In this paper, we present a secret key distribution protocol without resorting to a key management infrastructure targeting at providing a low-complexity distributed solution to wireless network. The proposed scheme extracts a secret key from the random fluctuation of wireless channels. By exploiting time division duplexing transmission, two legitimate users, Alice and Bob can have highly correlated channel gains due to channel reciprocity, and a pair of random bit sequences can be generated by quantizing the channel gains. We propose a novel adaptive quantization scheme that adjusts quantization thresholds according to channel variations and reduces the mismatch probability between generated bit sequences by Alice and Bob. BCH codes, as a low-complexity and pratical approach, are also employed to correct the mismatches between the pair of bit sequences and produce a secret key shared by Alice and Bob. To maximize the secret key extraction rate, the parameters, quantization levels and code rates of BCH codes are jointly optimized.

Two-dimensional flow over a pair of circular cylinders in side-by-side arrangements at low Reynolds numbers has been numerically investigated in this study. Numerical simulations are performed, using the immersed boundary method, in the ranges of $40{\leq}Re{\leq}160$ and $g^{\ast}<5$, where Re and $g^{\ast}$ are, respectively, the Reynolds number and the spacing between the two cylinder surfaces divided by the cylinder diameter. Results show that total six kinds of wake patterns are observed over the ranges: antiphase-synchronized, inphase-synchronized, flip-flopping, single bluff-body, deflected, and steady wake patterns. It is found that the characteristics of the flow significantly depends both on the Reynolds number and gap spacing, with the latter much stronger than the former. Instantaneous flow fields, time traces, flow statistics and so on are presented to identify the wake patterns and then to understand the underlying mechanism. It is remarkable that, for the deflected wake pattern, the gap flow is deflected invariably to the cylinder of higher drag coefficient and the deflection way does not change at all. Moreover, the bifurcation phenomena where either of two wake patterns can occur are found at certain flow conditions.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the cloned pga gene encoding the penicillin G acylase of Bacillus megaterium ATCC 14945 and its 5'- and 3'-flanking regions was determined. The sequence revealed only one large open reading frame (2,406 hp) of the penicillin G acylase (pga) gene. Upstream from ATG of the pga gene, there was a putative ribosome binding site, Shine-Dalgarno sequence. The promoter-like structure, - 10 and - 35 sequences, was also found. Following the stop codon, TAG, a structure reminiscent of the E. coli rho-independent transcription terminator was present. The amino acid sequence was deduced from the nucleotide sequence. The molecular mass of the polypeptide was 91,983 Da. There was a potential signal sequence in its amino-terminal region. A comparison of its deduced amino acid sequence with other characterized penicillin G acylases and the result of SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme showed that a precursor polypeptide of 92 kDa was processed into two dissimilar ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$-subunits of 25 and 61 kDa.

우리는 레일리 페이딩 채널에서 다중 전송 안테나를 사용한 전송 방식을 택한 Alamouti 방식의 전송쌍 에러 확률(Pairwise error probability)을 사용해서 시스템의 성능을 분석해 보았다. 데이터는 시공간 블록 코딩을 사용해서 전송 안테나에 n 개의 배열로 전송되어졌다. 각각의 수신안테나의 수신 신호는 채널의 상태에 따라 변형된 n개의 송신 신호들의 선형결합으로 수신된다. 최대 가능도 복호 알고리즘(Maximum likelihood decoding algorithm)은 신호를 다시 재결합하는 간단한 방법을 사용하였다. 이러한 방식은 시공간 블록코드의 직교적인 성질을 이용한 것이고, 수신기에서의 수신신호가 선형결합이라는 것을 바탕으로 한 것이다. 모의실험을 통해서 시공간 블록 코딩을 사용하고, 다중 안테나를 사용한 시스템에서 우리가 분석한 결과를 확인했다.

