Abstract: A selector according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first electrode; a second electrode disposed opposite to the first electrode; an ion supply layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode to be on the side of the first electrode and doped with a metal, wherein the doped metal diffuses toward the second electrode; a switching layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode to be on the side of the second electrode, wherein the doped metal diffuses from the ion supply layer into the switching layer so that metal concentration distribution inside the switching layer is changed to generate metal filaments; and a diffusion control layer inserted between the ion supply layer and the switching layer, wherein the diffusion control layer serves to adjust electrical characteristics related to the generated metal filaments as the amount of the diffusing metal is adjusted in proportion to a thickness of the diffusion control layer.

Abstract: A battery module includes a plurality of pouch-type battery cells respectively having an accommodation portion and a sealing portion and configured to be stacked on each other; a module case configured to accommodate the plurality of pouch-type battery cells in an inner space thereof; and a barrier member interposed between the accommodation portions of neighboring pouch-type battery cells and configured to have at least one side protrusively extending from a portion between the accommodation portions of the neighboring pouch-type battery cells to a portion between the sealing portions of the neighboring pouch-type battery cells.

Abstract: A user terminal is provided, including a communication interface unit which receives an application content at least part of which is encrypted, a storage unit which stores the received application content, a decryption unit which decrypts the application content, a user interface unit which receives a command to execute the application content, and a controlling unit which controls the decryption unit to install an application content stored in the storage unit in an encrypted state and decrypt the installed application content according to the execution command. Accordingly, an application, which is an executable content, may be downloaded and installed in a user terminal, and used and updated safely.

Abstract: A method and system for executing applications in a mobile device including receiving a request for execution of the application; determining whether the mobile device is located in a restricted area where execution of the application is controlled; and determining, when the mobile device is located in a restricted area, whether to execute the application requested for execution, according to a application execution policy that allows for execution of the application in the restricted area.

Abstract: A management server and method for providing a cloud computing service at high speed and reasonable cost, are provided. The management server provides a virtual machine to a client as a computing resource. The virtual machine is multiplexed by operating multiple virtual devices on a single virtual machine. Accordingly, demand for computing resources may be predicted in advance and may be provided to a user more efficiently.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for generating an animation of a virtual character using video data and a limited number of three-dimensional (3D) key models of a virtual character, are provided. The video data includes a sequence of two-dimensional image frames. The key models are blended together using the calculated weights, and a 3D facial expression most similar to the 2D facial expression included in each image frame may be generated. When the above operations are performed for input video data including a sequence of image frames, a facial animation, which makes facial expressions according to facial expressions included in the video data may be created.
