The importance of information security is increasing by the rapid development of the communication network. So, cryptosystems are used to solve these problems and securities of cryptosystems are dependent on keys. In this paper, we propose a key generation method which is based on cryptographically secure MD5 hash function. The basic structure of the MD5 hash function features is a repetitive structure which is processed in a block unit of 512 bits from inputs of limited length and generates a fixed output of 128 bits. The security of proposed method is based on the hash function and the proposed method can be also utilized for authentication algorithm or data encryption algorithm.

Digital watermarks have recently been proposed for the purposes of copyright ptotechtion and autheutication for multimedia contents. A watermarking technique consists of an algorithm that incorporates a watermarking structure into an image in the spatial or frequency domains. In this paper we proposed a new watermarking method for authentication and integrity of digital images and the proposed algorithm uses the MD5 hash funiction and a symmetric key encryption algorithm. To decide the position of embedding watermark and the bit pasitionin the original image, the secret key is used as an input of the MD5 hash function. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has the advantage of difficulty to find positions of inserted watermarks, and keep the similar watermarked image quabty with Wong's method.

This paper dealt with plasmid DNA profile in 98 Salmonella(S) isolated from pigs and cattle sources in Taegu, Gyeongbook and Gyeongnam during the period from 1984 to 1987. Also we were studied for restriction enzyme analysis of the plasmid DNA, and mouse infection, Sereny test and normal setum resistance test in guinea pig for S typhimurium and S enteritidis harbored or cured 60 megadalton(Md) plasmid and 36 Md plasmid, respectively. Of the 13 Salmonella isolated from cattle, 7 Salmonella harbored one or more plasmids and molecular sizes of the large plasmids were 60 Md for S typhimurium and 36 Md for S enteritidis. Of the 85 Salmonella isolated from pigs, 47 Salmonella were confirmed as being one or more plasmids, and all the S typimurium stains harbored 60 Md plasmid. In enzyme digestion with 8 types of restriction endonuclease for 60 Md plasmid DNA of S typhimurium, cleavage patterns were varied to enzymes, and the DNA was segmented into 4 to 15 fragments. In restriction enzyme analysis of 36 Md plasmid DNA obtained from four strains of S. enteritidis, the DNA showed the same cleavage patterns obtained with Eco RI, Hind III and Bam H I, and was segmented into 3 to 5 fragments. In virulence for mice by measuring the 50% lethal dose ($LD_{50}$), the $LD_{50}$ values obtained for 60 Md virulence-associated plasmid harbored strains of S typhimurium and 36 Md virulence-associated plasmid of S enteritidis were up to $10^4$-fold lower than the values obtained for the plasmid-cured strains of the same serotype. Only the plasmid harbored strains were resistant to the bactericidal activity of 90% guinea pig serum, and only they gave positive responses in sereny test. We suggested that their plasmid DNA might be associated with virulence for mice.

The ripening behavior of three apple cultivars, 'Tsugaru', 'Hongro' and 'Fuji' was distinctive and the involvement of POLYGALACTURONASE(PG) in the fruit softening process was confirmed to be ethylene dependent. Fruit softening is genetically coordinated by the action of several cell wall enzymes, including PG which depolymerizes cell wall pectin. Also, loss of firmness is associated with increasing of the ripening hormone, ethylene. In this work, climacteric ripening of three apple cultivars, Tsugaru, Hongro and Fuji, producing different ethylene levels and ripening responses, was examined. Correspondingly in Fuji, a linear and basal ethylene level was observed over the entire period of measurements, and Tsugaru and Hongro displayed a typical climacteric rise in ethylene production. Transcript accumulation of genes involved in ethylene biosynthesis (MdACS3 and MdACO1) and MdPG1 was studied in Tsugaru, Hongro and Fuji cultivars. Expression of MdACO1 transcripts was shown in all three ripened apple fruits. However, the MdACS3 and MdPG1 were transcribed differently in these cultivars. Comparing the MdPG1 of 'Tsugaru', 'Hongro' and 'Fuji', structural difference was discovered by genomic Southern analysis. Overall results pointed out that MdACS3 and MdPG1 play an important role in regulation of fruit ripening in apple cultivar.

Membrane distillation (MD) is a thermally driven desalination process with a hydrophobic membrane. MD process has been known to have a lower fouling potential compared to other pressure-based membrane desalination process (NF, RO). However, membrane fouling also occurs in MD process. In this study, the membrane fouling was observed in MD process according to the pre-treatment processes. The filtration and precipitation processes were applied as the pre-treatment to prevent the membrane fouling. The pore sizes of roughing filters were 0.4, 5, 10, 30, and $60{\mu}m$. The concentration of the coagulant was 1.2 mg/L as $FeCl_3$. The membrane fouling on MD membrane was successfully removed with both pre-treatment processes.

