P2P를 이용한 스트리밍 서비스의 발달과 모바일 네트워크의 발달로 이동환경에서도 서비스 품질을 제공하려는 방안들이 제안되었다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 고속의 이동환경과 이기종 단말의 특성을 고려한 스트리밍 서비스들은 기존의 P2P가 갖는 이기적인 피어 문제로 인하여 피어간 대역폭 정체가 발생됨에 따라 원하는 품질을 제공받지 못하는 고질적인 문제를 갖고 있다. 또한 피어간의 최적화된 트래픽 지역화 방안을 갖지 않음으로 트래픽 증가에 따른 긴 지연 및 손실을 초래하기 쉬운 구조이다. 따라서 피어의 기여도를 이끌어내고 인센티브를 부여함으로써 서비스 차등을 제공함은 물론, 단말의 위치 정보에 따른 클러스터링 기법에 따른 피어선택을 제공하는 구조는 이용자와 서비스 제공자, 모두에게 서비스 품질과 효율성 측면에서 만족을 줄 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 피어의 기여와 이용자 단말의 위치에 따른 비용이 적용된 피어 선택에 따른 최적의 자원 배분 기법을 제안하며 이를 이용한 방법이 LTE와 같은 환경에서 보다 적응적이고 이용자의 서비스 만족을 높일 수 있다.

ATM과 같은 고속 패킷교환 망의 도입은 일정한 화질을 갖는 동안 동영상 서비스를 가능하게 하였다. 망 자원 사용의 효율성과 화질 사이의 타협이 절실히 요구되는 현 상황에서, ATM Forum과 ITU-T에서 정한 고정된 트래픽 기술자(Traffic Descriptor)로는 이를 만족시킬 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 동영상 세션을 발생된 트래픽에 따라 시간적으로 분할하여 각 구간에서 발생되는 트래픽을 효율적으로 기술할 수 있는 트래픽 기술자를 설정한 후, 망과의 협상을 통해 망 자원을 재할당하고 재할당된 자원에 트래픽을 적응시키는 고속 자원 재할당 프로토콜(Fast Resource Reallocation Protocol: FRRP)을 제안한다. 또한 FRRP가 효율적으로 운용될 수 있는, MPEG 부호화 알고리즘과 망 제어가 통합된 시스템 모델을 제안하고 실제 동영상 트래픽(Star Wars)을 사용한 시뮬레이션에 의해 셀 손실율 관점에서 FRRP의 성능 평가를 수행한다. 실험 결과는 고정된 트래픽 기술자 사용 시 발생하는 셀 손실율의 5∼35% 정도만을 나타내었다.

ABLB (alternate binaural loudness balance) test is one of the medical assessments to diagnose detailed lesion of sensory-neural hearing loss based on a recruitment phenomenon. However, current ABLB audiometry takes an operational model, so called face-to-face model, in which model one audiometrist can assess only one subject at a time. As a result, this face-to-face model leads to expensive audiometrist's labor cost and lengthy wait when there exist many subjects. As a solution, this paper suggests an ABLB audiometry system supporting one-to-many model in which model an audiometrist enables to assess several subjects concurrently. By providing such capabilities as real-time transfer of assessment result, video monitoring of subject and video chat, this solution can provide same effect as face-to-face model but overcome weakness of the existing face-to-face model.

A total of 18 sows with an average body weight (BW) of 211.6 kg (within 24 h after farrowing) were used for a 5-week experiment to determine the effects of the dietary valine : lysine (V : L) ratios on the performance and fecal score in lactating sows and litters. Sows were raised in individual pens and assigned to one of three experimental diets consisting of different V : L ratios (0.83, 0.85, and 0.88%). Sows BW was improved with the 0.85% V : L ratio compared to the 0.83 and 0.88%. However, no significant difference was observed for BW loss, average daily feed intake, back fat thickness and days to return to estrus among the three treatment groups during the experiment period. Furthermore, the growth performance of the piglets, the weaning weight, was improved in the group receiving the diet with the 0.85% V : L ratio compared to the 0.83 and 0.88%. Moreover, the average daily gain of the piglets was increased when the V : L ratio was 0.88% compared to 0.83 and 0.85%. The fecal score of the sows was better (p > 0.05) when the V : L ratio was 0.85% compared to the V : L ratio of 0.83%. In the piglets, the V : L ratios 0.88 and 0.85% had a better fecal score compared to the V : L ratio of 0.83% at day 14. In conclusion, the V : L ratio had no effect on the gut microflora shown by the fecal scores of the sows during lactation.

The core intention to undertake this experiment for a period of 21 days is to evaluate the effect of salicylic acid (SA) supplemented diet on the performance and blood metabolites of sows and their litters. Sows weighing 208.5 ± 18.34kg and their neonates were used. From day 114 of gestation to 21st day of lactation(weaning), ten multiparous sows (n = 5/treatment) (Landrace × Yorkshire) were assigned randomly into one of two treatments: CON (basal diet) and TRT (CON + 0.05% SA). There was no significant difference in the body weight, backfat thickness, backfat loss, and body condition score in SA treated sows compared to sows fed the CON diet. However, the bodyweight of sow was dramatically reduced by an average of 16kg from farrowing to weaning time. The dietary inclusion of SA in the sow diet slightly improved the survival rate (p = 0.065) and showed a higher body weight (p = 0.009) in piglets. However, there was no significant difference in red blood cell, Fe, Hematocrit, and Hb concentrations between CON and TRT sows' groups, but the total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) was significantly reduced in sows from the TRT group compared with the CON group from the beginning to weaning. The outcome of this trial shows that dietary addition of SA on sows diet from early lactation could increase the birth weight and TIBC of neonates at the end of the trial.

