QKD(Quantum Key Distribution) is one of the protocols that can make two distant parties safely share secure keys against the threat of quantum computer. Generally, cryptographic applications which are connected to the QKD device have fixed roles as a transmitter and a receiver due to the race condition and complexity of implementation. Because the conventional QKD system is mainly applied to the link encryptor, there are no problems even if the roles of the cryptographic devices are fixed. We propose a new scheme of QKD system and protocol that is easy to extend to the QKD network by eliminating quantum key dependency between cryptographic device and QKD node. The secure keys which are generated by the TRNG(True Random Number Generator) are provided to the cryptographic applications instead of quantum keys. We design an architecture to transmit safely the secure keys using the inbound and outbound quantum keys which are shared between two nodes. In this scheme, since the dependency of shared quantum keys between two QKD nodes is eliminated, all cryptographic applicatons can be a master or a slave depending on who initiates the cryptographic communications.

This paper describes the efficient peer-to-peer migration method of Grid service agent on the mobile agent based P-Grid. The migration mechanism for transmitting service agent upon the service request is based on the peer's logic network topology. The network topologies that this system uses are organized as star topology, ring topology and tree topology, and agents are migrated by the master/slave method and serial/parallel method. The migration method of services is chosen based on the execution range and characteristic of the requested service. Also, the entire execution time of service is affected by the performance of peer that is a part of network topology, and the migration order, Therefore, the system monitors the performance of peers, and determines the migration priority based on analyzing and learning history. The system can reduce service execution time efficiently with decisions of migration method for service agent and priority of peers.

This paper proposes a universal system control strategy for voltage source converter (VSC) based high voltage direct current (HVDC) systems. The framework of the designed control strategy consists of five layer structures considering the topology and control characteristics of the VSC-HVDC system. The control commands sent from the topmost layer can be transmitted to the next layer based on the existing communication system. When the commands are sent to each substation, the following transmission of commands between the four lower layers are realized using the internal communication system while ignoring the communication delay. This hierarchical control strategy can be easily applied to any VSC-HVDC system with any topology. Furthermore, an integrated controller for each converter is designed and implemented considering all of the possible operating states. The modular-designed integrated controller makes it quite easy to extend its operating states if necessary, and it is available for any kind of VSC. A detailed model of a VSC-HVDC system containing a DC hub is built in the PSCAD/EMTDC environment. Simulation results based on three operating conditions (the start-up process, the voltage margin control method and the master-slave control method) demonstrate the flexibility and validity of the proposed control strategy.

We developed a PC-based 8-channel electrical stimulation system for transcutaneous functional electrical stimulation (FES), and applied it to FES exercise and paraplegic walking. The PC program consists of four parts: a database, a stimulation pattern generator, a stimulus parameter converter, and an exercise program. The stimulation pattern can be arbitrarily generated and edited by using the mouse on the PC screen, and the resulting stimulus parameters arc extracted from the recruitment curves, and transmitted to the 8-channel stimulator through the serial port. The stimulator has nine microprocessors: one master and eight slaves, Each channel is controlled by the slave microprocessor, and is operated independently. Clinical application of the system to a paraplegic patient showed significant increase in the knee extensor torque, the fatigue resistance, and the leg circumference, The patient can now walk about 50 meters for more than 2 minutes.

Cattle estrus detection system based on Internet of Things is designed and implemented by using Arduino pro-mini, gyroscope, acceleration sensor, bluetooth master and slave module. The implemented system measures cattle's moving and the measured data are transmitted to the computer connected to RX module by bluetooth TX module. They are plotted in 2-dimensional graph on the computer monitor and the number of transition at each sensor axis are calculated from the graph. The detected and gathered data from the system are analyzed by the proposed algorithm to decide which cows are in the estrus or not. The method to apply bluetooth scatternet is shown and the proposed system can be used to increase the success rate of artificial insemination in normal estrus by detecting the cow's behaviors such as the number of jumping. In this paper, the implemented cattle behavior detecting the system(TX module) are strapped on cattle's leg and it measures the cattle behaviors for determining where that a cattle is estrus or not by the proposed algorithm.

