  • The recent deployment of RIA (Rich Internet Application) is often involved with the complex JavaScript code, which leads to the announcement of high performance JavaScript engines for its efficient execution. And the Sunspider benchmark is being widely used for the performance evaluation of these JavaScript engines. In this paper, we compare the execution methods of three high-performance JavaScript engines, Mozilla TraceMonkey, Google V8, and Apple SquirrelFish Extreme, and measure their performances using the SunSpider benchmark. We also evaluate the pros and cons of each engine, based on its execution method and the code characteristics of the SunSpider benchmarks.

  • The effects of chloroform extract from Lepidolaena tayiorii (L. tayiorii) on antifungal activity were investigated. The crude chloroform extract of L. tayiorii inhibited the growth of the Gram positive bacteria Bacillus subtilis ATCC 19659, (5 mm inhibition zone at $150{\mu}g/disc$) and the dermatophytic fungus Trichophyton mentagrophytes ATCC 28185, (6 mm inhibition zone at $150{\mu}g/disc$), and cytotoxic to P388 murine leukaemia cells ATCC CCL 46 P388D1, ($IC_{50}\;405.0{\mu}g/mL\;at\;150{\mu}g$/disc) and cytotoxic to BSC monkey kidney cells (@ 5 mg/mL, $150{\mu}g/disc;$ +++: 100% activity). We suppose that this crude chloroform extract of L. tayiorii is the strong antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities.

  • Neural decoding is important to recognize the user's intention for controlling a neuro-prosthetic hand. This paper proposes a real-time decoding method for multi-channel peripheral neural activity. Peripheral nerve signals were measured from the median and radial nerves, and motion artifacts were removed based on locally fitted polynomials. Action potentials were then classified using a k-means algorithm. The firing rate of action potentials was extracted as a feature vector and its dimensionality was reduced by a self-organizing feature map. Finally, a multi-layer perceptron was used to classify hand motions. In monkey experiments, all processes were completed within a real-time constrain, and the hand motions were recognized with a high success rate.

  • This paper proposes a novel image classification method based on few-shot learning, which is mainly used to solve model overfitting and non-convergence in image classification tasks of small datasets and improve the accuracy of classification. This method uses model structure optimization to extend the basic convolutional neural network (CNN) model and extracts more image features by adding convolutional layers, thereby improving the classification accuracy. We incorporated certain measures to improve the performance of the model. First, we used general methods such as setting a lower learning rate and shuffling to promote the rapid convergence of the model. Second, we used the data expansion technology to preprocess small datasets to increase the number of training data sets and suppress over-fitting. We applied the model to 10 monkey species and achieved outstanding performances. Experiments indicated that our proposed method achieved an accuracy of 87.92%, which is 26.1% higher than that of the traditional CNN method and 1.1% higher than that of the deep convolutional neural network ResNet50.

  • To assess the safety of playground equipments in the elementary schools of Taegu, a site visit was made to 117 elementary schools out of 119 schools between 1st and 30th of April 1991. Safety criteria were developed on the bases of Massachusetts' Playground Safety Check List, standard height of Korean children of 6-12 years old, and source book for designing playground equipments. There were eleven different kinds of playground equipments installed in 117 schools but the number of equipments was about 50-60% of the minimum requirement set by the Ministry of Education except chin-up bar. Among the installed equipments, 47.3% of swings, 16.6% of parallel bars, 20.0% of monkey bars, and 16.0% of slides were broken down. None of the swings, slides, seesaws, monkey bars, and sandboxes met the safety criteria to the full but 59.0 of chin-up bars, 31.4% of Parallel bars, and 13,5% of stumps met the criteria fully. The proportions of equipments that were dangerous for children to play on were 26.4% for slides, 20.0% for monkey bars, 11.6% for seesaws, 10.4% for parallel bars, 9.8% for sandboxes, 7.4% for swings and stumps, and 3.9% for chin-up bars. The rests were either in need of repair or broken down. It was revealed by this survey that the playground equipments were too short in number to meet the minimum requirement, designs and size were not standardized, and many of the equipments were involved with the risk of child accidents. Therefore, a safety standard for the playground equipments should be developed and the existing equipments should be repaired immediately.

  • Community-based ecotourism (CBE), if well-developed can be a practical approach for promoting socio-economic well-being and sustaining ecological resources. The growth and its development worldwide especially in developing economies is a welcome development. The study aimed at assessing the Boabeng-Fiema Monkey Sanctuary in Ghana, as an example of traditional conservation system of management that has ensured greater community participation, equity, inclusiveness, and multi-level stakeholder partnership. In-depth interviews with key informants and documentary analysis of relevant peer reviewed and grey literature were the main qualitative data collection used. Results revealed that majority of the interviewees support and value the current system of traditional management. The enforcement of rules and regulations and other cultural and religious practices were discussed by key informants. Opportunities for multiple livelihood strategies as a result of the CBE is seen as critical for increasing local's acceptance and participation. The remarkable growth of the sanctuary, as well as the increase in human population, has created a shortage of land for domestic and other commercial purposes which is identified as posing a major challenge to the sustenance of the sanctuary. The study recommends diversification of livelihood opportunities presented by the presence of the sanctuary like the introduction of homestay concept, craft making- wood carving, painting, artisan shops.

  • Recombinant plasmids harboring heterologous genes coding enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) and erythropoietin (EPO) were transfected and expressed in Drosophila melanogaster S2 cells. Stably transformed cell populations expressing EGFP or monkey EPO were isolated after 4 weeks of selection with hygromycin B. (omitted)
