The ECQV(Elliptic Curve Qu-Vanstone) is a implicit certificate scheme based on ECC(Elliptic Curve Cryptography). Implicit certificates are smaller and faster than a traditional explicit certificate. Therefore, it can be used in a memory or bandwidth constraint communication environments. Also, the butterfly key expansion algorithm is a method to issue many certificates by using only one public key. In this study, by applying the butterfly key expansion algorithm to ECQV, we suggest a new useful issuing certificate method that can be used in vehicular communication environments.

In order to control multi-zone temperatures, a multi-type air-conditioning system may be used. In this study, control algorithms for the compressor and the electronic expansion valve of a multi-type air-conditioning system were developed by using fuzzy logics. The compressor control algorithm was composed of a compressor pressure setpoint algorithm, a compressor pressure setpoint reset algorithm, and a compressor frequency setpoint algorithm. The electronic expansion valve control algorithm was composed of an indoor temperature control algorithm, and a superheat control algorithm. These algorithms were applied to a multi-type air-conditioning system. Test showed good results for the control of a multi-type air-conditioning system.

Usual practice of the transformation of a B-spline curve into a set of piecewise polynomial curves in a power form is done by either a knot refinement followed by basis conversions or applying a Taylor expansion on the B-spline curve for each knot span. Presented in this paper is a new algorithm, called a direct expansion algorithm, for the problem. The algorithm first locates the coefficients of all the linear terms that make up the basis functions in a knot span, and then the algorithm directly obtains the power form representation of basis functions by expanding the summation of products of appropriate linear terms. Then, a polynomial segment of a knot span can be easily obtained by the summation of products of the basis functions within the knot span with corresponding control points. Repeating this operation for each knot span, all of the polynomials of the B-spline curve can be transformed into a power form. The algorithm has been applied to both static and dynamic curves. It turns out that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms for the conversion for both types of curves. Especially, the proposed algorithm shows significantly fast performance for the dynamic curves.

Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in the fields of video surveillance and mobile object tracking. This paper proposes a mobile object tracking algorithm. First, several parameters such as object window, object area, and expansion-contraction (E-C) parameter are defined. Then, a modified E-C algorithm for multiple-object tracking is presented. The proposed algorithm tracks moving objects by expansion and contraction of the object window. In addition, it includes methods for updating the background image and avoiding occlusion of the target image. The validity of the proposed algorithm is verified experimentally. For example, the first scenario traces the path of two people walking in opposite directions in a hallway, whereas the second one is conducted to track three people in a group of four walkers.

To solve the problem of insufficient recognition of key nodes in the existing software defect detection process, this paper proposes a key node recognition algorithm based on node expansion degree and improved K-shell position, shortened as SDD_KNR. Firstly, the calculation formula of node expansion degree is designed to improve the degree that can measure the local defect propagation capability of nodes in the software network. Secondly, the concept of improved K-shell position of node is proposed to obtain the improved K-shell position of each node. Finally, the measurement of node defect propagation capability is defined, and the key node recognition algorithm is designed to identify the key function nodes with large defect impact range in the process of software defect detection. Using real software systems such as Nano, Cflow and Tar to design three sets of experiments. The corresponding directed weighted software function invoke networks are built to simulate intentional attack and defect source infection. The proposed SDD_KNR algorithm is compared with the BC algorithm, K-shell algorithm, KNMWSG algorithm and NMNC algorithm. The changing trend of network efficiency and the strength of node propagation force are analyzed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed SDD_KNR algorithm.

This paper proposes an efficient evolutionary programming algorithm for solving a generation expansion planning(GEP) problem known as a highly-nonlinear dynamic problem. Evolutionary programming(EP) is an optimization algorithm based on the simulated evolution (mutation, competition and selection). In this paper, new algorithm is presented to enhance the efficiency of the EP algorithm for solving the GEP problem. By a domain mapping procedure, yearly cumulative capacity vectors are transformed into one dummy vector, whose change can yield a kind of trend in the cost value. To validate the proposed approach, this algorithm is tested on two cases of expansion planning problems. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can provide successful results within a resonable computational time compared with conventional EP and dynamic programming.

The appropriate maintenance of highway roads is critical for the safe operation of road networks and conserves maintenance costs. Multiple methods have been developed to investigate the surface of roads for various types of cracks and potholes, among other damage. Like road surface damage, the condition of expansion joints in concrete pavement is important to avoid unexpected hazardous situations. Thus, in this study, a new system is proposed for autonomous expansion joint monitoring using a vision-based system. The system consists of the following three key parts: (1) a camera-mounted vehicle, (2) indication marks on the expansion joints, and (3) a deep learning-based automatic evaluation algorithm. With paired marks indicating the expansion joints in a concrete pavement, they can be automatically detected. An inspection vehicle is equipped with an action camera that acquires images of the expansion joints in the road. You Only Look Once (YOLO) automatically detects the expansion joints with indication marks, which has a performance accuracy of 95%. The width of the detected expansion joint is calculated using an image processing algorithm. Based on the calculated width, the expansion joint is classified into the following two types: normal and dangerous. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed system is very efficient in terms of speed and accuracy.

Voronoi diagrams have been known for numerous important applications in science and engineering including CAD/CAM. Especially, the Voronoi diagram for 3D spheres has been known as very useful tool to analyze spatial structural properties of molecules or materials modeled by a set of spherical atoms. In this paper, we present two algorithms, the edge-tracing algorithm and the region-expansion algorithm, for constructing the Voronoi diagram of 3D spheres and applications to protein structure analysis. The basic scheme of the edge-tracing algorithm is to follow Voronoi edges until the construction is completed in O(mn) time in the worst-case, where m and n are the numbers of edges and spheres, respectively. On the other hand, the region-expansion algorithm constructs the desired Voronoi diagram by expanding Voronoi regions for one sphere after another via a series of topology operations, starting from the ordinary Voronoi diagram for the centers of spheres. It turns out that the region-expansion algorithm also has the worst-case time complexity of O(mn). The Voronoi diagram for 3D spheres can play key roles in various analyses of protein structures such as the pocket recognition, molecular surface construction, and protein-protein interaction interface construction.

A novel integrated optimization method based on the Generalized Bender’s Decomposition (GBD) is proposed to combine both generation and transmission expansion problems. Most of existing researches on the integrated expansion planning based on the GBD theory incorporate DC power flow model to guarantee the convergence and improve the computation time. Inherently the GBD algorithm based on DC power flow model cannot consider variables and constraints related bus voltages and reactive power. In this paper, an integrated optimization method using the GBD algorithm based on a linearized AC power flow model is proposed to resolve aforementioned drawback. The proposed method has been successfully applied to Garver’s six-bus system and the IEEE 30-bus system which are frequently used power systems for transmission expansion planning studies.
