Abstract: An apparatus and method for imaging a shear modulus within a body is disclosed. A method for imaging a shear modulus in accordance with the present invention includes generating an elastic wave inside an object to be measured; detecting the elastic wave ongoing inside the object to be measured; calculating a shear modulus of the inside of the object to be measured, based on a value obtained by differentiating the detected elastic wave one time; and imaging the inside of the object to be measured, based on the calculated shear modulus.

Abstract: A method and device for delivering multimedia data using IETF QoS protocols. MPEG media data can be transmitted in packet units through a network using the IETF QoS protocol by mapping MPEG media traffic factors onto IETF QoS traffic factors. By encoding or transcoding MPEG media traffic according to a double leaky bucket model indicated by the four factors, a maximum bit rate, a first buffer size, a guaranteed bit rate, and a second buffer size, the MPEG media traffic factors may be transmitted using the IETF QoS protocol without having to go through the process of being mapped onto QoS traffic factors.
