Phloem network integrates cellular energy status into post-embryonic growth, and development by tight regulation of carbon allocation. Phloem development involves complicated coordination of cell fate determination, cell division, and terminal differentiation into sieve elements (SEs), functional conduit. All of these processes must be tightly coordinated, for optimization of systemic connection between source supplies and sink demands throughout plant life cycle, that has substantial impact on crop productivity. Despite its pivotal role, surprisingly, regulatory mechanisms underlying phloem development have just begun to be explored, and we recently identified a novel translational regulatory network involving RNA G-quadruplex and a zinc-finger protein, JULGI, for phloem development. From this perspective, we further discuss the role of RNA G-quadruplex on post-transcriptional control of phloem regulators, as a potential interface integrating spatial information for asymmetric cell division, and phloem development.

최근 병렬 시스템을 이용하여 공간 조인의 성능 방안에 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그렇지만 프로세서의 수가 증가할수록 병렬 처리에 의한 프로세서의 효율성은 급격히 떨어진다. 이것은 병렬 공간 조인을 수행할 경우 순차 공간 조인 보다 디스크 병목 현상과 메시지 전송 오버헤드가 심하게 발행하기 때문이다. 이 논문에서는 공유 디스크 구조에서 다중 프로세서의 디스크 동시 접근으로 인한 병목 현상을 환화하고, 메시지 전송을 최소화하기 위한 태스크 할당 기법을 제안하였다. 제안한 태스크 할당 기법을 두 가지 공간 조인 방법에 각각 적용하여 디스크 접근 횟수와 메시지 전송 횟수의 감소 효과를 실험으로 평가하였다. MIMD 구조 및 공유디스크 방식의 병렬 시스템에서의 다양한 실험에서 이 논문에서 제안한 준동적 태스크 할당 기법이 정적 할당과 동적 할당 기법에 비해 우수함을 보였다.

본 연구의 목적은 GIS를 이용하여 대기오염측정망의 적정성을 분석하는데 있다. 측정소 이력, 분포의 적정성, 주위의 토지이용상태의 분포현황 분석을 통하여 인접지역이거나 주변 토지이용상태가 유사할 경우 측정값의 변화추이가 유사하게 나타남을 알 수 있었으며 현재 대부분의 측정소가 주거지역에 설치되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 대기오염측정소 배치방법에 의한 측정소의 개수를 산정한 결과가 현재 설치되어 있는 측정소의 이전과 추가적인 설치가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 토지이용상태와의 상관분석을 통해 오염원에 대한 정확한 파악과 오염물질의 이동경로에 대한 추적을 통하여 도시계획사업수립 등에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

이동체 데이터베이스에서 이동체 궤적의 양은 엄청나게 많아서 기존의 단일 디스크 기반에서는 특정영역의 질의에 대한 빠른 응답과 처리율의 향상을 볼수 없다. 따라서 고성능 질의 처리를 위한 시스템의 성능 향상을 위해서는 병렬 처리 기법의 도입이 필요하다. 이런 병렬 처리 기법 중, 기존의 디클러스터링 방법에서는 시간이 지남에 따라 연속적으로 보고되는 이동체 특성을 고려하지 않고 있다. 그러므로 대용량 이동체 데이터에 대하여 고성능 질의 처리를 위한 새로운 디클러스터링 방법이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 대용량 이동체 데이터베이스에 대한 고성능 질의 처리를 위한 새로운 디클러스터링 정책을 제시하였다. 이동체 데이터의 MBB중 공간 좌표의 근접성만을 고려하여 하나의 SemiAllocation Disk 값을 설정하고 그 값과 시간 도메인을 다시 고려하여 근접성을 계산함으로써 디클러스터링을 할 수 있다. 또한 디스크별 Load Balancing을 고려하여 보다 정확한 디클러스터링 효과를 가지도록 하였다. 이와 같이 이동체의 특성을 고려한 새로운 디클러스터링 정책으로 시스템의 성능을 향상 시킬 수 있다.

