Abstract: Disclosed is a technique for switching from a master node to a secondary node in a communication system. A method of a first communication node may comprise: adding the first communication node as a primary secondary cell (PSCell) to a second communication node through dual connectivity (DC); generating a first user plane path for smart dynamic switching (SDS) and a first instance for supporting the first user plane path according to a request from the second communication node; transmitting information on the first user plane path and the first instance to a terminal; receiving user data based on the first user plane path from the terminal as the first instance; and transmitting the user data to a core network using the first user plane path.

Abstract: Provided is a peptide composition for preventing or treating Alzheimer's dementia. A peptide or a salt substituent thereof according to the presently claimed subject matter exhibits effects such as suppression of LPS-mediated cytokine production, suppression of LPS-induced neuroinflammation, amelioration of cognitive impairment, suppression of beta amyloid or tau protein aggregation, and suppression of neuronal loss. The polypeptide or the salt substituent thereof can permeate the blood-brain barrier, and thus, is expected to be usefully used for preventing or treating Alzheimer's dementia.

Abstract: An olefin polymer and a preparation method for manufacturing the olefin polymer are disclosed. The olefin polymer has a high melting point and a high crystallization temperature, thus having excellent heat resistance. Therefore, the olefin polymer may be utilized in spout pouches for high-temperature liquid containers, or the like. The olefin polymer may have a density of 0.9 to 0.95 g/cm3, preferably 0.91 to 0.945 g/cm3, and satisfies the following Equations 1a and 2a: 224.02×d?86.257<Tm, and ??[Equation 1a] 219.64×d?95.767<Tc.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a seawater desalination apparatus using pressure-assisted forward osmosis and reverse osmosis. The seawater desalination apparatus includes: a forward osmosis unit receiving seawater and sewage; and a reverse osmosis unit receiving diluted seawater from the forward osmosis unit, wherein the forward osmosis unit comprises a first train arrangement and a second train arrangement, and the number of trains disposed in the first train arrangement is different from the number of trains disposed in the second train arrangement.

Abstract: A video recording and playback device has a control track recorder for recording a control track signal including timing edges recorded on a tape or other storage medium together with the video program. A decoder is coupled to the control track signal and to the tape drive for switching among a forward play mode, a forward skip mode and a rewind mode, as a function of play, skip and rewind codes inserted into the control track as phase variations of edges other than those used for timing, or preferably as pulses with sloping edges distinct from the timing edges. In addition to selectively skipping sections of the video program preceded by a skip code and followed by a play code, such as commercial breaks, the device permits user editing of play and skip codes and selective multiple replays of sections of the video program preceded by a play code and followed by a rewind code.

Abstract: A VCR includes apparatus for controlling a cable converter unit. In a preferred embodiment, infrared (IR) transmission of commands from the VCR to the cable converter unit is employed. An LED assembly holds the LEDs in a predetermined orientation and provides first and second IR ports through which different amounts of IR signals are transmitted.

Abstract: A VCR includes circuitry for controlling a cable converter unit, circuitry for detecting the presence of a television signal, and control code transmission means for remotely controlling a cable converter unit. Advantageously, because the VCR is coupled to the output of the cable converter unit, the VCR can monitor the television signals received from the cable converter unit to ensure that commands sent to the cable converter unit from the VCR are executed. In one embodiment, infrared (IR) transmission of commands from the VCR to the cable converter unit is employed.

Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for providing and using content advisory (CA) information on Internet contents. A method of providing CA information by using a CA information server, includes receiving a request for the CA information on a content, from an Internet Protocol television (IPTV); searching for CA information on the content; and transmitting the found CA information to the IPTV. A method of using CA information when an IPTV reproduces a content not having the CA information, according to the present invention, includes transmitting a request for CA information, to a CA information server; receiving the CA information from the CA information server; analyzing the CA information; and applying the CA information.
