Objectives: To evaluate the effects of three acids on the microhardness of set mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and root dentin, and cytotoxicity on murine macrophage. Materials and Methods: OrthoMTA (BioMTA) was mixed and packed into the human root dentin blocks of 1.5 mm diameter and 5 mm height. Four groups, each of ten roots, were exposed to 10% citric acid (CA), 5% glycolic acid (GA), 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and saline for five minutes after setting of the OrthoMTA. Vickers surface microhardness of set MTA and dentin was measured before and after exposure to solutions, and compared between groups using one-way ANOVA with Tukey test. The microhardness value of each group was analyzed using student t test. Acid-treated OrthoMTA and dentin was examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Cell viability of tested solutions was assessed using WST-8 assay and murine macrophage. Results: Three test solutions reduced microhardness of dentin. 17% EDTA demonstrated severe dentinal erosion, significantly reduced the dentinal microhardness compared to 10% CA (p = 0.034) or 5% GA (p = 0.006). 10% CA or 5% GA significantly reduced the surface microhardness of set MTA compared to 17% EDTA and saline (p < 0.001). Acid-treated OrthoMTA demonstrated microporous structure with destruction of globular crystal. EDTA exhibited significantly more cellular toxicity than the other acidic solutions at diluted concentrations (0.2, 0.5, 1.0%). Conclusions: Tested acidic solutions reduced microhardness of root dentin. Five minute's application of 10% CA and 5% GA significantly reduced the microhardness of set OrthoMTA with lower cellular cytotoxicity compared to 17% EDTA.

Let D be an integral domain, P be a nonzero prime ideal of D, $\{P_{\alpha}{\mid}{\alpha}{\in}{\mathcal{A}}\}$ be a nonempty set of prime ideals of D, and $\{I_{\beta}{\mid}{\beta}{\in}{\mathcal{B}}\}$ be a nonempty family of ideals of D with ${\cap}_{{\beta}{\in}{\mathcal{B}}}I_{\beta}{\neq}(0)$. Consider the following conditions: (i) If $P{\subseteq}{\cup}_{{\alpha}{\in}{\mathcal{A}}}P_{\alpha}$, then $P=P_{\alpha}$ for some ${\alpha}{\in}{\mathcal{A}}$; (ii) If ${\cap}_{{\beta}{\in}{\mathcal{B}}}I_{\beta}{\subseteq}P$, then $I_{\beta}{\subseteq}P$ for some ${\beta}{\in}{\mathcal{B}}$. In this paper, we prove that D satisfies $(i){\Leftrightarrow}D$ is a generalized weakly factorial domain of ${\dim}(D)=1{\Rightarrow}D$ satisfies $(ii){\Leftrightarrow}D$ is a weakly Krull domain of dim(D) = 1. We also study the t-operation analogs of (i) and (ii).

Let C be a nonsingular projective curve of genus ${\geq}2$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. For a point P in C, the Weierstrass semigroup H(P) is defined as the set of non-negative integers n for which there exists a rational function f on C such that the order of the pole of f at P is equal to n, and f is regular away from P. A point P in C is referred to as a weak Galois-Weierstrass point if P is a Weierstrass point and there exists a Galois morphism ${\varphi}:C{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{p}}^1$ such that P is a total ramification point of ${\varphi}$. In this paper, we investigate the number of weak Galois-Weierstrass points of which the Weierstrass semigroups are generated by two positive integers.

UPnP(Universal Plug and Play) 홈네트워크에서 무선랜은 위치에 상관없이 쉽게 설치하여 사용할 수 있어 사용자에게 편의성을 제공 하지만, AP(Access Point)는 해킹을 통한 MAC 주소 및 SSID(Service Set Identifier), WEP(Wired Equivalent Privacy)의 암호를 쉽게 알 수 있어 보안에 취약하다. 또한 UPnP 는 TCP/IP 를 사용하는 인터넷 표준과 기술을 기반으로 하고 있고 HTTP, UDP, SSDP, GENA 등의 표준 프로토콜을 사용하기에 보안 대책에 취약점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 댁외에서 UPnP 홈네트워크에 사용되는 AP 를 해킹하고, 해킹한 AP 정보를 이용하여 UPnP 홈네트워크의 디바이스 정보를 취득하고, 댁내 컨트롤 포인트(Control Point)를 해킹하여 MAC 주소 및 IP 주소를 댁외 컨트롤 포인터로 변조하여 UPnP 홈네트워크 디바이스를 제어하는 실험으로 UPnP 홈네트워크 보안의 취약점에 대해 분석한다.

