In industrial production settings, scheduling problems for detailed day-to-day operations are often ordeals to production practitioners. For those who have scheduling experiences with the Gantt Chart, the job oriented heuristic scheduling has illustrated its merits in solving practically large scale scheduling problems. It schedules all operations of a job within a finite capacity before considering the next job. In this paper, we Introduce the LSB (load smoothing backward) scheduling algorithm for the job oriented heuristic scheduling. Through a computer experiment in a hypothetical setting, we make a performance comparison of LSB scheduling algorithm with existing algorithms and also suggest a guideline for selecting the suitable algorithm for certain industrial settings.

This paper describes a CMOS digital-to-analog converter to apply a newly-developed digital-to-analog conversion algorithm. The CMOS digital-to-analog converter has been designed by using 1.2$\mu\textrm{m}$ MOSIS SCMOS parameter and simulated for the performance. The simulated results have shown that the digital-to-analog converter has 200MHz of the maximum conversion rate, 7.41mW of the DC power consumption, and ${\pm}$0.08LSB of INL and ${\pm}$0.098LSB of DNL in 8-b.

This paper presents a new adaptive LSB steganography for high capacity in spatial color images. The number of least signi ficant bit (LSB) of each RGB component in a color image pixel, to replace with the data bits to be hidden, was determine d through analysis of the worst case peak signal noise ratio (PSNR). In addition, the combination of the number of bits is determined adaptively according to image content. That is, 70% of the data to be hidden is proposed to be replaced with 3 bit LSB of two components, 2 bit LSB of the rest component, and 30% be replaced with 4 bit LSB of each RGB compon ent. To find edge areas in an image, delta sorting in local area is also suggested. Using the proposed method, the data cap acity is 9.2 bits per pixel (bpp). The average PSNR value of the tested images with concealed data of up to 60Kbyte was 43.9 db and also natural histograms were generated.

Steganography is a technique that uses hidden messages to prevent anyone apart from knowing the existence of a secret message, except the sender and trusted recipients. This paper applies 24 bit color image as cover medium. And a 24-bit color image has three components corresponding to red, green and blue. This paper proposes an image steganography method that uses Triple-A algorithm to hide the secret (Hangul) message by arbitrarily selecting the number of LSB bits and the color channel to be used. This paper divides the secret character into the chosung, jungsung and jongsung, and applies crossover, encryption and arbitrary insertion positions to enhance robustness and confidentiality. Experimental results of the proposed method show that insertion capacity and correlation are excellent and acceptable image quality level. Also, considering the image quality, it was confirmed that the size of LSB should be less than 2.

As various users increase in a network environment, it is difficult to protect sensitive and confidential information transmitted and received from attackers. Concealing bitwise secret data in an image using the LSB technique can be very vulnerable to attack. To solve this problem, a hybrid method that combines encryption and information hiding is used. Therefore, an effective method for users to securely protect secret messages and implement secret communication is required. A new approach is needed to improve security and imperceptibility to ensure image quality. In this paper, I propose an LSB steganography technique that hides Hangul messages in a cover image based on MSB and LSB. At this time, after separating Hangul into chosung, jungsung and jongsung, the secret message is applied with Exclusive-OR or Exclusive-NOR operation depending on the selected MSB. In addition, the calculated secret data is hidden in the LSB n bits of the cover image converted by Fibonacci technique. PSNR was used to confirm the effectiveness of the applied results. It was confirmed 41.517(dB) which is suitable as an acceptable result.

LSB-based steganography is a simple and well known information hiding technique. In most LSB based techniques, a secret message is embedded into a specific position of LSB in the cover pixels. On the other hand, the main threat of LSB-based steganography is steganalysis. This paper proposes an asynchronous-cellular-automata(ACA)-based steganographic method, where secret bits are embedded into the selected position inside the cover pixel by ACA rule 51 and a secret key. As a result, it is very difficult for malicious users to retrieve a secret message from a cover image without knowing the secret key, even if the extraction algorithm is known. In addition, another layer of security is provided by almost random (rule-based) selection of a cover pixel for embedding using ACA and a different secret key. Finally, the experimental results show that the proposed method can be secured against the well-known steganalysis RS-attack.

Experimental results on a 4-bit charge-coupled A/D converter are described. Major operations in the successive approximation algorithm are implemented in a monolithic chip, CCADC, which was fabricated usir p-channel CCD technology, with its die size of 4,200 mil2 Typical operating frequency range has been found out to be from 500Hz to 200kHz. In that frequency range, no missing code has been found in the whole signal range of 2.4 volts for ramp signal slewing at 1 LSB/(sampling time). A discussion is made on several layout techniques to conserve the nominal binary ratio of (8:4:2:1) among the areas of four adjacent potential wells (M wells), whose charge storing capacities correspond to each bit magnitude - 3.6 pC, 1.8 pC, 0.9 pC, and 0.45 pC nominal in the order of MSB to the LSB. The effect of 'dump slot', which is responsible for the excessive nonlinearity (2$\frac{1}{2}$LSB) in the A/D converter, is explained. A novel input scheme called 'slot zero insertion' to circumvent the deleterious effects of the dump slot is described with the experimental results.

In this paper, we deal with block cipher algorithm IDEA(international data encryption algorithm), previously known as typical block cipher system. first of all, analysing key scheduler we classify the key sequences with the used key bit and the unused key bits in each round. with this properties we propose the two method, which are differential analysis using differences of plaintext pairs and linear analysis using LSB bit of plaintexts and key sequences.

Recently, several steganographic algorithms for two-color binary images have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a steganographic algorithm which embeds a secret message into bitmap images and palette-based images. To embed a message, the suggested algorithm divides a bitmap image into bit-plane images from LSB-plane to MSB-plane for each pixel, and considers each bit-plane image as a binary one. The algorithm splits each bit-plane image into m$\times$n blocks. and embeds a r-bit(r=[log$_2$(mn+1]-1) message into the block. And our schemes embed a message to every bit-plane from LSB to MSB to maximize the amount of embedded message and to minimize the degradation. The schemes change at most two pixels in each block. Therefore, the maximal color changes of the new algorithm are much smaller than other bit-plane embedding schemes' such as the substantial substitution schemes.
