This paper presents a novel method for minting hierarchical Non-Fungible Tokens(NFTs) via a parent-child structure. In contrast to existing NFT structures, our proposed model enables an NFT to act as a parent, creating child NFTs and distributing ownership stakes among them. These child NFTs are recursively structured, allowing them to generate their own descendants. The existing structure of NFTs does not inherently allow for fractional ownership. However, our proposed hierarchical model provides a feasible solution to this restriction. By dividing an NFT into multiple child NFTs, each with its own unique identity, we facilitate the detailed division of an asset, thereby making fractional ownership possible. In conclusion, the hierarchical NFT model proposed in this paper offers a promising solution to the challenges of fractional ownership in the digital asset arena. By enabling the detailed division of NFTs through a parent-child structure, we anticipate a future where digital assets can be owned and traded more flexibly and transparently.

Blockchains have recently struggled to design for the ideal distributed trust networks by solving scalability trilemma. However, local conflicts between some countries lead to imbalance on energy distribution. Besides, blockchain networks (e.g., Bitcoin) currently consume enormous energy for transaction and mining. The existing data volume based trust model evaluated an increasing blockchain size better than Lubin's trust model in scalability trilemma. In this paper, we propose a scalability based energy model to evaluate sustainability for blockchain networks, considering energy consumption for transaction, time duration, and the blockchain size of growing blockchain networks. Through the rigorous numerical analysis, we compare the proposed scalability based energy model with the existing model for the satisfaction and optimal blockchain size. Thus, the scalability based energy model will provide an assessment tool to choose the proper blockchain networks to solve scalability trilemma problem and prove sustainability.

Internet banking is widely used in our life with the development of the internet. At the same time, phishing attacks to internet banking have been increased by using malicious object to make unfair profit. People using internet banking service in Korea is required to install security modules such as anti-virus and keyboard protection. However phishing attack technique has been progressed and the advanced technique such as memory hacking defeats the security module of internet banking service. In this paper, we describe internet banking security modules provided by Korean internet banks and analyze how keyboard encryption module works. And we propose an attack to manipulate account transfer information using javascript. Although keyboard protection module provides two functions that protect leakage and manipulation of account transfer information submitted by users against the malicious program of hackers. Our proposed technique can manipulate the account transfer information and result html pages.

The size of the domestic art market has increased 21.9% over the past five years as of 2018 to KRW 448.2 billion and the number of transactions has also increased 31.6% to 39,367 points maintaining growth for the fifth consecutive year. Art distribution platforms are diversifying from galleries and auction-style offline to online auctions. The art market consists of three areas: production (creation), distribution (trade), and consumption (buying) of works and as the perception of artistic value as well as economic value spreads interest is also increasing as a means of investment. Consumers who purchase works and think of them as a means of investment technology have an increased need for objective information about their works, but there is a limit to collecting and analyzing objective and reliable statistics because information provision in the art market distribution area is closed and unbalanced. This paper identifies objective and reliable art distribution status and status through big data collection and structured and unstructured data analysis on art market distribution areas. Through this, we want to implement a system that can objectively provide analysis of authors in the current market. This study collected author information from art distribution sites and calculated the frequency of associated words by writer by collecting and analyzing the author's articles from Maeil Business, a daily newspaper. It aims to provide consumers with objective and reliable information.

We propose a mobile point-of-sale system, which consists of only mobile information terminals and personal computers. The proposed system provides most of functionalities related with resource planning, adminstration and management, provided by medium-scale or large-scale POS systems, with additional functionalities, such as automatic information gathering and management through mobile interconnection, while eliminating the necessity of additional special-purpose devices, such as bar-code systems. The proposed system transmits order information through wireless and wired communication lines, thus allowing real-time sharing of order information among diverse information devices, such as mobile order receiving terminals, main server within stores, monitors and printers located in production lines. Also, the system is able to transfer such detail information produced within stores in real-time to the enterprise-level accounting, sales, logistics, personnel management system, which facilitate enterprise-wide management and administrative decision-making. No additional programs are required for mobile terminals. Order information received by such terminals are entered into databases through web server of main server and that information is again transferred to main server and production line printers. The proposed system can handle all the point-of-sale information and can provide almost of the POS functionalities by simply utilizing wireless internet, personal computers, and mobile terminals without installing specific-purpose peripheral devices. The proposed system can be widely applied to the small-scale stores and will contribute in reducing construction and maintenance cost required for point-of-sale management.

As the global business environment is rapidly changing due to the 4th industrial revolution, new jobs that did not exist before are emerging. Among them, the job that companies are most interested in is 'Data Scientist'. As information and communication technologies take up most of our lives, data on not only online activities but also offline activities are stored in computers every hour to generate big data. Companies put a lot of effort into discovering new opportunities from such big data. The new job that emerged along with the efforts of these companies is data scientist. The demand for data scientist, a promising job that leads the big data era, is constantly increasing, but its supply is not still enough. Although data analysis technologies and tools that anyone can easily use are introduced, companies still have great difficulty in finding proper experts. One of the main reasons that makes the data scientist's shortage problem serious is the lack of understanding of the data scientist's job. Therefore, in this study, we explore the job competencies of a data scientist by qualitatively analyzing the actual job posting information of the company. This study finds that data scientists need not only the technical and system skills required of software engineers and system analysts in the past, but also business-related and interpersonal skills required of business consultants and project managers. The results of this study are expected to provide basic guidelines to people who are interested in the data scientist profession and to companies that want to hire data scientists.

