  • In this paper, we present two constructions of the attribute-based broadcast encryption(ABBE) algorithm. Attribute-based encryption(ABE) algorithm enables an access control mechanism over encrypted data by specifying access policies among private keys and ciphertexts. ABBE algorithm can be used to construct ABE algorithm with revocation mechanism. Revocation has a useful property that revocation can be done without affecting any non-revoked uers. The main difference between our algorithm and the classical ones derived from the complete subtree paradigm which is apt for military hierarchy. Our algorithm improve the efficiency from the previously best ABBE algorithm, in particular, our algorithm allows one to select or revoke users by sending ciphertext of constant size with respect to the number of attributes and by storing logarithm secret key size of the number of users. Therefore, our algorithm can be an option to applications where computation cost is a top priority and can be applied to military technologies in the near future.

  • Recently fuel cell is considered to be a new technology that can substitute the ICE(Internal Combustion Engine) as well as overcome environmental issues. In military applications, fuel cell has an unique advantages, which are quietness, namely, stealth. The environmental requirement such as shock and vibration in military application, however, is very severe comparing to civilian demand. Especially, the safety concerning hydrogen storage is the most important problem. Among the candidate methods to store hydrogen, the metal hydride storage is promising method owing to the storage mechanism of chemical absorption of hydrogen to metal hydrides. In this study, the new composition of Ti-Zr type metal hydride(A composition) was suggested and investigated to increase the hydrogen storage capacity. For comparison, the hydrogen charge-discharge properties were investigated with the commercialized Ti-Zr type metal hydride(B composition) using PCT(Pressure-Composition-Temperature) measurement. Also two hydrogen storage cylinders were loaded with each metal hydride and their hydrogen charging and discharging characteristics were investigated. As a result, it was found that the new Ti-Zr type metal hydride has a slightly higher hydrogen storage capacity compared to commercial Ti-Zr type metal hydride.

  • The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized communication and device operation, but it has also brought significant security challenges. IoT networks are structured into four levels: devices, networks, applications, and services, each with specific security considerations. Personal Area Networks (PANs), Local Area Networks (LANs), and Wide Area Networks (WANs) are the three types of IoT networks, each with unique security requirements. Communication protocols such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, commonly used in IoT networks, are susceptible to vulnerabilities and require additional security measures. Apart from physical security, authentication, encryption, software vulnerabilities, DoS attacks, data privacy, and supply chain security pose significant challenges. Ensuring the security of IoT devices and the data they exchange is crucial. This paper utilizes the Random Forest Algorithm from machine learning to detect anomalous data in IoT devices. The dataset consists of environmental data (temperature and humidity) collected from IoT sensors in Oman. The Random Forest Algorithm is implemented and trained using Python, and the accuracy and results of the model are discussed, demonstrating the effectiveness of Random Forest for detecting IoT device data anomalies.

  • 대한민국 육군은 우리 사회 최대 화두 중 하나인 지속적인 출산율 감소와 저출산 문제가 병력 부족으로 인한 안보 공백으로 이어질 것을 예측하고, 2010년 병역법을 개정하여 이전까지 입대에 제한을 두었던 '외관상 명백한 혼혈인'의 입대를 의무화했다. 그 결과 2011년에는 50여 명의 다문화 가족 자녀가 입대하였으며, 당시 병무청은 2020년이후 매년 8천 명 이상이 입대할 것으로 예상하였다. 이는 육군에 또 다른 도전을 야기한다. 서로 다른 언어, 종교, 식습관에 대한 이해와 존중이 결여될 경우 구성원들 간의 갈등이 발생할 수 있으며 이는 전투력 약화로 이어질 것이다. 이에 세계 강군의 다문화 적용 사례 연구를 통해 다문화에 대한 존중의 성공, 실패 역사와 현재 미(美) 육군의 다문화 존중 정책을 연구하여 우리 육군의 지향점을 고찰하고자 한다.

