Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for updating an Internet-based malware detection engine using virtual machine scaling. The method may include creating a scaling group and an update group set based on a first virtual machine image, creating a second virtual machine image for a running virtual machine in response to occurrence of a snapshot event in the virtual update group run based on the first virtual machine image, modifying the scale-out image of the scaling group to the second virtual machine image, updating the scaling group by triggering a scale-out event and a scale-in event in the scaling group in response to occurrence of an update event, and modifying the scale-in image of the scaling group to the second virtual machine image.

Abstract: A method by which a terminal operating in an unlicensed band transmits a signal includes the steps of: receiving, from a base station, configuration information about a carrier; receiving configuration information for configuring N (where N is an integer) guard band(s) for some frequency domains of the carrier; and transmitting a signal to the base station by using a first frequency domain of a bandwidth part belonging to the carrier, wherein the first frequency domain can be a domain excluding the N guard band(s) from the frequency domain of the bandwidth part.

Abstract: A method of a terminal may comprise: receiving, from a base station, configuration information of uplink reference signal (UL RS) for two or more serving cells; transmitting a first UL RS to the base station based on the configuration information in a first cell of the two or more serving cells; and transmitting a second UL RS to the base station based on the configuration information in a second cell of the two or more serving cells.

Abstract: An X-ray photography device capable of readily photographing by switching to various photography modes such as a standing mode, a table mode and the like with one X-ray photography device is disclosed. To this end, the X-ray photographing device comprises: a base frame; a support frame pivotably coupled to one side of the base frame through a hinge shaft and on one side of which an X-ray detector for detecting X-rays irradiated from an X-ray generation device is slidably provided; and an actuator of which one end is rotatably fixed to the base frame and of which the other end is rotatably fixed to the support frame spaced at a predetermined distance from the hinge shaft, and which pivots the support frame around the hinge shaft within a predetermined angle range while moving a driving shaft therein forward and backward by pneumatic or hydraulic pressure supplied from the outside.