유량은 도섭법, 보트법, 횡측선법, 교량법 및 부자법 등 다양한 방법으로 측정되는데, 이들 측정방법 모두 많은 수의 관측자를 필요로 한다. 이들은 하천에 직접 들어가서 측정하거나, 인공구조물인 교량과 재방에서 측정되는데, 도섭법, 보트법, 횡측선법이 전자이며, 고수위 및 고유속으로 하천에 들어가지 못하는 경우에는 교량법 및 부자법을 사용하여 유량을 측정한다. 최근 지구 온난화로 따른 이상 기후가 빈번히 발생하고 있으며, 이로 인한 많은 피해가 발생하고 있어, 하천 수위, 유속 모니터링에 대한 중요성이 더 커지고 있다. 2022년 1월부터 시행 중인 「중대재해처벌법」으로 집중호우 및 일몰 이후에는 안전상의 문제로 유량측정이 어려운 상황으로 필요한 시기에 유량 데이터를 확보에 제약이 있다. 이에 관측자 없이도 유량을 측정할 수 있는 방법을 이용하여 중대 재해의 위험성을 해소하고자 하였다. 유량측정 방법으로 설치 회수가 용이한 비접촉 방식에서 영상표면유속측정 방식과 레이더(전자파)표면 유속측정 방식 중, 집중호우 및 태풍 발생 중 가시성이 확보되지 않아도 측정이 가능한 레이더(전자파) 표면유속계를 이용한 다측점 유량측정 방법을 개발하였다. 비접촉 다측점 유량측정시스템 Master 1대에 8대의 Slave를 연결할 수 있어 총 9개의 측선을 측정할 수 있게 개발하였다. 특히, 하천 및 수로 등의 표면 유속을 비접촉으로 측정하고 하천 단면을 이용하여 유량측정이 가능한 장비로 별도의 수중 및 수상 주조물 작업이 필요 없고 장비의 손상 및 유실 가능성이 거의 없고 역류 상태에서도 측정이 가능하다. 유속은 24GHz의 레이더 주파수를 송수신하여 도플러 변이를 이용하여 측정하였고, 수위는 80GHz의 레이더 주파수를 사용하여 왕복 시간을 거리로 환산하여 측정하였다. 유량은 각각의 유속계에 단면을 입력해 놓으면 유속분포법, 중간단면적법 및 지표유속법을 적용하여, 각각의 측선에 대한유량과 총 유량을 산출하였다. 그 결과, 기존 방식 대비 상당한 개선 효과를 확인하였고, 향후 환경부 등 중앙부처의 수문조사 사업에서 그 역할이 기대된다.

With the increase in satellite time series data, the utility of remote sensing data is growing. In the analysis of time series data, the relative positional accuracy between images has a significant impact on the results, making image registration essential for correction. In recent years, research on image registration has been increasing by applying deep learning, which outperforms existing image registration algorithms. To train deep learning-based registration models, a large number of image pairs are required. Additionally, creating a correlation map between the data of existing deep learning models and applying additional computations to extract registration points is inefficient. To overcome these drawbacks, this study developed a data augmentation technique for training image registration models and applied it to OffsetNet, a registration model that predicts the offset amount itself, to perform image registration for KOMSAT-2, -3, and -3A. The results of the model training showed that OffsetNet accurately predicted the offset amount for the test data, enabling effective registration of the master and slave images.

In this study, parallel processing codes of k-means clustering algorithm were developed and implemented in a PC-cluster for unsupervised classification of large satellite images. We implemented intra-node code using multicores of CPU (Central Processing Unit) based on OpenMP (Open Multi-Processing), inter-nodes code using a PC-cluster based on message passing interface, and hybrid code using both. The PC-cluster consists of one master node and eight slave nodes, and each node is equipped with eight multicores. Two operating systems, Microsoft Windows and Canonical Ubuntu, were installed in the PC-cluster in turn and tested to compare parallel processing performance. Two multispectral satellite images were tested, which are a medium-capacity LANDSAT 8 OLI (Operational Land Imager) image and a high-capacity Sentinel 2A image. To evaluate the performance of parallel processing, speedup and efficiency were measured. Overall, the speedup was over N / 2 and the efficiency was over 0.5. From the comparison of the two operating systems, the Ubuntu system showed two to three times faster performance. To confirm that the results of the sequential and parallel processing coincide with the other, the center value of each band and the number of classified pixels were compared, and result images were examined by pixel to pixel comparison. It was found that care should be taken to avoid false sharing of OpenMP in intra-node implementation. To process large satellite images in a PC-cluster, code and hardware should be designed to reduce performance degradation caused by file I / O. Also, it was found that performance can differ depending on the operating system installed in a PC-cluster.

This paper aims at testing the applicability of RFID (radio frequency identification) based link travel time estimation algorithm in urban street settings in Jeju island Korea. For this, we developed algorithm and compared link travel times derived from the RFID probe based algorithm with those from (already available) GPS based link travel time estimation algorithm and with the actual link travel times from survey. RFID readers are composed of master reader and slave reader and the participating passenger cars were supposed to be equipped with RFID tag inside the vehicle. The data were sent to traffic information center and we used those data in comparison. The algorithm produced link travel times in a successful manner and the accuracy of those link travel times was about 88%. For the same link segments, the accuracy of GPS based link travel times was 93%. The t-test showed that both RFID and GPS based link travel times were not different in accuracy from statistical point of view. The applicability of RFID was tested successfully and the algorithm proposed seemed to be used in similar urban settings. Some limits and future research agenda have also been presented.
