In this study, software-based countermeasures against a side-channel cryptanalysis of the Rabbit stream cipher were developed using Moteiv's Tmote Sky, a popular wireless sensor mote based on the Berkeley TelosB, as the target platform. The countermeasures build upon previous work by improving mask generation, masking and hiding other components of the algorithm, and introducing a key refreshment scheme. Our contribution brings improvements to previous countermeasures making the implementation resistant to higher-order attacks. Four functional metrics, namely resiliency, robustness, resistance, and scalability, were used for the assessment. Finally, performance costs were measured using memory usage and execution time. In this work, it was demonstrated that although attacks can be feasibly carried out on unprotected systems, the proposed countermeasures can also be feasibly developed and deployed on resource-constrained devices, such as wireless sensors.

본 논문은 다중 센서를 채택한 무선 센서 노드의 효율적인 데이터 메시지 전송 방법에 대한 고찰에서 시작되었다. 이를 위해 TinyOS-1.x 기반의 SurgeTelos 어플리케이션을 기반으로 하여 다중 센서를 전송하는 어플리케이션을 구현하였다. 구현 과정에서, TinyOS에서 제공하는 SurgeTelos는 한 개의 센서 값 전송을 지원하도록 설계 되었는데, 이는 본 연구에서 수행하고자 하는 다중 센서값의 전송 어플리케이션에는 부적합하여, 다중 센서의 효율적인 전송을 위해 Timer 인터럽트에 의한 주기적 데이터 전송 방법을 적용한 신규 어플리케이션을 개발하게 되었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 다중 센서값의 전송을 위한 Periodic 데이터 전송 방법의 효용성에 대해서 살펴보고, 추후 확장 가능한 센서의 수에 대해 알아 보고자 한다.

It is necessary for developing specific application protocol for mobile sensor end nodes and data collection devices that have constrained resources and computing powers. Because of these needs, IETF WG developed CoAP protocol and Internet draft was released, and processing to international standardization of this protocol. Because sensor nodes and information collection devices have restricted resources and computing powers, there are some limitations for applying to this proposed protocol directly. Thus in this paper we shows the implementation of full CoAP protocol for server, works on Linux and CoAP-Lite over telos which works on TinyOS for information collection devices. In this implementation we verified the main activities of CoAP protocol over USN by modifying some hardware with dependent algorithm.

Traditional radio-based gesture recognition approaches usually require the target to carry a device (e.g., an EMG sensor or an accelerometer sensor). However, such requirement cannot be satisfied in many applications. For example, in smart home, users want to control the light on/off by some specific hand gesture, without finding and pressing the button especially in dark area. They will not carry any device in this scenario. To overcome this drawback, in this paper, we propose three algorithms able to recognize the target gesture (mainly the human hand gesture) without carrying any device, based on just Radio Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). Our platform utilizes only 6 telosB sensor nodes with a very easy deployment. Experiment results show that the successful recognition radio can reach around 80% in our system.

Purposes: The purpose of this study was to report surgical technique of double bundle anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction and to compare the short-term clinical results between arthroscopic single-bundle and double-bundle ACL reconstruction. Materials and Methods: From May 2005 to May 2006, ninety-eight patients were underwent ACL reconstruction. We designed prospective study with sixty-one patients who were revealed isolated ACL injury. We serially checked clinical and radiologic data preoperatively and postoperatively. We compared single-bundle with double-bundle ACL reconstruction patients with preoperative datas and postoperatively 1-year data. There were 30 single bundle reconstruction and 31 double bundle reconstruction. Stability was assessed objectively by anterior stress radiographs with the $Telos^{(R)}$ device and the maximal manual test with the KT-2000 arthrometer. The clinical results were assessed by IKDC(International Knee Documentation Committee) and OAK(Orthopadische Arbeitsgruppe Knie) scores. Also, we evaluated postoperative thigh circumference and range of motion. All of operations were done by only one surgeon. Results: At single-bundle reconstruction group, preoperative AP instability which was checked by $Telos^{(R)}$ device and the maximal manual test with the KT-2000 arthrometer was $7.9{\pm}3.3$ and $7.4{\pm}2.0$, respectively. At double-bundle reconstruction group, it was $8.3{\pm}3.5$ and $7.9{\pm}3.2$, respectively. Residual AP laxity checked at 1 year after operation was $1.9{\pm}1.2$ and $2.2{\pm}1.6$ in single-bundle reconstruction group, and $1.1{\pm}0.9$ and $1.0{\pm}1.0$ in double-bundle reconstruction group. So, double-bundle reconstruction had better results in both anterior stress radiographs with the $Telos^{(R)}$ device and the maximal manual test with the KT-2000 arthrometer, and there were significant differences in statistics. But, clinical results such as IKDC(International Knee Documentation Committee) scores, OAK(Orthopadische Arbeitsgruppe Knie) scores, thigh circumference and range of motion had no significant difference between two groups. Conclusions: On the basis of stability, the side-to-side anterior laxity of double-bundle ACL reconstruction was significantly better than that of single-bundle reconstruction, although there were no significant differences in the other clinical measures among them.