For a connected graph G of order $n$, an ordered set $S=\{u_1,u_2,{\cdots},u_k\}$ of vertices in G is a linear edge geodetic set of G if for each edge $e=xy$ in G, there exists an index $i$, $1{\leq}i$ < $k$ such that e lie on a $u_i-u_{i+1}$ geodesic in G, and a linear edge geodetic set of minimum cardinality is the linear edge geodetic number $leg(G)$ of G. A graph G is called a linear edge geodetic graph if it has a linear edge geodetic set. The linear edge geodetic numbers of certain standard graphs are obtained. Let $g_l(G)$ and $eg(G)$ denote the linear geodetic number and the edge geodetic number, respectively of a graph G. For positive integers $r$, $d$ and $k{\geq}2$ with $r$ < $d{\leq}2r$, there exists a connected linear edge geodetic graph with rad $G=r$, diam $G=d$, and $g_l(G)=leg(G)=k$. It is shown that for each pair $a$, $b$ of integers with $3{\leq}a{\leq}b$, there is a connected linear edge geodetic graph G with $eg(G)=a$ and $leg(G)=b$.

The purpose of this study is to provide improvements and standards of trial lens, in a situation that there is a lack of standards of trial lens set that have been used for self-conscious refraction test after helm refraction test at about 5,000 opticians, ophthalmologic clinics and hospitals, and contact-lens shops, that there is a lot of discrepancies between refraction specified and the actual power, and that there is no regulation of optical tolerance error. For the study, opticians who have used Trial lens set were asked to participate in a questionnaire survey through continuing education, and divided into those who have used domestic lens and those who have used imported lens, 5 opticians each for less than 5 years, 5 to 10 years, more than 10 years. The measurement of both refraction specified and the actual diopter was compared to Japan Industrial Standards(JIS T4402). As a result of comparative analysis, more than 80% of respondents have had reliability on the refraction of trial lens they had used, indicating that they have never measured the refraction specified and the actual diopter after buying them. Besides, Korean Industrial Standards(KS P4402) has been imperfect in diopter range since it was legislated in 1979. More than 95% of respondents have been unsatisfied with optometry. Also, it has indicated that refraction error is more frequent in long-term-used trial lens. The conclusion is that it is necessary to standardize trial lens set and that it is required to add lens to lens set provided under KS P4402. Moreover, it is necessary to have supervisory agency for a standardization of trial lens. I hope that both domestic lens and imported lens, as in German and Japan, will be tested to find whether they meet optical tolerance error and standard trial lens will be distributed. Good optic inspection is required for the improvement and management of eye health and optical function, and the same standard trial lens set should be used. whoever is tested. Also, I hope that trial lens set will be specified within standards and tolerance error.

The Boolean rank of a nonzero $m{\times}n$ Boolean matrix A is the least integer k such that there are an $m{\times}k$ Boolean matrix B and a $k{\times}n$ Boolean matrix C with A = BC. We investigate the structure of linear transformations T : $\mathbb{M}_{m,n}{\rightarrow}\mathbb{M}_{p,q}$ which preserve Boolean rank. We also show that if a linear transformation preserves the set of Boolean rank 1 matrices and the set of Boolean rank k matrices for any k, $2{\leq}k{\leq}$ min{m, n} (or if T strongly preserves the set of Boolean rank 1 matrices), then T preserves all Boolean ranks.

This paper proposes an implicit method for computing the minimum cost feedback vertex set for a graph. For an arbitrary graph, a Boolean function is derived, whose satisfying assignments directly correspond to feedback vertex sets of the graph. Importantly, cycles in the graph are never explicitly enumerated, but rather, are captured implicitly in this Boolean function. This function is then used to determine the minimum cost feedback vertex set. Even though computing the minimum cost satisfying assignment for a Boolean function remains an NP-hard problem, it is possible to exploit the advances made in the area of Boolean function representation in logic synthesis to tackle this problem efficiently in practice for even reasonably large sized graphs. The algorithm has obvious application in flip-flop selection for partial scan. The algorithm proposed in this paper is the first to obtain the MFVS solutions for many benchmark circuits.

A technical system generally comprise a number of subsystems and components that are interconnected in such a way that the system is able to perform a set of required function. Because of the complex system structure with serial, parallel and bridged connections, some certain subsystems or components are more critical than the others. The main concern of a reliability engineer is to identify potential failures and to prevent these failures from occurring. In order to prevent fatal failures, proper inspections and maintenance actions for each component are required Considering above objectives of reliability engineers and characteristics of a practical system, several practical method for evaluating system and component reliabilities have developed namely Birnbaum's and Fussell & Vesely's measures. However there are several critical weaknesses in traditional calculation process as the target system gets larger. In this paper, a new technique for calculating component's structural importance is proposed and compared to Birnbaum's with representative system examples (serial, parallel. k out of n, and bridge type).
