During adolescence the mutational period is characterized by the changes in the laryngeal structure, the length of the vocal cords, and a tone of voice. Usually, adolescents at 15 or 16 reach the voice of adults but the mutational period is sometimes delayed. Therefore, studies on the voice of adolescents between 16 ~ 18 right after the mutational period are required. Accordingly, this paper attempted to provide basic data about the normal standard for patients with voice disorders during this period by evaluating the vocal characteristics of males and females between 16 ~ 18 with an objective device bycomparing and analyzing them by sex and age. The study was conducted on a total of 60 subjects composed of each 10 subjects of each age. The vocal analysis was conducted by MPT (Maximum Phonation Time) measurement, sustained vowels and sentence reading. As for /a/ sustained vowels, fundamental frequency, hereinafter referred to as $F_0$, jitter, shimmer, noise-to-harmonic ratio, hereinafter referred to as NHR were measured by using the Multi-dimensional voice program (MDVP) among the Multi-Speech program of Computerized Speech Lab (Kay Elemetrics). The sentence reading, mean $F_0$, maximum $F_0$ and minimum $F_0$ were measured using the Real-Time Pitch (RTP) Model 5121 among the Multi-Speech program of Computerized Speech Lab (Kay Elemetrics). As a result, according to sex, there were statistically significant differences in $F_0$, jitter, shimmer, mean $F_0$, maximum $F_0$, and minimum $F_0$; and according to age, there were statistically significant differences in MPT. In conclusion, the voice of the adolescents between 16 ~ 18 reached the maturity levels of adults but the voice quality which can be considered on the scale of voice disorders showed transition to the voice of an adult during the mutational period.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure home health resource utilization using a Case-Mix Adjustor Model developed in the U.S. Method: The subjects of this study were 484 patients who had received home health care more than 4 visits during a 60-day episode at 31 home health care institutions. Data on the 484 patients had to be merged onto a. 60-day payment segment. Based on the results, the researcher classified home health resource groups (HHRG). Result: The subjects were classified into 34 HHRGs in Korea. Home health resource utilization according to clinical severity was in order of Minimum (C0) < 'Low (Cl) < 'Moderate (C2) < 'High (C3), according to dependency in daily activities was in order of Minimum (F0) < 'High (F3) < 'Medium (F2) < 'Low (Fl) < 'Maximum (F4). Resource utilization by HHRGs was the highest 564,735 won in group C0F0S2 (clinical severity minimum, dependency in daily activity minimum, service utilization moderate), and the lowest 97,000 won in group C2F3S1, so the former was 5.82 times higher than the latter. Conclusion: Resource utilization in home health care has become an issue of concern due to rising costs for home health care. The results suggest the need for more analytical attention on the utilization and expenditures for home care using a Case-Mix Adjustor Model.

Background The temporalis muscle flap transfer with fascia lata augmentation (FLA) is a promising method for smile reconstruction after facial palsy. International literature lacks a detailed anatomical analysis of the temporalis muscle (TPM) combined with fascia lata (FL) augmentation. This study aims to describe the muscle's properties and calculate the length of FL needed to perform the temporalis muscle flap transfer with FLA. Methods Twenty nonembalmed male (m) and female (f) hemifacial cadavers were dissected to investigate the temporalis muscle's anatomy. Results The calculated minimum length of FL needed is 7.03cm (f) and 5.99cm (m). The length of the harvested tendon is 3.16cm/± 1.32cm (f) and 3.18/± 0.73cm (m). The length of the anterior part of the temporalis muscle (aTPM) is 4.16/± 0.80cm (f) and 5.30/± 0.85cm (m). The length of the posterior part (pTPM) is 5.24/± 1.51cm (f) and 6.62/± 1.03cm (m). The length from the most anterior to the most posterior point (aTPMpTPM) is 8.60/± 0.98cm (f) and 10.18/± 0.79cm (m). The length from the most cranial point to the distal tendon (cTPMdT) is 7.90/± 0.43cm (f) and 9.79/± 1.11cm (m). Conclusions This study gives basic information about the temporalis muscle and its anatomy to support existing and future surgical procedures in their performance. The recommended minimum length of FL to perform a temporalis muscle transfer with FLA is 7.03cm for female and 5.99cm for male, and minimum width of 3 cm. We recommend harvesting some extra centimeters to allow adjusting afterward.

