Intraoperative monitoring (IOM) utilizes electrophysiological techniques as a surrogate test and evaluation of nervous function while a patient is under general anesthesia. They are increasingly used for procedures, both surgical and endovascular, to avoid injury during an operation, examine neurological tissue to guide the surgery, or to test electrophysiological function to allow for more complete resection or corrections. The application of IOM during pediatric brain tumor resections encompasses a unique set of technical issues. First, obtaining stable and reliable responses in children of different ages requires detailed understanding of normal age-adjusted brain-spine development. Neurophysiology, anatomy, and anthropometry of children are different from those of adults. Second, monitoring of the brain may include risk to eloquent functions and cranial nerve functions that are difficult with the usual neurophysiological techniques. Third, interpretation of signal change requires unique sets of normative values specific for children of that age. Fourth, tumor resection involves multiple considerations including defining tumor type, size, location, pathophysiology that might require maximal removal of lesion or minimal intervention. IOM techniques can be divided into monitoring and mapping. Mapping involves identification of specific neural structures to avoid or minimize injury. Monitoring is continuous acquisition of neural signals to determine the integrity of the full longitudinal path of the neural system of interest. Motor evoked potentials and somatosensory evoked potentials are representative methodologies for monitoring. Free-running electromyography is also used to monitor irritation or damage to the motor nerves in the lower motor neuron level : cranial nerves, roots, and peripheral nerves. For the surgery of infratentorial tumors, in addition to free-running electromyography of the bulbar muscles, brainstem auditory evoked potentials or corticobulbar motor evoked potentials could be combined to prevent injury of the cranial nerves or nucleus. IOM for cerebral tumors can adopt direct cortical stimulation or direct subcortical stimulation to map the corticospinal pathways in the vicinity of lesion. IOM is a diagnostic as well as interventional tool for neurosurgery. To prove clinical evidence of it is not simple. Randomized controlled prospective studies may not be possible due to ethical reasons. However, prospective longitudinal studies confirming prognostic value of IOM are available. Furthermore, oncological outcome has also been shown to be superior in some brain tumors, with IOM. New methodologies of IOM are being developed and clinically applied. This review establishes a composite view of techniques used today, noting differences between adult and pediatric monitoring.

한국의 지질 환경은 암석 분포가 매우 다양하고 복잡한 구조 활동의 영향을 받아 지하매질의 이방성 특성이 국부적으로 심하게 변화한다. 기존의 이방성 주시 모델링의 경우 지질 모델을 2차원으로 단순화시킴으로써 이러한 복잡한 지질 환경을 제대로 고려할 수 없었다. 또한 약 이방성 가정을 사용하여 실제로 나타날 수 있는 지하 매질의 심각한 이방성 영향을 주시 모델링에서 고려할 수 없었다. 이에 이 연구에서는 보다 실제적이고 복잡한 3차원 횡등방성 매질(transversely isotropic media)에서 q-P파의 초동 주시 양상을 모사할 수 있는 주시 모델링 알고리듬을 개발하였다. 이 알고리듬에서는 2차원 비선형 주시 내삽(2D nonlinear traveltime interpolation) 기법과 주시의 3차원 격자 채움법(mapping)을 이용한 직접 전파법(direct calculation)을 통해 급격한 물성의 변화에도 주시 계산이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한, 최소 주시 계산과정에서 수치 미분을 통한 최대 경사법(steepest descent method)을 사용하여 약 이방성 가정을 극복하였다. 개발된 알고리듬은 해석해와 비교하여 그 타당성을 검증하였고 3차원 2층구조에 대한 주시 계산을 수행하여 물성이 급격히 변화하는 모델에 대해서도 안정적으로 주시 계산이 이루어짐을 확인하였다. 이 연구에서 개발한 3차원 주시 모델링 알고리듬은 향후 구조보정이나 토모그래피 알고리듬 개발에 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

