In this paper, we present robust and secure metering scheme to measure the number of interactions between clients and servers in the web, especially the web advertising. In most cases the web advertising is consists of advertisers, clients, servers, and an audit agency. The metering scheme should always be secure against fraud attempts by servers which maliciously try to inate the number of their visits and against clients that attempt to disrupt the metering process. We propose robust and secure metering scheme based on cryptographic techniques. By analyzing the proposed scheme we show that our scheme is more robust and secure than the previous schemes [1,2,4,5].

Metering scheme is composed of servers, clients, and an audit agency who collects the information for the clients which have been processed by servers. Although many efficient and secure metering schemes have been proposed in the literature, they do not consider the client privacy issue. To mitigate this limitation of the related work, we propose a metering scheme to protect the privacy of clients in internet. More specifically, we apply RSA based blind signature to the interaction between client and audit agency. If a client spends metering information to the server more than twice, the identity of the client is revealed by the server or audit agency.

In this paper, we consider a secure and efficient metering scheme to measure the interaction between clients and servers in interned advertising. In most cases internet advertising is composed of clients, servers, and an audit agency who collects a metering information about the number of clients that were served by each server. The metering scheme should always be secure against fraud attempts by servers which maliciously try to inflate the number of their clients and against clients that attempt to disrupt the metering process. So we suggest secure and efficient metering schemes, based on some cryptographic techniques, which are also very accurate and robust.

In this paper we propose a secure and an efficient metering scheme for measuring the usage and the popularity of web pages. The proposed scheme is based on the cryptographic secure hash functions. Since the metering schemes based on cryptographic technology provides security, efficiency, accuracy and anonymity comparing to the existing metering schemes in WWW, they have the advantages that are secure against attempts by servers who inflate the number of clients and against attempt of collaboration of severs and clients.

A new concept of 22.9kV class revenue metering system based on the optical sensing technique was designed and implemented. This paper reports on the performance of a 22.9kV class three phase optical current/voltage metering scheme and three tariff metering system. This optoelectronic system was designed and developed to advance the state of the art in revenue metering. This paper deals with the characteristics of designed optical CPT (Current and Potential Transformer) and optoelectronic demand meter. The extensive field evaluation of the developed system with the existing oil filled transformer and solid state metering pair is undertaking. Upto now the operation of the optical revenue metering system under the field condition compares favorably with the existing system.

Given the rapidly increasing market penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems in many fields, including construction and housing, the effective maintenance of PV systems through remote monitoring at the panel level has attracted attention to quickly detect faults that cause reductions in yearly PV energy production, and which can reduce the whole-life cost. A key point of PV monitoring at the panel level is cost-effectiveness, as the installation of the massive PV panels that comprise PV systems is showing rapid growth in the market. This paper proposes an implementation method that involves the use of a panel-level wireless PV monitoring module (WPMM), and which assesses the cost-effectiveness of this approach. To maximize the cost-effectiveness, the designed WPMM uses a voltage-divider scheme for voltage metering and a shunt-resistor scheme for current metering. In addition, the proposed method offsets the effect of element errors by extracting calibration parameters. Furthermore, a design method is presented for portable and user-friendly PV monitoring, and demonstration results using a commercial 30-kW PV system are described.

Generally, the flow hunting is observed in almost all of the orifice meters but the intensity of the flow hunting is different at each metering system. So, we were getting some Questions as follows; why such a difference occurs and whether it influence to metering error rate or not. To investigate the flow hunting characteristics, we are trying to examine the flow characteristics around the orifice meter when the transient flow or pressure is generated at after the PCV(Pressure Control Valve) by 3D CFD method. And we have compared numerical results with experimental results at M - PCV station in order to clarify the relations with both the metering-pipeline diameter and flow rate. Finally, we can show some major factors influencing to the flow hunting and propose some correcting scheme of the flow hunting equation.

A smart grid is a next-generation power grid that can improve energy efficiency by applying information and communication technology to the general power grid. The smart grid makes it possible to exchange information about electricity production and consumption between electricity providers and consumers in real-time. Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is the core technology of the smart grid. The AMI provides two-way communication by installing a modem in an existing digital meter and typically include smart meters, data collection units, and meter data management systems. Because the AMI requires data collection units to control multiple smart meters, it is essential to ensure network availability under heavy network loads. If the load on the work done by the data collection unit is high, it is necessary to allocation new data collection units to ensure availability and improve energy efficiency. In this paper, we discuss the allocation scheme of data collection units for the energy efficiency of the AMI.

Electronic watt hour meters(WHM) for high pressure running in domestic were installed to the digital type meter and ones for low pressure are expected to complete within several years. Domestic power metering technology is being beyond a simple framework with an electronic type and is rapidly evolving to intelligent smart metering systems in conjunction with promotion of a national smart grid project. Major policy outlook of the world's major power company regarding Intelligent metering is the application of the fare structure diversification and is the improvement of level of service to customers. In addition, electric power companies should focus on the cost reduction and the improvement of management efficiency through an efficient operation of distribution facility. In this paper, we are about to make an observation of the additional services technology development trend of the overseas smart meter and to have a view of value-added services(VAS) system of smart meter suitable for the domestic environment based on the technology development of VAS utilizing electronic watt hour meter performed by recent research projects.

In this study, a scheme of ramp metering that uses Off-ramp Exit Percentage instead of the O/D table required for systems of integrated control of ramps at the target freeway segment is presented. The segment from Gyeyang IC to Jangsu IC on the Seoul Outer Ring Expressway was selected for the study because the segment frequently shows large volume of traffic on the short distance between the two ICs requiring an integrated on-ramp control by taking the traffic situation on an entire expressway into account despite an unavailability of O/D data. Thus the information of Off-ramp Exit Percentage at each IC were collected instead of securing the O/D table through actual survey, and the congestion on the segment was analyzed to identify the validity of the use of off-ramp traffic instead of O/D data. In addition, the scheme of ramp metering that exploits the off-ramp traffic information was prepared through simulations conducted in a way supporting the traffic control for respective access roads thereof by taking traffic situations and queues on each ramp into account. The results obtained from the simulation analyses revealed an improved level of travel speed and traffic volume on the main line and validated the use of off-ramp traffic instead of the O/D table for the ramp metering.
