In this study, we developed an electron-emission OH radical generator for waste water treatment. The stability of the circuitry was ensured by implementing stable pulse waves with a MOSFET and reducing the momentary current rise. The OH radical generator uses a high-voltage and low-current discharger. The performance of the device was evaluated experimentally, which showed that it is possible to produce a stable and uniform pulse waveform for the drain current of the power MOSFET, which is connected to the input side of an AC multiplying converter through negative feedback circuitry with CR-snubber architecture. It was also possible to reduce the excitation current of the converter and improve the stability of the oscillation circuit. In addition, the generator can generate hydroxyl radicals stably. The bactericidal activities were also evaluated, and the germicidal power for E. coli, S. aureus, and S. flexneriwas improved by 99.9% or more after 60 minutes.

Machine to Machine (M2M) is a technology that presents communication between two or more devices with or without human intervention. M2M communications can be applied for various use cases such as environmental monitoring, health care, smart metering and etc. In most use cases, M2M utilizes sensor nodes to collect data from the intended environment and the data is transmitted back to M2M application through other devices (gateways, sink nodes). In some use cases, M2M devices are being designed to store and process sensor data for improving the reliability of the service; Gateways and sink nodes are also intended to store and process the gathered data from sensor nodes. This kind of approach is very challenging for both academy and industry. In order to enhance the performance of this approach, in this paper, we propose our Common Service Security Platform (CSSP) for M2M devices and gateways. CSSP platform presents solutions for the devices and gateways by making them operate more accurately and efficiently. Besides, we present a comparative analysis of communication protocols and present their performance in accordance with selected metrics.

Background: This study was conducted to investigate the changes in the photosynthetic parameters, chlorophyll content, chlorophyll fluorescence, and growth characteristics of Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus seedlings under different shading treatments. Methods and Results: The shading treatment was regulated with the shading level (non-shaded, 35%, 55%, and 75% shading). Photosynthetic activities, such as net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, stomatal transpiration rate, and performance index on absorption basis ($PI_{ABS}$)were the highest under 35% shading ($4.36{\mu}mol\;CO_2{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, $54.2mmol\;H_2O{\cdot}m^2{\cdot}s^{-1}$, $0.66mmol\;H_2O{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, and 1.3, respectively), and the lowest under 75% shading. This implies that the decrease in net photosynthetic rate may be due to an inability to regulate water and $CO_2$ exchanged through the stomata. Thechlorophylla, b, and a + b contents were increased with elevating shading level and the chlorophyll a/b ratio showed non-significant differences. It was found that the dry weight (leaf, shoot, and whole) was the highest (1.14 g, 0.49 g, and 2.31 g, respectively) under 35% shading and the t/R ratio was the highest under 75% shading. Conclusions: It is concluded that 75% shading exhibited a strong reduction of photosynthetic activity, and 35% shading showed the best conditions for the early growth and cultivation of A. dioicus var. kamtschaticus.

In a methodological approach to improve the processing performance of modulo exponentiation which is the primary arithmetic in RSA crypto algorithm, we present a new RSA hardware architecture based on high-radix modulo multiplication and CRT(Chinese Remainder Theorem). By implementing the modulo multiplier using radix-16 arithmetic, we reduced the number of PE(Processing Element)s by quarter comparing to the binary arithmetic scheme. This leads to having the number of clock cycles and the delay of pipelining flip-flops be reduced by quarter respectively. Because the receiver knows p and q, factors of N, it is possible to apply the CRT to the decryption process. To use CRT, we made two s/2-bit multipliers operating in parallel at decryption, which accomplished 4 times faster performance than when not using the CRT. In encryption phase, the two s/2-bit multipliers can be connected to make a s-bit linear multiplier for the s-bit arithmetic operation. We limited the encryption exponent size up to 17-bit to maintain high speed, We implemented a linear array modulo multiplier by projecting horizontally the DG of Montgomery algorithm. The H/W proposed here performs encryption with 15Mbps bit-rate and decryption with 1.22Mbps, when estimated with reference to Samsung 0.5um CMOS Standard Cell Library, which is the fastest among the publications at present.