EBPP는 소비자, 사업자간에 고지서 발송, 접수 및 지불을 네트워크를 통하여 전자적으로 처리하는데 필요한 환경을 의미하며, 인터넷을 기반으로 하여 전자우편 혹은 웹 페이지를 통하여 고지서를 처리한다 EBPP 시스템은 크게 소비자, 사업자 그리고 은행간의 거래로 이루어 지지만 컴퓨터 및 인터넷의 보급의 한계 등의 문제로 현재로서 모든 고지서를 전자적으로 처리하는 것은 무리가 따른다. 그럼에도 불구하고 EBPP 시스템은 1) 경쟁력 확보를 위해 기업/금융 기관들이 인터넷을 통한 고품질 서비스 개발에 주력하는 추세이고, 2) 고객과의 보다 긴밀한 관계 유지를 위한 수단 제공하며, 3) 인터넷 등 온라인 통신 인구가 급격한 증가(2701년에 전체 인구의 약 50%가 활용할 것으로 전망)하고 있으며,4) 소비자를게 보다 편리한 지불방법 제시해주며, 5) 또 다른 마케팅 매체로 활용 가능하므로 앞으로의 전망이 매우 밝다. EBPP시스템은 크게 금융기관, 기업, 소비자 부분으로 구성되며, 소비자와 접촉 방법으로는 대표적으로 Web과 전자우편을 생각할 수 있으며, EBPP 시스템을 구축하기 위해서는 기본적으로 상접 혹은 기업에서 청구에 필요한 정보를 등록시키는 통합 청구서버(Bill consolidation server), 소비자에게 청구 가능한 정보를 갖고있는 청구 제시서버 (Bill presentment server), 소비자의 지불요청에 따라 은행으로부터 지불을 요구하는 지불서버(Payment gateway) 등이 필요하며, 이들 각각의 서버들의 구성 요소들은 제공하는 서비스에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 통합 청구서버에서 청구 제시서버로 전송되는 청구 건은 통상적으로 실시간 처리되는 것이 아니라 통합 청구서버에 존재하는 Spool DB에 저장되어 그 양이 일정한도를 넘어서면 자동 전송되도록 하여, 망의 할용도를 높이는 역할을 수행한다. 청구 제시서버의 DB에 등록된 청구 건은 인터넷을 통해 소비자에게 청구되며, 소비자에게 전송 되는 청구서는 사용자DB를 참조하여 사용자가 미리 정의한 원하는 형태로 변환되어 전달되며, 필요시 암호화 과정을 거치는 것이 가능해야 한다. 전송된 청구서는 전자우편의 경우, 암호해독이 가능한 전용 브라우저를 통해 열람 되며, 이는 다시 전용 브라우저를 통해 지불인증이 승인되어 청구 제시서버에게 전송된다. EBPP 시스템의 제어 흐름은 크게 기업이 청구 정보를 소비자에게 제시하는 흐름과 소비자의 지불 승인으로 인해 기업이 은행에 지불을 요구하는 흐름으로 구분할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 통합 청구서버 및 정구 제시서버의 역할 및 구성 요소들에 대해 서술하고, EBPP 시스템과 연동하여야 하는 메일 서버와의 상호 작용에 대해 서술할 것이다. 본 시스템을 아직 구현이 되지 않은 관계로 시스템의 성능 등의 수치적 결과를 제시할 수 없는 상태다.

The Web plays an important role as information source and most Web applications are document-centric. A document implies an intention of its own designer, which can be utilized actively in automation of business processes. Through an understanding of an intrinsic nature of a document function, we can see a document as an executable computer program in a special case. For this approach, we propose an active document model that is composed of form, knowledge base, rules, and queries. For reusability and interoperability of a document, each component of the proposed model is uniformly represented in XML. The proposed active document not only plays a passive role in providing user interfaces, but also is a document that a machine can infer and process with reading a procedure of document processing and business rules intended by document designers. Through this approach, document can interact with machines and can cooperate with other applications. For applicability of our active document, we show a case study for the processing of purchase orders in a B2B e-Commerce system. This paper is expected to provide the framework of accelerating the development of intelligent applications through our approach regards form document as a computer program. In short, the proposed active document contains knowledge representation and processing method, consequently our document will play an important role in providing a concept of document of pursuing in Semantic Web.

E-voting is a concept that includes actions such as kiosk voting at a designated place and internet voting at an unspecified place, and has emerged to alleviate the problem of consuming a lot of resources and costs when conducting offline voting. Using E-voting has many advantages over existing voting systems, such as increased efficiency in voting and ballot counting, reduced costs, increased voting rate, and reduced errors. However, centralized E-voting has not received attention in public elections and voting on corporate agendas because the results of voting cannot be trusted due to concerns about data forgery and modulation and hacking by others. In order to solve this problem, recently, by designing an E-voting system using blockchain, research has been actively conducted to supplement concepts lacking in existing E-voting, such as increasing the reliability of voting information and securing transparency. In this paper, we proposed an electronic voting system that introduced hybrid blockchain that uses public and private blockchains in convergence. A hybrid blockchain can solve the problem of slow transaction processing speed, expensive fee by using a private blockchain, and can supplement for the lack of transparency and data integrity of transactions through a public blockchain. In addition, the proposed system is implemented as BaaS to ensure the ease of type conversion and scalability of blockchain and to provide powerful computing power. BaaS is an abbreviation of Blockchain as a Service, which is one of the cloud computing technologies and means a service that provides a blockchain platform ans software through the internet. In this paper, in order to evaluate the feasibility, the proposed system and domestic and foreign electronic voting-related studies are compared and analyzed in terms of blockchain type, anonymity, verification process, smart contract, performance, and scalability.