  • The use of nanoparticles as a delivery system for a specific antigen could solve many limitations of mucosal vaccine applications, such as low immunogenicity, or antigen protection and stabilization. In this study, we tested the ability of nasally administered chitosan nanoparticles loaded with glycoprotein B of murine cytomegalovirus to induce an immune response in an animal model. The choice of chitosan nanoparticle type was made by in vitro evaluation of sorption efficiency and antigen release. Three types of chitosan nanoparticles were prepared: crosslinked with tripolyphosphate, coated with hyaluronic acid, and in complex with polycaprolactone. The hydrodynamic size of the nanoparticles by dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, stability, loading efficiency, and release kinetics with ovalbumin were evaluated. Balb/c mice were immunized intranasally using the three-dose protocol with nanoparticles, gB, and adjuvants Poly(I:C) and CpG ODN. Subsequently, the humoral and cell-mediated antigen-specific immune response was determined. On the basis of the properties of the tested nanoparticles, the cross-linked nanoparticles were considered optimal for further investigation. The results show that nanoparticles with Poly(I:C) and with gB alone raised IgG antibody levels above the negative control. In the case of mucosal IgA, only gB alone weakly induced the production of IgA antibodies compared to saline-immunized mice. The number of activated cells increased slightly in mice immunized with nanoparticles and gB compared to those immunized with gB alone or to negative control. The results demonstrated that chitosan nanoparticles could have potential in the development of mucosal vaccines.

  • Recently, metamaterials attracted much attention because of the potential applications for superlens, cloaking and high precision sensors. We developed several dielectric metamaterials for enhancing antireflection or light trapping capability in solar energy harvesting devices. Colloidal lithography and electrochemical anodization process were employed to fabricate self-assembed nano- and microscale dielectric metamaterials in a simple and cost-effective manner. We improved broadband light absorption in c-Si, a-Si, and organic semiconductor layer by employing polystyrene (PS) islands integrated Si conical-frustum arrays, resonant PS nanosphere arrays, and diffusive alumina nanowire arrays, respectively. We also demonstrated thin metal coated alumina nanowire array which is utilized as an efficient light-to-heat conversion layer of solar steam generating devices. The scalable design and adaptable fabrication route to our light management nanostructures will be promising in applications of solar energy harvesting system. On the other hands, broadband invisible cloaks, which continuously work while elastically deforming, are developed using smart metamaterials made of photonic and elastic crystals. A self-adjustable, nearly lossless, and broadband (10-12GHz) smart meatamaterials have great potentials for applications in antenna system and military stealth technology.

  • LADAR systems can rapidly acquire 3D point clouds by sampling the target surfaces using laser pulses. Such point clouds are widely used for diverse applications such as DSM/DTM generation, forest biomass estimation, target detection, wire avoidance and so on. Many kinds of LADAR systems have been developed with their respective purposes and applications. Particularly, Geiger mode imaging LADAR systems are increasingly utilized since they are energy efficient thank to extremely sensitive detectors incorporated into the systems. The purpose of this research is the performance assessment of a Geiger mode imaging LADAR system based on simulation with the real system parameters. We thus developed a simulation method of such a LADAR system by modeling its geometric, radiometric, optic and electronic aspects. Based on the simulation, we performed the performance assessment of a newly designed system to derive the outlier ratio and false alarm rate expected during its operation in almost real environment with reasonable system parameters. The proposed simulation and performance assessment method will be effectively utilized for system design and optimization, and test data generation.

  • 위험관리는 최근 다양한 분야의 산업에 적용 가능한 매우 중요한 토픽이다. 본 연구에서는 기본적인 위험관리의 일반적인 방법론과 새로운 위험관리 평가의 방법론을 제시한다. 위험관리의 실제 적용에 있어서 재정, 보험산업 등의 분야에서는 이미 많은 현실적 방법론들이 개발되었다. 다양한 산업현장에서 발전된 많은 적용사례들이 있으나 여전히 위험관리는 어려운 부분이며, 두 가지 주요한 위험평가 방법론이 시스템 엔지니어링 분야에서 개선되고 발전되어왔다. 그중 하나는 본래의 위험평가의 기본개념을 바탕으로 하여 발전한 것이며 다른 하나는 소프트웨어 엔지니어링분야의 위험평가에서 비롯된 것이다. 규모가 크고 복잡한 시스템에서 효과적인 위험관리는 프로젝트의 최종 목적을 달성하는데 있어서 불확실성에 적절히 대처하여 총 개발비용을 줄이고 목표일정과 성능을 달성하는 효과를 가져온다.
