Kashmir: 1947-59 : A case study of the role of the United Nations in the Pacific settlement of international disputes.

"The main purpose of this work is to present a complete and detailed account of the origins, evolution, nature, and consequences of title highly inflammable dispute, in the hope that It will contribute to a realistic appraisal of the problem. Special emphasis is given to the means used by the Security Council of the United Nation© in its attempt to solve this international dispute within the framework of the United Nations Charter, The writer’s primary reason for undertaking this research Is that the Kashmir dispute makes an excellent case study In examining and appraising the machinery and efficiency of the United Nations with regard to the pacific settle* sent of international disputes. Another reason is that the Kashmir conflict Is highly significant in terms of comprehending over-all Indo-Psklstan relations! relations which directly affect the destiny and welfare of 460 million people in South Asia* The future of these relations will in large part be determined by the outcome of the Kashmir dispute..."--Preface

Development of Augmented Reality Underground Facility Management System using Map Application Programming Interface and JavaScript Object Notation Communication

With the rapid development of IT in the modern society, various kinds of information such as smart information age are provided in real time regardless of time and place. Especially, various IT devices and mobile devices using the ubiquitous concept are being widely used in real life and helping to make life convenient. Currently, various ubiquitous services and management schemes are being tried in the government business field. This paper was performed to propose an augmented reality-based system construction and service environment plan for the management of underground facilities such as gas, electricity, communication, water supply, sewerage, heating, and oil pipelines. To do this, the author used Map API and JSON communication technique. JSON can be used in JavaScript programs without parsing or serialization. Also, JSON is a text-based way to represent JavaScript object literals, arrays, and scalar data. As a result, it can be transmitted in a format that can be interpreted in fields that utilize various types of data. Using this JSON, an augmented reality-based underground facility management system was implemented. In other words, it is a system that can find and modify the location of underground objects without drawing drawings in the field through communication between the tablet and the server. Especially, it suggested a method to provide and manage the location information of GIS (NGIS, KLIS) system and the facilities embedded in the underground, and attribute information by replacing the location mark used in existing underground facilities. Through the augmented reality based underground facility management system, it is expected to be effective in terms of practicality, economics, real - time network, information provision and management, and prevention of major accidents. In addition, it will be an effective method for updating and maintaining information related to underground facilities. Finally, by applying the augmented reality-based underground facility management system, it is possible to precisely measure the underground facility survey and condition for an existing buried pipe or a new public pipeline. Through augmented reality technology, it is possible to check the facilities of obstacles as if they were right in front of you. In addition, facility management, history management, and on-site management are possible at once, and it is characterized by convergence with other IT and quick decision-making by integrating the management system

Observation of a linear temperature dependence of the critical current density in a Ba_{0.63}K_{0.37}BiO_3 single crystal

For a Ba_{0.63}K_{0.37}BiO_3 single crystal with T_c=31 K, H_{c1}=750 Oe at 5 K, and dimensions 3x3x1 mm^3, the temperature and field dependences of magnetic hysteresis loops have been measured within 5-25 K in magnetic fields up to 6 Tesla. The critical current density is J_c(0)=1.5 x 10^5 A/cm^2 at zero field and 1 x 10^5 A/cm^2 at 1 kOe at 5 K. J_c decreases exponentially with increasing field up to 10 kOe. A linear temperature dependence of J_c is observed below 25 K, which differs from the exponential and the power-law temperature dependences in high-Tc superconductors including the BKBO. The linear temperature dependence can be regarded as an intrinsic effect in superconductors.Comment: RevTex, Physica C Vol. 341-348, 729 (2000

Dynamic Joint Scheduling of Anycast Transmission and Modulation in Hybrid Unicast-Multicast SWIPT-Based IoT Sensor Networks

The separate receiver architecture with a time- or power-splitting mode, widely used for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), has a major drawback: Energy-intensive local oscillators and mixers need to be installed in the information decoding (ID) component to downconvert radio frequency (RF) signals to baseband signals, resulting in high energy consumption. As a solution to this challenge, an integrated receiver (IR) architecture has been proposed, and, in turn, various SWIPT modulation schemes compatible with the IR architecture have been developed. However, to the best of our knowledge, no research has been conducted on modulation scheduling in SWIPT-based IoT sensor networks while taking into account the IR architecture. Accordingly, in this paper, we address this research gap by studying the problem of joint scheduling for unicast/multicast, IoT sensor, and modulation (UMSM) in a time-slotted SWIPT-based IoT sensor network system. To this end, we leverage mathematical modeling and optimization techniques, such as the Lagrangian duality and stochastic optimization theory, to develop an UMSM scheduling algorithm that maximizes the weighted sum of average unicast service throughput and harvested energy of IoT sensors, while ensuring the minimum average throughput of both multicast and unicast, as well as the minimum average harvested energy of IoT sensors. Finally, we demonstrate through extensive simulations that our UMSM scheduling algorithm achieves superior energy harvesting (EH) and throughput performance while ensuring the satisfaction of specified constraints well.Comment: 29 pages, 13 figures (eps

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia predominantly associated with IgA anti-E and anti-c.

A patient with warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) due to predominance of immunoglobulin A (IgA) with an Rh specificity, considered to be the first case in Korea, is described. A 13-year-old male patient with severe hemolytic anemia showed a weak reactivity (1+) in the direct antiglobulin test (DAT) by using anti-IgG antiglobulin reagent. This finding, however, could not fully explain the patient's severe AIHA. When anti-IgA reagent was used for the DAT, strong reactivity (4+) was observed and free anti-E and anti-c autoantibodies were also detected by anti-IgA and anti-IgG reagents. The patient's hemoglobin began to rise with the administration of steroids. Because RBCs coated with multiple types of immunoglobulins are associated with more severe hemolysis than those only with IgG, the DATs using anti-IgA and other reagents are needed for the correct diagnosis when the result of DAT is not compatible with patient's clinical manifestations