무선 센서 네트워크(Wireless Sensor Network : WSN)는 자율적으로 라우팅 경로를 구성하여 물리적으로 떨어진 지역의 데이터를 수집하는 무선망이다. 본 논문은 주기적으로 수집한 모든 데이터를 하나의 기지 노드로 전달하는 convergecast 환경에서 퓨전(fusion)을 반영한 라우팅 방법을 제안한다. 지금까지 대부분의 연구는 무퓨전(no-fusion)과 전퓨전(full-fusion)의 두 경우만을 다루었다. 제안하는 Fusion rate based Spanning Tree(FST)는 임의의 퓨전율 f ($0{\leq}f{\leq}1$)에서 총 전송 에너지 비용을 줄이는 라우팅 경로를 제공 한다. FST는 무퓨전(f = 0)과 전퓨전(f = 1)의 convergecast에서 각각 최적의 토폴로지인 최소 경로 트리(Shortest Path spanning Tree : SPT)와 최소 스패닝 트리(Minimum Spanning Tree : MST)를 제공하며, 임의의 f (0 < f < 1)에 대해서도 SPT나 MST보다 우수한 토폴로지를 제공한다. 시뮬레이션은 100-노드 WSN에서 모든 f ($0{\leq}f{\leq}1$)에 대해 FST의 총 길이가 평균적으로 MST보다 약 31%, SPT보다 약 8% 절약 됨을 보여준다. 따라서 우리는 FST가 WSN에서 매우 유용한 토폴로지임을 확인하였다.

A new line code design technique based on the BUDA(Binary Unit DSV and ASV) concept is introduced. The new line code called MB34 and designed by this new technique is of the minimum bandwidth, dc-free, and runlength limited. To confirm the performance of the new code, its power spectrum and eye pattern are obtained, wherein spectral nulls at dc(f=0) and Nyguist frequency (f=1/2Ts) are clearly identified. It is also discussed how the transmission errors can be detected by monitoring the DSV, the ASV, and the runlength.

본 연구는 53명의 음성장애 성인 여성과 53명의 정상음성 성인 여성의 진성구와 가성구 음역대 및 진성구-가성구 성구전환이 발생하는 구간을 비교하였다. 최고기본주파수(F0_MAX), 최고음성강도(I_MAX), 기본주파수범위(F0_RANGE) 및 음성강도범위(I_RANGE) 모두 음성장애군이 정상음성군에 비해 유의하게 낮았다. 또한 두 집단 모두 F0_MAX와 F0_RANGE가 진성구에 비해 가성구가 유의하게 높았다. I_MAX와 I_RANGE는 정상음성군에서 가성구가 진성구보다 유의하게 높았으나 음성장애군은 진성구와 가성구 간에 차이가 없었다. F0_MIN과 I_MIN은 두 집단 간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 진성구-가성구 성구전환이 발생하는 지점의 주파수는 음성장애군은 378.86Hz(F4#), 정상음성군은 557.79Hz(C5#)로 음성장애군이 유의하게 낮았다. 본 연구를 통해 음성장애가 있는 성인 여성의 진성구와 가성구 음역대 모두 정상음성 성인 여성에 비해 감소하여 성대가 고주파수에서 진동하기 어렵다는 것을 알 수 있다. 본 연구결과는 성인 여성 음성장애 화자의 진성구와 가성구의 VRP를 함께 살펴봄으로써 음성장애가 미치는 음향학적 특성을 파악하기 위한 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper, we have designed and fabricated hyperabrupt varactor diodes. Capacitance variations of hyperabrupt-doped varactor diodes are larger than those of uniform-doped varactor diodes. The measured reverse breakdown voltage of the fabricated varactor diodes was about 20 V. For the anode contact diameter of $50\;{\mu}m$, the maximum capacitance of the fabricated varactor diode was 2.1 pF and the minimum capacitance 0.44 pF. Therefore, the $C_{max}/C_{min}$ ratio was 4.77. Also, for the anode contact diameter of $60\;{\mu}m$, the maximum and minimum capacitances were 2.9 and 0.62 pF, respectively. And, thus, the $C_{max}/C_{min}$ ratio was 4.64.

Let f be a function which assigns a positive integer f(v) to each vertex v $\in$ V (G), let r, s and t be non-negative integers. An f-coloring of G is an edge-coloring of G such that each vertex v $\in$ V (G) has at most f(v) incident edges colored with the same color. The minimum number of colors needed to f-color G is called the f-chromatic index of G and denoted by ${\chi}'_f$(G). An [r, s, t; f]-coloring of a graph G is a mapping c from V(G) $\bigcup$ E(G) to the color set C = {0, 1, $\ldots$; k - 1} such that |c($v_i$) - c($v_j$ )| $\geq$ r for every two adjacent vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$, |c($e_i$ - c($e_j$)| $\geq$ s and ${\alpha}(v_i)$ $\leq$ f($v_i$) for all $v_i$ $\in$ V (G), ${\alpha}$ $\in$ C where ${\alpha}(v_i)$ denotes the number of ${\alpha}$-edges incident with the vertex $v_i$ and $e_i$, $e_j$ are edges which are incident with $v_i$ but colored with different colors, |c($e_i$)-c($v_j$)| $\geq$ t for all pairs of incident vertices and edges. The minimum k such that G has an [r, s, t; f]-coloring with k colors is defined as the [r, s, t; f]-chromatic number and denoted by ${\chi}_{r,s,t;f}$ (G). In this paper, we present some general bounds for [r, s, t; f]-coloring firstly. After that, we obtain some important properties under the restriction min{r, s, t} = 0 or min{r, s, t} = 1. Finally, we present some problems for further research.