This study aims to evaluate whether the accuracy of LiDAR DEM is affected by the changes of the five input levels ('1','3','5','7' and '9') of median parameter ($F_{md}$), mean parameter ($F_{mn}$) of the Filtering Algorithm (FA) in the GroundFilter module and median parameter ($I_{md}$), mean parameter ($I_{mn}$) of the Interpolation Algorithm (IA) in the GridSurfaceCreate module of the FUSION in order to present the combination of parameter levels producing the most accurate LiDAR DEM. The accuracy is measured by the residuals calculated by difference between the field elevation values and their corresponding DEM elevation values. A multi-way ANOVA is used to statistically examine whether there are effects of parameter level changes on the means of the residuals. The Tukey HSD is conducted as a post-hoc test. The results of the multi- way ANOVA test show that the changes in the levels of $F_{md}$, $F_{mn}$, $I_{mn}$ have significant effects on the DEM accuracy with the significant interaction effect between $F_{md}$ and $F_{mn}$. Therefore, the level of $F_{md}$, $F_{mn}$, and the interaction between two variables are considered to be factors affecting the accuracy of LiDAR DEM as well as the level of $I_{mn}$. As the results of the Tukey HSD test on the combination levels of $F_{md}{\ast}F_{mn}$, the mean of residuals of the '$9{\ast}3$' combination provides the highest accuracy while the '$1{\ast}1$' combination provides the lowest one. Regarding $I_{mn}$ levels, the mean of residuals of the both '3' and '1' provides the highest accuracy. This study can contribute to improve the accuracy of the forest attributes as well as the topographic information extracted from the LiDAR data.

DNS는 인터넷상에서 도메인 네임과 IP 주소간의 상호 전환의 동작을 수행하는 시스템이다. DNS상에서 도메인 네임이나 IP 주소를 요청하는 질의나 이에 대한 응답은 네트워크상에서 UDP를 사용한 메시지 형식으로 전송한다. 이때 제 3자의 개입에 의한 조작의 가능성이 있다. 이러한 질의와 응답 메시지의 조작을 방지하고자 RFS2065에서는 RSA 공개키 방식을 사용하였다. RSA 공개키 방식은 현제 국내에서 직접사용하기에는 많은 애로 사항이 있으며 속도 측면에서 좋지 않은 면을 보여준다. 본 논문에서는 Pseudonoise Sequence와 MD5를 사용하여 DNS 상에서의 안전한 질의 응답을 가능하게 하고자 한다. Pseudonoise Sequence와 MD5를 사용함으로써 메시지를 암오화하지않아도 되며 또한 많은 계산을 요구하지 않는다. 메시지에 Pseudonoise Sequence를 기입하고, 그 메시지의 MD5를 송수신 측에서 검사함으로써 제 3자 개입에 의한 조작 방지와 메시지 데이터의 무결성을 보할 수 있다.

스마트 환경에 관심이 높아지면서 무선 센서 네트워크를 이용한 유비쿼터스 시스템을 실생활에 활용하려는 노력이 이어지고 있다. 무선 센서 네트워크는 무선 통신으로 정보를 수집하기 때문에 실생활에 적용할 경우 사생활 정보가 유출될 가능성을 가진다. 본 논문은 데이터 전송 과정에서 데이터가 유출되었을 때, 원본 데이터로의 해독을 어렵게 하는 해시 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 단 방향 해시 함수인 MD5를 변형한 TinyMD5를 이용하여 데이터를 변환하고, MD5를 변형하면서 발생하는 해시 값 충돌 문제를 해결할 수 있는 기법을 추가하였다. 제안하는 알고리즘의 우수성을 보이기 위해 기존의 기법과 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 비교 평가하였다. 성능 평가 결과, 제안하는 알고리즘은 통신 에너지를 기존 알고리즘의 평균 29%만을 소모하였다.

Membrane distillation (MD) is a process used for water desalination. However, its commercialization is still hindered by its increased specific cost of production. In this work, several process configurations comprising Direct Contact and Permeate Gap distillation membrane units (PGMD/DCMD) were investigated to maximize the production rate and consequently reduce the specific water cost. The analysis was based on a cost model and an experimentally validated MD model. It was revealed that the best achievable water cost was approximately 5.1 $/㎥ with a production rate of 8000 ㎥/y. This cost can be further decreased to approximately 2 $/㎥ only if the heating and cooling energies are free of cost. Therefore, it is necessary to decrease the MD capital investment to produce pure water at economical prices.
