In this paper, by using D2D communications that perform direct communications among devices within small transmission range of each device without base station, we assume that a device generates and transmits data packets to other proximate devices and the devices which receive the data packets relay those to other adjacent devices. To maximize the total number of devices which successfully receive data packets, Epidemic routing protocol is considered in this paper. In Epidemic routing protocol, all devices which received data packets try to relay the packets to other adjacent devices. We assume various network environment where devices are densely distributed in specific area(crowded area). In this environment, D2D SD can be a source node and D2D devices can be relay nodes. By setting transmission range of D2D SD and D2D devices as parameters, we analyze performance results of coverage probability of Epidemic routing protocol through intensive simulations.

A 15-Lead ECG has been developed to diagnose posterior wall diseases of the heart that a 12-Lead ECG cannot diagnose. However, 15-Lead ECG data for developing heart-diseases-detecting algorithm are limited, and previous ECG simulators cannot predict the ECG waveform according to the changes in electrode. To solve these problems, the lumped parameter model (LPM), which divides the heart into 15 sections with varying electrical capacitance and electrical resistance. To imitate the electrical conduction in the heart, each node was connected to a current source and delivered the specific current considering the positions and time delay. The purpose of this study is to acquire the waveform that can be used in an ECG by delivering the specific current to LPM.

In this paper, the performance of the soft-decision-and-forward (SDF) protocol in the cooperative communication network with one source, one relay, and one destination, where each node has two transmit and receive antennas, is analyzed in terms of the bit error rate (BER) obtained from the pairwise error probability (PEP). For the slow-varying Rayleigh fading channel, the optimal and suboptimal power allocation ratios are determined without feedback. The optimal power allocation can be obtained by minimizing the average PEP. For the tractability, an alternative strategy of maximizing the product SNR of direct and relay links, which we call the suboptimal power allocation, is considered. Through the numerical analysis, we show that the performance gap between the suboptimal and the optimal power allocation is negligible in the high SNR region.

We analyzed the articles from "Kukje Shinmun" and "Busan Ilbo", which are two local newpapers of Busan Metropolitan City. The articles cover from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013. Meaningful pattern inherent in 2889 articles of which the title includes "Busan" and "Traffic" and related data was analyzed. Textmining method, which is a part of datamining, was used for the social network analysis (SNA). HDFS and MapReduce (from Hadoop ecosystem), which is open-source framework based on JAVA, were used with Linux environment (Uubntu-12.04LTS) for the construction of unstructured data and the storage, process and the analysis of big data. We implemented new algorithm that shows better visualization compared with the default one from R package, by providing the color and thickness based on the weight from each node and line connecting the nodes.

In plants, the oxygen generated by photosynthesis can be excited to form reactive oxygen species (ROS) under excessive sunlight. Excess ROS including singlet oxygen ($^1O_2$) inhibit the growth, development and photosynthesis of plants. To isolate ROS-resistant crop plants, we used paraquat (PQ), a generator of $O_2{^-}$ as a source of screening and mutagen, and obtained two PQ-resistant lines in Pisum sativum, namely R3-1 and R3-2. Both lines showed greater resistance to PQ than their wild type (WT) siblings with respect to germination, root growth, and shoot growth. Biochemical analysis showed differences in these lines, in which ROS-scavenging enzymes undergo changes with a distinguishable increase in Mn-SOD. We further observed that the cytosolic catalases (CATs) in leaves in both lines were shifted in a native-PAGE analysis compared with that of the WT, indicating that the release of bound $^1O_2$ was enhanced. Phenotypic analysis revealed distinguishable differences in leaf development, and in flowering time and position. In addition, R3-1 and R3-2 showed shorter individual inter-node lengths, dwarf plant height, and stronger branching compared with the WT. These results suggested that PQ-induced ROS-resistant Pisum have the potential pleiotropic effects on flowering time and stem branching, and that ROS including $^1O_2$ plays not only important roles in plant growth and development as a signal transducer, but also appears as a strong inhibitor for crop yield.

Wireless ad-hoc routing has been extensively studied and many clever schemes have been proposed over the last several years. One class of ad-hoc routing is geographic routing where each intermediate node independently selects the next hop using the given location information of destination. Geographic routing, which eliminates the overhead of route request packet flooding, is scalable and suitable for large scale ad hoc networks. However, geographic routing may select the long detour paths when there are voids between a source and a destination. In this paper, we propose a novel geographic routing approach called Geographic Landmark Routing(GLR). GLR recursively discovers the intermediate nodes called landmarks and constructs sub-paths that connect the subsequent landmarks. Simulation results on various network topologies show that GLR significantly improves the performance of geographic routing.

