킬체인(Kill Chain)이 최근에 북한의 핵실험, 미사일 발사 등으로 인해 주목을 받고 있으며, 조기 구축의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 킬체인 구축을 구체화하기 위하여 센서와 타격무기가 효과적으로 작전을 지원할 수 있도록 한국형 킬체인 네트워크에 대하여 검토해야 한다. 특히, 산악지역 및 해양을 포함한 짧은 종심의 합동전장 환경에서 적 위협으로부터 공격 대응시간을 단축할 수 있는 적합한 표적정보 전달 네트워크가 필요하다. 현재 작전에서는 다양한 유 무선 통신체계를 이용하여 음성, 데이터, 이미지, 문자 등을 작전에 활용하고 있다. 그러므로 본 논문은 킬체인에서 적용될 수 있는 표적정보 전달 네트워크에 대하여 분석하는 것이다. 그리고 네트워크의 정책적 대안에 대한 확증을 위해 AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) 기법을 적용하여 킬체인에 적합한 표적정보 전달 네트워크를 식별하였다. 이를 통해 합동 전장 환경하에서 적용 가능한 킬체인 표적정보 전달 네트워크 및 구축방안을 제시하였다.

The correct and opportune decision of reengaging the intercepted target is required in order to enhance the engagement performance of the surface to air missile systems that has the ability to defense or attack against various targets at the same time. The engagement efficiency and success of these systems will be largely enhanced by assigning quickly its system resources to the intercepted target and minimizing the waste of system resources for the target which is not able to attack any more. The kill-assessment algorithm has to be able to evaluate automatically whether various targets intercepted by missiles are killed or not on the basis of the reasonable confidence level. The definition of kill assessment is discussed and the kill assessment algorithm is designed reliably by using Kalman filter and a probability theory. Finally its performance is evaluated and analyzed by the Monte Carlo simulation.

A stochastic fundamental duel with continous interfiring times is considered for including the kill effect of multiple hits and fixed duel time. Two alternatives, 'vital hit' and 'damage coefficient' approaches, are developed. Since a large quantity of ammunition is consumed when a sure kill is obtained through repetitive multiple hits, limitation of initial ammunition supply is included in the stochastic duel models with multiple hits and fixed duel time. General solutions are obtained and examples with negative exponential interfiring times and geometric ammunition supply are given.

Heartworm disease (HWD) in dogs is a life-threatening mosquito-borne disease resulting in right-sided congestive heart failure and inflammatory pulmonary disease. Due to complications from adulticidal therapy with melarsomine, slow kill protocol either with preventive dose of ivermectin or combined with doxycycline has been proposed for an alternative adultcidal therapy in dogs with HWD. Therefore, this study evaluated the clinical outcome of adultcidal therapy in dogs with class II stage of HWD after treating either American Heartworm Society (AHS) or slow kill protocol for 10 months. Clinical outcome after therapy was evaluated by clinical, radiographic and echocardiographic examination along with hematology before (D0) and after therapy (D300). Although clinical signs associated with HWD were all resolved after therapy in both groups, the infection was not cleared out 67% of dogs treated by slow kill protocol at the end of therapy. Furthermore, pulmonary arterial flow of acceleration time to ejection time ratio (AT/ET) and the right pulmonary artery distensibility index (RPADI) have been firstly used for detecting pulmonary hypertension in this study group. The pulmonary hypertension was more common in dogs with mild clinical signs, although tricuspid and pulmonary regurgitation were not detectable in most dogs in this study. Our study findings suggested that the slow kill protocol might not be efficacious enough to clear out HWD in dogs and more attention on the presence of pulmonary hypertension might be necessary for effective management of HWD in dogs.

In mid-April, 2000, hundreds of thousands of fish floated dead on the Chungnang River, one of the small branches of the Han River in Seoul. We examined the causes of the accident in detail, through analysis of monitorinq data from the Han River Monitoring Project, which employed the transplanted aquatic moss, Fontinalis antipyretica. This allowed investigation of another possible cause of the fish kill: release of trace metals into the river from industrial sources during the rainfall event. In addition, we aimed to verify the usefulness of aquatic mosses as bioindicators of the event. Water samples collected 48 h after the fish kill exhibited low pH and high Total-N and Total-p, indicating that acidic compounds rich in nitrogen and phosphorus might be a major contaminant. BOD and COD were also very high. On the whole, the conditions of the river water were degraded at that time. Distinct trends were not observed in the chlorophyll phaeophy-tinization quotient and photosynthesis rate of transplanted mosses. How-ever mosses sampled soon after the accident exhibited the lowest values for those variables (P < 0.01), suggesting that stress factors in the river were diluted out over time. Heavy metals with characteristics of industrial effluents (Cr, Pb, Zn, Fe, Cu, and Cd) increased (p ＜ 0.01), indicating that they were unlikely to be major causes of the accident.

Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge) is a traditional Korean medicine that is commonly used for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as edema, arthritis, hepatitis, and endangitis. The several extracts of danshen were tested for antimicrobial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated in clinic by broth microdilution method, the checkerboard, and time-kill methods to evaluate the synergistic effects of the combination of the extracts with antibiotics. The chloroform ($CHCl_3$) and n-hexane (HEX) extracts [minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), 0.0078-0.3125${\mu}g/mL$; minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), 0.019-0.625${\mu}g/mL$] were found to have strong antibacterial activity against MRSA. Additionally, when the $CHCl_3$ and HEX extracts were co-administered with ampicillin or oxacillin, a synergistic effect against MRSA was observed. Furthermore, a time-kill study evaluating the effects of the extracts against MRSA indicated that treatment with the $CHCl_3$ extract in combination with ampicillin or oxacillin produced rapid bactericidal activity. These results suggest that danshen extracts may have potently antimicrobial activity and thus, it can be a suitable phytotherapeutic agent for treating MRSA infections.

