The results from the analysis of recent security breach cases of industrial control systems revealed that most of them were caused by the employees of a partner company who had been managing the control system. For this reason, the majority of the current company security management systems have been developed focusing on their performances. Despite such effort, many hacking attempts against a major company, public institution or financial institution are still attempted by the partner company or outsourced employees. Thus, the institutions or organizations that manage Industrial Control Systems (ICSs) associated with major national infrastructures involving traffic, water resources, energy, etc. are putting emphasis on their security management as the role of those partners is increasingly becoming important as outsourcing security task has become a common practice. However, in reality, it is also a fact that this is the point where security is most vulnerable and various security management plans have been continuously studied and proposed. A system that enhances the security level of a partner company with a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) has been developed in this study through research on the past performances of partner companies stationed at various types of industrial control infrastructures and its performance outcomes were statistically compiled to propose an appropriate model for the current ICSs by comparing vulnerabilities, measures taken and their results before and after adopting the VDI.

The paper introduces a model for evaluating and prioritizing mobile quality attributes and refactoring techniques through the examination of their effectiveness during the mobile application development process. The astonishing evolution of software and hardware has increased the demand for techniques and best practices to overcome the many challenges related to mobile devices, such as those concerning device storage, network bandwidth, and energy consumption. A number of studies have investigated the influence of refactoring, leading to the enhancement of mobile applications and the overcoming of code issues as well as hardware issues. Furthermore, rapid and continuous mobile developments make it necessary for teams to apply effective techniques to produce reliable mobile applications and reduce time to market. Thus, we investigated the influence of various refactoring techniques on mobile applications to understand their effectiveness in terms of quality attributes. First, we extracted the most important mobile refactoring techniques and a set of quality attributes from the literature. Then, mobile application developers from nine mobile application teams were recruited to evaluate and prioritize these quality attributes and refactoring techniques for their projects. A prioritization-based model is examined that integrates the lightweight multi-criteria decision making method, called the best-worst method, with the process of refactoring within mobile applications. The results prove the applicability and suitability of adopting the model for the mobile development process in order to expedite application production while using well-defined procedures to select the best refactoring techniques. Finally, a variety of quality attributes are shown to be influenced by the adoption of various refactoring techniques.

Objectives: This paper describes an experience of implementing seamless service trials online and offline by adopting Internet of Things (IoT) technology based on near-field communication (NFC) tags and Bluetooth low-energy (BLE) beacons. The services were provided for both patients and health professionals. Methods: The pilot services were implemented to enhance healthcare service quality, improve patient safety, and provide an effective business process to health professionals in a tertiary hospital in Seoul, Korea. The services to enhance healthcare service quality include healing tours, cancer information/education, psychological assessments, indoor navigation, and exercise volume checking. The services to improve patient safety are monitoring of high-risk inpatients and delivery of real-time health information in emergency situations. In addition, the services to provide an effective business process to health professionals include surveys and web services for patient management. Results: Considering the sustainability of the pilot services, we decided to pause navigation and patient monitoring services until the interference problem could be completely resolved because beacon signal interference significantly influences the quality of services. On the other hand, we had to continue to provide new wearable beacons to high-risk patients because of hygiene issues, so the cost increased over time and was much higher than expected. Conclusions: To make the smart connected hospital services sustainable, technical feasibility (e.g., beacon signal interference), economic feasibility (e.g., continuous provision of new necklace beacons), and organizational commitment and support (e.g., renewal of new alternative medical devices and infrastructure) are required.

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is an infrastructure-less network that can configure itself without any centralized management. The topology of MANET changes dynamically which makes it open for new nodes to join it easily. The openness area of MANET makes it very vulnerable to different types of attacks. One of the most dangerous attacks is the Resource Consumption Attack (RCA). In this type of attack, the attacker consumes the normal node energy by flooding it with bogus packets. Routing in MANET is susceptible to RCA and this is a crucial issue that deserves to be studied and solved. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to study the impact of RCA on two routing protocols namely, Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR); as a try to find the most resistant routing protocol to such attack. The contribution of this paper is a new RCA model (RCAM) which applies RCA on the two chosen routing protocols using the NS-2 simulator.

폐FRP의 로빙층을 매트층과 수지로부터 분리하여 섬유 형태의 'F섬유'를 얻었으며, 이것의 용도로 콘크리트 제품 또는 구조물을 고려하였다. 골재는 시멘트의 2.45 배(무게비)로 하고 F섬유(밀도 1.45)는 시멘트와 골재의 부피비로 계산하여 만든 공시체에 대한 휨강도를 실험하였다. 1%의 F섬유를 갖는 것이 양생한 지 28일째 되었을 때 넣지 않은 것에 비해 23%의 강도 증가를 보였다. 그러나 0.5%를 포함한 공시체의 경우는 강도의 변화를 보이지 않음으로써 강도 보강용으로 쓰일 수 있는 최소 혼입량이 0.5% 보다는 크다는 것을 알았다. 철근 콘크리트 시제품인 벤치 플룸의 경우 1% F섬유를 포함할 때 포함하지 않은 것에 비해 휨강도가 21%증가하였다.

