Bluetooth technology is essentially a method for wireless connectivity of a diverse set of devices ranging from PDAs, mobile phone, notebook computers, to another equipments, The bluetooth system both point-to point connection and point-to multipoint connection. In point-to multipoint connection, the channel is shared among several bluetooth devices. Two or more devices sharing the same channel form a piconet. There one master device and up to seven active slave devices in a piconet. The radio operates in the unlicensed 2.45GHz ISM band. This allows users who travel world-wide to use bluetooth equipments anywhere. Since the link is based on frequency-hop spread spectrum, multiple channels can exist at the same time. The bluetooth standard ha s been suggested that bluetooth equipments can be used in the short-range, maximum 100 meters. It has been defined that the time takes to setup and establish a bluetooth connection among devices is 10 seconds. It is a long time and may be a cause to lose a chance of finding other non-fixed devices. We propose a routing protocols for scatternets which can be used to control a mobile units(MUs) in this network. The proposed routing protocol is composed of two kinds of bluetooth information, access point(AP) and MU.

A growing number of people shows deep interests in healthcare and treatments for the elderly with increasing their population. Contrary to general adults, old people have their own physiological and pathological characteristics. Therefore, treatments for the elderly should be different form those for others in younger generation. Alimentotherapy, which means the treatment or prevention by means of food, is one of the best way to deal with geriatrics that are chronic, multiple. Korea has its tradition and plenty of information in this field. Even in the early ChoSun Dynasty, when people suffered from lack of proper medical care, physicians used dietary prescriptions as active treatments, Therefore, we can find lots of cases in "Hyangyak-jibseogbang" and "Euibangyoochui" which are medical books published at that time. After that, a specialized alimentotherapy book, "Sikryochanyo" was written based on that kind of total medical volumes. With development of society, economy. and medical science, alimentotherapy has grown remarkably. Unlike in the early Chosun Dynasty, it was used positively for promoting general health condition and practiced as supportive method for medication in the late Chosun Dynasty. Considering the characteristics of the elderly, alimentotherapy is the most effective way to keep them healthy and can also used with medication.

The presence of polyphosphate phosphohydrolase (PPPH) and tripolyphosphate phosphohydrolase (TPPH) in Chlorella ellipsoidea were confirmed from the cell-free extract of the algal cells and three forms of PPPH were isolated, purified, and measured Km-Vmax value and inhibitory effect by metal ions, respectively. PPPH was most active at pH7.2, whereas TPPH at pH 7.6. Both enzymes exhibited their maximum activity at $37^{\circ}C$. For the manifestation of catalytic activity, divalent, divalent metal ions are needed, and the best activator for both enzymes was $Co^{++}\;ions\;(10^{-3}M)$. These enzymes were inhibited by $Hg^{++}\;ions\;(10^{-3}M)$ considerably. PPPH from Chlorella ellipsoidea was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-25, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, and some properties of the three different fraction with PPPH activity $(PPPH_1,\;PPPH_2,\;and\;PPPH_3)$ were found, i.e, PPPH has multiple form. The Km values of $PPPH_1,\;PPPH_2,\;and\;PPPH_3$ obstained were $6.25{\times}10^{-4}M,\;10^{-4}M-4/M,\;and\;3.33{times}10^{-4}M$ and Vmax were 3.33 mM/min, 3.33 mM/min, and 2.67 mM/min, respectively. It was shown that the types of inhibition of $Hg^{++} on the activities of three forms of PPPH were competitive inhibition.

There has been growing concern about the toxicity of phthalate esters. Phthalate esters are being used widely for the production of perfume, nail varnish, hairsprays and other personal/cosmetic uses. Recently, exposure to phthalates has been assessed by analyzing urine for their metabolites. The parent phthalate is rapidly metabolized to its monoester (the active metabolite) and also glucuronidated, then excreted. The objective of this study is to evaluate the toxicity of phthalic acid (PA), which is the final common metabolic form of phthalic acid esters (PAEs). The individual PA isomers are extensively employed in the synthesis of synthetic agents, for example isophthalic acid (IPA), and terephthalic acid (TPA), which have very broad applications in the preparation of phthalate ester plasticizers and components of polyester fiber, film and fabricated items. There is a broad potential for exposure by industrial workers during the manufacturing process and by the general public (via vehicle exhausts, consumer products, etc). This review suggests that PA shows in vitro and in vivo toxicity (mutagenicity, developmental toxicity, reproductive toxicity, etc.). In addition, PA seems to be a useful biomarker for multiple exposure to PAEs in humans.

A Sulfolobus-E. coli shuttle vector for an efficient expression of the target gene in S. acidocaldarius strain was constructed. The plasmid-based vector pSM21 and its derivative pSM21N were generated based on the pUC18 and Sulfolobus cryptic plasmid pRN1. They carried the S. solfataricus P2 pyrEF gene for the selection marker, a multiple cloning site (MCS) with C-terminal histidine tag, and a constitutive promoter of the S. acidocaldarius gdhA gene for strong expression of the target gene, as well as the pBR322 origin and ampicillin-resistant gene for E. coli propagation. The advantage of pSM21 over other Sulfolobus shuttle vectors is that it contains a MCS and a histidine tag for the simple and easy cloning of a target gene as well as one-step purification by histidine affinity chromatography. For successful expression of the foreign genes, two genes from archaeal origins (PH0193 and Ta0298) were cloned into pSM21N and the functional expression was examined by enzyme activity assay. The recombinant PH0193 was successfully expressed under the control of the gdhA promoter and purified from the cultures by His-tag affinity chromatography. The yield was approximately 1 mg of protein per liter of cultures. The enzyme activity measurements of PH0913 and Ta0298 revealed that both proteins were expressed as an active form in S. acidocaldarius. These results indicate that the pSM21N shuttle vector can be used for the functional expression of foreign archaeal genes that form insoluble aggregates in the E. coli system.

