Connected component labeling (CCL) is a mandatory step in image segmentation where objects are extracted and uniquely labeled. CCL is a computationally expensive operation and thus is often done in parallel processing framework to reduce execution time. Various parallel CCL methods have been proposed in the literature. Among them are NSZ label equivalence (NSZ-LE) method, modified 8 directional label selection (M8DLS) method, HYBRID1 method, and HYBRID2 method. Soh et al. showed that HYBRID2 outperforms the others and is the best so far. In this paper we propose a new hybrid parallel CCL algorithm termed as HYBRID3 that combines selective four directional label search (S4DLS) with label backtracking (LB). We show that the average percentage speedup of the proposed over M8DLS is around 60% more than that of HYBRID2 over M8DLS for various kinds of images.

We develop an efficient numerical method for pricing the Derivative Linked Securities (DLS). The payoff structure of the hybrid DLS consists with a standard 2-Star step-down type ELS and the range accrual product which depends on the number of days in the coupon period that the index stay within the pre-determined range. We assume that the 2-dimensional Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) as the model of two equities and a no-arbitrage interest model (One-factor Hull and White interest rate model) as a model for the interest rate. In this study, we employ the Monte Carlo simulation method with the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) parallel computing as the General Purpose computing on Graphic Processing Unit (GPGPU) technology for fast and efficient numerical valuation of DLS. Comparing the Monte Carlo method with single CPU computation or MPI implementation, the result of Monte Carlo simulation with CUDA parallel computing produces higher performance.

In many image processing tasks, connected component labeling (CCL) is performed to extract regions of interest. CCL was usually done in a sequential fashion when image resolution was relatively low and there are small number of input channels. As image resolution gets higher up to HD or Full HD and as the number of input channels increases, sequential CCL is too time-consuming to be used in real time applications. To cope with this situation, parallel CCL framework was introduced where multiple cores are utilized simultaneously. Several parallel CCL methods have been proposed in the literature. Among them are NSZ label equivalence (NSZ-LE) method[1], modified 8 directional label selection (M8DLS) method[2], and HYBRID1 method[3]. Soh [3] showed that HYBRID1 outperforms NSZ-LE and M8DLS, and argued that HYBRID1 is by far the best. In this paper we propose an improved hybrid parallel CCL algorithm termed as HYBRID2 that hybridizes M8DLS with label backtracking (LB) and show that it runs around 20% faster than HYBRID1 for various kinds of images.

A facile and effective approach has been developed to prepare hybrid hollow microspheres, via consecutive processes of pickering mini-emulsion polymerization for core-shell formation, and calcination of the sacrificial core. The resulting hollow composite particles have mono-layered shells. The morphology and size characteristics of synthesized composite particles were investigated, using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements.

본 연구에서는 타이로신이 풍부한 펩타이드, Tyr-Tyr-Leu-Tyr-Tyr (YYLYY)를 이용하여 금 나노입자를 담지한 균일한 금-펩타이드 계층적 초분자 구조체의 합성에 대해 연구하였다. 펩타이드의 광가교 반응을 통해 다이타이로신 결합으로 자기조립된 펩타이드 나노입자를 합성하였고, 타이로신의 생체 광물화 특성을 이용하여 금-펩타이드 하이브리드 나노입자를 친환경적 방법으로 합성하였다. 합성된 금-펩타이드 하이브리드 나노입자는 투과 전자 현미경(TEM), 주사투과 전자 현미경(SEM), 동적 광산란(DLS), 자외선-가시광선 분광광도계(UV-Vis spectroscopy), 에너지 분산 X선 분광법(STEM-EDS), X선 회절 분석법(XRD)을 통해 분석하였다. 또한 합성된 금-펩타이드 하이브리드 나노입자는 메틸렌블루의 환원 반응에서 13.4 × 10-3 s-1의 반응속도 상수를 가지는 촉매 특성을 확인하였다.

During mitosis. the proper segregation of duplicated chromosomes is corrdinated by a spindle check-point. The bifurcated spindle checkpoint blocks cell cycle progression at metaphase by monitoring unattached kinetochores and inhibits mitotic exit in response to the misorientation of the mitotic spin- dle Ibd1p/Bfa1p is a spindle checkpoint regulator of budding yeast in the Bub2p checkpoint pathway for mitotic exit and its disruption abolishes mitotic arrest when proper organization of the mitotic spin-dls inhibited. Ibd1p/Bfa1p localizes to the spindle pole body, a microtublue-organizing center in yeast, and its overexpression arrests the cell cycle in 80% of cells with an enlarged budy at mitosis and in 20 % of cells with multiple buds. In this study, we found that the C-terminus of Ibd1p/Bfa1p phys-ically interacts with Skp1p, a key component of SCF (Skp1/cullin/F-box) complex for ubiquition-medi-ated proteolysis of cel cycle regulatores as well as an evolutionally conserved kinetochore protein for cell cycle progression. A putative F-box motif was found in the C-terminus of Ibd1p/Bfa1p and its function was investigated by making mutants of conserved residues in the motif. These Ibd1p/Bfa1p mutants of a putative F-box interacted with SKp1p in vitro by two-hybrid assays as wild type Ibd1p/Bfa1p. Also these Ibd1p/Bfa1p utants displayed the overexpression phenotypes of wild type Ibd1p, when over-expressed under inducible promoters . These results suggest that a putative F-box motif of Ibd1p/Bfa1p is not essential for the interaction with SKp1p and its function in mitotic exit and cytokinesis.

콜로이달 실리카는 실리콘과 사파이어 웨이퍼의 정밀연마슬러리, 유-무기 하이브리드 코팅제, 정밀주조의 바인더 등 다양한 제품으로 사용되는 물질이다. 이러한 실리카 졸의 입자크기 및 분산 안정성은 웨이퍼의 표면, 코팅 막 혹은 벌크의 기계적, 화학적, 광학적 특성에 영향을 주기 때문에 정확한 측정값이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 제조사에서 제시한 입자 크기 및 표면 특성이 다른 8종류 실리카 졸의 부피 분율에 따라 입자 크기, 졸 점도 및 입자 전기영동이동도의 측정결과에 미치는 영향을 논의하였다. 높은 표면활성을 지닌 실리카 입자의 특성 및 실리카 졸의 희석에 의한 안정화 이온 농도의 변화로 인해 실리카의 측정 입자 크기와 이동도는 졸의 부피 분율 혹은 입자 크기에 따라 변한다. 60 nm 보다 작은 입자는 부피 분율이 증가함에 따라 측정된 입자 크기가 증가한 반면에, 그 보다 큰 입자에서는 측정된 입자 크기가 감소하였다. 12 nm와 같이 작은 입자는 부피 분율이 증가함에 따라 점도가 상승하면서 측정 입자의 이동도가 감소한 반면에 100 nm의 큰 입자는 0.048의 낮은 부피 분율까지 이동도가 증가하다가 그보다 높은 부피 분율부터 감소하였다.