The negative impacts of roads on wildlife mortality have been well documented, and one of the most significant impact is wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVCs) in most countries throughout the world. While road impacts on wildlife are a truly global concern with a large socio-economic cost, few researches in Korea have been quantified road-kill occurrence on highways or identified extensively seasonal and geographic patterns of this phenomenon. Therefore, we analyzed highway mortality of wild mammals in Korea using database from five years of nation-wide data on WVCs, and estimated road-kill density by standardizing on per km and per $10^3$ vehicle basis. During 2008 through 2012, a total of 10,940 wildlifes were reported killed on highways, with an average of 2,188 cases per year. There were 2,376 road-kills in 2012, and this equates to 0.01 road-kills per km per week or one road-kill every 88.5 km per week. For time of day, road-kills occurred more frequently in the early morning (05:00-08:00, 38.3%), and day of week did not have a significant influence in any individual year. The road-kill was highest in the spring (March- May, 33.0%) and least in the winter (December-February, 16.1%), and the most frequently killed native species were of Korean water deer (79.7%), raccoon dog (12.7%), Korean hare (3.1%), and leopard cat (1.2%). The overall standardized kill-rate (number/10 km/1,000 vehicles/month) in 2012 was 0.057 with highest on Dangjinyeongdeok highway (0.476), followed by Yeongdong (0.274), Sooncheonwanju (0.233), Iksanpohang (0.187), and Joongang (0.150). This study highlights that the frequency of WVCs are prevalent throughout the highways in Korea. Further work is needed to determine whether such a level of mortality is sustainable from an ecological point of view.

The effects of intraperitoneal injection of cephradine in a dose of 75 mg/kg and netilmicin in dose of 50 mg/kg and their combination on creatinine and urea serum levels of rabbits were studied as well as the antipseudomonal activity against three multiresistant clinicial isolates. The antibacterial activity was investigated by two methods: Checkerboard titration method and time-kill studies. Finally, the antibacterial activity of the sera obtained from the rabbits receiving the used drugs in the previous regimen was studied using time-kill study method against Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates. Results obtained from this study indicated that both creatinine and urea serum levels of the rabbits receiving both drugs were not significantly different from those of the rabbits receiving either cephradine or netilmicin alone. At the same time the in vitro antibactrial activity (either of the prepared solutions of the used drugs and their combination or of the sera obtained from the rabbits receiving these drugs as mentioned before) showed a synergistic effect against the tested strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The time-kill curves of LB20304, a novel fluoroquinolone that has potent antibacterial activity against gram-positve and gram-negative bacteria, were calculated at the concentrations of 1/4-, 1/2-, 1-, 2- and 4-times the MIC against Staphylococcus aureus 77, Escherichia coli 3739E, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1912E. The bactericidal activity of LB20304 for these strains was very rapid and comparable to that of ciprofloxacin. LB20304 produced a decrease in the $log_10$ CFU per milliliter of${\geq}$3 within 2 h at 4-times the MIC for all strains and consitently prevented regrowth of bacteria after 24 h of incubation. The MBCs (Minimal Bactericidal Concentration) of LB20304 against test organisms were equal to or at most four-times higher than the MICs.

사이버 킬체인 (Cyber Kill Chain)은 기존의 군사적 용어인 킬체인 (Kill Chain)에서 유래한다. 킬체인은 "파괴를 요구하는 군사 표적을 탐지하는 것에서 파괴하는 것까지의 연속적이고 순환적인 처리 과정 또는 그것을 몇 개의 구분된 행위로 나눈 것"을 의미한다. 킬체인은 핵무기나 미사일과 같이 위치가 변화하고 위험성이 커서 즉각적인 대응을 요구하는 시한성 긴급 표적을 효과적으로 다루기 위해 기존의 작전절차를 발전시켰으며, 방어자가 파괴를 필요로 하는 핵무기나 미사일이 타격점에 도달하기까지의 여러 과정 중 한 단계라도 제 기능을 발휘하지 못하게 하여 공격자가 의도한 목적을 달성하지 못하도록 무력화하는 군사적 개념에서 시작되었다고 볼 수 있다. 이러한 사이버 킬체인의 기본 개념은 사이버 공격자가 수행하는 공격은 각 단계로 구성되어 있으며, 사이버 공격자는 각 단계가 성공적으로 수행되어야 공격 목표를 달성할 수 있으며, 이를 방어 관점에서 보았을 때 각 단계에서 세부적으로 대응 절차를 마련하여 대응하면 공격의 체인 (chain)이 끊어지므로 공격자의 공격을 무력화하거나 지연시킬 수 있다고 본다. 또한 공격 관점에서 보았을 때 각 단계에서 구체적인 대응 절차를 마련하면 공격의 체인이 성공하여 공격대상을 무력화시킬수 있다. 사이버 지휘통제체계는 방어와 공격에 모두 적용되는 체계로 방어시 적의 킬체인을 무력화하기 위한 방어 대응 방안을 제시하여야 하며 공격시에는 적을 무력화하기 위한 각 단계별 구체적인 절차를 제시하여야 한다. 따라서 본 논문은 사이버 지휘통제체계의 방어 및 공격 관점의 사이버 킬체인 모델을 제안하였으며, 또한 방어 측면의 사이버 지휘통제제계의 위협 분류/분석/예측 프레임워크를 제시하였다.