Multiple Mobile Robots System (MMRS) has shown many attractive features in lots of real-world applications that motivate their rapid and wide diffusion. In MMRS, the Cooperative Localization (CL) is the basis and premise of its high-performance task. However, the statistical characteristics of the system noise should be already known in traditional CL algorithms, which is difficult to satisfy in actual MMRS because of the numerous of disturbances form the complex external environment. So the CL accuracy will be reduced. To solve this problem, an improved Adaptive Active Cooperative Localization (A²CL) algorithm based on information optimization strategy for MMRS is proposed in this manuscript. In this manuscript, an adaptive information fusion algorithm based on the variance component estimation under Extended Kalman filter (VCEKF) method for MMRS is introduced firstly to enhance the robustness and accuracy of information fusion by estimating the covariance matrix of the system noise or observation noise in real time. Besides, to decrease the effect of observation uncertainty on CL accuracy further, an observation optimization strategy based on information theory, the Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategy, is used here to maximize the information amount from observations. And semi-physical simulation experiments were carried out to verity the A²CL algorithm's performance finally. Results proved that the presented A²CL algorithm based on information optimization strategy for MMRS cannot only enhance the CL accuracy effectively but also have good robustness.

콘크리트는 균열손상으로 인하여 구조적 품질이 저하되며 결국, 이는 구조물에 심각한 영향을 준다. 이러한 손상을 검사하는 방법으로 육안으로 확인하거나 비파괴 시험법을 주로 이용하고 있으며, 비파괴시험법은 다양한 센서를 이용한다. 이러한 대부분의 센서는 1축에 대한 측정을 하기 때문에 방향성이 불규칙한 균열 손상을 측정하기에는 어려움이 많다. 또한, 화재가 발생하면 이러한 센서는 사용할 수가 없다. 화재발생시 사용할 수 있는 센서는 열전대이며, 이러한 센서는 온도측정을 위해 사용되므로 화재손상으로 발생된 주요 부재 및 구조물의 변형을 측정할 수 없다. 본 연구는 3축 가속도센서와 열전대 센서의 전기 저항적 특성을 이용하여, 외력 및 화재발생으로 구조물의 손상 전과 손상 후의 안전성을 검토할 수 있는 다기능센서를 개발하기 위한 기초적 연구이다.

ePUB은 국제전자출판포럼(IDPF)에서 2009년 표준으로 발표된 이후로 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 전자책 포맷중 하나이다. ePUB은 ZIP Archive 형식으로 압축되어 있고, 내부적으로 OCF라 불리는 표준포맷으로 구조화되어 있다. 현재 국내외적으로 ePUB에 DRM을 적용하여 전자책 서비스가 활발하게 이루어지고 있으나 ePUB를 하나의 키로 암호화하고 있어 미리보기 기능 등과 같은 산업계의 다양한 요구 사항을 충족하지 못하고 있는 상황이다. 본 논문에서는 ePUB을 기반으로 한 전자책 콘텐츠를 단순하게 하나의 키로 암호화하지 않고, 다중 키 암호화 방식을 적용하여 보다 다양한 사업 모델의 적용이 가능한 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 다중 키 방식을 적용한 암호화 기법은 이를 위한 라이선스 발급 및 전송 기법, 그리고 eBook 리더에서 복호화하여 활용하는 기법과 병행하여 실제로 응용 가능한 형태로 제안한다. 제안된 다중 키 암호화 방식을 적용하게 되면 ePUB기반의 전자책 콘텐츠의 부분적 열람 기능이 가능하고, 이를 통하여 다양한 서비스 모델에 적용할 수 있으며, 단일 키 암호화 방식보다 보안성을 높일 수 있다.

This paper proposes a novel method for transporting various types of user traffic effectively over the next generation network called integrated services digital network 3 (ISDN3) (or quantum network) using quantum packets. Basically, a quantum packet comprises one or more 53-byte quanta as generated by a "quantumization" process. While connection-oriented traffic is supported by fixed-size quantum packets each with one quantum to emulate circuit switching, connectionless traffic (e.g., IP packets and active packets) is carried by variable-size quantum packets with multiple quanta to support store-and-forward switching/routing. Our aim is to provide frame-like or datagram-like services while enabling cell-based multiplexing. The quantum packet method also establishes a flexible and extensible framework that caters for future packetization needs while maintaining backward compatibility with ATM. In this paper, we discuss the design of the quantum packet method, including its format, the "quantumization" process, and support for different types of user traffic. We also present an analytical model to evaluate the consumption of network resources (or network costs) when quantum packets are employed to transfer loss-sensitive data using three different approaches: cut-through, store-and-forward and ideal. Close form mathematical expressions are obtained for some situations. In particular, in terms of network cost, we discover two interesting equivalence phenomena for the cut-through and store-and-forward approaches under certain conditions and assumptions. Furthermore, analytical and simulation results are presented to study the system behavior. Our analysis provides valuable insights into the. design of the ISDN3/quantum network.