Visible light communication (VLC) using optical sources which can be simultaneously utilized for illumination and communication is currently an attractive option for wireless personal area network. Improving the data rate in optical wireless communication system is challenging due to the limited bandwidth of the optical sources. In this paper, we design the singular value decomposition (SVD)-based multiplexing multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system to support two data streams in optical wireless channels. In order to improve the spectral efficiency, the rate adaptation using multi-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) is applied according to the channel condition and we propose the method to allocate the optical power, the offset and the size of modulation scheme theoretically under the constraints of the nonnegativity of the modulated signals, the aggregate optical power and the bit error rate (BER) requirement. The simulation results show that the proposed allocation method gives the better performance than the method to allocate the optical power equally for each data stream.

A competitive location problem in discrete space is computationally difficult to solve in general because of its combinatorial feature. In this paper, we address an alternative method for solving competitive location problems in discrete space, particularly employing deterministic allocation. The key point of the suggested method is to reducing the number of predefined potential facility sites associated with the size of problem by utilizing geometric concepts. The suggested method was applied to the existing broadband marketplace with increasing competition as an application. Specifically, we compared computational results and spatial configurations of two different sized problems: the problem with the original potential sites over the study area and the problem with the reduced potential sites extracted by a GIS-based geometric algorithm. The results show that the competitive location model with the reduced potential sites can be solved more efficiently, while both problems presented the same optimal locations maximizing customer capture.

In this paper, a distributed beamforming problem is considered in an amplify-and-forward (AF) wireless relay network consist of multiple source-destination pairs and relaying nodes. To exploit degree of freedom of the number of beamformers, in the first step, we proposed that the sources transmit their signals through orthogonal channels. During the second step, the relays transmit their received signals multiplied by complex weights to amplify and compensate for phase changes introduced by the backward channels through one common channel. The optimal beamforming vectors are obtained through minimization of the total relay transmit power while the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs) at the destinations are above certain thresholds to meet a quality of services (QoSs) level. In the numerical example, it is shown that the proposed scheme needs less transmit power for moderate network data rates than other schemes, such as space division multiplexing or time-division multiplexing scheme.

Depending on the type of Tx-Rx pairs, VHF Data Exchange System (VDES) for maritime communication is expected to employ the different frequency channels. Load imbalance between the different channels turns out to be a critical problem for the multi-hop communication using Ad-hoc Self-Organizing TDMA (ASO-TDMA) MAC protocol, which has been proposed to provide the connectivity between land station and remote ship stations. In order to handle the inter-channel load imbalance problem, we consider a model of the stochastic geomety in this paper. After analyzing the spatial reuse efficiency in each hop region by the given model, we show that the resource utility can be maximized by balancing the inter-channel traffic load with optimal resource allocation in each hop region.

In the Seoul metropolitan bus network, it may be necessary for a bus passenger to pick up a parcel, which has been purchased through e-commerce, at his or her convenient bus stop on the way to home or office. The flow-capturing location-allocation model can be applied to select pickup points for such bus stops so that they maximize the captured passenger flows, where each passenger flow represents an origin-destination (O-D) pair of a passenger trip. In this paper, we propose a fast heuristic algorithm to select pickup points using a large O-D matrix, which has been extracted from five million transportation card transactions. The experimental results demonstrate the bus stops chosen as pickup points in terms of passenger flow and capture ratio, and illustrate the spatial distribution of the top 20 pickup points on a map.

This study analyzes the interrelationship with air pollution quality and land used patterns, and analyzes the history and optimal allocation of TMS using GIS. Seasonal air pollution map are maded of TMS data in study area, and land used patterns based on Land Cover Classification Map are reclassified as residential area, commercial area, industrial area, traffic concentrated area, and non-Polluted area. Pollution sources can be identified through analyzing the correlation of air pollution and land used patterns by GIS spatial overlaying technique. Hence, the result shows that it coincides with the characteristics of conventional air pollution. Air pollution quality measured by TMS shows similar to that of its near stations or the same land used patterns, through the history and allocation analysis of TMS. Therefore, it is need to consider these characteristics in setting TMS positions in the future.
