to the bactericidal agents for statical water.

Chlorotrimethylsilane reacts with chromic anhydride to form a very reactive neutral chromium (Ⅵ) oxidizing agent. The active oxidizing species is not trimethylsilyl chlorochromate as was previously reported but chromyl chloride generated in equilibrium concentration. This oxidizing agent was proved very suitable for benzylic oxidations of toluenes and alkylbenzenes to benzaldehydes and aralkyl ketones. Dichlorodimethylsilane and trichlormethylsilane also react with chromic anhydride to form chromyl chloride in an equilibrium concentration.

The apidaecins are highly active against Gram-negative bacteria. Here, we show the expression and antibacterial activity of the bumblebee, Bombus ignitus, apidaecin. We PCR-amplified 51 bp of the active domain sequence of the B. ignitus apidaecin gene and expressed the recombinant B. ignitus apidaecin active domain in baculovirus-infected insect cells. The recombinant B. ignitus apidaecin active domain shows bactericidal activity against Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas tolaasii, a serious pathogen in cultivated mushrooms, but not Gram-positive bacteria. This result suggests that the active domain of the B. ignitus apidaecin is a potential antibacterial agent for the control of bacterial brown blotch diseases.

It is highly for the research in artificial intelligence area to be able to manage knowledge as human beings do. One of the fantastic natures that human knowledge management systems have is being active. Human beings actively manage their knowledge, solve conflicts and make inference. It makes a major difference from artificial intelligent systems. This paper focuses on the discussion of the features of that human knowledge systems, which underlies the active nature. With the features extracted, further research can be done to construct a suitable infrastructure to facilitate these features to build a man-made active knowledge management system. This paper proposed 10 features that human beings follow to maintain their knowledge. We believe it will advance the evolution of active knowledge management systems by realizing these features with suitable knowledge representation/decision models and software agent technology.

Recently, polymer insulators that are used for high voltage applications have some advantages such as light weight, small size, vandalism resistance, hydrophobicity and easy making process. During outdoor service of polymer insulators, the surface of the insulating material is frequently subjected to moisture and contamination that lead to dry band arcing. Their tracking resistance, erosion resistance, end sealing and shed design are very important because dry band arcing causes degradation of polymer surface. Aging test to estimate life property of polymer insulator is executed through several international standard such as IEC 61109 and CEA tracking wheel test, but is not getting clear conclusion yet. There are two methods in the diagnosis method of polymer insulator such as off-line and on-line. The diagnosis methods in off-line are external condition analysis by the eye, contaminant analysis on surface, surface analysis, pollution withstand voltage test, power frequency flashover voltage test, lightning impulse flashover test, tensile fracture load test and flexural load test. Polymer material is also investigated it's tracking resistance by adding surface active agent in IEC 587. In this paper, the tracking performance of polymer insulator with salt solution which is added surface active agent. The diagnosis of insulator sample has been analyzed by leakage current and visual examination, STRI guide and thermal image camera.

In the search for new naturally occurring angiogenic inhibitory we found that culture broths from two unidentified fungal strains exerted potent inhibitory activities on capillary-like tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in vitro. Two active compounds were isolated by bioassay-guided separation and their structures were identified as gliotoxin (1) and its derivative methylthiogliotoxin (2) by spectroscopic analyses. These compounds significantly inhibited the migration of HUVEC assessed by in vitro wounding migration assay and exhibited at least 10 times more potent inhibition of proliferation of HUVECs as compared with that of cancer cell lines such as HeLa, MCF-7, and KB 3-1 cells. Especially, gliotoxin having disulfide group exerted more potent activities than methylthiogliotoxin, suggesting that gliotoxin could be a useful compound for further study as an anti-angiogenic agent.
