Tor is a popular, low-latency open network that offers online anonymity to users by concealing their information from anyone conducting traffic analysis. At the same time, a number of conventional passive and active attacking schemes have been proposed to compromise the anonymity provided by the Tor network. In addition to attacks on the network through traffic analysis, interacting with an unsecured application can reveal a Tor user's IP address. Specific traffic from such applications bypasses Tor proxy settings in the user's machine and forms connections outside the Tor network. This paper presents such applications and shows how they can be used to deanonymize Tor users. Extensive test studies performed in the paper show that applications such as Flash and BitTorrent can reveal the IP addresses of Tor users.

기술의 발전이 비약적으로 성장하면서, 소비자의 요구는 빠르게 변하고 있다. 전자 소자를 응용한 제품 시장은 매해를 거듭할 수록 빠른 속도로 성능을 향상시키고 있다. 이에 따라 디스플레이 시장에서 가장 큰 관심은 작은 화면에서도 높은 해상도를 요구하고, 수광형의 구동방식이 아닌 능동형 구동방식을 갖는 AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitted Diode)를 선호하고 있으며, 빠른 응답속도 기반을 갖는 표시소자를 요구하고 있다. 제품 생산자들의 고민은 기존의 비정질 실리콘 기반의 LCD (Liquid crystal display) 구동소자와 공정을 이용하여 소비자의 욕구에 접근하기가 점점 어려워지고 있다. 최근 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 하는 노력들중에서 산화물 반도체 재료와 이를 이용한 박막 트랜지스터 개발이 큰 관심을 갖고 있다. 최근 InGaZnO 산화물 반도체 재료는 기존의 비정질 실리콘 반도체 재료 보다 높은 전계 이동도(> $10cm^2/V.s$)를 보이고 있으며, 비정질 실리콘 박막 트랜지스터의 구조에서 산화물 반도체 재료의 대체만으로 효과가 보일 수 있어서 큰 연구가 진행되어져 왔다. 하지만, InGaZnO 산화물 박막 트랜지스터에 대한 소자를 AMOLED에 적용할 때, 기존의 LTPS (low temperature poly-slicon)에서는 발견되지 않았던 소자의 전계신뢰성과 이동도 한계가 문제로 제기되었다. 또한, Indium이라는 희소원소의 사용은 향후 공정 단가와 희소 물질에 대한 위협등에 의하여 새로운 산화물 반도체 재료에 대한 요구와 관심이 발생하고 있다. 본 발표에서는 기존의 산화물 반도체 재료에 대한 차세대 디스플레이인 AMOLED와 유연 디스플레이에 대한 응용 가능성을 발표할 예정이다. 또한 산화물 반도체 재료의 신뢰성 문제에 대한 해결방법으로 신규 산화물 반도체 재료에 대한 연구 방향과 indium-free 계열을 이용한 저원가 산화물 반도체 연구에 대하여 소개할 예정이다. 앞으로 산화물 반도체 재료에 대한 연구와 응용은 기존의 실리콘 반도체 틀을 벗어난 새로운 응용분야를 열어줄 수 있을 것으로 기대하고 있으며, 그 기대에 대한 몇가지 예를 통하여 재료와 소자의 응용 가능성을 논의할 예정이다.

In this paper, two methods to suppress flutter of the composite panel are examined. First, in the active control method, a controller based on the linear optimal control theory is designed and control input voltage is applied on the actuators and a PZT is used as actuator. Second, a new technique, passive suppression scheme, is suggested for suppression of the nonlinear panel flutter. In the passive suppression scheme, a shunt circuit which consists of inductor-resistor is used to increase damping of the system and as a result the flutter can be attenuated. A passive damping technology, which is believed to be more robust suppression system in practical operation, requires very little or no electrical power and additional apparatuses such as sensor system and controller are not needed. To achieve the great actuating force/damping effect, the optimal shape and location of the actuators are determined by using genetic algorithms. The governing equations are derived by using extended Hamilton's principle. They are based on the nonlinear von Karman strain-displacement relationship for the panel structure and quasi-steady first-order piston theory for the supersonic airflow. The discretized finite element equations are obtained by using 4-node conforming plate element. A modal reduction is performed to the finite element equations in order to suppress the panel flutter effectively and nonlinear-coupled modal equations are obtained. Numerical suppression results, which are based on the reduced nonlinear modal equations, are presented in time domain by using Newmark nonlinear time integration method.