Globally, agriculture is one of the largest consumers and polluters of water resources, contributing to the unsustainable use of limited water resources. To reduce the resource use and environmental footprints associated with current and future food systems, researchers and policy makers have recommended the transition to sustainable and healthier diets and the reduction of food loss and waste along the food supply chain. However, there is limited information on the synergistic effects and trade-offs of adopting the two measures. In this study, we assessed the water-saving potential of the two measures in South Korea using environmentally extended input-output relying on the EXIOBASE database for the reference year 2020, along with scenario analysis to model the potential outcomes. Specifically, we analyzed scenarios where meat consumption was reduced by 30% and 50% and in combination with a 50% reduction in food waste at the consumption stage for each scenario. According to our findings, by considering individual measures of dietary change and food waste reduction, shifting to a diet with 30% and 50% less meat consumption could lead to reduction in water footprint by 6.9% and 7.5%, respectively, while 50% reduction in food waste at the consumption stage could save about 14% of water footprint. However, the synergistic effects of the two measures such as 30% less meat consumption and 50% food waste reduction, and 50% less meat consumption and 50% food waste reduction result to 20% and 24% reductions in water footprint, respectively. Moreover, our findings also showed that increasing food consumption with high environmental impacts could promote resources use inefficiency when waste occurs. Thus, policy strategies that address synergistic effects of both dietary change and food waste reduction should be strengthened to achieve sustainable food system. International and national policies can increase resource efficiency by utilizing all available reduction potentials while considering strategies interactions.

As a series of fundamental researches on the development of an automatic identification monitoring system for fishing gear. Firstly, the study on the installation method of automated identification buoy for the coastal improvement net fishing net with many loss problems on the west coast was carried out. Secondly, the study was conducted find out how to install an automatic identification buoy for coastal gill net which has the highest loss rate among the fisheries. GPS for fishing was used six times in the coastal waters around Seogwipo city in Jeju Island to determine the developmental status and underwater behavior to conduct a field survey. Next, a questionnaire was administered in parallel on the type of loss and the quantity and location of fishing gear to be developed and the water transmitter. In the field experiment, the data collection was possible from a minimum of 13 hours, ten minutes to a maximum of 20 hours and ten minutes using GPS, identifying the development status and underwater behavior of the coastal gillnet fishing gear. The result of the survey showed that the loss of coastal net fishing gear was in the following order: net (27.3%), full fishing gear (24.2%), buoys, and anchors (18.2%). The causes were active algae (50.0%), fish catches (33.3%) and natural disasters (12.5%). To solve this problem, the installation method is to attach one and two electronic buoys to top of each end of the fishing gear, and one underwater transmitter at both ends of the float line connected to the anchor. By identifying and managing abnormal conditions such as damage or loss of fishing gear due to external factors such as potent algae and cutting of fishing gear, loss of fishing gear can be reduced. If the lost fishing gear is found, it will be efficiently collected.

A diversified and concentrative approach of methylation player can be one of the most powerful studies in the understanding of global epigenetic modifications. Previous studies have suggested that DNA methylation contributes to transcriptional silencing through the several DNA methylation-mediated repression systems by hypermethylation, including methyltransferases (DNMTs), DNA methyltransferase association protein 1 (DMAPl), methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD), and histone deacetylases (HDACs). Assembly of these regulatory protein complexes act sequentially, reciprocally, and interdependently on the newly composed DNA strand through S phase. Therefore, these protein complexes have a role in coupling DNA replication to the designed turn-off system in genome. In this study, we attempted to address the role of DNA methylation by the functional analysis of the methyltransferase molecule, we described the involvement of DMAP1 and DNMTs in cell divistion and the effect of their loss. We also described distinct patterns that DMAP1 and DNMTs are spatially reorganized and displaced from condensing chromosomes as cells progress through mitosis in HeLa cell, COS7, and HIH3T3 cell cycle progressions. DNMT1, DNMT3b, and DMAP1 do not stably contact the genetic material during chromosome compaction and repressive expression. These finding show that the loss of activities of DNMTs and DMAP1 occure stage specifically during the cell cycle, may contribute to the integral balance of global DNA methylation. This is consistent with previous studies resulted in decreased histone acetyltransferases and HDACs, and differs from studies resulted in increased histone methyltransferases. Our results suggest that DNA methylation by DNMTs and DMAP1 during mitosis acts to antagonize hypermethylation by which this mark is epigenetical mitotic-specific methylation.

Clostridium difficile toxin A causes acute gut inflammation in animals and humans. It is known to downregulate the tight junctions between colonic epithelial cells, allowing luminal contents to access body tissues and trigger acute immune responses. However, it is not yet known whether this loss of the barrier function is a critical factor in the progression of toxin A-induced pseudomembranous colitis. We previously showed that NADH:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) KO (knockout) mice spontaneously display weak gut inflammation and a marked loss of colonic epithelial tight junctions. Moreover, NQO1 KO mice exhibited highly increased inflammatory responses compared with NQO1 WT (wild-type) control mice when subjected to DSS-induced experimental colitis. Here, we tested whether toxin A could also trigger more severe inflammatory responses in NQO1 KO mice compared with NQO1 WT mice. Indeed, our results show that C. difficile toxin A-mediated enteritis is significantly enhanced in NQO1 KO mice compared with NQO1 WT mice. The levels of fluid secretion, villus disruption, and epithelial cell apoptosis were also higher in toxin A-treated NQO1 KO mice compared with WT mice. The previous and present results collectively show that NQO1 is involved in the formation of tight junctions in the small intestine, and that defects in NQO1 enhance C. difficile toxin A-induced acute inflammatory responses, presumably via the loss of epithelial cell tight junctions.