In this paper we propos a new hardware architecture of modular exponentiation using a division chain method which has been proposed in (2). Modular exponentiation using the division chain is performed by receding an exponent E as a mixed form of multiplication and addition with divisors d=2 or $d=2^I +1$ and respective remainders r. This calculates the modular exponentiation in about $1.4log_2$E multiplications on average which is much less iterations than $2log_2$E of conventional Binary Method. We designed a linear systolic array multiplier with pipelining and used a horizontal projection on its data dependence graph. So, for k-bit key, two k-bit data frames can be inputted simultaneously and two modular multipliers, each consisting of k/2+3 PE(Processing Element)s, can operate in parallel to accomplish 100% throughput. We propose a new encoding scheme to represent divisors and remainders of the division chain to keep regularity of the data path. When it is synthesized to ASIC using Samsung 0.5 um CMOS standard cell library, the critical path delay is 4.24ns, and resulting performance is estimated to be abort 140 Kbps for a 1024-bit data frame at 200Mhz clock In decryption process, the speed can be enhanced to 560kbps by using CRT(Chinese Remainder Theorem). Futhermore, to satisfy real time requirements we can choose small public exponent E, such as 3,17 or $2^{16} +1$, in encryption and verification process. in which case the performance can reach 7.3Mbps.

In this study, the international standard ISO TS 16774 Part 3 Test Method for Water (wash out) Resistance and KS F 4935 ｢Sealant Injection type for water leakage maintenance of adhesive flexible rubber asphalt series｣, which are standardized as a quality control method of injection type repair materials used for water leakage cracks in underground concrete structures, are currently used in Korea. As a result, considering the performance criteria of "mass change rate -0.1%" stipulated in KS F 4935, the remaining 13 types repair materials, excluding RG-2 of synthetic rubber and UG-1 of urethane, need to be reviewed for stabilization of the loss resistance due to the flow of ground water. The results of this study are determined to be available as a basic indicator for the selection of repair materials used for cracks in concrete structures. In addition, it is expected that the results of this study can be utilized as reference data that can be reflected in the improvement of the quality of repair materials that will be researched and developed later.

This paper is a basic study to improve durability by imparting hydrophobicity to the surface and sphere of cement-based materials. A cement mortar to which a silane/siloxane-based mixed water repellent was added was prepared, and its initial hydration performance, flow performance, and compressive strength were measured. In addition, after the surface was abraded, the water contact angle and water absorption were measured. The flow of cement mortar to which the water repellent was added was found to decrease up to 1.5% in the addition amount of the water repellent agent, and increased at 3.0% in the addition amount. It was found that the setting time of the cement paste was delayed in both the initial setting and the termination when the water repellent was added. It was found that the compressive strength decreased from 3.0% of the maximum added amount of the water repellent to a maximum of 30%. The contact angle was found to increase when the water repellent was added to the cement mortar, and the contact angle after surface polishing was found to be larger than before surface polishing. The addition of the water repellent showed hydrophobicity not only on the surface but also on the surface and cross section damaged by polishing. The water absorption rate was found to decrease when the water repellent was added to the cement mortar, and the water absorption rate after surface polishing was found to be greater than before surface polishing.

In a wave power generation system, the overtopping system is known as an overtopping wave energy converter (OWEC). The performance of an OWEC is affected by wave characteristics such as height and period because its power generation system is sensitive to those characteristics; these, as well as wave direction, depend on the sea. As these characteristics vary, it is hard for the OWEC to produce power in a stable manner. Therefore, it is necessary to find an appropriate shape for an OWEC, according to the characteristics of the sea it is in. This research verified the effect of the design of the OWEC ramp on the hydraulic efficiency using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) particle method. A total of 10 models were designed and used in simulations performed by selecting the design parameters of the ramp and changing the attack angle based on those parameters. The hydraulic efficiency was calculated based on the rate of discharged water obtained from the analysis result. The effect of each variable on the overtopping performance according to the shape of the ramp was then confirmed. In this study, we present suggestions for determining the direction for an appropriately shaped OWEC ramp, based on a specific sea area.

A security SoC that can be used to implement elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) based public-key infrastructures was designed. The security SoC has an architecture in which a hardware accelerator for the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA) is interfaced with the Cortex-A53 CPU using the AXI4-Lite bus. The ECDSA hardware accelerator, which consists of a high-performance ECC processor, a SHA3 hash core, a true random number generator (TRNG), a modular multiplier, BRAM, and control FSM, was designed to perform the high-performance computation of ECDSA signature generation and signature verification with minimal CPU control. The security SoC was implemented in the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device to perform hardware-software co-verification, and it was evaluated that the ECDSA signature generation or signature verification can be achieved about 1,000 times per second at a clock frequency of 150 MHz. The ECDSA hardware accelerator was implemented using hardware resources of 74,630 LUTs, 23,356 flip-flops, 32kb BRAM, and 36 DSP blocks.
