전력 공격은 암호화 연산 과정 중 발생하는 소비 전력의 파형을 측정하여 비밀 정보를 알아내는 공격 방식이다. 이러한 전력 공격에 대한 취약성을 막기 위하여 message blinding, exponent blinding과 같은 기법들이 적용되어 왔다. 본 고에서는 $ECC^{[1]}$암호화 연산 과정에서, r이 임의의 정수일 때, dP=(d-r)P+rP인 관계를 이용하는 exponent blinding기법$^{[2]}$에 대하여 언급하고, 위 기법을 전력 공격의 대응책으로 적용 시 적절히 구현되지 않으면 power attack에 대하여 매우 취약하다는 것을 보인다.

Objectives: To evaluate the methodological quality of Korean Acupuncture Clinical trials Methods : Two independent researchers reviewed 12 protocols of Acupuncture clinical trials which were conducted in Korea 2006. Also, Survey Principal Investigator of those was conducted. We compare the results of protocol review with investigator reponses of actual practice. Quality assessment consisted of 5 items including random sequence generation, randomization method, allocation concealment, subject blinding, assessor blinding. Results : Randomization was performed using the proper procedure to insure that treatment assignment is unbiased and concealed from subjects in all clinical trials, According to protocols, 6(50%) of 12 clinical trials used computer-generated random numbers, 6(50%) remaining trials didn't describe the randomization method. Also all trials used appropriate randomization methods on the basis of the survey results: 8 trials used computer-generated random number, 2 used random table. Of 7 protocols in which allocation concealment was stated, 5(71%) reported appropriate method (Calling a central office or statisticians, Sealed opaque envelopes). However according to survey, 5(42%) of 12 trials used inappropriate allocation concealment (Keeping a master randomization list and referring to when subject entered the trial). In addition, the result of protocol review and survey response was not coincident in 5(42%) trials. Subject blinding was conducted in all except 1 clinical trials. Although 11(92%) of 12 trials were conducted using assessor blinding in actual practice, only 7(58%) reported that in protocol. Conclusion : Although randomization and blinding were conducted adequately, allocation concealment was used inadequately, Not only appropriate allocation concealment, but also every quality assessment item including randomization, blinding should be stated in more detail in protocol.

Objective : Acupuncture (from the Latin acus, "needle," and pungere, "to prick") is a technique of inserting and manipulating fine needles at specific points on the body. As a placebo acupuncture needle device was developed based on the visual impact of needling, it has been raised that it is useful only when acupuncture points and needling are visible to subjects. To examine the visual factor of the placebo acupuncture, the present study was aimed to compare the blinding index of the verum and placebo acupuncture between masked and unmasked situation. Methods : Thirty-six patients were randomly alloted to be stimulated with a verum or placebo acupuncture in a cross-over design. They were asked to guess a right answer whether they were stimulated with the verum or placebo acupuncture at LI4 in an unmasked or masked situation. The penetrating, pain, and deqi sensations were also measured after the stimulation using modified visual analogue scale. Results : The correct answer rate of the placebo acupuncture was 22.2% and 16.7% in an unmasked and masked situation, respectively (P>0.767). The blinding index of the placebo acupuncture was -0.56 (95%CI -0.84 to -0.27) and -0.67 (95%CI -0.91 to -0.42) in an unmasked and masked situation, respectively. The penetrating and deqi sensation of the verum acupuncture were significantly higher than those of the placebo acupuncture in both unmasked and masked situation. The pain sensation of the verum acupuncture was significantly higher than that of the placebo acupuncture in masked situation, but not in unmasked situation. Conclusion : Blinding of the placebo acupuncture was successful both in the unmasked and masked situation. These finding indicate that visual factor might not play a critical role in blinding of the placebo needle. We suggest that placebo needle would be also useful in a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan even when the subject could not see the placebo needle.

