On the strength of the rapid development and propagation of U-healthcare service, the service technologies are full of important changes. However, U-healthcare service has security problem that patient's biometric information can be easily exposed to the third party without service users' consent. This paper proposes a distributed model according authority and access level of hospital officials in order to safely access patients' private information in u-Healthcare Environment. Proposed model can both limit the access to patients' biometric information and keep safe system from DoS attack using time stamp. Also, it can prevent patients' data spill and privacy intrusion because the main server simultaneously controls hospital officials and the access by the access range of officials from each hospital.

The importance of spatio-temporal trajectories for contact tracing has increased due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Spatio-temporal trajectories store time and spatial data of moving objects. In this paper, I propose query processing for spatio-temporal trajectories of moving objects. The spatio-temporal trajectory model of moving objects has point type spatial data for storing locations and timestamp type temporal data for time. A trajectory query is a query to search for pairs of users who have been in close contact by boarding the same bus. To process the trajectory query, I use the Geolife dataset provided by Microsoft. The proposed trajectory query processing method divides trajectory data by date and checks whether users' trajectories were nearby for each date to generate information about contacts as the result.

In the existing data dissemination methods for mobile P2P networks, the search performance of content that matches the peer profile is very excellent. However, in the search for content that does not match the their profile, additional consideration about case that contents does not match the profile is needed because costs for the query processing will be incurred. To solve these problems, we propose a new data dissemination method for efficient contents search in mobile P2P networks. In the proposed method, peers determine whether they experienced communications by using a timestamp message and then perform data dissemination. We also propose a ranking algorithm to efficiently store dissemination data in a limited memory. The proposed ranking method can reduce query messages by considering the profile matches, the distribution range, and the connectivity to the data distribution peer.

Accountable Internet Protocol (AIP) is one of the future Internet architectures to provide accountability concept by using the self-certifying address that is derived by the public key of the host. In AIP, when a host sends a packet, a domain that is located between the source and the destination hosts discards the packet in order to verify the source IP address. Therefore, performance degradation can occur due to packet discard especially when there is asymmetric route. In this paper, we propose the improved AIP mechanism to verify the source IP address without discarding the packet by including the timestamp, public key value and the signature for protecting from forfeiting the source address. Security safety of the proposed mechanism is evaluated and the proposed mechanism can provide the more robust security as well as reducing the latency due to discarding packets.

An e-passport is equipped with bio information by adding the non-attachable IC chip with a smart function. In order to solve such a problem, the user's privacy is protected by using the BAC, PA, AA and EAC mechanisms. However, the password key used in the BAC mechanism is made of the combination of the MRZ values. As a result, it is possible to decode the password by using the indiscriminate attacking program after finding out the combined rules of MRZ. This thesis suggests the mechanism with an improved level of efficiency through the time-stamp values by using the information of images and fingerprints and checking the forge or falsification of the e-passport when establishing a safe channel between the chip of the e-passport and the decoding system.

Due to its communication vulnerability resulting in a range of problems, e.g. eavesdropping, information exposure, traffic analysis and spoofing, RFID system becomes the target of attackers. Accordingly, many investigators have proposed various protocols to the extent of theorem proving or verification as the implementation is challenging. This paper thus proposes a safe RFID security protocol using public keys, session keys, hashes, XORs, and random numbers. Timestamps and hashes are applied to the most vulnerable section between readers and tags to detect attacks in attack signals with time difference. Also, to prevent tag information from being exposed in the last session, hash operation is adopted before communication. Finally, in this paper, we designed a RFID security protocol using public and session keys applicable to real systems and verified the security of the proposed protocol with a differentiated formal verification technique.

U-healthcare, which grafted advanced IT technology onto medical technology, is in the limelight because it can provide medical services at anytime and anywhere. U-healthcare system applied RFID technology for Implantable Medical Device (IMD), but patient's biometric information can be easily exposed to third parties. In this article, RFID-based U-healthcare authentication protocol is proposed to prevent illegal usage for personal biometric information exposed to the third patty. The proposed protocol guarantees patients' biometric information integrity as compounding random numbers between administrators and hospital/clinic managers, and uses continuous number SEQ and time stamp T to synchronize IMD/administrators and administrators/hospital managers. Also, to protect user's privacy from the third party, patients' biometric information can be safely guarded by managing patients' security identifiers by administrators.

In the UV-NIL process using an elementwise patterned stamp (EPS), which includes channels formed to separate each element with patterns, low-viscosity resin droplets with a nano-liter volume are dispensed on all elements of the EPS. Following pressing of the EPS, the EPS is illuminated with UV-light to cure the resin; and then the EPS is separated from several thin patterned elements on a wafer. Experiments on UV-NIL were performed on an EVG620-NIL. 50 - 100nm features of the EPS with 3m channels were successfully transferred to 4 in. wafers. Especially, the wafer deformation during imprint was analyzed using the finite element method (FEM) in order to study the effect of the wafer deformation on the UV-NIL using EPS.

As communication technologies are developed and variety of services to mobile devices are provided, mobile users is rapidly increasing every year. However, mobile services running on wireless network environment are exposed to various security threats, such as illegal tampering, eavesdropping, and disguising identity. Accordingly, the secure mobile communications services to 3GPP were established that the standard for 3GPP-AKA specified authentication and key agreement. But in the standard, sequence number synchronization problem using false base station attack and privacy problem were discovered through related researches. In this paper, we propose an efficient authentication mechanism for enhanced privacy protection in the 3G network. We solve the sequence number synchronization existing 3GPP authentication scheme using timestamp and strengthen a privacy problem using secret token. In addition, the proposed scheme can improve the bandwidth consumption between serving network and home network and the problem of authentication data overhead for the serving network because it uses only one authentication vector.

Synchronization between media is an important aspect in the design of multimedia communication-system. This paper proposes a precise media synchronization mechanism for video and audio transport over IP networks. To support synchronization between video and audio bitstreams transported over IP networks, RTP/RTCP protocol suite is usually employed. To provide a precise mechanism for media synchronization between video and audio, we suggest an efficient media synchronization algorithm based on NPT (Normal Play Time) which can be derivable from the timestamp information in the header part of RTP packet generated for the transport of video and audio. In the proposed method, we do not need to send and process any RTCP SR (sender report) packet which is required for conventional media synchronization scheme, and accordingly could reduce the number of required UDP ports and the amount of control traffic injected into the network.