최근 다중 지질정보의 통합적 해석은 GIS의 중요한 응용 분야중 하나로 인식되고 있다. 공간통합을 위하여 지구통계학적 방법들이 개발되어 있지만, 통합결과와 입력 주제도들 사이의 관계에 대한 통계적, 정량적 분석방법론의 개발은 아직까지 체계적으로 정립되어 있지 못한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 지질도, 지화학자료, 항공지구물리자료, 지형자료 및 원격탐사 영상등 다양한 지질정보등이 보고된 옥동지역을 대상으로 하여 광물 부존 예상도 작성 사례연구를 수행하여 기존에 이용되고 있는 여러 공간 통합 방법중 확실인자 (Certainty Factor: CF) 추정방법과 다변량 통계 분석방법중 하나인 주성분분석을 시험적인 통합방법으로 우선적으로 적용한 뒤, 입력 자료와 통합결과에 대한 정량적인 통계량 정보를 추출하고자 하였다. 입력 주제도와 통합 결과사이의 관계 규명에는 통계 분할표를 이용한 통계처리를 편의 분석에는 잭나이프 방법을 적용하였다. 통합정보에 대한 통계량 분석을 통하여, 통합 결과와 입력자료 사이의 정량적 관계를 추출할 수 있었으며, 부가적으로 입력자료의 상태수준에 대한 판단정보를 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 GIS 관점에서 통합결과 해석에 중요한 결정보조자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 복잡한 다중정보를 다루는데 공간 통합문제에서도 입력정보 검증을 위한 일반적일 처리과정으로도 발전할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This study was conducted to comprehend the spatial distribution characteristics, habitats and appearances of Hydropotes inermis by using the biotope mapping in Daebudo Island, Ansan-si. The result is base data to understand status and manage potential inhabitation of Hydropotes inermis in Daebudo Island through the Maximum Entropy model. The study used 105 traces from the primary investigation and 452 traces in the secondary investigation. The biotope types were distinquished Hydropotes inermis habitats largest from the order of natural forest (15.1%), natural coast (13.7%), marshy cultivated land (12.6%), and dry cultivated land (11.7%), and from the inhabitation trace results. Hydropotes inermis appearanced biotope types were the greatest in the order of cultivated land (49.73%) > forest (18.85%) > coast (7.00%) > grassland (6.28%). Since forests in Daebudo Island have low slope and altitude, it was concluded that Hydropotes inermis would live in most of the forests. A high number of Hydropotes inermis was found to appear in areas where the grassland is formed including cultivated lands (include unused paddies and fields) and marshy grasslands, which would result in direct damage of crops. According to the Maxent modeling analysis that used location information of Hydropotes inermis, the AUC value was 0.635 based on the ROC curve. In Daebudo Island, areas with over 0.635 potential inhabitation value are distributed all over the place, and it was concluded that each population would have a different scope of influence and home range. Hydropotes inermis living in Daebudo Island have high habitat suitability mainly around the cultivated lands near the roads, but due to the bare lands and roads, it is expected that their habitats would be fragmented and damaged, which would have a direct and indirect effect in maintaining the Hydropotes inermis population. Also, considering habitat disturbance, diverse methods for reducing damage including capturing some individuals within the limit that does not disperse Hydropotes inermis population in Daebudo Island must be carried out.

During the industrial plant system life cycle, required technologies are developed and assessed to analyze their performance, risks and costs. The assessment is called technology readiness assessment (TRA) and the measure of readiness is called technology readiness level (TRL). The TRL consists of 9 levels and through the TRL assessment, the technology to be developed and its components are assigned to their appropriate TRL. TRL assessment should be performed in each life cycle stages to monitor the technology readiness and analyze the potential risks and costs. However, even though the concept of TRL has been largely adopted by numerous organizations and industry, direct and clear assignment of target TRL for each life cycle stage has been overlooked. Direct mapping/assignment of target TRL for each life cycle has benefits as follow: (1) the technical risks condition of each life cycle stage can be better understood, (2) cost incurred if the technology development is failed can be analyzed in each life cycle stage, and (3) more effective decision making because the technology readiness achievement for each life cycle stages is agreed beforehand. In this paper, we propose a steel-making plant system life cycle and TRL assignment to each of the system life cycle stage. By directly assigning target TRL for each life cycle stages, we look forward to a more coordinated (in terms of exit criteria) and highly effective (in terms of technical risks identification and eventually prevent project failure) technology development and assessment processes.