Recently power attacks on RSA cryptosystems have been widely investigated, and various countermeasures have been proposed. One of the most efficient and secure countermeasures is the message blinding method, which includes the RSA derivative of the binary-with-random-initial-point algorithm on elliptical curve cryptosystems. It is known to be secure against first-order differential power analysis (DPA); however, it is susceptible to second-order DPA. Although second-order DPA gives some solutions for defeating message blinding methods, this kind of attack still has the practical difficulty of how to find the points of interest, that is, the exact moments when intermediate values are being manipulated. In this paper, we propose a practical second-order correlation power analysis (SOCPA). Our attack can easily find points of interest in a power trace and find the private key with a small number of power traces. We also propose an efficient countermeasure which is secure against the proposed SOCPA as well as existing power attacks.

Objectives : This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Bee Venom acupuncture therapy on sprain of C-spine by randomized controlled double blinding method. Methods : A randomized double blinding study of bee venom acupuncture therapy was conducted on sprain of C-spine. We divided sprain of C-spine patient into 2 groups: one group with both acupuncture and saline acupuncture therapy, and another group with both acupuncture and bee venom acupuncture therapy. To estimate the efficacy of treatment that applied for two groups, we used visual analog scale(VAS) and neck disability index(NDI). We compared the VAS and NDI score of two groups statistically. Results : STZ induced increase of serum creatinine, BUN and albumin secretion were lowered by AD-1 treatment.

While the elliptic curve cryptosystem (ECC) is getting more popular in securing numerous systems, implementations without consideration for side-channel attacks are susceptible to critical information leakage. This paper proposes new power attack countermeasures for ECC over Koblitz curves. Based on some special properties of Koblitz curves, the proposed methods randomize the involved elliptic curve points in a highly regular manner so the resulting scalar multiplication algorithms can defeat the simple power analysis attack and the differential power analysis attack simultaneously. Compared with the previous countermeasures, the new methods are also noticeable in terms of computational cost.

objectives : This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Bee Venom acupuncture therapy for sprain of L -spine. Methods : A randomized double blinding study of bee venom acupuncture therapy was conducted on sprain of L-spine. We divided sprain of L-spine patient into 2 groups: one group with both acupuncture and saline acupuncture therapy, and another group with both acupuncture and bee venom acupuncture therapy. To estimate the efficacy of treatment that applied for two groups, we used visual analog scale(VAS) and oswestry disability index(ODI). We compared the VAS and ODI score of two groups statistically. Results : 1. As a result of evaluation by using visual analog scale(VAS) and oswestry disability index(ODI), treatment score after 5 days was marked more higher than score before treatment and treatment score after 10 days treatment was more higher than treatment score after 5 days on each groups. 2. After 10 days treatment, acupuncture and bee venom acupuncture therapy group had significant result on visual analog scale(VAS) and oswestry disability index(ODI) compared with acupuncture and saline acupuncture therapy group. Conclusion : Bee Venom acupuncture therapy can be used with acupuncture therapy for highly effective treatment for sprain of L-spine.

현재 국내 화력발전소에서 운영중인 일부 배연탈황설비는 건설비 절감을 위해 설계시 여유율을 축소하여 비정상상태에 대응이 어렵고, 노후화 등으로 탈황효율이 저하하는 등 일부의 문제점이 제기되고 있다. 이러한 문제점에 대응하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 흡수액의 pH, 입구 $SO_2$ 농도, 운전 단수 변경 및 liquid distribution ring (LDR) 등의 탈황설비의 운전 조건 변경에 따른 탈황율을 검토하였으며, sulfite 이온 및 Al/Fx 이온이 석회석의 blinding에 미치는 효과에 대해 실험하였다. 흡수액 재순환 펌프를 3대 운전하였을 때는 2대 운전했을 때와 비교하여 탈황율이 최대 12% 향상하였고, LDR을 설치함에 따라 탈황효은 약 2~7%가 향상하였다. Limestone blinding 현상이 발생한 흡수액에 dibasic acid (DBA)를 500, 1,000 ppm 주입하였을 때 흡수액 용존산소가 0.5 ppm 이상 증가하며, limestone blinding 현상을 완화하였다. 흡수액 중에 $Al^{3+}$, F- 이온이 공존한 경우 석회석 용해속도는 20% 감소하였다.