The conventional on-demand mobile ad hoc routing algorithms (DSR and AODV) initiate route discovery only after a path breaks, incurring a significant cost and time in detecting the disconnection and establishing a new route. In this theory, we investigate adding proposed pro-active route selection and maintenance to the conventional on-demand mobile ad hoc routing algorithms(DSR and AODV). The key idea is to be only considered likely to be a path break when the received packet power becomes close to the minimum critical power and to be generated the forewarning packet when the signal power of a received packet drops below a optimal threshold value. After generated the forewarning packet, the source node can initiate rout discovery in advance; potentially avoiding the disconnection altogether. Our extensive simulation study shows that the proposed advance-active route selection and maintenance algorithms outperforms the conventional on-demand routing protocol based on DSR and AODV in terms of packet delivery ratio, packet latency and overhead.

We have presented a routing mechanism that selects a route by considering channel statuses in order to fast transfer delay-sensitive data in WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks). The existing methods for real-time data transfer select a path whose latency is the shortest or the number of hops is the smallest. An algorithm to select a real-time transfer path based on link error rates according to the characteristic of wireless medium was also suggested. However, the propagation delay and retransmission timeout affected by link error rates are shorter than channel assessment time and backoff time. Therefore, the mechanism proposed in this paper estimated the time spent in using a clear channel and sending out a packet, which is based on channel backoff rates. A source node comes to select a route with the shortest end-to-end delay as a fast transfer path for real-time traffic, and sends data along the path chosen. We found that this proposed mechanism improves the speed of event-to-sink data transfer by performing experiments under different link error and channel backoff rates.

This paper suggests One-time Password key exchange authentication technique for a strong authentication based on MANET and through identify wireless environment security vulnerabilities, analyzes current authentication techniques. The suggested authentication technique consists of 3 steps: Routing, Registration, and Running. The Routing step sets a safe route using AODV protocol. The Registration and Running step apply the One-time password S/key and the DH-EKE based on the password, for source node authentication. In setting the Session key for safe packet transmission and data encryption, the suggested authentication technique encrypts message as H(pwd) verifiers, performs key exchange and utilizes One time password for the password possession verification and the efficiency enhancement. EKE sets end to end session key using the DH-EKE in which it expounds the identifier to hash function with the modula exponent. A safe session key exchange is possible through encryption of the H(pwd) verifier. The suggested authentication technique requires exponentiation and is applicable in the wireless network environment because it transmits data at a time for key sharing, which proves it is a strong and reliable authentication technique based on the complete MANET.

Macroperforations improve the sound absorption performance of porous materials in acoustic cavities and in waveguides. In an acoustic cavity, enhanced noise reduction is achieved using porous materials having macroperforations. Double porosity materials are obtained by filling these macroperforations with different poroelastic materials having distinct physical properties. The locations of macroperforations in porous layers can be chosen based on cavity mode shapes. In this paper, the effect of variation of macroporosity and double porosity in porous materials on noise reduction in an acoustic cavity is presented. This analysis is done keeping each perforation size constant. Macroporosity of a porous material is the fraction of area covered by macro holes over the entire porous layer. The number of macroperforations decides macroporosity value. The system under investigation is an acoustic cavity having a layer of poroelastic material rigidly attached on one side and excited by an internal point source. The overall sound pressure level (SPL) inside the cavity coupled with porous layer is calculated using mixed displacement-pressure finite element formulation based on Biot-Allard theory. A 32 node, cubic polynomial brick element is used for discretization of both the cavity and the porous layer. The overall SPL in the cavity lined with porous layer is calculated for various macroporosities ranging from 0.05 to 0.4. The results show that variation in macroporosity of the porous layer affects the overall SPL inside the cavity. This variation in macroporosity is based on the cavity mode shapes. The optimum range of macroporosities in poroelastic layer is determined from this analysis. Next, SPL is calculated considering periodic and nodal line based optimum macroporosity. The corresponding results show that locations of macroperforations based on mode shapes of the acoustic cavity yield better noise reduction compared to those based on nodal lines or periodic macroperforations in poroelastic material layer. Finally, the effectiveness of double porosity materials in terms of overall sound pressure level, compared to equivolume double layer poroelastic materials is investigated; for this the double porosity material is obtained by filling the macroperforations based on mode shapes of the acoustic cavity.