Seagrass meadows are considered as critical habitats for a wide variety of marine organisms in coastal and estuarine ecosystems. In many cases, studies on the spatial/temporal distribution of seagrass have depended on direct observations using SCUBA diving. As an alternative method fur studying seagrass distribution, an application of hydroacoustic technique has been assessed for mapping seagrass distribution in Dongdae Bay, on the south coast of Korea, in September 2005. Data were collected using high frequency transducer (420 kHz split-beam), which was installed with towed body system. The system was linked to DGPS to make goo-referenced data. Additionally, in situ seagrass distribution has been observed using underwater cameras and SCUBA diving at four stations in order to compare with acoustic data. Acoustic survey was conducted along 23 transects with 3-4 blot ship speed. Seagrass beds were vertically limited to depths less than 3.5m and seagrass height ranged between 55 and 90cm at the study sites. Dense seagmss beds were mainly found at the entrance of the bay and at a flat area around the center of the bay. Although the study area was a relatively small, the vertical and spatial distributions of the seagrass were highly variable with bathymetry and region. Considering dominant species, Zostera marina L., preliminary estimation of seagrass biomass with acoustic and direct sampling data was approximately $56.55g/m^2$, and total biomass of 104 tones (coefficient variation: 25.77%) was estimated at the study area. Hydroacoustic method provided valuable information to understand distribution pattern and to estimate seagrass biomass.

IC 기판의 가장 중요한 성질들의 하나는 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 균일해야만 한다는 것이다. 웨이퍼 결함 분석의 다양한 물리적 접근 방법 중에서 적외선 조사 기법에 특별한 관심이 모아지고 있다. 특히, 높은 공간적 분해력을 가지고 있는 근적외선 흡수 방법은 반-절연 GaAs 내의 결함들을 직접적으로 관찰하는데 이용되고 있다. 적외선 전송에 기초를 둔 이 기법은 신속하고 비파괴 적이다. 이 방법은, 직접적으로 GaAs 반도체의 적외선 영상은 결함의 광흡수 작용에 기인한 것임을 밝히고 있다. 반-절연 GaAs 내의 EL2에 관련된, 비 균일 적으로 분포된 결함들의 적외선 흡수 영상에서 콘트라스트가 반전되는 현상에 대해 새로운 모델을 제시하고 있다. 저온 포토퀀칭 실험은, 직접적인 방법으로, GaAs 웨이퍼의 콘트라스트 반전 영상은 밴드갭의 지엽적인 변동이나 전하 재분포에 의한 것이 아니라 흡수와 산란의 두 메커니즘에 의한 것임을 증명하고 있다.

Integral cryptanalysis, which is based on the existence of (higher-order) integral distinguishers, is a powerful cryptographic method that can be used to evaluate the security of modern block ciphers. In this paper, we focus on substitution-permutation network (SPN) ciphers and propose a criterion to characterize how an r-round integral distinguisher can be extended to an (r+1)-round higher-order integral distinguisher. This criterion, which builds a link between integrals and higher-order integrals of SPN ciphers, is in fact based on the theory of direct decomposition of a linear space defined by the linear mapping of the cipher. It can be directly utilized to unify the procedure for finding 4-round higher-order integral distinguishers of AES and ARIA and can be further extended to analyze higher-order integral distinguishers of various block cipher structures. We hope that the criterion presented in this paper will benefit the cryptanalysts and may thus lead to better cryptanalytic results.

In this paper, we propose an improved optical security system using three phase-encoded images and the principle of interference. This optical system based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer consists of one phase-encoded virtual image to be encrypted and two phase-encoded images, encrypting image and decrypting image, where every pixel in the three images has a phase value of '0' and '$\pi$'. The proposed encryption is performed by the multiplication of an encrypting image and a phase-encoded virtual image which dose not contain any information from the decrypted image. Therefore, even if the unauthorized users steal and analyze the encrypted image, they cannot reconstruct the required image. This virtual image protects the original image from counterfeiting and unauthorized access.. The decryption of the original image is simply performed by interfering between a reference wave and a direct pixel-to-pixel mapping image of the encrypted image with a decrypting image. Both computer simulations and optical experiments confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed optical technique for optical security applications.