Purpose : We observed usability of allograft by evaluating the clinical results, second look arthroscopic and histologic findings at last follow up after anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction using by fresh frozen Achilles allograft. Materials and Methods : We analyzed in 58 patients(59 cases) by subjective and objective parameters, Telos stress arthrometer and Modified Feagin Scoring System. The average age and follow up period was 25 years(ranging from 18 to 49 years), and 15 months(ranging from 12 to 19 months). Among them we studied second look arthroscopic and histologic findings in 16 patients. Results : The mean Lysholm Score wits improved from 60 to 88.2 as well the anterior translation was improved from 7.1 min to 2.3mm at last follow up. The second look arthroscopic findings were close to normal in ligament thickness, tension and showed revasculization at the holly attachment site. Light microscope(LM) findings showed dense cellularity like a normal ligament. In electron microscope(EM) collagen fibrils showed parallel arrangement longitudinally and unimodal pattern diameter close to normal tissue in the transverse section. Conclusion : We think that the fresh frozen Achilles allograft is a good substitution of autograft in cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical result and the gait patterns for patients who had undergone the arthroscopic posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction using Achilles allograft. Materials and Methods: Among the patient who had undergone the arthroscopic PCL reconstruction using fresh-frozen Achilles allograft between March 2004 to March 2005, we selected 12 patients who compliance to our rehabilitation program. Clinical result and gait analysis were carried out at 36 months postoperatively. There were measured by using range of motion (ROM), Lysholm knee score, Tegner activity score, IKDC score, posterior stress test, and posterior translation measured by using Telos stress arthrometer. Kinematic gait analysis was carried out using 3-dimensional gait analysis system. Results: The PCL reconstruction surgery yielded statistacally significant results in all of clinical evaluation. In gait analysis, the average knee flexion angle increased during stance phase and decreased during the swing phase, but was not statistically significant and there were no significant difference between both sides of their knees overall. Conclusion: Since there was no statistically significant difference between the injured and uninjured sides as a result of the gait evaluation of the patients who had arthroscopic reconstruction surgery on their PCL injured knee and conformed to the rehabilitation program, systemic and strict rehabilitation ought to be important in the reconstruction surgery.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of bone-patellar tendon-bone(B-PTB) allograft with autograft B-PTB reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) according to the subjective and objective criteria. Materials and Methods : 42 patients were treated for acute rupture or chronic insufficiency of the ACL between March 1993 and June 1996. There were 18 autografts and 24 allografts for ACL reconstruction. At 2 years of follow-up after operation, autograft and allograft groups were compared based on subjective, objective criteria and Telos stress arthrometer. Results : The modified Feagin Scoring System revealed 16 patients$(88.9\%)$ with a satisfactory result by autografts, but 21 patients$(87.5\%)$ with a satisfactory result by allografts after 2-years follow-lip. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. ACL reconstruction with B-PTB allograft did not produce a significant functional deficit. But patellofemoral pain and crepitus were more frequent in the autografts$(33.3\%)$ than allografts$(8.3\%)$ (p<0.05). Conclusion : The ACL deficient knees treated with allografts for ACL reconstruction tended to be better than those reconstructed with autografts fur the reduction of patellofemoral crepitus and pain. B-PTB allograft provides an acceptable alternative to autograft tissue for reconstruction of the ACL.
