Combining the concept of self-certified public key and message recovery, Li-Zhang-Zhu (LZZ) gives the proxy signature scheme with message recovery using self-certified public key. The security of the proposed scheme is based on the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) and one-way hash function (OWHF). Their scheme accomplishes the tasks of public key verification, proxy signature verification, and message recovery in a logically single step. In addition, their scheme satisfies all properties of strong proxy signature and does not use secure channel in the communication between the original signer and the proxy signer. In this paper, it is shown that in their signature scheme a malicious signer can cheat the system authority (SA), by obtaining a proxy signature key without the permission of the original signer. At the same time malicious original signer can also cheat the SA, he can also obtain a proxy signature key without the permission of the proxy signer. An improved signature scheme is being proposed, which involves the remedial measures to get rid of security flaws of the LZZ et al.'s. The security and performance analysis shows that the proposed signature scheme is maintaining higher level of security, with little bit of computational complexity.

X.435 is the EDI communication protocol published by CCITT and ISO/IEC in 1990. The message types and abstract services of EDI-MS are specified in X.435 recommendation. In this paper, the design methodology on implementation of MSIB in the case that MHS-MS is required to be extended into EDI-MS has been studied. The design methodology presented in this paper is the one using the mapping function of the object relation. This methodology considers the EDI message types and characterictics. The proposed design methodology han an advantage that is able to design the component tables of MSIB satisfying the third normal form and it does not require the normalization processing. The MSIB constructed by the proposed method can store and retrieve multi-values efficiently.

Sustainability is a significant change that fashion industry has undergone. Marketers and brands are looking for guidance in green advertising to most effectively motivate consumers to purchase sustainable fashion products. This study aims to reveal environmental and cultural sustainability claims on message credibility and purchase intention regarding product trendiness. We performed mediation and moderation analyses, using a 2 (sustainability message: environmental and cultural) × 2 (product design: classic vs. trendy) between-subjects experimental design. The PROCESS MACRO was used for the analysis. Results indicate that environmental claim must appear credible to consumers to motivate them to purchase a product. On the other hand, cultural claim, with and without credibility, affected consumer's purchase intention. Moreover, cultural claim and trendy design together influenced message credibility and purchase intention, showing a moderated mediation effect. The study indicates that brands should broaden their perspective regarding sustainability by considering cultural factors when providing sustainability claims. Environmental claim should be clear and transparent to avoid green skepticism. Also, it is important to focus on product's design aspect: making trendy designs. It is difficult to change consumer behavior based only on sustainability value. Thus, brands must coney their consideration of design trends. Theoretical and managerial implications also are discussed.

IoT is becoming more and more popular, along with the massive availability of cheap and easy-to-use IoT devices. One protocol that is often used in IoT devices is the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol. By default, the MQTT protocol does not activate encrypted data security features. This MQTT default feature makes the transmitted and received message data vulnerable to attacks, such as eavesdropping. Therefore, this paper will design and implement encrypted data security using the lightweight cryptography algorithm. The focus of this paper will be on securing MQTT message data at the application layer. We propose a method for encrypting specific MQTT message fields while maintaining compatibility with the protocol's functionalities. The paper then analyzes the timing performance of the MQTT-LEA implementation on the Raspberry Pi 3+. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of using LEA at the application layer to secure MQTT message communication on resource-constrained devices.

This paper proposes an algorithm and hardware architecture for a broadcast communication which has the worst bottleneck among multiprocessor using distributed memory architectures. In conventional systems, collective communication is converted into point-to-point communications by MPI library cell without considering the state of communication port of each processing node which represents the processing node is in busy state or free state. If conflicting point-to-point communication occurs during broadcast communication, the transmitting speed for broadcast communication is decreased. Thus, this paper proposed an algorithm which determines the order of point-to-point communications for broadcast communication according to the state of each processing node. According to the state of each processing node, the proposed algorithm decreases total broadcast communication time by transmitting message preferentially to the processing node with communication port in free state. The proposed MPI unit for broadcast communication is evaluated by modeling it with systemC. In addition, it achieved a highly improved performance for broadcast communication up to 78% with 16 nodes. This result shows the proposed algorithm is useful to improving total performance of MPSoC.

ICMP(Internet Control Message Protocol) is a main protocol in TCP/IP protocol stack. ICMP compensates the disadvantages of the IP that does not support error reporting. If any transmission problem occurred, a router or receiving host sends ICMP message containing the error cause to sending host. However, in this process, an attacker sends a fake ICMP messages to the host so that the communication can be terminated abnormally. An attacker host can paralyzes system of victim host by sending a large number of messages to the victim host at a high rate of speed. To solve this problem, we have designed and implemented outbound traffic controller that prevents various ICMP attacks. By preventing the transmission of attack messages in different ways according to each case, various network attacks can be prevented. In addition, unnecessary network traffic can be filtered before transmitted.

Recently, the most brand new vehicles contain a lot of ECU for comfortable and safety driving environments. For efficient communication network among ECUs, almost car manufactures use CAN protocol which enables to decrease the number of communication lines dramatically and ensures higher data transmission reliability. However, CAN dose not ensure authentication of CAN data frame. So it is vulnerable to replay-attack on CAN data frame. This paper proposes the practical message authentication technique for In-vehicle CAN. To transmit data and MAC together, it is very useful to use the short length of MAC after considering limited space of CAN data frame. However to ensure safety of MAC, additional technique is required. We suggested a message authentication technique that can be usefully applied to build a safety network inside the vehicle because it considers limited data payload of CAN.

This paper tried to examine a relationship between demographic factors(sex, age) and online flaming, and between personality trait(verbal aggression) and flaming. Further, the current study researched the impact of message credibility on significant explaining variables which increase hostile aggressive communication. The research data were collected by a reliable online research center and analysed through SPSS 12.1 software. According to the results, age, sex, and verbal aggression trait were statistically significantly related with flaming. Especially, man, teen age, and the people having high verbal aggression had more frequent flaming behavior than women, other aged people, people with low verbal aggression trait. On the other hand, the message credibility was partially associated with personality trait. The persons who had high verbal aggression trait showed fewer flaming when they met high credible message. This fact might imply that the quality of online contents could decrease online flaming.

Networked virtual environments (NVEs) are distributed systems where geographically dispersed users interact with each other in virtual worlds by exchanging network messages. Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG) is one of diverse applications where more than hundreds of users enjoy experiencing virtual worlds. A limited area called area of interest (AOI) in MMOG is reduced the load caused by message exchange between users. Voronoi-based Overlay Network (VON) is proposed to reduce the bandwidth consumption in P2P environments and Vorocast also is made using message forwarding in VON. We propose a dynamic AOI management method that solves problems such as a consistency and latency due to forwarding position updates to neighbor nodes from the message originator in forwarding scheme. Our scheme provides the consistency and reduces latency by combining direct connection scheme and Vorocast scheme compared to existing schemes. The communication between a user and users existing in center circle within AOI of the user is directly connected and the communication between the user and users existing outside the center area within AOI is using Vorocast scheme. The proposed model is evaluated through simulations.