Exposure to stress is known to precipitate or exacerbate many reproductive dysfunctions such as dysmenorrhea and infertility. Abnormalities of the reproductive system, as shown by reduced ovulation, fertilization and early embryonic development, are frequently seen in dysmenorrhea and infertility. It has been generally accepted that Gamisoyosan (GSS) is a useful prescription for treating insomnia, dysmenorrhea and infertility induced by a stress. Also GSS has been used traditionally to improve systemic circulation and biological energy production. Based on these, this study investigates whether GSS improved ovarian dysfunction caused by stress in mice. Mice were subjected to stress by electric shock on the foot for 30 min daily for a week and treated with GSS at 500 / body weight per day for one week. Thereafter, changes body weight, adrenal weight, ovulation rate, in vitro and in vivo fertilization, embryonic development and estradiol concentrations were measured. GSS markedly increased the body weight of mice with stress, but not normal mice. The administration of GSS caused a reduction in adrenal weight in stressed mice. GSS also had significant positive effects on ovulation rate, estradiol production, in vivo and in vitro fertilization rates and embryonic development. These results indicate that GSS can improve the reproductive dysfunctions caused by stress, and these may production biological energy.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as regulators of gene expression by binding to the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of target genes. They perform important biological functions in the various species. Among many miRNAs, miR-21-3p is known to serve vital functions in development and apoptosis in olive flounder. Using genomic and bioinformatic tools, evolutionary conservation of miR-21-3p was examined in various species, and expression pattern was analyzed in olive flounder. Conserved sequences (5'-CAGUCG-3') in numerous species were detected through the stem-loop structure of miR-21-3p. Thus, we analyzed target genes of miR-21-3p. Among them, 3' UTR region of PPIL2 gene indicated the highest binding affinity with miR-21-3p based on the minimum free energy value. The PPIL2 gene showed high expression levels in testis tissue of the olive flounder, whereas miR-21-3p showed rather ubiquitous expression patterns except in testis tissue, indicating that miR-21-3p seems to control the PPIL2 gene expression in a complementary repression manner in various tissues of olive flounder. Taken together, this current study contributes to infer the target gene candidates for the miR-21-3p using bioinformatics tools. Furthermore, our data offers important information on the relationship between miR-21-3p and target gene for further functional study.

환경문제를 야기시켰던 해상용 FRP재활용에 대해 지난 10여 년간 다양한 국가적 지원이 이루어져서 폐FRP로부터 콘크리트 강화용 섬유 제작이 진행되어 왔다. 이렇게 제작된 강화 콘크리트에 대해 구조적 능력까지 시험한 바 있다. 시험 테스트 결과 재활용 FRP 가루를 사용한 콘크리트는 고강도 콘크리트의 압축강도를 감소시키지 않았을 뿐 만 아니라, 고강도 콘크리트의 내폭 특성을 상당히 증대시켰다. 그러나 폐FRP로부터 매트층의 분리 방법이 안정화되지 않았기 때문에 폐FRP 섬유 가루의 특성에 대한 연구는 종결되지 않았다. 본 연구는 폐FRP로부터 매트층을 분리하는 효과적이며 친환경적인 새로운 방법에 관한 것이며, 이것은 내폭성이 강한 제품이나 구조물에 적합한 FRP섬유가루 생산 공정에 유용한 재활용 공정이라 생각한다.

FRP선박의 친환경적 recycle에 있어서 현재 가장 선호되는 방법은 기계적 방법에 의한 파쇄와 분쇄를 거친 후 화학적 처리 또는 추가 첨가제 등을 활용하여 재활용 또는 재사용하는 방법이다. 재활용 방법 중에서는 콘크리트 제품의 잔골재 대용으로 사용하는 것이 주된 재활용 방법이다. 따라서 세계 각국에서는 FRP선박의 재활용(재자원화)을 위하여 실용성과 안정성을 지니는 많은 기계적 처리 및 활용방법에 대한 연구 개발을 진행하여왔다. 특히 국제적으로 파쇄된 FRP재료를 폴리머시멘트에 활용한 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔음에도 기계적 처리 방법의 환경적 문제(2차오염)와 폴리머시멘트의 활용도의 한계가 FRP재활용 사업의 확대를 어렵게 하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 FRP선박을 친환경적으로 일괄처리 할 수 있는 재처리시스템과 그 결과물을 재활용한 콘크리트제품의 실용화 가능성을 실험하였다.

FRP 선박의 recycle에 대한 현재의 연구방향은 여러 가지로 분류 할 수 있다, 그러나 현재의 기술적, 사회경제적 관점에서 가장 선호되는 방법은 '기계적 방법'으로 파쇄와 분쇄를 거친 후 화학적 처리 또는 추가 첨가제 등을 활용하여 재활용 또는 재사용하는 방법이다. 따라서 세계 각국에서는 FRP선박의 페처리 또는 재활용(재자원화)을 위하여 실용성과 안정성을 지니는 많은 기계적 방법에 대한 연구 개발을 진행하여왔다. 그러나 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔음에도 기계적 처리 방법의 두 가지 문제, 즉 파쇄공정 중의 2차오염 및 재자원화 용도의 한계가 아직도 기계적 재활용의 확대를 어렵게 하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 두 문제에 대한 적극적 해결 방안으로서 FRP의 복합재료특성(직교 이방성과 복합적층 구조 등)을 응용한 파쇄 및 파쇄물의 친환경적 분류 처리 방안을 설명하고자 한다.