U-healthcare는 종래의 헬스케어 영역에 유비쿼터스 기술을 접목하여 개인의 건강상태 관리를 도와주는 서비스이다. 이의 기반이 되는 기술인 질환 유무를 판별하는 기법은 그 동안 헬스케어 영역에 적용시켜 왔다. 하지만, 적시에 언제 어디서나 지속적인 모니터링이 요구되는 U-health환경에서는 기존의 기계학습기법을 그대로 적용하는 데에는 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 통계기반의 질환 유무 판별 기법을 제안한다. 본 판별 기법은 질환 판별에 이용되는 생체신호와 신체증상의 종류로 배열 구조를 설정하고 축적된 데이터로부터 생체신호와 신체증상간의 쌍에 누적 빈도 수를 기록하여 학습한 뒤 고안한 판별식을 적용시켜 사용자의 질환을 판별하는 기법이다. 제한적인 검증이지만 약 360명의 실제 환자 데이터를 이용하여 기법을 검증하였고, 빠른 속도와 지속적인 개선이 가능한 기법임을 알 수 있었다. 추후 정확한 데이터를 기반으로 다른 기법과의 비교 검증으로 엄밀한 검증이 요구된다.

This study derived a method for establishing the chronology of cloud patterns by examining the arrangement of the treasure motifs in the cloud pattern used in the relevant pattern-decorated book covers of 89 Oegyujanggak Uigwe books, which are currently housed in the National Museum of Korea. The cloud pattern with a treasure motif was used in the covers of a total of 89 books from King Hyojong Gukjangdogam Uigwe (1659) to Sadoseja Garyedogam Uigwe (1744), spanning 86 years. First, to analyze the cloud pattern, it should be broken down into smaller parts to the extent that the different shapes of treasure motifs can be recognized. Secondly, the method of decoding the pattern is as follows: First, check whether the pattern is arranged in one or two directions from the vertex of the cloud's head, and determine the direction of the cloud tail. Then, decode the treasure motif's arrangement starting from the vertex of the cloud's head toward the direction the tail of manja is headed. Record the findings of this decoding process by categorizing them. Thirdly, as a result of the analysis, a total of 28 types of cloud patterns with treasure motifs were identified in 89 books. There were 45 types of treasure motifs used in such patterns. Finally, we have concluded that applying the method of decoding the treasure motif in the cloud pattern to portraits, excavated costumes, and various relics can be useful to establish the chronology of cloud patterns in the late Joseon period. The method suggested in this study is called 'The Reading Method of Chronology in Cloud Pattern with Treasure Motifs' (also 'Jeung-ha Cloud Pattern Reading Method').

The LC-based digitally controlled oscillator (LC-DCO), a key component of the all digital phase locked loop (ADPLL), is designed using $0.18{\mu}m$ RFCMOS process with 1.8 V supply. The NMOS core with double cross-coupled pair is chosen to realize wide tuning range, and the PMOS varactor pair that has small capacitance of a few aF and the capacitive degeneration technique to shrink the capacitive element are adopted to obtain the high frequency resolution. Also, the noise filtering technique is used to improve phase noise performance. Measurement results show the center frequency of 2.7 GHz, the tuning range of 2.5 GHz and the high frequency resolution of 2.9 kHz ~7.1 kHz. Also the fine tuning range and the current consumption of the core could be controlled by using the array of PMOS transistors using current biasing. The current consumption is between 17 mA and 26 mA at 1.8V supply voltage. The proposed DCO could be used widely in various communication system.

The purpose of this study is to examine work-life balance by analyzing time schedules of married couple. The 2014 Korea Time Use Survey dataset was used for the analysis. Finally, 6,262 time diaries of 3,131 households were included in the analysis. The study used sequence analysis in particular, by applying the Lesnard(2014)'s dynamic hamming matching (DHM) method, which is useful for the time diary analysis where timing is a key factor. This study explored daily schedules of each man and woman according to 9 types of couple-combined work-schedules, which had been already derived by cluster analysis. The daily schedules were identified according to the activities divided as labor, housework, sleep, self-management, active leisure, passive leisure, and others. Here, time allocation was analyzed through various graphs showing average time amount and modal states by time period. Based on the analysis, it summarized that "long working hours as a main factor of work-life imbalance", "gender inequality of time use", "non-standard hours work impairing quality of life and "poverty of leisure time"as characteristics of work-life imbalance. Finally this study discussed the social policy implications to support work-life balance.
