There are a great number of Internet-connected devices and their information can be acquired through an Internet-wide scanning tool. By associating device information with publicly known security vulnerabilities, security experts are able to determine whether a particular device is vulnerable. Currently, the identification of the device information and its related vulnerabilities is manually carried out. It is necessary to automate the process to identify a huge number of Internet-connected devices in order to analyze more than one hundred thousand security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we propose a method of automatically generating device information in the Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) format from banner text to discover potentially weak devices having the Common Vulnerabilities Exposures (CVE) vulnerability. We demonstrated that our proposed method can distinguish as much adequate CPE information as possible in the service banner.

An optimally labelled graph of bandwidth 2 is an ordered pair (G, f) where G is a simple graph with bw(G) = 2 and $f:V(G){\rightarrow}[n]$ is a bijection such that bw(G, f) = 2. In this paper, the number of optimally labelled graphs of bandwidth two of order n is enumerated by counting linear forests.

Eubacterium is one of the predominant bacteria in the human large intestine. currently ES (Eubacterium Selective) medium developed by T. Mitsuoka is commonly used as a selective medium. neomycin sulfate which is one of the selective agents of ES medium inhibited about 50% of the growth of Eubacterium isolated, whereas malidixic acid inhibited only 5% while inhibiting other intestinal bacteria. NES medium which replaced neomycin with nalidixic acid in the ES medium was designed and shown to be better for the isolation and enumeration of Eubacterium sp. than ES medium.

I develop a transfer matrix algorithm for computing the geometric quantities of a square lattice polymer with nearest-neighbor interactions. The radius of gyration, the end-to-end distance, and the monomer-to-end distance were computed as functions of the temperature. The computation time scales as ${\lesssim}1.8^N$ with a chain length N, in contrast to the explicit enumeration where the scaling is ${\sim}2.7^N$. Various techniques for reducing memory requirements are implemented.

The dissemination and use of mobile applications have been rapidly expanding these days. And in such a situation, the security of mobile applications has emerged as a new issue. Although the safety of general software such as desktop and enterprise software is systematically achieved from the development phase to the verification phase through secure coding, there have been not sufficient studies on the safety of mobile applications yet. This paper deals with deriving weakness enumeration specialized in mobile applications and implementing a tool that can automatically analyze the derived weakness. Deriving the weakness enumeration can be achieved based on CWE(Common Weakness Enumeration) and CERT(Computer Emergency Response Team) relating to the event-driven method that is generally used in developing mobile applications. The analysis tool uses the dynamic tests to check whether there are specified vulnerabilities in the source code of mobile applications. Moreover, the derived vulnerability could be used as a guidebook for programmers to develop mobile applications.

Recently, systems such as aircraft, trains and ships have become larger more complex. Therefore, the reliability calculation of these systems is more difficult. This paper presents a reliability calculation algorithm for a complex system with a solution that is difficult to analyze. When the system has a very complex structure, it is very difficult to find an analytical solution. In this case, we can assess system reliability using the failure enumeration method of the reliability path. In this research, we represent the reliability block diagram by an adjacent matrix and define the reliability path. We can find any system status by the failure enumeration of the reliability path, and thus we can calculate any kind of system reliability through this process. This result can be applied to RCM (Reliability-Centered Maintenance) and reliability information-management systems, in which the system reliability is composed of the reliabilities of individual parts.

Background: The microsporidian parasite Nosema ceranae is a global problem in honeybee populations and is known to cause winter mortality. A sensitive and rapid tool for stable quantitative detection is necessary to establish further research related to the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of this pathogen. Objectives: The present study aimed to develop a quantitative method that incorporates ultra-rapid real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (UR-qPCR) for the rapid enumeration of N. ceranae in infected bees. Methods: A procedure for UR-qPCR detection of N. ceranae was developed, and the advantages of molecular detection were evaluated in comparison with microscopic enumeration. Results: UR-qPCR was more sensitive than microscopic enumeration for detecting two copies of N. ceranae DNA and 24 spores per bee. Meanwhile, the limit of detection by microscopy was 2.40 × 10⁴ spores/bee, and the stable detection level was ≥ 2.40 × 10⁵ spores/bee. The results of N. ceranae calculations from the infected honeybees and purified spores by UR-qPCR showed that the DNA copy number was approximately 8-fold higher than the spore count. Additionally, honeybees infected with N. ceranae with 2.74 × 10⁴ copies of N. ceranae DNA were incapable of detection by microscopy. The results of quantitative analysis using UR-qPCR were accomplished within 20 min. Conclusions: UR-qPCR is expected to be the most rapid molecular method for Nosema detection and has been developed for diagnosing nosemosis at low levels of infection.

This study was carried out to investigate the bacterial contamination of retailed beef and pork in Seoul area. For this study 44 samples were collected at butcheries and department stores from March to April, 1987 and were examined on the following items. 1. Comparison of bacterial contamination between butcheries and department stores. 2. Degree of bacterial enumeration by repair method of injured microorganisms in the frozen beef and pork. 3. Degree of bacterial contamination in the frozen beef and pork. As the result of this study, the following conclusions were obtained. 1. Difference of bacterial contamination between butcheries and department stores was not significant. 2. Enumeration of total bacterial count by solid repair procedure resulted in about 1.5-fold increase in beef and about 1.8-fold increase in port. 3. Enumeration of total coliform count by liquid repair procedure resulted in about 32.1-fold increase in beef and about 12.0-fold in pork. 4. Salmonella species were not detected, but Staphylococcus species were detected 8 cases (18.2%) in beef, 7 cases (15.9%) in pork. 5. In total bacterial count, all beef samples were lower than 10$^6$/g, but 2 pork samples were higher than 10$^6$/g. 6. The ratio of total coliform count to total bacterial count was 0.07 in beef, 0.05 in pork by standard method and 0.48 in beef, 0.25 in pork by repair method.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of environmental factor such as temperature, salinity, turbidity, pH and dissolved oxygen on the growth of Vibrio spp.. In this survey, total 56 seawater samples were obtained from 8 different sites of the Incheon coastal area during the periods from april 2008 to october 2008. Enumeration of Vibrio spp. was determined by using the most probable number(MPN) procedure. Isolation rates of V. parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus, V. cholerae in all samples tested were 44.0%, 21.4% and 13.1%, respectively. The enumeration of Vibrio spp. was very low correlated with water temperature and pH and negatively correlated with salinity, dissolved oxygen and turbidity. We found salinity to be the parameter most highly correlated with the enumeration of Vibrio spp. The highest rate of antibiotic resistance of V.vulnificus and V.parahaemolyticus was Cefazolin(11.5%), Ampicillin(70.8%), respectively.

In this paper, we study a special class of linear codes, called skew cyclic codes, over the ring $R=F_p+vF_p$, where $p$ is a prime number and $v^2=v$. We investigate the structural properties of skew polynomial ring $R[x,{\theta}]$ and the set $R[x,{\theta}]/(x^n-1)$. Our results show that these codes are equivalent to either cyclic codes or quasi-cyclic codes. Based on this fact, we give the enumeration of distinct skew cyclic codes over R.