The efficiency of power supply circuits such as DC-DC converters and batteries varies on the trend of the power consumption because their efficiencies are not fixed. To analyze the efficiency of power supply circuits, we need the temporal behavior of the power consumption of the loads, which is dependent on the activity factors of the devices during the operation. Since it is not easy to model every detail of those factors, one of the most accurate power consumption analyses of power supply circuits is measurement of a real system, which is expensive and time consuming. In this paper, we introduce an active load emulator for embedded systems which is capable of power measurement, logging, replaying and synthesis. We adopt a pattern recognition technique for data compression in that long-term behaviors of power consumption consist of numbers of repetitions of short-term behaviors, and the number of short-term behaviors is generally limited to a small number. We also devise a heterogeneous structure of active load elements so that low-speed, high-current active load elements and high-speed, low-current active load elements may emulate large amount and fast changing power consumption of digital systems. For the performance evaluation of our load emulator, we demonstrate power measurement and emulation of a hard drive. As an application of our load emulator, it is used for the analysis of a DC-DC converter efficiency and for the verification of a low-power frequency scaling policy for a real-time task.

The geographical knowledge is composed of academic geographical knowledge, school geographical knowledge, applied geographical knowledge and popular geographical knowledge according to the diverse social need and demand. And the geographical knowledge has developed through the knowledge circulation system, which is connected to knowledge production, delivery, application and to reproduction among these knowledge fields. The discontinuity of knowledge circulation can lead to crisis of geographical whole. Therefore, for sustainable development of geography, it is necessary to firmly build a virtuous circulation system of geographical knowledge which is linked to a knowledge production and accumulation by an academic geography, knowledge delivery by a school geography, knowledge social application by an applied geography, knowledge application in everyday life by a popular geography and knowledge reproduction by an academic geography.

In low voltage high current applications such as fuel cells the current-fed DC-DC converter which has small ripple current and turn ratio is more efficient. In the applications larger than 5kW the conventional single-phase current-fed converter based on full-bridge, half-bridge or push-pull topologies has high current burden of devices such as switches, and the selection and optimized design of the devices are not easy. In this paper a three-phase active-clamped current-fed push-pull DC-DC converter suitable for high power high step-up applications is proposed. The proposed converter has reduced current burden and is suitable for wide input voltage applications due to the use of whole duty cycle range. Design methods of main components including three-phase high frequency transformers are provided, and the validity and performance of the proposed converter are proved from a 5kW prototype.

The effect of a-sexithiophene(${\alpha}-6T$) layers on the light emitting diode (LED) were studied. The ${\alpha}-6T$ was used for a buffer layer in electroluminescent (EL) devices. Enhanced carrier (hole) injection and improved emission efficiency were observed. Carrier injection characteristics were investigated as a function of ${\alpha}-6T$ later thickness. The efficiency of the electroluminescence was proportional to the thickness of ${\alpha}-6T$ layer. The highest efficiency was observed 600A of ${\alpha}-6T$ later, which was about 1.5 times higher than that of device without ${\alpha}-6T$ later. The device with a-6T showed an operation voltage lowered by 2V. The ${\alpha}-6T$ layer can substitute hole blocking layer, and control charge injection properties.

While recognition of isolated units of writing, such as a character or a word, has been extensively studied, emphasis on the segmentation itself has been lacking. In this paper we propose an active segmentation method for handwritten Hangul address strings based on the Run-length code. A slant correction algorithm, which is considered as an important preprocessing step for the segmentation, is presented. Three fundamental candidate estimation functions are introduced to detect the clues on touching points, and the classification of touching types is attempted depending on the structural peculiarity of Hangul. Our experiments show segmentation performance of 88.2% on touching characters with minimal over-segmentation.
